So I waited quite a while. Really I held myself back for quite a while now before bitching… So finally Suna no Oshiro single came out which is one of the better ending themes of this season. Anyways looking at differen fansubs made me go FFFFFFF because they clearly suck at writing out the lyrics. Here a little comparison of who fails hardest:
Note: IIRC shokudan is using the exact same (fail) lyrics as mishit and powah so I’m not putting them to save space. Read the rest of this entry »

It reminds me of that fucking mess at Lorna Owen’s house. Right?
When somebody trimmed the trees and didn’t bother to clean it up.
So, I’m thinking… Trim the trees… Trim trimmer… Maybe there’s a connection!

Quinn: Okay…

So I go through every fucking photo of every fucking crime scene. And guess what I found out.

Quinn: Trimmed trees?

No, I didn’t find shit!

Deb, you fucking own! She’s the best fucking character in Dexter without a doubt. The excessive usage of the fuck word and her usual trash talk makes her better than most of the homo-side characters. Also getting caught while fucking in the Ice Truck Killer Arc by Dexter was an even bigger plus.

Now if they would only air a House special tomorrow like airing two episodes at once to make up for next week… That would literally own.

What the fuck JC STAFF. No, seriously. Could Toaru Majutsu no Index epi 6 suck even harder? I don’t think so. Seriously was her so super bad-ass attack just a laser beam? Come on guys try harder. Well, I didn’t read the manga but I’m pretty sure it sucks equally.  But hey, as the animator studio you can take liberties like GONZO took with Bokurano. It wouldn’t have hurt to add some more action. All Index did was staying there shooting a laser. On top of that, literally like a puppet. She just fell down like a domino when the sword chick took the mat below her feet. Oh well, one show less to keep up this season. Sadly the coming anime season doesn’t have anything promising either. The new Hajime no Ippo seems to be the only decent show so far.

Well, I could have done something more productive like translating anime, finishing the translation of Heureka chapter 2 (it is really kick ass) or translate the last chapter of Satanister volume 1. But no, I got addicted to Galileo.

Our protagonist #1 is the guy that makes some Atobe pose when calculating some stuff a la Numb3rs style (yep, they stole imitated that “calculation sequence” from Numb3rs). Protagonist #2 is some partially annoying newbie police officer chick who asks our physics professor for help to solve cases.

And no, it’s not so awesome that it crucifies me to my seat. It’s just fun to watch. And the acting is still shitty but entertaining nevertheless. Also the tag line 嘘を突く 謎を解く (see through lies, unveil mysteries) is pretty misleading. Good job on tricking me, though.

Note to self: create some anime calendar to keep track of what I’m watching.

Yes, fuck this shit. No House! And I’m quite pissed about that. Why the hell did they air a stupid rerun of the liar family episode anyways… So I thought I would go with some Japanese TV-drama instead. I have no idea where I stumbled upon Galileo, but the story sounded pretty promising. Being the big sucker for murder mystery I went ahead and watched episode. And once again I had to witness the shitty acting of the Japanese. So far I haven’t seen a single Japanese movie with good acting. Seriously, go and learn stuff from Hollywood movies. Guess I’ll give it a one or two episodes before dropping it completely as I’ve got nothing better to watch at the moment.

Well, I’m no big fan of Shintani Ryoko. And this song sucks just like most of her songs (and the second track Ironical Star sucks even harder). Evidently, I’ve got nothing better to do than transcribe lyrics while sitting at home sneezing all the time orz.

Lyrics:

夢みたいな夢を見てる
そんな日々は廻っていく
round and round メリーゴーランド
like round and round メリーゴーランド
どんなことがあっても
君がいてくれるなら大丈夫
I am happy in this life
but are you there? I can’t see you

今までのこと
記憶と供に通りすぎていく
その中に君は確かに存在しているのに
思い出そうとする感覚抽象的になる映像
追いかけようとする度
君がかすんでく

オルゴールの音色
聴こえた気がしたんだ
切ない感情を乗せ
君の姿が見えないよ
今夜は月がまぶしすぎて

君は雲を掴むような存在
でいつも僕の腕すり抜け
他のどこかを見つめてる
tell me why is that

現実が僕のどこかで一人歩きしていって
ピエロのふりをしていたことに気持いたんだ
もしかして本当の君はここにはいないの?
この声が聞こえたなら
please answer me

悲しまないでね
私はあなたのための
場所を作っているの
月が照らすオルゴール
切ない想い忘れさせるから

ありがとう 分かったよ
綺麗たと思った空の一部始終が
君の作り出したものだったとしても、
僕はそれでいいよってそう思うから

今日も素敵な月を
君に贈れてますか
私はいつでもここで見てるから
オルゴールの中の君へ捧ぐ

僕はここで生きてる
箱庭を彩った君の音を感じて
ひとつだけ伝わるなら
「この世界を今愛してるよ」
聞こえますか

Just a quick status analysis.

Speaking from my own experience, not everyone has mastered the art of playing eroge. While I don’t suck as hard as Satou from NHK! ni Youkoso used to be, I still cannot really get into eroge or visual novels. It has been a week or a bit longer since I started playing Chäos;Head, but I gave up on that pretty quickly (as I kind of expected). So, next I picked up the mystery/murder visual novel, Umineko no Naku Koro ni. Playing the first installment “Legend of the Golden Witch” that came out quite some time ago I was determined to finish it. However… I already stalled it (kind of) where the old geezer refuses coming down to the lunch. In other words still at the beginning. Without even seeing a single dead body or someone go missing. Well of course you kind of lose motivation if nothing happens and they talk and talk and talk about… should I say irrelevant stuff or minor stuff… Well nothing important, that’s for sure. While I’m not really a fast reader, after playing approximately 5 hours and not seeing a single body is quite a let down. Some guy on Animesucky forums claimed that the game could be finished within a day. He has no fucking clue. In fact, I guess he ctrl’ed through the game.

On the bright side, I finished couple of short visual novels mostly localized by insani. Perhaps I should replay them in Japanese, though. After going “WHAT THE FUCK THERE IS NO FUCKING WAY THE TEXT IS THAT EMBELLISHED,” and a little reverse engineering I found out that insani tends to write their own stories with the pictures provided by the game. Well, I’ll admit the insani version sounds a bazillion times better than the original Japanese work. However as I may disagree with Agi, a translator’s job is to give the reader the same experience the Japanese (or in which language the text is) has. In my opinion, the translator’s job is to stay invisible, and not write their own stories with a little help of the elements provided by the original author.

Before I go more off topic I’ll be moving to eroge now. I seem to do better at playing eroge (I wonder why now). While my track record isn’t astonishing, I finished quite a few titles. Luckily there is VNDB to keep track of stuff. Even though the list is a little incomplete, that’s pretty much everything I played. You can see the good titles with a vote 8 or higher. Not to mention Gekkou no Carnevale is instant win. I remember dedicating my three weeks to finish it and it was worth every single second.

The latest eroge I finished months (or a year(?)) ago is 凌母 (Ryoubo) -Maternity Insult-. Awesome title, huh? Yep. Well the story is nothing ground breaking. Kid rejects his stepmother and seeks comfort at some other chicks. Ero content below.

見上げれば星が落ち
明けの空深淵の
黒に染められ嘆く声
耳を塞いでも響く音
閉じこもる光たち
黒い街彷徨い
瞳の中に宿る色
オニキスのように漆黒を纏う
裾を翻し踊れ舞い踊れ
熱に浮かされたタランテラよ
軋む皮靴は足を蝕んで
這いずる常闇へ毀れ消える
裾を翻し走れ駆け上がれ
とぐろ巻く黒の螺旋階段
昇れど昇れど闇は果てなく
それでも止まない追慕の記憶
光を求めて
ただ駆け抜ける闇夜を

Full size, do fucking want!

ilifin agrees, the joint collaboration song of Kugimiya Rie, Horie Yui and Kitamura Eri-Karakuri- from Toradora OP single fucking chowns. The lyrics make less than zero sense but it’s darn addicting. Here the lyrics Inb4jap blogs (I actually just wanted to copy paste but they were lazy with putting up this song on their blog :/)

Lyrics:

ワンナウット!

カラカラ回る カラマワリ
繰り出す魔球で フォアボール
クルクル回る クリカエシ
出されたサインは 見送り

からから回る カラマワリ
諦めていたら フェアボール
クルクル回る クリカエシ
私のサインを 見てよ!

スキ 過ぎる ホント マジで ヤバイ
スキ スキ スキ スキ スキ スキ スキ
あなたなの隣で 景色を眺めたいの
スキ だけど ホント たまに キライ

でも スキ スキ スキ スキ スキ スキ
気づいてくれない 所がやなだけ

恋の女神 お月さま 誰でもいいから
どうか どうか 助けてよね 私 負けちゃいそうだよ

ツーアウト!

カラカラ回る カラマワリ
スライディングしても 届かない
クルクル回る クリカエシ
あなたの笑顔に 敵わない

カラカラ回る カラマワリ
いつか打ちたわ ホームラン
クルクル回る クリカエシ
バントの構えで 場外

言う やめる やめる やっぱ ムリだ
スキ スキ スキ スキ スキ スキ スキ
こんなに悩んで 一人で悲しいよね
スキ だけど ホント たまに クライ
でも スキ スキ スキ スキ スキ スキ
気にしてくれない 所がやなだけ

星占い おまじない 何でもいいから
どうか どうか 背中押して 私 自信がないのよ

チェンジ!

カラカラ回る カラマワリ
繰り出す魔球で フォアボール
クルクル回る クリカエシ
出されたサインは 見送り

からから回る カラマワリ
諦めていたら フェアボール
クルクル回る クリカエシ
私のサインを 見てよ!

カラカラ回る クルクル回る カラカラ回る クルクル回る
カラマワリのクリカエシで カラマワリのクリカエシで
カラマワリはクリカエシ クルクル クルクル クルクル
クルクル クルクそれでも諦めたくないの

プレイボール!

カラカラ回る カラマワリ
スライディングしても 届かない
クルクル回る クリカエシ
あなたの笑顔に 敵わない

カラカラ回る カラマワリ
いつか打ちたわ ホームラン
クルクル回る クリカエシ
さよなら逆転 場外!

カラカラ回る クルクル回る カラカラ回る クルクル回る
カラマワリのクリカエシで カラマワリのクリカエシで
カラマワリはクルクル クルクルクル クルクルクル
クルクルクル クルクルクル クルクルクル クルそれでも諦めたくないの
さよなら逆転 場外!
