IOSYS – 嫦娥絶対殺すマンのうた

March 21, 2018 / / 0 Comments

Title:  嫦娥絶対殺すマンのうた (Absolutely-Will-Kill-Chang’e Man’s Song)
Circle: IOSYS
Vocal: 黒澤りな (Rina Kurosawa)
Lyrics: nukillizo
Arrangement: minami
Release Date: May 7, 2017 (Reitaisai 14)

It’s been a while! Once I heard this jovial, creative tune, I knew it had to be IOSYS. This song has a very classic Japanese “cartoon superhero” feel to it. Follow the adventures of “Absolutely-Will-Kill-Chang’e Man” as she goes on a quest to defeat the evil Chang’e! The promo video has an amusing animation, but is marred an awful hard sub as a joke.

Includeore – slushy poetry feat. 妖狐

Title: slushy poetry
Circle: 俺++ (Includeore)
Vocal: たま(tama), 妖狐 (youko)
Lyrics: 俺++
Arrangement: Coro
Release Date: Dec 29, 2012

One of the first songs I ever translated two years ago, I was stricken by how beautiful and sad it sounded.  I initially thought it was a sad breakup story, but now I think I completely misinterpreted it!  Songs in Japanese rarely use pronouns so it’s up to you to figure out the context of who’s talking to who.  Now that I have a better grasp of the language, I just had to redo the translation.  The song is actually about a boy and a girl who have been friends for a long time, but keep waiting for the other to confess.  Eventually, the girl has to move away and the final standoff (this song) occurs.  This has risen to become my favorite lyrical Touhou pieces of all time.

It’s been a long time since I’ve done a translation, even though I’ve been taking Japanese classes the whole time.  Sometimes when you take a break from doing something and come back after lots of practice, you really get to see how much you’ve improved.  I heard this peppy cute song and instantly knew I had to share Eternity Larva’s motivational words with everyone.

Vocal: 瑶山百霊
Arrangement: LEMiao
Release Date:  Dec 29, 2016

I knew this song was sad and beautiful, but never expected how emotional I got after I finished. This song hit me personally because it described when I watched my grandmother pass away, from her point of view. Not only that, but she was also quite a believer in Taoism herself.

Vocal: Futoumeido
Arrangement: Pizuya’s Cell
Lyrics:  rudder-k
Release Date:  May 08, 2016 (Reitaisai 13)
Requested By: Eiki Shiki

A powerful song about the differences between immortal and mortals.  The singer of this song is an immortal of some sort (maybe Doremy since she’s a youkai) who simultaneously admires and is confused by the seemingly insignificant human life.  She then turns to reflecting on her own immortal life, unable to understand what that is either.
