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.
mezasu wa uchuu toraberu
doko made datte ikeru wa! go!
- 「目指すは宇宙トラベル！」
- どこまでだって行けるわ！ go！
- “I’m heading off to travel the universe!”
- I can go anywhere! Go!

- When I woke up in the morning, I had taken a super transformation (metamorphosis)

- 風音と平行線 戯れて
- My swaying antenna mix and mingle with the summer wind
- playing with the sound of wind and parallel lines

In line 大いなる超変身「メタモル」にかかっていた私
It have not 超変身, can you explain me ?
April 12, 2018 at 4:54 am
Hi Kiryu,
Yes, 超変身 is not actually in the song. I made the mistake of putting it side-by-side. On the album’s lyrics card, sometimes the lyricist will use kanji for artistic expression, but using pronunciation and furigana for another word. Since I got these lyrics from a youtuber, they cannot write furigana and so they put it in quotations instead.
I changed the lyrics to use furigana to show the artistic substitution.

It took me 2 weeks to find out why is that 😀

In the line “いつか いつか 宇宙へ”, the “宇宙” is actually pronounced “そら（空）”, right? Seems like another case of furigana to me.
February 7, 2019 at 3:29 pm
Yes, I just missed it. It is a furigana substitution.
