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.

  • 数多の太陽が天に輝いた遠い過去
  • 嫦娥の魔の手によって、その光と共に希望は消え去ったかに思えた
  • Once upon a time, there were many suns shining in the sky
  • But by the evil magic of Chang’e, it seemed like that light, along with all hope, had disappeared[1]In Chinese mythology, there was once 10 suns in the sky.  The archer, Hou Yi, shot down all but 1 of them.  Hou Yi was married to both Junko and Chang’e.  Hou Yi killed the son that he had with Junko, causing Junko to murder Hou Yi in revenge.  Chang’e then returned to the moon, and Junko has been chasing her to finish her vengeance ever since.
