It was raining heavily this morning. I learnt that this happens, likely because of the train roof shape...

Roughly equivalent to having a small bucket of water dumped on your head

All I'm saying is anybody who thinks the Japanese animation industry commits uniquely baffling crimes upon the English language has not properly appreciated what it does to German.

Was watching yaoi just now and went to the kitchen to pour myself a glass of water. Am now drinking the water. I really am living that "watching yaoi reading yaoi listening to yaoi eating yaoi drinking water" tumblr post meme (or whatever the exact phrasing was...)

#own post #im not that big of a yaoi fan to be honest #i'm really not the target audience of most yaoi at the end of the day #i really wanted to know the plot of an eroge but felt too lazy to scour for downloads #figured that the ova adaptation would be good enough #it wasnt. it was bad. whatever

Ikigusare - Class Prez from Hell (Jigoku Iinchou)

The song, the lyrics (with an english translation by me) and some commentary are below. Content warning for animal death, murder and children being cruel. Hence the cut.

Japanese, directly from the subtitles in the video:

月曜日　高林さんが　ハムスター学校に連れて来た クラス会で話し合って　みんなで飼う事になったの　うれしい だけど飼育係　取り合って女子と男子ケンカしちゃった 授業中もみんな上の空　ハムスター気になってソワソワ

このままじゃいけないわ　何とかしないと クラスまとめるのが私の仕事

クラスの平和を脅かすものは　全身全霊かけて排除する かわいそうだけどハムスターは猫に食べられた事にしましょ

新学期　新しい友達　転校生がやってきた 早くクラスに馴染んでほしい　みんなで温かく迎えましょ だけどその子　ちょっとワガママで　乱暴モノで　ウソツキ 転向したてで心細いの　わかるけど調子に乗りすぎ

このままじゃいけないわ　何とかしないと クラスまとめるのが私の仕事

クラスの平和を脅かすものは　全身全霊かけて排除する かわいそうだけど屋上で遊んでたら落ちた事にしましょ

新しい先生　若くてかっこいい　だけど子供をナメてる 子供には子供の社会があるって事を知らない

このままじゃいけないわ　何とかしないと クラスまとめるのが私の仕事

クラスの平和を脅かすものは　全身全霊かけて排除する かわいそうだけど駅のホームで　足を滑らせた事にしましょ

English:

On Monday, Takahashi brought a hamster to school. After a discussion at class meeting, we decided to keep it. I'm happy! But the boys and the girls fought over who would take care of it. In class, nobody could pay attention, too worried about the hamster.

That's no good! I have to do something! It's my job to keep the class in order!

With all my might, I'll eliminate any threat to the class's peace. I feel bad for it, but... I'll have to feed the hamster to a cat...

New school term, new friends. We got a transfer student! She wants to fit in with the class quickly, let's greet her warmly. But that girl is a bit selfish, rude and lies a lot... I get that she's lonely after changing schools, but this is too much!

That's no good! I have to do something! It's my job to keep the class in order!

With all my might, I'll eliminate any threat to the class's peace. I feel bad for her, but... Let's make her fall down when playing on the roof...

Our new teacher's young and cool. But he underestimates children. He doesn't know that us kids have a society of our own.

That's no good! I have to do something! It's my job to keep the class in order!

With all my might, I'll eliminate any threat to the class's peace. I feel bad for him, but... Let's make him slip off the platform waiting for the train home...

Commentary:

I'll say this outright, the teacher and the transfer student's genders aren't mentioned, I just arbitrarily called them "he" and "she" respectively for the chorus to have an it-her-him pattern. The three grammatical genders, you know. Overall, I wasn't really making the lyrics flow like a proper song here. It's just for anyone curious to understand what the lyrics mean... This one's kind of like a generic 2000s creepy vocaloid song, if you ask me. Not a bad thing necessarily, that's why it even got my attention. My thoughts are... Why doesn't the teacher get four lines of lyrics? That feels a bit imbalanced. Other than that, well, it's a more typical Ikigusare song. Not much to say. Oh, wait, right. Their glasses, yeah. Aren't they neat?

By the way, I didn't forget about translating songs or anything. I'll post about two more Ikigusare translations before moving on to other music. Kind of lost interest in that artist, sorry to whoever cared. Oiwa-san rock is too good, and the rest of Ikigusare isn't Oiwa-san rock...

Based on a comment I got...

Prime Touhou, now combined into even primer Touhou.

The average PC-98 Touhou girl and the average Windows Touhou girl for fun and maybe clothing practice. Their shirts are intentionally a little weird to match ZUN's early costume designs.

Recently I posted the fdi file for Multi Paint System on Twitter. This file comes from Redditor who made a better rip of the rom as the others online didn’t work.

I’ve decided to upload it to the archive because I can’t seem to find the guy who originally uploaded it anymore. I would recommend watching the Youtube video showing the software in action to get a better understanding how to use it and learn the tools.
