No Life Without You - Lyric Translation

I’ve had Kashuu’s 2nd single album for over a week now and I still love how beautiful this song is! <3 Doing a little look around tumblr, it looks like no one has posted a translation for this song (??), so I wrote one up earlier today to share just how sweet this one is. It may not be the cleanest translation, so excuse that, but here it is.

Kanji

あの日に僕らが見ていた夕日は何色だったんだろう 赤、オレンジ色？今日とは違う気がして不思議だね

あれから時は経って 一人きりにも随分慣れたけれど 今も足りないんだ I miss you この空に

ひとつだけの願い叶えて欲しくても 叶うことはないと 神様、お願い時間を戻して たとえこの先 幸せな瞬間があっても Without youなら そんなものはもう意味がないのと同じさ

あの日から僕はパラレルワールド 迷い込んでいるだけで 君のいる世界 きっと今でもどこかにあるはずと

君想って心が温かくなる でもその後には淋しくなってしまう I miss you この空を

眺め続けていると何故か 君と繋がっている気がする 不思議だねそれが より深く孤独 感じさせるよ どんな素晴らしい未来でも Without youなら そんなものはもう意味がないのと同じさ

夢が覚めてもしすべて無かったことだとして それなら本当に僕は 楽になれるだろうか？ No life without you

ひとつだけの願い叶えて欲しくても 叶うことはないと 神様、お願い時間を戻して たとえこの先 幸せな瞬間があっても Without youなら そんなものはもう意味がないのと同じさ

Romaji

English

That day we looked at the setting sun, what color was it, I wonder? Red? Orange? I feel like today it’s different, how mysterious

Ever since then, time stood still Even though I’m also rather used to being alone, today is also lacking I miss you To this sky…

If just this one wish is granted, I would wish for nothing more God, please turn back time Even if the future has moments of happiness, if I’m without you, that would be the same as it being meaningless

Ever since that day, I’ve just been lost in a parallel world The world where you exist should surely exist somewhere even now

My heart, which thinks of you, grows warm But after that, it ends up growing lonely I miss you This sky…

When I continue to gaze at it, somehow I feel like I am connected to you How mysterious. That is a deep, deep loneliness that I end up feeling No matter how wonderful the future will be, if I’m without you that would be the same as it being meaningless

Even if I wake up and it all was nothing, I wonder if I would really be able to be at peace? No life without you

If this one wish is granted, I would wish for nothing more God, please turn back time Even if the future has moments of happiness, if I’m without you, that would be the same as it being meaningless

Hello! I've been wondering about Ryuji's schooling. Ever since he started his career, he hasn't gone to school? I mean, I want to know how Ryuji is as a school boy. 😆 May I know your thoughts about this? Thank you! 😊

Hiya! xD Thank you for the Ask because I had a great time walking down memory lane and compiling the information about Ryuji’s school days and childhood xDDDD

Ryuji actually started his career while he was still in high school, so at one point, he was studying and working at the same time.

He made his official debut into the entertainment industry in 2011 with “Kamen Rider Fourze”. At the time, he was 16 years old and was in Grade 12 (second year of high school). Because Ryuji is actually born in Sendai and lived his childhood years there (including his schooling years), he temporarily rented an apartment for a month in Tokyo during the course of the filming.

After he had finished filming Fourze, he decided to seriously pursue his acting career and moved to Tokyo permanently in April 2012. Or, more accurately, his father had asked him if he wanted to pursue his acting career, and when Ryuji gave an indication that he did indeed want to, his father rented an apartment for him in Tokyo. LOL!

Once it was decided that he would move to Tokyo on a long-term basis, arrangements were made for Ryuji to transfer to a school in Tokyo. The school was a high school which offered “home correspondence courses”; a type of high school with a more flexible schedule which catered for students who were working while they were studying. Along with his actual high school studies, Ryuji attended classes offered by his agency (which were voice projection and acting classes) and also participated in the productions, like the “Musical Nintama Rantarou”.

It is also interesting to note that during this time (right after he had moved to Tokyo and just before he auditioned for the “Musical Nintama Rantarou”), there was a period where Ryuji was a semi-NEET (the term referring to a young person who is “Not in Education, Employment, or Training”) for approximately half a year. He still attended classes (although he admitted to occasionally skipping his acting classes), but wasn’t particularly serious about finding an acting job.

It was also during this time when he landed a part-time job at a BBQ-type restaurant, and it was that experience that actually acted as a trigger for him to becoming more serious about finding an actual acting job (because he had been willing to help with storage and other things, but was assigned to work at the hotplates and ovens, and he, quite literally, couldn’t stand the heat. He quit the job after two days LOL).

It is also worth noting that his first ever audition and first ever job was “Kamen Rider Fourze”, and when he decided to get serious about pursuing his career for real, he landed the role of Tamura Mikiemon in the “Musical Nintama Rantarou”.

In 2013, at the age of 18, he graduated high school. However, he missed out on the opportunity to attend his graduation ceremony due to scheduling conflicts with his work (something he mentioned during the “Gakuran Kageki Teiichi no Kuni” graduation ceremony, which was the first time he had experienced attending a graduation ceremony).

Because this is getting a little long (LOL), below the cut are just random bits of trivia that I know of Ryuji throughout his schooling years (and maybe a little from his childhood).

FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST SPECIAL INTERVIEW: ROMI PARK x RYOSUKE YAMADA - When the 2 Eds Meet!!

Fullmetal Alchemist, the movie that has been attracting attention and is soon to be the opening screening at the Tokyo International Film Festival. Ryosuke Yamada and Romi Park, together as two fans of the manga who have played the protagonist Ed in the live action and anime versions respectively, discuss their thoughts on the passionate love for FMA and its adaptation to live action.

“I cried like a baby at the scene with Ed, Al, and Winry” (Park)

It’s almost time for the opening of the live action movie of Fullmetal Alchemist, an almost legendary dark fantasy manga that has sold a total of 70 million copies as a series worldwide and has had 2 anime adaptations. Ryosuke Yamada, who with an extraordinary resolve took on filming as the lead role [of the movie], is actually close friends with the long time voice of anime version Ed, Romi Park. We started by asking the two fans of the manga to tell us the story of how they met.

Y: The first time I met her was over lunch. Because Romi-chan is the Ed that I’ve always seen, I kept fidgeting unsure of what to do… Her personality also resembles Ed… how should I put it, she’s cool. She told me her honest feelings about the live action adaptation and, after watching the movie very attentively, she also gave me her exact impressions on it so I was very happy. We talked about a lot of things like the hardships that only someone playing Ed would understand and It was a wonderful time.

P: The first impression I had of Yamada-kun was “what beautiful eyes this kid has!” Straight ahead, the inside of those transparent eyes were full to the brim with a fighting spirit intent on carrying Fullmetal Alchemist on his shoulders to the very best of his ability… As someone who played the same Ed, I also started overflowing with more happiness than I thought I would.

At the time [of the anime] Park, the senpai Ed, also felt the pressure of playing the protagonist of this worldwide popular work.

P: The work Fullmetal Alchemist itself is something quite like a black hole and this monster created by (Hiromu) Arakawa Sensei takes everything away from you. That’s why, in order to carry [FMA], it’s important to be able to take an enormous amount of heat. It’s just like, “Your body, mind, soul, everything, hand it over!” because it’s constantly doing a lot of tampering with your interior. Every week, every week I submitted myself to this monster with all my power, would be wrapped up in it, and would have everything taken away. It was a work that needed that much infinite power.

Y: I wanted to give importance into not thinking about it deeply. However, because the human being standing on-set is me, I did what I could on top of obviously taking on Ed’s appearance, rewatching the anime, and also reading the manga over again many times. I had to stand on-set, not as the manga’s Ed nor the anime’s Ed, but as “Ryosuke Yamada’s Ed” so as it’s expected, some originality also became necessary there. When I take on filming, I stand on top of many things that I’ve studied so I don’t really think about it too deeply and just face all of the things that happen on-set earnestly, giving importance to reacting.

“In my 24 years of life, this is the work that I’ve poured everything into.” (Yamada)

It is also said that Yamada personally went all out and took on dangerous action scenes. Was there something you were carefully about during filming?

Y: Just “don’t get injured” I guess. That’s what I’d always think while doing [the action scenes]. That’s why in the beginning, the scene where I jump off from a roof to leap onto Cornello (Kenjirou Ishimaru) was filmed on the day we finished shooting. They built a roof set and dug a hole about 5 meters deep in the ground that I was supposed to run and jump into. But that scene was something that I had never done until then so it was fun. What was the most important [scene] during shooting was the fight with (CG-created) Al. There, I had to punch an opponent that wasn’t there and Al’s height is 2 m 20 cm so… 

P: That was amazing!

Y: My punches don’t reach him you know. It was also my first time having to punch with my left hand instead of my right. If it was with my right then I could have very good form, but I couldn’t do that with my left so I earnestly started shadow boxing at home while researching it. That scene was very tough, but after watching the completed scene I was extremely satisfied.

P: In the movie, this was the scene that I also got caught up in the most, to the point of almost forgetting to breathe. Ed, Al, and Winry’s unavoidable feelings seem to have a triple intersection, making me teary-eyed and my heart tremble. Despite that Yamada-kun, I can’t believe Al wasn’t there during shooting! It’s really amazing! Without fail I always had Al there, Rie (Kugimiya)!

Among the appearing characters the precious partner, younger brother Al, and the brothers’ childhood friend Winry have an especially strong emotional attachment.

Y: I also had a lot of time involving Winry and Tsubasa (Honda) also knew the character very well herself so in both her relation to me and in our exchanges she was thoroughly Winry. She’d always say things like, “Your face is pretty. Your face is pretty, but your height…” (laughs). I’d reply with “Shut it! Idiot…” though. We were able to start shooting with that kind of relationship so it was really easy to play [Ed with her]. Even the scenes that became emotional were like a well-played melody that didn’t fall into dissonance. I think that if it hadn’t been Tsubasa, maybe I wouldn’t have been able to play Ed.

P: For a little while, when the movie started, Al didn’t speak so it made me very impatient, but the moment he spoke, I cried out in complete joy,  "…, ah! Al! Al spoke!“ (laughs). Seeing the exchanges between Yamada-kun’s Ed, (Atomu) Mizuishi-kun’s Al, and Honda-san’s Winry made me feel once again that Fullmetal Alchemist really is a "story of bonds.”

The movie completes Lust, making you feel like there will also be further development and that’s the place where expectations for a sequel are swelling up.

Y: Of course, I’m very eager to do it. Because there’s still many characters that haven’t appeared, and it’s not like we’ve told the whole story. Director (Fumihiko) Sori, the staff, and cast - everyone is also hoping for a continuation to become a reality.

P: (About appreciating the movie) This new Fullmetal Alchemist really got to me, to the point that inside of my mask there was a mix of tears and boogers. Starting with Yamada-kun, the passion that everybody having to do with this movie has is impressive. Even if it’s just one more person, I would like you to watch it. And if you could support [this movie in order] to be able to meet even more Fullmetal Alchemist, I’d be happy. To put it another way, I want to see [a continuation]!

Y: Because Romi-chan said it, we have to make it now.

P: Wait! Is it just me [saying it]?

Y: Well then, it’s because the ‘2 Eds’ are saying it so…

P: Yeah, the 'Eds’ [said it]!
