My translation of the lyrics to "Rokutousei" by Zarame

A NOTE ABOUT THIS TRANSLATION: The lyrics in Japanese are ambiguous about the pronouns on purpose so that they can apply to so many characters in multiple ways (AND THEY SHOULD). As with many English translations of songs and poetry, I took creative license to translate these lyrics in the way that hits me hardest and you know what way that is.

Also I need you to understand before you read this that a "sixth-magnitude star" is the faintest brightness of a star detectable to the human eye. That makes the chorus something of an oxymoron, where the singer is singing about a bright light being swallowed by a dim one.

Kanji:

涙の跡が消えない横顔 瞼に残る 戸惑うことも許さない刹那 怒りに震えた

帰る場所にも似ていたこと 失うために 出会ったわけじゃないんだ 声を　言葉を 優しい熱さを 心に灯して

消えちゃいそうなほど 命が足りないんだ 君を照らせない 光に意味はない

消えちゃいたいくらいの 六等星の瞬き 一番星を掻き消すような 君の声を探してる

消えちゃいそうなほど 小さな命でも 一番星を掻き消すような 君の声を探してる 君の声を探してる

Romaji:

namida no ato ga kienai yokogao mabuta ni nokoru tomadou koto mo yurusanai setsuna ikari ni furueta

kaeru basho ni mo niteita koto ushinau tame ni deatta wake ja nainda koe wo kotoba wo yasashii atsusa wo kokoro ni tomoshite

kiechai sou na hodo inochi ga tarinainda kimi wo terasenai hikari ni imi wa nai

kiechaitai kurai no rokutousei no matataki ichiban-boshi wo kakikesu you na kimi no koe wo sagashiteru

kiechai sou na hodo chiisana inochi demo ichiban-boshi wo kakikesu you na kimi no koe wo sagashiteru kimi no koe wo sagashiteru

Translation:

The profile of a face with traces of tears that won't disappear lingers in my memory* In a brief moment when I wouldn't let my guard down to even be confused I trembled with anger

It's like a place I return home to That doesn't mean I met you just to lose you With your voice, your words, Light up my heart with gentle warmth

I guess this is where I disappear** My life is running out*** I can't shine on you My light is useless****

I just want to disappear Like the twinkling of a sixth-magnitude star drowns out the first evening star I'm searching for your voice

I guess this is where I disappear** Like how even the smallest life drowns out the first evening star I'm searching for your voice I'm searching for your voice

*This phrase is an idiom that reads literally as "to remain in one's eyelids" but means "to live on in one's mind, to remain in memory." **Literally, "It seems like the point at which I disappear." ***Literally, "Life is lacking." ***Literally, "There's no meaning in my light."

Battle Cries by the Amazing Devil. Holy high heavens. What the heck. Humanity must have done something right if this masterpiece gets to exist.

The minute the song starts I am freaking sobbing. Its not a sad song, but it makes me explode with emotion. Yes everything will be okay! We're going to win! And all that laughing and loving and sighing and sobbing will all be worth it! You're gonna be that person 15 you would be proud to know! The triumph and pure happiness and raw excitement for whatever comes next that bleeds from that song? This song makes me excited to live. It makes me excited to love.

And the happy little chords? Madeleine's little laugh?? The overlapping lyrics??? Hrishskhroskshrilfljk find me on a floor in pieces after this song plays ever single freaking time but I love it with all my heart and soul

Battle Cries by the Amazing Devil. That's all. (Screams into a pillow)

i lied it actually has gotten better the problem with mental illness is that a lot of it is actually very long term and will never fully go away so you can learn a lot of ways of handling it but it keeps attacking again and again so sometimes it will win. the trick is in letting it win less and less over time and also not killing yourself

[pa-pa-plasma]

fucking hate fighting with people's who's main strategy is straight up lying & screaming & crying until you give up trying to even attempt communicating. just coming up with the most batshit, insane lies they can think of to slander you & they literally just don't fucking stop, like persistence predator shit except they're just doing it to avoid having to take responsibility. what the fuck is going on in that kind of person's brain

[karcatgirl-vantas]

show me a pathetic sniveling self-pitying whining keening crying blubbering incoherent wretched contemptible villain and I will instantly sympathize with them over the proud righteously-angry self-composed well-spoken hero who they have abused and tortured their whole life because I am constantly threading the needle of having media opinions that annoy the most different people as much as possible

I've been substituting as the delivery coordinator for the last week because both our delivery people are out and there's not a damn manager in the store who's willing to help out with anything in the back office so they just pushed that shit off on me and what I've learned so far is that I'd literally rather be in the seasonal department during Christmas season than this. Yes people will throw pressure washers at your head for your unforgivable crime of being out of the specific olaf inflatable they want but I'd rather take the odds of physical violence against me once a week for about three months of the year than a fifty percent chance of getting verbally abused every time I pick up the phone.

Never thought of this one this way (until a fan pointed it out to me today); but

Okay I just watched the latest episode and I am in TEARS over how beautiful the OP and ED were. Those...those soft, pastel colours did something to me, okay?

The ED especially just did something special to me. The season started off with the backstory of the ADA, so it was so....beautiful to see the ending theme have a little omake of a lazy day at a fully peopled agency. It was nice to see an organisation started by ordinary people with extraordinary talents have a peaceful day where their extraordinary people are doing ordinary things.
