MHA Chapter 429 spoilers translations

This week’s initial tentative super rough/literal translations under the cut.

1 僕の"個性"が「家系のどこにも属さないとつぜんへんい」だと聞いて ぼくの"こせい"が「かけいのどこにもぞくさないとつぜんへんい」だときいて boku no "kosei" ga 「kakei no doko ni mo zokusanai totsuzen hen'i」 da to kiite I heard my quirk is "a sudden mutation that didn't belong to any of the family's lineages."

2 パパもママもシスターもおじさんもおばさんもばぁばもじぃじも大じぃじも急に優しくなくなった パパもママもシスターもおじさんもおばさんもばぁばもじぃじもおおじぃじもきゅうにやさしくなくなった PAPA mo MAMA mo SHISUTAA mo ojisan mo obasan mo baaba mo jiiji mo oojiiji mo kyuu ni yasashiku nakunatta Papa, Mama, Sister, Uncle, Aunt, Grandma, Grandpa, and Great-Granddad all of a sudden stopped being nice to me.

(*Note: The word used for pro heroes is from the English, "hero," pronounced as HIIROO in Japanese. This new list of "heroes" Hawks suggests uses the Japanese word for hero, eiyuu. Not coincidentally, "UA" gets its name from reversing the kanji in eiyuu: ei・yuu -> yuu・ei.)

All Might called Izuku the greatest hero, then later called both Izuku and Katsuki the greatest heroes, and now he's saying there are even more "greatest heroes" than that.)

[infriga]

I saw other people were thinking of names for the characters in Fan Letter so I thought I'd give it a go myself since it's fun lol. So these are my name picks if I had to name them:

I'd probably pick Mizu for Nami's fan cause Nami means wave and Mizu means water so a wave affecting water so profoundly seems fitting and Mizu is a relatively common name to reflect how she represents the average person.

I'd probably name the older greengrocer brother Ward as a reference to windward/leeward which are sailing terms that mean facing into the wind and away from the wind respectively because Luffy's name is a reference to luffing which is a sailing term, plus ward can also mean to guard or protect something.

Likewise I'd name his younger brother Tack as a reference to tacking which is a similar term to luffing, since he's an overachieving younger brother like Luffy is lol, and also the type of tack you're on influences which side of the boat is windward or leeward. It could also be short for attack which is the opposite of protect and sort of alludes to the difference in the brothers' personalities.

Brook's fan I'd name Anastasia since Brook was largely inspired by Slash and that's the name of one of his most popular songs. I also think it fits her.

For the Chopper fan he was hard to think of one for but I came up with Murdoch since it means warrior of the sea to go with his moniker "king of the waves", and because doch -> doc -> doctor lol

The Mihawk fan I'd call Torizawa because it can mean rumour or gossip, and tori can also mean bird, like a hawk huehue.

I was also toying with calling the Zoro and Franky fans Kiri and Nuki respectively because kirinuki means newspaper/magazine clipping or the cutting for a scrapbook, plus kiru is Zoro's favourite word (it means to cut/slice), but it's more of a joke/pun name for the two of them cause I couldn't think of anything else 😂

[imagination-overreaction]

I recently read this post and it hit me--there's so much in-your-face symbolism in this show, surely the writers tucked more into it for fun, right? Especially with all the other bird symbolism in the show I'm also just a sucker for symbols and double meanings lol. So when I saw the sparrow mentioned in the Kinuyo scene I just had to look up possible sparrow symbolism, and much to my delight I found the folk tale "Shita-kiri Suzume" (literally: "tongue-cut sparrow").

in the Tongue-Cut Sparrow, an old man has a sparrow that he loves dearly. While he is away, the sparrow eats starch the man's wife had made, and the greedy wife cuts the bird's tongue out and flings it out to the wild. The man goes to find the sparrow with the help of the other sparrows, and he recieves treasure. His wife, hearing of the treasure, goes to find the sparrows and get some herself. She doesn't receive treasure, but instead she receives a basket full of monsters that kill her (in some versions I believe the sparrows lead her off a cliff, but either way they directly kill her).

BES loves to compare the women to birds: Akemi is the songbird, Mizu is the phoenix, and Kinuyo is, of course, the dead sparrow. However, this show doesn't seem to like to make the symbols be just one thing: Mizu is the phoenix, but she is also presented as the samurai and the onryo. Each part of the samurai story has a different comparison, so it wouldn't be a stretch to apply that logic to the Tongue-Cut Sparrow story. (unrelated note: I absolutely adore the puppetry scenes, and how the puppeteers fade out more in each segment until they're invisible. 10/10 artistic choice, but anyways)

That old man loved his sparrow. Even though it was technically free in the wilderness, he worried about it, he worried about the harm it had to endure, and he needed to find it. Kaji needed to protect her Kinuyo after she was taken away, even after she was technically freed, after her only way to communicate was taken away from her by someone driven by greed.

[unolvrs]

UPCOMING WORKS? PLEASE? IF THERE AREN'T ANY, IT'S OKAY TOO!

uhh, there are both upcoming works and upcoming updates! i have sneak peeks for each one! but here they are:

少年A　（jjk ft. male!reader; possibly megumi/reader）

In a remote village in Sapporo, a thirteen-year-old first year student in an unnamed junior high school allegedly killed three classmates known to bully his best friend who they had driven to suicide. (Or, none of that is true.)

少年A (or: Boy A) was initially made as an OC out of nowhere. i shared him to a few friends before i realized that the set-up of him being nameless and just being called 'Boy A' was perfect for a reader-insert. and before i knew it, i was already writing everything down and it was really, really fun. the term 「少年A」 is something akin to 'John Doe' and it's mostly a name used to minors involved in a crime. there are lots of criminal 「少年A」 in japan so if you want to read about them, i'd give you a big trigger warning because the most well-known 「少年A」 was involved a horrific case.

2. among dawn flowers (the face of god), an extra chapter

i always get notifications about comments concerning dawn flowers and i've read all of them. thank you for your very kind words! they make me feel very happy every time i read them :D i'll be replying to them soon. but the most common comment is about gojō's... well, reaction to everything and what he truly felt for the main character, and there were a couple of misunderstandings in the comments too. i would normally just leave the misunderstandings be to let people have their own interpretation but i've been getting lots of comments and DMs about dawn flowers all the time, so this extra chapter happened. it has the following AUs too:

zen'in naoya marries tengai-san instead

tengai-san survives

tōji snatches up tengai-san (not at all romantic but a found family of sorts because their dynamics are really interesting! because they're the people who neither needs the least!)

and idk, maybe some more? i'll be reading through the comments again!

3. kirigakure-centric naruto fic

“Kirigakure didn’t need help. They needed salvation.”  No one knows anything about the Mizukage. Only that she’s kind. She likes to smile. She likes seafood like every other Mizu-born. And that there’s something inexplicably wrong with her. There’s something wrong with the Mizukage whom the Kiri-nin call a ‘god’. —or, Wataru Wataru was never really a powerhouse, in this life or the last, but she’s resourceful. She knows cults, pyramid schemes, and corrupt politicians like the back of her hand, so of course, she becomes the Mizukage and becomes a god along the way.

it's highlighted because it's undergoing editing... but yes, the mizukage cultist fic that i was talking about a month ago. it currently has four chapters in my drafts. i'm testing the waters on whether or not i can maintain it. so far, i have everything planned... like the timeline... it's too detailed.

4. shintō pjo fic

Beyond the eastern seas, Sen'no Hyōran wages a one-man war. (Or, if all she needs is the Golden Fleece, if all she needs is to steal that damned thing, then she will. Those Greeks standing in her way or not.)

YES IT'S HAPPENING OK!

of course, there's also the writing of kill the goose (3 chapters in my drafts now!), rain on my parade (a very slow rewriting), sunday without god (i wrote the next chapter and it was too long like 8k words and i'm not even halfway done so i'm stuck)! and posting some comm'd works that have been rotting in my drive for months!

some possible fics but no promises:

floating blue (nanami/reader)

Aoi's josei romance manga life starts when she's saved by Nanami Kento after almost falling down the train tracks! (Or, it turns out that Aoi is the main character of a supernatural josei manga! She's so excited!)

starts off as a cliché josei manga set-up bc aoi is a josei manga protagonist! then turns deep :D might become a reader-insert instead but without the [name] insert things. just second pov. this was really meant to be a rom-com than a sudden "omg! i'm in a supernatural josei manga!" might write bc it's a cute concept.

the prostitution of learning (jjk & male!oc)

There is no other main character but Kikuchi Eita. (Or, defeating enemies, exorcizing Curses, facing conservative higher-ups, there’s no adversity that Kikuchi Eita cannot push through because Kikuchi Eita is the main character. That is until Itadori Yūji.)

i made this guy before 少年A and while eita is my favorite oc i've ever created in jjk, 少年A's story is easier to write. but the prostitution of learning is a bit more complicated even just with eita's planned CT and while i'd love nothing more than to write this one, idk if i'd have the time but i really want to!

willow diaries / 柳日記 (kakashi/oc)

Kakashi gets a nobleman's concubine pregnant. Whoops. (Or, I no Yanagihaya's honorable brother-in-law said to surprise him. She did.)

first of all, it's not cheating or infidelity. said nobleman is dead. anyway, i think this is the most likely to be written bc i've written the first chapter a hundred times but couldn't get satisfied. anyway, this one's fun. and i love civilian ocs! especially writing nobility. the research was a pain but i loooove this one.

pls... don't ask me about frog in a well :"") i'm working on it! idk, froggie's become that weird cousin idk if i wanna talk to or not. it's awkward between the two of us right now bc ik i could start writing the chapter anytime and get it done and over it quickly but i've been lazy and focusing on other stuff hehe <3

マグダラなマリアの「ティータイム」 ・ “Tea Time” (Magdala na Maria)

Huge kudos to the help from two friends I had to help with the spoken parts :] this is such a quirky song, but it’s so fun!

Below cut are lyrics sectioned off in Japanese, Ro-maji, and English versions!

<<SPOKEN>> さあ！休憩！ みんなお茶の準備して！

<<SUNG>> ティータイム 七色のフレーバー 退屈 霧のように消える ティータイム お砂糖は控えめに お菓子が甘くなくなるから

<<SPOKEN>> クララ！アールグレイ！

はい、かしこまりました！

<<SUNG>> ティータイム ミルクを入れるのは 渋くなる二杯目から

ティータイム 想いを馳せるのは はるかなる シルクロード

お酒なんてドラッグ コカインと一緒 時間の無駄よ 紅茶が一番

ティータイム ティータイム お茶は喜び お茶があれば大丈夫

<<SPOKEN>> ローズマリー！ サボってるとあなたの分ないわよ！

はーい！ごめんなさい！

<<SUNG>> ティータイム お茶に欠かせないのは バームクーヘン クッキー パウンドケーキ

ティータイム ババロアと フォンダンショコラ クレームブリュレ キャラメルシブースト！

お茶と甘いお菓子は いつだって一緒 離れはしない 君と僕の様に

ティータイム ティータイム 愛は喜び 愛があれば大丈夫

ティータイム ティータイム 水がなければ

ティータイム ティータイム お茶を飲めばいい

ティータイム ティータイム お茶は喜び

ティータイム ティータイム お茶があれば大丈夫！

<<SPOKEN>> Saa! Kyuukei! Min’na ocha no junbi shite!

<<SUNG>> Tea time As for adding milk Do so after the second cup, when it becomes bitter

Tea time Tea time Tea is a delight If you have tea you’ll be alright

<<SPOKEN>> Rosemary! You won’t get your share if you slack off!

Yes! Sorry!

<<SUNG>> Tea time The essential parts of tea are Baumkuchen (German tree cake) Cookies Pound cakes

Tea and sweet treats always go together They’ll never be apart Just like you and me

Tea time Tea time Love is a delight If you have love you’ll be alright

Tea time Tea time It’d be great if you drink tea

Tea time Tea time Tea is a delight

Tea time Tea time If you have tea you’ll be alright!

I'm going to be making some son art in a more serious manner later on. But have a living Zabuza.

In my AU he survived the fall into the waters and eventually washed up somewhere in the Kiri marshes. He's going to be replacing Mei as Mizu in my AU as well but that will be on a later date.

[iiftaa]

bantu

pukul 7 kurang 12 menit, aku sudah sampai di sebuah rumah berwarna putih gading. rumah itu cukup luas dengan halaman depan yang dihiasi dengan aneka tanaman hias.

setelah memarkirkan motorku, aku segera menuju pintu depan rumah itu, berniat untuk memencet bel.

*tingtong* bel pertama tidak ada jawaban.

*tingtong* barulah bel kedua mendapat jawaban dari sang tuan rumah.

pintu rumah itu terbuka, menampilkan sesosok laki-laki tinggi besar yang mengenakan kaos berwarna hijau army.

"eh, udah dateng lu, Ta." ujarnya.

"hehe. iya, Bang. tadi Mama nelpon katanya gue disuruh ke sini." jawabku. laki-laki yang aku panggil bang tadi adalah Ryno. anak sulung Mama.

Ryno langsung mempersilahkanku masuk.

"langsung ke meja makan aja ya, Ta." ujarnya.

aku hanya menanggapi dengan anggukan sopan.

aku melangkahkan kaki menuju ruang makan keluarga itu tanpa ragu sedikitpun karena aku seolah sudah hapal denah rumah ini secara keseluruhan. hal ini bisa terjadi karena aku sudah menghabiskan lebih dari separuh hidupku mengenal keluarga ini. mulai dari Mama, Papa, Ryno, Axton, Thea, Mbak Isah, bahkan hewan-hewan peliharaan keluarga ini. Maru si kelinci; Coconut, Mizu, dan Tedy si marmut; Kousuke si hamster; serta Chipsy si long haired chihuahua yang suka menggigiti boneka-boneka milik Thea.

"eh, udah dateng kamu?" itu adalah suara Mama.

"iya, Ma." jawabku.

"kena macet ngga?" tanya Mama sambil menyiapkan piring di meja makan.

"ngga, Ma. Asta naik motor, jadi bisa nyelip-nyelip." jawabku sambil membantu Mama menata piring yang tadi dibawa olehnya.

tidak perlu waktu lama untuk makanan siap di atas meja. setelah semua siap, seluruh anggota keluarga berkumpul di ruang makan. Papa duduk di kursi paling ujung, kursi yang biasanya ditempati oleh para kepala keluarga seperti di film-film. di samping kanannya ada Mama, disusul dengan Axton. sedangkan di samping kiri Papa ada Ryno yang duduk bersebelahan denganku. aku sedikit heran karena ada satu anggota keluarga yang kurang. Thea tidak ada di sana.

"ayo, pada nyobain rendang sama ketupat bikinan Mama kolaborasi sama Mbak Isah." ujar Mama. "yang kurang suka ketupat, ini juga ada nasi putih." lanjutnya.

semua orang yang berada di meja makan saat itu menyantap masakan Mama dan Mbak Isah dengan lahap. sudah tidak diragukan lagi skill memasak Mama. masakannya lah yang paling enak se-antero Jabodetabek kalau aku boleh hiperbola.

30 menit berlalu, semua sudah selesai makan. Papa, Ryno, dan Axton memutuskan untuk kembali ke kamar mereka masing-masing karena masih ada pekerjaan yang harus diselesaikan, sedangkan aku membantu Mama membereskan piring bekas makan bersama tadi.

"kamu pasti heran ya kenapa Thea ngga ada?" ujar Mama seolah bisa membaca isi pikiranku sedari tadi.

"eh?" aku menatap Mama dengan tatapan terkejut.

"Thea ke Sydney, Ta." jelas Mama.

seketika aku membulatkan mataku. "Sydney?" tanyaku.

Mama menjawab dengan anggukan. "iya, Sydney, Australia." jelas Mama.

"dia berangkat sehari sebelum lebaran." lanjut Mama.

"kok ngga ngabarin Asta?" tanyaku.

iya, aku tahu. mungkin pertanyaanku terdengar seolah aku adalah orang yang harus serba tahu apapun yang dilakukan oleh Thea, tapi aku benar-benar keheranan kenapa Thea pergi (bahkan ke luar negeri) tanpa memberitahuku sama sekali.

"jangankan ngabarin kamu. Mama tau dia ke Sydney aja sehari setelah dia sampai sana." jelas Mama.

aku semakin mengerutkan dahi mendengar penjelasan dari Mama barusan.

"dia ngga cerita ke kamu sama sekali?" tanya Mama.

aku menjawab dengan gelengan. "terakhir ketemu sama Thea sekitar tiga hari sebelum lebaran, Ma. dia ngga cerita apapun yang menyinggung sama keberangkatan dia ke Sydney." jelasku.

"dia berangkat sama temen-temennya. Mama tau karena waktu sampai sana, dia video call Mama buat ngabarin kalau dia baik-baik aja dan dia ngga ngelakuin hal yang aneh-aneh." ujar Mama.

"terus Thea kapan balik, Ma?" tanyaku.

"harusnya sih flight malem ini ya. kalau ngga salah nanti jam 11an pesawatnya udah landing."

"oke. kalau gitu nanti biar Asta yang jemput Thea ya, Ma." ujarku.

"ngga usah, Ta. biar nanti Ryno sama Axton aja yang jemput di bandara. kasian kamu nanti jadi pulang kemaleman." jelas Mama.

aku tidak bisa mengelak perkataan Mama karena aku juga sadar bahwa besok aku harus berangkat pagi ke kantor label rekaman karena ada beberapa klien yang ingin bertemu.

"kamu ketemu dia besok aja habis pulang kerja. gimana?" ujar Mama.

aku hanya bisa menjawab dengan anggukan.

"Ta, Mama tau kalau kamu sayang sama Thea." ucap Mama tiba-tiba.

aku hanya bisa menautkan kedua alisku saat mendengar perkataan Mama barusan.

"kenapa? kamu kok kaya kaget gitu? lagipula tanpa kamu bilang pun, semua perlakuan kamu ke Thea itu udah mengindikasikan dengan jelas kalau kamu sayang sama dia." ujar Mama.

"Mama juga udah kenal kamu bukan cuma setahun dua tahun. Mama kenal kamu sejak kalian berdua masih lari-larian pakai kaos dalem sambil mainan pasir di halaman rumahmu dulu. Mama percaya sama kamu, Ta. Mama percaya kalau kamu ngga mau Thea kenapa-kenapa, jadi bantu Mama buat jagain anak bungsu Mama terus ya, Ta?" lanjutnya.

entah kenapa tiba-tiba udara di sekitarku terasa sesak, namun dalam waktu yang bersamaan ada perasaan hangat yang aku rasakan di dalam dadaku. "iya, Ma. Asta bakal berusaha untuk selalu ada buat Thea." jawabku.

selanjutnya, Mama maju untuk memeluk dan mengelus kepalaku.

"terimakasih, Ta." ujar Mama.

"you don't need to, Ma." jawabku.

Letra Original / Romaji e Tradução

Cantado por: Ishibashi Chie originalmente Letra/Composição: Arai Akino Arranjo: Hokari Hisa'aki Tema de encerramento do anime Record of Lodoss war Cover feito através do Starmaker

Hikari no suashi ~ Pés descalços na luz Hitori kiri mori no ki no shita de ryoute nobashi odoru hora komorebi ni yurete'ru yume

Sozinho sob as árvores da floresta, danço com as mãos estendidas. Olhar! Um sonho que balança na luz do sol filtrada pelas árvores.

shinwa no kaze fuite kami ni yubi ni furete'ku

Os ventos do mito sopram, tocando meus cabelos e dedos.

kanashii koto mo, itai koto mo hi no hikari ni kirameku no tooi kuni e, yuku watashi taiyou mitete kureru no

Mesmo na tristeza, mesmo na dor, enquanto viajo para países distantes que brilham com a luz do sol, o sol cuida de mim.

[Instrumental]

mienai mono konna ni hikareru no wa doushite? shiranai basho watashi wo yonde-iru yume

Por que as coisas invisíveis são tão fascinantes? Um lugar desconhecido... Um sonho me chama...

suashi ni atatakai tane-tachi mo mezameru no

É quente com os pés descalços. As sementes também estão despertando.

yowai inochi, tsuyoi kimochi tori sae mo shitte-iru no donna toki mo, utau dake de sora made todoki-sou

Vida fraca, sentimentos fortes. Até os pássaros sabem. Sempre que eu apenas canto, parece alcançar o céu.

[Instrumental]

mizu kagami ni  utsuru kumo wa senaka no hane hana no kaori matou dake de dekakeru no

As nuvens refletidas na superfície brilhante da água   são asas nas minhas costas. Vestindo apenas a fragrância das flores, parti.

kanashii koto mo, itai koto mo hi no hikari ni kirameku no tooi kuni e, yuku watashi taiyou mitete kureru no

Mesmo na tristeza, mesmo na dor, enquanto viajo para países distantes que brilham com a luz do sol, o sol cuida de mim.

(which by the way have you noticed that people or should I say a lot of people is making jokes about muzan as Micheal Jackson that was priceless on my opinion which I cannot want to do with the other demon Slayer characters cuz this is funny)

[loveoaths]

@sunchascd​‘s temari  ♡ ‘d  for a starter !  

back home, there is an old joke about suna nin. it goes like this:

a kirigakure shinobi is on her way home when a wounded suna nin asks for help. the kiri nin says, “wow, i didn’t know dogs could talk!” and kills the suna nin dead.

hey, haku never said they were good jokes.

haku can’t help but remember this joke as the sunagakure delegate enters the diplomat chambers, her chin high and eyes sharp. with her back to the door and her confident yet defensive and reserved posture, she is startlingly more like the average kiri nin than rumors suggest. then again, she is the first suna nin haku has met eye to eye aside from a battlefield; they are struck with the sobering reminder that the little they know of suna nin is likely steeped in inaccuracies, prejudice, and worse. this is an opportunity to learn something new.

❛     You must be Temari-san, I am Haku, a diplomat of Kirigakure.   ❜   haku says, standing as she joins them. their eyes are warm, too warm for the typical kirigakure shinobi, but their watchfulness is a knife in the night. ❛    Mei-sama is indisposed at the moment, so I’m afraid you’re stuck with me for the moment. This way.    ❜  they guide her to a side door.  ❛    Perhaps we can chat and get to know one another while I show you the premises.    ❜  

[insanescriptist]

Geopolitical maps of Mizu no Kuni, must now include the fact that Kiri has hot springs.

Kiri isn’t on the ocean; look on the official map and it’s pretty much in the middle of the largest island of Mizu. Beyond that, cool air and warm water is how you get tons of fog anyway as the temperatures equalize.
