A thunder jolt rushes in!

あなたの　心を　つかむため あたしは　隠れて　待っている  簡単には　見つからないように  きまぐれな　世界を　信じているのよ

I’ll hide in wait so I can capture your heart Like it can’t easily be found, I believe in a quirky [1] world!

触れないように　歩くための  気持ちは　魅力に　あふれている  まっさらな　図鑑が　埋まる　たびに  知らない　街まで　歩きたくなるのよ 

The mood that drives me to walk so I won’t touch is overflowing with charm Every time a brand new index [2] is filled up, I want to walk down to an unknown city!

あああああ  はじめまして　あたし　あなたの　心です  かわいい　だけじゃない　ってこと  知ってほしいの 

Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah! Nice to meet you, I’m your heart It’s not just because you’re cute, I want you to know that!

でんげきが　はしる！  画面を　またいだ　あたしと　目が　あって  捕まえたのは　あなた  感情を　知らない　きれいな　声は　離れない 

A Thunder Jolt [3] rushes in! You strode across the screen and looked me in the eyes I got you! That beautiful voice that can’t understand my feelings won’t leave

しょうげきを　くらう！  不安定な　空模様に　とどめばり  動けないのは　あなた  感情の　いたみわけを　して  回復すれば　いいよ 

I’ll take this impact! At an unstable look of the sky, I use Fell Stinger [3]! You can’t move now! It’d be great to Pain Split [3] our feelings and restore our health

心　体　すべてに　効く　技は  あたしを　連れていくと　生まれるの  まずは　しびれさせて　しまおう  のちの　あなたが　楽に　なるために 

Moves that affect the heart, the body, everything, arise as I am taken along First, I have to make you go numb, so you’ll feel a lot better later

１人だけの　ままじゃ  飛べない　乗れない　潜れない　音が  世界の　図鑑と　誰かの　時間を  埋めて　満たして　いく 

A sound that  can’t fly, be ridden or dive by itself, fills the world’s index [2] and someone’s time all the way to completion

しょうげきを　くらう？  誰かにとって　この声は　いまひとつ  捕まえたのは　あなた  感情を　知らない　きれいな　声は 

Wanna take this impact? For someone, this voice is not very effective [4] I got you! That beautiful voice that can’t understand my feelings

でんげきを　ためる！  プラスと　マイナスの　言葉が　ぶつかって 

A Thunder Jolt [3] is amassing! Words of plus and minus [5] collide

暗闇を　明るく　照らし  かなしみのなか　強くして　連れてって  見つけたのは　あなた 

Brightening up the darkness Gathering strength, taking me out of sadness, I found you!

でんげきが　はしる！  画面の　向こうまで　届け　あたしの声  捕まえたのは　あなた  感情を　知らない　きれいな　声は　離さない 

A Thunder Jolt [3] rushes in! May my voice reach you from across the screen! I got you! That beautiful voice that can’t understand my feelings won’t let go

しょうげきを　つなぐ！  心　つき動かして　イナズマドライブ  繰り返すのは　あなた 

I’ll connect the impact! I’ll move your heart with Electro Drift [3] You repeat!

『感情を　でんきにかえて  すてきな　声に　なるでしょう  以上　電気予報を　お伝えしました

“If you morphed your feelings into electricity, it’ll become a wonderful voice, don’t you think? That’s all for the electricity forecast [6].

hoo boy where do we even begin in the translation and personal notes

Notes: 1 - The term きまぐれ is how the Quirky nature is written in Japanese--note that if a big word gets written in hiragana it's more than likely a specific Pokémon reference. 2 - ...with the exception of 図鑑, the Japanese term for the Pokédex, but I translated it without the Poké-connotation since it's not written as ポケモン図鑑. 3 - Everything marked for this footnote are all Pokémon move references which correspond to Pokémon that appear in the key illustration--in order of appearance:

でんげき - Thunder Jolt (A Pikachu-exclusive move (and a Smash Bros and TCG-exclusive move too--this was quite hard to find) とどめばり - Fell Stinger (A move that can be learned by Togedemaru (the ball flying on the red balloon, which in itself is an item used to negate its extreme weakness to Ground-type moves)) いたみわけ - Pain Split (A move that can be learned by Mimikyu) イナズマドライブ - Electro Drift (A Miraidon-exclusive move (the purple dragon at the back of the key illustration))

4 - The term いまひとつ is how 'It's not very effective...' is written in Japanese. 5 - プラス and マイナス correspond to Pokémon abilities that can be held by Plusle and Minun (the red and blue babies in the key illustration) 6 - And finally the title itself. It's a pun based on how 電気予報 (denki yohou) sounds like 天気予報 (tenki yohou). I would've translated it to something like 'Thunder Forecast' since it sounds similar to 'Weather Forecast', but unfortunately, 電気 not only specifically means simple electricity, it's also how the Electric-type is written in Japanese--and it can't be confused with the Japanese name for the move Thunder (かみなり/kaminari) either!

Watching ace attorney playthroughs again and this isn't even enough of a reach to be a joke this twitter post is just exactly what happened

[cairafea]

they're matching costumes.

[egophiliac]

(breathing into a paper bag) FRALIO....

can't believe they gave us another guy. oh my god. so I guess Kelka is more, uhhh, more OOO then, and Fralio is Ankh? not that it matters too much, although they do seem to be doing something with the connected Riders so. who knows. anything goes! or if I may, anything gOOOes! god. of course they're the Ambition parallel. of course they are. oh my god.

fortunately there's nothing else they can throw at me right now that could possibly --

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[camellcat]

do you guys think spike would want to take buffy's name if they ever got married? cause I do.

every single time I've read a fic where they share a last name, they take spike's name and I DO NOT believe it. I don't believe it for a SECOND. unless we're talking william here, no SHOT he wouldn't wanna be a summers!!

like... ough. he'd be connected to both buffy and dawnie 🥺🥺🥺

Mr.Illustrates how does it feel to know that arlecchino’s backstory and fatherly role aligns with your theory of the pyro archon?

Actual footage of me playing her story quest yesterday and hearing about the fucked up way Crucabena used to run that house:

While I don't believe in "inherent sisterhood" per se, I do think Mouthwashing wouldn't have gone down as it did (if a situation would've gone down at all) if just one other woman had been on board with Anya.

[continentaltheater]

maybe in a better life

[egophiliac]

Did peepaw come home?!

HE DID! :D! luckily it only took me three ten-pulls; I think my past experience of being so thoroughly denied a Fairy Gala Ortho made me more worried than I should have been. may the gacha blessings pay forward to everyone else! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

so far this is hands-down the funniest Lilia card, because he'll say something all edgy and badass in that deeper ~General Vanrouge~ tone and then follow it up immediately with one of the non-card-specific cutesy Lilia lines, and it gets me every time

I tried but not very hard to see what the anniversary date was, and i decided to just prepare myself for the 16th or the 18th... it was the former. so, as always, but this time truly by accident... happy belated 17th birthday Black Butler!! I truly hope this year is amazing for us.

this year, I decided to use an idea I had wanted to try for a while but I never thought I would be able to pull off. and I still probably couldn't in the best way.... but regardless, here is a made up last chapter scenario.

you can also see this comic on webtoon here. whatever your fancy, if you please :>
