Kiseki: Dear To Me OP Translation
拥有你的明天 has been looping in my brain after watching the OP multiple times and I’m convinced of the editors’ intentionality in picking each scene/CP/character to match each line. So before I forget and to help me process the feels™️, this is my translation/interpretation of the lyrics.
*Disclaimer: There is no 1-1 translation from mandarin to english and direct translations don’t always make sense so each person’s interpretation can be different!
偶尔自我 莫名失落 你能理解
Occasionally alone I’m inexplicably lost, you understand
你掩饰的 痛和快乐 我能感觉
The pain and happiness you hide, I feel it
有一种度日如年的 思念
Missing you for a day feels like a year
在你我之间 悄然地蔓延 该怎么收敛
This silence creeping between the two of us, how do we stop it
不管此刻的我们 多么遥远
No matter how far apart we are in this moment
我要去 一个拥有你的明天 [1]
I only want a tomorrow that has you
就像是 被乌云遮住的光线
Just like a light ray blocked by dark clouds
不会因为谁的阻挡 而改变
We won’t change just because of anyone’s objection
就算所有声音让我们分别
Even if all the voices around cause us to part
为了你愿意对抗 全世界
For you I’m willing to stand against this world
时间不曾让我忘掉 炙热的爱恋
Time has never once let me forget this passionate love
伤口还流著血 誓言绝不改变
The wound still bleeds, our promise will never change
在一望无际的孤岛里呼叫
In this immense isolation and loneliness, yelling [2]
暴雨狂风 找寻微弱讯号
In the violent storm, desperately searching for a sign [3]
等待奇迹出现的 那一秒
Waiting for the second that a miracle appears
不绝望 不伪装 只绽放
No more despairing, no more pretence, only blossoming
[1] It directly translates into “I want to go to a tomorrow that has you” but I think the feeling it’s trying to convey is as above
[2] It translates into “On this boundless lonely island, yelling” but it’s a metaphor so I took some liberties
[3] It directly translates into “In the violent storm, searching for a weak signal”, tying in with the metaphor in [2]; so again, liberties (ties in better with following lines anyway)

"My neck and my hips and my nipples and my back and my stomach, everything all hurts so much, but on the drive home these words kept repeating in my head
From the bottom of my heart, I'm glad I met you
If you asked me why, I couldn't answer
Someday, you'll surely understand it
Love is selfish
There's nothing we can do to change that
#SayonaraSaishuheiki / #TheBirthday
Chris, thank you
I'm fuckin crazy about you
#WrestlePeterPan #ddtpro #njpw"
Desperado is quoting the excellent song Sayonara Saishuheiki by the excellent band The Birthday.

BUBBLE ENG TL
Tumblr media
ARUPEK Making it through one day Epoch makin' with flutter kicks Even living in a bird cage can feel like a city
PIKERO The day and night circling round and round
ARUPEK A fun new experience, Pitch, Chap, Ran
PIKERO Targets all scheduled out TUXAM Longing for the dance floor ARUPEK A peaceful everyday life PIKERO Free to perceive things your own way
TUXAM Ah, at the bottom of the deep waters No one would be able to hear you PIKERO The weak voice being let out forms a bubble ARUPEK Now all you have to do is ascend
ALL Floating in the sky, swimming in the wind No matter how far, just keep going TUXAM The kindness we've received PIKERO The aspirations as well ARUPEK They'll become our wings
ALL Don't care about what they say, even if it's ugly Passion burns up despite the struggles clawing at your feet ARUPEK Like bubbles on a splash of water Rise into the sky
PIKERO I'm not like those guys ARUPEK Using fruits as a midsummer greeting PIKERO Noisily crawling ARUPEK A light that's like a paddle TUXAM There's still plenty of room for growth, just stay tuned
PIKERO (FLY) When times get hard TUXAM (SKY) Without saying a word ARUPEK (CRY) I'll be right by your side And we'll miss out on the evening rain
ARUPEK I can't help being all alone Why do you have just one wing I just can't fly that well Hey, that's why I want you to take my hand
ARUPEK Blending with the colors, going round and round You did this, you gave me a reason Poorly flapping my wings, and in the blink of an eye My heart flutters
ALL Even if you can't fly, you can still spread your wings Like a wandering bird soaring through the sky TUXAM Kick and jump over the current situation PIKERO Decorate a surface of water ARUPEK Even if it seems useless
ALL I won't let things end like this Reach your hand out and touch the sky ARUPEK Someday, I'll be your wings you leave in my care
ARUPEK Like bubbles flying over water Ascend into the sky

MLCB Concert: XSY's Farewell
Tumblr media
In truth, I really don’t like this part, because it also represents that we are bidding our characters farewell for good.
Tumblr media
In the morning, when I was getting my makeup done - in an instant, I returned to that summer. I felt that, to be together with good friends, and then having experienced as sweltering a summer as that…
Tumblr media
Such an ardently hot-blooded jianghu was presented to everyone; to stand here today-- Because… Because, during the time of Mysterious Lotus Casebook’s initial broadcast, everyone and all the lianluorens must also be thanked. I know there must have been a lot of difficulties when it was first broadcasted, right? To have reached this step today, I think is already very good. I think it is a result of every person’s hard work.
Tumblr media
Just now, when we were off-stage, Yan-laoshi said something I really like; in an instant, I lost my composure. I don’t think fate is something that will come with enough waiting, or something that can be insisted on having. It’s when there comes a day where we stand together and work hard to strive toward a common goal. The sentiments of that moment, I feel, last forever.
Tumblr media
I hope, however many years later, everyone is still together - that lianluorens can still be together. Thank you, everyone. This summer, thank you to every person. Thank you to all my good companions; thank you, every single person.
Tumblr media
Di Feisheng! Until we meet again!
【莲花楼演唱会】 Mysterious Lotus Casebook Concert - 20230916
江湖路远   山高水长  祝 「繁华」 似锦! The roads of the jianghu stretch far; the mountains are lofty, and the rivers are long. I wish your future to be as splendid as an embroidered tapestry! 「追光」 而行  不负初心  愿 永生难忘! Chase the light as you journey; live up to the original intentions of your heart. I hope this will be unforgettable for your lifetime!
Any mistakes are my own.

whats your favorite song on ttpd?
right now it's ttpd (the title track lol) but i havent actually listened to the whole album all the way through since release night and my tastes tend to change as i re-listen so that's subject to change! ttpd just has that sort of 1989/reputation-ish sound which is my favorite kind of music from her lol. my other favs so far are the albatross, clara bow, and the bolter :)

can argue to death with me about how age restrictions on youtube are necessary but i will be DAMNED before i say Hinds Hall deserved to be age restricted. average american child on youtube can listen to H*rbu D*rbu (censoring in hopes to avoid algorithm engagement with the song) which is IOF praising genocidal propaganda, and- big fucking shocker- its not age restricted. i’m 100% sure the only reason Hind’s Hall was restricted was to deliberately suppress and avoid the spread of the song.
#tauto talks#i know damn well that it doesn’t matter that it’s songs in different languages shit in arabic is not free from age restrictions just because#it would not take a kid much leg work for someone to find an english translation if they wanted it#pop culture has an inseparable impact on the public perception of so fucking much and it sucks to say but i bet some people hadn’t had#everything delivered in a way that made them care#macklemore has a weird history of social activism in his music i apologize every day for making fun of him in highschool for thrift shop#like his song kevin does a lot to tackle americas overprescription to addiction to jail or death pipeline#it is sympathetic to the experience of an addict in ways a lot of people generally in society are not#this song did a bit to turn perspective to industries at fault and not the individual suffering#so watching hinds hall be age restricted? feels deliberate. as every move of suppression has felt#feeling particularly full of grief and hate today because i graduate soon#i can only think of every writer like me who did not get to see the stage like i will and it aches#stories the world will never see because it removed the chance#it’s almost like the youth of america are some of the most vibrant and opinionated and energetic parts of the population. youth affords time#change spreading like wildfire cannot be put out as fast as it grows#keep burning#free palestine#palestine#gaza genocide#free gaza#eyes on rafah#eyes on sudan#eyes on congo#eyes on darfur#liberate the world#hoping a swift but painful death to colonization

Kiseki: Dear To Me Ending OST
ok I swear this is the last one (I think I'm in a rush bc I'm gg to be busy soon...). this is my translation for the ending OST which also played in the BaiFan reunion in Ep 11
*Disclaimer: There is no 1-1 translation from mandarin to english and direct translations don’t always make sense so each person’s interpretation can be different!
原�� 我没有资格再爱你
It turns out I no longer have the right to love you
天地的距离 遥远地让我窒息
This distance between heaven and earth, is so yawning that it's suffocating
难道是 飞鸟爱上了鱼
Is this actually an impossible love
傻得可以 一直默默相信著
I'm so foolish to keep believing...
我终于 可以忘了 不再对你死心塌地
I can finally forget that I'll no longer be devoted to you
那个是 谁也 到不了 的地方
That place is somewhere no one can reach
不想说 我都懂
Even without saying I understand
我已经忘了爱 忘了寂寞
I've forgotten about love and forgotten about loneliness
已忘记爱 给过的承诺
Already forgotten about the promise made in love
我已经忘了痛 忘了所有难受
I've already forgotten the pain and forgotten all the hurt
沸腾炙热的 作贱的是我
This passionate love, I'm the shameless one
失而复得的幸福 告诉我 能持续多久
This happiness I've lost and regained, tell me, how long can it last
溃堤的暗潮汹涌 说好不让眼泪 一直流
The raging undercurrents against the embankment, I've promised to cry no longer
原来 我没有资格再爱你
It turns out I no longer have the right to love you
天地的距离 遥远地让我窒息
This distance between heaven and earth, is so yawning that it's suffocating
难道是 飞鸟爱上了鱼
Is this actually an impossible love
傻得可以 一直默默相信著 奇迹
I'm so foolish to keep believing in a miracle

Professor Layton and the Eternal Diva
PART 15
〚FIRST〛〚PREV〛〚NEXT〛
Disclaimer: This is a fan-translation for the Japan-exclusive novellisation of the movie Professor Layton and the Eternal Diva. The original novel was written by Aya Matsui under the supervision of Akihiro Hino, and belongs to Level-5.
This translation only aims to be a pleasant read for non-Japanese fans, nothing more: I made a few deliberate changes while translating in order to get the writing style closer to what is usually found in English fanfictions, as the Japanese storytelling can sometimes be different than what we are used to.

☆ Melina Whistler
Yes…
I could remember it clearly.
The unparalleled sense of fear, of entrapment and desolation, when I was sent into the body of someone else…
I looked for a place to hide, but there was nowhere to.
Everything was cold… I could hardly breathe.
I couldn’t stay here! Please, someone let me out!
I screamed desperately, but no one could hear me.
I kept pleading to someone I couldn’t see.
Please, I don’t want to stay here either. But I can’t leave. I have to stay here…
“Melina—Is that you, Melina?”
I had heard a familiar voice.
I could hear… or rather, I could feel it.
I couldn’t see her, but I knew that Janice was close by.
“Janice…?”
“Melina! This is incredible. I can’t believe you are so close to me…”
“I’m sorry, Janice! I shouldn’t be here. I’ll disappear right now… Somehow, I’ll find a way to do that!”
“No, you can’t!”
“Janice!?”
“I’ve just found you again… Do you realise how much I missed you? How much I missed my best friend while you were gone…”
“But, Janice…”
“It’s okay, Melina… I can’t let you go on like this.”
Suddenly, I had felt something shifting.
The sense of fear and desolation disappeared…
“Janice!”
Her voice was moving away.
“This isn’t just for you. This is also for me. Melina, you may not understand, but the grief and suffering of those left behind is so strong…”
I know, Janice…
I had felt Papa’s grief and pain even after I had lost my body…
“You have to understand, Melina. Losing my best friend not once, but twice, would surely break my heart…”
Before I knew it, I was slowly becoming familiar with Janice’s body, as if guided by the waves of the sea.
I had been spoiled by her heartfelt friendship…
At that moment…
The sound of slow clapping brought me back to reality.
It was Descole. The man who had used Papa’s love for me to draw him into his evil ways…
“Excellent. I did not realise that the memory copying had been successful… So congratulations, Whistler, you’ve achieved your goal.”
It was no wonder that you hadn’t noticed, Descole. Someone like you would never understand Janice’s kindness, or the nobility of sacrificing oneself in order to keep others alive.
“Oh, oh my God…”
Poor Papa… He was completely confused.
I looked straight into his eyes. Papa… I needed him to understand my feelings.
“At some point, I started to realise that this was wrong. I can’t live my life at the expense of my friend.”
I told him my honest thoughts.
“It was you who wrote to me, wasn’t it?”
Professor Layton…
I… No, we both wrote that letter. Janice’s voice had become inaudible to me, but our hearts were still communicating.
“It was the right choice to choose you, Professor. I thought you would be able to stop Papa… Just like I wanted him to stop.”
Isn’t that right, Janice?
It was just as you told me before.
“There is no puzzle that Professor Layton can’t solve, Melina.”
“I can’t stay in her body forever… But as long as this device exists, Papa will continue to copy my memories.”
“Melina…”
Papa’s eyes… They were looking at me, not at Janice.
“I had heard a lot about the Professor from Janice. She admired you so much…”
I’m sorry, Janice… I said it.
As soon as you gave me your life, I had realised how much the professor meant to you…
When I first met him on the Crown Petone, I made my most cherished memories. The times when he solved puzzles… That time when we were talking on the beach… That time when we were riding that makeshift helicopter that we had built… I was never alone.
Papa’s voice was trembling.
“Melina, I… This was all for you…”
“Thank you, Papa… I appreciate how you feel. But, please… These horrendous things have to stop now.”
“I just couldn’t accept a life without my beloved daughter… So I…”
At that moment— The whole room was struck by a tremendous quake.
“Professor, the ceiling!”
With a roar, the ceiling above us was split in two, as we all stood under it in stunned shock.
Then Descole took my arm.
“Melina!”
In a flash, Descole ran up the stairs leading to the Detragan and set me down.
A pack of wolves popped out and surrounded everyone. They all let out a terrifying howl then stood menacingly, ready to pounce on anyone at any moment.
“What are you doing, Descole!?”
“I needed Melina’s memories to achieve my true goal,” he replied coldly, standing right next to me.
“Your true goal…?” Papa asked in confusion.
I was with him on this one… I had no idea what this was about either. What could he possibly need my memories for? What could that mean?
Descole twirled his cloak and pointed to the ceiling.
“The resurrection of Ambrosia!”
The ceiling was painted with the Ambrosian crest… The Kingdom of Immortality.
“It all started when I discovered their coat of arms in its entirety…”
Descole turned to the professor and sent him a condescending look.
“Layton, what do you think these symbols mean?”
The coat of arms had a design reminiscent of a king and queen, surrounded by a vast number of lines, dots and jagged patterns…
The professor soon gasped in realisation. “…It’s a music sheet!”
“Correct. A music sheet, written in the Ambrosian way.”
Descole walked over to the Detragan and reached for a sheet music.
“In other words, the coat of arms is inscribed with the first key required to open the door to Ambrosia: a song that could be called ‘A Song of the Stars.’”
“A ‘Song of the Stars’…!?” Luke repeated incredulously.
“The second key is you, Melina.”
I could not believe my ears. “Me… the second key?”
The resurrection of Ambrosia, keys to open a door… I did not understand.
“The first key alone was not enough to revive Ambrosia. This was when I realised that the crest also hinted at the existence of a second key…”
The professor instantly resonated. “The ‘Song of the Sea’!”
Descole slowly took my hand with an icy smile. His grip was just as cold as his face.
“The stars, and the sea. When the two melodies are combined, Ambrosia will be revived.”
“I didn’t realise… that he was after the kingdom itself,” Papa slowly shook his head in shame.
“Alas, by the time the puzzle of the crest had been solved… The only person who had an accurate memory of the second key could no longer sing…”
So that was what this was all about.
The ‘Song of the Sea’… It was the song that the sea around Ambrosia had taught me.
Ever since we had moved to this island so I could recuperate from my illness, I had spent every day gazing out at it. Walking along the beach, or standing on my balcony, with the feeling of the sea breeze embracing me…
It wasn’t long before I had become aware of the melody that the sea was bringing me.
The wind, blowing past the reefs jutting out from the shore, would sing the same song to me every day. The waves breaking onto the shore would add to the music, creating a pleasant harmony, like a small ensemble.
Soon, I had unconsciously began to hum that very beautiful and somewhat nostalgic melody. When the sea and the song were joined together, it had given me a sense of heartfelt sincerity. It was soothing… and it made me happy, as I felt surrounded by a shower of invisible music.
Descole put his hand on one of the Detragan’s levers.
“Even though some memories were left behind… I wanted a perfect copy, more than Whistler did!”
He pulled the lever. Immediately after, the staircase exploded and bright lights flashed on the wall.
The smoke from the explosion blocked my view.

#professor layton#layton's book club#melina whistler#janice quatlane#oswald whistler#jean descole#hershel layton#eternal diva#eternal diva novel#translation#professor layton and the eternal diva#ayo this part was so WILD#This is why I'm transcribing this stuff. Japanese version cleared up SO many questions that the localisations brushed off.#like how the English & French dubs make it sound like all three songs were written on the Ambrosian seal#while in fact the original version explains that only the song of the stars (+ sun) + a drawing of the sea (+ sun) are there.#So basically it seems like we can deduce here a full timeline of how things went!#Step 1: Des steps foot on Ambrosia and discovers the first known instance of the complete crest.#Step 2: He figures out the Song of the Stars from the music sheet on the crest#and likely deduces that it's the key to reviving Ambrosia.#Step 3: He plays the song of the stars and it doesn't work. He looks at the crest again and sees the drawing of the sea.#He deduces that there is another key related to the sea. Somehow he figures out that there is only one person in the world who knows it.#(I have a hypothesis about the why and how but I'll leave that for later since this hypothesis lacks solid evidence.)#Step 4: Des figures out (somehow) that this “one person in the whole world” is Melina.#Step 5: Melina is sick so he uses that as an excuse to have the Whistlers move to Ambrosia and live inside the black castle he built.#His excuse for bringing them there is that the ocean breeze will do some good to her health.#Step 6: Melina is healthy enough to walk on the shore a few times and she notices that the sea sings to her. She learns the song of the sea#Unfortunately she is already too sick to sing it properly so Descole can't use her. And soon after that she dies.#Step 7: Des and Whistler had been prepared for that eventuality and copied her memories with the Detragan. So they just need a host for her#Des only was able to get his hands on the song of the sea when Melina learned it. And she never wrote it down before dying.#See the music sheet that Layton plays to Nina? It's the song of the sea. Sure. But it's incomplete. It only has the first half.

I need everyone to get on bokuaka with brillas by león laguerri bc that song suits them so well. A rough translation of the chorus of the song is.
You shine, you shine so prettily and we shine together between (among idk) eyelashes. Divine, divine smile, a hug from the moon, a full moon.
