Kamen Rider Decade | S01E01 

Japanese Drama - 2009, 31 episodes

[jdramastuff]

Kaito Daiki - Kamen Rider Diend in Kamen Rider Decade (2009).

Didn’t Tsukasa tell you? I’m only interested in the treasures hidden in the worlds.

[vickyvicarious]

In today's Dracula Daily entry, there is a part, where Mina talks of Jonathan: "and that he would go through all the past again to win it, if need be. The poor dear meant to have said a part of the past" - somehow this part about "all the past" sounds especially heartbreaking in the (tumblr only I guess) context of all of them being in the time loop. Do you remember if anybody mentioned this last year?

I don't, but to be honest the time loop thing has never been enjoyable to me. It was mildly funny as a one-off joke the first time I saw it, but I burnt out on it pretty quickly. To me, it robs a lot of the meaning from the story, of the victory won in the end, of the hope along the way... Even as more of a joke I just kind of go "but why put them through that again?" and when taking it more seriously/angstily I just find it a sad idea, and not the sort of sad that is tasty for other narrative reasons. I feel the same way (sad but nor my sort) about the time-traveling Quincey idea, actually, so that's another one I've never gone for though I think it got pretty big (though that may just be my impression?). Though that one has a much more complete arc in a 'coming full circle' sense and more tragic but with a finale/closure that the time loop lacks.

All this to say... people may well have mentioned it, but I wouldn't know. I actively avoid/ignore those posts.

Hi! I read your post about report cards and I hope I'm not being insensitive, but can you talk a bit about your "digital archive"? Do you have all your documents in a cloud? Or on an extrenal drive? Its very intriguing. Thanks!

Oh sure. Hope it's ok that I posted this publicly! It's not insensitive at all, I often take away details like that from posts about other stuff :D

I used to keep paper copies of various important documents -- bills, etc -- and I still do keep copies of vital stuff like my birth certificate and home deed. But I reached a point where I just didn't want to deal with paper anymore; it's hard to store, hard to find once you've stored it, heavy, messy, tends to fall apart eventually. So these days if something paper comes across my radar I either scan it or decide it's not worth scanning and throw it out. And some stuff never shows up in paper at all but still needs to be stored somewhere, so I'll save a PDF copy and then file it in my digital archive.

The archive lives on my personal laptop, on the hard drive. It's split into a lot of categories; I have "taxes" which is then broken out by year, I have a small file for each home I've lived in, I have one that has all the cats' medical information in it, one that has all MY medical information in it, some other files for various records. A lot of ephemera, like event tickets or receipts from really special meals, I scan that in and rather than save it, I'll put it into a "yearbook" I make each year and have printed by Shutterfly.

My actual photos are kept separately from the digital archive but are usually sorted in a similar way -- by year, then by event within the year. I clean the photos off my phone pretty much monthly, which makes this easier. (This month I pulled all the photos off my phone, then created a "Europe trip" gallery and re-uploaded a bunch there for the purposes of showing off :D I also have a gallery dedicated to my niece, with backups on my hard drive).

By policy I don't keep important documents in the cloud, although I probably could, it's secure enough these days. As I said, the archive lives on my laptop, but because it is so important and really because EVERYTHING that lives on my laptop (photos, movies, music, etc) is important, I'm extremely rigorous about backing it up -- I have an external drive that's slightly larger than my laptop hard drive, and I back up my entire laptop every week on Sunday afternoon.

chiaki: can you believe kamen rider diend’s actor totani kimito said his character daiki had a bl-like relationship with kamen rider decade, kadoya tsukasa

kanata: yes, I can “believe” it, because I have “eyes”

Wind Breaker DVD/BR Vol. 6 bonus content – Boufuurin Vs Shishitoren Maruhi ㊙ Talk and Battle - Part 1

This is the translation of the vol. 6 bonus with the DVD/Bluray! I did not buy it for the bonus. I did buy it because Umemiya is featured on the cover. I have my priorities right.

There's 3 (4?) main parts to this - (1) Boufuurin x Shishitoren talk, (2) Hiiragi x Sako talk + (3) battle, (4) Boufuurin x Shishitoren battle. The battles are kinda hard to understand without the video, so I'll leave that aside for now and focus on just the talks.

As these are more like talk shows, there's quite a few areas where multiple people are talking over each other; in such instances, I will be omitting some of the stuff being said if it's repetitions or if they do not add on to the main stuff being spoken.

Important: A lot of what NakaYuu says will seem very cold/ indifferent on paper, and unfortunately this is one of those things that get lost in translation. In context, he's actually playing the deadpan fool like his pal Sugitan.

For the rest of my translations, see this post!

Boufuurin x Shishitoren talk

Sakura (CV: Uchida Yuuma - Yuuma)

Umemiya (CV: Nakamura Yuuichi - NakaYuu)

Choji (CV: Totani Toya Kikunosuke - Toya) (t/n: there's this running gag that has an origin I'm unaware of, apparently some people read his name wrongly and called him Totani instead and I admit that for the longest time I really thought it was read as Totani. The 谷 in 戸谷 can be read as either "ya" or "tani", and both are pretty common readings, hence the confusion)

(if anyone wants to hear me ramble about multiple readings for names please DM me I will be so happy to go on this long shpiel about meeting 3 people with 3 different readings of the same character before)

Togame (CV: Umehara Yuuichirou - Umechan) (t/n: yes I'm here to confuse the heck out of you)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yuuma: Hello everyone! I'm the voice actor of Sakura Haruka for the television anime Wind Breaker, Uchida Yuuma!

NakaYuu: Umemiya Hajime's Nakamura Yuuichi! (t/n: he was drawling a lot here wwww)

Toya: Tomiyama Choji's Toya Kikunosuke! (t/n: he is really so cute I want to protecc) (I also cannot emphasise enough just how talented he is; he sounds NOTHING like Choji irl)

Umechan: Togame Jo's Umehara Yuuichiro, thanks for having me.

Everyone: Thanks for having us! (t/n: it's the usual yoroshiku onegaishimasu greeting and I can never figure out how to properly translate it)

Yuuma: Speaking of, to everyone who bought the anime package (i.e. the DVD or blu-ray), will be receiving this special bonus, ehhh. ~It's Wind Breaker~ (comes with sparkles too) everyone.

NakaYuu: That's right.

(everyone chuckles)

Toya: We've even worn these jackets!

NakaYuu: Why are you doing it? (t/n: LMAO)

*everyone laughs*

Umechan: On the other hand, *points at Yuuma and NakaYuu* you're here like this?

Toya: It feels different there. (t/n: this is not an entirely accurate translation, but i'm pretty tired today and don't feel like explaining now. What he said was 気合違いますよ which has a bit more nuance; I'll explain in an edit next time.)

Yuuma: This is my regular...

Umechan: Gakuran? (t/n: this is the style of school uniforms worn by Boufuurin)

NakaYuu: It's not that. *very seriously*

Toya: Yuuma-san's clothes actually of give off a bit of the feel of gakurans...

Yuuma: It's not a gakuran ^_^

***

Yuuma: With that, the four of us from Wind Breaker, Shishitouren and Boufuurin will have a talk with each other.

Everyone (i think): Yes!

Yuuma: It's been a while since we've recorded our lines, and I think there'll be lots of memories we'll be reminiscing upon, but in Wind Breaker, there's often talk of speaking with our fists; Nakamura-san and I first joined from the PV, it's been a while, hasn't it? (t/n: They're referring to a special video they recorded for an event in Shibuya in 2021)

NakaYuu: It's a while back, isn't it?

Yuuma: Around 2021, yes.

NakaYuu: About two years before the anime, I think.

Umechan: It's from before the anime?

NakaYuu: Yes yes yes, when you get to our level it's like that. (t/n: this is absolutely dripping in sarcasm fyi; NakaYuu can only get away with a joke like this cos he's the oldest here) You start getting involved even before the anime is announced.

Yuuma: As for the two of you (Shishitoren), you guys auditioned?

Umechan: Yes...

Toya: We auditioned and received our roles.

Yuuma: You two make a great combo, how was it like performing together?

Umechan: It's my first time working with Toya-kun.

Toya: Yes it is.

Umechan: It was really refreshing. The other cast members, I've met them quite often at other places, so I sort of know how things will turn out with them. It's only Toya-kun I don't know anything about.

Toya: For me, it's my first time meeting most of the cast members, I remember that during the first recording I was really really nervous.

Umechan: I didn't know how it would turn out, but he was very Tomiyama-ish.

Yuuma: That's the matching being done (t/n: this might be a mistranslation; he literally uses "matching" in katakana, I'm not sure if there's an alternative meaning I'm missing out.)

NakaYuu: There's difficulty in reading him. (i.e. in reading his character)

***

Yuuma: Next is the visual commentary part, where we watch the anime while giving comments on it. First up, is this match!

T/N: I'm going to skip some parts and summarise some parts, as it's going to be pretty much impossible to match the dialogue and scene one on one without video

Sakura vs Togame

When Umechan first recorded for Togame, he spoke so slowly he was surprised, and in the end that take was used for the anime. It got easier to speak slowly as he practiced more, but at first he had to make a conscious effort to go slow.

Togame's script also had a lot of markings at the end of words (e.g. dashes), to indicate that the words should be drawn out / spoken slowly.

While filming the fight scenes, they thought quite a lot about what to ad lib and how to draw breaths in between lines. They were told it wasn't necessary to do it for everything, but on the day of recording they decided that they did want to include the ad libs and breaths for the whole thing.

NakaYuu, at the point when Sakura is kicked by Togame with his geta on: Getting kicked by the geta looks bad. (t/n: NO SHIT SHERLOCK)

Umechan: I would've preferred him to wear sneakers, it can absorb the impact a bit.

Yuuma: The geta is really hard.

NakaYuu: Of course it is.

NakaYuu, at the point when Sakura's head is stomped on by Togame with his Geta: That looks bad.

Yuuma: He's a real beast!

Umechan: Everyone, this is fiction.

Yuuma: Please don't try the same thing at home.

Umechan, at the point when Togame took off his geta: If he hadn't taken off his geta, I think he would have won. (t/n: LMAO)

NakaYuu: This is a power down event.

Umechan: His reach is now one geta shorter.

NakaYuui: His reach and power have both dropped. But his grip is stronger now

Umechan: It would've been fine if he hadn't taken it off.

NakaYuu: It's probably cos it feels strange using a weapon when he wants to fight fair and square.

t/n: WHY ARE THEY FEEDING INTO EACH OTHER'S CHAOS

Everyone in turn, when Sakura and Togame kicked each other in the face: The geta. the geta!

Yuuma: It's a good thing he's not wearing the geta.

NakaYuu: If he was wearing the geta he would've won.

Yuuma: Togame is a really great guy, fighting for Choji's sake. Thanks for the great battle! Next is this battle!
