[English Subs DL] VAZZROCK Stage Episode 2 - Petrichor Nostalgie

Hello, hello~! Long time, no post ^^; Life has been such a whirlwind lately, and I've been a lot busier than I anticipated >< I am still working on a few comms and lots of passion projects that I hopefully can post within the next few months! (EnStage and MoriMyu, among other things~) Hopefully I can make a new masterpost of all available subs I have before the year ends (￣▽￣)

All that life rambling aside, I was finally able to work on and fully finish the subtitles for VAZZSta 2! Thank you to Lexie for asking me to work on ROCK DOWN version first~

VAZZSta 2 is pretty heartfelt and wholesome in its own way, with the trademark TsukiPro chaos added into the mix~ Rather than a story about the VZRK boys, it's more of an original story about the original characters told through the VZRK boys' experiences with them. It doesn't really focus on the boys themselves, but I think it's a really solid and beautiful story that deserved to be told~ (〃＾▽＾〃)

The cast was amazing and chaotic as usual, and I can't wait to see what they'll do for VAZZSta 3! AGF 2023 is soon, and with a new theme/AU on the horizon, there are more options for them to work with when it comes to a stage adaptation, and I'm excited to see which one they'll choose~ (Fingers crossed it'll be Taikyoku Denki or Zanshin...!) (≧◡≦)

Blu-ray can still be bought here for those who want a physical copy or for those who just want to support the production! The purchase site is capable of international shipping + accepts PayPal, so it should be accessible for most! ^^

Notes, disclaimers, and link under the cut, enjoy~!

synopsis: Being the manager of a six-member male group is not an easy thing. But you definitely wouldn’t trade your job for anything else!

author’s note: manager!au? i’m in.

You sighed softly, rubbing both temples with your hands. The interview on the breakfast show was starting in a few moments, and most of the band were not ready and had the best time teasing each other or simply refusing to cooperate just like Ayumu.

As a experienced manager, you only looked at your smartwatch – five minutes and twenty-three seconds left, which is quite a lot of time, contrary to appearances. You immediately looked at Shou, who was the leader of this whole six-person kindergarten, and then at Gaku, who was by far the most thoughtful and calm of them all.

“... All right, guys. Focus, focus. Ruka, wear a waistcoat and pants. Don’t run around without clothes. You’ll still get sick.” You walked over to the young man, handing him his outfit for the day, then fixed his hair. “When the interview and performance are over, I’ll take you all out for a delicious dinner, so let’s be in tune tonight, shall we?”

“Yes, Y/N-san! Thank you~!” The man’s smile was sincere, and thoughts of food overshadowed his reluctance to appear on TV program.

Then you looked at the blue-haired and previously mentioned Ayumu sitting on an armchair in the corner of the room, to whom you also approached after a short while. Your warm hand adjusted the collar of his light-colored shirt, and moments later with your free hand you handed him his favorite candy bar covered in milk chocolate.

“After the interview, I’ll buy you another one, ‘kay?” You looked at him fondly, and the twenty-six-year-old nodded. Although Tachibana was an introvert and didn’t like crowds of people nor just talking to others, he felt completely safe and understood with you. Plus, he was getting sweets from you, even though you both knew he shouldn’t have eaten them so much.

Reiji and Haruto finished dressing and asked you to judge the outfits. All you said was that they look very good and manly as always, and will definitely attract the attention of the cameras this morning. Such words for the male idol were a kind of boost, so they smiled triumphantly, silently arguing about which one you like more.

“... What do you think about me, lady Y/N?” Shou asked as he spun around and you just giggled. He always called you per lady or miss.

“You definitely look wonderful. I told you that gloves would be perfect for your style.��� Another smile appeared on your face and the leader just laughed, thanking you for the compliment. “All right, Gaku. Are you ready too?”

“I guess so, could you just tie a button on the back for me?”

“Yes, of course.” You quickly complied with the request of the tall, dark-haired member of the band, and then tapped him on the shoulder, thus signaling that he was ready.

Perfectly with the man’s thanks, the producer invited the whole ROCK DOWN onto the stage with two couches and a table full of snacks. So you smiled at all six of them, giving both thumbs up. Morning interviews were really important in the culture of jrock or jpop bands, so you wanted everything to go your way.

All six moved towards the exit of the locker room, but before they finally left it, each of them gave you a quick but sweet kiss right on the cheek. Stunned, you just shook your head in amusement and shouted a loud ‘Good luck!’ in their direction.

‘Maybe interviews aren’t so bad after all...?’ All six thought, then greeted the host with a low bow.

[ryuukia]

[Translation] Tsukihana Kagura - Stage Play Plot

Ryota and I have been talking about it both here and on twitter, so you already know we were working (or more like cracking our brains) on this.

Let me say this first, the entire team (Ryota and Chrome) agreed this is more Chinese than Japanese and you can’t change our minds ヽ(＿　＿ヽ) // the kanji, the horror. Kudos to those two for suffering with me (aka assisting me and helping out with the proofreading).

If you like my work, consider donating or commissioning me, I use all the money I receive to get (rare?) items like this and translate them. The link is at the bottom of the post~ 

Please don’t repost/reuse/retranslate my work. Likes and reblogs are appreciated.

Paying no mind to the sounds of this fleeting world, the King of Flowers threads the dance of Tsukihana Kagura.

A [song]. Yet not a [song].

A [dance]. Yet not a [dance].

Even without the honors from the so-called [King of Flowers], a celebration where the [flowers] dance, the “Tsukihana Festival”, shall begin!

―—— Not here, somewhere apart from this world.

There lie twelve island countries, floating above the ocean in a flower-like shape. Once every few years, in each of these countries, those who live in grace and are referred to as [flowers], shall compete not with their swords, but with their beauty.

World View

■ The World

This world consists of 13 countries floating above the ocean.

Lying in the centre of the world is a large island called “Mushiki”. Islands of about the same size surround Mushiki radially, as if they were a flower blooming over a large desert. The appearance likewise makes the residents refer to themselves and these countries as “flowers”.

■ The History of the World

① Prehistoric Era

There was a time when the 13 islands were joined by land, forming one continent.

In the centre of the continent rested a massive volcano named Kataku, which converged the entire volcanic activity from the area and actively erupted on countless occasions.

As a result, the ground around the base of the volcano is thought to have expanded, eventually becoming large enough to be called a continent.

This vast land expanded radially along the mountain range until it divided together with some neighbouring areas and developed their own individual ecosystems.

Somewhere in the northern part of the continent, humanity ended up planting its roots.

Following their migration towards the south, their area of activity broadened and it seemed soon the entire continent became inhabited.

② Antiquity (First Half)

❶ [The First Blooming]  - Before and After (approximately 600 000~10 000 years ago)

The large-scale seismic shift which occurred due to a tectonic plate rift and also caused the radial fragmentation of the continent, then provoked a massive eruption from the Kataku Volcano. This was later named ‘The First Blooming’. 

The tremendous force of the eruption gave birth to an enormous caldera in the centre of the continent (later becoming the inland sea). Subsequently, the plate rifts and the caldera led to the separation of the continent into different areas.

Scattered in various regions and unable to come in contact with each other, mankind gave up on further exchanges from that point on and all areas followed their own evolution and development.

❷ Kurobana Period (approximately 10 000~4000 years ago)

The period of time when the Kataku Volcano and its volcanic chain became dormant.

As the climate and the environment regained their stability, humanity once again started to practice exchanges between regions. When mankind proceeded to share the knowledge and techniques they developed in separation, their cultural level instantly improved.

The construction of large cities brought along a drastic increase in population numbers, and soon countries were born in every zone. 

‘Shikkoku’ and ‘Geppaku’, the oldest existing countries, are said to have been born around this time.

❸ Shirohana Period (approximately 4000~1300 years ago)

Around this time, almost the entire continent had a cultural living secured. Moreover, disciplines like academics and arts were flourishing.

The exchanges between the nations became more and more popular, but at the same time, attracted conflicts and clashes due to differences in values and ideologies.

❹ Akahana Period (approximately 1300~1000 years ago)

Starting with the small conflicts between fellow small countries and continuing with the head-on collisions of the major nations, this time period brought on the first large-scale war in history.

In a world where a diverse set of values and ideologies exist, fires that have started cannot be quenched easily. Furthermore, advancements in technology and the invention of gunpowder and explosives supported those ideologies. Under the principles of each island’s doctrine, they were to send out one great candidate to determine who will be the Great Ruler of all nations in order to unify the continent. The remaining islands would stand together with the champion of the world.

As war or disputes would always occur somewhere, the public order domain had suffered the most throughout the world.

A lot of blood was shed even outside the battlefield.

From that point on, the entire continent was thrown into chaos for around 300 years, a period known as the dark age.

❺ [The Second Blooming] - Before and After (approximately 1000 years ago)

The chaos installed by the dark age came forcefully to an end as another seismic shift hit the continent and the Kataku Volcano released another violent eruption (known as ‘The Second Blooming’). 

The valley created around the volcano by the rift expanded even further and was flooded by seawater, separating the 13 islands completely.

③ Antiquity (Second Half)

❶ [The Second Blooming] - Before and After (approximately 1000 years ago)

The unexpected calamity that divided the 13 islands completely should have eliminated all life, including humanity.

However, even though humans resorted to quite a substantial number of sacrifices, they tried to make it through the crisis with their own power, too.

Countries that foresaw the large-scale eruption tried to minimize casualties and joined hands.

Anticipating what could happen in the future, people made physical walls using special techniques, analysed scientific data, geology, etc…...

The countries that opted to join forces and brought pieces of their own wisdom managed to survive The Second Blooming, becoming the twelve countries that exist in the present.

❷ Tsukihana Period (approximately 1000 years ago~present)

Because of the previous calamities, much knowledge and craft skills were lost. Humanity’s history continued. However, compared to the Second Blooming, the loss of civilization development was significantly less. (It has been said that roughly 1000 years of cultural advancement had been undone.)

In relation to this, engineering and techniques that were often used by the military were strictly governed by the National Institution in order to avoid a repeat of the Akahana Period’s tragedy. It seemed as though they purposely abdicated themselves as well. ※ Studies call these techniques and knowledge that were lost and could not be reproduced again as Pre-Blooming Techniques or “Budding Techniques”.

The 12 nations wrote the following joint declaration:

① War must be abandoned once and for all in order to ensure permanent peace. ② The path to mutual understanding, mutual support, and mutual growth shall be paved through dialogue and not through military power.

“The bloodshed is over. We narrow our eyes as we look to the sun, and when the moon glimmers above our heads in this very sky, we shall bloom into dignified flowers.” (The final paragraph of the joint declaration)

Four years have passed since this declaration was signed.

The first Tsukihana Festival is about to start.

■ The Current Circumstances of the World

■ A World of Harmony ■

In the next 100 years following The Second Blooming, the twelve nations’ miraculous efforts to protect the joint declaration managed to keep any dispute or confrontation on a low scale.

All the countries dropped their weapons in favour of a peaceful world.

■ The Council of the Twelve Nations ■

① As border crossing was still a major problem, the nations have decided to resolve rising conflicts by means of thorough discussions and assembled the highest ranking decision-making body known as the “The Council of the Twelve Nations”. 

② The Council of the Twelve Nations is hosted by an appointed country for only four years, and it cannot be elected successively. If a country doesn’t become a host for more than 20 years, the following year it is automatically appointed.

③ The hosting nation’s leader will be dispatched to the official residence for hosts located in Mushiki. In order to avoid any emergencies, the commander of the Allied Forces is also dispatched together with them.

④ The nations have adopted a “rule by majority” policy and should there be a case where the votes are tied 6 to 6, the Council will adapt the plan suggested by the host country.

■ Deciding the Host Country for the Tsukihana Festival ■

The Chairman of the Twelve Nations Council is one who holds tremendous political power. In order to avoid military conflict, the Chairman is elected through the Tsukihana Festival wherein the nations battle in the fine arts of kagura.

This originates from the legend about a person who danced the Kagura and calmed the volcano during the Second Blooming.

Although the idea of fighting with “beauty” instead of “strength” has a strong political connotation for the common people, it also offers a strong sense of recreation for them. It is evidence of how peaceful the world actually is.

Tsukihana Festival

■ About the Tsukihana Festival ① The Significance Behind the Tsukihana Festival 

As mentioned before, despite the political implications behind the selection of the country that will host the Tsukihana Festival, it is generally a major recreational event that surpasses even the national framework. (Reference: ‘Deciding the Host Country for the Tsukihana Festival’ from ‘World View’, page 8)

After the hosting country is decided, the chairman (king) of the twelve nations (flowers) is named ‘King of Flowers’.

② Summary

A brief summary of the Tsukihana Festival is presented below.

■ It is held on a special site located in the centre of the world, on the Mushiki Island every four years.

■ In addition to the "Hana Awase" that determines the greatest "King of Flowers", there will also be a collection of (see below): theater programs, amusements, performances, and exhibits from each nation. People from all across the continent come, items are gathered, and money is collected.

A part of the profit earned from the festival goes to the Council of the Twelve Nations.

■ The festival and the Hana Awase gets broadcast in real-time using combined technologies from Mokuran and Geppaku.

■ Hana Awase 

The representatives for each country will dance a kagura performance that incorporates their nation’s techniques, music, and expressions. They compete against each other with these concepts of “beauty.”

The dancers who participate as the representatives for their nations (flowers), are hence called “Flower Dancers”. This was born under the concept of: “Kagura dancers are not people but are flowers when they dance.” As such, the dancers refer to themselves with a “flower name” for the performance.

Because the nation’s dignity is at stake, it has since been a great honor for someone to be chosen as a “Flower Dancer.”

❶ The Process of Selecting Flower Dancers

Since each nation is essentially able to decide freely, the standards and methods for choosing vary from one nation to the other.  

In general, public announcements are made and the participants are decided through domestic screening. In addition, there are nations where a certain family carries the tradition generationally, nations who determine dancers via fortune-telling, nations that choose from the vocational schools that train dancers, and so on.

❷ Requirements for Becoming a Flower Dancer

Some nations have a very detailed list of requirements, but the most common ones for the Twelve Nations are:

More than three generations of their family must have been a part of the country.

They should be physically and mentally healthy.

Once the Dancer has become the King of Flowers, it is impossible for them to be re-elected.

There are very simple rules that should be followed regardless of age or gender.

Essentially, as long as they haven’t become the King of Flowers yet, they can be participants for as many times as they want (though, they may be restricted accordingly due to their own nation’s policies).

For this reason, it is not rare to hear of people who have dedicated most of their life to the Hana Awase. 

❸ Rules Regarding the Dances for the Hana Awase

Failure to comply with the rules will result in disqualification.

The time allotted is 10 minutes.

Props and other such tools can be brought and used, but things larger than the dancer or things that can move sporadically (like machines, skills, any form of magic) are not allowed.

Do not look down on, attack, or criticize another dancer or another participating nation.

Costumes, choreography, music, and other such expressions that are sexual, violent, or abusive in nature, as well as any conduct that violates public order and morals are strictly not allowed. 

Each nation should have a total of 10 dancers participating.

Tsukihana Kagura

■ About Tsukihana Kagura ❶  The dances performed at the Tsukihana Festival, especially for Hana Awase, are referred to as “Tsukihana Kagura.”

❷ Although the dance is called ‘Kagura’, it is not necessarily dedicated to a “god.” Since this is a world where a wide variety of ideologies and religious views co-exist, there are various perceptions of “god”. In addition, there are also those who are non-believers. Therefore, the “Tsukihana Kagura” is not dedicated to a specific “god” but rather, a dance for personal beliefs. It is dedicated to praying for each nation’s permanent peace and well-being.

❸ In a world where “beauty” is used instead of mere “strength,” performing arts like dancing are highly regarded as a symbol of “beauty.” Courtship, farewell, joy, sorrow. There are various songs and dances for all of these instances.

Paying no mind to the sounds of this fleeting world, the King of Flowers threads the dance of Tsukihana Kagura.

T/N: (prepare yourself, this will be a ride)

Kataku (花托) means 'torus' or 'receptacle' and it's (botany) the thickened part of a stem from which the flower organs grow. Look up some flower diagrams and you'll it looks a bit like the volcano sketch.

Literally translated, tsukimi udon (月見うどん) means 'moon viewing udon'

Kudukiri (葛きり) is 'kudzu starch noodles'

Hana Awase (花あわせ) can be translated 'Flower(s) Gathering'

Kagura (神楽) is a bit more tricky. 神 means 'god' and 楽 means 'music/comfort', so basically something like 'god entertainment'. You could think of it as ancient Shinto music and dancing I suppose.

New Ideas~

(Pssst *whispers* Hey whoever bought the Heart No Kuni no Alice stage play DVD with my CDJapan affiliate code, come talk to me or on twitter about HnKnA, the fandom is so small T_T My favorite characters are Boris and Julius! Also thank you for your support~)

Now to what I actually wanted to talk about: Soundcloud recently removed nearly all Tsukiuta/Tsukipro/Vazzrock music (most likely due to Tsukino Productions getting smart and auto-copyright striking everything).  It makes me sad since that was how I got into these series in the first place: being able to sample and stream the music and fall in love with it because let’s face it, who’s going to buy like 20 CDs of a group they don’t know about in order to see if they’re going to like the music or not? Luckily the Growth drama tracks I uploaded a year ago are still on Soudcloud so you can still listen to those there.

I was thinking about using the CDJapan points I receive from my affiliate link to buy CDs and share the music publicly on Google Drive or Mega, unless someone suggests another good place to stream music like Soundcloud. I don’t have much space to keep CDs, so ideally I’d like to give them away once I rip the files from them. The buyer would only have to pay for the cost of shipping.

As for which CDs I would use the points on, I think it would be fair if the person/people who are using my affiliate code get to choose since they are basically supplying the points I receive. I’d limit it to maybe 5 CDs to pick from and they can vote for which one they want purchased.

Sorry this was kind of long, I’m just trying to brainstorm new ways to support the fandom since I’m so grateful for those that originally shared their files on Soundcloud and for those that support this blog through my CDJapan affiliate link! I want to be able to use the commission I receive from there to give back to the fandom!! (As always, the link is in my bio and on the desktop version of this blog.) Let me know what you think in the replies or even send an anon ask. I’m curious if my idea is even viable lol.

[Translation] Machine Elements - Cast Presentation: SolidS

I’ve been gone far too long for comfort LOL But, I’ve gotten more free time now since most IRL stuff I have to take care of are over~ 

Continuing with the Machine Elements lore, we have SolidS up next~ Gosh, translating these really makes us appreciate all the hard work that TsukiPro puts into their AUs, huh? Anyways, here’s the cast presentation for SolidS! Up next is QUELL and then VAZZROCK ^^

Also, thank you so much to Deea for the scans and for helping with the editing for the previous Machine Elements posts~!

Under the cut, enjoy~!

TAKAMURA SHIKI

My my, it’s quite noisy…”

PROFILE:

NAME: Takamura Shiki

GUILD: SolidS (※Guildmaster)

BASE: Machine City

☐ A young man who was once given the title as the youngest “Meister” and craftsman in history. Although he started his own guild as a challenge for himself, he did so under the pretense that he was refusing the invitation of the current existing guild. As a result, he was working alone for quite some time. Two years have passed and half-way through, his closest friend Rikka had joined the guild. Soon after, Tsubasa became a member as well.

☐ Since he was surrounded by fire from a young age, he has been fascinated by the element. As such, he has developed multiple tools to be able to use fire. He has however, remained indifferent to the profit, glory, fame, and some such things brought on by his developments. He sometimes even forgets to claim rewards and Tsubasa calls him a “work-a-holic idiot” from time to time.

COMMENT:

Good afternoon. I’m SolidS’ Takamura Shiki.

This time, my role is not only a “music idiot” but a “work-a-holic idiot” as well. Tsubasa laughed when he learned that my role is similar to how I usually am (bitter smile). It seems that SolidS is being targeted by a quite dangerous enemy this time and I take on the appearance of a pretty elegant gentleman… Will there be a fight happening in the second half? Please look forward to it in the theater. We’ll be waiting for you.

OKUI TSUBASA

“Shiki! You’re fi~nally back! Something really troublesome happened while you were away!”

PROFILE:

NAME: Okui Tsubasa

GUILD: SolidS

BASE: Machine City

☐ A young man who acts as SolidS’ publicity leader in place of their Guildmaster who doesn’t bother himself with fame, degree of popularity, achievements, and position. He keeps bothering Shiki with the usual “I wonder if development can be done even without money!”

☐ Though he marches to the beat of his own drum, he proves to be an unusually excellent craftsman. Being excellent in utilizing the powers of fire, he developed a new kind of technology that harnesses the power of the [Sky] that the people admire. Things like using explosions as a means to fly, and traveling a certain fixed distance in the air.

COMMENT:

Welcome to [Machine Elements]!

Are you interested in joining the SolidS guild? I’m Okui Tsubasa, the one who’s kinda like the one in charge of publicity here (laughs). ♪ This time’s costume is kinda steampunk-ish and everyone looks so cool so I think it’d be a fun play to the eyes. There are times in the story that are thrilling and some will make you want to cry but, normally, it’s a really light-hearted adventure story. Everyone’s all excited and giddy, huh? In any case, there’s a scene where I call Shiki a “work-a-holic idiot” and I think you’ll all enjoy that scene, too. ♪

SERA RIKKA

“Alright, leave it to big brother ♪”

PROFILE:

NAME: Sera Rikka

GUILD: SolidS

BASE: Machine City

☐ A young man who is childhood friends with the genius Shiki who was once given the title of youngest “Meister” and craftsman. Though, he possesses quite the skills as a craftsman himself. Contrary to his thin build, he is quite the bold person. A gap that is often mentioned.

☐ He is skilled at utilizing the element of fire and so he is often in charge of handling the parts of the tools that Shiki develops.

☐ He makes decorative ornaments similar to those of the Han people as a simple way of killing time during his free days but, it seems like they became popular to the young women in urban areas. He is also the manager of a branded store that opened half a year ago.

COMMENT:

Hello, I’m Sera Rikka! I’m Guild SolidS’ flourishing first guild member. After seeing Shiki’s attitude and indifference… Tsubasa and Dai laughed. They said that it’s just like the real us.

In this time’s performance, I feel like each of our every day personalities are reflected not only on the character but on the actors themselves. Thanks to that, I feel saved because I don’t feel like I’m acting at all (laughs).

I think the interactions really make for a real good feeling, doesn’t it? Please look forward to it!

MURASE DAI

“... Recently, it’s been getting unruly around the borders.”

PROFILE:

NAME: Murase Dai

GUILD: SolidS

BASE: Machine City

☐ In this world, he is a young genius who is very skilled in the manufacturing of medicine using the element of fire after re-purposing a tool that uses water as its foundation. He is Tsubasa’s childhood friend and they both grew up in an era where “Meisters” were abundant.

☐ When he was very young, he and his younger brother suffered from an illness whose causes were unknown. For some reason, he was the only one who recovered completely and his younger brother passed away. Since then, he has bestowed upon himself a lifelong mission to find a cure for that illness.

☐ He loves sweet things so, he visits the Commercial City of Seiryuu once a month to buy them. He looks forward to eating the latest kinds of sweets.

COMMENT:

I’m SolidS’ Murase Dai. Hello. “This time of year has come again, huh?” is what I’m feeling. To me, this joint stage has kind of become a standard.

Even if you say that we’re all from the same agency, it’s quite rare for us to actually interact like this even if we know each other by name and face so, I think that opportunities like these should be taken advantage of. First thing to do is eat ramen after rehearsals. And then, if all goes well from there, we’ll eat sweets at a cafe.

Recently, it’s been known to people I’m meeting for the first time that I love sweets so, please don’t hesitate to ask (laughs).

[Masterpost] SOARA Drama CD - “Gift”

Hello~! It’s been a really long time since I last posted on Tumblr, but I’m probably going to be more active here again (especially since Twitter is in shambles right now orz)~ Life has been a kick in the butt, but I have been working on a few projects that I’ve been wanting to work on, so hopefully my Tumblr blog will look alive (pun intended www) again! 

Let me kick the blog back up with a literal “Gift” translation~! Thank you to @melynir​ for requesting me for this drama! It is based on the plot of IveSta 6, but watching the stage isn’t really necessary to appreciate what the drama CD wants to convey ^^ IveSta 6 is divided into Growth and SOARA versions, but the drama applies to SOARA only, just in case you’re wondering where Growth and ZIX are.  

VAZZROCK translations are on queue, so please look forward to them as well~

Here are some links to where you can purchase the drama and the stage if you’re interested in checking them out: (CD) Movic, CDJapan | (Stage Play) Movic, CDJapan

Tracklist and translations under the cut, enjoy~!

[TRACKLIST:]

Track 01: “Encounter with an unlucky guy.”

Track 02: “Their Validations”

Track 03: “Let’s make comedy!”

Track 04: “The night before the battle.”

Track 05: “N-1 BATTLE”

Track 06: “N-1 Battle - Aftermath”
