Story 6 (part 1)

So I’ve finished Story 6…but only part 1/3, though. Since this chapter was longer than previous ones, it got me into slump back then. And in order to get back on my feet again, I needed the feeling of doing any progress, so I had to publish what little I’ve got now. So bear with me.

I usually can’t do anything under pressure and when people wait for me I get petrified, which puts me into even more pressure, so getting over that was really hard. Right now I’m really tired and I have a full day of work tomorrow. Don’t know what to say. Need some sleep. And also need an editor if possible. First four chs suck, though maybe actually all of them do. If you are interested, please leave a comment. I suck at interacting with people but I hope we can figure something out.

Lent lily (Translyrics)

I wonder why I always end up lonely inside
I wonder why I always end up wanting to cry
And for some reason when I make a wish to disappear I end up bursting into tears

It’s only when I have you staying here by my side
that I feel happiness I can’t help wondering why
And while I still don’t get a thing
I’m falling down

A hospital ward is dark, a thread is tied
So many times my-mind-goes all blank, and I am
still yet to step into this incomplete life and walk
Or so it feels

When Someone says “How cowardly and worthless” (/Somebody says “How cowardly and worthless”)
With these crumbling, breaking hearts let’s sing a song
And if it is a requiem then
I think I can pull off
a smile that’s bright and strong

All those words, all those words I did know nothing of
It feels like you are the one
that I have heard them from
“I’m scared” “I dread ” “Afraid”
that’s what my anxious little heart tries to convey

When I turned, when I turned into an unbreathable smoke
and a flower, a flower that doesn’t wither at all
no matter what, you were
the only one who’s been looking at me

I wonder why I always end up lonely inside
I wonder why I always end up wanting to cry
And for some reason when I make a wish to disappear I end up bursting into tears

It’s only when I have you staying here by my side
that I feel happiness I can’t help wondering why
I fail to understand but surely that’s
a wonderful thing to be happening, isn’t it?

Since none of us can live on while being all on their own
We live, forcing ourselves, and nothing can be done
But being all alone makes me feel oh so lonely, you know
And then a thought came to me

I thought that I would like to die & die here with you
And then I tried to make a wish for it to come true
Coz while we have our bodies tied together maybe we can pass away together, too

But then you broke into a smile and gave it to me
You smiled the way you always did and gave it to me
I tried to call you, so I said your name out loud with my voice cracking only just a bit

But Even then you wore a smile when looking at me
“But I don’t want to die” you said, still smiling at me
Hey, could you tell me if maybe someday you can forgive this me that acts so selfishly?

I wonder why I always end up lonely inside
I wonder why I always end up wanting to cry
Maybe the reason’s if I make a wish to disappear you’ll still stay by me here?

The last arc of Bleach (fan) – Episode 1 is finally here!

It’s here! I’m so excited! I was actually early for this one (((o(*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)o)))♡

https://youtu.be/FjEtIdoX09g

(I have to figure out how to add a video next time…)

For those who don’t know, that is basically for everyone, I love Bleach. I’m a huge fan. It was my gateway anime and also the first manga I’ve read. I’m perfectly aware of all its faults but I still love it, and if that’s not love I don’t know what it is ;)

It’s been a long time since the official anime has ended and two years now that the manga was finished. There was no news of anime return, so the fans took everything in their own hands and started doing a fan animation of the last arc. And it all started with Retro Ryno, a brave young man, who wasn’t afraid to shoulder such a big project alone. I’ve been following this project of his since JaymesHanson first made a shout out video about it, and I am glad I was able to see his journey of growth. He’s a great guy, go check him out! Now his team got bigger and they have more experience overall, so the episodes should be out faster, just another 5 months for episode 2, oh wait… ;p

Anyways, if you are a Bleach fan or just want to see what a group of dedicated fans can do for their favorite series, go check out an Episode 1 on YouTube: https://youtu.be/FjEtIdoX09g

Also, the voice acting was great, they even got Johnny Yong Bosch, the original dub voice actor, to voice Ichigo 🤩

Have so much to add but Imma go watch the episode release celebration stream now, so till the next time. Bye)

Lose in my head – Picon ft. Hatsune Miku [Lyrics translation]

Here’s the lyrics and the translation for the vocaloid song Lose in my head (頭ん中に負けそうだ) by Picon.

Also, check out his other songs on his YT channel as well. I recommend Lack of sorrow, Airhead (Garando), It was a good day to die and I was human. I love Eve’s cover of Airhead and there is a great English cover of Lack of sorrow by Biscuits and Discontent ;)

Hisashiburi desu ne

It’s been more than a year now since the the last time I posted anything. Not that anyone is reading my posts (at least for now), but for the sake of consistency I will mention that I’ve successfully graduated, got a job, ended up burning out at that job and got another job during the period of my inactivity here and now that I’ve figured out my life a bit, I’m ready, at last, to continue this little endeavor of mine. Yoroshiku ne.

Also, I kind of regret the choice of my alias, drrr why you made me do this. I just feel like I can’t identify with this name anymore. But I haven’t find a replacement yet. How do people even come up with the names? It’s been years and I still can’t come up with anything that will stick. Will I ever find the right one? It’s not like you can keep renaming yourself all the time so how do people pick just one? I’ve recently watched a Netflix series called The Good place and while watching I was like “I am totally Chidi”. An indecisive nerdy person? Yep, that’s me. So what was I talking about again? Ah, yes, if I will ever be able to decide the name, I will leave ErikaWalker behind. Or maybe I should just ask White rabbit for a name and/or become another Alice?…

Random LN description: Dream hackers

Unmotivated Translator’s tale! Ch.1

I’ve discovered now that there are so many translations of Yarukinashi eiyuutan out there (I mean not only in English) and now I’m feeling even more pressure on me. I am an amateur translator and I am so slow that it makes me wonder if I should continue what I’m doing or maybe it’d be better to step aside and leave this novel to someone better than me.

Also, WN translations are so far ahead of me that I’m a little discouraged now. So many chapters to catch up on>< I shouldn’t read them, or I’ll start comparing them with mine. And then I’ll get depressed for sure… Even when I just read the description I was so embarrassed to realize that mine is so horrible (//>////<///) Though I’m not mentally prepared to edit any of my earlier translations, which means I’m stuck with this embarrassment for a while.

On the other hand, I don’t want to step aside and leave this LN for someone else. I started this endeavor with the goal of finishing at least one novel. Even if readers will hate me. I’m doing it for myself, too. It deepens my understanding of Japanese and helps me gain experience in translational work. My earliest works were done when I still had little knowledge of japanese and no experience at all, but now I am more confident in my abilities. I’m not the best, but not the worst either. (At least I hope so😅)

Also, WN translations makes me motivated to pull myself together and get to work. I would’ve done so right now had I not have the thesis that I’m totally supposed to be concentrating on right now. *sad*

I hope that I’ll still have this motivation if I survive the graduation. Ahem, I mean when. 

Tl;dr: I’m not dropping anything, just a little discouraged. But I’ll get over it. 

Okay, that’s more than enough for today.

See ya!

So, first of all, sorry for the delay. Secondly, here is the next story. Thirdly, if you’re interested why it was delayed so much (about 9 month since the last update!), stick with this post till the end.

Story 4/Don’t hate me

Um, hey?…
Shoot, it took me 2 weeks longer than I had initially planned…
m(_  _)m
I beg your pardon.
Now I won’t say when I’m planning to make an update ever again, coz I’m just so bad at sticking to deadlines (not always my fault :/) that you will just end up disappointed in me even more…
But oh well…
Here‘s Story 4 where Princess Elise finally makes an appearance.
