Friday, May 15, 2009 From a forum post: I think Britain's largest contribution to the world was giving most of it back. Apart from a few bits we particularly liked. ROFL. Wednesday, May 13, 2009 Monday, May 11, 2009  Saturday, May 09, 2009 Tuesday, May 05, 2009 I didn't really like the lyrics translation for Yasashii Jikan's theme song, that is found on the linked website. So I'm gonna try my hand at doing it myself, with copious reference to an online Eng-Jap dictionary. Hirahara Ayaka - Ashita (平原綾香 - 明日) ずっとそばにいると Zutto soba ni iru to "I will always be by your side," あんなに言ったのに Anna ni itta no ni Even though you said so, 今はひとり見てる夜空 Ima wa hitori miteru yozora Now I am looking at the night sky alone. はかない約束 Hakanai yakusoku It was an empty promise. きっとこの町なら Kitto kono machi nara Definitely, since we are in this city, どこかですれちがう Dokoka de surechigau We will pass by each other somewhere. そんなときは笑いながら Sonna toki wa warai nagara If at that time, I am smiling as... 逢ったらいいのに Attara ii no ni ...I meet you, it would be good. もう泣かない もう負けない Mou nakanai mou makenai I will stop crying already. I will stop being defeated already. 想い出を越えられる Omoide o koerareru Snap out of the memories 明日があるから Ashita ga aru kara Because there is tomorrow. そっと閉じた本に Sotto tojita hon ni Inside the softly closed book, 続きがあるなら Tsudzuki ga aru nara If there is anything more, まだなにも書かれてない ページがあるだけ Mada nani mo kakaretenai Peeji(pages) ga aru dake It is only pages on which nothing have been written. もう泣かない もう逃げない Mou nakanai mou nigenai I will stop crying already. I will stop running away already. なつかしい夢だって Natsukashii yume datte Although I will miss this dream I'm in, 終わりじゃないもの Owari ja nai mono it is a dream that has no end. あの星屑 あの輝き Ano hoshikuzu ano kagayaki That stardust, that brilliance, 手を伸ばしていま Te o nobashite ima I reach out my hand now, 心にしまおう Kokoro ni shimau And lock it away in my heart. 明日は新しい わたしがはじまる Ashita wa atarashii Watashi ga hajimaru Tomorrow I will start anew.
Theme song for Yasashii Jikan. A really nice, slow song, with excellent music accompaniment. And they used it to great effect in the drama. Finally started watching this after S passed me the DVD almost half a semester ago. I've missed seeing Masami Nagasawa! This time round her character is really immature, breaks plates, throws tantrums and talks bad about people. Good change from the sweet, nice girl-next-door that she's usually cast as. Nice, touching storyline too. Edit: I was wrong about Masami-chan's character. Still ended up the sweet girl-next-door, albeit with a wrist-slitting habit. She acts well, but I hope she gets a chance to break out of that stereotype. Monday, May 04, 2009 Saturday, May 02, 2009 JDrama: 101st Marriage Proposal
It's been almost 20 years since this show was on air, but good plots don't grow old at all. Edit: Well, hell of a way to tell people not to hotlink images. So I downloaded it, and hosted it myself instead. Whatever. |
