This song reminds me of the character image songs from Gundam Wing. Though given miko's love for Sailor Moon, maybe that's the "senshi" (soldier) she was thinking of. I've opted not to do a full translation of miko's blog post for this song, because a lot of it is about a show they were preparing …
exist†trace – Keiyaku
There aren't any English or Spanish translations of this song, not that I could find posted publicly anyway, and I wonder if that's because the song isn't popular (I don't know whether it is or isn't) or because people are thinking about it too hard and think it can't be what it sounds like. It's …
exist†trace – GINGER
So much for a schedule... (^o^;) I started doing this back in early June to have it ready for the 9th, but got stuck on several things. The first was that I didn't recognize a reference to a proverb, so while I thought I understood what was going on, I couldn't justify my interpretation. The …
exist†trace – Daybreak ~Juu-san Gatsu no Shikisai~
Things in the US have both changed and remained the same since the last time I posted something. They've changed because of the protests going on. But the protests are happening largely because things have stayed the same: we continue to see unarmed Black people murdered in this country at the hands of armed law …

Sailor Moon Redraw
Having just finished Final Fantasy VII Remake when the Sailor Moon Redraw meme took off, I knew I had to put Cloud into it. It's been a long time since I did fanart at all, and even longer since I drew Cloud, so it was slow going. Here are some work-in-progress pics, followed by my …
exist†trace — WONDERLAND
Happy May Igu Day! Now that The Air Moon is done, I'd like to get through all the songs on VIRGIN. I'm gonna try to post on the 1st, 9th, and 19th to make it a routine. Though I've done a couple of songs from this album already, I figured I would just go in …
EXILE – Ti Amo
This is a bit of a deviation from my usual fan translation fare, but I see it when I'm scrolling down my iTunes Music Library on my way to exist†trace, so I figured I could translate this too. As passionate as this song is, my main memory of it is not being able to get …
The Air Moon, Afterword
This is it. The last five pages of the MOON PROJECT Document Book The Air Moon. It's taken me just shy of six years' worth of spare time to complete this by myself. Not that I spent every moment of my spare time doing this, but still. I never would have guessed the circumstances under …
exist†trace — Requiem
I missed Igu day, but March 20th is Omi's birthday, so I thought it appropriate to do an exist†trace translation anyway. I picked "Requiem," which unbeknownst to me when I picked it, was written by Omi. Not that it's particularly appropriate for a birthday, but... (苦笑) The lyrics in Japanese are on Rock Lyric. Now, …
The Air Moon, Final Chapter: Crescent, Part 3
A belated Happy New Year, Feliz Año Nuevo, and 明けましておめでとうございます！ Had I gone to Japan to see the KHAOS tour, I would've gone to the Kobe show on the 22nd. So I thought it fitting to try to get another part done at this time. So, let's get back to it. For earlier portions, please …
