So right now I've been reading the Korean trans for Fate/Zero while going back and forth to work and just finished up to Kiritsugu's past in vol.4. And at the end of it this song from Fafner, an anime back from 2004, was written. Since the one that I'm reading is a txt file for downloads I'm not really sure if it was actually written on the book itself, but considering that the English trans ver didn't have it, I guess the person who did the Korean trans just added it.(I can't really check since my actual Japanese copy for the book is in the US)

I used to love this song, not to mention the anime was quite nice too, so I was really surprised to see this, and thinking that this song really does fit what kind of person Emiya Kiritsugu is.

Here's the lyrics in English in case anybody is interested.

[Lyrics]

It's all right if it's foolish
Traces of the dream we look out over... Goodbye,
Days of my youth

Entrusting my body to the current, someday I'll become an adult
Will I become dirty, little by little?

Only the mature fruits are chosen
And cut with a knife before being gulped down

We aimed for Shangri-La- without suppressing our desire,
Covered in daydreams, we kept searching for "freedom"
Now we can say it- this is paradise
Goodbye, days of my youth

We wanted to grab the highest apple
Even if we had to stand on our precious things to reach it

We only notice what's important to us when we lose it
We who are very young are always missing the target

Suppressing happy days makes me feel unstable
Although I'm wounded, I want to fly away
It's all right if it's foolish, the traces of the dream I look out over
Goodbye, days of my youth

The shining sky was dressed in innocence
But it knew everything...

We aimed for Shangri-La- without suppressing our desire,
Covered in daydreams, we kept searching for "freedom"
I'll surely leave the distance behind, knowing my own size
With my inexperienced heart not knowing even that
Now I can say it- this is paradise
Goodbye, days of my youth

Now this really makes me want to rewatch Fafner.(Which I was already having the thought before already lol)
