Something sweet to make up for the
unpleasant Kazuki Yone & Otomate stuff yesterday. ^^;
Kazuki Yone is on twitter off and on. She tweets about personal life mostly, only occasionally about work. She also retweets news about games, CDs, DVDs, and books that she participated in.
I'm translating Hakuoki-related stuff in her twitter, starting from this summer.
July 1st, 20121. [Retweet] AT-X channel is airing all Hakuoki episodes today. It already began.
2. Really?! I'll watch it as I work.
3. I love the sexiness of Sannan-san, and the cut of Sano-san with Nuinui in the season 1 ending song.
4. The flying squirrel jump! It's been a while.
*Flying squirrel jump = Kazama's usual jump with his arms open and coat spread wide.
5. What? Reimeiroku premiere at 9PM? Σ(゚ω゚) Thank you!
6. No... Yamazaki-kun's last... I should start focusing on work before Reimeiroku begins.
7. Shimada-kun's scene in Hekketsuroku opening is so awesome.
8. Waiting impatiently for anime Reimeiroku!! 三三三(*´ω`)
9. Will the opening and ending songs be shown regularly in episode two? Ryu-chan is cheeky as usual. Serizawa-san is sadistic and awesome.
10. For me, the most excited moment was spotting Tonouchi in the crowd, if I'm not mistaken.
11. [Retweet] Fujihara Ryo: Hakuoki Sekkaroku novel "Mei" will be released next month!
July 7th, 20121. When it comes to summer, I want to visit
Shimizuya in Aizu so badly. I love the cold mountain spring, mochi, manju, and tempura with soba so much! My stomach rumbles.
2. I love Aizu.
3. Aizu is like my second homeland. It really grieves me and worries me to see it suffering from the aftermath of the earthquake. I have so many fond memories there that I want to go again and again. That'a show charming it is.
4. I'll try it next time! (Replying to a follower who suggested her
Koike and
Aizuaoi.)
5. I also miss the grilled miso of
Ohide-chaya. Their local sake are masterpiece too!
6. It's because I knew Aizu had been an abundant and beautiful place that it hurts me more to see Aizu become like this. I want to go again when I have time.
7. Speaking of Aizu, I used to go to
Mt. Iimori-yama and
Lake Inawashiro at
Mt. Bandai often. These are memorable places. I've also been to
Bonari Pass a long time ago in winter. I explored the mountain alone and almost got lost.
8. [conversation]
Kazuki: I see Aizu on TV and memories kept flowing out. Sorry. ー三三( ゚ω゚)
Ōbari Masami: Thank you for the enjoyable talk. (^人^) I lived in Aizu Wakamatsu when I was little. Aizu love!
Kazuki: Ōbari-san is from Aizu? Although born in different places, my heart is filled with love for Aizu too! (*´ω`)
Ōbari: I was born in Kanagawa. (^ω^;)> I didn't understand about Aizu War when I was little. Now I want to visit there since it's deeply connected to Shinsengumi.
Kazuki: Kanagawa is a great place! I'm familiar with Aizu so I know its connection with Shinsengumi from old days. Now because of my work I wanted to trace the history of the Boshin War some other time.
Ōbari: For Hakuoki related work, a coverage trip to Hakodate and Kyoto would be more helpful than just reading. (^ω^) I have to go now. Thank you.
Ogura Mitsutoshi: Thank you both for your hard work. Anyway, should I plan a trip to Aizu for Hakuoki staff?
Kazuki: Ogura-san! If you're going, please take me too! (*´ω`)ノ
*Ogura Mitsutoshi = 小倉充俊, the producer of Hakuoki Reimeiroku.
*Ōbari Masami = 大張正己, storyboard of opening songs and Reimeiroku episode 12.
July 10th, 20121. Hakuoki Reimeiroku episode one will begin soon! Waiting!
2. [retweet]
Nakata Jōji's tweet: Hey dog! In another world you talk as if you're a king and treat everyone as mongrel. That's not going to work here. Be prepared!
*Nakata Jōji : seiyuu of Serizawa Kamo in Hakuoki, and Kotomine Kirei in Fate/Zero.
Seki Tomokazu: seiyuu of Ibuki Ryunosuke in Hakuoki, and Gilgamesh in Fate/Zero.
These two were "master and servant" for 2 seasons. XD
3. [conversation]
Ōbari Masami: Continued from previous season, I'm in charge of directing and storyboard of Hakuoki Reimeiroku's opening. Thank you all for watching! (^人^)
Kazuki Yone: Thank you for the beautiful opening as always.
Aug. 7th, 2012[conversation]
mao: Thank you for your help all the time! I love the
cover art of
Hana no Atosaki ♡ I'm following you.(ღ′◡‵)
Kazuki Yone: Thank you for following! I need to thank you for your help all the time as well. Congratulations on releasing "Hana no Atosaki" today. I heard your beautiful song on air. (*´ω`) Thank you very much for letting draw the cover art!
mao: Waaah ((((;゚Д゚))))))) You replied! Thank you! I need to thank you for the beautiful art. ♡ Yoroshiku onegaishimasu!
Kazuki Yone: Me too. Douzou yoroshiku onegaishimasu! (*´▽`)
Sept. 18th, 20121. [retweet]
Nakata Jōji's tweet: Hakuoki Reimeiroku episode 11 will soon begin. In this episode Serizawa will tell Oume about his past. Don't miss it!
2. Since the last 2 episode of Reimeirou is airing now, it's a good time to mention this. For the DVD/BD covers in this series, I was asked to draw an image of the scene with the strongest impression in the 2 episodes within. I wondered what to draw for the last one. But it has to be that sublime scene, right? Dokidoki.
3. That's cool!
4. Looking forward to episode 12. Serizawa-saaan!
5. It's Hakuoki's 4th anniversary? Sorry. I don't even keep track of my own birthday. Happy birthday Hakuoki!
Sept. 24th, 20121. I've updated photos of Kyoto Anime Expo in my blog.
2. I haven't used that blog for a long time and forgot to put long post under "read more". Oh well. There's a little more about the trip in Kyoto. I'll update later.
Sept. 25th, 20121. Reimeiroku DVD/BD will be released tomorrow. Yoroshiku de~su!
2. Tonight is the finale of Reimeiroku. It's the first time I see it on air so I'm just going to sit up-straight to watch it without chatting.
3. Sitting up-straight with carbonated barley in one hand, waiting for Reimeiroku finale to begin.
4. [retweet]
Masami Ōbari's tweet: Hakuoki Reimeiroku finale is on air on Tokyo MX channel! \(●ω●)/
5. I'm speechless, in a good way.
6. To prevent spoilers, I can't say anything more. Anyway thank you very much!
Oct. 5th, 20121. It's out! Reimeiroku vol.2 first edition cover art is Kondou and Okita. Nakajima-sensei's cover art is Okita and Saitou. Please support us!
2. I see a warning about Riko-san's fake signature board, searched, and found a fake signature of mine. *laughs* Looks like someone already bid on it. Be careful. This is fake! [

3. Web auction is an unknown world to me. I'm learning how to make a request on banning this auction.
4. I've reported it as violation of auction policies. Hopefully it'll be banned.(´ω`)
5. Back to work - drawing buttocks. φ=φ(・ω・ 」∠)
6. Thank you all for retweeting about the fake signature. I hope it gets banned soon. It's sad to think someone might be cheated into buying it.
Nov. 15th, 2012Anime Reimeiroku BD/DVD cover art is out. Vol.3 is Sano-san looking after his little brother. Every household needs a big brother Sano. What do you think? The release date is 11/28. Please support us~
Dec. 4th, 2012Vol. 4 is Heisuke and Oume-san. Nakajima-sensei's cover is Kondou-san and Okita in practice suits! That's precious!
Jan. 7th, 2013[retweet] Vol.5! Sample is
here!
It's so touching to see her watch Hakuoki anime and laugh and cry with us fans. And her comments on the cover arts are so sweet. These tweets showed how much she loves Hakuoki. (And no it's not empty flattery or advertising. She didn't do the same for Hiiro no Kakera earlier in 2012, nor the sheep-counting CDs & KamiAso now.)
ヨネさんマジ天使!Yone-san is an angel!
