I love this song to bits. Both the lyrics and arrangement are so much fun and well suited to Aiba's voice. I think understanding the lyrics makes it 100% more enjoyable so I've decided to translate it.

It's a very sweet song about a problem so many guys have.... Aiba's fallen into the "best friend trap" with a girl he likes... and she's showering ( Read more... )

Nino's songs are always simultaneously most fun and most frustrating to translate. He has such a beautiful simplicity in his Japanese lyrics that is so difficult to make sound right in English. I'm sure it's been translated a lot already, but I wanted to write up my version before I see anyone else's~

GENDER-REVERSAL QUESTIONS!

The theme of “Ooku” is male-female role reversal. So from the angle of “what if you were a girl?”, we asked a bewildered yet increasingly drawn-in Nino some never-heard-before questions.

Today I'm filling v_rosesandwine 's request of "something about Aiba!"

In this interview Aiba gives some behind-the-scenes stories about the first day of filming, talks about his birthday celebrations with his co-stars and bandmates and informs us that only one member of Arashi has got him a present ("so far")!

Translation of the Matsumiya duet "Mou inai... nai", as requested by strikingtears 
I'm glad to have received this request because it's a pretty song, and I didn't realise it wasn't already translated somewhere!
Hope you enjoy the translation~

(Apologies for spamming everyone with lyrics, this will be the last post for today! ^^;)

みんなさん、あけましておめでとうございま～す！
Happy new year everyone! ♥

A little New Year translation present for y'all. (Because nothing is better for a New Year hangover than snuggling up in bed with a cup of tea translating Myojo.)

At the back of Myojo there is a really cute comic strip section which shows some of the behind-the-scenes moments from the photoshoots ( Read more... )

I bought Wink Up for the first time in a while and was reading through the message board pages... Which led to wanting to read through some old Ohmiya entries. I thought I'd translate and share a whole bunch starting from 2007. 4 years of pure Ohmiya fanservice ♥ (Including 1 guest appearance from Chinen.) Enjoy!
