Saiyuki Party translations
My translation kick is still going strong, so here's translations for the first two tracks of the Saiyuki Party drama CD.
Opening
Sanzo: You guys ready?
(a short silence)
Goku: …What was that, sleep talking?
Sanzo: (snores)
Hakkai: So it would appear
Gojyo: Sheesh, what a carefree guy, our Sanzo-sama is. He makes us drive Jeep and then falls dead asleep, what’s with that?
Hakkai: I’m the one driving though.
Gojyo: Hey Monkey, you wake Sanzo up
Goku: No way! And I’m not a monkey, stinky kappa!
Gojyo: What was that? Try saying that one more time
Goku: Stinky kappa, pervy kappa, cockroach baron!
Gojyo: Haa? Cockroach baron?! What the hell is that? Doesn’t make sense, idiot.
Goku: Shut up! If I say you’re a cockroach then you’re a cockroach, stupid! Octopus*!
Gojyo: You little monkey!!
Sanzo: SHUT UP!!!
Goku: Oh, he woke up
Hakkai: Good morning, Sanzo
Sanzo: Ah?
Hakkai: Ah, it’s deteriorating, isn’t it? Your hypotension.
Gojyo: Is it okay to chalk it up to low blood pressure?
(Sanzo searches for something)
Goku: Sanzo, what’s up?
Sanzo: It’s not here.
Gojyo: Ah?
Hakkai: What isn’t here?
Sanzo: The Maten Scripture
(Jeep skids to a stop)
Goku, Hakkai: What?
Gojyo: Hey, hey. You sure you’re not still sleeping?
Sanzo: Your face is still sleeping
Gojyo: I don’t wanna be told that by the guy who doesn’t measure up
(Bamboo clack marking joke)
Hakkai: Oh, I thought your shoulders looked tidier. I wondered if Sanzo too was one of the rumored “cool businessmen”
Sanzo: Don’t think.
Goku: Hey, isn’t it bad if we don’t have the scripture?
Sanzo: It’s excessively bad
(Sanzo lights a cigarette, takes a drag and blows the smoke out)
Gojyo: Hey! Is this a time to be smoking?
Sanzo: Shut up! I’m thinking!
Goku: What about?
Sanzo: Our movements yesterday
Hakkai: Ah, I see. We might remember some clue to help us find it.
Goku: Uh, yesterday we ate breakfast, then ate takoyaki, then ate ice cream, then ate lunch, then defeated some youkai, then ate karaage chicken, then ate dinner, and then ate yakitori!!!
Sanzo: Your memory is too biased
Gojyo: Anyway, doesn’t yakitori fit into dinner?
Hakkai: It’s certain you had it up until the yakitori store, yes? Gojyo spilled sauce on the scripture and Sanzo half-killed him, after all . . .
Gojyo: Man, I thought I was gonna die ther
Goku: Then, right after that we got in Jeep. . . There was no time to lose it!
Hakkai: You’re right . . .
Goku: So, where should we search?
Goku, Gojyo, Hakkai: Hmmm. . .
Sanzo: (notices) Hey, Monkey. What’s that wrapped around your stomach?
Goku: Huh?
Gojyo: It’s the scripture
Goku: Ah, I forgot!
Hakkai: It was cold for the first time in a long time last night
Sanzo: That’s no reason to use it as a replacement for a hip wrap!!!
Hakkai: Ah, well, isn’t it good we found it?
Goku: Ah, he drooled
Sanzo: Stop messing around, idiot monkey!! Hand it over!!!
(scuffling, Sanzo dusts the scripture off)
Sanzo: Damn it, don’t use it so crudely
Goku: But there wasn’t anything else, I didn’t have a choice!
Hakkai: All right, next time Santa comes we’ll request a warm hip wrap
Goku: It’s that way far away?
Gojyo: ‘ch, man. Shoulda known that was what happened. Aah, how long’re we gonna keep going on this trip?
Hakkai: For quite a while more, I should think. At any rate
Goku, Gojyo: This sucks
Hakkai: Ahahahaha. All right.
(Jeeps engine revs)
Hakkai: Shall we head out soon?
Gojyo: Yeah
Goku: I’m starving!
Sanzo: Let’s get out of here.
Hakkai: Yes.
(Jeep drives off)
END.
*Perverts are often referred to as octopus (tako), probably because of the octopus’ tentacles, but also because octopi were the original tentacle monsters way back in the day of ukiyo-e wood block prints
Fireworks
(wind blowing)
Gojyo: You guys ready?
(he gets hit with the fan)
Sanzo: What’s with that posturing? It’s just a fireworks show
Gojyo: Oww. . . What, I just wanted to try saying it once
Hakkai: I understand how you feel
Gojyo: Sanzo, you better watch out. Keep making light of fireworks shows and you’re in for trouble
Hakkai: Did someone make light of a fireworks show and end up in trouble?
Sanzo: Never heard of it
Gojyo: Idiot! Fireworks shows demand extremely careful planning. Where are you gonna watch it from; if it gets really crowded which route are you gonna escort a girl along; that’s where the basics of dating are packed in tight
Goku: But this isn’t a date or nothing
Hakkai: More importantly, do you date, Gojyo?
Gojyo: What’s that supposed to mean?
Hakkai: Aha, I just thought that you omitted that bittersweet process.
Gojyo: You think I’m a dumb beast or something? . . . But if it’s come down to four guys going to a fireworks festival, I guess I’m finished.
Sanzo: Doesn’t look like it’s started
Gojyo: . . . You. . .
Goku: Amazing! There’re so many booths! Yakisoba, takoyaki, frankfurters, caramel apples chocolate bananas!!! I wanna eat ‘em all!!!
Hakkai: Goku, Goku, please calm down
(girls giggle and chat as they walk by)
Girl1: Come on, it’s gonna start soon!
Girl2: Really? Then before that. . .
Gojyo: Woah! The girls in yukata look great! The pink is cute, but the black has a hard to toss out charm too . . . Ehehehehe . . .
Hakkai: Gojyo, please calm down.
Sanzo: Idiots. Leave it alone
Goku: Sanzo, Hakkai, Gojyo! Let’s hurry up and eat something!
Gojyo: Oh, how about takoyaki and beer?
Hakkai: That sounds good. Oh? Where’s Goku?
Sanzo: He’s already in front of the takoyaki stand.
Gojyo, Hakkai: So fast!
(they walk over, and the sounds of sizzling grow louder)
Gojyo: Hey Mister! Add another takoyaki. Oh, and beer too.
Goku: (mouth full) Oh. Hanzo, hu huys hinally hame
Hakkai: Goku, no one can understand what you’re saying.
Gojyo: And you’re eating already?
Goku: (mouth full) Yeah!
Sanzo: Mister. Two beers
Mister: Sure thing
(sizzling continues, interrupted by the loud boom of fireworks and the exclamations of the crowd)
Goku: Wah! Fireworks!
Sanzo: So it’s started
Gojyo: Hooo, people are really getting revved up!
Hakkai: Tamaya*!
Goku: Huh? What’s that?
Hakkai: Ah, I just felt it would be appropriate somehow
Mister: Okay! First, two beers!
Gojyo: Thanks
(gulps some down)
Gojyo: Here, Sanzo
Sanzo: Hn?
(fireworks boom and people cheer)
Goku: It’s so pretty!
Sanzo: Hn. Even though I have to watch it with you bastards
Hakkai: It really is a sour thing seen with only men
Goku: Sour?
Gojyo: (swallows) Next time I’m definitely coming with a beautiful yukata girl
Sanzo: Guys like you always say the same thing every time
Gojyo: Ah? What about you?
Mister: Sorry for the wait. Here’s you takoyaki
Hakkai: Ah, I’ll take that
Mister: Right, all together it’s ￥1700
Sanzo: Yeah . . . . . . . . . on my card
Mister: Woah, woah, sir, you can’t use a card at a stall! You gotta pay in cash
Sanzo: Hey, Hakkai
Hakkai: Oh, I’m sorry, I don’t have any money on me. . .
Sanzo: Gojyo.
(Gojyo sighs and shells out the cash)
Mister: Thank you, come again!
Gojyo: Ah, you guys planned that didn’t you
Sanzo: Fireworks shows demand careful planning, right?
Gojyo: (curses get stuck in his throat)
Hakkai: (mouth full) Oh, ah, hith ith delithuth
Goku: Ah, me too me too! Ooh, wahaha, soo good!!!
Gojyo: Hey Monkey!! You already ate!
Goku: What’s the big deal? Cheapass
Sanzo: All right. Next let’s get shave ice to cleanse the palate
Goku: Yay! Can I eat strawberry and melon both?
Sanzo: Yeah. I’ll eat half.
Goku: Shave ice shave ice! (fades away)
Gojyo: Hey wait! You’re not planning on eating that with my money are you?
Hakkai: Thank you for the food, Gojyo. Shall I have plain syrup?
Gojyo: You, just watch the fireworks, will ya?
Hakkai: Food before flowers, remember?
Goku: (from a little bit away) Wow, the frankfurters look tasty!
Gojyo: Agh, do that after you eat the shave ice, at least!
Goku: (still muffled) And then I want yakisoba and okonomiyaki and caramel apples and chocolate bananas and . . .
Gojyo: Whaaaat?!
Goku: (still muffled) Mister! Gimme three frankfurters!
Gojyo: You stupid monkey!!! (runs toward Goku)
Goku: And two yakisobas and four oko-mmph!
(Gojyo slaps his hand over Goku’s mouth)
Gojyo: Haven’t you eaten enough, Goku-chan?
(bang bang bang! The sound of a toy gun going off)
Hakkai: (clapping) Wonderful! A direct hit
Sanzo: Obviously. Next I’ll aim for that spotted seal figurine
Gojyo: Sanzo. What are you doing
Sanzo: Shooting. You can’t tell by looking?
Gojyo: That’s not what I mean. . .
Sanzo: Money. Pay the man
Gojyo: Haaa? Why do I hafta. . .?
(bang bang bang! Bang!)
Sanzo: Huh? Strange. I’m not hitting it.
Hakkai: This is something I’ve seen before
Sanzo: Right. One more game
Gojyo: Hey, Baldy!!!
(Goku gets lose and runs off)
Goku: Mister! Four okonomiyakis!
Gojyo: Agh, Monkey! Don’t run off and buy stuff on your own!
(bang bang bang!)
Gojyo: Aah, Sanzo! Stop shooting!
Goku: Woah, the fried squid and corn on the cob looks good too!
Gojyo: AAAaaagh, you bastards!!!
Hakkai; Certainly, you are facing trouble after a sense, Gojyo
Goku: Mister! Ten chocolate bananas please! And a soda!
(bang bang bang!)
Sanzo: Old man. One more game
Goku: Oooooh, so good!
(bang bang bang!)
Sanzo: Old man. One more game
Goku: And with the chocolate bananas. . .
(bang bang bang!)
Sanzo: Old man. One more game
Goku: And yakisoba!
Gojyo: Nngghah, I’m never going with you bastards again!!!
(Goku keeps ordering food, Sanzo keeps shooting)
Hakkai: Ahh, Gojyo, do you want one of the yo-yos I fished?
Gojyo: (sighs) Just do what you want
Goku: Fireworks festivals are so fun!!!
(fireworks go off in the distance)
END.
*I've heard that Tamaya might have been the original producer of fireworks in Japan, but I'm still getting that confirmed. By now though, the word is just something you say sometimes when fireworks go off; there's no particular meaning to it.
ETA: Tamaya is actually a producer of a specific type of firework, so people call out "tamaya" sometimes when they see that one go boom. Or, as the younger generation gets confused, just when they feel like it X3
