#SAITO SOMA

[kyunkyunscans]

Translations for the Trois promo interview in Spoon.2Di 119 with Hatano Wataru, Saito Soma, and Sato Takuya, the voice actors for Gaku, Tenn, and Ryuu.

Spoon always has such beautiful layouts that I really wanted to replicate the whole magazine look instead of doing text only. I hope you enjoy! Consider buying a copy of the original if you're able!

(I've got my twitter as credit since that's where I'm usually linked to for i7 translation credits but that's still me. There are also two more pages with creator interviews that I'll try to do later, I just really wanted to get these out for release day.)

[ryuusea]

for my fellow i7 x yuumori friends, you understand for same seiyuu reasons 😌

＊ parody redraw of this song, I knew I’d wanna do this as soon as I learned it would be a Ryuu + Tenn song! SatoTaku and Soma sound really good, please give it a listen!

[1] - Russian "кудрявка", "curly". A nickname Laika the dog was known by.

[2] - This lyric, and the whole song, refer to Laika, a Soviet space dog who was sent into orbit alone in November 1957 and died of hyperthermia whilst floating in the atmosphere. She was dispatched as an experiment to retrieve data on the effect of space flight on the body. Her survival was guaranteed impossible, since the technology to return her to Earth hadn't yet been developed.

I cannot imagine what her last moments must have been like T_Tttt Laika's story is one of those that genuinely makes me tear up every time I read it, and I've been down the rabbit hole before, but translating this made me feel really sad again T_T poor sweet girl. She lives among the stars where she belongs.

[3] - I had no idea how to phrase this, as it could take many meanings depending on context. I'm torn mostly between "how long [were you in there]" and "how long [will it last]". but it's asking how long SOMETHING is, so I just went with that to avoid ambiguity.

[4] - I'm not informed on the context for this line???? I'm pretty sure it's like??? A memorial thing in (presumably) Laika's honour or something like that? but i'm not sure if giving chocolate has any cultural significance or specifically references Laika's case in any way.

NIGHT ROAD

0:04 Huh? What the heck is this? Oh? You’re finally here? You’re late. I’m not waiting for you though. But, look at this. Tch. Who bought *Aika strawberries? Were they promoting it? (snaps photo) Who knows? No idea. Anyway, *Tochiotome is the best. I hope it’s not true but don’t tell me every menu in this restaurant uses Aika. Just when I’m here to have some Tochiotome. Don’t call this a strawberry fair and pull this stunt on me ‘cus I’m gonna leave. I see. Then make it quick and ask them. It’s not a strawberry fair without Tochiotome. We’re in Higashi Village though, what the heck.

(*types of strawberries)

01:26 Yum. Well, obviously it is. Huh? Is yours an Aika menu? Not that I care though but I suppose I can tell the difference with just one bite.

It’s not bad but I still don’t like it. It’s close to Tochiotome but way too sweet. In the first place, the name itself is already a big no. *The way it overlaps with Tochiotome. If it’s a new variety, then they should compete with a completely new name.

(*the full name is Tochi-Aika)

2:23 Huh? You still can’t tell the differences? Are you serious? But not that I care. It’s gonna be more annoying if you realize how good Tochiotome is and we end up fighting for it. I’ll stick with Tochiotome so you just eat Aika as you like.

Hm. Sure. New song? That goes without saying. Heck, I have endless songs that I’ve made and saved. I even made songs before the fes anyway. Well, that’s the plan. But I might come up with better songs, so I can’t tell yet. Since my schedule this time is quite free. What kind of song, you asked me? Obviously any song is gonna be the best song. Since I made it. Have I ever made an iffy song so far? No, right? Hm. I assume you know that at least. Well, there’s that so look forward to it.

Yum. No matter how you look at it, Tochiotome is the winner. Huh? You just happened to find out about the fair before me. Why do I have to compliment you for that? Shut it. If I have to compliment, it’s not you but Higashi Village that did not forsake Tochiotome. Plus, I’m the one who pays for this so don’t get carried away.

4:29 Tch. (sighs) Geez, it’s not moving for a while. My house is just over there. Hey, pops. I’m getting off here. It’s obviously faster if I walk. (open door) Come along, you too, get off now. This will do. Just how long the traffic jam continue? Are they doing some kind of construction? Good thing we got off here. Never mind that, hurry up. It’s no time to take it easy.

5:30 (sighs) Huh? Whoa, what’s up? I’m not walking fast though. You’re just slow. Shut it. I don’t care about heels or whatever but you’re the one who chose to wear it, remember? Huh? Are you saying it’s better if we stay unmoved inside that taxi? No complaining at this point. Tch. Annoying. Let me walk at whatever speed I want to. Plus, we don’t have to reach here together at the same time. You have the key to my house too. Just come here at your own pace. (sighs) Fine, I’ll just carry these for you. When did you even buy it? What did you buy- Uh! Tochiotome?!

Hmm. For someone like you, you did well. Not bad! I approved this. Two packs, even! Tch, this is Aika, huh? Why..? I see. Well, whatever. Anyway, Tochiotome is mine. Hey! What are you grabbing for?! Let go! (y/n struggles)

(sighs) This is so annoying. I’m walking with you, heading to the same place. Why the complaint, then? What are you unhappy about? We’ve walked this street for ten thousand times or so. What good comes from walking together slowly?

7:40 I wonder. I’ve forgotten what it’s like. Even if there isn’t much, how different could it be if I walk with you? What the heck? The scenery is no different than usual. No matter where I look, all I see are buildings and apartments. Maybe you can see Tokyo Tower if you squint hard enough. Talk? About what?

Hmm. Stars, huh? Pfft, haha! It’s cloudy though! Not a single star spotted! Don’t just come up with stuff! You can’t even give a good example, just how silly are you! I can’t understand what you’re saying. Anyway, let’s go. At this rate, we’ll never make it home. Huh? Whatever makes you happy.

9:03 (open door) Hey, make sure to keep Tochiotome in the fridge. I see. Good then. We still have barley juice, right? Alright, I’ll get in the shower and I’ll have that once I’m done… On second thought, you’re coming with me. What kind of face is that?

You’ll shower later anyway, won’t you? Won’t it be faster if we do it together? Whatever, just come. Gotta be quick and drink barley juice..! (drags y/n) Huh? You pulled me by my clothes as you liked earlier, but you got mad when I did it to you? What even. Scratch that, I’ll take ‘em off here. (undresses y/n) What’s up with your outfit? You know you’re coming to my house, so don’t wear something so hard to take off..! Shut it. Then, are you planning to wear that the whole time here? You’re staying over, aren’t you?

Anyhow, I’ll take them off. It’s just a matter of time. (y/n struggles) Hmph! Stop resisting. Or as you yourself said, “It’s our precious time together.” (kisses) Pfft haha! What a funny face! But I don’t hate that look. How do I put it? You make me feel like messing with you.

Oh? Make me pancakes tomorrow morning. Don’t blame me. I just thought about it now. The ones outside are smaller than yours. Those can’t fill me up. Besides, I have Tochiotome too. Isn’t that just great! Dunno. If there’s no ingredients, then just go and buy ‘em? But that can wait. I said I want it in the morning. That said, just shut up and let me mess with you now. (kisses)

Tasogare Out Focus ep10:

I knew we were getting the H-scene in today's ep and was waiting for it. But I also assumed that it'll be very artistically made (like they did for the previous two couples) and we won't see anything explicit from the manga. And I was right. SADLY! Because I was hoping even for the tiniest glimpse of those scenes!

For example (kinda NSFW):

We got this (bless you Egu) -

But didn't get what comes right after (ear licking) -

And we got this -

But didn't get what comes before -

Or after -

Oh well, at least we got that in the BLCD ^_____~ (remember that Egu had the same hair color as Rei at the day of the recording? ;D)

Happy Birthday, Soma Saito! The way he gives 110% into being Tenn, both in the booth and on-stage, is exactly why our favorite center is the admirable way he is. <3
