Am I a fairy or...? and 紡ぐ日常(メロディー) lyrics translation

Am I a fairy or...?

[Japanese] 「ボクは妖精だ…」と　気付いてしまった日 人と違うことなんかより　胸に想うことが 「たからもの」を守る　その為についた羽根 人と違うこの役割(すがた)が　誇りに想えたんだ 生きる意味があるって　チカラが溢れる ずっとずっと一緒だよと　決めたはずだったのに お別れってさ…いつも急だね 突然パアっと広がる世界　風に羽根が追いつけない 悲しくないなんてあるものか　怖さで震えが止まらない 守っていたと想ってた　でも守られてたんだね その強さを知りたいから　感謝(サヨナラ)を言うんだ I am I-ai- 初めての景色は　個性が溢れてて 人と違ってよかったって　教えてくれたんだ 花の色、天気予報、子供の笑顔も 毎日、毎日、異なることで 地球は華やかに　彩って回り続ける 「やりたいことが出来たんだ」と　胸を張って歌うために 涙を拭いて旅にでよう　それがどしゃぶりな雨でも やがてきっと出会うだろう　愛を伝えるべき人 まだ名も知らぬ君へと　キスをあげるために I just wish you 明日(あす)のために今日を過去にして 新しいドアを開き　夢を掲げよう そして無限に広がる未来　風に羽根は喜ぶだろう 自分自身を信じゆこう　怖さもゼンブ抱きしめて 挑戦をし続ければ　神様は微笑むさ 自分が宝石になれ　ボクはボクと叫ぶ I am I-ai- [Romaji] "Boku wa yousei da…" to kidzuite shimatta hi Hito to chigau koto nanka yori mune ni omou koto ga "Takara mono" wo mamoru sono tame ni tsuita hane Hito to chigau kono sugata ga hokori ni omoetanda Ikiru imi ga arutte chikara ga afureru Zutto zutto issho da yo to kimeta hazu datta no ni Owakarette sa… itsumo kyuu dane Totsuzen paatto hirogaru sekai kaze ni hane ga oitsukenai Kanashiku nai nante aru mono ka kowasa de furue ga tomaranai Mamotteita to omotteta demo mamoraretetan da ne Sono tsuyosa wo shiritai kara sayonara wo iunda I am ai Hajimete no keshiki wa kosei ga afuretete Hito to chigatte yokattatte oshiete kuretanda Hana no iro, tenki yohou, kodomo no egao mo Mainichi, mainichi, kotonaru koto de Chikyuu wa hanayaka ni irodotte mawari tsudzukeru "Yaritai koto ga dekitanda" to mune wo hatte utau tame ni Namida wo fuite tabi ni deyou sore ga doshaburi na ame demo Yagate kitto deau darou ai wo tsutaerubeki hito Mada na mo shiranu kimi he to kisu wo ageru tame ni I just wish you Asu no tame ni kyou wo kako ni shite Atarashii doa wo hiraki yume wo kakageyou Soshite mugen ni hirogaru mirai kaze ni hane wo yorokobu darou Jibun jishin wo shinjiyukou kowasa mo zenbu dakishimete Chousen wo shitsudzukereba kamisama wa hohoemu sa Jibun ga houseki ni nare boku wa boku to sakebu I am ai [English] The day I realized that "I'm a fairy…" It's because of what I feel in my heart rather than being different from others These wings that are attached here to protect "my treasures" I felt proud of this look (role) of mine that was different from others My power overflows knowing that there's meaning of life Even though we've decided we'd always be together forever Farewells are always so sudden, aren't they… The world suddenly expands in a flash, and my wings can't keep up with the wind There's no way I'm not feeling sad, I'm so scared that I can't stop trembling in fear I thought I was the one protecting you, but I was the one who got protected instead, didn't I? I want to know that strength of yours, so I bid my farewell (thanks) to you I am I (Ai) The scenery I saw for the first time, overflows with my own individuality It told me how glad I am that I'm different from others The color of the flowers, the weather forecast, and the children's smiles They all can be different every single day The earth continues to rotate in brilliant colors So that I can proudly sing, “I was able to do what I wanted to do” Let's wipe our tears and go on a journey, even if it's in a pouring rain I'm sure that someday I'll meet them, someone who I'll convey my love for To give a kiss to you, whose name I haven't known yet I just wish you Let the past be the past for the sake of tomorrow Open the new door and pursue our dreams And then, my wings will rejoice in the wind as the future expands to infinity. Let's believe in ourselves and embrace all of our fears As long as you keep trying, the God will smile upon you. Turning myself into a jewel, I'll shout that "I am me" I am I (Ai)

紡ぐ日常(メロディー)

[Japanese] どうってことない日とか　冴えない日だってあるさ でも大丈夫　ボクと特別にしていこう 紡ぐ日常(メロディー)　さぁ一緒に歌おう 凹んじゃってる君の顔 小さい声はもはや聞き取れなくて 覗き込んだ瞳　溢れる涙 何があったか話してよ なんて言いながら尊くて 胸が締め付けられそうだ この気持ち…　これこそが… 愛なんだ！(It's LOVE！) 君とだから知ることが出来たんだ 大切な今日が色づいてく データだけじゃ分からない 非合理的な感情なんてちょっといいね 君の(LaLa…)涙(LaLa…) ボクが拭いてあげたいんだ　ずっと… 自由に生きてみよう 何だって出来るから　踏み出してみて 自分の世界を変えられるのは 自分だけだと思うんだ なんて言うだけは容易いって？ ホントだって！　口にして ほらなんだか　出来そうな気がしない？(しない？) 君とじゃなきゃ見ることもなかった 新しい夢　息づいてく 「手を伸ばせば白い雲も掴めるかな？」と 君が笑っているから　二人で笑った 忘れないで　ボクがいること 紡ぐ日常(メロディー)　重ねて行こう 寂しい時　嬉しい時も　ユニゾンしよう 君と歌うことに意味があるんだ もっと… 君とだから知ることが出来たんだ 大切な今日が色づいてく データだけじゃ分からない 非合理的な感情なんてちょっといいね ボクが(LaLa…)ボクで(LaLa…) あり続ける理由はひとつ 君と生きるため 特別なメモリー増やそう さぁ一緒に歌おう 声を聴かせてよ LaLa… LaLa… LaLaLaLaLa… LaLa… LaLa… [Romaji] Doutte koto nai hi to ka saenai hi datte aru sa Demo daijoubu boku to tokubetsu ni shite ikou Tsumugu merodii saa issho ni utaou Hekon jatteru kimi no kao Chiisai koe wa mohaya kiki torenakute Nozoki konda hitomi afureru namida Nani ga atta ka hanashite yo Nante iinagara tattokute Mune ga shimetsukerare sou da Kono kimochi… kore koso ga… Ai nanda!

Mikaze Ai's Birthday (Year 1) Voicelines Translation.

-You can look at it again on the Event Log, Mini-Event section (for the other boys messages to him) and Talk section (for a one-on-one conversation with you and him) in Idol Page.

-Also the translations might not be fully accurate since I'm not that fluent on jp/en, so if i ever made a mistake do correct me🙏

<You (Player)> Ai: Thank you. I didn't expect to feel this warmth just by hearing your birthday wish for me. Ai: I'd like you to celebrate my birthday again from now onwards. What do you think of making that promise as my gift?

<Otoya> Otoya: Happy Birthday, Ai-senpai! Not only you're good at singing, but you're so composed and cool… I also want to be like you! Ai: Thank you. I think there's quite a lot I can learn from you too, Otoya. Like how honest you are just now, for example.

<Masato> Masato: Happy Birthday, Mikaze-senpai. I hope we'll be able to work together on various occasions in the future. Ai: I look forward to it. But, you don't have to be that formal. I hope you can teach me about cooking and such casually.

<Natsuki> Natsuki: Happy Birthday, Ai-chan. I'm always indebted to you! Can I give you a hug as a thank you? Ai: I understand that it's Natsuki's way of showing affection, but… I wish you'd remember how to control your strength by now.

<Tokiya> Tokiya: Happy Birthday. I'm always learning from your keen insight, Mikaze-san. Ai: Thank you. That words kinda make me happy. Tokiya's always diligent and serious, so it's easy to have a conversation with you.

<Ren> Ren: Happy Birthday! How about we play an analog game sometimes? It's kinda fun in its own way. Ai: That might be a good idea. I think I'm interested with ones that use psychological warfare. Give me some time to do a proper research.

<Syo> Syo: Happy Birthday! I guess no matter what you say, Ai is a good senpai. You'll surely help me out if I ever need help, right! Ai: Thank you. I also think that Syo's a good kouhai, "no matter what you say". Though you can be quite a handful.

<Cecil> Cecil: Happy Birthday! Ai-senpai is able to handle difficult jobs with ease. You're amazing! Ai: Hehe, you flatter me. The way you always do your best in your job is one of Cecil's unique charms, so I hope you'll cherish that.

<Reiji> Reiji: Happy Birthday, Ai-Ai! I hope you let me do things and treat you like an older brother sometimes~☆ Ai: In that case, you need to act a little more like an adult first. But, I got the gist of what you wanted to say. Thank you.

<Ranmaru> Ranmaru: Happy Birthday, Ai. Although your unflappable nature is one of your good points, you need to value your instincts more. Ai: Thank you. Instinct, huh… You mean, I should show my emotions more often like you, Ranmaru? I think I already do that though.

<Camus> Camus: Happy Birthday. I do commend you for your knowledge and impeccable actions, Mikaze. Keep up the good work and improve even further. Ai: That's a very Camus-like compliment. Thank you. I'm always aiming for the top, even without you telling me.

<Eiichi> Eiichi: Happy Birthday. Your abundant knowledge and the dignified demeanor you exude is a beautiful trait to learn from. Ai: I'm a senpai after all. You're also a little bit weird, but I give you kudos for your ability to manage HE★VENS.

<Kira> Kira: Happy… Birthday. I think… the subtle and quiet passion in your song… is beautiful. Ai: Thank you, I'm really happy to hear that. I think we might be a lil' bit similar in that aspect, like how we convey so many of our feelings through song.

<Nagi> Nagi: Happy Birthday☆ You'd sometimes look at Nagi, don't you? It's because I'm cute, right~♪ Ai: I did, but that's because I rarely see someone like you. …Oh well, let me give you a compliment. I think I understand about that cute part of yours.

<Eiji> Eiji: Happy Birthday. I'm probably the older one between us, but I think it's amazing how you're always so calm and collected. Ai: Really? I'm just simply behaving as myself though. But well, thank you for the compliment.

<Van> Van: Happy Birthday! I want to make you laugh so hard with my own power! Take a listen to my special joke! Ai: Thank you. I don't mind listening to it, but whether I'll laugh or not is another matter. …Good luck, I guess?

<Yamato> Yamato: Your amazing dance always look so steady. Are you doing some kind of special training? Oh, by the way, Happy Birthday. Ai: Was that for the birthday wish or were you talking about the training more? …Oh well, I understand how you feel. Thank you

<Shion> Shion: Happy Birthday. Your vocals, which are as clear as the running water, are very soothing to listen to… Ai: Thank you. That's a very poetic expression. I'll make sure to keep it in mind as a reference for writing lyrics.

Jinguji Ren's Birthday (Year 1) Voicelines Translation.

-You can look at it again on the Event Log, Mini-Event section (for the other boys messages to him) and Talk section (for a one-on-one conversation with you and him) in Idol Page.

-Also the translations might not be fully accurate since I'm not that fluent on jp/en, so if i ever made a mistake do correct me🙏

<You (Player)> Ren: Thank you, Lady. I feel like I'm going crazy from all of the overwhelming love I'm getting from you. Ren: In addition to feeling giddy with happiness, a greedy thought also comes to mind. Like how I don't want to give you to anyone, for example.

<Otoya> Otoya: Happy Birthday! Ren is so mature that I tend to rely on you for help. You look cool too, I'm so jealous~ Ren: Thank you. …You give me too much praise. I'm sure there are many aspects only you can have, Ikki.

<Masato> Masato: I will offer you my sincere blessing at least on your birthday. Happy Birthday, Jinguji. I hope you have a wonderful day. Ren: That's quite unexpected. Are you plotting something? …Oh well, let me say thank you. In between our unfortunate but inseparable relationship.

<Natsuki> Natsuki: Happy Birthday. We're both an Onii-san among everyone. Let's do our best together! Ren: You're right, I'm sure I could become a good "Onii-san" with Shinomi. How about we hold a meeting between the two of us right now?

<Tokiya> Tokiya: Happy Birthday, Ren. I'm always grateful of your nonchalant attention. Ren: Thank you. I also like the easy-going relationship I have with Icchi. Let's go out together again.

<Syo> Syo: Happy Birthday! You always look so picturesque huh, Ren~ I'll be using you as a reference again. Ren: Sure, if you're fine with me. How about we go shopping? I'd like you to pick out some clothes for me too.

<Cecil> Cecil: Happy Birthday, Ren! Ren is always so kind. You're a wonderful person I look up to. Ren: You're praising me too much. But, thanks. It must be because of Cesshi's honesty that I'm like that.

<Reiji> Reiji: Happy Birthday, Ren-Ren☆ Rei-chan will play with you to celebrate~♪ How about we go surfing! Ren: I'm no match for you. You make me want to go right away if you invite me like that. Thank you, let's set up a date.

<Ranmaru> Ranmaru: Happy Birthday. You might be cheeky, but you always do everything that needs to be done. I think that's one of your good strengths. Ren: Thank you, Ran-chan. Despite what you say, your kindness haven't changed at all since the old days.

<Ai> Ai: Happy Birthday, Ren. Not only in real life, but I will also celebrate it once again in the game. Wait for it. Ren: I'm flattered. I love playing game with Aimi too. I can't wait until I log in to the game.

<Camus> Camus: Happy Birthday. I shall continue to make use of you as an outstanding chauffeur from now on. You should feel honored. Ren: Hehe, that means you enjoy going out with me, right? Sure, I'll accompany you anywhere you want.

<Eiichi> Eiichi: Happy Birthday. I think your beautiful manners is one of your strong points that I should learn more from. Ren: Thank you. Perhaps, it's because you're a leader, but you always pay close attention to things in details, huh.

<Kira> Kira: Happy Birthday… The way you look during work… and how you would sometimes show your true self. Either of them… have the power to charm people. Ren: I'm flattered to hear your earnest praise. Likewise, I think you have a good contrast in your personality as well.

<Nagi> Nagi: You're always playing a sexy role, how about you learn to be cute once in a while? Since it's your birthday, Nagi will teach you! Ren: Learning how to be cute, huh. It seems quite interesting. Thank you. Could I ask you for help right away?

<Eiji> Eiji: Happy Birthday. If you don't mind, I could tell you about my recommended spicy food restaurants. Ren: Thank you. That's a very interesting topic. Since you like cooking, I suppose that means you know a lot about it?

<Van> Van: Happy Birthday! You like card games, right? It would be fun to try it with 18 of us! Ren: That's an interesting idea! I'll have to check out what we can do with a big number of people. …Oh, I won't hand over the victory to you.

<Yamato> Yamato: Happy Birthday! You have such a strong core. Are darts good for building muscles? Ren: Thank you. Although it mainly uses one arm, it's also some sort of whole workout, so maybe it does.

<Shion> Shion: Happy Birthday. I could feel your deep love for everyone… from the way you carried yourself on stage. It was magnificent… Ren: Thank you. It makes me really happy to hear that from someone who makes his own atmosphere with his unique worldview.

Valentine Day's Present Voice Lines Translation (Live Emotion)

-You can look at it again on the Event Log: Talk section, the voice line is titled バレンタインデー プレゼント/Valentine Day's Present. (There's only one voice line no matter what size (S/M/L) of present you gave them)

-Also the translations might not be fully accurate since I'm not that fluent on jp/en, so if i ever made a mistake do correct me🙏

Otoya: Yayy! Thank you so much! Ehh, what should I do, open it right away? But I do want to put it on display. Masato: I really appreciate your thoughtfulness. …My words came out too stiff. But that's because I'm really happy about it. Natsuki: Thank you so much for preparing this for me. It feels too good for me to eat it. Tokiya: I'll make sure to give back with the same sincerity for the heart you gave me. Ren: You always make happier than anything else. I don't think a simple "thank you" is enough to express my feelings to you. Syo: Are you sure I can have this? Thanks! I'm so touched right now…! Cecil: I accepted your feelings! I'll be able to smile all day today. Thank you. Reiji: Thanks, Kouhai-chan! I shall accept this as a honmei chocolate from you♪ Ranmaru: You're well-prepared than I thought you'd be. Not bad. Let me say thank you. Ai: Thank you. This makes me more happy than I imagined. Maybe it's because I can feel your feelings inside it. Camus: Oh, for me? How thoughtful of you. I'll gladly accept it in response to your enthusiasm. Eiichi: Oh, this is amazing. To think that I'd be able to receive your dazzling love in a tangible form. I'd like to thank you from the bottom of my heart. Kira: Thank you. For thinking of… giving this to me. I'm… truly happy… by your feelings. Nagi: Yaay~! Thank you☆ All of your presents belong to Nagi♪ I'll keep them all for myself! Eiji: Wow, you're giving this to me? Thank you very much. It makes me want to cherish it forever. Van: I've been waiting for this~! Thank you so much! Let's spend time much more sweeter than the chocolate. Yamato: Oh, thanks. As I thought, it feels good to receive something from you. It got me pumped up. Shion: Is it okay for Amakusa to have this…? Thank you. Just looking at it makes my heart flutter…

still thinking about how the fairy in ai's solo song might be the metaphor for his identityー

it was from the lyrics and welp, i translated it on a whim before, but here if you don't mind

ボクは妖精だと気づいてしまった日 The day I realized I was a fairy 人と違うことなんかより胸に思うことが It's because of what I have inside my heart rather than being different from others 宝物を守るその為についた羽 These wings right here that are meant to protect my treasure 人と違うこの姿が誇りに思えたんだ I felt proud of this look of mine that was different from others 生きる意味があるって力が溢れる My power overflows knowing that there's meaning of life ずっとずっと一緒だよと決めたはずだったのに Even though we've decided that we would always be together forever お別れってさいつも急だね Farewells are always so sudden, aren't they 突然パッと広がる世界 The world suddenly expands in a flash 風に羽が追いつかない My wings can't keep up with the wind 悲しくないなんてあるものか There's no way I'm not feeling sad 怖さで震えが止まらない I'm so scared that I can't stop trembling in fear 守っていたと思ってた I though I was the one protecting you でも守られてたんだね But I'm the one who was being protected instead, didn't I その強さを知りたいから I want to know that strength of yours 感謝（サヨナラ）を言うんだ So I bid my thanks (farewell) to you I am Ai

ngl i was one of those ppl that find his song title funny and make a joke about it with my friends

i mean it's still funnyーbut after listening to the first verse lyrics... it really hits hard... especially when he said he felt proud of his look... ;;;w;;;

but still... i didn't expect for it to be a metaphor for himself... ごめんよ藍

the way it used 人 when he was comparing himself, while it's more right to interpret it as other ppl (especially if we go with his song theme), it's prolly more correct for it to meant as human cuz robo ww

i love how you can find references from his older songsーbut my fav so far is from the futari no monogram, where he said he wanted to be the one protecting rather than being protectedーbut then here he realized he was the one being protected instead and I... くそマジエモいよぉぉぉ இ௰இ

plus the way he sing the end as a "goodbye" even though the lyrics stated it as a thank you... and him saying he is himself ;;;w;;;

next month still feel so far away for the full release asdfghjkl

i wanted to translate tsumugu melody too but there are some parts that i can't really catch on so i'm just gonna wait for the actual lyrics when it finally release :"))) also the song is just too difficult props to shoutan for it but how do you sing that lol

while fairy kinda resemble WB, tsumugu melody feels more close to flake heartーespecially with the vibes and all

the way it started with you in a slump and him cheering you on is cuteーthe 日常 title fits really well

also the part before going to chorusーlike the phrase and the way shoutan sing it asdfghjkl

この気持ちこれこそが 愛なんだ (it's love) This feeling is what you call love

it's simple but just hearing him singing it like that felt ticklish www not as much as synchronism ig lol

another エモい part is the first line of the chorus and the end of it

君とだから知ることが出来たんだ I could only knew this because I'm with you 大切な今日が色づいてく How this precious day become so colorful

him singing this and then ending it with this????

君の涙ボクが拭いてあげていんだ　ずっと I will wipe away your tears forever

stop making ppl cry ai damn it!!!

also another rambling of mine but the way i can fully sense haruka's presence in both of these songs is just urghh haruchan ty for another great song i seriously love you twooo urghhhh :"))))) おバカな藍春推しだけど君達をずっと見守ってるよ！！！！

[blueesnow]

i remember when the early preview came someone joking around and said that what if their solo song is about them speaking of their own taboos hence the movie title and angsty lyrics and Iー

[blueesnow]

zero is definitely pain after pain song... it did giving off the moving on vibe near the end but the overall lyrics is just... TTwTT

QUARTET NIGHT relationship deep dive (part 1/3)

Reiji/Ranmaru & Ai/Camus

Ok I didn't really know how to title this but it's just going to be me rambling about how & why the members of QN bounce off each other so well, by talking about all 6 pairings one by one (with some personal interpretations sprinkled in!!)

Reiji & Ranmaru:

First of all, for a group that was forced together pretty suddenly, it does seem like they developed the fastest friendship within the group. Early on in AS, they feel naturally close without it being said outright. There’s proof that they hang out really often actually, I remember playing AS and during some QN meetings one of them would randomly drop that they were together the previous night for drinks or something, lmao

Obviously there’s the fact that Ranmaru loves food, especially meat, and Reiji’s family owns a bento store that makes delicious karaage (not sponsored), which Ranmaru enjoys a lot. So Reiji uses Ranmaru as a taste tester for new recipes that HE suggested to his family himself, that’s actually so cute??

On top of that, Reiji is aware of Ranmaru’s financial problems so it’s implied that he also does this to help him out in general, to make sure he’s not hungry while not making him feel indebted or anything (at least that’s how I saw it, especially in one of the debut drama tracks)

I think what makes mairasu and derella the “OG pairings” is pretty clear, Reiji and Ranmaru are just very normal compared to the other two haha… It’s easy to see why they’d appreciate each other’s companionship, especially around the beginnings of QN as a group (the uncertainty + the other two members being 1. a guy who is an asshole towards Ranmaru and 2. basically a ghost of Reiji’s past that fills him with guilt)

Now I just want to share this really sweet scene from music 2 where Reiji is hanging out at Ranmaru’s apartment, it’s short but I’d say it shows their dynamic really well?

(disclaimer, both translations in this post were done on a whim in the middle of the night, it’s mostly approximate and I’m not certain about every sentence)

So yeah, even if he’ll deny it, Ranmaru IS a caring person. He just lets his actions speak more than words, and Reiji doesn’t need words anyway since he’s really good at reading people and appreciating Ranmaru for who he is beneath the bluntness and tsundere stuff. Plus, Reiji has problems of his own that he always hides, but this scene among others proves that Ranmaru would worry about him if things got too bad.

Ai & Camus

These two are underrated af as a duo I swear. Let me explain

What's crazy to me is how similar their character arcs are in Debut!! even though they barely ever interact in that game

They both start out very lonely without knowing it, because they haven't known warmth or ✨the power of friendship✨, and with their overly rational little heads they see bonds with other people as inconveniences (see my camus rambling post)

But their character development in Debut is about them accidentally growing attached to their kouhai, and then having an existential crisis about their own free will (Camus as the queen's servant and Ai as a slave to his programming)

They also are both data obsessed and take notes on the people around them. In Ranmaru’s AS route, Camus gives you a big file on Ranmaru’s past out of nowhere, and in Ranmaru’s ASAS route, Ai gives you his data on Ranmaru lmao

They got along since the beginning of QN because of their similar "rational" mentality, and then developed a friendship unknowingly (it’s the funniest thing in the world)

For an interaction that is literally just “Hey, wanna hang out on Sunday?”, they have to go on and on for over 2 minutes about how it would be statistically beneficial for both of them if they spent more time together, in the context of their work, of course (it’s just for work!!). Behold, the most awkward conversation ever:

At this stage they won't even admit that they simply like each other’s company, but I think they can after years of being in the same group (in fact they have some very sweet lines about each other in LE)

Some other crumbs that I find cool:

Ai seems to really care about Camus’s sugar problem, he frequently pesters Camus about his health

Camus is the only one besides Syo, Natsuki and Haruka who knows that ai is a robot (for Reiji it’s ambiguous because the Fiction drama track shenanigans are weird, more on that next time)

Ai has superhuman strength and a rocket punch function (for some reason), Camus is trained in weapons and has probably carried out assassinations, THEY CAN KILL YOU AND LOOK LIKE THIS WHILE DOING IT:

There really are more and more examples of gen AI usage in Live Emotion the closer you look, and it seems to be happening more with recent releases, or at least it isnt being touched up by actual artists as much anymore.

Heres some examples from this street background showing some common signs of AI! For reference, this is the full background image (Thanks to the Wiki for the source!) And of course, who knows if Live Emotion is using AI, I certainly wouldnt accuse them of that would I??? Lets just use this completely normal background illustration to study what could be signs of AI shall we?

Might not look too bad at first glance right? But when you look closer:

Uneven, unconfident, wobbly awning with inconsistency shapes for the draped part (particularly on the left).

A shadow on the brickwall thats not coming of of any visible object! How interesting! (its not the telephone poll to the left of the image, and that is at a different depth). Fake shadows and varying light sources are a sign of AI.

Lots of inconsistent brick sizes (thats not how bricks work). Notice also how the bricks are coloured. Especially on the right most building, there is a patch that is much lighter/brighter red, but it doesn't line up with any of the actual bricks. Anything that has an extremely consistent, well known, real life pattern to it can be a clear sign of AI usage when its incorrect.

Every window has an exhaust fan (excuse my lack of architectural lingo) except the one on the top left. Also, notice the different heights and widths of the windows! Particularly the bottom left window is a lot smaller, and the bottom middle window has an odd little nubbin in the bottom left corner of the windowsill.

What unique architecture, look at how it simply melts into itself with a lovely little floating ball detail on the roof. The way that the lighter part of the exterior perfectly lines up with the vertical line of the same coloured building in the background also commonly happen when the AI gets confused and merges two shapes together. Shapes and colours blending into eachother with no clear definition or hierarchy of depth is a common sign of AI.

Lots of strange unexplainable particule effects/dots strewn about the image.

More incredible windows where the brick texture melds into the border of the window, and some of those borders are also blending into the surrounding brick. Areas with similar colours will often blend into eachother unnaturally with AI generates images.

Bonus round of spot the difference using the Skate event background pointed out by the wonderful people over at the Live Emotion Wiki! Dont you just love when the entire architecture of your city changes at night time?

Flick between the two images and see this magical city transform with the power of badly disguised Gen AI! (boooooo!! ewww!!!)

Any one of these things on their own is fine, especially coming from growing artists! But certainly not something you expect to see to this amount in a game thats making so much money from a big company right? And that's just a couple parts from two backgrounds!

But again, what do I know! Its AI generated
