Asuka Affection solo - 1
Asuka thinks and behaves very... how do I put it... shonen protagonist-ish. Even Protag-kun is a bit put off by it in this story. I loved translating this one.
When she talks about training for a 'special move' for basketball, I've mostly kept the term 'special move' as 'Hissatsu technique', from the original word hissatsu-waza. There's a popular sports anime out there that uses that wording, and I thought it gives her speech a good dose of that "sports idiot" energy.
(Also, her voice actor voices one of the main characters in said anime. So it was just too good of an opportunity to pass up!)
Featured characters: Asuka, Protag-kun
Location: Behind the Gym
Tumblr media
Asuka: Hyaah! Momocchi Takeoff ☆
Hop! Step! Juuump!
...Wh, whoah!? Why you'd move out of the way? That's troublesome, you know!
No, yeah... I get what you're saying, okay! If some girl you don't know suddenly jumps at you, it's normal to avoid her, I get that!
But I wanted you to take the hit like a man~? Like, with a "bam"!
Nn? Ah, I forgot to tell you! I'm Asuka Momochi, from Class 1-A! I'm in the Basketball Club. It's nice to meet you~
You're that "senior transfer student", right? There's a rumour going around that says you'll hear out any request! If you're free, there's something I'd like you to help me out with~ ♪
You'll do it? Yaay, all the senpai in my academy are so reliable...... ♪
Alright ♪ With that settled, I'll ask for the favour right away! You know the old basketball goal that's over there?
The goal from the gym is usually folded back, to make sure it doesn't get in the way... Meaning that, in lunch breaks like these, the only thing that can be used is the goal over there.
That's why I practiced with the basketball I'm always carrying around. I'm wearing the school uniform, though, so I can't move around too brusquely, see~? I really love basketball ♪
I can only train the basics on my own, which is a problem, but I'm saved now that we happened to run into each other~
If it's alright with you, I'd like you to assist me while I learn a Hissatsu technique ♪
Eh, because, see... It's obvious I'd want a special move as a Basketball Club member!
Using Senpai as a stepping stone, jump and then throw a dunk shot! I thought I could go about learning to do that, and that's why I jumped at you earlier ♪
Once I get the hang of it, maybe I'd be able to do a second jump mid-air! And then, from high above where nobody can reach it, shoot the dunk — that's my Hissatsu technique...... ☆
Ah, what's up with that face? Stop it, stop giving me that "Aah, so you're an idiot..." look! Uaah, don't look at me the same way Mother does~!?
A-Anyways! I'll give it another go, so I'm counting on you~ ♪
Hop! Step! Juuu... Jump?
Fwah? Like I was saying, why you'd move out of the way~? Senpai, you meanie!
Aah, while I was all in a fluster, the school bell rang... If we don't hurry up to class, we'll run late, won't we~?
Geez, I guess it can't be helped... I'll put the Hissatsu technique on hold until I get a new chance to learn it.
'Till next time comes, please make sure to practice with me for it, okay, senior transfer student? Hmph, hmph!

really like world building and enstars as content as well but it bugs me so much how they treated gravure models theme and ainu people theme so much.
i feel like they should've not do that in the way they did.
like i'm in love with how main story went. and i am in such a deep love with tatsumi's character. double face is not ironically so interesting i'd watch an anime about those too solely.
but those two topics??... i feel like they couldn't do much because it'd make story more adult like but still.
can't process those two.
yeah of course when i talk about the worldbuilding it excludes the lack of tact in some of the representation . im talking about the central part of the worldbuilding that affects more than just one or two characters individually. the shinkai cult and other offscreen lore, like most of the characters growing up together, aira and kohaku and tatsumi and himeru already having history with each other prior to their introduction, how so many of the characters have families and lives beyond whats shown on screen... it feels like you really are experiencing all this through anzus perspective as a classmate and coworker. and the fact that anzu has lore at all and wasnt just isekai'd into it as well as the overall connections to engirls . theres little room for immersion breaking holes in the characters , which takes a lot of effort and thoughtfulness to pull off
as for making the story too adult, theres implied murder , rinnes sense of humor , jins alcoholism, suicide , child neglect , cult manipulation, and double face beating up a man on stage among other things. i dont think theyre too worried about that . expanding on double face is definitely not out of the question , in fact i think its quite likely, and elaborating on tatsumis backstory is almost definite .

idk how to feel about girl enstars ocs when you have engirls already
??? like girl enstars ocs in general or my group??? gonna assume this is bc they're specifically a group, and I wouldn't have been asked this if I made a girl producer, self insert, side character, etc bc I can't imagine why you'd ask that when they frame anzu as a self insert and women exist in enstars too. tldr at the end.
I know like 0 ensemble girls lore (the only think I know abt them is one of them is leo's sister I think? so same universe?) I guess you could call them ensemble girls ocs if you really want to since they're the same universe?? I don't think I should call them ocs for a fandom I know nothing about, though. maybe this is on me, but I'm making ocs for fun and for fandoms I like. I happen to like enstars and I made a group for them that's all girls, therefore enstars oc. all the oc lore at the bottom of their "what I share abt my ocs iceberg" are !! era things (agency competition, gatekeeper, etc) idk if that fits engirls' plot at all.
I made my ensemble stars ocs girls mostly bc I draw girls more often and it felt weird having almost all guy idols and not even a mention of female idol groups in the agencies, despite the game intro stating girls are also becoming idols and the agencies have not only idols but songwriters and other performers under them; it'd be weird if it was specifically always guys, so I wanted to add my own group. I get happy elements had to make enstars' cast 99% guys because they are targeting a demographic, but I am not affected by that so I can make whatever characters I want. one of my girls was meant to be a self insert before I worked on her story and she eventually became a separate character.
"why not just make a love live group if you want a girl idol group" I have! only my friends have seen them tho and also there's 9 of them and enstars tends to have smaller groups and I don't have the heart to break them up. they're also school idols who aren't overly serious about becoming an actual idols, they're just doing love live for fun (literally solely a club).
just to cover my bases, I hope you're not saying enstars ocs have to be guys and girl ocs have to be engirls ocs. it seems like a weird argument to make. would I have gotten this ask if it was only half girls like vivid bad squad? are girls not allowed in enstars? what about if they were all non-binary? do my ocs' gender have any effect on what fandom they're allowed to be for?
if you still don't like them, that's fine! I don't know if I was meant to change your mind about them, but they're not canon and you can ignore them or just think of them as independent idol ocs (frankly they might as well since they're under a different agency too). I do have a guy group in the making as well although they're slightly more band adjacent so idk if they're considered "typical enstars idol unit" either (under the same "different agency". maybe I should just detach them from enstars, but I already gave them rhythlink drama and I don't want to recreate enstars plot)
tldr: I like enstars so I made some stuff up, including a new agency and new idols, the ones I've finished and shared being an all-female idol group. they have no relationship to ensemble girls so I don't label them as engirls ocs. you are free to ignore them if they bother you
still tldr: they're my ocs and I made them for me. idk if I can change your opinion, but if you still don't like them you can ignore them

HELLO!! I wanted to ask, where do u read ur engirls translations??? I've really wanted to get into it but I don't really know where to start
HELLO HELLO HELLO, SO HAPPY TO HELP!!
a great starting point is the ensemble girls english wiki which has the main story linked here and the event stories linked here!! it also has some sub stories and paired affection stories which basically focus in on a certain character here. if it's difficult to reach the chapters, try and change the wiki to being wiki for computer or wiki for phone, depending on what works.
after going through the wiki, the next stop would be this dreamwidth that contains another part of the main story as well as other event stories and paired affection and sub stories!
okay now we're reaching further onto twitter... you have this livetweet of the maid stories which is the last full thing i can find of a story.
now onto more obscure sources. this account has a lot of good tidbits on engirls and ofc the engirls wiki twitter account which reposts translations as well as this one having random translation snippets. last account is now inactive :(
other methods r having friends who can read japanese and hand feed u translations... some stuff i know by being friends with people + talking to other engirls fans. i should have good screenshots for ruri and hotori's relationship as well as sora's final chapter but those are from friends of friends so i think i can only really talk about them!! and thats your engirls info, geared to go :)

‘ROMANCE’ Headcanons Dashgame
TAGGED BY: Stole it from the dash
TAGGING:  @feebledetective @toneofdarkness @firedragonmuses @angry-nobleman @cxrnxticn @ahogedetective  @theirsalvation and everyone else who wants to!
Tumblr media
Name: Anzu Kobayashi
Nickname(s): Angie, Little Kitten ( Natsume exclusive ), Young Lady, Little Miss, Little Girl, Nee-chan, Onee-san, angeo, producer chan, transfer student, and a billion others! Gender: Cis female (she/her) Romantic orientation: Bisexual and Biromantic, with a lean towards women!
Preferred pet names: She doesn’t actually like pet names, she finds them embarassing but as long as it wasn’t something like “darling” she’d be able to stomach just about anything, as seen by her letting Natsume call her little kitten of all things when they’re not even dating, though she’d probably be a little more willing to go “absolutely not.” if she was dating someone and they gave her a bad pet name.   Relationship status: *finger guns at bio* taken, but verse dependent consider servant au Anzu would be dead and single-
Favorite canon ship(s): There’s none unless we count the Anzu/Suzu subtext which is GOOD SHIT. Favorite non-canon ship(s): Outside of Kazuki/Anzu...Suzu/Anzu, half of Engirls/Anzu, and for shitposts Jason Voorheese/Anzu. Opinion on true love: She’s quite pessimistic and doesn’t believe in it, even if she’s dating- she’d never claim that true love is a thing, it’s more like something in fairy tales and kids stories rather than the reality of life, and the idea of that or something like soulmates kinda makes her cringe - especially when it’s in a movie or something, but she’s got nothing against love in general. Opinion on love at first sight: “Love at first sight” seems incredibly shallow to her and completely unrealistic, as in her opinion, you can’t love someone if you don’t know anything about them- and she finds people who become incredibly infatuated by appearence alone tend to only care for looks rather than the person themselves. How romantic are they: Anzu is not romantic at all are you kidding me, this girl thinks godzilla is a date movie- Ideal physical traits: She doesn’t really care about how someone looks, especially since she’s spent to much time with “perfect” looking people that she barely notices if someone’s attractive or not in her opinion, as looks don’t contribute to attraction for her. Though, she does like scars, if only because she feels more relaxed showing her own if they’ve also got some. Ideal personality traits: Someone who cares for their friends genuinely as well as animals. She also likes people who are completely and utterly honest since she can’t be honest herself - bonus points if they can sniff out her lies. Unattractive physical traits: None! Unattractive personality traits: It’s hard to say! Anzu gets along with people by defult, she’s friends with people who commited crimes and can overlook a lot of things, though I suppose jealousy wouldn’t be too good, since she’s constantly around idols and models for work, she wouldn’t want to hurt someone like that- and she’d also have a hard time with someone who was manipulative by nature ( although she’d proabably still get in a relationship with them and considering how low her self confidence was, she’d likely not leave even if they were like cheating on her ) or reminded her of the things that happened at kimisaki ( sorry reika ) Ideal date: Anzu isn’t the type to care about dates, she’d likely be fine with anything, from staying home together watching horror movies or going out, but she would be kinda creeped out by incredibly romantic things or something expensive since she’s kinda used to being treated casually. Do they have a type: I don’t think so, honestly- despite joking that she’d like anyone who’d murder her/bad boys- she would be fine with anyone and as enstars shows, she can get along well with people of very different personality types. I’ll just say her type is Suzu... Average relationship length: If her relationship with Suzu counts which is canon on this blog, about a year for each relationship she’s been in. Preferred non-sexual intimacy: Play with her hair, hold her hand or just like pat her head, that’s the real shit. Commitment level: Dude. Anzu’s so loyal that she’d die for someone she just met, she went out of her way to start a rebellion with Trickstar after shit went south and her life was ruined by one the year before: if you think she wouldn’t be entirely committed to her relationship then you’d be fuckin wrong. Though, the problem with that is that she’s a bit too loyal and would tolerate a lot of mistreatment during a relationship- anyways! the only thing anzu would be cheating on her partner with is her work but if they’re dating her, they know she’s married to the job anyway. Opinion on public affection: She doesn’t really like it, but she won’t complain if it’s hugs and such but as soon as the lips start nearing her expect to be whacked with a paper fan- she has her limits for PDA and she’s not budging on them. Save smooches and that kinda thing for home. Past relationship(s): Verse dependent. I mostly make her date Suzu in the past for my own sake, but she’s also kissed/been on dates with a few girls from Kimisaki but there was nothing too serious there. In one verse she dated Hideki, who’s in a gang but that’s just in the verse where she’s IN his gang.

Botan Affection solo - 1
Botan is a very fun character, since she's kind, but sort of absent-minded and harsh at the same time. Her trademark sweet tooth also comes to play in this.
She starts off many of her sentences with a sound of agreement (うん). So you'll see plenty of 'Mm' or 'Mhm' whenever she speaks. It's pretty cute!
Featured characters: Botan, Protag-kun. Reika also gets mentioned.
Location: Classroom
Tumblr media
Botan: Ummm...... Ahh, you, the boy over there. Do you have a moment?
Could you enter this classroom? Maybe you were cleaning or something, I'm sorry to inconvenience you. Alright then, excuse me...... ♪
Mm. You must be "Transfer Student-kun", since you're a boy. I've heard the rumours — you help out many of the girls, right?
I also do something like that. Well, not that that matters.
I'm Botan Komatsu, from Class 3-A. I play in the Basketball Club, somewhat. Sorry for the suddenness, but could I ask you for a favour?
Don't worry, it's not anything difficult to do. I usually take care of most things on my own, anyway.
Umm. I'd like you to sample this cake a little bit.
Mm. Try eating it. Here, say aah...... ♪
Mm. There, I gave you some cake now. Could I ask for your honest opinion on it?
Mm, that's right. It really...... doesn't taste good, right?
Mm. Don't worry, I won't get angry. It's not like I'm the one that made it.
Sorry for making you basically act like a poison tester.
Mm. I thought I might be getting picky with the taste after eating too many cakes, but...... This really just tastes bad, doesn't it?
It feels like it's got the salt mixed up with the sugar, right. And it's burnt, too, but it has pretty decorations, which makes it deceitful. Overall, it causes a choking sensation?
Mm. Thank you, that was helpful.
Shall I explain the circumstances now, at least?
Um, you see. I have this one classmate named Enjouji-san.
Lately, she's been giving out handmade cakes pretty often. Enjouji-san does other things to perfection...... so, since I thought the cakes tasted bad, I wondered if there might have been something going on with my tongue.
That's why I gave you some cake to eat. What a relief, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with my tongue ♪
Mm. The rest of my classmates, they were only singing praises for Enjouji-san. I couldn't even dare to say "This tastes bad" in that kind of atmosphere.
However, Enjouji-san won't improve like that, hm. It won't be good for her, hm. Mm, I understand. I'll be honest and tell her it tastes bad, and give her some advice, as well.
But how should I go about telling her, I wonder...... I don't want to bring down Enjouji-san's mood too much.
Mhm, mhm... Got it, I'll try saying it like that.
You've helped me plenty, Transfer Student-kun.
As a thanks, I'll give you this cake. Enjouji-san gave me lots of them, but frankly, I don't want to eat any more of this.
You don't need it? Mm, that figures, huh......?
Then, from now on...... If there's something troubling you, will you talk it out with me?
I'll act as your support, that's why. It's my thanks for what you've done for me, okay.
Mm. First up, I'll help you with the classroom cleaning I broke you off from...... ♪

Asuka & Botan affection story - Senior and Junior
Been getting into engirls lately and these two caught my eye, so I wanted to translate one of their stories. They're just so cute.
I'm not sure if they show up in the currently translated main story all that much, but they're the basketball club pair (Botan the senior, Asuka the junior). Asuka affectionately calls her "Komacchi-senpai".
This story is a bit of an origin story on how Botan got to training Asuka, though, so it's fine to read even without any previous knowledge!
Featured characters: Asuka, Botan
Location: Gym
Tumblr media
Asuka: Huff. Today's practice was pretty hard, too. When Komacchi-senpai is around, the rest of the Basketball Club members sure get serious, don't they?
Botan: ............
Asuka: It looks like our crucial player, Komacchi-senpai, is spacing out while glancing at the sky.
Really, even Komacchi-senpai might have gotten tired from concentrating too much during practice ♪
Man, basketball is fun, but it becomes all the more fun when playing with Komacchi-senpai~ ♪
Ah. It's not time to be staring at Komacchi-senpai. At this rate, break time will be over before I get to actually rest!
I'll get some water, and then wipe my sweat away with the to... wel?
......Oh?
Sniff, sniff...... This towel has a sweet, nice smell. Did Mother change detergents~?
Sniff-sniff, sniff-sniff...... ♪
Botan: Momochi-san.
Asuka: Hyah!? W-What's up all of sudden......? You really startled me, speaking up out of the blue like that!
But to have Komacchi-senpai be the one approaching me for a chat makes me very happy ♪ Feels like I'm in seventh heaven ♪
Botan: No, that's not it... It's just, the towel you have is mine?
Asuka: Ahh, no wonder I thought it smelled so nice~ ♪ Komacchi-senpai's sweat has a nice scent to it~ ♪
Botan: Uwah. That's a pervert right there...
But that's not the point. I don't think you're getting anything good out of smelling my sweat, anyway. And I can't say it's very hygienic to be using someone else's towel.
Here, this one is your towel, right. Use it. The design and colours look similar, but don't get them mixed up, okay?
Asuka: Ahh. So that one was mine. I completely forgot that I use a similar towel out of respect for you, Komacchi-senpai ♪
Rub, rub...... ♪
Botan: That's one problem solved, I guess...... You can't let your guard down, Momochi-san, you know?
Well then. I'll get water as well, and then I have to eat my sweets. Exercise uses up energy, so I have to replenish it now while I can.
Fufu. A chocolate bar, bean-filled daifuku mochi, and my beloved cream puffs ♪ Nom, nom...... ♪
Asuka: Ooh, Komacchi-senpai is eating lots of sweets. They're a fuel supply, hm? ♪
The truth is, following Komacchi-senpai's example, I also brought over sweets to eat over the break!
I've got chocolate, marshmallows and baby castellas [1] ♪
Munch munch, nom nom...... ♪
Botan: Mm. I don't understand why you imitate me, Momochi-san. Sweets are the taste of life itself, so if you want to eat them, isn't it fine to just do it?
Asuka: Of course ♪ I'll eat as many as Komacchi-senpai does ♪
Why do I imitate you, though... you ask. I act like you because I want to become an awesome person like you!
Ehehe, I might still lack any real ability, but I want to improve and become someone that all the juniors can admire ♪
Botan: I don't think eating sweets with me will make you become anything like me, really...
But it might be good to coach you every now and then.
Asuka: Eh. Did you just say that you'll coach me...? Did I hear that right — I did, right?
I- I want you to say it again! One more time, one more time!
Botan: Why are you chanting for it......? Uumm. Let's practice together, shall we, Momochi-san?
Asuka: Kyahoo ☆ Komacchi-senpai sure is filled with kindness, coaching someone inexperienced like me ♪
Botan: I don't really mind coaching, but saying that I'm "filled with kindness" sounds like an indirect way of calling me "fat", so I don't like it [2]. But, ah, there's no way you had that sort of idea in mind, is there.
Alright, I'll dribble the ball, so try to steal it from me.
You see, Momochi-san, your way of thinking is rather straightforward.
If you're dealing with low rank opponents, you can get by with your physical skills alone. But if you don't practice how to steal the ball using your head, those skills will get stuck on a plateau.
Asuka: Using my head to steal the ball. Hmmm......
Alright, I'll give it a try! I'll master Komacchi-senpai's training to perfection, and become someone that can pull the Basketball Club forward!
Botan: Mhm. Do your best.
Asuka: Okay then, I'll get the ball back right away... Huh, wha—!?
Botan: Mm. You still have a long way to go if you fall for a feint. Reacting to what you see isn't enough — you have to predict my next movement, or you won't be able to take the ball.
Momochi-san, you want to be like me, yes? In that case, you have to take a good look at my inner self, and not just at my actions.
If you only imitate what you see on the surface, you won't become the real thing.
Asuka: Uu...... You're totally right, Komacchi-senpai!
I need to read and understand as far as Komacchi-senpai's thought process goes, and not just copy what she does like monkey see, monkey do!
Unngh......! There! Take tha~t!
Botan: Mhm. Looking good.
But it seems you're still hesitating. That bit of hesitation leads to a momentary delay, so try to be more precise in your movements.
Asuka: Got it! Mm, mmm......
...Huh!?
Botan: H-Hm? What's wrong, Momochi-san?
Asuka: W-While staring at both the ball and Komacchi-senpai, I've become unable to tell apart the ball from her boobs!?
Botan: Huuh...?
Have you gone off your head from using it too much?
Take a good look. The ball is brown, a different colour from the uniform's. Why is she seeing them as if they're the same?
Asuka: I- I don't know......! But there's one thing I can say for sure! Something about Komacchi-senpai's boobs is captivating me!
Botan: ......Are you going to transfer over to the Occult Research Club from now on?
Asuka: Aah! You're so harsh, Komacchi-senpai! But I love that kind of bluntness, too~ ♪
Botan: Hm~m. I can't seem to follow what she's saying...?
However, she's a kouhai that admires me at great length. Maybe I'll warmly watch over her eccentric behaviour... Since my gluttony may look weird from an onlooker's perspective, too.
Asuka: There's an opening! Momocchi ☆ Di~ve!
Botan: Ah. Shoot. I left my guard down on accident.
The ball has been stolen... or not. Momochi-san, why are you aiming for my chest instead of the ball? Are you taking this seriously at all?
Asuka: Ngah!? I thought I got the ball, but it was actually Komacchi-senpai's boobs!?
Ehehe, but this is a happy accident~ What softness they have! Squeezy, squeezy ♪
Botan: ......Umm. I think I'm meant to get angry here. But I'm so stunned, I can't muster up the energy for it.
Asuka: Eh, did you say something, Komacchi-senpai? I can't hear you with your boobs blocking the way~ ♪
Botan: ......Sigh.
Castella is a type of cake. Its regular version is similar to square-shaped sponge cakes. "Baby castellas" refers to bite-sized ones. For anyone like me who didn't know the snack, here's a picture.
The expression Asuka used is 懐が広い, used to call someone open-minded or generous. However, taken literally, it can mean "your bosom is wide", which is why Botan makes the fat comment. I worded it as 'filled with kindness' to carry over the word play.
