fara_ujdeDrossel as in Drosselmeyer? Reminds me of Princess Tutu. Heh, Vocaloids are actually kind of like characters put into a story by songwriters, unable to make a difference. (Just in case you were wondering, yes, I do know Princess Tutu references Nutcracker with Drosselmeyer, but my memories of the ballet are far and hazy, while Princess Tutu was a recent experience.) Well anyway, it's Drossel as in the German word for "thrush".
Also, since Sword of Drossel is the official English title, you get it instead of the typical romaji one.

Thanks to lyger for checking a TL oddity. Sorry for not uploading anything lately, not even the requests, but I've been a bit busy with personal stuff (luckily it's mostly pleasant personal stuff).

I don't like this song all that much, so I didn't really bother with the swipe fade. orz Also, many thanks to lyger for the swipe-fade script. The next thing to come is probably Nisoku Hokou, with my TS and Descent's translation. Also expect a random BL robot ONA subbed. Maybe.

Unlike Minakata laboratory DVD, Mieno Hito's is luckily mastered well. I might still upload some of Hachi's, because YouTube might be more merciful when lowering quality for 480p than it is for 360p. I'll also be working with descent, also known as ukwildcat387, on other songs.

TRANSLATOR'S NOTE: Undine/Ondine is a water elemental/water nymph of Greek and German legends. They supposedly sing with a beautiful voice and seek to marry a human to gain a soul. However in some stories, like the unfortunate German knight mentioned in the song, those who are unfaithful to an undine are cursed with death. While it's a bit abstract here, you can see how this fits with the song. The Ondine/singer is singing with her/his beautiful voice (spreading the message of "happiness") and if she/he is not obeyed and her/his subjects do not remain faithful, well... The song is also referencing a tabletop game named Paranoia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paranoia_%28role-playing_game%29).

It's somehow weird how many videos disappeared from YouTube, with t12111 disappearing and then those false reports. By the way, if any of you happen to have Turrent's subbed video of Yowamushi Montblanc, please PM me. I believe the same translation isn't available anywhere else.

I can't think of anyone else who could sing a duet of teenage daughter and her father alone.
NOTE: Sekihan (赤飯, meaning red rice) is a meal made by cooking rice with azuki beans, usually served on special occassions like birthdays and weddings. Or when girls reach menarche.

Oh well. Technically speaking, this isn't a fanmade cover, as before appearing on NicoNico, it was released on Sekihan's CD, Sekihan the TREASURE. (Go and buy it. It's awesome, and the first press edition poster drawn by Kazuaki looks wonderful as well.) MKV has CD version as main audio track, stream version as secondary (yes, they are a bit different). Also, the name is soo looong... Makes it hard to include the tags. "Via Stingrays, My Proposal Bends Iron"? Seriously too long. Although it's typical of Manbō, heh.
TRANSLATOR'S NOTE: For those also not aware, the Sanzu River is a rather similar deal to the Greek River Styx, only it's from Buddhism.

They might clear some things up.
And here we go with my first tutorial. Sorry for my English, I know it's not perfect (and it's even worse when I'm nervous, like during the recording. I'll probably prepare something next time instead of making everything up on spot). I'm quite sure I was pronouncing "mux" wrong, but whatever. I also incorrectly cut the end of the video, but it's only few extra frames, so I don't really care enough.
This one is the simplest one - it covers encoding (hardsubbing) and muxing (softsubbing). I plan to make other ones, probably covering timing and timeshifting, k-timing, simple styling (as in matching the font and colors), and then probably typesetting (I honestly can't imagine how a tutorial would work for that - it might be better for you to just download my scripts and self-study, because that's how I learned to typeset).

This song is really straightforward. No, really, even beyond the first line, it never uses any symbols or hidden meanings or metaphors.
Somehow I'm only uploading covers lately.

You can hear that Tatsuki still has room for improvement, but hey, for his second appearance on NicoNico it's quite good, I'd say.
By the way, today I actually led a serious discussion with my mother on the topic of Anima's singing abilities. She also kept repeating that she really likes Hachi and demanded more songs that he had sung himself (she certainly wasn't content I only had Yūgen Shigai at hand). Go figure.

It's the original. Well, not the original, it's the ACT2 version, but the PV is the original one. Servant will be coming once I get the remaining translations. I realized I made a mistake in the first version - Rin (or Rillianne) is considered to be a princess, not a queen. It's not extremely important (although it sets up a bit of her backstory in Aku no Meshitsukai and the novels), but still.

TL notes: "every character out there" refers specifically to China's pirating of Japan's giant Gundam statue in Odaiba. The construction of China's knockoff Gundam started in December 2010 in a theme park in Chengdu, Sichuan Province.
"someone arrested here": On September 7, 2010, near the Senkaku/Diaoyu Islands (disputed between Japan and China), a Chinese trawler collided with a Japanese patrol boat, resulting in the detaining of the Chinese crew members, raising tensions between Japan and China. The eventual release of the Chinese captain by Japan was hailed in China as a diplomatic victory, and the captain was also viewed as a hero.
Tiananmen: The Tiananmen Square Protest, which took place in 1989, was a series of democratization movements by Chinese students against the authoritarian Chinese government. The protesters were heavily suppressed and arrested, sparking international criticism and sanctions against China.
"every dumpling out there": In January 2008, a dozen of Japanese fell ill after consuming dumplings produced in China. Laboratory analyses showed that the packages had been contaminated with various pesticides. Arrests have been made in China, but the final outcome of the incident remains inconclusive.
Independence movements: There have been independence movements in both Tibet and Xinjiang, two of China's autonomous regions. The Chinese government always has only one response to any call for independence: military suppression.
"sovereignity of any place": This refers to both China's dispute with Japan over the Senkaku/Diaoyu Islands and China's claim over the entire South China Sea.
