Spoilers get worse and worse as the song progresses - I'll try to warn you, but if you haven't read the ENTIRE VISUAL NOVEL, ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE VERY END OF EP8, BE WARY. Or at least cut out immediately when I tell you to, dammit. It will ruin things for you.
I wanted to have this up on the 15th, but it didn't work out. Sony Vegas kept crashing every two minutes while I was making this... I'll try to have Beatrice's song up soon.

Notes for "Checkmate":
No way!: Originally, "Rame!" Battler has a tendency to scream this as he's fall-fall-falling off a boat... I don't know exactly what it means, but it appears to be just a general negative expression. Or he wants Ramen XD
damn crazy-eyed witch: Amusing, yes, but I'm not really sure about this line. Battler talks so casually that it's incredibly hard for me to translate parts of this song...
Notes for "Longing to be the Game Master":
My aunt: Okay, I hope he's referencing how he saved Natsuhi in EP5 and not threatening Evatrice again...but I wouldn't put it past the goddamn Battler...
DAT LAST LINE. I have no idea how to translate it. Okay, I have all of it except for the word "kubi", which can either mean neck or unemployed/fired. I tried to make sense of it, but it's probably wrong.
Notes for "For Who...?":
best bastard of them all!(saikou ni saitei na): Literally, it means "the best of the worst." But I thought if I translated it that way, people might get the wrong idea seeing as "the worst" can mean both "despicable, morally wrong" and "unskilled, incompetent" XD I didn't want to moodkill it. And Black Battler is a Magnificent Bastard after all...
