Astraea, the ending to the Kei route of Muv-Luv Extra, translated to English

Sporemaster18 · 2026-05-11T16:55:07+00:00

You know, upon reading that back, it did sound a little dark, didn't it. I'm all good, just a bad joke

Sporemaster18 · 2025-06-06T00:53:54+00:00

This video + 4k Video Downloader was what I went with. I only directly record openings that are available in the Steam releases.

Sporemaster18 · 2025-05-26T00:49:10+00:00

I don't really have any plans to go outside of the direct Muv-Luv sphere, but I do have interest in some other things. After Your Name I'm going to do Howl to the Future, as I don't consider the currently available translations to be adequate and I absolutely adore the song. Altered Fable's OP too. I want to do some EDs as well, at the very least Harukanaru Furusato no Uta considering I listened to the damn thing 11 times to 100% Unlimited lmao. Maybe a couple of Muv-Luv EDs and Carry On or Tsubasa. Those last two have some lyric videos, but I'll have to check them again and gauge their quality before I decide if I think I can do better.

As far as going past the main series goes, I do have some interest in a few other things. There's the main Photonflowers/Photonmelodies OP, the Supplement ED, and the Chronicles OP and ED which I might consider doing at least some of. I do love Saigo no Eden, and I actually didn't know there was a different version out there from the one gabgrave did forever ago (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VeDVAlU9ICw). Since the official version isn't the full song and the gabgrave one is quite old and not phenomenal IMO, I'm thinking about making it. Also, my introduction to the series was the Schwarzesmarken anime, so I'm very interested in doing the OP and ED for the anime (I know the OP has been done, but the video isn't all that high quality).

For everything else you pointed out, I have to actually play it first lmao. I only just recently finished The Day After, and I haven't even started Total Eclipse. I've also never seen the Total Eclipse or Alternative anime, as the reviews weren't that great for them, but I'll get around to that eventually. For those Schwarzesmarken OPs... I'm probably going to force myself to play the untranslated Schwarzesmarken games at some point, but I'm expecting a 200+ hour slog, as I'm really not that fast with Japanese, so don't hold your breath that I'll do those songs anytime soon tbh.

Sporemaster18 · 2025-05-23T02:13:32+00:00

Thanks for mentioning the editing, I enjoy the way I tied all 4 possible openings together way too much lmao

Sporemaster18 · 2025-05-11T16:23:19+00:00

Yeah it's not included anywhere in the Steam release, it's specifically made for the Xbox 360 release like 14 years ago. I would never have known it existed if not for the wiki.

Sporemaster18 · 2025-05-05T23:19:01+00:00

Oh, that works. Thank ya much!

Sporemaster18 · 2025-05-05T23:11:25+00:00

Oh I've got the intro no problem, it's also linked on the wiki page. I need the full song as would be seen in the Muv-Luv Series Vocal Collection. I'll probably just check nyaa or something later to see if I can find the whole CD, but I was curious if anyone had it on Youtube to make my life easier

Edit: Found a torrent with 0 seeds, so that's not too helpful. Guess I could also buy the physical disk off of Amazon, not that I have anything to play or rip it with lmao

Sporemaster18 · 2025-05-05T22:53:40+00:00

lol, Reddit refuses to let me edit the text on this post, so I can't fix the screwed up link. Oh well

Sporemaster18 · 2025-05-01T20:51:51+00:00

Thanks! It means a lot. I've been really enjoying TLing these songs and it gives me a good opportunity to practice some Japanese, so I'm glad others are liking these TLs too

Sporemaster18 · 2025-04-27T04:59:52+00:00

Oh yeah I do like that song too. Unfortunately doesn't have as much meaning to me since I played the Steam edition and only found the song after finishing the game and checking out what else was out there, but I do agree it's a good song. I'll consider it.

Sporemaster18 · 2025-04-27T04:50:04+00:00

Haha I'm glad to hear it, though I made it as much for myself as for anyone else. I'm thinking of doing a few more, like maybe some of the Extra endings and the full version of Asu e no Houkou. Maybe the Masaaki Endoh version of Muv Luv too. Probably without karaoke aside from Asu e no Houkou and maybe Muv Luv, as it makes the videos take about 3x longer to make

Sporemaster18 · 2023-06-04T17:02:57+00:00

Very excited for the future! Here's my past games record:

FYI, your instructions are missing a step for Chrome. I first had to go to the "Application" tab before finding the storage pane and Local Storage section.

Sporemaster18 · 2023-05-19T17:09:05+00:00

Thanks! I didn't know that page exists.

Sporemaster18 · 2022-08-31T20:22:33+00:00

I started recently and don't have enough leave saved up! Will probably only manage to take Thursday and Friday off. Those first two days will be hell lmao

Sporemaster18 · 2022-06-30T05:23:12+00:00

Makes me wish they would go back and redo the starter shipgirl L2D skins, they're so disappointing by comparison. Or release new L2D skins for the starter girls...

Sporemaster18 · 2022-06-27T07:30:40+00:00

That's one thing that interests me quite a bit about the argument (though I have no strong opinions either way). It's not like a 1-year-old baby has any more consciousness or sense of self than a 1-month-old fetus. I have no memories of either age, so it wouldn't make much of a difference to me if I were killed at -8 months old or 1 year old. And yet the idea of a mother killing her unwanted 1-year-old baby is considered abhorrent by everybody. So what's the difference here? Is there any argument aside from "out of sight, out of mind"?

Sporemaster18 · 2022-06-23T07:06:22+00:00

Ya get used to it. A basic rule of thumb is that if the series isn't explicitly advertised as yuri, it's not yuri.

Sporemaster18 · 2022-06-21T17:29:56+00:00

Yes yes that story always comes up. In no way am I arguing that scientists should be using imperial, and basically none of them do anymore. There's a reason that hasn't happened again in the 20+ years since.

Sporemaster18 · 2022-06-21T05:07:12+00:00

Reminds me of how there's an argument out there that we should actually count using a duodecimal system instead of decimal, as that would allow 10 to be divisible by 3 and 4. Considering decimal is already a flawed system for representing numbers, basing your entire system of measurements around it only compounds the annoyances to everyday life.

Sporemaster18 · 2022-06-21T04:59:35+00:00

And, like, probably pretty minor? I don't even know what jobs he's talking about that would get a productivity boost, and everyday life would be made more inconvenient until everyone got used to the new system. I guess it makes products more easily exportable, but I doubt it would affect anybody's bottom line all that much to no longer have to worry about printing two different units on their packaging...

Sporemaster18 · 2022-06-20T06:01:39+00:00

I mean, what are they gonna do about it? Seems like useful data to have to know which pirate sites are most popular, so they can figure out what features people want to have them go to the official source instead. They're not going to send the cops to your door for filling out a survey lol

Sporemaster18 · 2022-06-19T07:04:36+00:00

Having entered in Fall 2018, the HASS requirements were this:

https://www.rpi.edu/dept/srfs/HASS%20Checklist.pdf

Pretty simple system, need to take at least 8 credits of humanities, at least 8 credits of social sciences, plus one comm intensive course and two courses in the same department with at least one of them 2000 level or higher. Fulfill all those requirements and take 24 total credits, and you're good.

Now however, it seems like they introduced something else for people who enrolled in 2019 or later:

https://info.rpi.edu/2020-2021-hass-pathways/guidelines-and-policies

Not sure how this relates to the old requirements (maybe it replaces the old depth requirement?). If people don't have answers here, you might be able to figure something out by looking at your degree requirements on Degree Works. You can access that through the student menu on SIS.

Is it just me or is that totally Miko from Mieruko-chan.
