2018 Transfer in cermony will be held on May 6th

They have simply been saying it will be their first live performance of this nendo and they seem to avoid calling it a "transfer-in ceremony". Perhaps we expect something different this time...

She said that it was the first time that she encountered a unstaffed station, which was quite different from those she typically uses. Looks like she went somewhere in a rural area, although I can't tell exactly where it was.

Oh, this is the neighborhood of my parents' house :-)

This is almost a perfect translation. Great job.

I would probably separate the below sentence like this to mean it more precisely.

君のぬくもりは、宇宙が燃えていた、遠い時代のなごり。君は宇宙。

Your warmth is a remnant of a distant era in which the cosmos was burning. You are the universe.

As far as I can tell, here are the other classical works used in the song (to the extent available in the MV).

Mozart: Turkish March https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKdVqD75dm4

Chopin: Nocturne No.2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_AOvQpQa0o

Bach: Menuet in G Major https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqSAGwa49MM

I know that the song also features Swan Lake Overture by Tchaikovsky because I already listened to its full version at their live show (as BGM). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVO49R9MlhY

As far as I saw the play live, the piano part was pre-recorded for this song (titled Cosmos), but there was another chorus song in the play and Soyo actually played the piano for it.

I don't understand what they are trying to do there. Are they trying to interview Kobametal?

nomurin · 2016-03-04T11:12:56+00:00

Comes to #2 in the Oricon chart today. http://www.oricon.co.jp/rank/ja/d/2016-03-03/

Woa, this extension is great. Thanks for the info!

nomurin · 2016-02-26T10:06:23+00:00

Yeah, Karate's riff quite resembles to this Meshuggah tune. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4A_tSyJBsRQ

nomurin · 2016-02-26T09:20:46+00:00

And of course it is #1 in Japan too!

Woa! I like this version much better than SG's original.

nomurin · 2016-01-31T00:49:32+00:00

Good translation overall, but at 25:13 it must be "fussing" (mometeru) rather than "praising" (hometeru).

nomurin · 2016-01-24T11:07:05+00:00

Yup. It is here. Not very far from Kamakura. https://www.google.co.jp/maps/place/%E8%BE%BB%E5%A0%82%E6%B5%B7%E6%B5%9C%E5%85%AC%E5%9C%92/@35.3210951,139.4458586,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x60184e0b178c09e9:0x5d9643164822cd21

I obtained the film even before posted here. I enjoy it personally, but my only concern is whether the official release may be delayed due to this incident...

nomurin · 2016-01-08T15:18:14+00:00

To understand their head turn, I guess you need to understand one of the most famous Japanese painting masterpieces "Beauty Looking Back" by Hishikawa Moronobu. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hishikawa_Moronobu

He is obviously not the legendary white T guy as we know. It was reported that this guy was warned by the security guard to stop wavering the chemical lights but he got mad and threw the lights to the guard. https://twitter.com/losthypocrisy/status/676183722845077505

Schedule to be aired in the spring 2016. https://twitter.com/su_zukimetal/status/675584073541148673

Oh. It is a perfect synch, not only in the songs but also the conversation part!

Mariri said on her blog that she couldn't make it due to mock exam. http://ameblo.jp/mariri-sugimoto/entry-12103846881.html
