"Any card—so long as it exists—has a power that is needed."

Been a while since I posted one of these! 

So, after I finished my 5D’s “Dub-Uncut” project a bit ago, I wanted to go ahead and work on a full version of the singable lyrics I whipped up for CROSS GAME; I was proud of how the TV-size translation came out and wanted to tackle the full song, since I’d never done so.  There’s also no English (or even Spanish!) cover of this song apparently, so hopefully this helps to inspire folks to try it; it’s a really good song, and I miiiight’ve started thinking of Yusei and Aki a bit as I did the second verse with the “you lock me out… let me in?” line as CROSS GAME starts being used post-Fortune Cup and all, but I think the “shared goals” part and hearing stories can also work with the Signers coming together from their different backgrounds for their united purpose.  

For the line about an allegro, because an allegro describes something happening in almost an instant, the idea was that the scene being so captivatingly imagined about shared goals as stars lighting up the sky would be more vivid because it’d feel so much longer when actually in the moment of it happening.  It was tough trying to word it well enough to convey that, but hopefully I did, lol.

Enjoy, and yeah, feel free to use for fandubs or as a base for them or what have you! I’ll revise my Last Train - A New Morning translations soonish too and post those up, along with the With the Wind and Believe in Magic lyrics I meant to post for VRAINS *checks notes* two+ years ago… whoops

Oh, go forward, why didn’t you get a PV to help with some context?? D:

So, my first VRAINS translation post! I did a TV-size singable translation for this song a month or two after… 47? 48? …whatever episode they switched the OP to go forward was aired, but held off on posting it–mainly because I’d been so busy with other stuff, but also since it was getting close to the single’s release, I wanted to wait for the full lyrics.  And for someone to post the instrumental, except no one ever did, so I went and bought it myself after having Kinokuniya ship it over.  I revised my initial lyrics and then tried to adapt the rest of it, and… yeah, some parts could’ve used a PV to give me a visual idea of how to translate it, lol.

I’m pretty happy with how this turned out though, but if any super-skilled adapters are out there, feel free to use these as a base, since I know there aren’t many translations out there.  If these are good enough for some fandubbers to sing, even better! (I’ve also posted the full single–[most] scans and all–onto NeoArkCradle!).

(I’ve also adapted full With the Wind lyrics inspired by Mark de Groot’s lyrics, as well as Believe in Magic, which I’ll get around to posting sometime soon.)

And here’s my translation for Vision; you can definitely get Yuya vibes out of this song.  I updated my TV-size lyrics a bit for singability as I added the rest of the song, and I also transcribed the Japanese lyrics.  There’s the one lyric about “overlapping places” that I decided to go with “overlay” for for an Xyz arc nod.  

Enjoy, and feel free to use for fandubs or what have you!

Finally finished this up! I’m liking how it came out during the second half–basically getting through a storm of despair and wanting to be free of it when a light of hope shines through the clouds–and overall, it’s a good motivational tune, so I tried to convey that in the lyrics.  I also updated some of the early lyrics from my TV-size translation to match the rhyme scheme I worked with for the later half or to be a bit smoother to sing.  Singing the dual-voice bridges is suffering though. D:

Enjoy, and feel free to use for fandubs/whatever! I may try to dub these myself sometime soon; this and Vision were really fun to translate, lol.

Interesting case here, since the full version’s PV is already out.  I translated this with the TV version in mind, but the third line on comes later in the full song (and the “uso ja nai” line starts with “baka ja nai” instead).  I’ll transcribe the full song and work on a full translation later in the week, but meanwhile, here’s this! Really digging this one too, and I’m eager to see what the ARC-V animation is for it. hurry and come out already dsod Enjoy!

Whipped this up really quick; it’s actually grown on me the more I sang along to the song, haha.  I love the refrain before the chorus, and I liked the chorus itself, despite some people not liking it for some reason.  I mean, considering the song’s name and all… :P (Also liked the nod to the Circus Action Field Yuya dueled Reiji on.)

Subject to change once the full version’s out, but that said, enjoy!

In honor of Trump Card serving us for only 23 episodes as of today, I thought I’d finally get around to posting my translation for this one.  It’s really grown on me, and the lyrics don’t get more motivational than this! 

Also included the romaji lyrics, since I never saw anyone post them; have fun!

Finally think I’ve satisfied myself with how this turned out, haha.  This is a great song, and the second time we’ve had the Seiyuus/VAs in any YGO show perform a song (the first being KENN (Judai) performing “Wake Up Your Heart” in GX).  Kensho Ono (Yuya) and Hosoya Yoshimasa (Reiji) deliver pretty well here–as good as Speaking is, this is still [just barely] my favorite ARC-V theme, lol.

UGHHH I LOVE THIS SONG

And this was fun to work on too; I love how relatable the song is (I’m the one who has to open up here, haha), and hopefully that comes through pretty well with these lyrics.  I redid the lyrics used for the TV-Size version a bit, to update the rhyme scheme/word choices a bit lol.  Use ‘em for whatever! :)

Itching to work on full!Trump Card, haha.

Friendly reminder that I’ve done some singable translations for a bunch of ARC-V songs that can be used for whatever :) You can also check the “Song Translations!” link in the header on my blog’s page to see these, as well as other ones I’ve posted; I’ve done ones for pre-ARC-V songs as well as other random stuff that I’ll get around to posting/updating when able!

And here’s Speaking, a fun one to tackle–so damn catchy! Note that these translations are likely to change once the full version’s out; I’ll likely want to fix up the rhyme scheme a bit.  But otherwise, enjoy!

(EDIT: And they did; updated the lyrics accordingly. Read my full lyrics here.)

Really ENJOYing this new tune, as much as I’ll miss Unleash and all, but also fun to translate; can’t wait for the full version.  Meanwhile, feel free to use these lyrics!

(EDIT: Full version lyrics are up! Also with romaji lyrics! Here.)

Whoooooo, BOY, this was a lot of fun.  And by “fun,” I mean “HOW THE HELL DO I SQUEEZE THESE SYLLABLES IN AND STILL MAKE IT FLOW?!” I still don’t think I entirely succeeded there in the chorus/other small spots (especially in the “No! Akiramenai!” line; as a guide, I smashed “they[]would” together so you get an idea of how it should be; like “thiiiiings won’t always end the way we thought theywould will they–no! …”), but after rehearsing it for like, an hour, I think it should work?? Hopefully lol, especially if you practice it with the instrumental a bit.  Other than that, yep, another singable translation for you guys; do with it what you’d like! :)

So, this one came out well, though I did have to take a few liberties to make it work in English, lol.  Notably the melody lines, and the “dream of a certain miracle” line, but overall I do like it.  Had to give it a shot since it was such an earworm.  Feel free to use with fandubs/etc!
