🔸West🔹This is honestly a blog just for idol stuff. I'm too obsessed with them I swear.You can always ask for some translations so don't hesitate and request whatever you want!
WOW it’s been a long time since I’ve posted something in here... I said I would try and anounce hiatus or any other problems in advance but in the end I didn’t...! SO SORRY
Actually I’ve been in Japan since 11th July! AND OF COURSE I’VE BOUGHT A LOT OF MERCH ABOUT IDOLS
While I was reading some of the mangas I’ve bought, I’ve thought about scanning everything, translating them and post them in here so all of you can enjoy it too!
I actually bought the A3! comic anthology! I don’t know it any of you are interested, but if you are I think I could post the translations in here?
Would you be interested in it?? If so, tell me and I’ll do it as fast as I can!
SO exams are in a few weeks and I’ve been studying for it and that’s why I couldn’t translate as many things as I would have wanted...
I’m still gonna try and translate some things BUT it’s gonna take a few more days than usual! Once I’m done with all that I swear I’m gonna translate faster and post as much as the day lets me!
OSIRIS Main Story ・Prologue・ [ 1語 プロローグ 「不協和のLastLive」 ]
*Spoilers! If you know japanese and wanna read the story by yourself DON’T READ THIS This is gonna be a translation for the story of the game!
Johnny: The enthusiasm is coming all the way here! The venue is full! The voltage it's at its peak! Here’s your producer… me! A new legend starts here! This summer it's the musical festival "Beginning; R" opening!
Audience: Oooh!
Kyou: …
Ray: The crowd seems so excited! I can’t believe that we’ll be performing in front of this crowd. I’m getting excited! Hey, as always Kyou-chan has that sour look..that can't be, you need to be more excited! This event is our chance you know? If we win in here we still can have a major debut!
Makoto: You still haven't learn, have you? I wish you would see reality.
Ray: Debuting is our dream! Are you going to give up after a small failure?
Makoto: It may be your dream but it doesn't matter to me. This band is just a mere hobby.
Shin: You two, that's enough. What are going to do if you fight just before the live.
Ray: It can not be helped. As always Kyou doesn't talk and Makoto just says cold things.
Makoto: I'm just pointing out the truth.
Ray: Ow, Japanese young man doesn't have dreams! This is what the so-called Satori generation*
Makoto: You've been living in Japan since you were 3 so you're a japanese young man too. Can you be quiet already...at least let's try and do this live?
Kyou: …
While the venue is warmly enclosed, we, just Osiris are cold. Makoto, Shin and Ray who are making noise with loud voices have their hearts cold. And it's natural. We barely saw our faces since a month ago. A month ago - From that day when Osiris had no major debut due to me...
-flashback-
Kyou: I...can't sing this song.
Makoto: Kyou...!?
Ray: Kyou, what happened! Oi!
-end flashback-
Kyou: …?
Ray: It's our turn! Man...I beg of you. For our major debut We have to win!
Makoto: He just said something imposible again...As for me, if would be enough if we don't do a shameless performance. In the first place an handmade event like this everyting it's already been decided. It's stupid to be this frantic.
Shin: You two don't go as you please! At times like this, you can do a cheer chant circle or something like that...Well, we don't have the time...let's go Kyou.
Kyou: …
This might be our last live together...
Thus Osiris finished playing in “Beginning · R” Wonder if this will be the last live for them...
*Satori generation: Young people around 20s with no ambitions whatsoever
I just saw it today since I’ve been in a short hiatus and it made my day!
Maybe for some people it may not be much but for me is a boost to my confidence so I can keep translating more games in the future! I feel that I’ve been doing well and even if just a few people read what I translate it means a whole lot to me.
So thank you to all those people that decide to read and like my translations!
Sorry for the sudden hiatus I did! 😖 University has been catching up with me and I really couldn't keep up with everything so I had to prioritize my studies over everything else (I really didn't leave my house that much just enough to go to work and go to class) BUT now that everything calmed down I can get back to translating! 💕 Next time it happens (in a few weeks probably...since I still have exams left to do🙇😵) I'm gonna make sure to announce it first! '💫
Im sorry for asking this but what's the name of the hot guy wearing a tank on your cover photo located at the top right who looks just like aomine from kuroko no basuke? And what game is he in?
Don't worry! You can ask as much as you want 😆 If I'm not wrong, he's Shirayuki Teppei! He does look like Aomine even though he has the same name as Kiyoshi 😂 And he's from the game called Band Yarouze! Join the idol hell 😏😏
Great work, a few mistakes in it tho like you addressed Tsuzuru as Tasuku a few times oh and 猫耳とかやばたん！インステ1000ええな確実 means something like; Cat ears amazing! I get 1000 likes on instagram for sure! Or something like this. He uses a lot of slang, so is hard to translate lol But again you did great.
Oh my! I didn't even notice that I put Tasuku in a few ones 😫 it went right over my head haha Thanks for pointing it out! I'm gonna fix it right away!
I swear when I need to translate Kazunari I get a little frustrated sometimes haha and thank you! Sometimes I'm not really confident when I translate some things so this kind of feedback helps out a lot!! So again thank you so much! 😝😄
*Spoilers! If you know japanese and wanna read the story by yourself DON’T READ THIS This is gonna be a translation for the event of the game!
An Adventure Surrounding Niboshi
MC: Hmm, what should we do…?
Tsuzuru: Hmmm, what should we do…?
MC: It’s hard to decide.
Tsuzuru: Yeah…
MC: It’s difficult to do the same impact that the Spring troupe had with the Alice play that they did in the park.
Tsuzuru: It’s quite difficult to do something as impressive and with that impact. After five performances from the raising play, the material needs to be changed. Even if there’s material the deciding factor is insufficent.
MC: Yeah, after all, I would like a different charm and imnpact with the Summer troupe play at the park.
Tsuzuru: Exactly! However….what do we do…
MC: What to do…
Tsuzuru: Hmm…
MC: Hmm…It seems we’re not going to go forward with this today so let’s try it again tomorrow.
Tsuzuru: That’s right.
???: -meowling sounds-
Tsuzuru: A cat?
MC: Somehow the courtyard is more lively
Misumi: Cat-san, this way!~
Muku: Hahaha!
MC: The Summer troupe?
???: -cat hissing-
Tenma: Aaah!
MC: What are they doing…?
Tsuzuru: It’s a mystery. Let’s go and see.
Tenma: Ow…This cat scratched an actor’s business tool and an important one at that.
Yuki: Of course it’s going to get angry if you hold it like that.
Misumi: That’s right~ You need to hold it more gently.
Tenma: I’m doing it gently enough.
Yuki: Tenma’s communication problem is even apparent to cats.
Tenma: What did you say!?
MC: What’s everyone doing?
Kazunari: Ah, the manager-chan and Tsuzurun! Did you finish your meeting? Thank you for your hard work~
Tsuzuku: From where is this cat?
Muku: Recently this stray cat keeps showing his head in the courtyard.
MC: Ehh~ So cute!
Kazunari: Manager-chan, look, look!
MC: Hm? The scribbling on the ground? Ah! Is this a cat drawing? It resembles it! So cute!
Kazunari: Right~?
Misumi: Kazu it’s really good at drawing~
MC: It’s not just designing but he can make this cute drawing too!
Muku: Before this, he made me a picture book.
MC: Impressive.
Kazunari: Recently I’ve been addicted to making picture books. It’s been fun doing from the design of the character to the binding of the book. Next time I’m going to do a picture book for manager-chan.
MC: Really?
Kazunari: What would you like?
MC: Then I want a story where the king of the curry country plays an active part!
Kazunari: Even in here are you thinking about curry!? But since I’m not that good at thinking the stories maybe I’m going to ask Tsuzurun to help me.
Tsuzuru: …
Kazunari: Oii, Tsuzurun?
Tsuzuru: Ah!
MC: !?
Tsuzuru: What about an adventure story about two cats!?
MC: Cat adventure?
Tsuzuru: Recently cats are popular and there’s been unprecedented cat boom, and there are many people who like cats. And what’s more, up until now a personification has never been done.
MC: I see! Now that you say it that’s right! An anthropomorphic cat is a subject only the summer group can do. Nice thinking!
Tsuzuru: Then I’m going to write the plot!
MC: Yes please!
Yuki: Cat stuff?
Kazunari: I don’t really get it but it feels like the next motif it’s been decided?
MC: Yes! It’s going to be a cat adventure!
Muku: Wah, a cat!? It feels like it’s going to be a cute stage!
Misumi: -cat sounds-
Tenma: A cat hah…
Tsuzuru: I finished writing the screenplay for second public park performance. The subject is 「An Adventure Surrounding Niboshi 」!
Tenma: This time Tsuzuru-san is alive.
MC: Every time he finishes writing the script he collapses.
Tsuzuru: I’ll leave the rest…to you
Yuki: Ah, he died.
Tenma: As expected.
MC: Tsuzuru-kun!
Misumi: Mourning～
Muku: Misumi-san, don’t say such an ill omened thing!
MC: Let’s let Tsuzuru-kun sleep and let’s reed the script.
MC:…
MC:…….
Tenma: Nya…
Yuki: It’s your head okay?
Tenma: That’s the end of the sentences!
Yuki: Oh, that’s right.
MC: Since it’s a cat, the sentences are written as a cat too.
This time it’s completely a fantasy. An adventure that happens in the world where cats live…It’s a similar comedy play though the world view is slightly different since it’s for the Summer troupe.
Tsuzuru: U…uhg…
MC: Tsuzuru-kun, it’s okay for you to get up!?
Tsuzuru: I forgot to say…an important thing
MC: What is it?
Tsuzuru: Cat ears…are indispensable
Tenma: That was the important thing he had to tell us!?
Yuki: When he was doing the Alice play, he had to wear rabbit ears. He carries a burden.
Tenma: Really…cat ears?
Muku: Woah, you can become a cat like this…!
Yuki: Do I need to do ears and tails again? It sounds very simple.
Kazunari: Cat ears are cool! I’ll certainly get a 1000 likes on insta!
Misumi: Cat ears! Triangles~!
Muku: It’s going to be fun!
MC: Everyone, start reading the script and then let’s decide the cast!
To be continued…
Thanks to @villainqueen for the feedback!! After reading it I realized that “やばたん” could've been a slang for やばい and my world just opened up 😂😂

Aim for the top?
A magazine reporter appeared in front of the nervous-looking members.
Reporter: We are from the monthly publication NEW★FACE, nice to meet you. First of all can you tell me about the group DearDream? What kind of idol are this 5 people aiming for?
Junya: Since we just debuted, I'm thinking to becoming an idol that can challenge all kind of things like singing, dancing, theater or other things like talk shows and such.
Chizuru: I want to have fun everyday with everyone! I like singing and dancing too! Since it makes me happy making fans smile I want to have even more fun with everyone!
Reporter: Which Idol do you admire? What's the ideal idol figure you aim for?
Junya: I admire Sankishi a senior from the office. We have a long way to go but if I became an idol that people in Japan can call “Cool” -
Chizuru: For me it's Fuji-san! There's no one in Japan who doesn't know Fuji-san! That's why DearDream has to aim for Fuji-san! Right?
Kanade: That's right! There's a lot of people who doesn't know about us but there's really no one who doesn't know about Fuji-san! We are going to become as huge as Fuji-san!
Shin: That's it, dreams should be big. If you work diligently with all your heart in everything, you will definitely reach the destination. However, it is not only height, we need depth. The scenery we are aiming for must be on the bottom of Baikal Lake-
Junya: No, no way! Chizuru why do you think about Fuji-san so much?
Chizuru: I want to do a live at the mountain top! At the top: Hello people from Japan!
Itsuki: Yeah, sounds good!
Junya: Why in a overseas artist manner! Let's just stop already with Fuji-san! Sorry, the members they are doing whatever they please...But I would like to find out what can the 5 of us do!
Reporter: It's a balanced and interesting unit. I am looking forward to seeing what kind of scenery you will show in the future. After this I want to ask each person.
There’s people who actually translated some of the stories of band yarouze! @skepticminds you can actually read some of them in there! I’ll probably translate more of them but since they already translated some I’m gonna start from where they left off! And if they do it faster than I do you can always read some more from there hahaha

Each passion
Kanade: Our new song...!?
When the membres arrived at the office, a new song was given to them.
Kanade: Cool! I like it!
Junya: I already want the 5 of us to sing the song!
Shin: Yeah, it might be a song that you can see with the ones we already have. I’ll have to put my thoughts into it and sing it carefully.
Chizuru: I want to practice already! Right now the tension is as high as the top of the mount Fuji.
Kanade: Then, mine is like Everest!
Junya: How do you compare that? Stop joking around, we’re not that free. Let’s start the lesson! First, the singing...-
Shin: I...the Baikal Lake
Junya: Heey~ Shin?
Shin: It is the deepest lake in the world. It has a shape similar to a crescent moon, but the lake itself is also very mysterious just like the moon. My current feelings are quiet like a lake, but as soon as passion rises without limit from the deep bottom...-
Junya: Yeah, yeah, we get your fighting spirit. Man...Even if it’s one person just listen to me! Right Itsuki!
Itsuki: Ah, yes! I was thinking about what I would like to do with the choreography of this song. I want to suggest it to the teacher... There are about 15 patterns, but what do you think about it Junya-kun?
Junya: Did you think abou all that just now!? Incredible! ...wait, that means you weren’t listening to me either...
The staff announced the next news to the members whom are very excited about the new song. This matter is...
Kanade: Magazine coverage! And right now!?
To be continued...
Things I’ll like to say:
- I always have problems to translate を込めて I swear. So if it’s not the best translation I’m sorry!!
- Chizuru...This kid and his ways of saying things sure confuse me
- It got even more confusing with Shin saying those things and for a moment I thought I wasn’t understanding what he was saying...but then he explain it...he’s the weirdest one of the group (but my fav honestly... not counting Yuto from KUROFUNE group though)

New unit: DearDream!
[Dream Festival] or [Dreamfest] was a far away dream. The only ones who that stand on that stage are going to win a debut. This time it was decided that [DearDream] debuted. This program is a close documentary of the trails and glory from DearDream.
Kanade: Uhm...I've got a mail that says [Come to the office] but what can it be? Do you know what's about, Shin-kun?
Shin: I didn't hear anything either. Whatever it is we don't have the time to think about it now. We're goint to find out if we go to the office.
Junya: Since we debuted as DearDream it'll be good if they're goint to talk about a new job for us!
Kanade: That's righ! ...Eh? In front of the office is...
Itsuki: Kanade-kun, Junya-kun, Shin-kun!
Chizuru: Yahooo~ We've been waiting for you!
Junya: Good! Since Itsuki and Chizuru are here we are all DrearDream members! Then, let's go!
Kanade: Yeah! It's exciting!

Theater is a sacred place
*Sentence in cursive is what the mc is thinking!
MC: Let's see...Where was the location of the theater? I'm sure the flyer had the map on it.
MC: ...Mankai Company.
MC: I wonder if it's at the end of Broadway. Let's go there for now.
MC: This is Broadway huh...the sacred place of theater. It seems I came here when I was little but I don't remember anything.
MC: I've heard about it but it's true that it's full ot theaters. I have to make sure to not miss the sign...
Sick looking man: ugh...
MC: ?
He crouches. I wonder if he doesn't feel well
MC: Uhm...are you okay?
Sick looking man: I-I'm fine...
It doesn't look fine at all...
???: Is something wrong?
MC: Ah...This person was crouching so I called out to him but...
Sick looking man: Really, I'm fine...
Impatient young man: Tasuku!
MC: ?
Is an acquaintance of his?
Tasuku: Haruto...
Haruto: You can't get out of the hospital!
MC: Eh?
Tasuku: But If I don't do this, I won't be able to leave the hospital for the rest of my life.
Even though it feels like it's a hasty conversation, it's a little strange.
???: Uhm...
Passerby A: Ah, it's a street act
Passerby B: I've seen their performance!
Street act? Oh, I see!
???: What shoudl be do? It feels like it's okay now.
MC: Yes. Let's move a bit.
???: Eh? But...
MC: If you watch you'll understand.
???: ???
Tasuku: I already said it! I'm not going to be healed at the hospital!
Haruto: That's not true!
Tasuku: Don't lie! The other day, I saw you talking with the teacher...
Haruto: Eh?
Tasuku: I don't wanna die not knowing anything. I want a chance to know about my illness...Haruto, please...
Haruto: There's too many people here. Let's talk at the hospital.
Tasuku: ...Okay
MC: It's the end?
Tasuku: Thanks for watching!
Haruto: Thank you!
Passerby A: As expected, Godza actors are great~
Passerby B: You get attracted to their acting right~
MC: It's true, you can't take your eyes off! At that moment I didn't think it was a play.
???: Eh? Acting? That was a play?
MC: It was a street act. It's an improvised street performance. The theater company members are doing it as both money earning and advertisement.
???: Ah! Like a play improvisation or a flashmob?
MC: Exactly. It's pretty popular when there are many small theaters, but at first it's surprising.
???: Eh~ As expected of the city of theater. I have to study even more.
Tasuku: You guys, sorry for making you worry before. Thank you.
Haruto: I was surprised when I went out and I saw you talking to passerbys.
Tasuku: It's because you were late at coming out.
Haruto: Are you saying it's my fault?
MC: It was a bit surprising but it was really interesting.
Tasuku: If you'll like, next time come to Godza to see the play.
MC: Sure.
???: Excuse me but are they searching for new members at Godza?
Haruto: We are but are you a candidate?
???: I'm still thinking but do you have a residence?
Haruto: We don't. Everyone lives with their parents except for some people that rent a room nearby. It's a handful for people who has to earn money. There are a lot of people who always depend of the allowance.
???: I see...
Haruto: But it's different if you are experienced and skilled.
???: I understand, thank you. Well then... -He throws a coin-
Tasuku: Thank you very much.
That kid wants to enter in a theater company... It's a nostalgic feeling it's just as I see myself in the old days. I'm going to thow a coin too.
Haruto: Thank you very much! See you~
These kids have a splendid performance, they act really well and I guess they are popular. As expected the level of Broadway is really high. I'm going to be looking forward to the next play!
This is...Mankai company right? It seems that there is an amazing history, or maybe it's old, it's pretty worn-out...! There's suposed to be a performance today but there's no signs of people...I wonder if it's going to be okay... If I came all the way to such a place and this letter was just a prank...
-Flashback-
MC: Mankai company... it's the theater company from my father right? The one who sent the letter must know something about dad. If I meet with this person I may be able to know something.
Mother: Then do whatever you want, since mom doesn't know anything.
MC: It's been 8 years since dad it's gone right? Isn't mom worried?
Mother: I don't even know where he could be and we cut any connection we had so I don't care.
-End flashback-
MC: To say something like that... mom, you're really not worried about dad aren't you? Also, the sender of the letter is Isuke Matsukawa but what kind of relationship does he have with my dad. Is he an authorized staff?
???: Hey you, do you have some bussines with this theater?
MC: --
MC: Could it be Matsukawa-san-
Yakuza looking man: Huh?
Wrong. It's wrong. I hope it's wrong!
Yakuza looking man: You are...no way.
MC: Ah, it's a mistake. I haven't recieved a letter or anything. I'm just passerby A.
No way my father was in such a pinch to be in debt right?
Yakuza looking man: If you don't have any bussines here, don't just leave. It's going to be dangerous in here.
MC: Dangerous...?
???: AAAHHH!!
???: HEYHEYHEY~
MC: !?
W-what!? T-that sound...
Eh, an exavator!?
To be continued...
There's some things I'll like to say:
- The 休調 kanji it's a bit difficult for me to understand so that's kind of my guess! Sorry!
- I don't really know what the mom says so I did a rough translation! She says something about dying and such but I'm not really sure
- I swear Haruto is so hard to translate I'm not even sure If I did it right sometimes omg

Someday in the future
The empty theater gets pretty warm with people's enthusiasm. The audience seats are full. I feel the expectation and the quiet excitement even through the curtain.
It's the concluding program. I want to show everything I've done so far. Because of the tension and the anxiety, my legs feel like jelly.
Masumi: …
Sakuya: As always Masumi-kun is as cool as ever. Totally different from me.
Tsuzuru: …
Sakuya: Tsuzuru-kun has been reading the script all this time. He's not going to change the lines again is he?
Itaru: …
Sakuya: It seems that Itaru-san is nervous too. As the leader I have to hold up.
Citron: …
Sakuya: As always I don't know what Citron-san is thinking but he seems calm.
Sakuya: …
Sakuya: It's fine. I thought many times how impossible it was but I've come so far. Yet here I am. My heart trembles. Tension, anxiety and excitement are all mixed up and my heart feels like it's going to burst. I'm so nervous I feel like laughing. I'm sure today we are going to bloom for the first time.
OKAY so in a few days or probably today I’m gonna start translating the main story of A3! 💕
If someone has already started some of the story I can always put it in this blog together with mine! ALWAYS WITH THEIR CREDIT OF COURSE. I’ll put a link to their blog so you can always check them out! ✨
I’m gonna do this translation for chapters and not for troupes because it would be too long aaaaaaand to much work for me hahaha
the worst feeling is when you’re totally obsessed with something and none of your friends like/know/or care about such thing so you have to cry on your own
