Kinou nani tabeta episodes in English.

[kinounaniresource]

Hello! Woke up to this email. Someone has flagged my movie post. I'd rather not get my entire tumblr terminated, so I've deleted all of my uploads from this site. I will probably deactivate this blog too as soon as I learn how. What this means is my fansubbing activities are unfortunately over. You can contact me @isaksbestpillow

It's been a pleasure! Thank you & take care!

Kinou nani tabeta episode 10: some family is chosen

I'm not subbing this show (oh how I miss it!), but I really wanted to say a couple of words about this episode that beautifully illustrated forms of found or chosen family, from contrasting Shiro-san's boss's strained relationship with her daughter-in-law to her fondness of Shiro-san, to Kenji's mom seeing and appreciating Shiro-san's place in Kenji's life.

At the heart of this episode or perhaps the whole season is a line Kenji's mom says at the end of the dinner when Shiro-san insists his place is below Kenji's mother and sisters: 他人でも身内ってことはあると思うのよ、tanin demo miuchi tte koto wa aru to omou no yo. I don't know how this line has been translated on Gagaoolala, but I'd like to take a closer look at it with you!

We have two contrasting concepts here: 他人 and 身内, tanin and miuchi. Miuchi, literally 'inside the body', means one's close relatives. The opposite of miuchi is tanin, 'other person', everyone else. The spectrum of tanin is wide. Some even say at the end of the day everyone is tanin since you can only truly know yourself. In the eyes of the law, tanin is what queer people are to each other. You can share a life together, but if you are not in each other's family registries, you are a tanin, a no one. Kenji's mom disagrees, however, saying: tanin demo miuchi tte koto wa aru to omou no yo, I think sometimes tanin can be miuchi. In other words, some family is chosen, I think.

I chose this particular still because it spoke to me on a visceral level. In Japanese, the words for seeing someone off is 見送る, miokuru. Literally it means to send with watching. You stand there watching their receding backs until they disappear from sight. I just found this small moment incredibly romantic. Seeing someone off on your own, an emptiness lingers afterwards, at least to me. But standing there with someone you love, as a unit, is different, or so I feel like. They're saying goodbye to family, as family, before going back to the home they share.

The reason Kenji's mom wants to meet Shiro-san is because she worries for him were something to happen to Kenji. She wants him to be able to send Kenji off with the rest of the family. To send someone off is also, you guessed it, miokuru, to send with watching. Many queer people still have to miokuru their lifelong partners in secret or alone. It's horribly quiet and horribly lonely, with no one to share your true grief with. Kenji's mom is wise enough to know no one should have to experience that.

They're all gonna be there side by side, seeing off whoever goes first.

Remove Your Media appears to be a sketchy company that goes around reporting everyone from small etsy shops to the sims fan artists. I have no interest in defying them at my own expense since technically my subs are illegal, so I'm going to call it quits. It was good while it lasted!

[kinounaniresource]

Hi

I have been following you since s1(maybe before) and I just wanted to let you know that your subs are super appreciated, it's not only a translation but a thoughtful and enriching translation that makes the experience of watching this shows even more significant.

In that note, if you decide to sub S2 I would definitely be watching. I'm not eager to watch it asap, so more than happy to wait for your subs.

Also if you decide to not do it I will totally support you bc health is always a priority. But also bc you have already done so much for international fans of knt, take your time and you do you 😊✨🌻

(P.D: sorry if the phasing is a little bit odd, I haven't written in english for a while)

Thank you! I actually just posted subs for episode 1 so please check them out when you have time! And no need to worry about English when communicating with me, it's not my first language either. 🌻All these years and I'm still not sure whether to use the or a or neither haha.

[kinounaniresource]

Your subs would ABSOLUTELY be worth the wait. 100% absolutely. Thinking of you in (hopefully) rest and healing that's as comfortable as possible!

Thank you!! I actually just finished subbing the first scene, surprise. I don't recommend to camp around my blog but we'll see how this goes.

[isaksbestpillow]

I haven't been able to cook this year but I found pics from last autumn before I got sick

[kinounaniresource]

To be honest, I would appreciate your subs, whenever you have time. I'd likely watch the Gaga version, and then once your subs were out I'd rewatch it with your subs instead, to check for inaccuracies in the Gaga version (I agree, Gaga's subbing is... not great). All of which to say - no pressure, take your time and focus on your health, but your subs are still very much appreciated!

Thank you! I'm frankly really frustrated and fed up with my endo situation, so I feel like subbing could at least give me some sense of purpose when my life is basically on pause. But it'll have depend on my pain and fatigue levels 🍓

[kinounaniresource]

In season 2 we'll have to say goodbye to the familiar opening sequence to welcome a new theme song written by Oohashi Torio. Here are a couple of his older songs to get u started!

[kinounaniresource]

Your Kinou subs are the ones I trust. They're worth waiting a month or even a year for. Don't rush yourself or put yourself through any pain for it, but definitely know that when you're ready to and when you want to, people will be very excited for your work!

Thank you!! I hope the Gaga subs will do their job but it's nice to have people still appreciating my work. :)

[kinounaniresource]

Thank you!! I kinda want to frame this comment because the food talk really was the hardest bit to translate haha. I mean how many times can you make a person say delicious without sounding like an elementary english for japanese speakers textbook.

Hi! I’m a long-time enjoyer of your knt subs and I just saw your post about subbing knt s2, but I’m too shy of replying it publicly so I’m sending an anonymous ask. I know how hard endometriosis is for people who has it, I’m very sorry and I wish you a speedy recovery!

I personally think stream sites’ official subs sometimes lost the nuance of the original language, which I think definitely affects the viewing experience. Your subs, however, captures it beautifully, making things easy to understand but also not losing the original meaning the writers intended. So, if you decide to sub knt s2, no matter how slow and unscheduled it is, I will be amongst those waiting for it! But then, of course your health matters most. If subbing knt s2 takes a toll on you, then you shouldn’t. You do the hard work of subbing contents for free, you should do it on your terms and not have it affect your health.

Thank you for the well-wishes!!

I like to have a little bit of fun translating character voices so I'm glad if they work for you! But honestly, my main issue with Gagaoola (and Viki too, but that's a whole another can of worms) isn't even lack of nuance but lack of understanding. There have been more than one occasion where the translator seems to only have heard or understood a couple of words and created an original line around them. It reminds me of myself in high school when I'd get a a bizarre conclusion on a math exam like the school can afford to buy -17 computers, quietly erase the minus and pretend like everything was fine haha. There's free translation, which I fully support, and then there's a plain mistake.

Hello! I am so excited for the new season of きのう何食べた. I am moving to Japan in a few months and hope to be able to watch the show as it is airing. I am not very familiar with Japanese TV or streaming services, and whenever I try to search for the channel it airs on, I can't seem to find any info. If it isn't too much of a bother would you be able to please share the best way to watch the show as it airs in Japan? Thank you!

Hello and sorry for the late reply.

As of now, you can watch it on these channels: TV Tokyo, TV Osaka, TV Aichi, TV Setouchi, TVQ Kyuushuu. There is no nation wide TV distribution for now. I watched the first season on TV Tokyo's website because it wasn't shown in my home prefecture.

After the initial airing day, each episode will be available to watch on Tver (I think) as well as TV Tokyo's website for a week. You can also catch them on Lemino and U-next.

Hi and hello! As you may know, the second season of Kinou nani tabeta is only a few days away, and it is getting an international release on the subscription based service Gagaoolala. This is all great news, but at the same time I unfortunately don't have much faith in Gaga's subs because they have been subpar in the past and their trailer translation did nothing to ease my worry.

I'm a bit confused how to proceed from here. This show has been my lovechild all these years, and I'm happy it's finally getting official recognition outside of my fansub efforts, but it would also be weird not to sub it anymore because I frankly am quite attached to it.

Were this any other year I would start subbing the minute I've finished download the raw, but as some of you may know, my endometriosis has been out of control this year and things like sitting at a desk have become difficult for me. I'm currently seeking treatment and hopeful I'll get excision surgery in the upcoming months, but I really can't commit to anything right now. Because of my health issues, my subbing schedule would be very slow and sporadic. I'm not sure whether there is much need for my slow and unscheduled subs when the weekly ones are right there, probably available on all the illegal streaming sites just moments later.

I don't know!

What Did You Eat Yesterday? Season 2 Teaser

Gaga released a subbed version of the teaser. We are so close.

[isaksbestpillow]

I really don't want to build a reputation as a gagaoolala hater but I have to point out glaring mistranslations in the trailer.

Shiro-san: 低脂肪乳を二本買っておくべきだった Teishibounyuu o nihon katte oku beki datta 俺としたことが、ひよった Ore to shita koto ga, hiyotta

Gagaoolala translation: I didn't get to make low-fat Japanese food. This is excruciating.

Siiri translation: I should've gotten two cartons of low-fat milk. Damn it, I chickened out.

Kenji: そこはそう思ってても否定するのもやさしさでしょう Soko wa sou omottetemo hitei suru no mo yasashisa deshou

Gagaoolala translation: Of course one would think that. But could he not be a little gentler in his refusal?

Siiri translation: Even if you think so, denying it is being nice = You didn't have to be so blunt.

It's not clear whether Kenji is talking about you or he without context, but the Gagaoolala translation isn't supported by anything in the source text.

I hope these will be their only blunders and the actual show will be translated with professionalism.

Hello!

I hope this message finds you well.

I was curious if you'd seen anything in Japanese entertainment reporting news about the filming or release schedule for the second season?

Have a good day!

-Ben

I haven't really seen any new info since the initial announcement but it's set to start airing in October so the filming most likely hasn't started yet. Japanese shows tend to film as they're releasing.

For everyone not following my personal blog, I'm definitely planning on subbing the second season as long as I have the raws, but I've been experiencing some major health issues this year (endometriosis my beloathed) so it's been hard for me to stick to any schedules or make any long-term promises. This is also the reason I've been neglecting this blog all year. :(

Okaerinasai!!!!!! I was pretty sure they'd come back for another season after the success of the movie but I'm still screaming, shaking, throwing up etc.

Kenji & Shiro-san are now arafifu aka in their 50s. The show will air in its usual Friday night slot starting in October. The regular cast will reprise their roles and the script will once again be handled by Adachi Naoko.

Comments from the team I translated from the official site:

Nishijima Hidetoshi (Shiro-san):

Everyone involved was sincerely hoping we could come together once more, so while getting here may not have been easy, I'm beyond happy we are now getting season 2.

I have to do even better to deliver for the viewers who have been rooting for us this far. I've always been passionate about having everyone enjoy and fall in love with this drama, but that passion is now even greater than before, so I'm going to give it my all.

Everything we've experienced in the real world, the characters have experienced as well. They're getting older just like us. I hope to convey this with authenticity alongside Uchino-san, the regular cast and guest stars. The whole team is working with determination and earnestness just like before, so please look forward to the season.

Uchino Seiyou (Kenji) As time passes, Kenji and Shiro-san change, as do I as a performer. I want to confront this drama afresh.

I hope this season will feel natural and unstrained. May it also make you remember your loved ones more.

Kenji and Shiro-san are starting a new chapter in their lives. I would be happy to be able to share this mellow and gentle world with everyone.

Yoshinaga Fumi (manga author)

A lot has happened in the world between season 1, the new year's special, the movie and now this upcoming season 2. I'm so glad to get to meet Kenji and Shiro-san who have aged just like us. I'm also excited about all the delicious food and the lovely soundtrack.

Abe Masashi (producer)

Getting older brings all kinds of direct and indirect trials and tribulations be it responsibilities at work, family members getting sick, or your body not being able to take it like it used to. Now in their 50s, Kenji and Shiro-san have to face various challenges that sometimes take an emotional toll on the couple. Still, food remains the center piece of their lives. I have faith the viewers will see the heartwarming meals of the characters and think maybe getting older is not all that bad. Please look forward to it.

Seto Mariko (producer)

We've kept you waiting!! Season 2 is finally here. I'd also been waiting for this moment I get to meet Kenji and Shiro-san again.

Life goes on for Kenji and Shiro-san. Ordinary days go by as they gather around a meal. Some things change while others stay the same, but the two of them continue their journey in their own way. We're weaving this story with the same mindset as season 1, like we're allowed to peek into the lives of Kenji and Shiro-san just a little from beside them. Whenever we start filming for this drama, it fills me with a sense of relief, like they're really back. The whole Nanitabe family is working with determination, so please look forward to the airing date!

Our dining table ep 3 eng sub

Sorry I'm one week late! As some of you may know, I've had a lot of health problems this year and I just had surgery to remove a fibroid but my symptoms haven't resolved yet. I'm still gonna continue subbing though and hoping I'll get better soon.

Good news is I've finally learned to download videos from Tver so my raws are no longer huge. Hooray!

RAW subtitle

See you again in episode 4! If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
