(IDOLiSH7) Never Green - GREEN BUBBLE [English Translation]

Link to my Twitter post with the color-coded lyrics

Lyrics:

I can be anything ... ever ...

はじまりを辿るような最果てを巡るような

Hajimari o tadoru you na, saihate o meguru you na

As if tracing the beginning, as if circling the farthest ends,

記憶の旅はいつも少し苦く僕の心揺らす

Kioku no tabi wa itsumo sukoshi nigaku boku no kokoro yurasu

The voyage through memories always leaves my heart shaken with a hint of bitterness

あの日見えた空は何色だった

Ano hi mieta sora wa nani iro datta

What color was the sky I saw on that day?

そんなことも忘れちゃう

Sonna koto mo wasurechau

I’ll end up forgetting even such things

(きっと)いつの日かそう

(Kitto) itsu no hi ka, sou

(Surely) someday, that’s right

何度眠れずに夜を越えた?

Nando nemurezu ni yoru o koeta?

How many nights did I spend sleeplessly crossing over

辿り着いた朝の眩しさに

Tadoritsuita asa no mabushisa ni

To the radiance of the morning that finally arrived?

振り返れば今も綺麗だな

Furikaereba ima mo kirei da na

When I look back, they’re still just as beautiful

きみと過ごした日の面影 (I just remember)

Kimi to sugoshita hi no omokage (I just remember)

The memories of the days I spent with you (I just remember)

後悔を携えたままじゃ

Koukai o tazusaeta mama ja

If I’m only ever carrying regrets,

気付けないことがあると気付いたから

Kizukenai koto ga aru to kizuita kara

I recognized there are things that I may never recognize

What I gained from

What I gained from

The time spent with you

What I gained from

What I gained from

The time spent with you

New day (for me) new me (for me)

It made me who I am today

思い出と呼べるほど優しくはないけれど

Omoide to yoberu hodo yasashiku wa nai keredo

Though they aren’t warm enough to be called reminiscences,

たしかにそこに在った日々はいつも僕を強くさせる

Tashika ni soko ni atta hibi wa itsumo boku o tsuyoku saseru

Those days that undoubtedly existed, always make me stronger

大人になるほどに失うことは怖いから

Otona ni naru hodo ni ushinau koto wa kowai kara

The older I become, the more afraid I feel of losing something

今でも(ずっと)臆病だけど

Ima demo (zutto) okubyou dakedo

So even now (constantly), I’m still a coward, but

愛を知ることに躊躇しても大切なものは守れない

Ai o shiru koto ni chuucho shitemo taisetsu na mono wa mamorenai

If I keep hesitating to realize love, I can't protect what's important

握り締めた手の中にある

Nigirishimeta te no naka ni aru

In the grasp of my tightly clenched hands, they’re there

きみがあの日くれた言葉が (save me forever)

Kimi ga ano hi kureta kotoba ga (save me forever)

The words you gave me that day (save me forever),

立ち止まり震えてた僕を導くみたいに連れ出してくれたから

Tachidomari furueteta boku o michibiku mitai ni tsuredashite kureta kara

Even as I stood still, trembling, they led me forward, as if guiding me

傷だらけになってもちゃんと 笑えてるのは

Kizu darake ni natte mo chanto waraeteru no wa

Despite being covered in bruises, the reason I’m able to smile is

前を向いていられたから

Mae o muite irareta kara

Because I was able to keep moving forward

今の僕はあの頃とは少し 違う

Ima no boku wa ano koro to wa sukoshi chigau

The person I am now is slightly different from the one I was back then

変わり続けよう

Kawaritsuzuke you

Let's keep changing

振り返れば今も綺麗だな

Furikaereba ima mo kirei da na

When I look back, they’re still just as beautiful

きみと過ごした日の面影 (I just remember)

Kimi to sugoshita hi no omokage (I just remember)

The memories of the days I spent with you (I just remember)

後悔を脱ぎ捨てた僕は

Koukai o nugisuteta boku wa

After casting aside my regrets,

少しだけ強く優しくなれたから

Sukoshi dake tsuyoku yasashiku nareta kara

I was able to become just a little stronger and kinder

What I gained from

What I gained from

The time spent with you

What I gained from

What I gained from

The time spent with you

New day (for me)

New me (for me)

It made me who I am today

This lovely person on twitter noticed in Free! The Final Stroke Part 2 that when Haru and Rin are practicing on their own, in their separate training sites, the flags at the pool are white + their respective image colors (blue for Haru and red for Rin), but after they reunite at the night pool and start training together, the flags share both of their colors ;;;;;;;

[hitomikisugi]

Right now I just want to become stronger!

[eleanorenchanted]

I wish they’d make up and be friends already

I’m sure they’d get along really well!

[eleanorenchanted]

I never cared about things like medals before.

But this time, I want to go all out and win one.

I want to win a medal…with you.

[eleanorenchanted]

No one knows what’s going to happen from now on

So let’s go find out what lies ahead of us

[eleanorenchanted]

[eleanorenchanted]

It’s not crazy

It’s free

[eleanorenchanted]

Thanks for everything, Free!

[rinharuweek]

One of the Rinharu moments that I treasure the most and that I don't talk about so often is the pool scene from the first episode of the third season.

THAT MOMENT SCREAMS SOULMATES SO MUCH THAT I CAN'T HELP GET EXCITED EVERYTIME WHEN I WATCH IT, its a parallel scene in which no words are said but WHAT IS FELT and shown speaks for itself!!Rin and Haru are connected, connected in a way so deep andb surreal that they feel each other's presence when they dive into the water, despite being literally a continent apart,

What can be more beautiful than that?

LIKE DUDE!! LOOK AT THEIR FACES!

both for a moment believed that they would find the other in the opposite lane..

I know it is a short scene compared to others, however, I think it is one of the things that the third season achieves best among everything it did not achieve: show us the unbreakable bond of those who are the soul of the series...(⁠ ⁠◜⁠‿⁠◝⁠ ⁠) 💙❤️

Yes! It's the little details that show how connected they are! You put it so well here!

[eleanorenchanted]

I admire you. Don’t make me keep saying it.

Free 10th anniversary pants

Starting around 4 min:

"A coincidence or on purpose?"

Oh my, a philosophical question. 

This is from a listener named "Mofu-san". Thank you very much.

"Hello, Nobunaga-san and staff! This is my first time writing in to a radio show."

Thank you! There's really so many people writing in for the first time. That's great. But I'm sorry that we can only read member mails. But I'm glad you're listening.

"The other day the free 10th anniversary main visual was revealed."

That's right. They're holding a 10th anniversary event for the very successful Free series that was the first work I appeared in. It was the main visual for that. All of the characters were lined up in new outfits. They released a main visual like that.

"I was wondering something about it. It's about the design of Matsuoka Rin's pants.

They have a unique design of a row of flowers on the inside of the leg and it became a hot topic because they look exactly like the pants that you wore at the Jump Fest last December. Did you notice this? I don't know if they were clothes you picked out yourself or if they provide them for you, but if possible, could you tell us a behind the scenes story about how you came to acquire those pants?"

Hey, Rin! I told you not to wear those in public! If we wear the same clothes people will find out! 

People will find out we live together, Rin! 

If we share clothes they'll find out!

Like it's nothing special

I'm happy about it. That Rin would wear something similar to me. It's great.

Now, was it a coincidence? Was it on purpose? Was it fate? Was it an accident? Or what?

Well, I don't know... Hmm... Please look forward to the Free 10th anniversary! 

No, No! I'm just saying stuff!

I don't know if that answer will come up! Or my outfit from the Jump fest in December but if the topic comes up we might talk about it but we also might not!
