ARVALE ANIMATED TRIBUTE

After half a year's work... BEHOLD!

BEHOLD A MERE GLIMPSE INTO THE CHARMING TALES OF A R V A L E

No idea what you just saw? Fret not! I went into a disgusting amount of detail explaining everything here. Fair warning though, if you are the type of person who wants to avoid spoilers, then I have some questions for you first...

Do you like RPGs? Especially the old ones? Want to experience more instead of just a glimpse? Well... for some of Arvale's Tales, that is sadly no longer possible. But this is not the case for the first and the second.

Stage Play Touken Ranbu Koden Amaneku Toki no Haruka e English Subtitles

Every new tousute always forces me to learn something new, and it's triple true for Koden and its three separate stories. From learning the names of cuts used in testing swords, through Ryukyuan language and mythology all the way to becoming good friends with a kobun dictionary. A ride most enjoyable!

Koden Amaneku Toki no Haruka e English Subtitles

These soft subtitles were timed to the Bluray version and will also fit the DMM Archive.

Please read!

All translations are done by me without using MTL. Editor credits, if applicable, are included. Do not edit these subtitles beyond minor retiming for personal use and especially do not remove credits.

I provide subtitle files only and encourage supporting the original productions by purchasing the video through official means (you can ask me for pointers on how to do that).

DO NOT make hardsubbed videos using my subtitles and especially do not upload any clips, gifs, screenshots etc to any public streaming websites, social media and the like. If I notice this happening I will take the files down forever. Please, we have a hard enough time getting to see these stages as it is. Let's be sensible.

If you would like to buy me a coffee for the efforts, I would never say no to that ;)

[ID: A drawing of my character Koden, a human man standing in front of a dark square background. He balances an umbrella over his shoulder and looks towards the viewer as a single golden tear rolls down his cheek. Koden has pale skin and undershaved blonde hair tied up in a bun. His eyes are unnaturally solid gold and his nose drips with an unknown black substance. He’s wearing a black hoodie under a green jacket adorning a medical service patch. /end ID]

“I gladly gave my life for yours.

Would I might give it now!

Or on some sacrificial stone

Strange Gods we satisfied.”

2 / 6 - Tenshinryu ( 天心流 ) Hyouho ( 兵法 ) Battojutsu ( 抜刀術 )

Tenshinryu has the technique used inside castle which is called "Denchu Toho Saya no Uchi (殿中刀法鞘之中)". In addition, we study not only the form of "Uchigatana (打刀)" but also those of "Tachi (太刀)" as "Koden (古伝), old style". In accordance with the lifestyle of samurai, we always wear "Wakizashi (脇差) in training. Tenshinryu teaches modern people knowledge of tactics and rich techniques which are needed in various situations such as "lying down, waking up, sitting, standing, walking and running". It's an extraordinary piece of martial art!

My OC Koden! It took me a while to decide to post him because, idk, people can sometimes be... judgy when it comes to artists sharing their OC’s. Well, you know what, I love him, I hope others grow to love him, and if there’s someone who doesn’t, please just keep your hate to yourself, lovelies.
