Stage Play Touken Ranbu Guden Mujun Genji Monogatari Saien (rerun) English Subtitles

After a lot of retiming, a little bit of editing and re-polishing and translating the new lines, here are my subtitles for the stream version of Guden Rerun. New supporting cast, new battle moves and of course a new bombshell towards the end :) Please enjoy! UPD: Updated with bd/dvd version subtitles! Link and disclaimers here 🡇

Guden Mujun Genji Monogatari Saien English Subtitles (stream)

These soft subtitles were timed to DMM stream of the final performance and include a translation of the curtain call.

Guden Mujun Genji Monogatari Saien English Subtitles (BD/DVD) Main Performance, Curtain Call

Reminder that I also made a little translation note doc for the original run so please feel free to take a look if you haven't before!

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 ;)

They might just change your life!

Stage Play "Genshiki: Kainashi" / 言式「解なし」 English Subtitles

Here's a little something that's definitely a personal project - english subtitles for Genshiki (Umetsu Mizuki and Hashimoto Shohei) 1st: Kainashi, or "No Answer". Initially made these because my friends said they'd watch if i did 😅I also bought the script book during my Japan trip so this put it to good use. I'm not sure how to advertise this show but it's a great work and I'd be extremely happy if someone checked it out!

Suishinshi version: livestream / bluray and dvd

Kiyomaro version: livestream / bluray and dvd / curtain call bddvd ver (the livestream ver. has the curtain call included in the same file)

Stage Play "Castor & Pollux" English Subtitles

For a slightly more self-indulgent project, i've made english subtitles for stage play "Castor & Pollux", known for being written and directed by Sato Ryuji (my personal thanks go out to him for overseeing the casting 😄) they talk a LOT in this one (and joke a lot… i did my very best to convey that pls be gentle 🙇‍♀️) this was a very fun translation of a very explosive performance! i hope more people can check it out now ✌️

Stage Play Sollievo English Subtitles

The drama already had subtitles out there, so I made some for the stage play version of Sollievo! It continues the story from the drama so I hope those who enjoyed the series will check it out as well. Links and disclaimers here 🡇

Stage Play Sollievo - bd/dvd version

Stage Play Sollievo - dmm archive version

Pretty Boy Detective Club Stage 1 English Subtitles

The very first subtitles that I released into the world were actually for the first installment of Bishounen Tanteidan (迷宮歌劇「美少年探偵団」)! I'm extremely grateful to have had the lyric sheets for the songs, because they feature some very unpredictable english haha. I still love this production a lot and am hoping to subtitle the sequel very soon as well! Link and disclaimers here 🡇

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!

Stage Play Touken Ranbu Shiden Tsuketari Kitan No Soumatou English Subtitles

Shiden (k)! Also known as Shiden1. Or Shiden Soumatou. Or-

My absolute personal favourite portrayal of the shinsengumi swords up to this day, and also probably a stage you could watch standalone if you must (i will be in your walls whispering to watch the whole thing instead tho) Link and disclaimers here 🡇

Stage Play Touken Ranbu Yamanbagiri Kunihiro Tandokukou (solo performance) English Subtitles

While I want to recommend this play to everyone for how amazingly crafted it is, I'm also thoroughly convinced that it can only be appreciated after all of the tousute that comes before it... It is a bit of a universal agreement that this is a love letter, to both the Japanese swords as a whole and to touken ranbu and tousute in particular. Link and disclaimers here 🡇

Stage Play Touken Ranbu Tenden Aozora No Tsuwamono English Subtitles

The winter siege of Osaka... Doing this and Muden (because they cannot be separated, of course), was a massive undertaking - almost 7 hours of video! Luckily I did have Japanese closed captions to check myself against and eliminate guesswork, because this duology deserves to be enjoyed with the highest possible quality!

Stage Play Touken Ranbu Kaihen Ikusayu no Adabana no Kioku English Subtitles

Kaihen is "the covid version" of Kiden, yes, but also not quite! I feel like it really deserves being seen for all the effort put into it, and I hope more people will give it a try now.
