the opening song from Ar-Tonelico.

I'm testing out posting songs. :) a song from Ar-Tonelico, the game.

Edit: added the lyrics

EXEC_CHRONICLE_KEY/.

opening theme song from .hack//Roots

EDIT: added lyric

Silly-Go-Round 夢から醒めても この手を伸ばすよ…… 同じ強さで呼び合う 心になれるのならば 何人分の傷でも 僕は受け止められるよ もう少しだって気がするんだ この壁が崩れる黎明 夢から醒めてもまだ見ない夢の方まで 僕等は一人で走り続けるしかないんだ 転がり迷って作り出す僕の引力が いつか　君へ 寂しさに流されたり 嘘を嘘で隠したり 何度も間違えたのに また「最後の恋」をして 見飽きたはずの黄昏が こんなに綺麗だと泣いた ゴールのつもりで リセットボタンに飛び込んで 僕等はぐるぐる同じ場所を回ってるんだ 勢い任せでいつかは昨日の引力を 越える　君と 僕は君に出会う 夢から醒めても 僕等は夢を乗り継いで まだ見ぬ誰かに懲りずに この手を伸ばすんだ 足りない心と身体が愛を捜す引力が 届く　君に 夢から醒めても この手を伸ばすよ……

The ED theme of Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu

the ED theme of .hack//roots, national awakening.

I recall someone raised a question regarding the correctness of my ED karaoke lyric. I guess now it's official, my version is correct.

亡国覚醒カタルシス 嘆キナ壁ハ　積ミ上ゲラレテ 愚カナ神ハ　奉ラレル 生きるは毒杯　杞憂の苦しみを 飲み干す術を誰が授けよう 太陽に棲むと云う賢者の鷲 羽博きだけが谺する この双つの眸に宿った 闇と光　その何方で 僕は未来を 見つめるべきなのだろう 渇き切った瓦礫の街 点と線を繋ぎ合わせ 意味など無い事ばかり 溢れてゆく 炎のごとき孤独 抱く體　鎮めては 暗渠へと滴ってく雫 掲げる毒杯　この生は満ちても 焦がれる死の夢は流れ着く 砦に喰い込む爪　孤高の鷲 羽博きだけ　舞い上がる あの蒼穹に磔刑にしてくれたまえ 天と地が結ぶ場所に僕は立つ 花実のような記憶たちは 燒かれ爛れ抜け殻だけ あの日の魂は 何処へ行ったのだろう 冷たい膚　寄せて触れて 胸の傷と傷を合わせ 再び辿るべき地図 ここに刻む 世界は見えぬ翼 その黒影に隠された 純白の一羽　射止めよ 生きるは祝杯　口移しの快楽 渇く嗤いも息も絶え絶えに まぐわいあう慰みの掌に 虚しさだけが脹らんで ああ玉砕と美しく散りゆくならば 恍惚の先にはまだ君が居る 嘆キナ壁は　突キ崩サレテ 愚カナ民ハ　鏖サレル 生きるは毒杯　愛する哀しみを 飲み干す術を誰が授けよう 月下に眠ると云う静かの鷲 啼き声だけ　舞い降りて 掲げる祝杯　わが生は満ちても 果敢ない死の遊戯は果てもなく 砦に喰い込む爪　孤高の鷲 羽博きだけが舞い上がる あの蒼穹に磔刑にしてくれたまえ 罪と罰を生む時代を僕は視る

EDIT: typed out the lyric, removed the scan

the OP theme of Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu

OK, this song is not in any anime(none that I'm aware of), but I thought it's really good, couldn't help myself but to post it out.

Kyuudou no Hito(求道の人, or "The person who is seeking enlightenment") by Shimamiya Eiko(島宮えい子).

EDIT: great lyric(and no, I won't translate it...), spent a few mins to type it out:

求道の人 清らか過ぎて魚も住めない その水を回し飲みしている 選ばれた者たちが放つ 根拠の無い安らかなオーラ 抱えきれないこの荷物を すべて降ろせば楽になれる 預言者のようにあなたは言うけど そんなことは百も承知している あなたは求道の人 より高く　より遠く　より清く 戯れ切ったこの俗世を背に 孤高を貫けばいい 私もまた求道の人 より低く　より近く　より熱く 朽ち果てるまで分かち合うのさ ここにいる人すべてと 命を産み出すそのからだは 愛しい連鎖を閉ざして 自分で引いた結界の中で この星の行く末を案じている あなたがもし本当に 神様みたいな人ならそんなところに 座ってないで　祈ってないで 今すぐここへ来て 抱えきれないこの荷物に 押しつぶされそうになった時 私の背中をさすって欲しい 赤ん坊みたいに あなたは求道の人 より高く　より遠く　より清く 戯れ切ったこの俗世を背に 孤高を貫けばいい 私もまた求道の人 より低く　より近く　より熱く 朽ち果てるまで分かち合うのさ ここにいる人すべてと そこにいるあなたと

Hoshiyomi from Ar Tonelico.

It's the cultural festival! Not only the SOS dan is debuting their new movie, Suzumiya also gets to do a live performance(hence the title)!

The attached song is the full version of the insert song Suzumiya Haruhi(Hirano Aya) sang in this episode.

The performance, featuring Nagato and Suzumiya.

Suzumiya Haruhi...

The band.

Asahina's class is opening a yakisoba shop, with girls wearing nice costumes.

Mizuki Kyouka, Shino and Haseo's theme song, the song that always plays when they are together alone...

Another song done by ALI PROJECT.

水月鏡花 遙かな記憶は 水面に描いた 翡翠の波間に　浮かび わたしの身体は 届かぬ底方へ 撓み沈み搖れて落ちる 生まれくる前に 視た夢が泳ぎつく場所は なんにもなくても すべてがあふれる 光で織られた岸辺でしょうか ぬくもる目蓋は 開くの　それとも 閉じるためにあるのかしら 生まれくる前に 視た夢が迪りつく時は 薄闇の幕が そっと捲られた あなたに出会った あの日でしょうか 生まれゆく前に 還ったあとも夢はつづき 忘れえぬ声と 微笑みを抱いて 永遠の輪の中昇ってゆくの

Ranked #1 on the Oricon chart. BLUE BIRD by Hamasaki Ayumi(I'm a big fan of hers ^^;).

Here is the lyric:

BLUE BIRD グレーな雲が流れたら この空が泣き止んだら 君の声で目を覚ます ちょっと長めの眠りから 君はそっと見守った この背の翼 飛び立つ季節を待って 『青い空を共に行こうよ 白い砂辺を見下ろしながら 難しい話はいらない 君が笑ってくれればいい』 言葉は必要なかった 居場所はいつもここにあった 太陽が眩しいと つぶやきながら 潤んでく瞳をごまかす 『青い空を共に行こうよ どこへ辿り着くんだとしても もしも傷を負ったその時は 僕の翼を君にあげる』 そう言って君は少し泣いた 君はそっと見守った この背の翼 飛び立つ季節を待って 『青い空を共に行こうよ 白い砂辺を見下ろしながら 難しい話はいらない 君が笑ってくれればいい』 『青い空を共に行こうよ どこへ辿り着くんだとしても もしも傷を負ったその時は 僕の翼を君にあげる』 そう言って君は少し泣いた こらえきれずに僕も泣いた

The opening theme of Higurashi no Naku Koro ni(When Cicadas Cry), a really creepy anime from this season, it's one of the animes I missed on the "What's the best anime this season? " poll from last time... though I definitely rank this one as one of the top 5's(the creepiness makes it great!).

Highly recommended! ...except for the timid and those under 18... it's one of those shows that'll come back to haunt you at night...

In case I haven't mentioned this already, I'm a big Gundam fan. Unlike some of the kiddie mecha animes, most Gundam series have compelling story lines with great character development behind the fighting robots, and the complexity of the Gundam universe is just fascinatingly amazing(think of it as the anime counterpart of Star Wars or Star Trek).

The highly anticipated Gundam SEED ONA is finally out! Though I'm a bigger fan of the Universal Century calendar series, but I must say the two Gundam SEED series are very nicely done overall(and the first one was better), so I'm expecting the same from this ONA.

The story takes place at the beginning of Gundam SEED Destiny, when Junius Seven crashed onto earth. It's a side story of Gundam SEED, so it does not involve any of the original characters from Gundam SEED and Gundam SEED Destiny.

P.S. The attached song is the TV sized version of the ending theme song, Hoshi no Tobira(星の扉, or "Door of the Stars"), by Negishi Satori(根岸さとり). The single will be released in August.

SPOILER WARNING

The other song that was featured in episode 12 of the Suzumiya Haruhi TV series.

The bad guy's song from .hack//Roots.

On the side note, my finals are coming up next week. I might(or might not) have to delay the next release a bit, so I don't get slaughtered on my exams.

The ending theme of .hack//G.U. Vol 1, Yasashii Ryoute(translates to Gentle Hands), performed by Mitani Tomoyo(三谷朋世).

leingod posted this song in an earlier comment, I thought it was really nice, and I just happened to find a better quality version of it, so here it is(and the lyrics for it).

If you like it, be sure to to buy the soundtrack when it comes out in August. Yes... I'm sure you will... I have faith in you...

EDIT: OK, I uploaded an even "better" version of it. Well... the size is bigger at least, and there is no static in the background... Found quite a few different versions of it, was having some trouble deciding which one I should upload. Honestly, I like this song better than the .hack//Roots theme songs.

EDIT: updated the lyrics, re-uploaded the MP3 with a 320Kbps version I ripped myself. Oh, and I also uploaded the English version of this song.

やさしい両手 冷たい手に引き寄せられ 流れて逝く時を過ごし 遠くを見たその瞳に 何が映っているのだろう 月が照らす冷たい指に こぼれたは冷たい涙 見上げた空いつかの夢が 遠くで見つめている 暗闇に手を差し伸べて ここからはもう戻れない 気がつけば記憶の中に 閉ざされた私が見えた 信じていたいあなたが来るのを いつの日かここで巡り会うまで 感じていたい時間がとまるまで 暖かい手で私に触れて 硝子の檻に囚われていた 解けない想い傷ついたまま 戻ることない暗闇の向こう 光が射しているだろう きっとまたこぼれる光 あたたかく包んでくれる 現実から逃げようとして 大事なもの見失ってる 信じていたいあなたが来るのを いつの日かここで巡り会うまで 感じていたい時間がとまるまで 暖かい手で私に触れて 冷たい手に引き寄せられ 流れて逝く時を過ごし 遠くを見たその瞳に 何が映っているのだろう 何が映っているのだろう

This is the song from episode 13 when Shino was PKed by Tri-Edge, as per request.

The insert song from episode 14, when Haseo was yelling out Ovan's name over at the waterfall(titled 殉教者の指, it translates to "A martyr's finger"). Another song per request.

Just to let you know, I'll be delaying this week's release until the next weekend(so I'll release two episodes the next weekend, if nothing goes wrong). I have an exam coming up on Tuesday, and another one on Friday. I need to get my brain cranking...

P.S. I moved some menu items around, and put an ad on top(yah, I know it's ugly, but the click-through-rate of the ads is pathetic, I had to do something about it...), I hope no one got lost.

BGM from .hack//G.U.. From the title, I'm guessing this is the BGM of Town at the beginning.

Sounds really nice, great melody.

The opening theme of Welcome to NHK! Performed by ROUND TABLE featuring Nino, really interesting name for a band. The band was called ROUND TABLE at the beginning, then they had a guest vocalist named Nino joining in, so now it's "ROUND TABLE featuring Nino".

Wow... if this keeps up, this site is gonna turn into a podcasting site...

And here are the lyrics:

パズル 少し見上げた空　出来過ぎた日常 背を向ける度に　呟くだけ どこに行けばいいの？　そんな顔してる君と 路地裏の陰　時計の針が 止まった時間を　塗り替えて 差し延べた両手　噛み合わないパズルを 置き去りにしてた　二人出会うまで 失くしてた何か　最後のかけらを 取り戻して いつか忘れていた　遠い日の記憶 心の片隅　重ねたなら 懐かしい景色　口癖だけは　そのまま 戸惑うように　瞳を伏せて 立ち止まらないで　追いかけて 交わした言葉は　カタチに出来ないけど もどかしい気持ち　思いを伝えて 降りしきる雨と　肩を並べてく こんなふうに 風の行方なら　君が知っている　新しい始まり 差し延べた両手　噛み合わないパズルを 置き去りにしてた　二人出会うまで 失くしてた何か　最後のかけらを 取り戻して　歩き出そう

The full version of the ending of Gundam Stargazer(I posted the TV version earlier here).

Thought it's a really nice song.

Unlike most of the animes I've mentioned so far, there is nothing "weird" or "creepy" about this one. From the art style and the character design, this is obviously a shoujo manga based anime(sorry to disappoint those who are looking for mature themed animes). None the less, I thought it's a really cute and funny anime to watch.

Like any other shoujo manga, we have our cheerful, typical, and not-so-perfect female lead, whose name is Takahashi Nanami(高橋七美), and the popular, (almost) perfect male lead, Yano Motoharu(矢野元晴).

And it's the start of high school...

The art style(though they are definitely done by different artists) and storytelling is similar to that of Honey and Clover, but the atmosphere is more feminine and youthful(high school vs college after all).

And Nanami is really cute.

The attached song is the opening theme, kimi dake wo...(君だけを...) by Mi.

Nanami.

Octopus head.

A BGM from .hack//Roots, as per request.

The BGM from the .hack//G.U. prototype trailer. Another MP3 per request .

The English version of Yasahii ryoute. Nice lyrics, but for some reason, it sounds... curiously bizarre... maybe I got too used to the Japanese version...

P.S. I updated the Japanese version of Yasashii ryoute with the MP3 I ripped myself, at 320Kbps(the old one was at 192Kbps). And I fixed the Windows Media Player playback problem, now you should be able to play all the MP3 files from this site on WMP, but I still suggest you to stay away from WMP.

YASAHII RYOUTE [English ver.]

Drawn in by an unseen cold hand,
I pass even time as it flows to eternity.
As your eyes look away into the hazy distance,
what is revealed to them, I cannot see.

As the moonlight shines on my bitter cold fingers.
Frozen tears of mine begin to flow anew.
I look at the sky. That distant far off dream,
it always has me in its view.

Unafraid, I reach my hand into the darkness.
I am at the point of no return.
If I truly realize the person I am,
hidden away inside my deepest memories.

I still want to believe that you will return to me.
Until you are with me, together in this place.
I still want to feel until the end of time.
The gentle loving touch of your hands on my face.

Trapped inside this cage made of glass,
hurt feelings held captive in the cold and icy night.
From far beyond the infinite dark.
There must always be a ray of light.

I know that your eternal shining light
will embrace me in the warmth of infinity.
While trying to run from the pain of reality,
I'm losing sight of what is so important to me.

I still want to believe that you will return to me.
Until you are with me, together in this place.
I still want to feel until the end of time.
The gentle loving touch of your hands on my face.

Drawn in by an unseen cold hand,
I pass even time as it flows to eternity.
As your eyes look away into the hazy distance,
what is revealed to them, I cannot see.

What is revealed to them, I cannot see.

I'm starting to get allergic to ALI PROJECT... their songs are just so weird...

By request. From ookami the game(not okami, that's bad translation). I find the title quite interesting, it was written as "大神", which means "big god", then wolf(written as "狼") in Japanese is also pronounced as "ookami". And it just happens that the main character in the game is a wolf, and she is a god. Very cool.

The song is really nice, I really like it.

The highly anticipated ED theme of Sumomomo Momomo.

P.S. I'm gonna have to delay this week's Sumomomo Momomo release a bit(on top of my usual delay), cuz I got a bunch of projects and assignments due this week. It's approaching the end of the term, you see.
