自己満足でフリーダムです★

Journal of a girl born in Hong Kong, raised in Toronto, Canada. Content of this journal includes seiyuu (Ishida Akira, Kamiya Hiroshi), BL (or boy's love) and other random stuff.

Expect long posts, constant editing of those posts, incoherent Japanese (and English, apparently), random photo spams and fangirling.

Most entries are friends-locked.

Comments are screened.


F-locked from May 18, 2004.

Because I had a hard time looking for them so I suppose others may have trouble too and therefore this post :P

My second translation to share with everyone for Ishida-san's birthday celebration is the translation of the free talk in the 17th Saiyuki CD (Nothing to Lose ~Kamisama-hen~ kouhen) - the part posted here is the portion where Ishida-san speaks (around the 10:30 mark.) The audio is available to download here or at the birthday post, which I believe most of you came from to get here ^-^ My English turns weird when I translate, but I hope for those who didn't understand the free talk can get an idea :) Enjoy.

As a little celebration for our lovely seiyuu Ishida-san, I've decided share some translations I've done. The first one is the script and partial translation to the recent Gekkan Animage TV special interview on Ishida-san. I have skipped certain parts and focused on the parts where Ishida-san speaks. The translation is very rough and the script is plagued with mistakes, but I hope for those who don't know much of the Japanese language can get an idea of what was in the interview. Enjoy~ My only request is to not take my script or translations as your own, thank you.

How much do you guys usually pay for seiyuu magazines? I was told one would be around $26.14 + tax (which would come to around $30 CAD), it's pretty much triple the original Japanese price, which I can understand and all... But I'm just curious about the prices in other places of the world.

So much hiatus. Well, I'm tired of listening to the history of science (why am I in this course????) so I'll do some translating.

Yay~~~ it's almost 10, now that was the way to spend time in a lecture. Hahahahaha. I'm about to collapse from exhaustion. I slept no more than 2 hours last night and had/having 9.5 hours of class today. H E L P .

Going to put more stuff up before school starts... this is a translation from a special question session from an Animage issue featuring Ishida-san and Kojima Sachiko-san. This is probably the first translation I did of Ishida-san... which was from... just two months ago? Haha.

What should be next...

OH my goodness. If only Ishida-san had recordings like these...

Taken from one of his CDs... I have no idea what it's called, but it's a collection of confessions and all sorts of sweet talk from Koyasu Takehito. The last bonus track contains a lengthy good night message... that is...

( Koyasu Takehito counts sheep )

*__________* I'm not a huge huge Koyasu-san fan, but who can resist after listening to this!?!?!?!!!

Alike the Ishida-san trivia, this will be updated constantly as soon as I find something interesting.

I am still learning Japanese, so I cannot say these are 100% accurate. If you come across any translation mistakes, please let me know.

Finally~ I decided to put it here as well. I might as well gather all my seiyuu-related translations up here. This page will be all Ishida-san's official profile translations. I think so far I have 4 of them. I'll be updating this page after I finish translating each one. For one thing, the most recent profile is the easiest.

A short collection of some Ishida-san Trivia found on the net posted by fans on sites such as lain.gr.jp or 2ch and more, then translated by me. I can't guarantee the accuracy of these facts nor the accuracy of these translations (as I am just doing these for practice and fun). However, some are actually quoted from words Ishida-san said himself or wrote, some from magazines and some from events, so some of them are pretty believable. And please forgive my ugly English T_T

I figured I'd make this post public as I think any Ishida-san fan would be interested. If you want to use these rather poor translations elsewhere online, please contact me first. Thanks.
