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.

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.

( If you could only bring one thing to an abandoned island, what would you bring? )

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.
