Description The sound of the clocktower's gears
Is proof that the girl is living
This second hand doesn't stop
It's "my" duty to watch over it

She once impersonated her master's greed
Will she also have sinned some day?
When she destroyed herself
How could she not have noticed sooner?

The marks of the ugly burns still remain on half of the girl's body
And cut the memories of those two

Today is again packed with confusion
The pitiful visitors who know nothing
Will soon be in settled
In "the master of the graveyard's" stomach

Pretending to be the lead part of that "girl"
Who always chose the selfish path
It seemed the "fragment" was lost
Though a little of it was kept in her expression

Just before his death, the lonely man created
A small theater in the heart of the forest
Forget that time when the sound began
The clockwork's lullaby

"Bloodstained scissors" "a purple sword"
Waiting on the days they've yet to remember
When they're told that all of the songs
Seem to form a Utopia

Stopping the clock
Means the end of the girl
We tarnished the rusty gears
They don't have much time left

Just before his death, the lonely man created
A small theater in the heart of the forest
He most loved that the curator was served
"The clockwork's doll"

Resolution is decided
On the left side of my chest for my own sake
I placed my hand and softly inserted it deep inside...

-Superbia- (Pride)
-Gula- (Gluttony)
-Invidia- (Envy)
-Luxuria- (Lust)
-Avaritia- (Greed)
-Acedia- (Sloth)
-Ira- (Wrath)

-Graveyard Hellish gard-
-Court Heavenly gard-

My mainspring and the gears of the clocktower
Resonate and begin a new story
If the clock's hand were to stop
My job is to continute its rotation

Oh yeah! Though I couldn't say I'm a hardcore fan x'D I did start the visual novel awhile ago but haven't gotten very far in it
However I did watch the anime... the troll-tastic anime...

I like Higurashi a lot better, but Umineko is still great, at least for the ride But yeah I have heard the VN is a lot different/better, so I do intend to finish it eventually

RusariJubakuno In reply to animerocks4 [2012-07-20 18:49:35 +0000 UTC]

I'm glad to hear that. Umineko's visual novels are sadly anything but mainstream, so I really am happy to meet people who've heard of them. As one who has read the whole thing, I can appreciate that it was indeed a beautiful piece of work.
However, despite this, I too prefer Higurashi over Umineko. Can't really tell why.

animerocks4 In reply to RusariJubakuno [2012-07-22 19:44:56 +0000 UTC]

Hehe, I bet so! It's always nice to find other people that know of and appreciate the obscure stuff you're fond of

Well like I said, I haven't read all of the VN for Umineko, but when it comes to the anime, I liked Higurashi more probably because it had a good, non-trolltastic ending x'D That's just me though.

RusariJubakuno In reply to animerocks4 [2012-07-23 08:20:51 +0000 UTC]

I see. As for me... I think I prefer Higurashi because it had a more intimate atmosphere, and most of the characters were closer to my age group than the characters in Umineko.
When you have the time, I'd like to recommend you to read 07th Expansion's other VN's as well, they are each beautiful in their own way. I'm talking here about Higanbana, and Rose Guns Days. (the latter hasn't come out yet, actually)

Yeah. I haven't watched it yet myself though; I prefer Judgment. It's really catchy.

Kaito has Judgement of Corruption, Miku is Gift from the Princess who brought Sleep. The translation is good. Also, Mothy is making nearly every song he created into a chronology. It's amazing. You can find more info if you search Akuno-P on Vocaloid's Wikia. He's already written a book on Story of Evil for Rin and Len, and it's being translated to English. Here's what is out already: [link]

Again, didn't know Miku's Sloth song was released! *goes to find it*

Yeah, I love reading up on Akuno-P's stuff~ the guy's a freakin' genius!

Thanks~!

naruhinaforeva In reply to animerocks4 [2011-08-24 03:59:32 +0000 UTC]

Fuck. Yes. I'm trying to write out his stories. I've read everything. They also have more translations for HC that you could use. I have the whole chronology on my MP3. I'm in the process of memorizing them all. So far, I know Abandonment on a Moonlit Night, Chrono Story, Evil Food Eater Conchita, Daughter of Evil, Servant of Evil, Message of Regret, The Tailor Shop on Enbizaki, Clockwork Lullaby/Spring-Powered Lullaby, Re_Birthday, and Heartbeat Clocktower by heart in both languages. Not much.

I'm pretty good on the Japanese of most of his songs since I listen to them and look at lyrics so much~ and my more favorable ones I mostly know the translation for. Re_birthday is by far my specialty though; I know that one inside and out!

dragonetra59 [2011-01-12 03:21:32 +0000 UTC]

the Hellish Yard is the Graveyard, associated with Meiko because of her song "Master of the Graveyard". The Heavenly Yard is the Court, associated with Kaito because his song of greed is about a judge. both heavenly and hellish are mentioned elsewhere (i.e. Heavenly Yard is Mothy's blog and is seen in Venomania) but the main interpretation is that they go hand in hand with Meiko and Kaito's songs, not Len and Rin's.

and Kaito's full song, not just the preview, wil be out soon! yay!! Judgement of Corruption XD

... u might already know all of this though... =_='

animerocks4 In reply to dragonetra59 [2011-01-12 06:23:14 +0000 UTC]

No, I didn't know any of that actually! Thank you for the clarification!

And I didn't even know the preview for his song was out!! Gosh I'm behind in Vocaloid news these days x'D
Hehe better wait to listen to it though until the full version is out. I'd die of anticipation

This is a really good translation! Would you mind doing mothy's song Master of the Graveyard (Graveyard Party)? I haven't been able to find any translation for it whatsoever.

Really? Thanks!

Well, I kinda doubt I could do a good job with it unless I'm able to find as much help as I did on this one
Plus I can't even find the song! could you link me to it so I can look into it?

Mmm, cool song, but I can't even find the romanji for it!
If you could find the romanji/kanji for it, that'd be awesome! Then I may have some chance at translating it for you
(But it's pretty doubtful, I'm afraid sorry I'm not better at this!)

MinnieAmos In reply to animerocks4 [2010-09-22 01:06:32 +0000 UTC]

I will try my hardest to find romanji. There is hardly any info whatsoever on this song, but it can eventually be done.

thanks for the explanation but im also wondering, why does miku represent sloth in moonlit bear? i didnt think the song was about that.

animerocks4 In reply to 42510611 [2010-06-21 02:58:09 +0000 UTC]

It probably actually doesn't. I typed that in a hyper frenzy But I've looked into it more and most people say that he's probably going to actually make the other songs later.

Thanks for reminding me, I need to edit that...
