Nano.Ripe - Esoragoto

Sanka Rea, kawaii desho ne? =w=b
Well this is Nano.Ripe's song again! This time titled ESORAGOTO. This one used as the opening of an anime called SANKAREA. I've watch 6 episodes and I kinda like it. Well you have to watch it to understand the story (and cz I don't have the mood to write about the story lol). And ESORAGOTO is another awesome song from Nano.Ripe so you have to hear it! Well that's all I want to say.. Have a nice day people! :3


ROMAJI


Nemurenai yoru ni kiita monogatari ga esoragoto da to shitara

Eien wo shiru yori kairaku wo motomete ima wo kuyande shimau no wa
Kokoro no fukaku ni sumitsuita kage kara nigeru tame da to shitara

Sore demo atashi wa atashi wo aishite irareru nara

Hanbun ni wareta taiyou ga asa wo tsurete kite yami ni nareta shinkei wo jiwari shigeki suru
Okiwasureta nounai wa aete sono mama de shinario no kieta monogatari da

Jiyuu ni jiyuu ni kaji wo totte motto takaku e maiagatte

Kimetsuketa kotae no uragawa de naiteru ano ko no koe wa kikoenai
Kanjou nante dareka no sabita monosashi de hakaru mono de wa nai darou

Dare no tame ja naku atashi wa atashi ga ima wo warau tame ni kizu wo kakushiteru
Sukoshi kareta koe de esoragoto wo utau ima koko ni aru mono ga subete da

Hanbun ni wareta taiyou de mata kyou ga hajimaru monogatari no tsudzuki wa kono te no naka
Aisareru koto ga ketsumatsu ja nai kara mitasareru dake ja tarinai deshou

Jiyuu ni jiyuu ni kaji wo totte motto tooku e tori ni natte
Jiyuu ni jiyuu ni kaji wo totte motto takaku e hoshi ni natte
 





TRANSLATION


What if the story that I heard on that sleepless night is all just an impossible fantasy?

Rather than knowing eternity, I seek pleasure and lament over the present.
Maybe I do that to run away from the shadows that have settled deep inside my heart.

Even so, if I’ll be able to come to love who I am…

The sun, broken in half, brings the morning with it and gradually stimulates my senses that have grown used to the dark.
The misplaced contents of my brain are a story whose scenario has disappeared, and I’ll just leave things that way.

Freely, freely, I’ll take the helm and soar up to greater heights.

The voice of that child who’s crying on the other side of the chosen answer won’t be heard.
Emotion isn’t something you can measure with someone’s rusted ruler, after all.

For the sake of myself and no one else, I’ll hide my wounds so that I can smile at today.
With my slightly strained voice, I’ll sing out the fantasy. The things that are here right now are everything to me.

With the coming of sun, broken in half, the day begins again. What comes next in the story lies right here in my hands,
Because just being loved isn’t the ending – it’s not enough just be satisfied.

Freely, freely, I’ll take the helm; soaring further out, I’ll become a bird.
Freely, freely, I’ll take the helm; soaring higher up, I’ll become a star.

Androgyny

Androgyny. Well, I have heard of this word too much lately that I really curious now about it. That's why I made this post, to share about this knowledge for those who also doesn't know about it. So what is androgyny? Is it an app for android? Or is it a new kind of robotic design? Lol actually it is not even close with that. So, what is it?

According to the definition, androgyny means "showing characteristics of both sexes bisexuality, hermaphroditism" or "Being neither distinguishably masculine nor feminine, as in dress, appearance, or behavior.".

And according to wikipedia:
"Androgyny is a term derived from the Greek words ανήρ, stem ανδρ- (anér, andr-, meaning man) and γυνή (gyné, meaning woman), referring to the combination of masculine and feminine characteristics. This may be as in fashionsexual identity, or sexual lifestyle, or it may refer to biologically inter-sexed physicality, especially with regards to plant and human sexuality."

So based on both resource, I can conclude that androgyny is  a state when a person looks like a man and woman at the same time, and we can't decide which gender they are in such a glimpse look. They are in the middle between man and women. But why? I watch about it a few days ago and actually there are a lots of case about it all over the world. I believe those k-pop and j-pop boys the girls love are also androgyny people. Why? Let me explain..

Some of them (k-pop and j-pop stars) being loved because their faces are lovely just like cute girls. Their real gender is man right? But they mostly look and (maybe) act like girls. Some of them even crossdressing as a girl. But gah I can't really give a good example for this case. But take a look at pictures below, can you guess their  REAL gender?:


So how was it? And those are called "Androgyny". Sometimes we can't really tell what is their real gender at all because they are really into their opposite gender. So what do you think? Is it cool or uncool after you know more about it? Well don't think based on one side, think from other sides also. Think, "how they do it?" or "why people want to be like that?".

Well I think that is all about Androgyny from me. For more details, you can see it on wikipedia or google it for more further information. However, androgyneous people also have the same rights to live and have a job like other people does. They still the part of the society after all. And that's it! I'm out from this post. Have a nice weekend people, have a great day! :)

[REVIEW] Spirited Away



Well I got this movie from my friend and that was a great two hours. That's why I wanna write the review here =w=b

Spirited Away is one of Ghibli's awesome movies. Sprited Away begin with a girl named Chihiro when she and her family are moving to a new village. But the movie is not about her new village, really. The problem appear when their car stopped at a mysterious building, Chihiro's parents thought that place was an old theme park. But actually it is not as it looks like..

Chihiro's parents then transform into huge pigs and then Chihiro met a boy named Haku. Haku told Chihiro to find a job so she won't be a pig like her parents. After the struggle, she work at the bath house or I love to call it onsen and the head of the onsen give a new name for her, Sen. In that onsen she meets new people (or creatures) and struggle to solve the problem before she finally can save her parents. Can she save her parents? And who is Haku? You should watch the movie until the end to know the ending XD

Cute little black creatures

For me, this was an inspiring movie. And I also learn a little new Japanese words for my vocabulary. This movie suits all age so it is good for the children to also watch this movie. This movie also tells about how to get what we want with hard work. Of course you can't just sit down and wait until someone saves your parents right?

After this movie, I would love to watch another Ghibli's movie cz this is my first Ghibli movie teehee~ Beside I have a long long holiday to spend and now I haven't decide what to do. You should watch this movie if you haven't and you will feel the fantasy when meeting the youkai XD

I think that is all I can say, Chihiro and Haku out from this post. Have a nice day people!

Chihiro and Haku
