"WELCOME TO MY RED ROOM" OH MY GOD SUCH A BIG BRAIN TRANSLATION. I'M ON MY KNEES, YOU DROPPED A CROWN, MY QUEEN

[@c4p5l0ck2]

couls you explain it please?? im not that good at english...

[@rpcsa8]

@@c4p5l0ck2 I’m going to go on a tangent, you don’t need to read all of this… (Also your english is great! Hopefully this explanation/tangent helps). In the original Japanese lyrics - according to Mikeneko Holmes and Eye, the English translators who you can find on Chogukasei’s cover of PINK - it literally translates to: _A smiling mania_ _In high spirits, with a SAW_ _That satisfied face, I’m gonna punish you_ In Micchi’s English lyrics she instead uses: _Madness, craving more_ _Revving up my SAW_ _I’ll smirk for you_ _Welcome to my red room_ This is an incredibley clever way of translating the original lyrics as while they are much more catchy, they - most importantly, for me personally - stay true to the original meaning! I’ll break it down… _•”A smiling mania”_ + _”Madness, craving more”_ The singer is feeling mania, an emotion almost akin to insanity but with a much more happy feeling, so it makes sense why Micchi described it as “madness.” The “craving more” bit makes sense aswell, Micchi uses the original meaning in the Japanese lyrics for inspiration! In the Japanese lyrics it feels like you’re listening to the singer sink deeper into their anger and desires. So while it may not be same, it still works in helping the song deliver the same message! So clever! _•”In high spirits, with a SAW”_ + _”Revving up my SAW”_ The singer havehas a saw, they revv up the saw, they have a saw. Though Micchi does omit the detail where the singer says they are happy in this line, same as the previous line, “Madness, craving more” hm… _•”I’ll smirk for you”_ While it may seem Micchi has omitted a small but important detail to the singer’s personality in the two previous, she doesn’t actually! Instead making a new line completely dedicated to the “happy feeling.” It helps with the long melody that relies on alot of syllables, and it makes for a nice reveal. So instead of thinking, “Oh this person’s angry and insane” that final line tells you instead, “No, they are actually happy… And also insane.” Micchi made it work! She kept the original meaning and made the lyrics more catchy and fit the melody better with more syllables! _•”That satisfied face, I’m gonna punish you”_ + _”Welcome to my red room”_ “The Red Room” is an internet myth where a person opens a file with a warning that says not to open it, but the person does anyway. They are punished for this mistake by being murdered until their rooms is stained red with their blood. Fitting for an angry song about a person being happy they finally get justice after all their misery. The red room can also just be seen as a threat, inviting someone to a “Red Room” can mean “I’ll kill you” in English, since blood is associated with red. Put this with the context of Micchi’s other lyrics, and the line “I’ll lay down the law” - in English means, “I’ll punish you” - the original meaning once again is retained and not sacrificed :)!

[@solstice_soda701]

@@c4p5l0ck2 a "red room" is a reference to a thing on the dark web. Basically a video or stream of someone killing another person or "painting the room red"

[@boneenthusiast8530]

​@@rpcsa8 the phrase "red room" is also a reference to the shining, where (spoilers kinda) the son writes "redrum" (which looks and sounds like red room) in red letters on their bathroom door, prophesizing of the future violence that'll happen in that room. His mother sees this in a mirror and of course it spells "murder" backwards. It's a pop culture reference in more ways than one!

[@rpcsa8]

@@boneenthusiast8530 I forgot about that one! Thank you so much for including it, my favourite use of “Red Room” out of all the others, heh.

[@ireanleil]

Oml you're telling me you wrote/translated the lyrics, sang *and* did the illust for this? The SKILL I can't-- I was just looking for covers for this song and this is definitely one of my new favorites! Thank you so much for all of your hard work! :)

[@solstice_soda701]

I actually love when English cover keep some of the words harder to translate in Japanese

[@andrewnguyen1117]

That’s what I like to do as well when translating. Specifically words that are suppose to resemble sounds/motions or a specific saying only in Japanese

[@fantasparklezz]

I LOVE THE "CMON LET THE CREDITS ROLL" ITS SO BEAUTIFUL

[@lostinacatsmouth8389]

Wow wow wow, I love this cover! I was never expecting to find one so awesome, thank you so much! For anyone who's curious, here's the definition of the japanese in the chorus. 残念! 罰点! あっかんべ! is 'zannen! batten! akanbe!' in romaji, and it means something along the lines of 'dissapointing! incorrect! mocking expression' in english. Specifically, batten refers to an incorrect mark, on a test or something, and akanbe refers to the taunting expression when someone pulls on the skin under their eye to expose pink and smirks. If I were looking for english translyrics, I would use something like 'Let down! Failure! Taunting face!'. And for 感嘆, 満タン! アンアンアン!, it's 'kantan! mantan! an'an'an!' in romaji. In english, it means 'admiration! full gas tank! ah, ah, ah!'. If you're looking for translyrics, the best I can give you is 'Respect! Full tank! Ah, ah, ah!' All of this is from google and I'm not a native speaker, just someone who's willing to put in a lot of research into meaningless things, so sorry for any mistakes. Again, thank you to the artist for the cover! Edit: Haha, I totally missed one part in the last chorus. It says '観念! 断念! あっかんべ!', which is 'kannen! dannen! akanbe!' in romaji. It means, 'resignation! giving up! taunting face!' in english. For translyrics i would put, 'Enough! Gave up! Taunting face!" or something :).

[@heartfunk2429]

I think for the first set of kanji I'd put "Let down! Dumb clown! Taunting face!" and for the second set of kanji I'd put "Head up! Filled up! Taunting face!"and the third set honestly sounds perfect. (in the way they were listed here) I was trying to think up of a replacement for "taunting face" but all I could think up was "tongue out face" and that doesn't sound very good.

[@juuniimoo7949]

​@@heartfunk2429 sneer or jeer would work probably? those are commonly taunting expressions

[@イッヌ-y7f]

「残念 ばってん あっかんべ」を日本語で歌ってくれるのも嬉しいし、何より歌い方がかっこいい！好き！🥰

​@@NattyLovesDimXMrLactually the song is most likely about the victim getting revenge on the abuser So uhmm.. idk

[@NattyLovesDimXMrL]

@@TheXMLPCFile Still. In short, this character of her’s is a typical slasher that goes to bars. When a drunk person says or does something, I guess the word is bad, just generally, she takes them home and Redrooms them. My sister told me in a bit of detail how her character offed a person who revealed that they liked children a little too much.

main translations in the song that where left japanese would be (all from google translate sorry if stuff is wrong) : "Too bad! Penalty points! Akanbe! It’s in pieces scattered ‘cross the floor" and later at the end it would be: "残念! 罰点! あっかんべ! (Too bad! Penalty points! Akanbe!) I can’t fight against it anymore 観念! 断念! あっかんべ! (Ideas! Give up! Akanbe!) I’ve been corrupted down to my core 感嘆, 満タン! アンアンアン! (Exclamation, full! An-an-an! ) My minds broken and I can’t restore 残念! 罰点! あっかんべ! (Too bad! Penalty points! Akanbe!) It’s in pieces scattered ‘cross the floor It’s in pieces scattered ‘cross the floor " and Akanbe! probably a name is my guess or some saying (nothing was rly found on google translate 4 it)

[@NATAM1A]

Akanbe : あかんべ A Japanese facial gesture, usually considered childish. It consists of pulling down one lower eyelid to show the red inside, while sticking out the tongue. It is sometimes accompanied by the sound べえだ (beeda, pronounced "behhh-dah").
