[UtaMacross] d Shootin' Star b - Ranka & Sheryl [Full Song + 4K60fps]

[@Peppermint2]

Hey western Macross fandom! Can we agree to start titling this song "d Shootin' Star b" and not "d Shudista b"? :) I believe this is a misspelling, here's why: -The actual song lyrics has "shooting star", in English, in it. Music videos for the song have a star motif. "Shudista" is not a real word in any language. Clearly, the title must be referencing "shooting star". -Then why is it spelled weirdly? The katakana for shooting star is usually "シューティングスター" or "shuutingusutaa". The katakana in the song title is "シュディスタ" or "shudisuta". I believe this is an artistic choice to spell it differently with katakana, perhaps to give it a more natural pronunciation, and NOT an attempt to make up a new word. This is where the misspelling must have originated. English word -> Japanese with a funny spelling -> Japanese funny spelling in latin aphabet. I think we should just revert it back to the English word it was meant to be! -My theory is that someone not familiar with Japanese or English originally titled the song "shudista" as it was uploaded online. With no official English spelling available, people just stuck with what they saw first. Merch of the blu-ray box and figures are being marketed with "shudista" on English websites, but this is likely just companies trying to decipher the title on their own. Random companies =/= the songwriter who chose the title. -Finally, I'd like to point out that this song is indeed titled "d Shootin' Star b" on streaming services like Spotify, which is currently the most official source I could find with an English title (using the latin alphabet)! Let me know if you know of a better official source that writes the song title as "d Shudista b". If you ask me, an ideal source would be the title printed in English in official merch. Or alternatively a statement from the song writer themselves, clarifying the issue ahah. And just to be clear, I am not attempting to change the title in Japanese. I am only complaining about translations/conversions of the title into English/latin alphabet.

[@Exin]

I was literally thinking about this last week and I think you are correct

[@SugaredEdits]

Is this an argument people have?? It’s shooting star!! 😓

@@SugaredEdits believe it or not I had a whole argument in a certain discord server 🤣

2:49 The transition to the alternate outfit when Ranka sang "Shooting Star" was so clean ❤

I started listening to Macross again a while ago, and it's the best to post an MV like this

新作嬉しいです！！ありがとう！！

[@jkreincarnation]

Damn, we can only hope Macross gets a "good" game again soon with it seemingly getting way more push internationally. Thanks peppermint!

[@Sephiroth144]

I mean, I'm still happy Shooting Insight released internationally; sure, a schmup isn't my first choice, but it is fun if you like them

[@kazagake1]

I've been restricted from titling the url. May'n suggested this when titling the song, and it is correct with "dシュディスタ b” ”シュディスタ” is definitely taken from ”shooting star”

[@Peppermint2]

Oh that's so interesting! Do you remember where she said this? I'd love to hear it myself too

[@kazagake1]

@@Peppermint2 Hi Peppermint. I can't post the URL on KZbin, so I will let you know via X. It is from May'n's official blog.

演出が細かくて良ゲーでしたね。 自分的には課金しなくてもある程度楽しめましたし、かなり良かったのですが、なぜサ終してしまったのか...

This video edit was not good. The dance moves did not fit at all.
