Noriko Takaya Posted April 16, 2004 Posted April 16, 2004 Hey there! This is a bit out of the norm, but what the hell... I am posting a couple of images of the two Excel Saga soundtrack CD's I have and would like to know if anyone out there has an English translation of the tracks on both discs. If you know of a site which does this, please let me know, or PM me if you have these discs and can translate Japanese. Thanks a bunch!
one_klump Posted April 16, 2004 Posted April 16, 2004 I think it says "Super friggin weird anime on crack"
Noriko Takaya Posted April 16, 2004 Author Posted April 16, 2004 I was thinking more along the lines of the actual song title tracks on the CD's themselves.
gnollman Posted April 16, 2004 Posted April 16, 2004 Can you scan the backs and post that? Assuming there are track listings on them....
Noriko Takaya Posted April 16, 2004 Author Posted April 16, 2004 Okay. Here are the track listings from the booklets in each CD. Click on the address below to see a really big image. Hopefully the characters are clear enough for you to see. http://www.toponeraegunbuster.com/excel-cd-back.jpg
gnollman Posted April 17, 2004 Posted April 17, 2004 Sorry, got in late today. Here's a quick listing... I'm sure there's some puns and context things I've missed. Been a long time since I saw Excel Saga. Some translations are more literal than others.... OST 1 1. yeah, well, just being energetic doesn't have much to do with funding.... 2. mero, you said to change the flow? (not sure about this one) 3. I was thinking something like 'maybe I should dance or something...' 4. Yeah, I really should have made it. 5. the image color really has to be red! 6. I'm kinda worried. I'm pretty worried. Not, I'm seriously worried. 7. about that 'comical menchi' thing, was it really such an easy job? 8. oh sweet! did the mochi grill up too? 9. I didn't say that it would turn into such a disaster! 10. I said that it was that whole 'at home' feeling! 11. Well, crap. No use for it, guess I'll have to make it. 12. The Little Critters musical suite 13. Well, I think it sure is a wierd name.... 14. That sure was a cool tune, yup. 15. about that 'small animal usage' thing... 16. this time's top memorial tune 17. It was probably a little sticky... 18. the words in the interlude (thump! O happiness!).... just joking! 19. oh yeah, there sure is something funny about the beginning.... 20. Because I said I wanted military stuff.... 21. because I said I wanted to go off the handle in the jungle... 22. the death of the iron-girl.... 23. I know I wasn't asked to, but I went ahead and did it, so please use it 24. Memories of 30, part 1 25. Memories of 30, part 2 26. Memories of 30, part 3 27. Talk about Mission Impossible.... this one really was impossible. 28. I said I really couldn't play it! 29. love (loyal heart) 30. Menchi- Bolero of grief- So you're gonna eat me (karaoke track) (excel girls) OST 2 1. japya-aan (in a whisper...) 2. the fly in the ointment 3. i wonder if there'll be a use for it... 4. tonight, i give you... the ...ssu of time... 5. surely the drama accompaniment 6. indeed, the drama accompaniment 7. a dangerous pedophile, to be sure.... 8. Eh? what's with the cool looking guy? (nabeshin's tale) 9. sweat, dripping off.... 10. Is this a tune? 11. cold sweat, dripping off... 12. a, six pines! (ed: i must be missing some contextual thing) 13. eh? six pines? 14. Go go menchi! go straight forth! 15. good tune 16. Taishou romance 17. love catch 18. some sort of weather (ed: whether?) (stopping just before the mountain range... source material all refreshed) 19. Star Wars 20. Love hena - Touch 21. Love hena - Opening 22. Love hena - theme 23. Love hena - bad ending 24. Try howling lightly 25. Try howling mournfully 26. vulgarity 27. fall back, youth! 28. The beginning of the start of the year 29. sub title 30. Menchi- Bolero of grief- So you're gonna eat me (narrated practice karaoke track... happy inflation) (excel girls)
