Misa No Uta (Song of Misa - Death Note Theme)


MISA NO UTA - Death Note
(click here)
Ki wo tsukete kami sama wa miteru.
Kurai yomichi wa te wo tsunaide kudasai!
Hitori de tooku demo itsumo mitsukedashite kureru.
Shitteru koto wa zenba oshiete kureru.
Watashi ga oboetanakutemo,
nandodemo oshiete kureru.
Be careful, God is watching.
In a street blacked by night, please link our hands together.
Even if I'm by myself and far away, He can always come find me.
He comes to teach me everything He knows.
Even if I should no longer remember,
He will teach me over and over.
Demo zenbu wakatte shimattara dou sureba ii no?
But what should I do once I know everything?

Death Note brief introduction:
The story basically revolves around a mysterious and powerful notebook that could kill anybody whose name is written in it. This notebook came from the world of death gods, dropped it to the world of humans and allow them to take ownership of this killing material. The series centers on Light Yagami who has discovered about the notebook and his very ambitiousattempt to create a world of no evil by killing those whom he considers villains. There he met Ryuk, the shinigami (death god) owner of Light's notebook before 'twas dropped. Because of Light's judgments, he has created conflicts between several organizations and peace officers in Japan that led him to engage battle against L, his very opponent that mirrors his skills and intellectual capabilities. Both L and Light (Kira) obtain extraordinary deductive skills that made the story even more exciting.

HOWL's MOVING CASTLE

A wonderful tale of a wizard's castle which door is actually a portal into four different places. The wizard who owns this castle is Howl, and the fire demon who runs it is Calcifer. These two have been working together since Howl was young. It was told that Howl sold his soul to Calcifer, creating a strong bond , more likely a contract which can only be broken by the lady of the story Sophie. This very enriching and magical story was authored by Diana Wynne Jones and was adapted and animated by Hayao Miyazaki in 2004.

Let me share with you the original lyrics and translation of this movie's main theme:

SEKAI NO YAKUSOKU (click here)
Lyricist: TANIGAWA Shuntarou
Composer: KIMURA Yumi
Arranger: HISAISHI Joe
Vocalist: BAISHOU Chieko

namida no oku ni yuragu hohoemi wa
toki no hajime kara no sekai no yakusoku
the smile that waver inside tears
is the promise of the world since the beginning of time
ima wa hitori demo futari no kinou kara
kyou wa umare kirameku
hajimete atta hi no you ni
even if now you're alone, from the yesterday when you were two
glittering today's arisen as the day you met for the first time
omoide no uchi ni anata wa inai
soyokaze to natte hoho ni furetekuru
you are not inside memories
come as a gentle breeze to graze my cheek
komorebi no gogo no wakare no ato mo
kesshite owaranai sekai no yakusoku
even after parting in an afternoon, sunshine leaking through leaves
the promise of the world never dies
ima wa hitori demo ashita wa kagirinai
anata ga oshietekureta
yoru ni hisomu yasashisa
now you're alone, but tomorrow's limitless
you taught me the gentleness hidden in the night
omoide no uchi ni anata wa inai
seseragi no uta ni kono sora no iro ni
hana no kaori ni itsumademo ikite
you are not inside memories
you live forever into the melody of a brook,
in the colour of this sky, in the fragrance of flowers

Useful Gadgets

I found a few quite useful gadgets and had it here in my blog. One is the puzzle-riddle section which i find it very interesting and unique choices of questions are featured. Answers are available on the original site. Please click on the link and it will take you to that particular topic's forum. It really is a brain teaser!

I chose this gadget not because its difficult and its something to brag about if you find the answer. Technically, puzzles are not made to make life difficult either. It can enhance your thinking process, but most importantly it intensifies your patience and determination to resolve it. Quite a good practice ey?

Another one is the Japanese word of the day. Wonder why? Well, its in my profile. Obviously I like Japanese songs. And within this week (we'll see) i will be sharing some of my favorite Japanese Lyrics and tell you guys about some of the facts behind it. Should it be a soundtrack from an animated series, you would definitely know. As of the moment, I hope you would enjoy learning quite a few Japanese words everyday. Well it couldn't be so useful to some, but tell you what learning it is so much fun specially when you love watching anime. ^_^ "Arigatou!"

The last thing I'd like to highlight is the official you tube gadget. Technically I chose this one to be in this blog because you might want to check out some videos without browsing another tab. That's what it does basically. Well ... if it wouldn't work perfectly, please don't bite me. Later i might be sharing some articles regarding music videos and movie series. Then you can definitely make use of this you tube gadget without losing the page you are currently reading in this blog. Amazing right? LOL

The rest ... they're there to make you even happier each day! Have fun. ^_^
