Against ~Ushinawareta Jidai e no Hankou~
Against ~Resistance to Entering the Lost Age~
Sung by: The Hearts (Takagi Wataru as Kaido Shinobu)
Translated by: Mina-P (Email: Minako@senshigakuen.com)
Version 2.00
Note: This short little ditty is from Chouja Reideen, the new version. In this Sunrise series, Takagi Wataru plays the lead singer of the "evil" band, The Hearts. When Mako-chan and I first listened to this song, we had no idea what to expect from The Hearts. But we had heard every other member of the band sing, so we told ourselves that the one we didn't recognize during the song would be Takagi Wataru. As it turns out, Takagi-san sings the entire song and is simply amazing. If you want to hear a guy wail on an excellent song, check out Against.
Imitation world goosuto ni mekashiku sareteru
Looking for truth shinjitsu nante Mystery
Don't you?
iradachi ga Ah
senaka o tsukinukeru ima
Imitation world Blindfolded by a ghost
Looking for truth Stuff like truth's Mystery
Don't you?
The irritation Ah
Pierces through my back; Now
Against...
Against...
jidai no yokubou ni okasareru na
jidai no uragiri ni uchinomesareru na
Don't get violated by the age's desire
Don't get knocked down by the age's treachery
Show you my heart goojasu na kizuato ga tsugeru
Never give up zankoku sugiru History
Get you!
zetsubou ga Ah
mirai o daki ni kuru ima
Show you my heart The gorgeous scar tells
Never give up Too cruel History
Get you!
The despair Ah
Comes to embrace the future; Now
Against...
Against...
jidai no katasumi ni suterareru na
jidai no gensou ni oikakerareru na
Don't get thrown away into a corner of the age
Don't get chased down by the age's fantasies
Lyrics belong to Takubo Mami, taken from the The Hearts album, AYCM-591 (track 2). Not like the words make any sense if you haven't heard the song, anyway. Romanized and translated into English very badly by Mina-P, with desperately needed help, as always, by Mako-chan. Any comments or corrections can be mailed to Mina-P at Minako@senshigakuen.com.
