私の生きた証拠

At last! The full version is complete! And in a challenge I posed to myself I decided to do the translation in a manner that would have the translated lyrics fit into the tune of the song. I succeeded for the most part, except for one recurring line… But in any case this is by no means completed, so I’ll be updating it pretty soon I should imagine.

Also, chances are I won’t be providing transliterations, unless there’s popular demand. After all, there are usually transliterations at Animelyrics. However, as of 04/09/2007, the corresponding translation for this song on the Animelyrics page isn’t as good as it should be, with some lines obviously taken too literally, with many instances in which English wasn’t used as well as it should.

Enough ranting. Here goes.

According to some comments and other miscellaneous sources, the ED of episode 24 of popular anime Fate/stay night is entitled ‘君との明日’ (Kimi to no Ashita, lit. A Tomorrow with You), by Tainaka Sachi, who is credited with the two OPs of the series, as well as the ED of Saiunkoku Monogatari (彩雲国物語), Saikou no Kataomoi (最高の片想い).

The song is currently not released anywhere, even the official soundtrack. So we all have to wait patiently for it.

Based on the distinctive style of the song, I shall assume that Tainaka Sachi herself composed the song. This is a conclusion arrived at after comparison with the two coupled withs of the OP singles, 忘れかけていたのかな and 少年の夢, and 最高の片想い.

*UPDATE (SEPTEMBER 10): As of now I am still constantly refining the translation, so please comment if you find something wrong with it.

I present to you, before the CD’s actually released in stores, the translated and romanized lyrics for the new Tainaka Sachi single, Saikou no Kataomoi. Upon the addition of Kanji and refinement this will be my seventh completed translation project (I prefer to take it as a new one, despite the fact that I already translated the TV-size version, and some improvements have been made on this version from the last)

I did this based on the promo video available on youtube, which appears to be the full song. Note that some mistakes are possible; finalized translations and Kanji will be provided once I receive the official lyrics.
