[TJ] 2009.12.02 - Noudouteki Sanpunkan (CD) [Single]

Which is clearly the apple-coloured butterfly that emerges from that dried up shell. ^______________________^

[Superficial Fan]

Can someone point me to where I can currently stream the new B-side? The youtube video was gone when I went back to it and I found it on an imeem page last night but then I couldn't seem to get back to the same site again.

Picked up the single yesterday in Tower Fukuoka and received the code to apply for tickets. As my Japanese is pretty bad, I didn't understand the URL to make the application. Does anyone have this?

Thanks!

Agreed; I think the last time I listened to BB.Queen & Karada was when I got the single in the mail, sort of scared that might happen here to. Might be song that grows on me, the jury's out.

On a slightly off-topic note, the kanji for 我慢 distracts me 'cause my brain is so soaked in Chinese studies I just read the Mandarin pronounciation "wo man" (I'm slow).

I think 3min will be my new laundry room song. Somehow I manage to only find available spots on Sundays 7-10AM which means I stumble down the steep stairs hungover, half-asleep, desperately needing a dance-inducing pick-me-up.

You should be able to figure it out from there. This time I had a Japanese friend sitting next to me so it took about 2 minutes, but I usually slowly and laboriously "translate" my way through it by copy and pasting the relevant chunks of Japanese. You will have to register for Ticket Pia as well, I think, if you have not already.

This site gives me much less of a headache than "translation" software.

You'll probably still get a headache. Try to have somebody help you.

easiest way to go is to use firefox and download rikaichan software. when it is enabled in your browser any japanese text you scroll over will automatically highlight and a translation will pop up for phrases/words/kanji on the side. with a basic understanding of grammar/particle/sentence structure and the rikaichan tool for reading/translation purposes, you can pretty much solve any news article/website without too much trouble.

Thank you, didn't know about that. I keep trying Firefox out, and never warm up to it, but I suppose it is inevitable I will switch for this and other reasons.

No wonder she smacked him with the bouquet

I had fun annoying my sensei by speaking Kansai-ben in class. It sounds so much more playful with the differently stressed syllables.

Overall I like the single. I like the A-side more than the B-side and feel it bodes well for the next album. It's a much better kick off than OSCA was.

I can't wait to see Gaman live...I hope Ringo's voice comes through at Countdown Japan ;_;
