This is an Instagram live with Marina Horiuchi and Yunano Notsu. I used Whisper AI to do the translation and looked over it myself but it might not be perfect.
Hello Again! This video is wonderful. You probably know, but the frequently used word 懐かしい “Natsukashii” is usually translated as “Nostalgic”, although it’s not a perfect translation. In this video it was translated as “I miss it” and “I missed you”, which gives a slightly different impression. Probably Nostalgic is closer? This video was translated with AI, wheras the Marina Shirai instalive I pointed out was translated by a person. But this translation is surprisingly good, much better than YT Autocaptions. I thought Marina and Yunano had remained close, and they always seemed to have a connection, but in this video Yunano said Marina hasn’t texted her since 2020. But Marina has been insanely busy since 2020, she may not have much time for friends outside of “talk events”. But she has truly remained close with Hana, and they did a talk event and trip a month ago. I recommend looking up all of their tweets (Hana’s as well as Marina’s) from February 25 to March 4, they said adorable things back and forth, using the hashtag #ほりたぐうさぎ, and there are additional photos on their instagram. At one point Marina said, "I have peace of mind because Tagupi accepts me a lot.” The best thing was Hana tweeting Marina’s photos of her, with the comment "Horiuchi's Rumoured Oblique Photo Studio". Marina replied "Welcome to Oblique Photo Studio". You need to see those photos, they’re diagonal, disorenting, full of character, and quite good. Fans said that the photos are diagonal because of Marina’s head tilt. Marina also tweeted a video of Hana on a swing, also diagonal, and wrote, "The rumoured swing girl Tagupi.” Hana explained the video, "I get drunk on swings. I was in a hurry to get off." In May they will appear in a stage play together, called "A Place Further Than The Universe". btw, Marina tweeted a diagonal photo of a tulip, with the pun こんにチューリップ "Konnichūrippu" “Konnichiwa + chūrippu” “Hello Tulip”. On April 30th, Marina is doing "25years Birthday event Fantasy&Rockっす!!" The afternoon and evening shows are going to be completely different, with a Fantasy theme and a Rock theme. Her merchandise shows her outfits for the two different modes ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rs85jz6F7_M.html It’s funny when she says “IroIroIroIro!” near the beginning of that vid. I hope she records the concert this time, it’s sad she didn’t record her “1st Live” in 2022. If you haven’t seen it, here is Marina performing Welcome to Nanoland live at the end of 2020, with no audience ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-y2pY_6SUYE8.html Back to the Instalive, they mention Saku Saku episodes which Marina and Yunano did together. I mentioned Saku Saku to you previously. Marina Yunano did the two final SG episodes, which were incredible, a DIY episode and a Songwriting episode. btw, at 17m25s, “Saku Saku Natsukashii” got translated as “I miss the crunch”. at 28m15 Yunano mentions The Four and how they encouraged everyone to speak their minds, and Yunano said she benefited from that. At 29m I think Yunano was talking about the time Marina Raura filled in for Moa Yui at TIF 2014 (after Marina Raura had graduated). At 35m I think they say Nene put food in her SG jacket pocket, LOL. Yunano says she watched Marina’s previous instalive, which would have been the one with YuikaShima MikaKanai and another person. Her comment about Marina’s mannerisms was probably related to that Instalive. Around 38m, it’s funny that Yunano unconsciously imitated Marina during SG, and her mother told her that it’s not cute when Yunano does it, so Marina said “Kibishina Yunanomama”. After 45m, when Yunano encourages the audience to see Marina’s 1st Live, Marina says “Koubaibu”, SG’s purchasing club (Yunano and Shirai). More Marina stuff: I previously linked Marina’s Instalive with Shirai from the channel zzzzzzzzzz. If you find that person’s channel on Dmotion (abbreviated site name), they posted Marina’s Tower Records Acoustic Live from 2021, where she performed 5 Nano Story songs, with co-writer Yui Niitsu on keyboard. On Dmotion you can also find a fan translation of her 100 Questions video by searching “100 Q&A Marina”. Here is a great fan tribute to Marina. it includes footage from her performance as a Violin Fairy in a 2010 Musical, which is the basis of the 2nd song on Nano Story. That song uses the memory of the Violin Fairy to cheer herself up ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--x7s2BdWdCg.html Here is Marina’s other quartet “No Princess”, it’s fun to see her perform as a Typical Idol, LOL. She made an anime movie with that group but I’m not sure if it’s any good ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PW2BJMgptUs.html Well speaking of Quartets and Nostalgia, in 2014 Marina was in the quartet Maboroshi Love with Hinata YuikaShima MikaKanai. A fan took their nostalgic song Kinenbi Noto, which is about a note from the past, and played it overtop a video of them talking in a shaved ice cafe, creating one of the most nostalgic things I’ve ever seen ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-z2Di8iF8O5k.html This video hits me particularly hard when I think about the struggles Marina has had in her life. At that moment in time she was happy and at ease with her friends, and they made a great song together.
@@AlexFromSpace Thank you so much for all of this info! I will work on getting the subtitles updated in the next couple of days (next time I won't burn them into the video as well but i can at least update the pop up subtitles) I'm glad you explained about "natsukashii" because that has popped up in some Ganbare Fresh episodes I have translated and I wasn't sure if I should be using nostalgic or not.
Ah, I get to see another SG member! Marina does a wonderful job at this. First it was Ooga (baby chan) and now Notsu! Who will be next? I hope it's Nenedon.
She was so excited to talk to her friend again. very cool. I wonder did any of the members get to go to see Babymetals last performance. Did they know Momoko was going to be the new member?
Nene and Raura attended one of the January Babymetal concerts and posted photos together. They also went to see Marina's "1st Live" in 2022 Feb in a small venue, and Hana Mirena MaayaAsou were also there. Raura tweeted that the concert was full of Marina's essence and, "For the memorable 1st Live, I'm glad I was able to go with Nene." There's a Natalie article with great Marina quotes from the event, the types of things that only Marina would say, like telling the audience they're shining like dreams and stars. Her next live is April 30, and the afternoon and evening shows will have completely different styles of "Fantasy" vs "Rock". btw, personally I think there are a lot of "background meanings" about SG in Babymetal's videos and lyrics from the last year, but it's just my opinion. As for who knows what, I would bet that Ayami knows everything.
@@AlexFromSpace Something I noticed: F. Hero also has a song or feature in a song called: mirror mirror. Just like Sakura Gakuin Newspaper club has: Brand New Day. 🙂
