Phoenix Maiika I thought the song was called Memories of You Spoiler alert Which mean people memories of being with the player after his death And it does make me cry
@@phoenixmaiika yeah, I mean weird but not in bad way, because I think the song is a recollection about the protagonist, right? And it seems to be from Aigis' POV. Whereas Fuuka and Junpei's songs are about themselves from their POV
Everything in this play made me tear up TT^TT I got really emotional when Sakuya said he's got no reason to die or live, and when they all sing Kimi no Kioku :"""") thank you for bringing all this emotion to us! 😭
"Ore ni wa.. nanimo nai kara.." is one of my favorite lines from this play 🥺🥺 like I wrote above, Aoi Shouta-kun's line delivery in this play is a masterpiece 💕💕 I also love the part where Junpei said they're all going home together 🥺
@@phoenixmaiika yes! That's the part when I started tearing up 😭 all hail Aoi Shota 😭 👏 I thought it's cool when Junpei said that, he finally could push aside his ego to genuinely help Sakuya 👏
@@tuturuu5415 but then as Sakuya's friends cry out to him to stop pushing himself so hard, cause he's gonna die, he goes and hits them with his "doudemo ii" 😂 😂 😂
I really appreciate the time, energy and effort you put into this. I’m currently watching through all of your videos and i’m havin a blast! and it’s all thanks to you. So Thank You Phoenix!!!
Thank you so much for translating this gem of a musical 😭 Aoi Shouta sounded like he was about to burst into tears during that last part and honestly so was I😭 that was beautiful
This is pretty much the best musical adaption from the Persona games so far. I don't why, this just feels so pitch perfect in tone, music and feel. Not that the others are bad, far from it. This one is just SO good! :)
Thank you very much! I love this stage a lot but sadly I can only guess the scnene based on my game experience. Now I finally understand what they say. Again, thank you and love you all
Thank you so much for your hard work! I loved watching this stageplay and you did an awesome job at translating it ♥ I'll come back to watch more of it because that was incredible!
I just finished watching this! I absolutely love it, thank you so much for translating this! I would love it if you could translate the rest of her Persona 3 musicals! 😊
Thank you SO much for subbing this,, ive only consumed p3wm for almost a year to date and its so wonderful to have the entire story as opposed to going off of gameplay context. You did such an amazing job and I cant wait for whenever you can get the chance to work on the next production ;_; Is there anywhere where we can donate to support your work ?
Thank you so much for your kind comment! I'm really happy I could share this musical with everyone & that everyone enjoys it so much :D Yeah, you can. Maybe I'll start a Patreon one day, when I have more fans, but for now you can support me by buying me a coffee here: ko-fi.com/phoenixmaiika
Thank you soooo much for these... I gotta drop something into your kofi... I’m so spoiled by being a fan of sera myu which always gets fan subs, I’ll be watching the first part of Koto’s probably over the weekend but seriously thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Bring back many memories.... Tbh the fighting scene just like what i do when i was a kid 😂 except this one more more organized 😂 but the other are really good, especially Fuuka hehe.
Thanks for the comment and sub! I'm glad you enjoyed this translation 💕 it really puts a big smile on my face that people watch and enjoy my content :D stay tuned for FeMC version!!
@@phoenixmaiika I turned post notifications on, but it didn't send the email to my sub box. Kinda odd, but I'm still glad I decided to check it out just in case I missed it.
@@phoenixmaiika I feel like now I know why that pause in time was so significant to Sakuya. It showed him everyone's motivations for fighting the Shadows and really made him reconsider his own response of not caring about the things that happen around him. I think this is why I like P3WM compared to the regular game. MC already has a set personality (unlike silent protagonist) but goes through character development thanks to the other main characters.
@@james.ken_dama167 I feel like also in the game you don't really experience the "I don't care about anything & anyone" MC, cause you play as him and naturally you project yourself onto him + you don't want to screw up Social Links, cause there's only so many days of gameplay (& you simply like these characters xD), so you don't pick the "I don't care" options, whereas in P3WM and in anime movies they really could put his "dou demo ii" personality to the front :)
Thanks a lot for the great translation. I will make sure to leave something for your big effort on ko-fi a bit later. The main area you could improve imo is the visual quality: The low resolution (and also low bitrate, or was that just upscaling artefacts?) made it very blurry and blocky and it was sometimes a bit hard to see what exactly happened. Reading subtitles costs concentration which I couldn't spend on looking at the image more closely. I don't know the quality of the source material but I recommend rendering in the same resolution and with a comparable bitrate. And if it really had such a low resolution, then doubling/trippling (always whole numbers!) might help by making the font sharper and thus easier to read. The big effort is in the translation so that would basically be a free way to improve the overall quality. The rendering/uploading will take longer, but you can just let your PC do that while you sleep or work at $dayjob. The subtitle functionality of RUclips might also be an option? It gives high quality text independent of the underlying video (and would also save you the rendering work).
@@phoenixmaiika I think the editing program doesn't really matter. Putting text onto of a video is something I would expect from even the most basic programs. There also shouldn't be a big difference in quality if you use the same settings, so let's discuss these. Resolution is the number of pixels the resulting image has. Every pixel is a square filled with a single color so more pixels means more details can be shown. There are 3 relevant resolutions: 1. Resolution of the source video (=what you get from somewhere and before you do anything). 2. Resolution of the output video (=what you upload to RUclips). 3. Resolution of the monitor. If two resolutions match then the image can simply be copied over. If the output resolution is lower than the input, then it has to discard information (=worse quality). If the output resolution is higher, then it needs to fill the additional pixels with something. There are various approaches for that (duplicating one of the neighbors, taking the average of all neighbors, much more complex options). Scaling twice generally produces a worse result than scaling just once, so using the same resolution for uploading to RUclips as the input has would be preferable. But a higher resolution gives you better quality in the text so that might be worth it if the input resolution is too low. If you decide to scale before uploading, then you should probably prefer an integer multiple of the input resolution (and definitely not lower) or one of the common monitor resolutions (to reduce the chance of scaling on that end). Bitrate: There is no way to save the exact value of every single pixel so there is lossy compression. A higher bitrate gives you bigger files, but they contain more information to produce a result that's closer to the original. If the bitrate is too low, then you get a blurry/blocky image. Scenes with a lot of movment and/or with a low contrast (like dark scenes) suffer the most from low bitrate imo. Set it as high as possible. The only downsides are bigger files and longer rendering/upload times. RUclips has some recommendations but it will also accept higher bitrates (but might reduce it if it thinks it is too high). x264 CPU preset (if you don't use your GPU for rendering): Slower is obviously slower but it tends to give smaller files and/or better quality. This is important for livestreaming where you need to send your video out at the same speed as it is recorded but in your case, it is mostly a matter of how much time you are willing to throw at it. You didn't say which program you use and more importantly, I don't know anything about the original video you used so I can't give you any specific recommendations. I would start by checking that the resolution and bitrate aren't lower than the source video, which would be an annoying mistake but at least easy to fix. But if the quality of the original is already like this, then you can't do anything about it (besides finding a better version, if there is any). You have a good point about flagging/copyright claims. I don't think it really makes a difference for the automated flagging system, but it could influence the decision of humans. There is always a risk so do what you feel is right.
Im confused.....why did it end right after getting Fuuka? I'm also a little salty that they didn't do a cool triumphant sudden "wild card use" for the big emperor/empress battle but thats a different complaint. I am actively confused by where they chose to end, like there is more of the story, but also its the ending so...yeah
There's 5 The Weird Masquerade musicals xD so that's why. The second one covered a lot of the story, I was confused too, like "why the heck are there 3 more when you're already at this point of the story? XD"
Listen, you manage to complete it. Well done. Now, let's move on to complete Ao no Kakusei female route just like you did male route before move one to Gunjou no Meikyuu.
I know you're just excited, but you could have worded that better. She'll upload things at her own pace, no need to hassle her. It takes a lot of time to translate an entire musical. Just be grateful that you are getting these things for FREE and wait for her to upload the other musicals (if she wants to).
@@witchymyg9125 Yeah, I know. I am not in a hurry due to I aware that. I can wait. I just make sure she needs to know so she can get the job done while we wait, not hassling her.

The way Aoi Shouta says "Yamagishi no koto" hits me right in my heart, I love his voice so much
Phoenix Maiika I thought the song was called Memories of You
Spoiler alert
Which mean people memories of being with the player after his death
And it does make me cry
@@3ulba yea, you can translate Kimi no Kioku as Memories of You too and I guess it does sound better xD my bad
I thought it was kinda awkward for the protagonist to sing a song about himself 😂
@@tuturuu5415 he put all of his soul into it though 💕 & Junpei and Fuuka sang about themselves too :p
