  • Seija's theme. ...DON'T LISTEN TO THIS STUPID SONG! AND DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT SUPPORTING TOUHOU LYRICS ON PATREON! / lyricalive
    (...Eh? So, does it work? "Reverse ideology"?)
    Honestly, I love this song, and this was the most fun I've ever had with a fandub. As an amanojaku, Seija makes the absolute most flawless Touhou antagonist, and her character is so ironically likable for such a pain-in-the-butt punk. VIVA LA YOUKAI REVOLUTION!!! I think these lyrics capture the rebellious spirit of both DDC and ISC; also, the "inch/mile" line is the cleverest thing ever, fight me.

    It’s what I ↑KNOW YOU THINK↑
    Or what you ↓THINK YOU KNOW↓
    You’ve got the whole world wrong-
    I’ve got the proof to show.
    The lie is in the ↑TRUTH.↑
    The truth is in the ↓LIE↓
    I’ll turn it all around-
    Don’t need a reason why.
    Your blessings are my ↑CURSE↑
    My curses are your ↓GIFT↓
    And with a simple twist,
    I’m gonna cause a rift.
    My curses are my ↑GIFT↑
    Your blessings are your ↓CURSE↓
    Take a familiar tune
    And put it in reverse: »

    The more you win, you lose.
    Go on and do your worst!

    Your cards are suited for
    A very different hand.
    You say to me, ↑“PLAY FAIR”↑
    I say, it’s all ↓FAIR PLAY↓
    You say, “impossible,”
    But I can find a way-
    Find my way out when I’m caught in a pinch,
    ‘Cause the stage has been set for a while.
    Just give me a trigger, just give me an "inch"
    And I’ll ride to the top on a mile!
    The way you reject is the way that I choose,
    Since I know it’ll drive you insane.
    Unlike all of you, I’ve got nothing to lose
    And a whole world of difference to gain!
    There’s no room for compromise, only one choice:
    Revolution, one-eighty degrees!
    The beggars will rise with the governing voice,
    And the strongest will drop to their knees!
    No, no more subjecting the weak and the small!
    Let the hierarchy rearrange.
    The bigger you are, well, the harder you fall:
    Hit the ground- feel the sound of a change!

      Funnily enough, that is exactly what mythological amanojaku are like... Ever seen a statue of some Asian deity standing on a small, almost child-like demon? That is an amanojaku being trampled by a god... And that's pretty much their reward and place in the world: They'll be nuisances and as a reward they get to be defeated by gods. I don't think even the gods understand their nigh-masochistic mindset but, you know, as long as there are some relatively harmless demons that they get to curbstomp, and them doing that is considered awesome by all parties involved, including the amanojaku, who are they to complain?

      @Brady Cook Eh, it's rather that "winning" isn't a conclusion condition to her. Rather, if she wins, then she just keeps the conflict going without ever even stopping to celebrate her "victory", because the conflict itself is what she ultimately wants and there is no actual "victory condition" beyond keeping the conflict going in the here and now.

    Funny thing to think about: Seija is the first Touhou villain to have won. Sure, she didn't make the weak the rulers and the strong the oppressed as she originally set out to do, but she _did_ turn the world of Touhou upside-down. Unlike all other villains (save for Tenshi), she's not forgiven and befriended after she's defeated in DDC; in Impossible Spell Card you play the bad gal running from the "law" instead of the other way around and the spell card rules have been thrown into the wind. Seija also doesn't use her own powers during Impossible Spell Card when you get to play as her but instead uses the powers of several other playable characters... She turned the world upside-down allright. She turned it upside-down _for us_. Again.

    • @GrahamChapman
      @GrahamChapman 8 лет назад +70

      sonofrose
      Not really, no. Ignoring the fact that she, like you said, isn't a villain by any definition of the word, there's still the fact that the plot of UFO wasn't about the Myourens attempting to found a temple, it was to release Byakuren from Makai. Frankly speaking, Byakuren wasn't even involved with/aware of the plot of UFO to have her released until it had already succeeded. She was just locked up in Makai and the other Myouren residents set out to free her... Sure, in a way I suppose you could say that the "villains" of UFO, the Myouren residents, succeeded/won but, well, they're still not even vaguely villainous... the playable characters of UFO were arguably bigger villains than the Myourens... >__>

  • @CypherDVoid
    @CypherDVoid 5 лет назад +338

    There's a lot of clever reversed lyrics in here that work really well, but my favourite in this song will be the line:
    "Unlike all of you I've got nothing to lose,
    and a whole world of difference to gain"
    I think this line really fuels a lot of speculation into Seija's character.
    As an amanojaku she is naturally hated by everyone, and she has always had nothing. But is that the sort of life she wants? Does she enjoy being hated, like people expect, or does she secretly resent her status?
    And even if she couldn't care less about what people think of her, the fact that she has no possessions, no loved ones, and no place to call home means that she has no risk in trying to create an entire upheaval of the system. There is nothing in the world that could possibly go worse for her, even if she completely turns the world on its head. But maybe, just maybe, there is a chance that her life might be better because of it.

    • @GrahamChapman
      @GrahamChapman 5 лет назад +54

      The word "Amanojaku" is used by Japanese to describe a contrarian. Seija being an Amanojaku means that she has no particular personal preference for what kinda life she wants for herself. Rather, her preferences are based upon whatever's contrary to the norms in any given situation. Hence, "Unlike all of you I've got nothing to lose, and a whole world of difference to gain": She doesn't care what the situation is, she doesn't care what people have and what they lack, and she doesn't care what people would gain and what they would lose if she succeeded with turning society upon its head, the fact that she made the whole world completely different from what it originally was is the only thing she values. "The clusterfuck is its own reward" kinda thing.
      If you want to look for depth in a Touhou character, then I'm afraid I gotta break it to you: You won't find it in Seija 'cuz she's a _delightfully_ shallow rebel hipster troll... Still, if you _insist_ on attributing her with some kinda character depth, then consider the following: An Amanojaku's nature is that they act contrary to everyone else. They don't want to make friends, they want to make enemies, because that's an Amanojaku's equivalent to friends. They don't want to make other happy, they want to make them upset, because that's an Amanojaku's equivalent to "being there" for others. They don't want to be loved, they want to be hated, because they're just plain contrarians that way... If you take that to its logical conclusion, then that means that the way an Amanojaku would express its love for someone else is going to be abusive. Now, try to write a Seija slashfic with a happy ending without breaking character. I swear, Seija is the shippers' ultimate foil.
      (I've actaully only seen one story that managed to pull off that feat, and it accomplished it by making Seija _really_ freaked out by her "unnatural feelings" for Shinmyoumaru... not the gayness of the feelings, as Shinmyoumaru assumed at one point in the story, Seija didn't give a schlock about that, but rather the unnaturalness of wanting to see Shinmyoumaru smile and laugh and stuff... Most of the comedy in that story was, appropriately enough, considering the contrarian nature of it all, derived from the completely serious "drama" of Seija coming to terms with the fact that she didn't want to see Shinmyoumaru cry and/or suffer, like a normal Amanojaku would, instead going through melodramatic phases of "What the hell am I doing to Shinmyoumaru?! This is not how you're not supposed to treat your Significant Other! I'm an unnatural sicko! A freak!" kinda like a person who's just discovered that they're into BDSM and is very much conflicted about this freaky kink... except, with all the BDSM and stuff exchanged with fluff like making Shinmyoumaru valentines' chocolate, taking her on romantic dates and calling her cute pet names... I only saw that story once and haven't been able to find it since, though.)

      That reminds me of the Communist Party manifesto, with the sentence "you have nothing to lose but your chains". In fact, there are several lines that sound inspired by socialist, communist songs; I mean, take an extract from the Internationale:
      "The earth shall rise on new foundations:
      We have been nought, we shall be all!"
      It wouldn't sound out of place among the last stanzas.

    Пусть будет тут. :)
    Всё перевернуть, всё перевернуть,
    Воздвигнутое в небесах обрушить на землю.
    (2 раза)
    Расскажи о своих мечтах, и я покажу тебе твои кошмары.
    Скажи мне остановиться, и я продолжу, и начну снова.
    Это то, что я знаю, вы думаете?
    Или то, что вы думаете, что знаете?
    Мир, что есть у вас - неправильный,..
    Доказательства, что есть у меня - покажут это.
    Ложь в истине.
    Истина во лжи.
    Я всё переверну,..
    И причины тому не нужны.
    Ваши блага - моя беда,
    Мои беды - ваш подарок.
    Таким вот простым вывертом,
    Я внесла меж нами раскол.
    Мои беды - мой подарок,
    Ваши блага - ваша беда.
    Взять знакомый мотив
    И перевернуть:
    »Расскажи о своих мечтах, и я покажу тебе твои кошмары...
    Это моя философия.
    Скажи мне остановиться, и я продолжу, и начну снова…
    Реверсивная идеология. «
    Так же как я была последней, по-первой,
    Так же я стану первой, впоследствии.
    А ваши гнилые правила,
    Оставлю в прошлом.
    Если я смогу посмеяться последней,
    Значит, я смогу быть первой.
    Выигрывая, вы проигрываете.
    Давайте-давайте, продолжайте!
    Ох, вы не можете понять?
    Ох, поймите, что и не сможете!
    Ваши карты подходят
    Для очень разных рук. (?)
    Вы скажете «играй честно»,
    Я отвечу - это «честная игра».
    Вы скажете «невозможно»,
    Но я найду способ…
    Найду способ извернуться,
    Текущее положение временно.
    Мне нужна лишь зацепка, лишь самая малость,
    Чтобы вознестись к величию.
    Я выбрала путь, что вы отвергли,
    Ведь я знаю, что вас это бесит.
    В отличие от вас мне нечего терять,
    А получить я могу целый мир!
    Никаких компромиссов, выбор один:
    Переворот! (революция 180 градусов)
    Низшие заговорят властным голосом,
    Высшие падут к их ногам!
    Нет! Нет угнетению слабых и маленьких!
    Перетасуем иерархию!
    Чем выше ты был, тем больней упадёшь:
    И удар об землю - возвестит перемены!

I see your comments here quite often, and I'm sorry I can't reply because I don't know any Russian at all, but it makes me so happy that you can somehow enjoy these lyrics even in another language... Particularly appropriate for this song, now it's a true "Russian Reversal"... Thank you for your work!! спасибо!!

    • @lyrica-live
      @lyrica-live  8 лет назад +17

      Ohh, I also wanna take the chance to explain that one difficult-to-translate line. Sorry about that.
      _"Your cards are suited for a very different hand..."_
      It's a complicated line that I'm stupidly proud of because I like silly wordplay. It uses the motif of playing card games like poker: There, the cards have "suits" and are dealt in "hands."
      But it also evokes the figurative idiom of "the hand you're dealt in life," i.e. the privileges you're born with. Seija would say, "The hand you've been dealt (your position of power) is better suited for me."
      Additionally, speaking of "cards" is of course an allusion to "spell cards"-- because Seija literally takes the spell card rules into her own hands and shuffles things up.

      "Oh my gosh"(с), she's alive! (in virtual, of course) I'm happy.
      Use google-translate, Luke. Please.
      Я слишком плохо знаю английский, чтобы отвечать на нём.
      И поэтому, боюсь, я не заслужил вашей благодарности. :( Но всё же надеюсь, что смог правильно понять текст песни. И не сильно наврал при переводе. :)
      >It's a complicated line that I'm stupidly proud of because I like silly wordplay
      This not "silly" and not "stupidly". This is excelent.
      Ну на мой, "русский", взгляд, конечно. :)
      Спасибо за разъяснения. Подумаю на досуге как это лучше передать.
