    "Now you know the nature of my tragedy: that I was dead before I was born" WOW

    With these lyrics, I feel like Utena would be really transparent. Like, cripplingly transparent. This song fits for both Utena and Anthy and their roles as the actresses in their own stories and in their dual (see what I did there) narrative. I really love how you conceptualized these lyrics, and they bring a real sense of futility not only to this duel (Saionji v. Utena), but to ALL of them. Very well done; I love this project to death!

      Unrelated to your comment but I love seeing an Utena fan who is also a Boogiepop fan ❤❤

    This translation relates so well to Anthy it's not even funny. Great job! Can't wait to see more!

    Thanks a ton for this. Your recontextualization/sense-making of the original lyrics adds that real sense of doomed romance that the music deserves. Hope to see more soon!

    When
    Where
    Who
    Which
    When
    Where
    Who
    Which
    Blood is flowing from the cage inside of my mind
    From the moment I was brought into eternal bliss
    I am just an actor
    Standing here forever
    Frozen solid in the sand
    Just like the Sphinx
    Standing proud
    Now you know the nature of my tragedy
    That I was already dead before I was born
    Yes, I'm just an actor
    Shining here forever
    Even as I'm cast aside
    Down into the pits of hell
    Glowing
    Burning
    Freezing
    Crying
    Awakening once more
    Born in an instant
    To rehearse it once more

    So glad to see these videos come back! I've always loved the duel songs and I'd been looking for something like this for a while. Would love to see more!

    Hey, I'm glad to see this channel's not abandoned! Thanks for improving my night; I'm pretty sick, and rather needed it. ^^

      Yup! After seeing that the original video got way more views than I ever imagined, I decided (after 5 months *cough*) to continue this project! Glad to hear you enjoyed! ^^

      Great job!
      Just today I was remembering this series and was planning to re-watch it.
      I'm so curious about your translation to the Last Evolution song. I hope you have the time to translate it someday.

    This song honestly helped me out a lot with my interrogative word assignments back in grade school. 😂

    Yikes, that has some really chilling implications...the song practically spoils the ending.

    this interpretation screams ANTHY as hell...is even sad

    It might be irrelevant, but this song reminds me of the metal band Therion. The exotic chord, female chorus, and mysticism lyrics. It's a pleasing little eureka for me.
