Rokutousei no Yoru

Aimer

Kizu tsuita toki wa
Sotto tsutsumi konde kuretara ureshii
Korende tate nai toki wa
Sukoshi no yuuki wo kudasai
Omoi wa zutto todoka nai mama kyou mo
Tsumetai machi de hitori
Koko ga doko ka mo omoi dase nai

Owaranai yoru ni negai wa hitotsu
Hoshi no nai sora ni kagayaku hikari wo
Modore nai basho ni suteta mono de sae
Umare kawatte ashita wo kitto terasu

Hoshikuzu no naka de anata ni deaeta
Itsuka no kimochi no mama aetara yokatta
Modora nai kako ni naita koto de sae
Umare kawatte ashita wo kitto terashite

Hoshikuzu no naka de anata ni deaeta
Itsuka no kimochi no mama aetara yokatta
Modora nai kako ni naita koto de sae
Umare kawatte ashita wo kitto terashite kureru

Nemurenai toki wa, sotto te wo tsunaide kuretara ureshii;
Yoake wa kuru yo to sasayaite itte, uso demo ii kara
negai wa zutto, kanaunai mama konya,
seiza no  wasure satte, kiete shimmata, mou modorenai

Owaranai yoru ni negai wa hitotsu
Hoshi no nai sora ni kagayaku hikari wo
Ima wa to sugite, hakanai hoshin demo,
umarekawatte, yozore o kitto terasu 

Hoshikuzu no naka de deaeta kiseki ga, hitogomi no naka ni;  natte mienai ku naru;
modorenai kako ni naida yorutachi ni;
Sugeru sayonara ashita wa kitto kagayateru yo ni
Konna chiisa na seiza nano ni
koko ni itta koto kizuiteta;

Arigato

Owaranai yoru ni negai wa hitotsu
Hoshi no nai sora ni kagayaku hikari wo
Modore nai basho ni suteta mono de sae
Umare kawatte ashita wo kitto terasu

Hoshikuzu no naka de anata ni deaeta
Itsuka no kimochi no mama aetara yokatta
Modora nai kako ni naita koto de sae
Umare kawatte ashita wo kitto terashite kureru

"Nemurenai toki wa sotto te wo tsunaide kuretara ureshii…”

“When I can’t sleep, I’d be happy if we quietly held hands…”

Rokutousei no Yoru by Aimer [NO.6 ED Song Translation]

Rokutusei No Yoru

Aimer

When I’m hurt,
If you could hold me gently in your arms, I’d be really happy.
When I slip and fall, and can’t get up by myself,
Please share a bit of your courage with me.
As my feelings remain unknown to you,
I’m wandeirng in this cold town again today.
I can’t even recall where this place is.
On this endless night, I only have one wish.
For the beam of light on the starless sky to shine on
the place I can’t return to, so even the things I’ve left behind
can change into light that will surely shine on tomorrow.
Among the stardust, I met you.
If we can meet again with our feelings unchanged, that’d be great.
I can’t return to the past, but even my tears will change into light that will surely shine on tomorrow.
When I can’t sleep,
I’d be happy if we quietly held hands.
When daybreak comes,
I’ll whisper. It’s alright even if it’s a lie.
The wish that will never come true.
Tonight, the constellation that will be removed
has disappeared, and already can’t return.
On this endless night, I have one wish.
That light would shine on this sky with no stars.
Even the star that is too far and transient
will surely light up and illuminate the night sky.
The miracle that I came across in the stardust,
is inside the crowd and out of sight again.
The night that I cried for the past that I can’t return
I’ll say good bye to it, and will surely shine on tomorrow.
Though it was only a small constellation,
It has been notice that it was once here.
Thank you…

"I'd rather die tomorrow than live a hundred years without knowing you."

An Interview with Atsuko Asano

Ketika saya sedang berkeliling mencari informasi seputar NO.6, saya menemukan artikel menarik ini di sebuah forum. Memang bukan berupa artikel panjang, tapi artikel singkat ini cukup menjelaskan kita seputar niat Atsuko Asano-sensei memberikan 'bumbu' sho-ai pada NO.6 yang tidak bergenre sho-ai. Dan apakah benar adanya kalau kita mengatakan Nezumi dan Sion itu saling mencintai dan bukan sekadar fanservice belaka?

Inilah sedikit kutipan interview dengan Atsuko Asano yang kutemukan di sebuah forum. Check it out, guys!

NO. 6 [Pengantar]

YOSH! Bulan baru, anime baru. NO. 6 adalah anime baru produksi Studio BONES. Anime ini bergenre Sci-Fi. Merupakan adaptasi dari novel Atsuko Asano-sensei dengan judul sama yang berjumlah 9 volume. No. 6 juga sudah dibuat versi manganya. Dapat dibaca di sini .

Dari segi cerita, NO. 6 benar-benar bagus. Misteri-misteri yang diberikan mengajak kita untuk berpikir dan selalu penasaran dengan perkembangan cerita selanjutnya. Dan karakterisasi yang mendalam serta tidak biasa juga memberikan nilai plus dalam novel/anime/manga ini. Kalau soal keunggulan dan kekurangan dari masing-masing versi akan dibahas di post selanjutnya ya :)

Sekarang saya akan membahas dari segi umum saja.
