Susumu Hirasawa turns 59 today. Why not wish him a happy birthday via Twitter?

I’d forgotten that the Kangen version of “Gaabera” that Masami Orimo sang at the Nomonos and Imium Interactive Live Show was included with the Haldyn Dome…It’s rather short, so I attempted a quick translation and added it to the Other Translations index.

ガーベラ / Gaabera / Gerbera

Romanization/translation by me. Please link back to this entry if you use the translation or post it elsewhere. [[MORE]] Masami Orimo (a.k.a Sanmia) sung this song at the conclusion of the 2013 Nomonos and Imium Interactive Live Show. The Kangen version is included on CD 16 of the Haldyn Dome. You can hear the original version on the Shampoo album Cold Sleep. —— ガーベラの花髪にさしてたの...

The End of "Nomonos and Imium"

The “Nomonos and Imium” Interactive Live Show concluded last night without the audience getting the Bad Ending even once. While on the first two nights Sigma-12 managed to return the Nomonos to the botanical garden, on the final night it ended up inside the package sent to Hirasawa (ヒラサワ), and his Saphaon caused it to transform into a handheld microphone. (According to the story, it...

"Nomonos and Imium", Day Three

The final Interactive Live Show will take place tonight at 6:30 PM (JST). The live stream and TinyChat links remain the same as the previous two nights. Last night the audience once again reached the Good Ending, though via a slightly different route than before. I predict that people may try to go for one of the other endings tonight, but we’ll just have to wait and see. Those of you...

"Nomonos and Imium", Day 2

The second of the three Interactive Live Shows will take place tonight at 7 PM (JST). There appear to have been some problems with the live streams, but hopefully those will be resolved today. Last night the audience reached the Good Ending, but it’s possible to get a Game Over if the Saphaon level is too low, so keep that in mind if you’re one of the Saphaon Donors (i.e., part of...

Hirasawa Derp Of The Day

rogueturds: Figured out the meaning of Sanmia. Orimo + Masami = Amputee Sanmia. Orimo Masami is the lead singer of Shampoo, whose husband, Pevo #1, was a guest musician at Hirasawa-san’s last live. She appears as a guest performer in this Interactive Live. I should have known when he mentioned “Amputee Garden” (instead of Amputee Gerbera) which is the name of an event that Orimo-San puts on...

"Nomonos and Imium" Starts Tonight

The “Nomonos and Imium” Interactive Live Show will take place at the Shibuko this week, starting tonight. The Thursday and Friday performances will start at 7 PM, while the Saturday one will begin at 6:30 PM (JST). As of this post NO ROOM has yet to post a link to a livestream, but I have heard that you may be able to watch it here or here. (If NO ROOM provides different links later...

Possibly Of Further Interest To Hirasawa Fans...

rogueturds: Some progress on the word サファオン (Saphaon)! It is the (Latin misspelling of a Greek translation of the) name of one of four imperial Persian gardens. Not much else, as the only texts I can find it referenced in are Latin, and mine’s a bit rusty to get much more than that from them.

"Nomonos and Imium" Story + Glossary

I have attempted to translate the Story and Glossary sections from the website for the “Nomonos and Imium” Interactive Live Show, although I may revise this in the near future depending on the content of the official translation. [[MORE]] —— Story That day, a package I’d bought by mail order arrived: a box of assorted organically-grown fruit. The moment that I lay...

Possibly Of Interest To Hirasawa Fans...

rogueturds: Nomonos (νομονος) is Greek for “The Law”. Imyum refers to the northernmost holy mountain in Hindu religious texts, and plays a role in the formation of the Earth during the wedding of Shiva and Parvuti. Just thought I’d put that out there, since people have been asking.

Tweets from January 8, 2013

I have attempted to translate a number of tweets in which Mr. Hirasawa discusses some of the features of the upcoming “Nomonos and Imium” Interactive Live Show. [[MORE]] —— I raise my hand to speak. [x] I would like to announce that I am experimenting with some new things for the upcoming Interactive Live Show, “Nomonos and Imium”. [x] The biggest experiment will...

Special Site for Nomonos and Imium

A special site containing story-related information, instructions for online audience participation, and several screenshots for the upcoming Interactive Live Show is now available for viewing. I have read through the Story and Glossary sections and will attempt to translate them in the near future.
