Venus is the token representative of beauty, love, friendship, and romance–the speaker writes down their sweet thoughts in this stylish song~

A sweet song of adventure. I’ve split the stanzas to be faithful to how they are in the printed lyrics. Thinking about doing the rest of the songs from this album, maybe?!?

ichika – I

Title: I
Arrange: ichika
Album: I (2019)
Vocal, Lyric: 川谷絵音 (Enon Kawatani)

[Listen]

I, a song about 愛. Might come back to fix the translation at another time >.<
Very vague-but-beautiful song. The lyrics have this sense that they are describing a sort of transient, but deeply felt emotion, and perhaps it’s about something beyond my understanding… but I guess being in love is kind of confusing too, yeah?

Amateras Records – 恋繋エピローグ

Title: 恋繋エピローグ (Ren’kei Epilogue / Love-tied Epilogue)
Circle: Amateras Records
Album: Everlasting Conviction (2016)
Arrange: Tracy vs. Astronomical
Vocal: KUMI (ヲタみん)
Lyrics: 築山さえ
Guitar: 零 -zero-
Original: 砕月 (Broken Moon)
[Listen]

The little oni falls in love, but one day that person is nowhere to be found… and so she continues to keep them in her heart to this very day.

The “renkei” in the title is two separate kanji which are 恋 (love) and 繋 (that which ties together). It is most likely a pun on the very similar word 連繋 (renkei) which means “connection.”

---

ここは幻想郷。外界から隔絶れて幾星霜
数多の魑魅魍魎が跋扈する
妖怪達の楽園である

This is Gensokyo.
Separated from the outside world for months, for years,
All manner of mountain demons, river spirits–
Many, many monsters run rampant.

It is a paradise for youkai.
