Elisabeth - Wenn ich dein Spiegel wär (2012 Japanese Production)

English Translation:

Rudolf:
I’m always waiting for your return
So that we may talk
We’re similar to each other
We don’t feel at ease in this world/society

Since I am your mirror
You should understand all of my thoughts

Elisabeth:
I don’t. It’s been a long time

Rudolf (Spoken):
Then I’ll tell you (lit: I’ll report to you)

Rudolf:
I’ve fallen into the worst situation
It’s hopeless and no one can help me
Only you can persuade Father

Elisabeth:
You’re speaking of politics, aren’t you?

Rudolf:
Long ago, you saved Hungary

Elisabeth:
That was the past

Rudolf:
Now there is no way
To save the Habsburgs from ruin **

Elisabeth:
I’ve cast off my chains
And I won’t beg the Emperor
Not even for your sake

(** Rudolf’s last two lines kind of confused me, so I’m not sure if they’re 100% correct)

I’d love to proof your subs for you, but I should warn you that I’m not a native speaker of English, if that’s a problem…

That’s not a problem! It’s always nice to have another pair of eyes look them over :)

I’d love too; it would be great fun! I’m estimated for an A in my Higher English, so I do like to pride myself on my grammar. Aha. If you’re needing a hand, just let me know. :)

Awesome, thank you! I’ll be sure to let you know :D

yukinojou:

Quick picspam just to show people what I’m talking about (that is, the Anniversary Gala Concert of the Elisabeth musical by ex-actresses of the all-female Takarazuka Revue - hence the pronoun confusion). From the top:

- Icchan and Komu as Death/Tod and Rudolf von Habsburg

- Icchan in the prologue, looking stunning

- O-Hana IS Empress Elisabeth

- Hatsukaze Jun with ~~her backup band~~ the courtiers

- Tom hamming it up as Luigi Lucheni, the narrator anarchist assassin, with Nacchan as Helene

- HUNGARIANS, also known as Nettan, Hayaya and Nagi

- my favourite Icchan outfit in the concert, just because

it’s weird - I can still use the unlisted option on my old channel - but not on the newer one :\

If you’ve had a video taken down for copyright or anything else that would take your account out of “good standing” they take it away from you.

All right, I’ve decided that I’m going to do a complete overhaul on my Elisabeth translation. Some lines of dialogue are missing because of timing issues and I’d like to redo the videos into only 4 instead of a lot of short videos.

Is there anyone out there that is willing to proofread my subtitles? I swear English is my first language, but reading some of the subs, you wouldn’t know it lol. I have way too many typos and I don’t always catch them. I’d like to make sure everything is correct before I code the subs again.

N’awwwww, that’s too bad :( I’ve been eyeing them for quite a while too. Maybe I should just go ahead and buy a couple when I haven the cash.

I know, I was so excited for a second, then it’s like NOPE DENIED =/

I may just wait and buy them when I’m in Japan because they’re really inexpensive, but the shipping will kill me. Awhile back I was looking at buying the Japanese translation of Harry Potter; the book itself was only $20 roughly, but shipping was an extra $40.

Aw, I can’t buy the kindle editions since they know I’m from the US and they’re not available here.

LAME.

I was really excited for a second because I thought I could buy Japanese editions of books now. I’d have to make an account with a Japanese address, but I need a credit card for that.
