Looks like whoever scanned it forgot those pages. Looks like the musician credits may be on those pages too - I can see "Guitar: 田部井とおる" showing through on page 9.

I think Bye B is for Bye Binbougamikai (quitting binbougamikai for ningenkai)

even as an Ichiko's "classmate", her name's Momiji Binboda

edit: I must say one thing about 紅葉, its reading is either kouyou or momiji but in this case it's momiji

"Baibii" is one informal and casual way of saying "Bye Bye" in 80s. Not watched the anime (quit it at the first 15 mins), but I'm not sure it has something to do with the anime context.

It means the match isn't fixed. "Serious", perhaps.

Okay so if his or her last name is Momiji, what's that make the first name? It isn't read as Binboda as I've seen other places and Toujou might be right but I have no way to verify.

I guess it's going to be hard to figure out what baibii really is unless someone's seen the show. All 3 seem reasonable.

Both isn't usually used if there's more than two, usually only for two. Does it mean something else? I couldn't really grasp it.

Also, 'Momiji' is in the last name position in the track title, so is Momiji the character's last name and they're called by their last name on the show, or is the second word ("Touhou" for now) not part of the name?

I think you don't get it, the binbougami's name is just Momiji and when she becomes a "classmate" of Ichiko she uses Binboda as a last name (-> Momiji Binboda)
and toujou is just for saying "Appears"

very honestly, I don't understand or you really were tired when you tried translating

No, I just didn't understand. I thought it was a full name (lastname firstname), not a word.

The transformation explanation makes the "Bye B!" track make more sense, too. I think it should have an apostrophe to make it clearer that it's shortening a word ("Bye B'!").

Only real fuzzy one left is track 16, that one just doesn't make sense to me. Rest look decent now, thanks!

"共" works like an equivalent of the 's' suffix for noun in English, with or without disdain depending on the context. "Useless Guys" may be closer.

"揃い踏み" is derived from sumo, but outside of that, it tends to means people (who are key members) assemble and are ready to do something. So what the track name is trying to say would be all of the anime's weird characters are there.

"Weird People Gather" sounds a bit off, I think "Weird People Gather Together" sounds a bit better in English but I wonder if I'm implying too much?

Thanks for the help, both of you.

Oh, I slightly edited my post after your latest post. You could add whatever to render it in natural English.

I just want to say your English skills are great. You write very naturally and with few errors, certainly no more than the average native speaker makes. I have friends who, even when putting forth their best effort, can't write as well as you do.

Thanks. I actually totally let my browser's spell check function to type longer words. Since VGMdb has several excellent non-native translators, I often find me wanting in skills, and also regret some of the small conflicts that I could have avoided.

As you didn't go with "Sub Tai" but "Subtitle", you could also go with "Melody Orchestra" here. If it's hard to get the meaning, just go with "Instrumental".

"Ippon Ittoku?" per se is to offering to do something once, and what to do is totally depends on the context. However, it may be a pun of "All Night Nippon", and just leaving it in Romaji seems to be fine to me.

Thanks Cedille! Any thoughts on Urahara Sakasa? It's got me stumped.

Have no clue. I read the lyrics and Wikipedia's character descriptions, and assume it's overall about how both Ichiko and Momiji pretend to dislike each other and hide real feelings. It's a duet song of Ichiko and Momiji, so "Urahara" might represent how contrasting the two characters are, and "Sakasa" might mean what they say contrary to what they actually think.

Can't really come up with translations though. I wonder if we have to translate something like a song title. FFX's theme song is more widely recognized as "Suteki da ne" than "Isn't it Wonderful?", even among Western after all. Then again we already have a Romaji tracklist so for an English tracklist we are supposed to translate everything...
