LASA-5104: Kamisama no Memochou: It's the only NEET thing to do. ORIGINAL...

[LiquidAcid]

In case someone wants to do a bit of editing, resizing, cutting and cropping with his image manipulation tool of choice, I've uploaded some fullsize scans here:

Also includes cuesheet and logfile from the extraction so you can also check if our current track lengths are correct. I currently lack the time to do so.

I'm assuming Foldout 4 is supposed to be Front & Back? It's the only one that looks like it. "03 Booklet" is 0 bytes and has no extension, so I suppose that could be it, but obviously there's no way I can open the file.
Edit: Never mind, WinRAR is dumb sometimes.

Hi!

I wanted to translate the Japanese tracks for this disc, but I'm not sure about track 17 (次の金は東にありて). I think I more or less understand the meaning, but I don't really know how to translate it (not really sure if this ありて thing is a special construction or if it simply means ある).

Any ideas?

Here's my attemp so far, I'd really appreciate some feedback (English is not my mother tongue).

01 Teddy
02 The seamy side
03 事件 The incident
04 N.E.E.T.
05 Apathy syndrome
06 園芸部 Gardening club
07 HANAMARU
08 Realize
09 99 NEETs
10 Tender color
11 予感 Presentiment
12 思い出はいつだって優しいから Memories are always tender
13 Dearest pain
14 真実と優しい嘘 Truth and Sweet Lies
15 Alice in computer room
16 2分30秒でわかる楽しいNEET life It becomes clear in 2 minutes and 30 seconds that living a NEET’s life is fun
17 次の金は東にありて
18 Antenna
19 漢は多くを語らず True men don’t talk too much
20 彩夏 Ayaka
21 Bad trip
22 屋上に咲いた花 The flower that bloomed on the roof
23 Hazard
24 Hope in despair
25 真実と事実の狭間 Between truth and reality
26 Sad drops
27 It’s the only NEET thing to do.
28 Wishful fiction
29 I hope so...

That's all for now!

That's what I though, thanks! How would you translate it, then? Any idea? I suppose it's talking about money and not gold, right?
"New/ The next fortunes will be made in the East"? Sounds awful to me ><

[Ushio]

I suggest a different way of reading. I have 2 conclusions so far.
1. 金 in the sentence is part of a pun. (most unlikely)
2. 金 as an abbreviation of 金曜日 (Friday) Which sometimes Japanese will say 金曜.
I think to add to being dramatic, it would translate to something like: "Next Friday, in the East." I would recommend this. (see Rikaichan or Rikaikun as a reference)
This would be likely if this is actually referred in the anime itself. They may be referring to a town here, since plenty of times the Japanese will omit the subject of the sentence. (and the anime takes place in a city, which is common to plenty of Japanese.)

I believe this to be the best possibility, since "next money" makes no sense, unless there is some rhetoric going on here. (such as who has the rest of the money, in the anime.)

As for the pun idea, it can't be inferred easily in English accurately (ex. next "monday", next "goal" etc.) Since this isn't originally intended for America.

I hope this helps!

Thank you for your reply!

Maybe you're right and 金 is referring to 金曜日! I haven't watched the anime, so I don't know what it is about, maybe I need to do a little bit of research on the plot.

If can't come up with I better idea, then I'll probably stick with the "Next Friday, in the East", I hope you don't mind!

sorry, I watched the anime and friday makes no particular sense in the anime unlike money
in eps 2-3 meo must get money to save her father from mafia or something like that

if staff can delete the capped romaji tracklist, I replaced it (and added an english one)
