KDSD-10027~8: Ar tonelico II: Sekai ni Hibiku Shoujotachi no Metafalica Original Soun

[RFGalaxy]

I've been enjoying this soundtrack lately, and came here to peruse some track names.

Track 38 on Disc 1 is 一級死神デス子ちゃん. We have that as First Class Death God Deadly Deadlene. Where does that come from? 一級 is indeed first class, and 死神 is a death god. After that, though, is デス, which is Death, 子, which is a child (usually a suffix, used in names a lot), and ちゃん which is the honorific -chan... not really seeing "Deadly Deadlene" anywhere.

Something like First Class Death God Little Miss Death seems more along the lines of the Japanese, though I'm not quite happy with it... but really wondering where "Deadlene" comes from.

The NISA translations shouldn't be used as a guideline for the track names, considering the mess the game translation itself was, and that the NISA CDs also mistranslated several track names.

In another note, the opening themes to all the games should be a singular "Hill," seeing how there are locations in Ar tonelico 1 and Ar nosurge that are called the "Singing Hill," and it's implied that in-lore it is a name for a metaphysical location that served as the origin of life.
