TL Notes/comments:
masaki erica's works are so hard to work with stylistically...
uhhh I tried my best to integrate the (copious) amounts of english, sorry if it still feels choppy!!
There is a lot to comment on......
仕掛けよう - shikakeyou can also mean 'to cast'... I really wanted to write 'Let's cast the spell' or smth but that's probably assuming too much? There's some kind of magic/nighttime/?circus? theme going on here. ITS REALLY COOL. it's in the title too!!! Gimmick does mean 'a trick' etc after all, and if you think about this in terms of Part 2 and how this was the theme song to their TV show :') im not cryiNG
胸衝く Scene It's kaleidoscope! - munetsuku means lit. piercing your heart buT I THINK, this is a p close equivalent..?
僕らは夜にキラめく Juggler - FUCK IT WAS ACTUALLY JUGGLERS I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS. other than that i struggled to pick a good adjective for kirameku (Sparking? Twinkling? Shining? Glittering? Glimmering? Nothing sounds good when the noun you have to modify is Juggler. I just think abt clowns in sequined costumes......... i..............)
研ぎ澄ましたら Logistic mind - i just wanted to point out that I LOVE THAT IORI SINGS THIS LINE
ガラじゃない means 'that's out of character for me' 'i'm not suited for that type of thing' 'that's not Me' etc.
My way, your way 交差して Shine! - lmfao kousa means crossing (over an intersection, hence 'kousaten') or... the genetic crossing over....... Punnet Square Gimmick.....
持ち寄れば - lit. means to gather, but fuck it 'bring it all together' (the way... i7 brings together a bunch of unique individuals... seven colors....) sounds much better
同じだよ どんなカタチであっても We Seven colors - thIS LINE MAKES ME FEEL SO STRONGLY, THIS IS PART 2, THIS IS SO PART 2, NO MATTER HOW WE LOOK, NO MATTER WHAT WE ARE NOW WE'RE STILL IDOLiSH7, IM FucKN EMO
止まらない 予感を全部イマに賭けてみて - the usage of yokan always makes me think of Hata Aki.... Hata-san doesn't write for i7 tho, damn (she writes for ycast!!)
いつもより…ちょっと大人な Another face 見せたくて - For this line I couldn't tell if it was mezzo (itsumo yori) --> chotto otona na (pythag) --> Another face (pythag+mezzo?? Just pythag?? ALL?) --> Misetakute (all for sure). another face gave me great pains because someone had a really Shining Vocal Moment with really powerful stand-out vibrato+singing. I'm 80% sure it's KENN, but I know Egu has it in him to belt like that (haven't really heard it in i7, and he doesn't have that type of vibrato so). So is it pythag+mezzo? or all members? damassu and onoken are hard to pick out when there's more than 3 people singing......... I'm just gonna assume it's all of them, man.
As usual, if you see any mistakes/mistranslations/etc, please message me!
