The Night Is Short, Walk On Girl

Yoru wa Mijikashi, Aruke yo Otome

STORY

Over the course of a whirlwind evening in Kyoto, the beleaguered Senpai desperately tries to connect with his crush, the Raven-Haired Maiden, who only desires to spend the night enjoying the banquet of humanity Kyoto has to offer.

RELEASE NOTES

Origin: Japanese Blu-ray
Video: 1080p/h264
Audio: 2 Japanese Audio tracks, DTS and AAC
Subtitles: English! (Well duh, that's why you're here right?)

I'm a translator/subber, not a wizard at encoding, so if you're confused about some of the choices I made, there wasn't that much logic behind it so don't bother thinking about it harder than I did. I included the original DTS file that came with the Blu-ray because the AAC I got from encoding didn't quite have the same oomph, and I included the AAC because... well, I dunno, it just didn't feel right without it, I guess. But cheers, there's both 6 channel and 2 channel audio to choose from.

TRANSLATION NOTES

There is an official translation of sorts, but I haven't seen it, so there will be quite a lot of variation from that. Hope it doesn't mess with your mind too much if you're revisiting the movie after seeing it at a festival or something. I DID purposefully take one character name from it, however, which is Don Underwear. (Seriously, that was too good to pass up.) The heroine is often referred to as the Girl with Black Hair, but I used Raven-Haired Maiden since this was a term that often came up in the version of Tatami Galaxy that I watched. I kept in all honorifics and left no translator's notes -- I'm assuming that the audience for this fansub has enough knowledge to get by already and can use Google to learn more about things mentioned in the movie.

FINAL NOTE

I hate to be that hypocritical guy but please, if the opportunity comes up for you to support this movie, please do so. The major reason I went ahead and did these subs is that there's not many chances to see it apart from big-city festivals. But, if you DO get the chance to see it in theaters or buy it on the format of your choice, maybe consider it?

That is all. Please, enjoy.
