Translation Notes
- ↑ Kairiki Bear pointed out on Twitter that abbreviating "Darling Dance" makes "DD," which is what people call idol fans who have a lot of favorite idols ("daredemo daisuki"), often implying that loving so many must be an indication that their love is superficial or just not very deep. Some people went with this and interpreted the girl to be an idol who wants to gain the approval of her fans (or even a specific fan) but because the fan is a DD she gets depressed that she's not their #1 obsession. He says it's a coincidence, but you never know...
- ↑ Possibly referring to sex... also kind of sounds like when you tell a dog to roll over so there could be an implication of being dehumanized.
- ↑ In palm reading, the life line is said to show the state of one's love life/attitudes towards love.
- ↑ Could be any meaning of "rough,” such as "violent," "clumsy," etc. and "unprincipled" could mean having no honor, having no morals, being inconsistent, etc.
- ↑ The verb for 'drown' can also be used to describe obsession/addiction.
- ↑ Pretty common for Japanese girls to cover most of their face in photos of themselves due to low self-esteem.
- ↑ Sounds like 'darling’ but also sounds like 'dulling,' as in her darling is dulling/wearing her spirit down.
- ↑ "Nah" like "no," but also just a sound for singing.
- ↑ Again, dehumanization.
- ↑ "Acknowledgement is welcome" sounds stiff and formal; this could be reflecting how getting likes on her depressing tweets isn't the kind of love she wants, but she'll take whatever interaction she can get.
- ↑ They say that photoshopping selfies is "girls' culture" in Japan. Notice how her face lights up here as she photoshops herself into her ideal look.
