"This song is a weird one. Yeah.
My original intent with this was to make it highly folkish, but since it's too calm, it ended up half-folkish.
I composed this with the image of Tohno village in mind. The melody is a bit nostalgic and makes you imagine that there used to be old villages like this in Japan, too."
Epic intro is epic, can't be simpler than that.
However, if I have to speak with the truth I would say I'm still not convinced with this arrange at all.
But first, proper introductions are meant to be done I guess.
"Love Madness" is a sub circle (if there wasn't enough confusion already) of a circle called "Nigrante". They have just released one album, and it's still fresh since I'm pretty sure its from the C79. "Nigrante" seems to be the usual doujin gothic female vocal circle. However, don't get too excited with this song circle in terms of metal, since this is the only metal piece I consider worth to listen on the rest of the album. There are other 4 heavy metal tracks that they just didn't caught my attention (mainly because its a vocal album), however, this particular song had something...
When I first herd this song, my first thought on the intro was "another jewel lurking on the underground". As you can probably tell by now, when the singer starts doing her thing my face went from excitement to sadness. And here is the deal. If you just can't reach high notes, you wether don't compose in a high pitch, or as a vocalist you have to let know the rest of the guys composing they are out of their mind if they think your voice can reach those levels. Sure, it's fan made, everyone does whatever they love to and no one gets a beat for that, however I don't sympathize with the voice on this one. And it isn't the tone or the style, seems pretty good to be along the Gothic scene. It's just that I would have loved she would lower the pitch a bit, so it wouldn't have been painful to the ears listening this.
After some time, I decided I wanted to share it with you, and let you draw your own conclusions about the voice. About the song itself, it's certainly a very good arrange. You never think they can turn out of a minor and almost a joke character (is Chen really that serious?") a gigantic hymn that pictures her defending with her own life Ran and Yukari. To be honest, Chen's themes, both stage and boss are full of charm, and it's just one of the songs that ZUN composes and you just can't get it out of your head the first time you heard it. Plus, I always feel "fuzzy and warm" when I hear both songs. I don't know if it's the setting of environment in the game, or its something I'm making it up, but the feeling is still there, and I say that after all, that's what it counts.
I wonder why there are so many feline characters on Touhou and only one wolf? I like dogs, and I demand a loli dog on future touhou games.
Thanks for watching.

OH GOD A VIDEO HOW DID THIS GET HERE I AM NOT GOOD WITH COMPUTER
You will never have all your existential hopes and dreams to live on the moon systematically crushed by your suspicious-acting rabbit friend on stage in a comedy tournament that takes place in a parallel world while competing for millions of dollars worth of prime real estate on the moon ;_;
I know most of you have questions, but usual Translator Notes come first...
2:24, 2:29, 2:32
Tewi's recommended names are the names of various eldritch horrors in H. P. Lovecraft's works of fiction.

Not a literal translation, Reisen is making a joke by blending the words for 'express' and 'third round' into something that could be translated more like 'Third Round Express/train'. It's one of those foreign language wordplay things that your normal viewer can't really comprehend unless I lean on the fourth wall and point out how odd it is.

Ookuninushi (大国主) (also known as Ōnamuchi) is a Japanese god. He appears in the folk tale "The White Hare of Inaba" where he saves a rabbit that had its skin torn off for playing tricks on alligators (or sharks, sometimes). Tewi is commonly associated with this rabbit.

"Sauce?" is a common term on the internet, a tongue-in-cheek means of asking someone to reveal the source of a piece of information or image.
To tackle some of the more frequently asked questions I've been getting...
Q: "What happened to you? I thought you'd been eaten by bears or something."
A: I wasn't eaten by bears, but I have been busy - and there's a whole lot of computer-related troubles I could waste description box space on but I won't since nobody really cares about that.
Q: "Are you going to sub the 6th M-1?"
A: Maybe. I don't know if anyone picked up the project in my absence - I do know there was already a TewiReisen English video before this one, though. If Sabino (or any other prospective translators; he's my go-to guy though) wants to tackle it, I'll sub the videos as they come. I can probably manage to find raws on my own.
Q: "Why haven't you responded to my PM/Email/Comment/etc?"
A: In truth, I do read or at least glance at most things sent my way. But I've got 10,000 unread emails in my inbox, plus a couple hundred PMs on Youtube. When you consider a lot of these are spam, nonsense, video recommendations from people I don't even know, random video comments that don't need my attention, or people poking me about something I don't need anymore (I'm still getting offers of video raws for the 4th M-1) the "responding" part gets delayed. A lot.
If you really need my attention, please prefix your PM with something indicating its contents. (Important) (Attn) (?) (Subbing) (#th M-1) (Hi!) - whatever you want, it'll make you stand out from all the spam and filler mails.
... If you read all of that and still haven't watched the video, I apologize for that bit of self-centredness and hope you enjoy the Manzai.
