Saiyuki (Gojyo) - Ça va mal - Now subbed!

Anime: Saiyuki

Song: "Ça va mal" by Mes Aieux

Not only have I added English subtitles, I've also improved the credits a bit; because last time, besides forgetting some characters, I also didn't know really how to work them. There's a separate colour subtitle for each character speaking.

Assorted translation notes: "Ça va mal" literally means "it goes bad"; wasn't sure how to translate it, so I left it be. A "député" is the québecois term for a member of Federal or Provincial parliament; while Liberal is a major Canadian political party. Apologies if I've gotten the translation wrong; my French isn't as good as I'd like it to be.

Thanks. My French has improved a lot -- I did this three years ago, after all -- but my idioms still suck. Well, only one way to change that: read more! Or listen to more quebecois music.

Actually, "ça va mal" in this context would translate to "I'm in big trouble". "It gets worse" would be more like "ça empire". Still, nice try. The translation is good, though there seems to be some idioms you didn't get, but that's perfectly understandable since only real Québecers can understand them. (sorry if my english isn't so great...)

Whoooo vraiment nice comme AMV. ^^

L'idée est très original et comique.

C'est si rare de voir des chanson québecoise.

Trés bonne traduction.

It depends on if your server can receive attachments of that size. Let me check -- it's around 4.9 MB. (Heck, I'm not even sure if MY server will let me send attachments that big!)
