Lunatic Parade, Neutral Prologue Translation

Admin Mawile: (ノ´ヮ´)ノ*:・゚✧Aaaand I’ve translated more!!! Since Lunatic Parade is apparently lacking translations (and is one of the games I own), I’m going to start translating it!! I am beyond excited, honestly. 

Σ(ノ°▽°)ノ Anyway, translation below the cut, and I’ll be doing the Tsukinami Prologue next!


*scene is of the nighttime sky and a full moon*

Yui: Uuu… !

Yui: ‘… uuu… It’s this time already… ?’

Yui: ‘Ah, somehow my head feels all hazy… I was already absent yesterday, I shouldn’t still be sleeping.’

Yui: ‘What… I must have a cold… I’ll take some medicine later.’

Yui: ‘… Anyway, I need to get up and get something to eat’

*sound of something hitting the floor*

Yui: Huh? Something fell…

Yui: Uh… eh… what is this?

Yui: A letter? Who could it be from?

Yui: What is this… ?

Yui: “I have taken your most important thing.

Yui: “If you want it back, come to Berstein Castle. –Earl of Walter”

Yui: Something important… taken? What.  . .

Yui: Thank goodness. My rosary is still here.

Yui: ‘What other important things… I don’t really have anything special.’

Yui: Could it be a prank? But… now that I think of it, last night’s dream…

*scene goes black, a strange, unseen man begins talking*

Man: Wake up.

Man: Wake up, Komori Yui.

Yui: … ?

Yui: This is…

*scene fades to the inside of a church, peaceful music is playing*

Yui: ‘The confession room? Huh? Why am I in such a place?’

Man: Let me declare.

Yui: Huh?

Man: Let me declare. Thy sins.

Yui: Confession…? Sin… ?

Yui: ‘Have I done anything like that recently?’

Yui: Ummm… I confess that I accidentally ate too much last night.

Yui: The food was so good, I ate more than I should have. Please forgive me for the sin of greed.

Man: Is that all?

Yui: Ummmm…

Man: You’re carrying a much greater sin… wouldn’t you agree?

Yui: … ?

Man: Since it seems you really don’t know, I will offer an explanation.

Man: If it is true that humans wish to understand each other’s souls, on such a level so that there is reason for them to do so. then love will surely be brought up from that. understanding… . Yes… That’s right.

Yui: … Y-yes… that is… that’s. . right. . but–

Man: But?

Yui: But… is that… Is it a sin?

*music fades, then turns creepier*

Man: Rather, what if it is that you are not guilty of that sin?

Yui: That sort of…

Man: People are connected to people, things that bring up people, things that nurture them, and help them live.

Man: God does not relinquish the purpose of these things to them. Therefore, they are sins.

Yui: Aa… .

Man: Do you repent?

Yui: That is… Why are you saying this to me?

Man: The fate of humans cuts these things apart, this human principle that cannot be avoided.

Yui: That’s…

Man: Do you repent?

Yui: I can’t do it.

Yui: Yes, what you describe may be something that God cannot forgive. But…

Yui: I can’t live without him.

Yui: So… If that is a sin, I will resign myself to carry that sin.

Man: You say that it’s all right if God does not forgive you.

Yui: … Yes.

Man: My oh my… that is… something you cannot do. You are an unimaginably awful sinner.  

Yui:

Man: I will bestow upon you punishment.

Yui: Punishment… ?

Man: Until you have decided to repent, I will be keeping your most important thing.

Yui: My most important thing… ?

Man: When you awaken, you will understand… If you want it to be returned… follow the directions of the card.

Yui: Eh? Card… what is–

*loud bang, screen goes black*

Yui: Aa?! Wa- Wait a minute!

Yui: Please wait!!

*screen fades to the same nighttime sky as before*

Yui: ‘I saw a dream like that… Could this be the card he talked about… ‘

*music becomes intense*

Yui:

Yui: ‘What does this mean? Could there be a link between my dream and reality?’

Yui: ‘Then… my most important thing… if it’s not the rosary then it’s– ‘

Yui:

Yui: ‘In the dream, he was blaming me… repentance… ‘

Yui: ‘So, maybe “keeping it” was… it was about him’

Yui: ‘I have to go see him right away. If something has happened to him– ‘

*Yui fades off screen, footsteps are heard running away, screen goes black*
