[Translation] ロボットやめたい I Want to Stop Being A Robot - A mobile game that will give you nightmares

My friend Tatsu requested this translation. It's such a creepy and disturbing game by COCOSOLA despite its simplicity.

If you're interested in the game, you can check it out here. It's made by the same person who did Alpaca Evolution (a less creepy game, but still gets creepy later on).

I want to stop being a robot.
I want to become human.

Even if it's just my form, I want to change.
Even if it's just my outer appearance, I want to become human.

I want to get along with humans.

If everyone works together,
I can surely become human.

What's it like to live as a human?

(From the game description in Google Play)




No. 1

Year 2013. When the robot woke up, he longed for humans.
He wanted to become close to being human. He wanted to get along with humans.
He thought he should start by making himself look more human.
He intended to get the cooperation of humans of the world, remodel his body, and become a bit closer to being human.

No. 2

The robot now is planning out the control circuit in his neck.
To have a more human-like appearance, first he must attach a head.
His moving ability may become a bit affected.
That is where his whole control circuit is gathered.
However, because his neck and head aren't connected well, it can easily become disconnected.

No. 3

A robot with an attached torso.
Because his data on balancing still isn't enough,
It was uneasily decided, but he feels pretty good.
"Am I human?" he asked the system. Without an answer of "No", he felt relieved.
At present, he is in the middle of testing out his walking motion.

[Lyrics/Translation] IOSYS - 宇宙変身クライシス!Universe Transformation Crisis!

Ever since Tom Kubot introduced me to Iosys, I've been hitting their songs on repeat. Apparently, they're pretty famous among otaku in Akiba.

This is a really random song.


宇宙変身クライシス!
Universe Transformation Crisis!


世界が 世界が 知恵の輪で
グルグル ガチャガチャって
絡み合ってて フラクタル
ピンチなチャンス クライシス デンジャラス

The world is, the world is
Turning round and round, and cluttering as a puzzle ring
Be intertwined, fractal
A predicament kind of chance  Crisis   Dangerous


ある日目覚めたマジマジ 鏡をのぞいて呆然
あたまに生えてる感覚 隣りも周りも恥じらい

One day when I woke up, "No way! Seriously?"
I peered into the mirror and was overcome with surprise
The emerging feeling within my mind was shyness beside and around me.


どこからどこまで わたしなの あなたなの
何から何まで 変わっていけばいい

Wherever it's from and to whatever extent it goes
Is it me? Or is it you?
It's ok if you transform into anything and everything


宇宙が 宇宙が 闇鍋で
ぐつぐつ ぱちぱちって
はじけちゃってて おいしくて
安全神話 クライシス

The universe is, the universe is
Simmering and popping as a stew in the dark
Burst open! Delicious
Safety myth crisis


世界が 世界が 知恵の輪で
グルグル ガチャガチャって
絡み合ってて フラクタル
ピンチなチャンス クライシス デンジャラス

The world is, the world is
Turning round and round, and cluttering as a puzzle ring
Be intertwined, fractal
A predicament kind of chance  Crisis   Dangerous


その日驚きハピハピ 生徒も先生も全員
こころに感じた興奮 空気も視界も新鮮

That day, the student, the teacher, and everyone was surprised with happiness
I feel excitement felt in my heart
Even the atmosphere and my field of vision is fresh


いつからいつまで 昔なの 未来なの
ここから向こうへ 進化を続けよう

How long and until when? The past? The future?
From here on, let's continue progressing towards beyond!


歴史は 歴史は 主観的
マーブルな シャッフルして
気持ちしだい 楽しくて
先祖返りも パラダイス

History is, history is subjective
Do a marble shuffle
It's fun depending on the feeling The answer of the ancestors is also paradise


命の 命の 摩訶不思議
メープルな 優しさで
繋がっていく 運命の
螺旋な道は パラダイス ダイナミックス

Life's, Life's profound mystery
Connected by maple kindness
Fate's spiral path is paradise dynamics


変わってく 心と体を Yeah Yeah
楽しむくらいの気持ちで Wow Wow
受け入れちゃえばいいんじゃない? Aha Aha

A transformed heart and body Yeah Yeah
Isn't it fine to accept them Wow Wow
With feelings that are just about enjoyable? Aha Aha
危ない安全!紀元前!美味しいベンゼン!朝御膳!
ドゥリドゥリドゥーリ ドゥーリドゥッドゥッ ×4
変身済みだよ 丸ごとね!

Dangerous security! BC! Tasty benzene! Breakfast!
Douri douri douri Douri dou dou x4
The transformation is finished! It's complete!


魅力が 魅力が あふれてる
生きてる 喜びを
表わそうよ ハイテンションで
踊ればみんな カタルシス

Charm is, charm is overflowing
Reveal your living delight 
If you dance with high tension
Everyone will fall into catharsis


愉快な 愉快な 人生さ
とことん 楽しもって
宴の夜 続いてく
ラストはまだよ カタルシス クライマックス

A pleasant, A pleasant life
Is fun until the end
The night banquet continues
The last isn't here yet   Catharsis   Climax

3. ぱちぱち [pachipachi] = sound of something hot that bursts or popping

1. New Endings

This time, you will actually get to save certain characters from their fate, but that will depend on your choices. At least 3 new endings will be added into the game.

2. New Scenes In-Game and Extra Scenes

There will be new scenes added, as well as unlockable extra scenes. There will also be an extra chapter added, but it's more of an after-story.

3. Friendship Points

More choices will be added into the story, which affects the friendship between Colette and the other characters. Some of them will affect the ending, some will unlock new scenes, and they will also unlock new info about the character in the memo.

3. Character Info

Now you will know their last names. lol More information about a character can be unlocked by gaining friendship points.





4. CG Gallery and Music Room

A must-have for visual novels.

Collect all the CGs and background music! We'll also be throwing in some bonus tracks too.

5. Scene Library and Endings List

To help you keep track of the scenes and endings you might have missed out. You can replay scenes from the scene library.

6. Memo

Now you can re-read the excerpts from the Black Diary which you already encountered, Collect all the excerpts!

7. More CGs

Gotta have more to collect.

[Translation] Uta no Prince-sama Music - Character Scenes

I just started playing this game cause I'm on a rhythm game spree. The scenes were pretty short so I decided to translate them for fun. I still have to unlock and translate the other scenes so this is all I have as of the moment.

Edit: This game totally killed my arm. @_@
If you're having trouble beating the game, I suggest getting 1 or 2 other people to play with you. I brought my PSP with this game during a sleepover and we ended up clearing a lot of the hard and some pro songs by assigning 1-2 buttons each. lol It's also way more fun playing with friends than killing your fingers all alone.

Seriously. Natsuki's songs cause such muscle destruction.


Tokiya


Episode 1

"I've come to pick you up. Are the date preparations complete?"
"Fu.. It looks like it's perfect. I think it's wonderfully coordinated."
”Well then, let's head out."
"For today, leave everything to me. Be sure to follow me properly, ok?"
"I will most definitely let you have fun."

Episode 4

"Good morning. It's a great morning, you know."
"Come on, please get up. Dream time is about to start."
"We decided that we'd spend the first day of each month together, didn't we?"
"*chuckle* It looks like you've finally woken up."
"First, let's have some breakfast."
"If we spend the morning lazing around, let's go out somewhere for lunch, ok?"

Episode 7

"It's a refreshing morning isn't it?"
"I wonder if it feels that way because you're beside me."
"I mean, look. The world is also this beautiful."
"So there are mornings like these too, huh."
”It became like seeing a 9 colored rainbow in the sky and walking on it."
"Hm? Is it weird?"
"That's right. It might be a bit like a fairytale."
"It's a far-off evidence."
"You're here with me. That makes me irresistibly happy."


Natsuki



Episode 1

”Fufu. It's fun to play tag in the garden maze sometimes."
"Haru-chan, where are you~? I'll find you immediately~"
"Hm~ Could you be here perhaps~ Or here..."
"Ah, so you were here all along."
"Haru-chan, fo--und you. Fufu. Gyuu--"
"You shouldn't run, you know, captured princess."
"Be quiet and allow yourself to be loved by me, ok? *kiss*"

Episode 3

"1, 2, 3... 1, 2, 3..."
"Hehe. Waltz is fun, right?"
"And then tuuuurn!"
"Aah! I'm sorry! I didn't expect you to fall..."
"A... yeah. Your face is near, huh."
"Are you ok? Does it hurt? Sorry."
"A while ago, our lips touched for a moment, right? Hey, can we do it one more time?"
"I'll be more gentle this time. Please..."
"Thank you. *kiss*"
"Hehe. I made your heart beat fast, didn't I?"
"Come, let's dance the Southern Cross waltz."

Episode 4

"Hm? What's wrong? Are you afraid of thunder?"
"It's ok, I'm here beside you. I'll protect you, ok? So don't be afraid. Don't be afraid."
”Ah. That's right. I'll sing near your ear."
"If I do that, you won't be afraid, right?"
"Come on, get closer."
"Then listen to my song..."

Episode 7

"I see... So it's the moon tonight."
"Going out once in a while to watch is nice. On top of that, it's also quiet."
"I'm starting to have the delusion that I'm the only person in the world."
"No... I was alone from the start."
"Within that darkness, wasn't I always alone like this?"
"Then why am I feeling sad...?"
"Eversince he met her, Natsuki changed."
"No, perhaps the one who changed is me. For me to have feelings like this..."
"She's a really strange girl."
"Natsuki's feelings for her. Even I feel like I understand them a bit."

Otoya


Episode 1

"Ahh... The sky is radiant. What a nice weather..."
"It's a perfect day for a date, right? Hehe. Just the fine weather already makes me really happy."
"Don't you think so too? It's the best first day of the month, right?"
"Ah... But... having you beside me makes me happy the most. Shall we hold hands?"
"When I touch you like this, the moment when I feel your warmth is irrisistably lovely."
"If you feel happy, I don't need anything else..."
"It becomes something like that feeling."
"It might be a bit conceited of me."
"Hehe. But these are my honest feelings. If you feel the same way, I'll be happy."

We'll be compiling all the cases into one full version and putting it up for sale on other game stores. We'll also be moving on to other platforms as well such as Android. The series may be complete, but we'll still work on improving the game.

Of course, we have new games in store, but no details will be revealed for now except for the pre-released OST below. I hope you look forward to our next work!
