Thank you so much for the kind words and the comment! These were SO MUCH FUN! And oh, MDZS took away my sweet summer child status, I will always maintain! ;) The music in these were ridiculous! YES, everyone assumes if Kagami is there, that would mean Kuroko was there as well! 😛 The fact that Aomine is SUCH a tsundere is fantastic! And that he cares for Momoi? That Suwabe whisper NEEDS TO BE RECORDED AND SHARED IN THE DISCORD – I’m just saying. Midorima’s “care” for Takao is just….*sigh* It’s so wonderful – yeah, “we’re not friends” is the biggest LIE of this series so far. They’re literally boyfriends and “our situation” – they are a UNIT. I love it! Hanamiya’s Audio drama was SO bizarre and crazy – but I love how it has cemented my ship of him and Imayoshi, though! And Riko and Myaji being with THEM is a fever dream, but somehow it works! Kise is just Momoi’s BFF and a possible OT3 person alongside Aomine! 😛I love their friendship! Izuki’s audio drama really was a breath of fresh air, because it was the one I worried about but actually really enjoyed this one and we got Takao and Izuki in the same space interacting! Who would have guessed?! It was great, though! And OMG – I NEED to meet Midorima’s sister! I NEED to know this family dynamic! Also, Izuki’s VA playing Nigou is fantastic! Thanks for that info! Oooh, I can respect that ranking! Of course, I really love that these audio dramas were SO GOOD that any could be the best! 🙂Thank you so much for the comment and kind words – I am excited to listen to the songs and even more so to get to Season 3!

2023-03-17 14:27:36 +0000 UTCI LOVED these audio dramas! Oh Lorrrrdddd yeah, I will probably need to split the audio drama weeks, then! :P Hahaha! I will definitely have plenty of KNB things to look forward yet! I am SO thankful for your editing and I’m sorry you were burnt out from S1, but I’m glad that these were SO GOOD to help give you some inspiration. And MIDORIMAAAAAAAA! OMG! And ahahaha – YES! Taiga surfing was PERFECTION! I’m so glad I got this! These were soooo wonderful! But yessss, Takao’s – NOT FRIENDS? SURE, JAN! OMG – that audio drama SENT ME! I just loved this! And YES, I agree that Midorima has been so soft vs. tsundere at this point! And MIYAJI! YES! I’m glad I finally have his name remembered and not just the “pineapple drug deal man.” And Hanamiya getting his own audio drama? CRAZINESS! That one was wild! The dynamic with Imayoshi and Hanamiya, though!! I LOVE how they are so fake in this and like you said, that makes them PERFECT together! I love it! The ship sails strong, haha! And YESSSS, I was an AoMomo shipper before, but after this audio drama? It’s ON! I just LOVE THEM TOGETHER! And this Audio Drama was fantastic! And with Kise to be an OT3? I could take that! You are so right, too – I was expecting Izuki’s to just be “okay,” But it was still REALLY GOOD! And Takao with Izuki? It’s an interesting ship! Why not? The theme of Kuroko’s, hahaha! And Midorima finding Izuki superstitious is perfect! I would love to see them interact in the actual anime! I’m soooooo excited for Season 3, the character songs, all the extras for S3 and those audio dramasssss yessss! :) Thank you for all the help and hard work with translating these and for the kind words and comment!

2023-03-17 05:12:19 +0000 UTCFantastic reaction as always!!! "Are you saying that *seamen* is awesome, Kiyoshi?" Romania you are now no longer a sweet summer child 🤣 But that pun was great. Izuki would be proud! The moment the William Tell Overture started to play I burst out laughing. It honestly doesn't really fit for selling food at a beach side restaurant. Made me imagine the Lone Ranger, Tonto, and Silver were gonna make an appearance 🤣 I love Momoi and Aomine see Kagami and automatically assume Kuroko is there too. I nearly died at you saying Nigou won't get rabies if he bites Hanamiya!!! 🤣 Kiyoshi sees the truth: Aomine and Kagami get along really well 😂 Kagami is the sweetest. Going around asking about Momoi's hat 🥺 Kagami saying "I wonder about that" makes it seem like he knows Aomine better than Momoi...Aomine really is such a tsundere in this. The edits done in this first audio drama by Trukk were amazing! Kiyoshi is the Cat Whisperer! The cat managing to find the cat is definitely the most out there part of this story, even over Kagami's jumping power 😂 Kagami was so intent to feed Aomine his cooking 👀 Midorima purposefully buying and bringing Takao Scorpio's lucky items 🥺 He's so worried for his friend! *Midorima* complimenting Takao!!! 👀 Kuroko getting straight to the truth!!! 🥳 Also Kuroko knowing what the lucky item for Cancer is means he keeps up with Oha Asa. This entire audio drama with Midorima and Takao is basically Midorima taking care of Takao 🥺 And he dropped that much cash for Takao. And we don't see him doing this with any of his other teammates. "Not friends, my ass!" No they're not friends, they're *boy*friends! 🤣 "our situation" and "we" Midorima says. He really treats him and Takao as a single entity. Takao texting Riko so as he can help Midorima in return when Cancer is last is just adorable. And Takao has finally admitted that Midorima is his *dear* friend!!! "work with or outwit" You know immediately that Hanamiya would choose 'outwit'. I laughed at your reaction to Hanamiya's nice persona! And your comparison to him being like a fart for his handle name 😂 I loved you specifying that there would be no shipping between Hanamiya and Riko! Hanamiya, Riko, Imayoshi, and Miyaji all together is definitely a strange grouping. Feel like Imayoshi got brought in to handle Hanamiya. I just knew Imayoshi would be following Hanamiya. He's such a troll! "You can read my heart" just adding more for the ship. The moment they went into Maths stuff I'd immediately be out. Definitely not my strong point. The voice acting when they were being electrocuted was fantastic! Love Kise giving Momoi tips. But I love that he's the observant one and calls Momoi out! Aomine really getting dragged into things with the promise of food 😆 Kise and Momoi are definite BFFs! He's so great with picking out her clothes and helping her find stuff that suit her and are suitable for a date with Kuroko specifically. And you thought Aomine wouldn't give her a compliment. That little grumble may have just made me an AoMo shipper...Aomine knowing about both Kuroko and Momoi's eating habits feels very much just like he's known both a long time. But the compliment under his breath definitely felt more romantic than platonic. Honestly may need a clip of Suwabe complimenting under his breath 🥰 OnoKen's voice is very suited to soft romance 🥰😍 Aomine telling Kise he's not interested in him 🤣 Also interesting that Kise hasn't been overly dramatic in this audio drama like he was in previous audio dramas. The dramatic music change when Momoi got friendzoned whilst Kuroko goes off to have his date with Kagami 🤣 Aomine won her a teddy bear!!! 🥰 And Kise's just there watching those two go off bantering back and forth. He sees a lot! Hyuuga being all "I'm not going into a girly store with another guy!" 😆 Izuki has some sense in not asking Riko. His life would certainly be at risk. The fact that Midorima *actually* says it again for Takao!!! 😂 Izuki is using his Eagle Eye to avoid all the girls in the store! Takao helping and trying to look for the sparkly rainbow mascara is so sweet. But I love Midorima willing to ask at the top of his voice for it. He really doesn't have any qualms. But yes dependant on what ranking Cancer has, if it's low enough Midorima might have to wear it! Takao's all about having others join him on his dates with Midorima. Hyuuga and Izuki have known each other since Middle School. So yeah they have an excuse. Takao and Midorima really don't have that excuse. Midorima's too straightforward to get the puns. "Why is it necessary for you to even meet her?" your little sister needs to meet her future brother-in-law, Midorima! And now we can say that Midorima, Takao, Izuki and Mitobe are all big brothers! Obviously Midorima considers himself and Takao as one seeing as he bought Takao's lucky items for him! I feel for the Shuutoku senpai now that Midorima has been affected by Izuki! The bit I find the most hilarious about Izuki's conversation with Nigou is that Izuki's VA (Nojima Hirofumi) also voices Nigou. For my ranking of them I'd say: 1. Shopping trip with Momoi, Kise, and Aomine 2. Shopping with Izuki, Hyuuga, Takao, and Midorima 3. Helping out at the beach restaurant 4. Midorima getting Takao's lucky items 5. Fairy tale dream (as much as I loved Aomine's sound effects) 6. Escape room game Song reactions next week! 🥳 At least there's not just as many songs as there was in Season 1. Though crazy to think we'll be starting Season 3 soon!

2023-03-15 21:40:26 +0000 UTCThese were such a treat!!! Then the next sessions will probably be split into several weeks :P I mean you have seasons 1 vol 9, s2 vol 7-9, s3 vol 1-9 and 3 longer (almost an hour long each). MUAHAHAHAHA!! (+ there's a 10th anniversary special audio drama that's getting released later this month :=0) (also, the games, have some story parts with audio (I have translations for all the story parts, with or without audio) Especially one of those audio parts... hohoho!!) When I started to edit these, I was kinda still burnt out from that s1, and I was expecting these to be.. the same. But they weren't. I mean it's been so long since I first listened to these so I remember about none. And I felt like I was listening to these for the first time. And I wish I had someone to scream with about these, bc especially the ones with Midorima... wow. Knowing some from our discord discussions, soon as you said that you wish to see Taiga Surfing... ;D I'm so glad you like my A+ editing. I really wanted to get more such edits in these. I just wasn't hit by any inspiration for what to do for these. I kind of wanted to give pixel characters for the Hanamiya game world, but those pixel figures turned out to be more work than results so I scraped that idea off. It's not like Hanamiya's audio drama even deserves any extra effort anyways :P I so live for just the fact that Mitobe exists in these Audio dramas. I'm so glad that even he gets to be present,,, even tho he's lacking in VA... But no Koganei without Mitobe am I, right? :3 The Takao one though... Like Midotaka all the way. I was so screaming "NOT FRIENDS MY ASS! from the top of my lungs during this. (even though, this probably happens AFTER Takao started to think of them as friends, bc it's not like we have a lot of screentime about them outside the court) Like Midorima carrying Taao's lucky items with him?? uwu. I love that he's so soft and concerned for his bf. He's such a tsundere. Even though now that I think about it, he has started to become less of a tsundere and more of a shy guy, character development am I right?!?!? And then he offered to ride the bike for the day... If that's not a confession from Midorima then what is? Because I'm telling you that Midotaka content keeps getting better and better. And you see that they're fan favourites, because Midorima appeared in just as many Audio dramas in this set as Kuroko? They both were in vol 1 and 3. While Kuroko was also in Momoi's and Midorima was in Izuki's. Also, this was my favourite no doubt about it. But then again I'm pretty vocal about them being my fav ship as well. Hanamiya's Audio drama was wild. Like personally. I love Miyaji, he's one of my favourite background characters. Shuutoku is also one of my fav teams because it has the "scary upperclassmen" yet they (kinda) baby Midorima. (if you read between the lines during the first match with them. Like they "let Midoima has his will 3 times a day", and such) Also as said in Izuki's drama, Miyaji the discount light Yagami, the future underground pineapple dealer, is the "scariest" of their senpais. It's just so cute to me. And then he's an idol fan as we see in Hanamiya's audio drama. And as fan of several anime characters, i can relate to idol fans a lot :> Then there was Hanamiya and Imayohsi... whoah. The DYNAMIC!?!? I just love how Hanamiya "pretends to be very polite and nice but is actually a scumbag that hates everything" and Imayohsi was like "pretends to be all happy-go-lucky and social butterfly, but actually enjoys annoying that one specific person" They're both so FAKE and that's why they fit together. And Imayoshi, of course, being the one with the upper hand on his dear Kohai and always one step ahead. The Momoi audio drama really just went and turned me into an Aomomo shipper. I was always more on the "they're like siblings" route, but not after this one... This drama really went like "there are so many Kuroko x Momoi shippers and not enough Aomine x Momoi stuff, so let's fix that" Momoi x Kise friendship tho?? It's so great. I do adore tho, how this could actually be an OT3. and last but not least THE IZUKI ONE? I was not expecting half of the stuff I got from that. I thought it was gonna be like "puns and stuff" cool, I guess. NO! Midotaka just hijacked the whole thing like a hammer. Personally, I'm not really a huge x Izuki shipper, but they have quite a huge fanbase, so I'm not complaining AT ALL about how they got a double date with midotaka. Then we also can't forget Takao just flirting with Izuki. Like they're not my ship either, BUT I know people who ship it and... It's quite fun to read after all the midotaka fanfics have been read through. Takao just outright called Izuki handsome and went all pickup lines with "Does your sister look like you? Then she must be a bautyl" and I'm like *arrow through the heart* That does also fit very well into a midotaka pining fic, where Midorima is internally all "he's not into me and it hurts" even tho in reality Takao is just flirting with Izuki because he thinks that Midorima will never like him and he believes that by flirting with others he will be able to move on from his crush. Just saying... What I do need though. Is ANY form of fan content where Midorima genuinely believes that Izuki can see the future. And because Midorima believes in supernatural stuff all the time, he would take it all very seriously and that would be just so cute. Midorima is just such a comfort character for me I cannot. Then the character songs!!!! and then the next season!! and the next set of audio dramas!!! which you're not ready for. I mean, I'm not sure if they're better than these by much. because how much can you even improve on these??? But they're at the same level of greatness at least. I can't wait for next week! See ya then! (or in discord)
