TRANSLATION NOTES:
[0:25] - 三分鼎足 (sanbun teisou) is a phrase that literally means "a kingdom that split into three each part is in conflict with each other." nowadays, it stands for people with equal power who are competing against each other from the same group or area. could represent how all the girls are produced by you, but are all competing against each other at the same time.
[1:33] - in the lyrics, the word "相手" (aite / partner or opponent) is pronounced "人" (hito / person) when the girls sing it aloud.
[2:29] - in the lyrics, the word "場所" (basho / place) is pronounced "ステージ" (suteeji / stage) when the girls sing it aloud.
[3:37] - in the lyrics, the word "宇宙" (uchuu / space) is pronounced "空" (sora / sky) when the girls sing it aloud.

[@HatsuHagane]

Hey, I love the video but correct me if I'm wrong. Does 鼎足 really pronounced as ていそう or it's actually ていそく?

[@imasloid]

@@HatsuHagane it's teishoku! (was a typo)

最初はアイマスらしい曲だなぁってだけだったけど、Trueまで行ってあの大歓声の中でこれ歌われたもんだから聴くだけで泣ける曲になりました

タイトル訳はFirst Timeが適しているかと
初と始で意味が異なります

初めて聞いたけど

[@kogatsukasa]

Awesome translation! I really love the song, thanks so much! 😇🙏

[@morimoons]

I heard Sasuke Haraguchi made this song when he was still in high school I am in shock😭

[@shira_yone]

I think this might be my favorite Opening song of Im@s (like the first song of a branch series), especially the instrumental.

[@iyxon]

Ah, I guess they sing 相手 as 人 too
Thanks for the translation!

[@chesoundscape]

It's kinda funny seeing sasuke haraguchi making something more commercial

[@oppaidekaiyabai]

IKR😭😭😭

[@moechiavellian]

no literally its driving me mad his range is crazy

[@kanyaanggrek6150]

IKR like i'm still not sure bro is the same guy that made hitomania

[@shredjward]

I like how Sasuke injected a little, easily recognizable trill in his style at 1:49 - you can hear his stylings come through more directly in the direction immediately following it imo, in the way it switches directions quickly, but that bend is kinda like a small wave hello

[@Soapduck_]

SASUKE HARAGUCI? ?? ????? NAW IM SHOCKED THIS IS SO NICE AND PEACEFUL

[@tembok713]

Thank your for your translation

[@dml00067]
