† 魔導会議 - Monologue Garden

 

皆様、ご機嫌いかがだろうか？[How is everyone doing?]

私はというと、[I would say]
パワーを付ける為に [In order to gain power]
血の滴るステーキを食しながら[we shall eat lots of steak dripping with chi [*blood]
魔導書図像師Taquya氏と魔導会議をしてきた。[according to the rare magic book of Taquya]



手前に見える瓶ビールは、[Bottled in a visible background...]
チェコへ旅に行っていたTaquya氏のお土産チェコビールである。[Taquya had gone on a trip and brought Czech Republic beer back as a souvenir.]
飲めや歌えや？で、
深夜丑三つ時まで、魔導制作について論議が交わされたのであった。[Until witching hour tonight, the discussion of the creation of magic was held.]

ちなみに、「血の滴る」とは言っているが、それは表現イメージで、[By the way, the reference to "dripping with blood" is referred to the image. The meat had problems, so I say properly bake this... (*at first I thought it was referencing to sauce)]
最近、生肉問題が発生しているので
ちゃんとジュウジュウ！と焼いてます。 (´｡｀)


次号魔導書お楽しみにしておいてほしいね。[I hope you keep looking forward to the next edition of magi...]
腐腐腐・・・[fu fu fu]
血の滴るようなレアな写真をお届けできるだろう。[If I could deliver such a rare picture of forming blood (I have no idea what this mean, referring to the  picture again?]

He is talking about his steak, reference to the photo.  

Package!

Today I got a package in the mail from Tomo! 

Did you know I actually never had the rose cross knee high socks from Moitie in blue? I had the other two colors but not this. Tomo luckily found them hiding in the Moitie shop, which is strange since they are so old! They are some of my favorite Moitie socks. They do not have lace on them but they are still very nice. The print is actually embroidered in  to the socks, which I find pretty rare for Moitie. 

 Arigatou, Tomo-chan!

 She also sent me two other small and cute things!

 あなたが青色でMoitieからのクロス膝の高さの靴下をバラていた、実際には決して私を知っていましたか？私は他の二つの色ではなく、このしていた。トモは幸運にも、彼らがそう古いですので、奇妙なMoitieショップの中に隠れて発見！彼らは私の好きなMoitieソックスの一部です。彼らはそれらのレースを持っていないが、彼らはまだ非常にいいです。印刷は、実際に私はかなりMoitieは珍しい見つける靴下、に刺繍されています。

ありがとう、トモちゃん！

Tomo sent me this small little bear bag. It is really cute, though I do not know what I will work it with. I could turn Moitie into sweet, like I do sometimes, ahaha. It has a shoulder strap, a very long one too! The bag is plush and soft. It actually can hold quite a bit too!

トモは、私は、この小さな小さなクマの袋を送った。私はそれをして動作するかわからないけど、本当にかわいいです。私は、時々あはを行うように私は、甘いにMoitieを回すことができます。これは、ショルダーストラップも非常に長い一しています！袋は豪華なソフトです。これは、実際にもかなりを保持することができます！ 

 

 The last thing Tomo sent me is this pen! I actually enjoy this character, he is quite cute and fun. I will use this pen. Thank you, Tomo!

FAQ part.5

PART 5 

I have been doing this FAQ series for five months now; each one is posted on the 6th. Here is part five with your questions!

Lately people have been asking me "Maga, why do you not have a FC2 blog?"

*FC2 is the site Mana uses to blog on.

I actually prefer blogger, and since having this account since 2000 I don't want to leave it!

I. Maga, how did you get into Mana? 

                Maga、どのようにマナに入るのですか？

IA. How did I get into Mana... Back when I was in college in Japan, a friend of mine came up to me and had a flier for a band called "Girl'e". She knew I really liked Jrock,  I was a huge XJapan fan, so she suggested I go see them. She said she had seen them before and they were quite a good band. I took the flier then nodded and accepted it. A few days later, I dressed up in my full visual kei gear to go see their concert. I got there a bit late, so I was near the back. Though, when I heard their music and saw Mana, I just realized and felt something weird. From that, I saw a few more of his Girl'e concerts, then soon Malice Mizer then Moi dix Mois.

II.Maga, what is your favorite Moitie piece you own?  

Magaは、あなたが所有しているお気に入りのMoitieの作品は何ですか？

IIA. My favorite Moitie piece I own is either my Moitie candles or the blue rose I got from Mana in 2008. Moitie candles are very rare and I love mine. 

III. Maga, you have a girlfriend, correct? What is her name?  

Magaは、正しい、ガールフレンドがありますか？彼女の名前は何ですか？

IIIA. Yes, I have a girlfriend and I love her very much. I have actually known her since college, so a very long time! I met her at Moi dix Mois concert in 2007. She isn't that big of a fan of Mana but her friends convinced her into going and we met there. Her name is Tooya. We are planning to get married sometime soon. 

IIII.Maga, do you usually wear Moitie everyday or do you wear 'normal' clothing?

 Magaは、通常Moitie毎日を着用し、又は、通常の服を着るか？

IIIIA. It depends what I am doing. On the weekends Ill usually wear something more toned down, like a Holy Queen skirt with a cutsew and flats. If I am going out somewhere, I dress up fully in EGL or EGA. When I'm shopping, ill usually just wear my Moitie pants with Moitie platforms, cutsew, etc. Very causal.

V.Maga, have you really been to all of Moi dix Mois' concerts?

VA. Yes,  I have been to all of their concerts since the band was formed. I never miss an event or a concert. I went to all of their Europe 2007 tours too. that was actually a nice experience for me because I had never been to places like Finland. I also saw them at the Gothic Trekken too, yes. 

Today I am stopping at five questions. I hope you will all tune in for next month too!

If you have any questions, send them to moidixmoist@yahoo.com.

† Christon Cafe is one of my favorite places to visit when I visit Japan. Mana tends to go there a lot, for the events and on his own time. The Christon Cafe is a gothic lolita and vampire mixed theme place. Their food ranges from eyeball treats to vampire rolls. 

Christon Cafe is a very fun place to go. When ever I go, I attend wearing full Moitie and the cute waitresses have remembered who I am. They always smile and wave at me.

Angels line the outside railings and inside of the cafe. Crosses, large chandlers and  more "gothic like" features are applied around the cafe. 

†キリストンカフェカフェは、私が日本を訪問するとき訪問する私の好きな場所のひとつです。 Manaはイベントや自分自身の時間で、にも、いろいろな移動する傾向がある。キリストンカフェカフェは、ゴシックロリータ、吸血鬼混合テーマの場所です。からは、眼球その食品の範囲は、ロールを吸血鬼に扱います。キリストンカフェカフェに行くことは非常に楽しい場所です。私が行くときまで、私は完全なMoitie可愛いウェイトレスが私が誰だか覚えて着て参加しています。彼らはいつも笑顔で私と私の波。カフェの中の天使たちラインの外側の手すり。十字架、大規模なチャンドラーズと"ゴシックのように"の詳細は、機能はカフェの周りに適用されます。
