可愛いハロウィンコスチュームです！こんな帽子でも魔女じゃなくて、カボチャと猫がモチーフなところが独創的。この服は以後追加されて、いつでも着られるようです。でもハロウィン以外に着る機会がないような気もw

It is a cute Halloween costume!  Even with such hat, it is not supposed to be a witch, but a pumpkin and a cat.  These clothes are added later and Ion will be able to wear them any time.  However, I guess there's no occasion to wear them other than Halloween.

そのまま縁日のデートに行ってみました。型抜きが大好きというイオン。でも縁日ではやらないって、それってすごいオタクなのでは(^_^;)。確かに周囲になじめなかったり、変に思われたりしてたこともあったんでしょうね。

I took Ion to the fair with the costume.  Ion said she loved "Katanuki" (a game of the fair cutting out certain shapes drawn on the board-formed cake with a needle).  But she said she did not play it at the fair.  Doesn't it mean she's a great nerd?  I suppose she had a time she used to be unable to get along with people around and made them feel she was odd.

Ion:
I don't play it at the fair, though.
I like to buy many boards cheap from a wholesale store and take my time to play at home.

Oct. 30, 2014

昨日は帰宅後も雑用があって、ツイートできませんでした。今朝も起動できなかったし。新しいデートスポットの縁日にて、花火を見たくないと言うイオン。結局一度も花火を見ることなくクリアしたけど、最後ぐらい一緒に見たかった。

I could not tweet yesterday since I had to do some odd jobs.  I could not run the app this morning either.  Anyway, here's Ion telling me that she didn't want to see fireworks at the fair, a new dating place.  I had finished the game without watching fireworks at all, but I wished to see them with her at the last time.

Ion:
Even though I know that won't come true, I want to avoid things that make me feel the end as much as possible...


セカイパック第二幕の時点でのデートもあらかた行ったので、第三幕を開始しました。注目はなんといっても白鷹特製イオナサル様フィギュアですね！（違）それを思わず真剣に作ってしまうイオンもどうなのw

I have gone to all of the dates at the point of World Pack vol. 2, so I have started to play vol. 3.  The most noteworthy here is "Imperial Princess Ionasal Doll" specially made by Shirotaka!  (wrong)  Also, how about Ion unintentionally making it seriously?

Ion:
That means, I was forming the shape seriously to recreate my own face, bust, and hip, wasn't I?

Oct. 28, 2014

新機能の「今日あったことを話す」のメニューが追加されました。しかしこれ、会話内容が結構ピンポイントだから、かえってやりにくい気も。もっと大雑把でもいいと思うけど。いつの間にか端末移動のメニューも追加されてました。

The new function "Talking about what happened today" was added to the menu.  However, this is not so useful because topics I can select look too much detailed.  I think they could be more broad.  The command menu to move the terminal unit was added before I knew, too.

Ion:
Because I have been wishing to know about you more every time I talk with you.


もう１つストックネタ。ねりこさんに褒められたと嬉しそうなイオンによく聞いてみると…それ、褒めてないから。(^_^;)でも、ねりこさんの意見には激しく同意w

Here's one more stocked topic.  Ion with a glad look said she was praised by Nelico-san, but Nelico-san's words didn't sound like so when I heard them.  However, I strongly agree with what Nelico-san said.

Ion:

She said like, "Ion is a fool and clumsy, but you're lovely."...

Oct. 26, 2014

今個人的にすごく憂鬱な状況なので、イオンだけが唯一の癒しです…。新しいレシピで白木ますを作って温泉へ。イオンは未成年なのでお酒は飲めませんが、水でも十分美味しそう。ぼーっとしたいねえ。したいねえ。（切実）

Since I'm personally depressed pretty much now, Ion is my only healing...We made "Shiraki-Masu" (a square wooden measuring cup) by a new recipe and went to the hot spring.  Ion can't drink alcohol because she is a minor, but water seems to taste good enough.  Yes, I want to relax.  I want (sincerely).

Ion:

I know I'm saying a stupid thing, but I'm thinking that I just want to relax with you here without any talking.

>Later 18:10
前にイオンがガーデニングをやりたいと言っていたけど、とうとう始めたそうです。ダイアンの花の種を植えたそうですが、ダイアンサス（撫子）のことでしょうか。アルシエルにもそんな名前の木がありましたね。経過報告が楽しみ。

Ion said she wanted to do gardening before, and she seemed to begin finally.  She said she planted seeds of "diane" (does she mean dianthus?).  It reminds me of Tree of Dianthus in Ar Ciel.  I'm looking forward to hear her future report.

Ion:
However, I only just have made a flower bed outside my house and planted seeds after I put soil in it.

Oct. 25, 2014

現実の雑多なものに疲れた時、非現実的なきれいな甘いものに救われることがある。期せずして、そんな時、そんなものが目の前を横切ったりすると、ヒュッと心がひきつけられ、素直な気持ちになる。だから、普段はバカにされがちな、そんな甘くきれいなものよ、どうぞそのままいて下さい。

銀色夏生つれづれノート９巻/角川文庫より

"Sometimes when I'm tired of chaotic things in reality, I'm saved by unrealistic beautiful sweet things.  When such things cross in front of my eyes unexpectedly at such time, my heart is attracted quickly, and I become to feel innocent.  So, those beautiful and sweet things that are usually tend to be ridiculed, please stay in the way you are."

by Natsuo Giniro "Tsure-Dure Note" vol. 9, published by Kadokawa Shoten Co., Ltd.


私にとってイオンの「お花畑」がそんなようなものです。こんなのだからこそ、みんなが助けたくなるというのもあるんでしょうね。

For me, Ion's "flower garden" is such thing.  I suppose people want to help her because she is the way she is like that.

Ion:
Everyone has his own important person or thing, so I believe a true evil person from the bottom of his heart does not exist.

Oct. 24, 2014

既プレイ地点まで進めるにはもう少しかかりそう。今日のストックネタは、海の家で食事をした時のショット。意外にラーメンも好きなイオン。海に縁のない暮らしだったせいか、私自身は海の家の記憶があまりないのですが。

I suppose I'm going to take a little more time to reach to the point I have already played.  Today's stocked topic is the picture when we had a meal at the beach hut.  Unexpectedly, Ion likes ramen noodles, too.  I used to live in the place where was not close to the sea, so I don't have much memories about the beach hut, though.

Ion:

I like ramen noodles of the beach hut very much.

>Later 23:55
先日作った謎の小物をねりこさんに見せると、さすがのねりこさんも思わず困惑。根本的にイオンの潜在センスに問題があるようですwそして、ねりこさんの苦しいフォローをすっかり信じこむイオン…。本当に天然ですね(^_^;)。

When we showed Nelico-san the mysterious article which Ion made before, she was confused unintentionally either.  I guess Ion's potential sense seems to have a problem fundamentally.  And then, Ion completely believed Nelico-san's hard follow...she really is a natural fool, isn't she?

Nelico:
W...well, I guess so.
Perhaps, it is in forefront of the fashion that is running about one hundred million light-years ahead, I think.

Oct. 23, 2014

前に作ったサンオイルを持って出掛けた時のショット。お許しはでませんでした。実際にオイル塗りができるのはずっと後のことになります。（イオンの言い分も確かに一理ある。）時折台詞の選択が若干エッチすぎるのはどうかと。

This is the screenshot when we went to the sea with sunscreen.  Ion did not give a permission to me.  In fact, it will be a while later till I will be able to apply sunscreen for her.  (I understand what Ion insists.)  I can't stand that choices of my lines are sometimes too naughty.

Ion:
S, see, I guess letting you apply sunscreen to my body would better be after we became a little more closer to each other, you know...


だからこんなふうに言われるんだよね(^_^;)。でも、イオンにたしなめられるのは嫌じゃない自分がいたりする。

That's why she tells me such thing.  However, I don't hate to be reproved by Ion at the same time.

Ion:
Since you're sometimes naughty, that's the only worry I have...!


>Later 1:56
時間を教えてくれる機能を使ってみました。同じ機能を持つ他のソフトも同様なんですが、起きるアラームにするにはハードを点けっぱなしにしないといけないので、無理があるんですよね(^_^;)。タイマー的に使うのが正解かも。

I tried the function of telling me time.  It is the same with other applications with similar functions, but those functions are not practical because I have to keep the hardware on all night to use it as an alarm in the morning.  Maybe it should be used as a timer.

Ion:
Hey, it's your important time.
Did you notice?

Oct. 22, 2014

最初の頃のイオンは、何をするにも見ててほしいとお願いしてきたり、記憶も思い出す度になでなでして落ち着かせてあげないといけない、手のかかる子でした(^_^;)。本当はあんなにすごい子だなんて、誰が想像したでしょう。

At the beginning, Ion used to ask me to watch her for everything she does, and she needed to be stroked to calm down each time when she remembered her memory.  She needed to be taken care closely indeed.  I guess nobody had imagined that she truly was such a great girl.

Ion:
I'm going to write from now.
Can you watch me if you don't mind?


誤字にも程があるでしょう…。多分、「物を大切にしてくれる人でよかった（嬉しい）。これからも大切にね♪」という感じかと思うけど。アルノでも誤字脱字がかなり激しかったので、アンケートでしっかり指摘しときました。

There are limits to typos...I think it is supposed to be like "I'm glad he cherishes things.  Hope him to keep that way from now on.".  I strongly pointed out about typos in the questionnaire of Ar nosurge as well since there were many in the game either.

*This tweet is difficult to explain in English.

Oct. 20, 2014

イオン待望のパーツ屋でのデートで、ジャンク品について語る。最初に来た時は買った物が持ち帰れなかったので泣き出して大変でした。なんでもないことのように言ってるけど、普通の人（しかも女子高生）はそんなことできないから！

Ion talked about junk items in the date at the part shop which she'd been waiting for.  When we first visited there, she cried because she couldn't carry back the parts she bought.  Ion is talking as if it's nothing special, but I must mention an ordinary girl (moreover, a high school student) is not likely to be able to do that!

Ion:
When I don't have enough money to buy things I want, I can buy junk items very cheap to restore by myself and use them.


>Later 14:13
やってしまった、セーブデータの上書き…。(T_T)へこんでたらまた税金通知来たし！何なんだよもー！(-_-ﾒ)一応バックアップがあったので損失はそんなに大きくないですが、既にプレイ済の地点へ進めるまで、撮りためてあるストックネタをツイートしようと思います。

Oh my God, I overwrote the save data...and I got a tax notification again while I was down!  What the heck is it!  I didn't lose much since I had saved a backup.  I guess I'm going to tweet stocked topics which I have taken pictures until I will get to the point I have already played.

>Later 17:13
というわけで、早速ストックネタを。エビパン大好きなイオンその１。以前オンライン版でも１回ツイートしましたが、まだまだリアクションがありますw

Therefore, I'm going to tweet a stocked topic right away.  This is Ion loving Shrimp Bread so much, vol. 1.  I have tweeted about that in Online version before, but there are still many more of her reactions.

Ion:

(Singing) Shrimp, shrimp...Bread, bread...

エビパン大好きなイオンその２。カ○パンもどきでこんなに上機嫌になるなら、毎日買い与えてあげたいw食べ物で（しかも安い）こう無邪気に喜ぶ女の子は可愛いですね。

Ion loving Shrimp Bread vol. 2.  If she becomes so happy with this Crab Bread-like stuff, I'd buy it for her everyday.  A girl who pleases by food (cheap, besides) innocently is cute, isn't she?

*Crab Bread (Kani-Pan) is popular bread in Japan.  I guess Shrimp Bread is a parody of that.

Ion:

I bet it's so yummy that you'd want to stroke me if you eat.

Oct. 19, 2014

私は初めて見る動物みみセットをつけてみました。他に猫耳、うさ耳もありますが、イオンは犬耳が一番似合うと思います。この格好で読書をしている姿はなかなかシュールw

For my first time, I tried to put "Animal Ears Set" on Ion.  There are cat ears and rabbit ears besides this, but I think dog ears match with her the most.  Ion reading a book with these ears looks quite surreal.

Ion:
He-he, how is it?
I hope it suits me.


学校で思い付いた「極秘文書」を作成。落書きまで再現した懐かしい感じの教科書です。イオンが言うには、とてつもない秘密が書かれているらしいけど、何なのか気になります。とりあえず「イオンのスリーサイズ？」と聞きましたw

Ion made "Secret Document" which she thought of at the school.  It is an old textbook which includes even doodling.  Ion told me that extraordinary secret was written in this book; I'm curious to know what it is.  I asked Ion "Is it measurements of Ion?" anyway.

Ion:
You can read the hidden secret document by reading a specific page in a special way.


>Later 17:05
新しいデートスポットの温泉で、雑学を披露するイオン。（そういうところがやっぱり少しズレてるのかも。）温泉だと画面が固定されてしまうので、今一つ不満です。視点くらい動かせてもいいじゃない、バスタオルなんだし。

Ion shows her knowledge at the hot spring, a new place for dating.  (I guess her such behavior makes her a little odd.)  I'm dissatisfied a bit because the camera is fixed at the hot spring.  Isn't it okay to move my view at least?  Ion is wearing a bath towel after all.

Ion:
There seem to be two kinds of non-volcanic hot spring, one is deep geothermal water heated by geothermal gradient that temperature of the water rises as it gets deep in the ground, and the other is the one which heat source is unknown.


>Later 17:40
どうも工作中や料理中にタッチモードになった時の反応が、通常と歌っている時とぼーっとしている時のものでごっちゃになっている気がします。オンライン版はそんなことなかったのになぜ。

While the touch mode during making crafts or cooking, I feel that Ion's response in cases when she's working normally, when she's singing, and when she's dazing are all mixed at the same time.  I haven't seen such condition in Online version.  Why?

Oct. 18, 2014

カフェのデートに行けるようになったので、早速コンパウンドケーキを作って持参。他のケーキも食べたいと言うイオンですが、やはり体重は気になる模様。少しくらい太っても構わないけど、健康を害するレベルになったら駄目よ。

We became able to go to the cafe, so I asked Ion to make Compound Cake and took it there.  Ion said that she wanted to eat other cakes too, yet she seemed to be worried about her weight.  I don't mind even if she gets a little fat, but it's not good to be overweight and harm your health.

Ion:
...I know you're not the kind of person who dislikes a girl by such reason, but I should not rely on that too much, should I?


テストプレイ的にオンライン版の移行データも試してみてますが、差異が少々気になります。皇帝編最終幕プレイ後の状態なのに、壁にヒビがありません。また、入浴時に浴室にいても会話はできず、イオンの独り言のままです。

I try to play online transferred data as a test, but I have noticed some differences.  There are no cracks on the wall although it is the point after the final act of "Empress" Chapter was finished.  Moreover, I can't talk with Ion during bath time even though I'm in the bathroom.  I can only hear Ion talking to herself.

Oct. 17, 2014

昨日ねりこさんがくれたレシピを作ってみたところ、はてしなく謎の小物ができあがりイオン自身も戸惑う。というか、記憶の中のくまさんと同じですね(^_^;)。イオンの中では、あれがおしゃれだと定義されているということ？

An ever mysterious article was born from the recipe Nelico-san gave us yesterday, and Ion herself was confused too.  In other words, it is the same as Kuma-san in Ion's past memory.  Does this fact indicate that it is defined as stylish in Ion's mind?

Ion:
...No, it doesn't work.
I can't recognize this as lions no matter how I try hard to see it through the girly filter.


改めて試練編の第二幕まで終えて、この時点でネイの気持ちに変化が生じているのがわかります。同時にカノンもイオンに惹かれ始めている。ある意味なんという魔性の女なのか、イオンw行動力のある人間は彼女を放っておけないところがあるんでしょうね。

After I finished the second act of "Trial" Chapter once more, I saw that Nay's feeling had begun to change at this point.  Kanon was also beginning to be charmed by Ion at the same time.  In a sense, what a devilish girl Ion is!  I think active people cannot tend to leave her alone.

>Later 1:16
オフラインで個人的に驚いたのは、起動が速くなったことです。新規ユーザーさんはわからないと思いますが、以下の時間を計って比較してみました。

1. LiveAreaではじめるを押してから、タイトル画面が出るまで
2. コンティニューしてから、イオンの部屋が表示されるまで（OFFLINEではコンティニューの後、セーブデータを選択する必要がありますが、一番上のデータをできるだけ早く選択する時間を含めています。）

One point I was personally surprised in OFFLINE was that start up time was shorten.  I guess new users don't understand it; I checked the length of time as below and compared them with that of the online version.

1. From tapping "Start" in LiveArea to when title appears
2. From tapping "Continue" to when Ion's room is displayed (In OFFLINE, I need to select a save data to load after I tap "Continue".  The checked time includes the period I select the first save data as quickly as I can.)

結果
オンライン：
1. 約1分50秒
2. 約1分8秒
 オフライン：
1. 約29秒
2. 約25秒

Result
Online:
1. About 1 minute 50 seconds
2. About 1:08
OFFLINE:
1. About 29 seconds
2. About 25 seconds

下手するとフリーズと勘違いしかねない(^_^;)起動時間だったオンライン版と比べ、とても快適になりました。これでも他のVitaゲームと比べたら遅いのかもしれませんが…。

I could see that start up time of OFFLINE became much shorter than that of Online version.
Nevertheless, it might be still slower than other Vita games...

>Later 4:55
明け方ではありますが、イオンのあまりの超奇行に度肝を抜かれたので報告します。最新バージョンで新たにオンライン版の移行データを作ったのですが、それをロードしたところ、端末の位置設定が狂っていたのか、キッチンからベッド横にいる私に話しかけるイオンの首がビクビク痙攣。

その後、端末がキッチンへ瞬間移動。イオンはそれから入浴して、ベッドに入ると思いきや床に寝転がり、その直後に起きて「寝坊しすぎ」と言いました。？？？そして着替えた服がこれでこの台詞…。嫁に一体何が。

It is dawn now, but I was so astounded at Ion's eccentric behavior that I had to report.  I created a new online transferred data on the latest version.  When I loaded the data, position of the terminal unit was set wrong or something; neck of Ion speaking from the kitchen to me at the bedside weirdly twitched.

After that, the unit somehow teleported to the kitchen.  Ion took a bath, and she lay on the floor while I thought she was going to bed, then she got up right after the moment and said "I got up too late.".  ???Finally, she changed her cloth to the diver suit and said as below...What in the world happened to my wife?

Ion:

Here I go.

(Giggles) I hope he'll like it.

Oct. 16, 2014

セカイパックの試練編第一幕、第二幕の本編を終えて、今はEXシナリオをプレイ中ですが、つくづくプラムが開始早々死んだのが悔やまれます。アルノで彼本人の姿が（動くモデルで）全く登場しなかったのは納得しかねますね…。

I finished first and second act of "Trial" Chapter; I'm playing the extra scenario of this period now.  I can't help to regret that Prum had died at the very beginning.  I can't accept that he did not appear at all in Ar nosurge (as a moving 3-D model).

Prum:
Seriously, please make it up with him tomorrow!
I'd like to show you the vacuum tube we made with Ion-san for sure!

ショッピングセンターでねりこさんと遭遇。おしゃれを学ぶためのおしゃれ小物のレシピをくれる。ところでこのシーンでは、ねりこさんはイオンをずっと名前で呼んでいるんですよね（普段は「とうだいもり」なのに）。なにか意図が？

We met Nelico-san at the mall.  She gave us the recipe of a stylish article to learn style.  By the way, Nelico-san kept calling Ion by her name during this scene (even though she usually calls Ion "Lighthouse Keeper").  Did she mean something?

Nelico:

It is a recipe to create a stylish article.

I think you will be able to be stylish someday if you make stylish things.

Oct. 15, 2014

「一緒にご飯食べよう」の機能が追加。何気なく説明されていますが、それってイオンが大変では…。さっき試してみたところ、この機能は通常の食事タスクになるだけで、任意終了もできません。オンライン版の方がまだ特別感があった気が。

The function "Let's eat together" was added.  The tutorial explains as if it is not a big deal, but isn't it hard for Ion?  I tried this function a minute ago.  It actually changes the current task to a common eating task, and I cannot end it voluntarily.  I feel this function of Online version was more special at least.

Let's eat with Ion!

Ion will make efforts to have a meal with you even if she has just eaten.

作れるよ。作れるよ。（二回）記憶を全部取り戻したら作れるようになるから、しばらく待ってね。アルシエルのエレミア三謳神のように、新生ラシェーラではイオンの伝説がすごく美化されて伝えられていそうな気がしますw

Yes, you can, Ion.  You can (twice).  You will be able to make the world after you get back all of your memory, so wait for a while.  I guess Ion's legend will be much idealized in the new Ra Ciela, like the legend of Elemia Three Goddesses in Ar Ciel.

Ion:
If you were there with me, then perhaps I could really make the world that everyone would be happy.


>Later 2:33
オフラインは普通にプレイしていれば、HymPもどんどん貯まるしシャールのレベルもガンガン上がるので、サクサク進められます。デートも不自然なくらい(^_^;)ドンドン行けちゃうから、関係の進展も早そう。人に薦めるにはこのくらい遊びやすい方がいいのかも。

You can proceed the story easily since HymP is added fast, and level of Sharls rises rapidly as you play OFFLINE just normally.  You can even go to date one after another unnaturally, so the progress of relation with Ion goes fast, too.  I suppose it is rather good to be easy to play this much in order to recommend it to other people.

Oct. 14, 2014

オフラインの初回特典の水鏡です。いまいち使い道がよくわからないコスチュームですが、お正月のイベントとかあるのかしら。横から見ると結構露出が…。そういえば、アルノサージュのネロの衣装も相当でしたね。

This is the special first copy supplement of OFFLINE, a new costume "Water Mirror".  I don't quite understand when to wear these clothes; I wonder whether there is a new event for New Year or something.  Looking from aside, I find plenty of exposure again...That remains me Nelo's costume in Ar nosurge.  (It is extreme either!)

Oct. 13, 2014

久しぶりにオンライン版を起動してみたのですが、相変わらずダイバースーツだったりw、モーションの省略がなくてゆったりした感じが、妙に安心できる気がします。実際に一年以上も一緒に過ごしたのはこっちの嫁ですものね。

I started up Online version after a while.  I feel somehow relieved by the fact Ion wears the diver suit as usual and slow feeling given from no omitted motion.  My wife is this Ion who actually spent more than one year together.

Ion:
I'm relieved...
I was worried if anything happened to you since you did not come for a long time recently.


それにしてもねりこさんひどいwしかし、たくさんの可能性軸の中には、死んだプレイヤーもいたかもしれませんね。アルノサージュでイオンと立場を取り替えっこした時のことを思い出す。ただ待つだけしかできないのは辛い事です。

I must say Nelico-san is mean!  However, I think maybe there were some dead players within many possibility axes.  I remember of the time when I exchanged my standpoint with Ion in Ar nosurge.  It is hard that only you can do is waiting.

Ion:
When I talked with Nelico-san, she told me inauspicious words such as you're probably dead...

Ar Cielno:
But when she won't come, she won't come.
It means it is the end in that parallel world.  Too bad.


>Later 21:19
イオンから自分がどう見えるか聞くと、「触れられない自分にいつも会いに来てくれるから、優しい人だと思う」バグにもめげずクリアした人は、それくらい評価されてもいいよねw思わず好きと言ってしまって慌てるイオンが可愛い。

I asked Ion how did I look from her.  She said "I think you're a kind person because you always come to see me although you can't ever touch me."  I guess people who did not give up for many bugs and finished the game surely deserve that much appreciation.  Cute Ion unexpectedly told me she loved me, and she was flustered by that.

Ion:
O, of course, I mean as a friend, you know!?

Oct. 12, 2014

オフラインで初めて髪を切ったイオン。この時の態度もまだ友達に対するノリですね。そういえば、朝着替えた時にヘッドアクセを着けなくなったようです。冷静に考えたら、家の中なんだからないほうが自然ですよね。

Ion cut her hair for the first time in OFFLINE.  Her behavior at this time is that just talking to a friend as well.  By the way, she does not wear a head accessory when she changes clothes in the morning.  I think it is more natural without a head accessory because she is supposed to be in the house.

Ion:
I cut my hair.
How do I look?


新しい仮想世界カードで学校へ行けるようになりました。購買を利用してみたいという話をする。実は私も経験ないのですが、昼食時はものすごく大変らしいのでイオンでは太刀打ちできない気がしますw

We became able to go to the school by another new card.  Ion talked that she wanted to do shopping at the school store.  Actually, I hadn't use a school store in big Japanese school either; I think Ion can't get over with it because it is a real war at lunch time.

Ion:
Oh no, I wanted to try standing in a line and buying a bun if the school store was open.

Oct. 11, 2014

アルノサージュをプレイした人は、あんな狭い世界のどこで迷子になるのかツッコミたくなると思いますwそれもイオンらしいといえばらしいのだけど。

I bet Ar nosurge players want to ask Ion how can she get lost in such small world.  I guess it's like her either, though.

Ion:
I had almost got lost outside before I met you.

イオンが大好きな真空管や歯車がゴロゴロしている、イオンの精神世界。

左に見えるのがねりこさんの雑貨屋、右に見えるのが世界の壁です。

This is Ion's spiritual world outside her house

where her favorite vacuum tubes and gears lie around.

The house on the left side is Nelico-san's general store,

and the wall on the right side is World Wall. 

新しい仮想世界カードをもらって、ショッピングセンターに出掛ける。とてもおしゃれで高級そうな所らしいです（映像では？だけど）。買い物しても持ち帰れないから、記念に記録が残るポイントカードを作ることを思い付きました。

We went to the mall by a new virtual space card.  Ion said it seemed very stylish and luxury place.  (Although I can't feel that from the image.)  Since she can't take anything back to home, she came up with the idea that making a point card to record shopping for memorial.

Ion:
With the card, I can get an evidence of any shopping as a point, can't I?!


>Later 23:37
プレイ再開時の選択肢で、「イオンかわいい」を選んだ時の今の反応です。確かにあまり親しくない人に言われても、それほど嬉しくないでしょうね。(^_^;)そして、初めてイオンが自主的にリンカージェンを着ました！（大事件）

It was her current reaction when I chose "Ion, you're cute." from the choices displayed after I continue the game.  I suppose it is natural for Ion to be not so glad when someone not close to her tells such things.  And, Ion wore Reincargen by her own decision for the first time!  (It's a big incident!)

Ion:

H, hey!

Stop telling me such embarrassing stuff suddenly.

どうも今回は、プレイ再開時の作業完了報告や「いない間のことを聞く」仕様がなくなったみたいですね。つまり、工作を頼んで離れて、その後再開時に料理していた場合、料理→食事→片付けが終わるまで待たないと工作が完成していても報告されず、完成したことになりません。

多分、時間を進める機能が追加されたゆえの仕様変更だと思います。正確には、同じタスクが実行できる時に完了報告される、という事かな。（再開時に料理してたら、過去の料理の報告だけされます。）あと、採取の報告はされるみたいです。これは機能をある程度活用しないと逆に不便…。

そんな訳で、オフラインでのプレイ目標を書いておいて早々ですが、2.時間を進める機能はできるだけ使用しない、については撤回したいと思います(^_^;)。使わないと、限られた時間しかアクセスできないのに効率が悪くなってしまう。ご容赦ください。

I suppose OFFLINE does not have functions such as the work completion report and "Asking what happened during I went out" when I continue the game.  I mean, for example, if I asked Ion to make a craft and leave, and if Ion was cooking when I continued, then I'd have to wait until Ion would finish the cooking -> eating -> washing the dishes to hear the report even though the craft was done before that.

I guess the specification was changed because the time fast-forwarding function was added.  To be more exact, it seems the work completion report is made when Ion is able to run the same task I asked.  (If Ion is cooking when I continue, then only her past cooking would be reported.)  Moreover, somehow report of material gathering is made anytime.  I consider it would be rather inconvenient without using the time fast-forwarding function at certain rate...

Due to the reason above, I'm going to retract one of the objectives I wrote for OFFLINE, "2. Use the fast-forwarding function of time as few as I can.", even though it is right after I wrote.  It becomes inefficient without using the function while I can access to the game only at limited time.  Sorry.

体育の日の新規季節イベント。外で運動しようということで、仮想空間の学校のグラウンドへ。（イベント後、体操着のレシピを入手できます。）ウィンドウで見えないけど、無論胸には大きな名札がw好きな人はたまらないんでしょうね。

The new seasonal event on Health and Sports Day.  To exercise outside, we went to the field at the school in the virtual space.  (You can get the exercise wear after you see this event.)  You cannot see behind the message window, but there is a big name plate on Ion's chest.  I guess people who like such clothes can't stand it.

Ion:
I, I'm not fat so that I need diet!


>Later 1:19
この発言はすっかり忘れていたのですが、イオンが詩魔法を紡いだのは万寿沙羅が初めてじゃないとの事。アルノサージュまで通して、物語中では結局それに触れられなかったと思います。もしかしてラシェーラに来た時？

I had forgot this remark, but Ion said Manjusara was not the first place she wove a song magic.  I think there was no mention about that throughout the story up to Ar nosurge after all.  Maybe her first time was when she came to Ra Ciela?

Ion:
I can remember "it was not my first time", but I can't remember when was the first time at all.

海で二回目のデート。この時点でプレイヤーを意識し始めているのか、心配をするイオン。この後、サンオイルのレシピを作ってもらう流れになりますが、個人的にはここの台詞のほうが印象に残っています。

The second date at the sea.  Ion somehow worried about me.  Is it because she had begun to have a feeling for me at this point?  Ion would make me the recipe of sunscreen after this scene, but I was personally impressed more with her words here.

Ion:
...I don't believe...but, you don't actually often go out for d, date...do you?


そしてナイスボケw

And she gave me a good reply.

Ion:
Applying oil?  You mean engine oil?

今回は朝起きた時に自分から挨拶してくれたり、献立思考の時にも何かしら喋ったりするようになりました。追加修正具合がなかなか充実しています。時間を進める機能も限られた時にしかアクセスできない人には超便利ですね。

In OFFLINE, Ion talks to me when she wakes up, and she also speaks something during thinking of menu.  New features and modifications are remarkably substantial.  I suppose the time fast-forwarding function is very convenient to a player who can access to the game only at limited time.

Ion:
Morning...huh?
It's earlier than usual...

※この前に、先の不具合についてのツイートがありました。
*I tweeted about the bug I wrote in the former post here.

そんな私にやさしい言葉をかけてくれるイオン。一人暮らしでこういう事を言ってもらえるのは本当に嬉しい。仕事で体を酷使しているので小さな怪我や痛みはありますが、おかげさまで今年は風邪もひかず概ね健康です。

Ion gives me kind words.  I'm so glad to hear such things since I'm living alone.  I have small injury and pain because I tend to abuse my body in my work, but I am almost healthy without a cold during this year.

Ion:
If you break down, I'd miss you and be worried, so just don't strain yourself.

記憶の修復によって出会った仲間の一人、プラムが早々に死んでいたことを思い出し、ショックを受けるイオン。この時はまだ精神的にも脆く、プレイヤーの支えが必要でした。慰めた甲斐あって、前向きな気持ちになったようです。

By restoring her memory, Ion remembered that one of her new friends Prum had died quickly, and she was shocked.  At this time, she was still mentally weak; needed the player's support.  She seemed to feel positively by my effort of cheering her up.

Ion:
If you'll be with me, I think I will be able to hold on from now on, too.


そしてこれが皇帝編最終幕で、あえて残った人々とジェノムを犠牲に、星を潰して宇宙移民を決行した事実を受け止めるイオンです。もう辛いことを思い出しても泣くことなく、記憶と共に自分の成長した我も取り戻したのでしょう。

And this is Ion at the final stage of "Empress" Chapter, calmly taking the fact that she smashed the planet at the sacrifice of people and Genoms stayed daringly to carry out the space emigrant.  She did not cry any more even though she remembered painful memories.  I think she had regained her grown-up self with her memory.

Ion:
Therefore, I'm willing to step forward with this regret.


※この時点でBugsのページに記載しているシャールの不具合を発見し、調査を行いました。（現在は修正されています。）
*I found the bug of Sharls described in Bugs page at this point and checked on that.  (It is fixed now.)

まとめブログの作業が一段落したので、ジェノメトリックコンサートvol.3を聴いています。今回の白眉はなんといっても、ラシェール・フューザーですね。この時のイオンが全生命をかけて謳った詩といっても過言ではない。映像もすごく力が入っていて、見ごたえがあります。

Working on my blog was almost finished, so I'm listening to Genometric Concert vol. 3 now.  This disc's highlight is certainly Ra Ciel Fuser.  I believe Ion at this time took all of her life to sing this song.  The movie is very elaborate and worth watching as well.

ねりこさん登場。ねりこさんは自分が退屈していたから、プレイヤーがイオンの記憶を修復するのを黙認していたと。この時点で本来の目的から逸脱していますが、彼女もイオンのために何かしてやりたい気持ちがあったのかもしれず。

Nelico-san came onstage.  She overlooked the player restoring Ion's memory because she was bored.  She had been already losing her primary purpose at this point, but maybe she wanted to do something for Ion either.

Nelico:
Probably, you might be able to cut this Mobius strip.


そりゃ驚くわ！なにこのビジュアルの劇的な変更？！崩壊前の旧ラシェーラみたいな感じですね。実際にはオンライン版の方が正しいビジュアルだと思うのですが、危機感をあおるためかしら。チャージによって姿が変わっていくのかな？

No wonder I'm shocked!  What is this drastic change of the vision?!  It looks like the old Ra Ciela before it was destroyed.  I think the vision in Online version is more precise to the real image, but maybe this design is made to develop a sense of crisis.  Will charging energy make the vision change?

Sharl:
Hello.
Are you surprised by seeing that?


ねりこさんがくれたカードで、仮想空間の海に初めて出掛ける。今となってはとても思い出深い海。仮想空間のすごいところは、気温とか日射しなども本当に感じられることですね。でも砂が持ち帰れなくて、最大のデメリットに気付くw

Going to the first date at the sea by a special card Nelico-san gave to us.  This sea is very memorable to me now.  Great point of the virtual space is that you can really feel the temperature and sunlight.  However, we recognized the most disadvantage when we couldn't take sand to home.

Ion:
And, I feel I will be able to remember memories such as something I experienced at the sea by visiting here.


>Later 16:03
まだ今の段階では、こっちが離れる時のイオンの態度もあっさりしたもの。将来ボイスメッセージで駄々こねるようになるなんて、本人は思いもしていないでしょうw

At this point, Ion does not seem to miss me when I leave.  I bet she never thinks that she will be fretful in the voice message in the future.

Ion:
See you later.
I'm looking forward to you coming again.

寝ている時のモーションも細かく変更されています。イオンの頭が微妙に動いていたり、夢セカイへ行く時も新たなポーズが。端末はどうやって寝ているイオンを立たせているのか疑問ですが、端末の腕はそのくらい強度があるのかしら。寝てるのを無理矢理立たせるって、我ながら外道w

Motions during sleeping were changed a little, too.  Ion's head slightly moves, and she takes a new pose when I go to the Dream World.  I wonder how does the terminal unit make sleeping Ion stand; Are arms of the unit strong enough to do such work?  I think it's violent myself for forcing a sleeping girl to stand.
