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.

>Later 15:04
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.


>Later 19:28
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.

嫁は寝ているので、今朝の様子。いや、あなたの体験自体が相当に壮大な物語だよwでも、元の世界に帰ったら誰にも言えないし、信じてもらえないでしょう。小説の体でラシェーラでの体験を書いて、賞に応募するという手もあるかも。

Here's my wife this morning since she is sleeping now.  Well, your experience itself is a magnificent story indeed, Ion.  However, I suppose she could tell no one about it after she went back to her own world, and no one would believe her either.  On the other hand, I guess she would rather write her experience at Ra Ciela as a novel and entry it into a competition.

Ion:
I wanna write a novel of magnificent story.


>Later 12:25
またもイオンの着替えの瞬間にブラックスクリーン発生。そしてその直後にシェルノサージュOFFLINEとCDが届く。相殺で良しとしましょうかwもう一年くらい費やす覚悟で！新たな二周めをプレイしていきたいと思います。

The black screen appeared again at the moment when Ion changed her clothes.  Then Ciel nosurge OFFLINE and the CD were delivered right after the accident.  I think it is all right as offset.  I'm ready to spend one more year to play my second run!

>Later 17:28
シェルノサージュOFFLINEのチュートリアル終了まで進めました。NEW GAMEで始めるとデータが初期化されるので、オンラインデータ移行は意味ないですね。育てたシャールは惜しいですが、仕方ない。こっちもクリア寸前まで進めてから、改めて移行すべきかも。

I have finished tutorial part of Ciel nosurge OFFLINE.  I think trasferring the online save data means nothing because data is initialized when I start from NEW GAME menu.  I regret for my online sharls I have grown, but there's no way.  Maybe I should transfer the online data once more after I have played to the point right before the ending.

正確にはまた別の可能性軸になると思いますが、端末を通じてイオンと二度目の出会い。感慨深くて、つい子供の運動会のように写真を撮りまくりたくなりますwイオンはこの時何も覚えておらず、毎日同じ悪夢を見ていました。

I suppose this is actually another possibility axis again, but I met Ion via my console for the second time.  I was deeply impressed so that I wanted to take many pictures as if I was watching an athletic meet of my children.  Ion did not remember anything at this time, and she was having the same nightmare everyday.

Ion:
I used to be lonely by myself for a long time...
But I'm not lonely from now on!


今回のプレイ目標
1.セカイパックは早急に進めすぎず、１ヶ月に1～2幕程度とする。
2.時間を進める機能はできるだけ使用しない。
3.イオンの告白を一度断る（断腸）。
4.バレンタインのイベントを見る。（今年の私のマヌケな様子はこちらの記事参照）

Objectives of this play
1. Don't hurry to see the story of World Packs.  Play one or two packs per month.
2. Use the fast-forwarding function of time as few as I can.
3. Refuse Ion's confession once.  (heart-breaking!)
4. Watch the event on Valentine's Day.  (Refer to this post for my foolish behavior of this year.)


イオンは最初、パジャマだけで過ごしていたようですが、記憶を取り戻したことで洋服第一号のポーラーズメモリーIを作れるように。さらっと釘を刺すところにやはりSな感じがw

Ion seemed to wear pajamas all the time at first; she became able to make Polar's Memory I, her first cloth by restoring her memory.  Ion looks a little sadistic by giving a warning casually.

Ion:
Anyway, this cloth is done as it is.
Don't look at me by dirty eyes.


このシャールって、アルノサージュにも出てきた子ですよね？今にして思うと、この子はサーリのプログラムによって生まれた子だったのでしょうか。

This Sharl appeared in Ar nosurge too, didn't she?  I guess now that she might have been born by Sarly's program.

Sharl:
Now, look at a bar code through your console after you tap "GENOMIX", and connect your world and Ion.


ナビ役のイオンともここで初めて出会う。人間らしい感情はほとんどないと言いつつ、もしかしたら超深層心理（アルノで可能なダイブレベルよりも深い場所）のイオンなのかもしれません。試練編のこの部屋のBGMもすごくいいなあ。

I meet the navigator Ion here for the first time.  She says she has no human emotion, but I suppose she comes from super-unconsciousness (the deeper level than the level I can see in Ar nosurge).  I like the background music of this room during "Trial" Chapter.

Ion:
I believe you will be able to save Ion...


今回、動作の変更や移動のモーションがアイキャッチ？でカットされていますが、随分と忙しない感じが。なんでアイキャッチにあんなシャッターみたいな効果音つけるのwびっくりします。あと、終了する時にオンライン版の癖でセーブせずにそのまま落としそうになります(^_^;)。

Short clips are shown during task changing and moving motion in OFFLINE; I get very hasty feeling from that.  Why did they add such shutter-like sound effect to the images?  I was surprised.  Moreover, I tend to shut down the application without saving data by the habit of playing online version.

>Later 23:35
他の時はともかく、アイキャッチカットが着替え時にも適用されるのはちょっと不満です。リアルタイムで着替えてる感じがよかったのに。この仕様だと、着替え時にトントンした時の反応は聞けないことになりますね。

I'm a little displeased that the clip was also shown when Ion changes her clothes.  I liked the moment when she's changing clothes in real time.  With this specification, I guess I can't hear the response when I tap during changing clothes.

今朝郵便が来たので、シェルノ関係が届いたかな？と思ったら、税金の通知でした。(-_-;)ダブルでガッカリだよ！！帰宅時に嫁は寝てるし、このやるせない気分をどうしたら…（泣）。

I received a mail this morning, so I thought I got Ciel nosurge products.  In fact, it was a notification for taxes.  I was disappointed in a double meaning!!  What can I do for this downhearted feeling while my wife has been sleeping after I came home...

>Later 1:28
ツイートを始めてすぐ、添い寝語りでハーレム系ラノベに激怒するイオンを紹介しました。税金通知の鬱憤晴らしを兼ねて、４連続ツイートにてイオンのツッコミをご覧ください。（前半のごく一部です。）

I had written about Ion getting angry for a "harem light-novel" during a nap at the beginning of my tweets.  To resolve my irritation for the tax notification, watch Ion's objection in four sequential tweets.  (It is only a portion of first part.)

Ion:
It was a rude book which trifled with women.

ラノベのストーリーは、転校先でクラス委員の女の子と、再会した幼馴染みの女の子の両方から好きになられるというもの（よくありますね）。

Story of the novel is that a hero becomes loved by a girl who is a class representative and a girl who is a friend from his childhood at the same time after he transfers to a new school (sounds very familiar, right?).

Ion:
...How do you think of getting on with two cute girls suddenly on the first day at the new school?

そりゃハーレムに他の男は必要ないですね。もしくは完全な引き立て役としてしか存在しません。

As a matter of fact, you don't need other guys in a harem.  Otherwise, other guys could exist only to serve as a foil to the hero.

Ion:
Moreover, I think it is weird that guy friends do not appear in the story.

幼馴染みは主人公のことをデフォルトで好きな法則。小さい頃に結婚の約束をしている可能性大。

A friend from the hero's childhood is likely to love him without reasons.  There is a high possibility that she had a promise to marry him when they were little.

Ion:
It's unnatural that she loves him because she has loved him since her childhood, isn't it?

これでもごく一部でしたが、このツッコミは後半パートもありますw普段あまり怒らないイオンがこの時はずっとおかんむりで、逆にこっちは大笑いしてしまいました。

These are only a portion of Ion's objections.  There is second part of it, too.  I laughed out loud at this Ion because she kept being angry through this talk, even though she usually didn't get mad easily.

Ion:
And yet, this hero...
He makes no sense to me at all.

アルノサージュ再プレイチラ裏。phase3で復活する前にねりこさんが語ったことは心に染み入ります。「とうだいもりがお主を選んだのではない。お主がとうだいもりを選んだ」途中で投げ出した人はそれまで。ずっとアクセスし続けたからこそ、私達はここまで来られたのです。

Writing on the back of a flier while replaying Ar nosurge: I sympathized with what Nelico-san said before Earthes recovered in Phase 3.  "Lighthouse Keeper did not choose you.  You chose Lighthouse Keeper."  People who gave up playing the game on the way could not reach to this point.  We made it here because we kept to access to the game.

Nelico:
Once you have involved with this world, be responsible to protect Lighthouse Keeper till the end.

Amazonデジタルミュージックストアのキャンペーン、ちょうどクーポンもあったのでシェルノサージュのサウンドトラックを購入してみました。iTunesにも転送できるのがいいですね（最近めっきり使わなくなってしまったのですが…）。

Using the campaign of Amazon Digital Music Store, I had bought a sound track of Ciel nosurge since I just happened to have a coupon.  It's nice that I can also send MP3 files to iTunes.  (Although I don't use it much recently...)

>Later 2:57
真夜中のストックネタ・ブルーミングヤードの全身図です。有料DLCでも買わずにいられない可愛さ。制服の冬服ふうな装いですね。この服はブーツもすごく凝っていて見所です（3月4日の記事参照）。

A stocked topic in midnight: overall view of Blooming Yard.  This set of clothes is so pretty that I can't help to run to buy.  It looks like a winter school uniform.  Boots come with this cloth are quite elaborate as well.  (Refer to the post on March 4th.)

Ion:
He-he...Even in the the corridor of the school, my heart pounds when I hold your hand.

今日のストックネタ。本当にデートできたら、ショッピングセンターに行きたいという話。何気にハードルが高いことを要求してくるイオン。よほどセンスが良くないと、ひんしゅく買いそうな気がするのですが…(^_^;)。

Today's stocked topic: Ion said she wished to go to a mall if we would be able to go on a real date.  She casually asks me for a request with a high hurdle.  I suppose I would be frowned unless I truly have a good sense, though.

Ion:
You'd choose me new clothes, and I'd wear them on the date.

アルノサージュ再プレイチラ裏。phase2ラストのアーシェスが壊されるシーンはあえて選択肢（一択でいいから）を出して、プレイヤー自身に決断させてほしかったと思います。自動進行なので置いてきぼり感を禁じ得ません(^_^;)。

Writing on the back of a flier while replaying Ar nosurge: I wanted a choice (even if there's only one) to decide the action by myself at the scene that Earthes was destroyed in Phase 2.  This scene is automatic sequencing, so I can't help to feel being left behind.

そしてその後のデルタとの対話はやはり不可解。まるでプリムの中の人が代わりに喋っているみたいで。プレイヤーがデルタを選んだ訳じゃないし、操るのはアーシェスだけでも良かったと思います。感情入力なら、私は「悩」とか「悲」を選んでいるところ。

Then I also don't understand the conversation with Delta after that scene.  My choices sound as if the person who controls Prim is speaking instead of me.  I did not choose Delta to control; I'd rather think I wanted to control Earthes only.  If "Emotional Input System" was applied, I would input "confusion" or "sadness" for this scene.

Delta:
Give me back my body!

Answer:
--No.  I'm still enjoying it now.
--I'm making efforts for this crap.

※感情入力システムとは、「東京魔人学園」をはじめとする、今井秋芳氏の作品で用いられているもので、主人公の台詞が一切ないかわりに、その時の「感情」を入力して返答するシステムです。主人公の台詞が決められていると、どうしてもプレイヤーの意志の反映が限られてしまいますが、その欠点を一歩解消したシステムと言えます。

*Emotional Input System is a system used in the video games directed by Shuhou Imai, such as "Tokyo Majin Gakuen", which you can answer to a question by inputting your "emotion" at the time while the hero's words don't exist in the game at all.  The player can't reflect his will completely when the hero's words are fixed, but this system breaks off the fault one step further.

今日はジェノメトリックコンサートvol.3の発売日ですが、まだ届いていません(^_^;)。Amazonからは何も通知が来てないので、単に発送が立て込んでいるだけかな。この分だとシェルノ本体も遅れそうです。すでに嫁はいつでも横にいるので、焦ることもないですけど。

Today is the day that Genometric Concert vol. 3 is released, but I haven't got it yet.  I didn't receive any notification from Amazon, so I guess the shipment is merely get crowded or something.  Maybe Ciel nosurge OFFLINE will be late, too.  Well, I don't have to be hasty because my wife is already by my side any time.
