english –
“The one you love rarely loves you back”
To your words, I could only nod “right, right”
My heart is all yours, yet yours is with her
“Let’s do our best”, you said
But what should I do, tell me
A way to get you to notice me
Tell me you love me, love me, love me
Look into my eyes and tell me
Even if you think it’s just a rehearsal
Kisses, arm pillows, hugs, everything
Won’t you try them all with me??
And just like that, fall in love with me
“Some love won’t come true no matter how hard you try”
To your words, I could only shake my head
“I’m not going to give up, and you can’t give up just like that”
“Thanks for that”, you said
But what should I do, I’ve no clue
A way to keep you by my side
Tell me you love me, love me, love me
Look into my eyes and tell me
Even if you think it’s just a rehearsal
Checking out presents for a date?
If you want I can go out with you
And just like this, we’d become a couple
Tell me you love me, love me, love me
Look into my eyes and tell me
Even if you think it’s just a rehearsal
You said you love me, love me, love me
Looked into my eyes and told me
Though to you it was just a rehearsal
Kisses, arm pillows, hugs too, everything
Won’t you try them all with me??
And just like that, fall in love with me
And just like this, fall in love with me
kanji –
『本気でスキな人とはなかなか結ばれない』
君が言ったセリフに『うん。うん。』って頷く
あたしの本気は君で 君の本気はあの子だね
『頑張ろな』って言われても
どうすればいいのよ 教えてよ
君振り向かす方法
スキだ スキだ スキだ 言って
あたしに向かって言ってみて
リハーサルだって思ったらいい
キスも腕枕もギュッも全部
あたしで試してみたらいいんじゃない??
そのまま本気になっちゃえばいいのに
『どんなにスキでいたって叶わない恋もある』
君が言ったセリフに首横に振っている
『あたしは諦めないよ 君も諦めちゃだめだよ』
『ありがとな』て言われたら
どうすればいいのか わかんない
君と一緒にいる方法
スキだ スキだ スキだ 言って
あたしに向かって言ってみて
リハーサルだって思ったらいい
デートコースにプレゼント下見
あたしでよければ付き合ってあげる
このままカップル成立でいいのに
スキだ スキだ スキだ 言って
あたしに向かって言ってみて
リハーサルだって思ったらいい
スキだ スキだ スキだ 言ってる
あたしに向かって言っている
リハーサルだってわかってても
キスも腕枕もギュッも全部
あたしで試してみたらいいんじゃない??
そのまま本気になっちゃえばいいのに
このまま本気になっちゃえばいいのに

Independent music group, supercell has taken the Japanese otaku community by storm! In March 2009, their popularity had caught the attention of record label Sony Music Japan earning them their first commercial album titled after themselves, supercell. In July of the same year, their new single Kimi no Shiranai was chosen as the ending theme song for the hit ghost anime series, Bakemonogatari.
In tracing their history further back, the group was started by independent music composer under the alias ryo. He is probably most well known for his music videos including Black Rock Shooter, which utilizes Yamaha’s voice synthesizer program, Hatsune Miku. The video has received over one million views on the popular Japanese video site, Nico Nico Douga. The song’s influence has led to an anime adaptation that is set to air on Japanese televisions in April 2010.
The group has been shrouded in mystery as none of the members have made public appearances. Learn a bit more about what the group’s leader and composer ryo, and vocal singer nagi had to say about themselves and their current and past works in our exclusive first English interview!
また、日本語に
イラストと音楽のぶつかり合いや周りを巻き込んで大きくなっていく様がsupercellのようである、というところから来ています。
ryo: I started when my parents first bought me a synthesizer when I was in middle school.
中学生のときにシンセサイザーを親から買ってもらった事がキッカケで作り始めました。
ryo: They weren’t especially supportive, but I asked them to buy me one if I passed my high school entrance exam.
特別協力的ではないですが、「高校受験当時に受かったら買って」という感じで買ってもらった感じです。
ryo: It depends on each song, but usually I would play the piano and take notes of the chord progression, then I would put the lyrics on top of it. Usually the electric piano is the only instrument I would use when composing.
曲によってバラバラなのですが、だいたいピアノを弾きながらコード進行をメモして、歌詞を当てていくようなやり方です。作曲の段階で使用する機材は 電子ピアノくらいです。
ryo: Well, actually none of them are difficult. It’s nothing complicated. I’m sorry… I don’t have a favorite song yet, but I do like the song “Line”. I’ve been wanting to compose a song like this.
どの曲もあまり難しいということはないんですよね。特別難しいことはしていないので。すみません……一番好きな曲というのは今のところないのです が、「ライン」という曲がまあまあ好きです。こういう曲調が作ってみたかった、というのが理由です。
ryo: We were actually offered to do the theme song initially, so I’m glad that the music reached out to a lot of people.
テーマソングに、というオファーありきで作ったので、多くの人に聴いてもらえて嬉しいです。
ryo: The illustrations are basically done by Shirow Miwa, redjuice (Shiru), and huke, and all of the artwork and designs are handled by wooser. From my side, I would only tell them the image of the song in a word or two besides actually having them listen to the piece.
基本的にイラストは三輪士郎、redjuice(しる)、huke、の3名で構成されています。またアートワーク、デザインはwooser(宇佐) が全てを執り行っています。自分のほうからは楽曲を聴いてもらった上でイメージを一言伝える程度しかしていません。
ryo: I asked Mr. Uki, the director of CENCOROLL, what kind of music he likes. Then he told me that he likes house /techno-like music, so I tried to meet his request.
センコロール監督である宇木監督と打ち合わせをしている時に、どんな曲が好きですか?とたずねたのですが、4つ打ちの曲が好き、との事でしたのでリ クエストに応えてみた感じです。製作面ではサイドチェインコンプを使ってみたかったので使ってみた、という感じです(笑。
ryo: It’s about a couple going to a club, where the girl can’t be quite honest and the boy is a bit clumsy.
クラブに遊びにいく二人のお話をイメージして作っています。ちょっと素直になれない女の子と不器用な男の子という感じですね。
nagi: I really liked ryo’s music, and we’d been talking about how we should work together and collaborate someday, then the Kimi no Shiranai Monogatari offer came up. It was really good timing. We even finished the song on my birthday, so I felt it was kind of fateful.
nagi: I always liked singing since I was little, but I’ve never had professional voice training or studied music. We had an electric organ at the house, so I self-taught myself.
歌は小さい頃から好きで、よく歌っていました。ボーカルの専門的なトレーニングや音楽の勉強をしたことはないです。家に電子オルガンがあったので、 独学で弾いたり、自由に音楽をやってました
ryo: we’ll be releasing our second single, Sayonara Memories in February.
Unfortunately at this point I won’t be able to tell you our plan after that, but we’ll have many activities coming up, so please stay tuned!
とりあえず2月の2枚目のシングル「さよならメモリーズ」を出します。その後の予定は現時点ではまだ言えないのですが、色々進展がありますので興味 あるかたはお楽しみに!
ryo: February is the theme for the song. In Japan, this is the graduation season, so I tried to express those farewells, the anxiety for the future, as well as hope for the future.
ryo: Of course, whenever I get a chance. I’m still currently using it in various ways.
もちろん。時間さえあればですが。現在でも色んな形で使っていたりはします。
ryo: Hello, my name is ryo, and I’m the composer for supercell. I would be very happy if you like any of our illustrations, music, designs, or the website. I’ve never imagined receiving an interview request from overseas, and I’m actually very surprised. It would be absolutely great if our creation leaps over the language barrier!
Thank you very much for reading, and for all your support!
はじめまして、supercellで音楽を作っているryoと申します。イラスト、音楽、デザイン、ウェブ、何か気に入ってもらえているとしたらと ても嬉しいです。まさか海外から取材が来るとは全く思っていなかったのでびっくりしています。自分たちの作るモノが言葉を飛び越えて伝わってくれたら最高 です!最後まで読んでくれてどうもありがとうございました!
