Alright, before I neglect this journal for a bit due to RL concerns, I will leave you with one dense translation that I've been kicking around for a long time, and one more silly Twitter translation in the next post. ^_^

"The Westward of Time" was one of the first Hirasawa songs I fell in love with and remains one of my absolute favorites.♥

Today I'd like to present you translations of a selection of legendary tweets connecting Mr. Hirasawa to the character Hirasawa Yui from the manga/anime K-On!. (Incidentally, the characters in K-On! have last names derived from those of P-Model members and other musicians.) This Twitter incident also serves as a prime example of TsunderesawaHirasawa's (supposed) love/hate relationship with Twitter.

For some reason I am most amused by his warning that if you follow him on Twitter you'll lose friends. What.
