005
Soga: ...Who are you...//Who/Who are you?//Who are you...
006-007
Docs: Heart rate, breathing, blood pressure and cortisone levels decreasing. Dermal Electric Resistance in augmentation./What about cerebral activity?/We have high-rate, simultaneous emissions of alpha and theta waves from the frontal lobe towards the central sulcus.[tn: I have no way to tell if this actually makes any sense.]
008
Docs: Blood circulation is increasing in the right frontal lobe./And decreasing in the posterior parietal cortex.//10 minutes since inception of the meditative state./5 since deafferentation...//Guess he's about to break into the Land of Light.[tn: A possible reference to the show Ultraman. Hikari no Kuni (the Land/Country of Light) was an alternative name for his homeworld, the M78 Galaxy.]
009
Docs: Wait./The brain waves' synchronization won't stabilize.//This is...*eeeeeeeeeeep*
Docs: He's... looking for something.........?
010
Docs: Urgent report from the Control Center!/What is it?/We have a problem at the Drome./The system has frozen due to an overload. The safety valve has been triggered.//What?
*clink*
*bzum*
011
*eeeeeeeeeep* *peep peep peep peep*
Docs: We have repeated occurrences of beta spindles! He's connecting to the Drome.//The Drome?

Gal: Kabu?
014
Gal: What's wrong, Kabu?/Hello.
Kabu: Well...
015
Kabu: I have/that sort of feeling, like I'm being watched...
Gal: Heh./Aren't you a thin-skinned one.//That thing over there, that's Buddha's Eyes./and the Third Eye-looking thing... well, it's just a symbol./Come on. Let's get going.[tn: The Swayambunath is a temple in Kathmandu (Nepal). Roughly speaking, it is to Hindu and Buddhists what Mecca is to Muslims or Jerusalem to Muslims, Christians and Jews. Predictably it's also a popular destination for pilgrimage. On the mound at the top of the structure (stupa) a pair of eyes representing Wisdom and Compassion is painted on each side, facing all four main directions. These eyes are what people (the Japanese, at least) refer to as "Buddha's Eyes". I found no such name in English (or even in French, for that matter).]
Kabu: Let's get going, you say.../Aren't we already there? Everybody's on amp.
Gal: We're wasting our time here. This floor's pretty much one big game center.
016
Gal: To them, meditation is just a pretext to have fun on a virtual playground.//Oh well... I must say, everybody falls for it at first, though. There are plenty of kinds of amps to go around, you see.
Kabu: Plenty of 'em?
Gal: Uh-huh... For example//You have those that fulfill your mundane desires, showing you the futility of it all.
Dudes: Eegh./Ahaa...
Gal: The cathartic ones, that let you expiate for all the things you're feeling guilty about.//Some guys even come with diapers on, but these are the crazy-prepared ones.
Dude: Aaaahhh. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
017
Kabu: Huh...
Gal: But that's just fluff for the purpose of drawing in customers. The center's inner citadel is upstairs.
Kabu: Inner citadel?
Gal: Group sessions./If this was an onsen, that'd be a large public bath.
Dude: Uh. Uh. Uhuh.
Kabu: Hey./You said everybody got stuck there at first.
018
Kabu: That means you too?/Diapers, and all.
Gal: Idiot.//Only the guys do that.
Kabu: So./What do girls do?
Gal: ...........[tn: Let us not think too hard about that.:hahaha:]
Kabu: Duh?/Why are you blushing?
Gal: Forget about it.
Dudes: Please follow me. Follow me.//Oooh.//Aaah. I see./This is me.//Oh-ho.
*pew pew pew* *chirp chirp chirp*
019
Kabu: That's it?/That's the public bath...?
Gal: That's right. The "Drome".//The Synesthesia Transzone. A common illusion created by all the participants./There, you will find a world that is a reflexion, and a projection of everybody's true selves.
020
Gal: Since it's your first time, you need to go through calibration first, so you can have a chip made for you. | That chip works as a pass, with your brain's specificities memorized in it.
Clerk: Is it your first time?
Dude: Uh. Erm. Well.
Gal: Then, all you need to do is insert the chip in your prescribed amp and dive in.
Dude: Cali. Cabril[tn: The text uses the English word "calibration" directly, which maybe explains why the man's struggling to get it right. That or he's just high.]
Clerk: You mean calibration. Well, Seat 14 is currently occupied.
Gal: Well, you get the idea. Now since I'm already registered I'll be going right ahead and wait for you inside.
Kabu: Hey./Wait up... What do you mean, "inside"?
Gal: No problem./One you dive in I'll come looking for you.
021
Gal: Later, then.*crack*
Kabu: .........//Heh./Here's a lively one.//She loves it.//Lo and behold. Such enthusiasm.
Clerk: Indeed./Huhu./You'll come to enjoy it too.
Kabu: Uh-huh.../Maybe, yeah.
Clerk: There./Your seat is on the right, outside the tunnel. Number 15.
023
Voice: Drome./Drome./Drome./Drome./Drome./Drome./Drome. Drome./Welcome to the "Drome".//Eden/Eden/Eden./An Eden of meditation spun together by the participants' interconnected hearts and minds./Mind/Mind/Mind/Mind.[tn: 桃源郷 (tougenkyou) can also be translated as "Arcadia", "Shangri-La", and by extension "Utopia".]/Soul/Soul/Souls may act in concert in this place, working towards one another's spiritual elevation and thereby set their spirits free./Free/Free/Free/Free/Free/Free.[tn: WTF WTF WTF WTF.:hahaha:]
024
Voice: The Drome: The runway to evolution./Now your old shell will be stripped away from you./Fly! Fly to the Land of Light.
Other voice: Complete/Complete/Complete/Complete
025
Voice: Calibration complete.
Kabu: Yeah, yeah, that's right. | I love it. Yes I do.
Voice: Take your microchip off the slot and make your way into the lounge.
026
Folks: .........Where.//Where is God?//In the Land of Light?//No. He's still on the way.//Really? I can't believe it. For real? Today's the day?//The time is upon us! The time to prepare and strive towards self-purification is now, this instant.
Kabu: Haha... What the heck? They're not even on amps and they're still creaming themselves.//Or maybe they're high on something else.
Hair: They worship the Living God.[tn: Hey! I don't remember asking for worshipers.:huh:]
027
Kabu: Uh...
Hair: The Living God... A one-of-a-kind, transcendent being./Overwhelming in His radiance. They say those who are touched by His light experience ecstasy, along with total purification and the salvation of their souls...[tn: Salvation in the Buddhist sense of the term.]
Kabu: ..........
Hair: And the man shows up here at the Drome, from time to time.//Well... That's how the rumor goes, anyway. Never got to meet him personally.
Kabu: Hewww...
Hair: It's your first time here... isn't it?
Kabu: Yeah... Fresh out of calibration./You been here for long?
Hair: I've been coming and going for something like a couple of years, now./I forgot. My name's Imai Jun.//Even after two years the path remains unforgiving and salvation still lies very far, far ahead.
Art: Image![tn: Pronounced like the French word, i.e "ee-maj". But I'll keep calling him "Hair": Shorter that way.]
028
Art: So you did come./What are you doing here?
Hair: Hi, Arthur. How are you doing?
Art: Nevermind how I'm doing. Just listen.//Andy said today was the day of Divine Advent./You know about 'em, don't you?/I mean, about Andy's precognition powers and how great they are./Huh?
Hair: Uh-huh./That so, Andy?//Mh?/...Aaah.
029
Hair: This is a new participant. His name is, uh...
Andy: KAAAAATSU![tn: In Zen Buddhism, the cry of "Katsu" is uttered by those who achieve Enlightenment, or by a mentor seeking to shock his students into attaining it. Those who are familiar with the Narutoverse will no doubt recognize the word.]//You./You're a pumphead, you are. Here on rehab?
Kabu: .........
Art: Oooh./The Third Eye!
Kabu: Nah... Well. | I mean.
Hair: Pft*doooong*
Art: Oh./Got some new free spots!*doooong*
030
Art: 35...53.../Let's go. Look. That's four empty seats. Perfect.//Hurry up, Image! | You don't wanna miss out on the Living God, do you?
Hair: Well, then./Shall we go?
Kabu: From Imai Jun... to Image, is it......?
Hair: Yeah./It's common practice to address people by their nicknames, around here.//Speaking of which, Arthur stands for Asada Masanari, and Andy for[tn: It makes more sense in Japanese, where "asa" and "Arthur" sound a lot more similar.]
Kabu: Andou?
Hair: Correct./Andou Hozumi.[tn: No reading tips are provided for the names, so I go for whatever sounds more likely.]
Kabu: Pretty simple, isn't it.
Hair: Yep. The names... Are just that. Names.//The name is by no means the person itself./The more you meditate, the more you find out it doesn't hold that much of a meaning... That anything would do fine. /From there...finding a suitable name pretty much comes naturally.
031
Hair: For all the fancy talk about names, however/you're still gonna need something people can call you by. So what will it be?
Kabu: ........ Eeeer... Um...
Hair: Haha... Sorry. That's my bad./Being asked to come up with a nick on such short notice must suck.
Kabu: Heaven.
Hair: Eh?
Kabu: Heaven./That's my name.
Hair: ...I see./Can't get any more spontaneous than that.//Alright, then Heaven./You just take that seat.//Put on your amp and insert the ID chip in its slot. The seat will take care of the rest and carry you to the Drome./Equipping these amps is not much of a change compared to those you'd buy at your local store.
032
Hair: The high, however is a bit different./Oh, well... Just dive in. You'll find out for yourself.//Well, I'm off. See you at the Drome./Have a nice trip!
Kabu: .............*scratch scratch*
Kabu: Have a nice trip, eh.........?//I think I've heard that one before. Somewhere.*clank*
033
*schlack*
*clong*
Kabu: !
*clunk*
*vrrrrrrrrrr* *clang*
*creak/creak*
*vrrzzzuuuumm*
*uuuummm*
034
*claaaoooonnng*
*bzuuum*
035
Voice: Welcome to the Drome./Please attune a Form of your own to the Macroform at the dome's center.
036
*vvvvzzzzzzz/vzzzzzuuuummm*
Voice: Please align your own Form/along with the Macroform.
037
Kabu: Align yourself this, attune yourself that. | But how am I supposed to go about it?
Voice: You'll find a controller on the armrest, next to your right hand./Use it to add your own Form to the Macroform.
Kabu: !
038
Kabu: Heh. | That was very kind of you.*click click*
Kabu: Oooh./It's working.
*beeeeep*
Voice: Lock on./That's it for the controller.//Next, you need to visualize./Synchronize your Form's pulsations with those of the Macroform.
Kabu: I see./That's the deal, isn't it...//Synchronize./Synchronize...*vzzuummm/vzzzzuuuum*
Kabu: You make it sound so damn easy./It's not matching at all.
039
Voice: Your respiration is erratic./Breathe deeply. You'll want to resort to belly breathing.
Kabu: Belly breathing.../(That's right...//This is no game shit./It's meditation.)
*huff...*
Kabu: (Still my heart...//Match)/Pheewww/(the pulsations...//No.//There's no point in trying to force a match to happen./What I need is to visualize........//Abandon yourself.)
040
Kabu: (Just let go. Abandon who you are./Give yourself to this thing...//Don't stay attached. That's what's important./That's right.../Don't let anything tie you down.........)
*todom dom todo todom*
Hair: ...the more you find out names don't hold that much of a meaning...*dom todom todom dom todom*
Hair: That anything would do fine.
Kabu: (Yeah.../That's right...)
041
*todom dom todom*[tn: As many times as necessary...]
Kabu: (I am "It"./And "It" is "Me".)
*TODOM*
042
*wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee*
043
*eeeeeeeeeep*
*shwoooaaaaoooooong*
044
Kabu: Mh?
045
*chirp chirp chirp*
*tic toc tic toc*
*tic toc tic toc*
*vvvvzzzun/vzzzzummm*
Kabu: Mhhhh...*plic*
Hair: Equipping these amps is not much of a change compared to those you'd buy at your local store.
046
Hair: The high, however is a bit different./Oh, well... Just dive in. You'll find out for yourself.
Kabu: Duh?
Hair: Well, I'm off. See you at the Drome. | Have a nice trip!*ding dong*
Kabu: That scene....../I just saw it happen.
*clank*
Hair: Excuse me! | I'll just let myself in.//Hi there./Would this be your place?
047
Hair: Hum... That is quite a sight.
Kabu: ............
Hair: Ah. Don't mind me.//I see. This is where you usually watch TV./Can I have the remote for a second?
Kabu: ........
Hair: Thank you.
*plic*
Hair: This is what the Drome is supposed to look like, normally.../Natural, organic scenery. | Because quite a lot of people enjoy that sort of environment, you see.
048
Hair: So when I saw such an urban landscape popping out of nowhere/I thought maybe...... I should pay a visit. | You know, just to make sure.
Kabu: Uh... Uh.
Hair: You are confused, perhaps.//I can understand./Everyone is a bit surprised, the first time. | You hardly expected to have such vivid memories.
Kabu: Memories...?
Hair: When you dive for the first time/your unconscious brings back up some environment you're closely attached to, whichever place feels the most secure.//Yep. In other words, this room/acts as a buffer zone, so to speak. Before you can break into the Transzone proper.
Kabu: Haha/Hahaha.
Hair: Good./It's finally starting to sink in./Look.
049
Kabu: !
Hair: Your consciousness is opening up to the Drome./Why don't you take another step forward? Make your own way in?
Art: Heeey./Hellooooo.//Get out, will ya./You can't shut yourself away forever.
Hair: They're even calling us from the other side./Shall we go?
Kabu: Hahahaha. Hahaha.
050
Hair: Welcome to the Synesthesia Transzone./Welcome to the "Drome"!//Hi, sorry for the wait.
Art: Incredible. That went down pretty smoothly.
051
Art: You're taking it in pretty good, for a first-timer./You did have all that training from doing pumps. Maybe that's it. Hahaha...
Hair: Oh yeah. We don't need this anymore.
Kabu: Uh...
Hair: I'll erase it.
*peeeww*
Hair: Now... this./Now to deal with this product of the industry...//How about...*clamp/clamp/clamp*
*bffwwwooosshhh*
052
*sshhpaaaaaang* *clap clap clap*
Hair: Bah... Anyone could pull these tricks, around here. | It's all about visualization.
Art: Which is to say, the first goal of the Drome/is to imprint your conscious mind with what it truly feels like to turn your visions into reality.
Hair: If you can return with that feeling into the real world/it can help you develop your psychic powers, so to speak. That's the idea, anyway.
053
Hair: There's something of a pitfall to it, though.
Kabu: Whoa
Angels: Ciao.♥ Newbie-san.[tn: In Italian, "Ciao" can mean "Hello" as well as "Goodbye".]//Come on. | Stop making fun of the new guys.//But they started it. Launching fireworks, and all.
Hair: People who gain such powers/tend to remain caught up.//That's why, you ought to come to terms with the powers you get without them confusing you. | And that, my friend, is the true meaning of the Drome./Gaining power, then letting go of it all, as a base desire. | "Purification".
Art: ...Well yeah. Sorry to butt in the middle of such an inspired talk | but thing is, speaking of base desires, the source of our desire comes today.
Hair: Uh-huh.
Art: There, look. Her influence even extends all the way here.
054
Hair: ...It can't be./Sally?[tn: Sally the Witch, I presume. An anime first run in 1966-67, and the first one to feature the magical girl theme.]
Art: Righto. | She never manifested all the way here./This year's the first time, isn't it?
Hair: Hey, come on!/Let's move it, guys!
Kabu: Who's that?
Art: A Witch. We call her Sally-chan.
Hair: A Trickster Angel who lavishes dreams all around, with her powers beyond compare.[tn: Itazura Tenshi (Choppo the Mischievous Angel) is another vintage anime by Kyooka Sumiko, about... an angel who pulls pranks, unsurprisingly.]/You're a lucky man, Heaven. | You get to meet Sally on your first participation.
055
Dudes: Did you say Sally?/Sally's coming?
Art: We should fly, maybe?
Hair: You're right. But...
Art: Yeah, I guess Heaven can't.
Hair: I'm wondering about that. But it's just his first day, after all.
Andy: Let's fly.
Hair: Hold it, Andy. Heaven can't...
Kabu: Wo/woa
Andy: He can fly. Yes he can!
Art: Andy's really serious about Sally, he is.
Kabu: Whooooaaaaah.
Hair: Aaah, crap.//Visualize, Heaven! | See yourself flying./Arthur, grab his arms.
Art: Aye, Sir.
Hair: Let's go. One, twooo
056
Hair: Three
Art: Yahooooo.//Hahaaa. Yeaaah.
Hair: Yes. That's it. | Keep visualizing./There you have it. | You're a genius at this, Heaven.
Kabu: How large......../The Drome is quite something.
Hair: Yep... Newcomers enter at the most remote section of the Drome, you see./We're getting closer to the central area, though.
057
Hair: Story goes, with the creation of the first neuro-amps, someone went to the utmost limits of their spiritual evolution./The Drome established templates out of this transcendant being's superior state of mind and converted them into a program...
Art: In other words, that distinguished person is the one we call our Living God.//And that's why... if there's any truth to Andy's predictions/that God might well descend upon us wherever Sally-chan happens to be.
Hair: I see. | That sounds plausible enough.
Art: Ah. There. I can see it!
058
Hair: Whoops. | Wait up. Wait up!/Can't say I didn't expect it. We have a problem, folks.
Kabu: A problem?
Hair: Well... It's a lot more austere around here, usually./This place is meant to have a holy atmosphere about it.//Look. Over there./Around the fountain. The mood there is different from everywhere else, isn't it?
059
Hair: The Sacred Fount. | ...Right at the center of the Drome./So many veterans assembled there, visualizing as if their lives depended on it. | Yet they can't hold a candle to Sally in terms of power.
Andy: Pfffffuh.
Art: Ah. | Andy's laughing.
Hair: Bwahahaha.
Art: Good going, Sally.
Kabu: Woops.
Hair: Uh. Hey!//Fly, Heaven. Fly!
Art: Visualize. Visualize.
Kabu: Ah./Ah.
*poof*
Kabu: Uh?
060
Gal: Ya-hooooo.☆/Don't overdo it, guys.
Boys: SALLY
Art: -chan.
Gal: Oh my. Kabu!//I didn't expect you to make it here so fast.
Boys: Huh?
Kabu: ...You?/You're Sally?
061
Monk: Accursed Witch./Foul disturbance unto the Drome...
062
Gal: YEEEEHAAAAAAAH
People: Yeaaah. Sally./Sally, welcome back.
063
People: It's been half a year, where have you been? | We thought you'd attained Salvation or something.
Gal: Haven't had such a wild party in a long time. Hell yeah.//Today's festival day.
People: Hey, you already done, Sally?
Gal: Not yet. Just taking a break!
Art: Still rocking as hard as ever, Sally-chan.
Hair: For someone gone so long, it's really not showing.
Gal: Yep... My intuitions have finally returned.//Well, I've got the basics down anyway.
Hair: Gotta say I'm surprised, though./Can't say I expected you and Heaven to already know each other.
Gal: Hm? Heaven?
064
Gal: Ah-hah.../You go by Heaven, then. | Hummm.
Kabu: Tsk.//Shut up./Look who's talking, "Sally".
Gal: I don't see where the problem is! I'm a witch.
Kabu: Suuure. That explains it all.
Gal: What kind of attitude is that?
Andy: Um, excuse me./I have a question!
Gal: Yes?
Andy: Ahem. | Do you mind telling me what's going on?/Between you and Heaven, I mean.
Kabu: Dealer and customer.
Guys: UUUUUUH
Art: And which is which, exactly?
065
Kabu: Well, I think it's pretty obvious./I'm the
Gal: Clam it.//Let me clarify. Eeeeerm. He is | Well, he's a little brother of sorts, and a pain in the neck.
Kabu: Heh. | Yeah, sure.//That's right! Since I'm already bothering you/A witch like you should be able to whip out a cold beer for me. Just like that. | My throat is parched up already.
Hair: Well, Heaven, that's
Gal: Why don't you make your own?/Everyone's a witch, here in the Drome.
Kabu: Ah... Really.
Gal: Really./Makes for some nice visualization training, don'tcha think?
Kabu: Visualize, eh.../Visualize........ Alright.//(A mug with water drops on it./>Cold.</Real heavy./>Pale-ale.</With a lot of foam...[tn: If you know a thing or two about beer terminology, now's the time to show it. I could use the help.]
066
Kabu: I did it.../Hey, I did it.
*clap clap clap*
Kabu: A beer./Cheeeeers.//Gulp//Gulp. Gulp.//Gulp//BWAAAAH//Hey, that didn't do anything at all./Feels like drinking air. | It just looks the part but it's not real!
Gal: Yep.../An illusion.
067
Gal: Everything you create is just an illusion./I'll push it even further: even your thirst is an illusion./Because you don't have a real body in the first place.
Kabu: ...My body./doesn't exist...
Hair: You are confident in your own existence, aren't you?//This here is an illusion, however./In this, the Drome and real life are similar.
Kabu: Similar...?
Hair: When you entered the Drome | I assume you temporarily left any illusion of self behind.
Kabu: Ah...
068
Hair: Yes... And you reconstructed a model of yourself once inside./Along with your room.
*chirp chirp* *pew pew pew* *chirp*
*flap flap flap* *peep peep peep* **gwooooooOOOOOSSSHHHH*[tn: Good luck sorting that out. :dizzy:]
069
*WOOOOOOOOOSSSHHH*
Gal: Everyone has already learned something important the moment they entered the Drome. | But not everyone realizes it./Confused as they are by the Drome's magic.
Dude: Heeeey, Sally. | You already done having fun?//They're making a comeback.
070
*DUDUDUDUDUDUDUDUDUN*
Art: Duh. When did that happen?
Hair: Oh-hoo...
Monk: Unruly defiler unto this holiest of places./With our Spiritual Barrier of Compassion, manifestation of our Bodhicitta | we hereby confine and cleanse thee.[tn: "Bodhicitta" means "aspiration to Buddhahood".]
071
*gwooom*
*zwooom*
*zdum zum tudum*
072
*zbraaaooom*
*crrrrrrrrrrrrrrr*
073
*fwoosh fwoosh fwoosh fwoosh*
Gal: ...Looks like our little chat is over.
Hair: Yep... We showed an opening, and they jumped right into it.
Art: Uh?/Hey, wait a minute. | I can't fly?
Monk: Spare thine efforts... Whosoever standeth within our Barrier shalt be made powerless!/Ye shall now sink to the bottom of the earth.
Art: Eeek.*crack*
074
Hair: Whoaaaah.*crack crack*
Andy: It's crumbling away.*BROM*
Gal: Fine. | If that's how you wanna play it, let's play it that way./Alright. Pay attention, Kabu.//No, I mean. Eeeerrrm/Heaven.*scratch scratch*
Kabu: Bah, never mind that...
Gal: What they want is a Utopia./Holy item, free of impurity, and all that jazz. | A diorama set for their meditation purposes, in other words.
075
Gal: I discard all that rubbish/in favor of letting yourself know that everything is an illusion.//This is the way I do things. | This is my awakening.//Sally-style meditation mode.*BOOOOOW*
076
*Bwooom*
Monk: DESTROY
*PSHAAAOOOOOOM*
077
*fwoosh fwoosh fwoosh*
Monks: Humph.../Foolish girl.
Art: Sally-chan...
Dude: Sally.....
Monk: You can't stop us......./It's too late, no matter how powerful you are.*fwoosh fwoosh*
Monk: We are the Circle of Wisdom and Piety./Our Winds of Clarity and Pureness cannot be stopped.
Gal: Go ahead./Keep going around all you like.
*gwoosh gwoosh gwoosh*
Monk: Mh?
078
Monks: Nuooooooaaah//Yaaaaaiiiiieeeee*gwoosh gwoosh gwoosh*
Gal: Found an opening.
*SWIPE*
Monks: WHOAAAAH
079
*poof*
People: Oooh./Oooooh.
080
Gal: Alright, everyone. The party continues./Mahariku Maharita/Yanbarayaaaaaaan.[tn: Sally the Witch's magic formula. Feel free to replace with "Bibbidi-bobbidi-boo".]
People: YEAAAAAAAAAAAAH
081
Monk: Kh...*gwooosh gwoosh gwoosh*
Monk: Damn you, Witch... We aren't done yet./I'm gonna kick you out of the Drome or die trying.//I'll see to it personally.
Horse: This is unbecoming..
Monk: Uh.
Horse: Resentment and bitterness, envy and jealousy.//These are the roots whence derive all conflicts./All these things are unfit for the Drome.
Monk: Who/Who are you...?
082
Horses: The Drome is originally meant/as a place for people to pursue Salvation and Enlightenment.
Monk: Hic//Wh wha-wha-wha
Horses: People who should let go of the secular world and its delusions/Are abasing themselves in a petty squabble for hegemony./On the other hand, those who stirred the embers of war
Monks: Who are you. Just who in the world are you?
Horses: They pose another problem, that much can't be denied.*Wooooooooosh*
*wooooooooosh*
Horse: Yes. Which is why, for the present
083
Horse: The bones of contention are to be removed...........
*PFWWWOOOOOSH*
084
Hair: Incorrigible! | These guys will never learn.
Gal: Wait./Something's not right.
085
Hair: What........ are they doing?
086
Kabu: Um./Hey... Aren't they kinda glowing somewhat?
Hair: ...No way!
Kabu: What?
Hair: Well... The story goes that in the Drome,/those who are close to Salvation give out an aura that is visible to the naked eye.
Kabu: Seriously?
Art: So they're all..........
087
Monks: Ah...//Agh
*vzum*
*vzum vzum vzum vzum vzum vzum *
088
*vzum vzum*
Hair: Separation...
Kabu: Salvation?
Art: Not salvation. Separation from the Drome. | They withdrew back into the real world.[tn: "Separation" is less accurate than "withdrawal", which is what Image actually meant here. But the word "withdrawal" makes Kabu's confusion and Arthur's comment come off as unwarranted and pointless, as they're really hard to mistake for one another.]
Kabu: Heeey. Wait for meeee.
089
Kabu: Wooops.
Hair: Gone without a trace......... | And the merry-go-round too.
Art: This is weird. | A bug in the program, maybe?
Kabu: Huh?//Ain't it just a matter of visualizing?/Vanishing them, I mean.
Hair: To alter something or make it disappear/you must have enough juice to overpower the one who created it.//And I seriously doubt these Diorama fuckers can pack that kind of muscle.........
Art: What the
Hair: Mh?/What's wrong, Arthur?
Art: This...

Art: Perhaps it's really a bug? Maybe?*shwoopf*
Gal: !
Art: Hah
092
*vzum vzum*
Hair: Masters?
Kabu: I... I know that dude./I saw him on that TV show.........
Gal: Masters........../Whipping out the big guns, are they.........
093
People: Masters./This is the first time I ever see 'em in person........//Same here./Under normal circumstances, they seldom get out of the VIP room. So we don't get to see 'em all that often.........
*perk*
Soga: Huff
094
Soga: I am not too fond of the idea of exposing myself./Especially not with so many people staring at me........
Kabu: Mh?/He kinda sounds like a frog. Ya now, it's like the guy was speaking through his nose. Weird.
*perk perk*
Soga: I chose to come forth regardless, and here's why./The cute little me couldn't watch indifferently as the Drome, my adoptive hometown was being laid to waste.
Kabu: Cute little me? .........Okaaaaay.*scratch scratch*
*perk*
Soga: You!/The old janitor lady!
Gal: !//O-Old lady?
Soga: Ah... Sorry./I meant janitor girl.//Listen. If you wanna start a festival or throw a party here/well, that is your decision. But you see*wriggle wriggle*
095
Soga: The quarrel that started because of it is not a good thing at all. | And to make matters worse, you actually revel in such conflict.........
Gal: Ugh...
Soga: Indeed?/By your fault, the Drome has been filled to the brim with ill-will and jealousy./Such a sad thing, it is.
Gal: And that's why you're going to boot me out./If you want a piece of me, act on it already. Like those Diorama folks did!
Soga: I wouldn't say such disreputable things, if I were you./They withdrew merely because I gave them a little nudge in the right direction.
Amaki: Certainly you know this........../but you can't forcibly Separate someone no matter how powerful you are.//It's at the core of the Drome's programming./Powerful people would just do whatever they please otherwise.
Soga: Yeeeaah.//But... here's a little secret, m'kay?/See, you can prod someone else into Separating willingly. | Let's take you, for example.
096
*sbaf*
Art: Wha...//ASSHOLE, WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING TO SALLY-CHAN?
*boink*
Art: Ugh...
097
Gal: Stop it./Don't touch the others. Your quarrel is with me and me alone.//Let's strip her naked cause she won't be able to bear it, right?
Hair: Sally...
Gal: Go ahead, I'm ready to show it off any time. | It's not my real body, after all./It isn't real. Just an image, that's it.
Furu: Uh-huh.../This isn't his real body either, then.
Art: Ah./Aghaa.
Furu: A human's brain features a map of their entire body, accurate down to the smallest details./Which is why the projection of it into the Drome is so true to the original.
098
Furu: A little diet, maybe?
Art: Aaaayyyyyee.
Gal: That's enough, right there. Cut the crap.
*zwooom* *tchrrrr*
*thud*
Art: Hah Hah/Hah.
Hair: Arthur.
099
Furu: You are the Witch of the Drome... I see./And you appear to have some fight in you.
Gal: Humph./And I'm not the only one who enjoys conflict, now am I?
Soga: Hey... Stop that, Furubashi-kun./You are losing control.
Amaki: At the risk of sounding repetitive, we do hate conflict./But if conflict we must... we'll show no hesitation.
*zip*
Hair: Andy.
Soga: Oh-hoh./The Combatant of Love enters the stage.
Gal: Andy, don't./You don't have to do this.
100
Gal: Please./Stop it.
*whhhhheeeeeeeeeeeooooooooosssshhhh*
Soga: You need to remember something.........
101
Soga: Even in the real world, my cute little self has the ability to move objects through sheer visualization./To say nothing of the fact that we're in the Drome here. | Surely you know what that means. Resistance is pointless.//On top of which, you are wrong./Stripping you naked...? I have no intention to abase myself to this.//It's not your nakedness I want everyone to see.*snap*
Soga: But this.
*clang*
Soga: There. Raise your hand./So that everyone can see it.
Gal: Keh.
102
Soga: Oh, my. I see traces of something here. | Shall I make the image of it a bit clearer?*snap*
*pshh*
Soga: Alice./So that's where you get your power.//In other words.. What I'm trying to say/is that I want you to stop using this to turn the Drome into a chaotic mess.//Right?Everyone agrees, am I right?
103
*chatter chatter*
Kabu: I don't./What's so wrong with doing pumps anyway?
*perk*
Kabu: Someone told me/the drugs merely flip on the switch... The rest is just your own brain at work........
104
Kabu: Whatever you see, whatever shows up has nothing to do with the drugs./It was there inside your brain all along, that's all there is to it..........
Soga: Would you look at that./That's some pretty philosophical talk for a pumphead.
Kabu: That's enough, don't you think? | You've already more than adequately proved your point.
Soga: Seeing you pumpheads taking pity of each other like this.........../I think I'm gonna cry.
105
Soga: But my greatest worry of all... /is your utter lack of balance./Like the one with the headband here, for example./His balance is out of whack. | He doesn't even know his own place in the world.//What I'm trying to say... is that people who lack balance | are unable to react suitably to any given situation...........
Kabu: Hey, there. As far as lack of balance goes, looks like the pot is calling the kettle black./My cute little self's ears can't help but perk at the sound of it.
*perk perk perk*
106
*bof*
Gal: !
Kabu: Uh...?
Hair: Heaven...
Gal: That's enough./He's just a beginner.
Soga: I am quite aware./I am merely extending a special little gift........
107
Soga: Pumphead Philosopher-kun./You are here because you wanted to evolve, are you not?//I shall grant you your wish......../Salvation.
*swoosh*
*whoop*
108
Amaki: ... You just sit back and watch./Soga-chan doesn't extend such goodwill every day. You wouldn't want to ruin that.
Andy: Uugh...
Soga: Thank you, Amaki-kun...//The rest I leave up to you.
*dududududududun*
Soga: For I am about to enter the next level/a place beyond the reach of any spoken words............
109

Soga: Hah
111
Hair: Duh...?//What's this?/He just started dancing for no reason.
Art: Haha...
Furu: You find it funny?/Why don't you laugh, then?
Amaki: Humph...
112
Furu: That's it. Laugh!/Laugh until the mirth attains its peak.
People: Haha.../Hahaha.
Furu: Ummm. | Quite the dull audience, we got here. I'm disappointed.
Hair: Uh...?
Art: What's going on, Heaven...?
Hair: Uh.
113
Gal: Kabu...?
114
Hair: What's up...?/What the hell's going on?//Hypnosis?/Just what is he doing?
Furu: Nataraja: Shiva the Dancing God.[tn: According to Wiki, "(one of) the purpose(s) of (Shiva's) dance is to release the souls of all men from the snare of illusion." There's more, but I think this one applies best to what's happening here.]/He's calling upon the Shakti that slumbers within him.
115
Hair: Shakti?[tn: Shakti is a goddess, as well as an omnipresent force of creation, change, and liberation. To quote what a famous Sage said, "Use the Force, Luke".]
Furu: Indeed... He Awakens himself, and in so doing he gains the ability to open somebody else's chakras.[tn: No, not that chakra, this isn't Naruto. Wiki it, the concept is too complex to explain in a handful of words.]/This is a dancing technique unique to Soga, that allows transmission back and forth between the other party and himself.
Hair: Wha...//No way./You mean Shaktipat? As in, Kundalini Awakening?[tn: Basically what Soga is doing, i.e Awakening another guy.]
116
*bshhh*
*bwoom*
Kabu: Ah...*wheeeeeeeee*
Kabu: Ah... Ah.
Gal: Separate.../Kabu, Separate!
117
Gal: You're in the Med-center at the dome, diving./Remember the dome. | Remember and you you'll be able to Separate./Kabu.*eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.
Amaki: Don't bother./His Throat chakra: his Vishuddha is already opening.//He's entered a realm beyond words./He can no longer tell the difference between reality and illusion.
*bwoom*
*shwiiiing*
Andy: !

*fshhhhhhh*
Hair: Whooaaaaah
*bump*
*fffffffffssssssssshhhhhhhhhh*
119
*crack*
Gal: Ah...
Hair: Wha/What the hell is that?
Amaki: The Brow Chakra, or Ajna./His Inner eye, as they call it is starting to open.//This is a field of supra-individuality that transcends the self. | There, all sense of distinction between yourself and others is gone, and you become one with the world...//In real life, attaining such a level would cause paranormal manifestations./Let' not even touch upon what would happen in the Drome.........
120
Amaki: That's right... You are in the palm of the Buddha's hand./The Drome is now a direct representation of Soga-chan's mind.
*GWWWWOOOOOOOSH*
121
*wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee*
Amaki: Now it's his turn. | Let us have a look at what a pumphead philosopher's soul looks like.
Gal: Stop.../Please stop him, I'm begging you.
Furu: Nothing to worry about. | He'll Separate automatically upon losing consciousness. ...Well, that's the likely scenario./The extreme beatitude will be too much for him to bear.
122
Kabu: Ah...
Amaki: Or not... He's putting up quite a bit of a fight./These Diorama folks never made it that far. | Perhaps I should praise you... for doing such a great job of it.
Furu: Aaawrite, don't you give up, pumphead. | Enlightenment is close at hand.
Kabu: Ha...ah.
Hair: That's totally reckless... | One mistake, and he'll go crazy.
Art: Eh.
Hair: An over-precipitous ascension during Shaktipat could result in the destruction of his sense of self./Squashed flat by the energies of his own Archetype.
*spluuurrrrrrt*
Gal: Ah...
123
*wheeeez* *splurt splurt*
Gal: No.../This is no good...
*SPLUURRRRRTT*

Kabu: Augh...

Kabu: Gasp...*PRRRRLLLLLLL*
Art: THAT is Heaven's Archetype?
Hair: The suppressed energies of his subconscious are gushing out.
Furu: Good... Purge out all the pus!/Evolve.
Gal: Stop it.../Stop it...
125
Gal: Don't resist, Kabu./Just let go./Abandon everything.*wheeeeeeeeeee*
Amaki: Do not interfere.
Gal: ...I beg you.../Separate... please...
Kabu: ...........
Amaki: That's it. Show us.../Let us see what your soul looks like.
Gal: You're mad.../You people are crazy.

Gal: Kabu?
014
Gal: What's wrong, Kabu?/Hello.
Kabu: Well...
015
Kabu: I have/that sort of feeling, like I'm being watched...
Gal: Heh./Aren't you a thin-skinned one.//That thing over there, that's Buddha's Eyes./and the Third Eye-looking thing... well, it's just a symbol./Come on. Let's get going.[tn: The Swayambunath is a temple in Kathmandu (Nepal). Roughly speaking, it is to Hindu and Buddhists what Mecca is to Muslims or Jerusalem to Muslims, Christians and Jews. Predictably it's also a popular destination for pilgrimage. On the mound at the top of the structure (stupa) a pair of eyes representing Wisdom and Compassion is painted on each side, facing all four main directions. These eyes are what people (the Japanese, at least) refer to as "Buddha's Eyes". I found no such name in English (or even in French, for that matter).]
Kabu: Let's get going, you say.../Aren't we already there? Everybody's on amp.
Gal: We're wasting our time here. This floor's pretty much one big game center.
016
Gal: To them, meditation is just a pretext to have fun on a virtual playground.//Oh well... I must say, everybody falls for it at first, though. There are plenty of kinds of amps to go around, you see.
Kabu: Plenty of 'em?
Gal: Uh-huh... For example//You have those that fulfill your mundane desires, showing you the futility of it all.
Dudes: Eegh./Ahaa...
Gal: The cathartic ones, that let you expiate for all the things you're feeling guilty about.//Some guys even come with diapers on, but these are the crazy-prepared ones.
Dude: Aaaahhh. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
017
Kabu: Huh...
Gal: But that's just fluff for the purpose of drawing in customers. The center's inner citadel is upstairs.
Kabu: Inner citadel?
Gal: Group sessions./If this was an onsen, that'd be a large public bath.
Dude: Uh. Uh. Uhuh.
Kabu: Hey./You said everybody got stuck there at first.
018
Kabu: That means you too?/Diapers, and all.
Gal: Idiot.//Only the guys do that.
Kabu: So./What do girls do?
Gal: ...........[tn: Let us not think too hard about that.:hahaha:]
Kabu: Duh?/Why are you blushing?
Gal: Forget about it.
Dudes: Please follow me. Follow me.//Oooh.//Aaah. I see./This is me.//Oh-ho.
*pew pew pew* *chirp chirp chirp*
019
Kabu: That's it?/That's the public bath...?
Gal: That's right. The "Drome".//The Synesthesia Transzone. A common illusion created by all the participants./There, you will find a world that is a reflexion, and a projection of everybody's true selves.
020
Gal: Since it's your first time, you need to go through calibration first, so you can have a chip made for you. | That chip works as a pass, with your brain's specificities memorized in it.
Clerk: Is it your first time?
Dude: Uh. Erm. Well.
Gal: Then, all you need to do is insert the chip in your prescribed amp and dive in.
Dude: Cali. Cabril[tn: The text uses the English word "calibration" directly, which maybe explains why the man's struggling to get it right. That or he's just high.]
Clerk: You mean calibration. Well, Seat 14 is currently occupied.
Gal: Well, you get the idea. Now since I'm already registered I'll be going right ahead and wait for you inside.
Kabu: Hey./Wait up... What do you mean, "inside"?
Gal: No problem./One you dive in I'll come looking for you.
021
Gal: Later, then.*crack*
Kabu: .........//Heh./Here's a lively one.//She loves it.//Lo and behold. Such enthusiasm.
Clerk: Indeed./Huhu./You'll come to enjoy it too.
Kabu: Uh-huh.../Maybe, yeah.
Clerk: There./Your seat is on the right, outside the tunnel. Number 15.
023
Voice: Drome./Drome./Drome./Drome./Drome./Drome./Drome. Drome./Welcome to the "Drome".//Eden/Eden/Eden./An Eden of meditation spun together by the participants' interconnected hearts and minds./Mind/Mind/Mind/Mind.[tn: 桃源郷 (tougenkyou) can also be translated as "Arcadia", "Shangri-La", and by extension "Utopia".]/Soul/Soul/Souls may act in concert in this place, working towards one another's spiritual elevation and thereby set their spirits free./Free/Free/Free/Free/Free/Free.[tn: WTF WTF WTF WTF.:hahaha:]

Other voice: Complete/Complete/Complete/Complete

Voice: Calibration complete.
Kabu: Yeah, yeah, that's right. | I love it. Yes I do.
Voice: Take your microchip off the slot and make your way into the lounge.
026
Folks: .........Where.//Where is God?//In the Land of Light?//No. He's still on the way.//Really? I can't believe it. For real? Today's the day?//The time is upon us! The time to prepare and strive towards self-purification is now, this instant.
Kabu: Haha... What the heck? They're not even on amps and they're still creaming themselves.//Or maybe they're high on something else.
Hair: They worship the Living God.[tn: Hey! I don't remember asking for worshipers.:huh:]
027
Kabu: Uh...
Hair: The Living God... A one-of-a-kind, transcendent being./Overwhelming in His radiance. They say those who are touched by His light experience ecstasy, along with total purification and the salvation of their souls...[tn: Salvation in the Buddhist sense of the term.]
Kabu: ..........
Hair: And the man shows up here at the Drome, from time to time.//Well... That's how the rumor goes, anyway. Never got to meet him personally.
Kabu: Hewww...
Hair: It's your first time here... isn't it?
Kabu: Yeah... Fresh out of calibration./You been here for long?
Hair: I've been coming and going for something like a couple of years, now./I forgot. My name's Imai Jun.//Even after two years the path remains unforgiving and salvation still lies very far, far ahead.
Art: Image![tn: Pronounced like the French word, i.e "ee-maj". But I'll keep calling him "Hair": Shorter that way.]
028
Art: So you did come./What are you doing here?
Hair: Hi, Arthur. How are you doing?
Art: Nevermind how I'm doing. Just listen.//Andy said today was the day of Divine Advent./You know about 'em, don't you?/I mean, about Andy's precognition powers and how great they are./Huh?
Hair: Uh-huh./That so, Andy?//Mh?/...Aaah.
029
Hair: This is a new participant. His name is, uh...
Andy: KAAAAATSU![tn: In Zen Buddhism, the cry of "Katsu" is uttered by those who achieve Enlightenment, or by a mentor seeking to shock his students into attaining it. Those who are familiar with the Narutoverse will no doubt recognize the word.]//You./You're a pumphead, you are. Here on rehab?
Kabu: .........
Art: Oooh./The Third Eye!
Kabu: Nah... Well. | I mean.
Hair: Pft*doooong*
Art: Oh./Got some new free spots!*doooong*
030
Art: 35...53.../Let's go. Look. That's four empty seats. Perfect.//Hurry up, Image! | You don't wanna miss out on the Living God, do you?
Hair: Well, then./Shall we go?
Kabu: From Imai Jun... to Image, is it......?
Hair: Yeah./It's common practice to address people by their nicknames, around here.//Speaking of which, Arthur stands for Asada Masanari, and Andy for[tn: It makes more sense in Japanese, where "asa" and "Arthur" sound a lot more similar.]
Kabu: Andou?
Hair: Correct./Andou Hozumi.[tn: No reading tips are provided for the names, so I go for whatever sounds more likely.]
Kabu: Pretty simple, isn't it.
Hair: Yep. The names... Are just that. Names.//The name is by no means the person itself./The more you meditate, the more you find out it doesn't hold that much of a meaning... That anything would do fine. /From there...finding a suitable name pretty much comes naturally.
031
Hair: For all the fancy talk about names, however/you're still gonna need something people can call you by. So what will it be?
Kabu: ........ Eeeer... Um...
Hair: Haha... Sorry. That's my bad./Being asked to come up with a nick on such short notice must suck.
Kabu: Heaven.
Hair: Eh?
Kabu: Heaven./That's my name.
Hair: ...I see./Can't get any more spontaneous than that.//Alright, then Heaven./You just take that seat.//Put on your amp and insert the ID chip in its slot. The seat will take care of the rest and carry you to the Drome./Equipping these amps is not much of a change compared to those you'd buy at your local store.
032
Hair: The high, however is a bit different./Oh, well... Just dive in. You'll find out for yourself.//Well, I'm off. See you at the Drome./Have a nice trip!
Kabu: .............*scratch scratch*
Kabu: Have a nice trip, eh.........?//I think I've heard that one before. Somewhere.*clank*

036
*vvvvzzzzzzz/vzzzzzuuuummm*
Voice: Please align your own Form/along with the Macroform.
037
Kabu: Align yourself this, attune yourself that. | But how am I supposed to go about it?
Voice: You'll find a controller on the armrest, next to your right hand./Use it to add your own Form to the Macroform.
Kabu: !
038
Kabu: Heh. | That was very kind of you.*click click*
Kabu: Oooh./It's working.
*beeeeep*
Voice: Lock on./That's it for the controller.//Next, you need to visualize./Synchronize your Form's pulsations with those of the Macroform.
Kabu: I see./That's the deal, isn't it...//Synchronize./Synchronize...*vzzuummm/vzzzzuuuum*
Kabu: You make it sound so damn easy./It's not matching at all.
039
Voice: Your respiration is erratic./Breathe deeply. You'll want to resort to belly breathing.
Kabu: Belly breathing.../(That's right...//This is no game shit./It's meditation.)
*huff...*
Kabu: (Still my heart...//Match)/Pheewww/(the pulsations...//No.//There's no point in trying to force a match to happen./What I need is to visualize........//Abandon yourself.)

Hair: The high, however is a bit different./Oh, well... Just dive in. You'll find out for yourself.
Kabu: Duh?
Hair: Well, I'm off. See you at the Drome. | Have a nice trip!*ding dong*
Kabu: That scene....../I just saw it happen.
*clank*
Hair: Excuse me! | I'll just let myself in.//Hi there./Would this be your place?
047
Hair: Hum... That is quite a sight.
Kabu: ............
Hair: Ah. Don't mind me.//I see. This is where you usually watch TV./Can I have the remote for a second?
Kabu: ........
Hair: Thank you.
*plic*
Hair: This is what the Drome is supposed to look like, normally.../Natural, organic scenery. | Because quite a lot of people enjoy that sort of environment, you see.
048
Hair: So when I saw such an urban landscape popping out of nowhere/I thought maybe...... I should pay a visit. | You know, just to make sure.
Kabu: Uh... Uh.
Hair: You are confused, perhaps.//I can understand./Everyone is a bit surprised, the first time. | You hardly expected to have such vivid memories.
Kabu: Memories...?
Hair: When you dive for the first time/your unconscious brings back up some environment you're closely attached to, whichever place feels the most secure.//Yep. In other words, this room/acts as a buffer zone, so to speak. Before you can break into the Transzone proper.
Kabu: Haha/Hahaha.
Hair: Good./It's finally starting to sink in./Look.
049
Kabu: !
Hair: Your consciousness is opening up to the Drome./Why don't you take another step forward? Make your own way in?
Art: Heeey./Hellooooo.//Get out, will ya./You can't shut yourself away forever.
Hair: They're even calling us from the other side./Shall we go?
Kabu: Hahahaha. Hahaha.
050
Hair: Welcome to the Synesthesia Transzone./Welcome to the "Drome"!//Hi, sorry for the wait.
Art: Incredible. That went down pretty smoothly.
051
Art: You're taking it in pretty good, for a first-timer./You did have all that training from doing pumps. Maybe that's it. Hahaha...
Hair: Oh yeah. We don't need this anymore.
Kabu: Uh...
Hair: I'll erase it.
*peeeww*
Hair: Now... this./Now to deal with this product of the industry...//How about...*clamp/clamp/clamp*
*bffwwwooosshhh*
052
*sshhpaaaaaang* *clap clap clap*
Hair: Bah... Anyone could pull these tricks, around here. | It's all about visualization.
Art: Which is to say, the first goal of the Drome/is to imprint your conscious mind with what it truly feels like to turn your visions into reality.
Hair: If you can return with that feeling into the real world/it can help you develop your psychic powers, so to speak. That's the idea, anyway.
053
Hair: There's something of a pitfall to it, though.
Kabu: Whoa
Angels: Ciao.♥ Newbie-san.[tn: In Italian, "Ciao" can mean "Hello" as well as "Goodbye".]//Come on. | Stop making fun of the new guys.//But they started it. Launching fireworks, and all.
Hair: People who gain such powers/tend to remain caught up.//That's why, you ought to come to terms with the powers you get without them confusing you. | And that, my friend, is the true meaning of the Drome./Gaining power, then letting go of it all, as a base desire. | "Purification".
Art: ...Well yeah. Sorry to butt in the middle of such an inspired talk | but thing is, speaking of base desires, the source of our desire comes today.
Hair: Uh-huh.
Art: There, look. Her influence even extends all the way here.
054
Hair: ...It can't be./Sally?[tn: Sally the Witch, I presume. An anime first run in 1966-67, and the first one to feature the magical girl theme.]
Art: Righto. | She never manifested all the way here./This year's the first time, isn't it?
Hair: Hey, come on!/Let's move it, guys!
Kabu: Who's that?
Art: A Witch. We call her Sally-chan.
Hair: A Trickster Angel who lavishes dreams all around, with her powers beyond compare.[tn: Itazura Tenshi (Choppo the Mischievous Angel) is another vintage anime by Kyooka Sumiko, about... an angel who pulls pranks, unsurprisingly.]/You're a lucky man, Heaven. | You get to meet Sally on your first participation.
055
Dudes: Did you say Sally?/Sally's coming?
Art: We should fly, maybe?
Hair: You're right. But...
Art: Yeah, I guess Heaven can't.
Hair: I'm wondering about that. But it's just his first day, after all.
Andy: Let's fly.
Hair: Hold it, Andy. Heaven can't...
Kabu: Wo/woa
Andy: He can fly. Yes he can!
Art: Andy's really serious about Sally, he is.
Kabu: Whooooaaaaah.
Hair: Aaah, crap.//Visualize, Heaven! | See yourself flying./Arthur, grab his arms.
Art: Aye, Sir.
Hair: Let's go. One, twooo
056
Hair: Three
Art: Yahooooo.//Hahaaa. Yeaaah.
Hair: Yes. That's it. | Keep visualizing./There you have it. | You're a genius at this, Heaven.
Kabu: How large......../The Drome is quite something.
Hair: Yep... Newcomers enter at the most remote section of the Drome, you see./We're getting closer to the central area, though.
057
Hair: Story goes, with the creation of the first neuro-amps, someone went to the utmost limits of their spiritual evolution./The Drome established templates out of this transcendant being's superior state of mind and converted them into a program...
Art: In other words, that distinguished person is the one we call our Living God.//And that's why... if there's any truth to Andy's predictions/that God might well descend upon us wherever Sally-chan happens to be.
Hair: I see. | That sounds plausible enough.
Art: Ah. There. I can see it!
058
Hair: Whoops. | Wait up. Wait up!/Can't say I didn't expect it. We have a problem, folks.
Kabu: A problem?
Hair: Well... It's a lot more austere around here, usually./This place is meant to have a holy atmosphere about it.//Look. Over there./Around the fountain. The mood there is different from everywhere else, isn't it?
059
Hair: The Sacred Fount. | ...Right at the center of the Drome./So many veterans assembled there, visualizing as if their lives depended on it. | Yet they can't hold a candle to Sally in terms of power.
Andy: Pfffffuh.
Art: Ah. | Andy's laughing.
Hair: Bwahahaha.
Art: Good going, Sally.
Kabu: Woops.
Hair: Uh. Hey!//Fly, Heaven. Fly!
Art: Visualize. Visualize.
Kabu: Ah./Ah.
*poof*
Kabu: Uh?
060
Gal: Ya-hooooo.☆/Don't overdo it, guys.
Boys: SALLY
Art: -chan.
Gal: Oh my. Kabu!//I didn't expect you to make it here so fast.
Boys: Huh?
Kabu: ...You?/You're Sally?
061
Monk: Accursed Witch./Foul disturbance unto the Drome...
062
Gal: YEEEEHAAAAAAAH
People: Yeaaah. Sally./Sally, welcome back.
063
People: It's been half a year, where have you been? | We thought you'd attained Salvation or something.
Gal: Haven't had such a wild party in a long time. Hell yeah.//Today's festival day.
People: Hey, you already done, Sally?
Gal: Not yet. Just taking a break!
Art: Still rocking as hard as ever, Sally-chan.
Hair: For someone gone so long, it's really not showing.
Gal: Yep... My intuitions have finally returned.//Well, I've got the basics down anyway.
Hair: Gotta say I'm surprised, though./Can't say I expected you and Heaven to already know each other.
Gal: Hm? Heaven?
064
Gal: Ah-hah.../You go by Heaven, then. | Hummm.
Kabu: Tsk.//Shut up./Look who's talking, "Sally".
Gal: I don't see where the problem is! I'm a witch.
Kabu: Suuure. That explains it all.
Gal: What kind of attitude is that?
Andy: Um, excuse me./I have a question!
Gal: Yes?
Andy: Ahem. | Do you mind telling me what's going on?/Between you and Heaven, I mean.
Kabu: Dealer and customer.
Guys: UUUUUUH
Art: And which is which, exactly?
065
Kabu: Well, I think it's pretty obvious./I'm the
Gal: Clam it.//Let me clarify. Eeeeerm. He is | Well, he's a little brother of sorts, and a pain in the neck.
Kabu: Heh. | Yeah, sure.//That's right! Since I'm already bothering you/A witch like you should be able to whip out a cold beer for me. Just like that. | My throat is parched up already.
Hair: Well, Heaven, that's
Gal: Why don't you make your own?/Everyone's a witch, here in the Drome.
Kabu: Ah... Really.
Gal: Really./Makes for some nice visualization training, don'tcha think?
Kabu: Visualize, eh.../Visualize........ Alright.//(A mug with water drops on it./>Cold.</Real heavy./>Pale-ale.</With a lot of foam...[tn: If you know a thing or two about beer terminology, now's the time to show it. I could use the help.]
066
Kabu: I did it.../Hey, I did it.
*clap clap clap*
Kabu: A beer./Cheeeeers.//Gulp//Gulp. Gulp.//Gulp//BWAAAAH//Hey, that didn't do anything at all./Feels like drinking air. | It just looks the part but it's not real!
Gal: Yep.../An illusion.
067
Gal: Everything you create is just an illusion./I'll push it even further: even your thirst is an illusion./Because you don't have a real body in the first place.
Kabu: ...My body./doesn't exist...
Hair: You are confident in your own existence, aren't you?//This here is an illusion, however./In this, the Drome and real life are similar.
Kabu: Similar...?
Hair: When you entered the Drome | I assume you temporarily left any illusion of self behind.
Kabu: Ah...
068
Hair: Yes... And you reconstructed a model of yourself once inside./Along with your room.
*chirp chirp* *pew pew pew* *chirp*
*flap flap flap* *peep peep peep* **gwooooooOOOOOSSSHHHH*[tn: Good luck sorting that out. :dizzy:]
069
*WOOOOOOOOOSSSHHH*
Gal: Everyone has already learned something important the moment they entered the Drome. | But not everyone realizes it./Confused as they are by the Drome's magic.
Dude: Heeeey, Sally. | You already done having fun?//They're making a comeback.
070
*DUDUDUDUDUDUDUDUDUN*
Art: Duh. When did that happen?
Hair: Oh-hoo...

Hair: Yep... We showed an opening, and they jumped right into it.
Art: Uh?/Hey, wait a minute. | I can't fly?
Monk: Spare thine efforts... Whosoever standeth within our Barrier shalt be made powerless!/Ye shall now sink to the bottom of the earth.
Art: Eeek.*crack*
074
Hair: Whoaaaah.*crack crack*
Andy: It's crumbling away.*BROM*
Gal: Fine. | If that's how you wanna play it, let's play it that way./Alright. Pay attention, Kabu.//No, I mean. Eeeerrrm/Heaven.*scratch scratch*
Kabu: Bah, never mind that...
Gal: What they want is a Utopia./Holy item, free of impurity, and all that jazz. | A diorama set for their meditation purposes, in other words.
075
Gal: I discard all that rubbish/in favor of letting yourself know that everything is an illusion.//This is the way I do things. | This is my awakening.//Sally-style meditation mode.*BOOOOOW*

Monk: Kh...*gwooosh gwoosh gwoosh*
Monk: Damn you, Witch... We aren't done yet./I'm gonna kick you out of the Drome or die trying.//I'll see to it personally.
Horse: This is unbecoming..
Monk: Uh.
Horse: Resentment and bitterness, envy and jealousy.//These are the roots whence derive all conflicts./All these things are unfit for the Drome.
Monk: Who/Who are you...?
082
Horses: The Drome is originally meant/as a place for people to pursue Salvation and Enlightenment.
Monk: Hic//Wh wha-wha-wha
Horses: People who should let go of the secular world and its delusions/Are abasing themselves in a petty squabble for hegemony./On the other hand, those who stirred the embers of war
Monks: Who are you. Just who in the world are you?
Horses: They pose another problem, that much can't be denied.*Wooooooooosh*
*wooooooooosh*
Horse: Yes. Which is why, for the present
083
Horse: The bones of contention are to be removed...........
*PFWWWOOOOOSH*
084
Hair: Incorrigible! | These guys will never learn.
Gal: Wait./Something's not right.
085
Hair: What........ are they doing?
086
Kabu: Um./Hey... Aren't they kinda glowing somewhat?
Hair: ...No way!
Kabu: What?
Hair: Well... The story goes that in the Drome,/those who are close to Salvation give out an aura that is visible to the naked eye.
Kabu: Seriously?
Art: So they're all..........
087
Monks: Ah...//Agh
*vzum*
*vzum vzum vzum vzum vzum vzum *
088
*vzum vzum*
Hair: Separation...
Kabu: Salvation?
Art: Not salvation. Separation from the Drome. | They withdrew back into the real world.[tn: "Separation" is less accurate than "withdrawal", which is what Image actually meant here. But the word "withdrawal" makes Kabu's confusion and Arthur's comment come off as unwarranted and pointless, as they're really hard to mistake for one another.]
Kabu: Heeey. Wait for meeee.
089
Kabu: Wooops.
Hair: Gone without a trace......... | And the merry-go-round too.
Art: This is weird. | A bug in the program, maybe?
Kabu: Huh?//Ain't it just a matter of visualizing?/Vanishing them, I mean.
Hair: To alter something or make it disappear/you must have enough juice to overpower the one who created it.//And I seriously doubt these Diorama fuckers can pack that kind of muscle.........

Kabu: Mh?/He kinda sounds like a frog. Ya now, it's like the guy was speaking through his nose. Weird.
*perk perk*
Soga: I chose to come forth regardless, and here's why./The cute little me couldn't watch indifferently as the Drome, my adoptive hometown was being laid to waste.
Kabu: Cute little me? .........Okaaaaay.*scratch scratch*
*perk*
Soga: You!/The old janitor lady!
Gal: !//O-Old lady?
Soga: Ah... Sorry./I meant janitor girl.//Listen. If you wanna start a festival or throw a party here/well, that is your decision. But you see*wriggle wriggle*
095
Soga: The quarrel that started because of it is not a good thing at all. | And to make matters worse, you actually revel in such conflict.........
Gal: Ugh...
Soga: Indeed?/By your fault, the Drome has been filled to the brim with ill-will and jealousy./Such a sad thing, it is.
Gal: And that's why you're going to boot me out./If you want a piece of me, act on it already. Like those Diorama folks did!
Soga: I wouldn't say such disreputable things, if I were you./They withdrew merely because I gave them a little nudge in the right direction.
Amaki: Certainly you know this........../but you can't forcibly Separate someone no matter how powerful you are.//It's at the core of the Drome's programming./Powerful people would just do whatever they please otherwise.
Soga: Yeeeaah.//But... here's a little secret, m'kay?/See, you can prod someone else into Separating willingly. | Let's take you, for example.
096
*sbaf*
Art: Wha...//ASSHOLE, WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING TO SALLY-CHAN?
*boink*
Art: Ugh...
097
Gal: Stop it./Don't touch the others. Your quarrel is with me and me alone.//Let's strip her naked cause she won't be able to bear it, right?
Hair: Sally...
Gal: Go ahead, I'm ready to show it off any time. | It's not my real body, after all./It isn't real. Just an image, that's it.
Furu: Uh-huh.../This isn't his real body either, then.
Art: Ah./Aghaa.
Furu: A human's brain features a map of their entire body, accurate down to the smallest details./Which is why the projection of it into the Drome is so true to the original.
098
Furu: A little diet, maybe?
Art: Aaaayyyyyee.
Gal: That's enough, right there. Cut the crap.
*zwooom* *tchrrrr*
*thud*
Art: Hah Hah/Hah.
Hair: Arthur.
099
Furu: You are the Witch of the Drome... I see./And you appear to have some fight in you.
Gal: Humph./And I'm not the only one who enjoys conflict, now am I?
Soga: Hey... Stop that, Furubashi-kun./You are losing control.
Amaki: At the risk of sounding repetitive, we do hate conflict./But if conflict we must... we'll show no hesitation.
*zip*
Hair: Andy.
Soga: Oh-hoh./The Combatant of Love enters the stage.
Gal: Andy, don't./You don't have to do this.
100
Gal: Please./Stop it.
*whhhhheeeeeeeeeeeooooooooosssshhhh*
Soga: You need to remember something.........
101
Soga: Even in the real world, my cute little self has the ability to move objects through sheer visualization./To say nothing of the fact that we're in the Drome here. | Surely you know what that means. Resistance is pointless.//On top of which, you are wrong./Stripping you naked...? I have no intention to abase myself to this.//It's not your nakedness I want everyone to see.*snap*
Soga: But this.
*clang*
Soga: There. Raise your hand./So that everyone can see it.
Gal: Keh.
102
Soga: Oh, my. I see traces of something here. | Shall I make the image of it a bit clearer?*snap*
*pshh*
Soga: Alice./So that's where you get your power.//In other words.. What I'm trying to say/is that I want you to stop using this to turn the Drome into a chaotic mess.//Right?Everyone agrees, am I right?
103
*chatter chatter*
Kabu: I don't./What's so wrong with doing pumps anyway?
*perk*
Kabu: Someone told me/the drugs merely flip on the switch... The rest is just your own brain at work........
104
Kabu: Whatever you see, whatever shows up has nothing to do with the drugs./It was there inside your brain all along, that's all there is to it..........
Soga: Would you look at that./That's some pretty philosophical talk for a pumphead.
Kabu: That's enough, don't you think? | You've already more than adequately proved your point.
Soga: Seeing you pumpheads taking pity of each other like this.........../I think I'm gonna cry.
105
Soga: But my greatest worry of all... /is your utter lack of balance./Like the one with the headband here, for example./His balance is out of whack. | He doesn't even know his own place in the world.//What I'm trying to say... is that people who lack balance | are unable to react suitably to any given situation...........
Kabu: Hey, there. As far as lack of balance goes, looks like the pot is calling the kettle black./My cute little self's ears can't help but perk at the sound of it.
*perk perk perk*
106
*bof*
Gal: !
Kabu: Uh...?
Hair: Heaven...
Gal: That's enough./He's just a beginner.
Soga: I am quite aware./I am merely extending a special little gift........
107
Soga: Pumphead Philosopher-kun./You are here because you wanted to evolve, are you not?//I shall grant you your wish......../Salvation.
*swoosh*
*whoop*
108
Amaki: ... You just sit back and watch./Soga-chan doesn't extend such goodwill every day. You wouldn't want to ruin that.
Andy: Uugh...
Soga: Thank you, Amaki-kun...//The rest I leave up to you.
*dududududududun*
Soga: For I am about to enter the next level/a place beyond the reach of any spoken words............
109
*gwoooooooooosh*
110
*CLAP*
*tilt tilt*
Soga: Hah
111
Hair: Duh...?//What's this?/He just started dancing for no reason.
Art: Haha...
Furu: You find it funny?/Why don't you laugh, then?
Amaki: Humph...
112
Furu: That's it. Laugh!/Laugh until the mirth attains its peak.
People: Haha.../Hahaha.
Furu: Ummm. | Quite the dull audience, we got here. I'm disappointed.
Hair: Uh...?
Art: What's going on, Heaven...?
Hair: Uh.
113
Gal: Kabu...?
114
Hair: What's up...?/What the hell's going on?//Hypnosis?/Just what is he doing?
Furu: Nataraja: Shiva the Dancing God.[tn: According to Wiki, "(one of) the purpose(s) of (Shiva's) dance is to release the souls of all men from the snare of illusion." There's more, but I think this one applies best to what's happening here.]/He's calling upon the Shakti that slumbers within him.
115
Hair: Shakti?[tn: Shakti is a goddess, as well as an omnipresent force of creation, change, and liberation. To quote what a famous Sage said, "Use the Force, Luke".]
Furu: Indeed... He Awakens himself, and in so doing he gains the ability to open somebody else's chakras.[tn: No, not that chakra, this isn't Naruto. Wiki it, the concept is too complex to explain in a handful of words.]/This is a dancing technique unique to Soga, that allows transmission back and forth between the other party and himself.
Hair: Wha...//No way./You mean Shaktipat? As in, Kundalini Awakening?[tn: Basically what Soga is doing, i.e Awakening another guy.]
116
*bshhh*
*bwoom*
Kabu: Ah...*wheeeeeeeee*
Kabu: Ah... Ah.
Gal: Separate.../Kabu, Separate!
117
Gal: You're in the Med-center at the dome, diving./Remember the dome. | Remember and you you'll be able to Separate./Kabu.*eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.
Amaki: Don't bother./His Throat chakra: his Vishuddha is already opening.//He's entered a realm beyond words./He can no longer tell the difference between reality and illusion.
*bwoom*
*shwiiiing*
Andy: !
118
*fshhhhhhh*
Hair: Whooaaaaah
*bump*
*fffffffffssssssssshhhhhhhhhh*
119
*crack*
Gal: Ah...
Hair: Wha/What the hell is that?
Amaki: The Brow Chakra, or Ajna./His Inner eye, as they call it is starting to open.//This is a field of supra-individuality that transcends the self. | There, all sense of distinction between yourself and others is gone, and you become one with the world...//In real life, attaining such a level would cause paranormal manifestations./Let' not even touch upon what would happen in the Drome.........
120
Amaki: That's right... You are in the palm of the Buddha's hand./The Drome is now a direct representation of Soga-chan's mind.
*GWWWWOOOOOOOSH*
121
*wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee*
Amaki: Now it's his turn. | Let us have a look at what a pumphead philosopher's soul looks like.
Gal: Stop.../Please stop him, I'm begging you.
Furu: Nothing to worry about. | He'll Separate automatically upon losing consciousness. ...Well, that's the likely scenario./The extreme beatitude will be too much for him to bear.
122
Kabu: Ah...
Amaki: Or not... He's putting up quite a bit of a fight./These Diorama folks never made it that far. | Perhaps I should praise you... for doing such a great job of it.
Furu: Aaawrite, don't you give up, pumphead. | Enlightenment is close at hand.
Kabu: Ha...ah.
Hair: That's totally reckless... | One mistake, and he'll go crazy.
Art: Eh.
Hair: An over-precipitous ascension during Shaktipat could result in the destruction of his sense of self./Squashed flat by the energies of his own Archetype.
*spluuurrrrrrt*
Gal: Ah...
123
*wheeeez* *splurt splurt*
Gal: No.../This is no good...
*SPLUURRRRRTT*
Furu: Oh-ho...
Kabu: Augh...
124
*squirt/pshht/splotch*
Kabu: Gasp...*PRRRRLLLLLLL*
Art: THAT is Heaven's Archetype?
Hair: The suppressed energies of his subconscious are gushing out.
Furu: Good... Purge out all the pus!/Evolve.
Gal: Stop it.../Stop it...
125
Gal: Don't resist, Kabu./Just let go./Abandon everything.*wheeeeeeeeeee*
Amaki: Do not interfere.
Gal: ...I beg you.../Separate... please...
Kabu: ...........
Amaki: That's it. Show us.../Let us see what your soul looks like.
Gal: You're mad.../You people are crazy.
126

Gal: Don't run away./Please, we can change this if we all work at it. | All we need is focused visualization.
Hair: Sally.

Gal: Please,everyone. We have to stop Kabu./We have to stop Heaven.

Hair: That's just... | He's powerful enough to obliterate 'em Masters. How could we?
Gal: Together./We must all visualize in accord...

Not for the time being./What is the meaning of this? Hell, just let US contact them, then.
