From-scratch fansubs & comprehensive typesetting for **The iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls U149**, with new original song translations. Enjoy! 😭 **Video:** Crunchyroll (1-12), Amazon (7.5 Recap) **Script:** Anon from the U149 /a/ threads **Typesetting, Additional TL, TLC:** eli **Song styling, Karaoke:** Anon, eli **QC:** eli, Anon, /@/non Dialogue, lyrics, typesetting and song styling, etc. have been revised and improved for all episodes from the individual releases. These v2s aren't quite the "final" version of the show (there's a little more TS work still to do) but I've been incredibly busy, preparing to move internationally, and I didn't want to delay the batch any further. A final v3 release will happen when the BDs finish coming out and someone makes a good-quality x265 encode, and when I find the time. Please leave any final QC fixes or general feedback here, or get in touch via the Information link above. [These](https://files.catbox.moe/9k0cfm.txt) are the currently-known fixes that will be made. If anyone's interested in encoding the BDs, please contact me, or just upload the raws here since the BDMVs are publicly available (so far).

[A dream] --- #### Translation/cultural notes - _#04:_ At 11:11, the sound is Momoka getting hit by a _[keisaku](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keisaku)_ (by the priest of the temple, as part of the [batsu game](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batsu_game)). - _#09:_ At 17:35, Producer gives Kaoru a _[hanamaru](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O_mark#Extended_system)_ ("flower-circle" mark) drawn on her pizza as a form of encouragement/praise, and variations of this mark are referenced in the ED title & lyrics. - _#12:_ At 14:00, Mio's line "Yo, [name]-ya!" is what's known as an _omukou_ in kabuki. This is a phrase shouted toward actors during a scene's climax to liven up the play.

It was really a _lot_ of work. (Thanks to you especially, Miria.) But it was also a blast, a great introduction to iM@S for me, and I learned a lot in the process too! Thanks for watching. _"Kids, kids, kids…!!!"_ P.S. Haru best girl.
