If you’ve ever wanted an English translation for a Japanese song but can’t find a good one anywhere, you’ve come to the right place!

In addition to translating over 4200 Japanese songs into English for fun since 2013, I’m also a professional translator who works with major record labels (and more!) in Japan. By commissioning me, I can promise you a professional-level translation for your favorite song ❤️
