Da Capo II promo video is out! Go download it now dammit!

D.C. II

The first half of the video is just scenes from the original game, but the second half is where all the Good Stuff ™ are. The new OP by yozuca* is good, but I can’t seem to locate the song title. If I have to take a guess at the title, I’d say “Kirari Sakura Yuki no Mau” since that is the first line of the chorus. Translations and screenshots of the promo video after the jump.

Part 1 (the song played for the first part is just the original D.C. OP, “Da Capo ~dai 2 botan no chikai~“)

お兄ちゃんへ
Dear Oniichan,
なんだかいろんなことがあったね。
A lot of things have happened.
長いような短いような、今考えるとちょっと複雑な気持ち。
It has been a long, and yet short, time and it overwhelms me with many emotions to think about it.
でもこれだけは間違えない。
But one thing is for certain,
みんなと会えてとても楽しかった。
I had a lot of fun after meeting everyone.
・・・・・・えへへ、なんかちょっとはずかしいや。
Hehe, this feels a little embarrassing.
ありあとう。
Thank you.
もうアメリカに行かなきゃ・・・・・・。
Now I have to leave for America……
さよならだね、お兄ちゃん。
This is goodbye, Oniichan.
――ずっとずっと好きっだったよ
–I’ve always loved you
もう一緒にいれなくなっちゃうけど、
Though we can’t be together anymore,
きっとお兄ちゃんなら大丈夫だよね。
Oniichan, you will be alright.
音夢ちゃんとしあわせになってね。
Live happily with Nemu, okay?
約束だよ。
It’s a promise.
ボク絶対また帰ってくるよ
I’ll definitely return
そのときも変わらず、優しいお兄ちゃんでいてね
When I do, please be the same gentle Oniichan, okay?

Part 2 (there’s no onscreen text, so I translated the new OP)

Original

ひらり花に舞う雪と桜に思いを乗せて
桜の花 一片の雪 あれが君の笑顔を

誓い合った あの木の下で 永久にこの夢を
二人出逢えたのは こんな季節だね
あの日あの場所で 幸せのときめき繰り返して

きらり桜雪の舞う 愛に包まれたら
きっと輝いているよ 恋する思いは
きらり桜雪の舞う 大切な明日を
君と歩み続けよう まっすぐ絡めていくストリー

English

I send my feelings to the snow dancing gracefully around the flowers and the sakura tree.
The sakura blossom, a flake of snow, they brought a smile to your face.

Under the tree we pledged ourselves to each other, we make this dream last forever.
It was in this same season that the two of us first met.
On that day, at that place, our hearts beat with happiness once again.

The sparkling sakura and the dance of snowflakes, wrap them with love
And the feelings of affection will shine brightly.
The sparkling sakura and the dance of snowflakes, for our precious tomorrow,
I will walk with you for ever, straight into this entwining story.
