Deer and Deer Crackers
Feb. 20th, 2020 03:06 pmTSUMUGI: There are a lot of deer here.
IORI: Such round and cute eyes…
TAMAKI: Iorin, you like deer?
IORI: …...Cough. Even though they’re used to humans, please be careful around them. They might steal your food if you’re not paying attention!
TAMAKI: Seriously?! I’ll protect my snacks if it's the last thing I do!
SOUGO: Tamaki-kun’s bag is full of snacks.
NAGI: There are so many roaming deer in Nara. Humans and deer living in coexistence is beautiful!
IORI: It seems that ever since long ago, Nara has worshiped deer as the gods’ messengers.
TSUMUGI: They seem to be selling deer crackers, so why don’t we buy some? Deer will flock to us if we do.
NAGI: OK, I will buy some!
TAMAKI: Me too~. I wanna know how it tastes.
IORI: Tastes…? I hope I’m wrong, but is Yotsuba-san planning on eating the deer crackers?
SOUGO: I know we’re talking about Tamaki-kun, but I think he’s smarter than that...
TAMAKI: I bought them~.
NAGI: Come on. The crackers are here.
TAMAKI: Whoa! A lot of them came over! AHH! It tried to eat the stack instead of the one I held out to it!
NAGI: I am scared of my own charisma, for both deer and ladies hopelessly fall in love with me.
TAMAKI: They’re stealing crackers from me! Sou-chan, I’m scared! Help me!!
IORI: The deer have changed direction and are moving towards Rokuya-san and Yotsuba-san.
SOUGO: Tamaki-kun, calm down! You’re tall so just hold the stack of crackers above your head!
TAMAKI: Like this?
SOUGO: Yes, and just hold out the amount you want to give them!
TAMAKI: ….Ooooh. They’re eating a bunch.
NAGI: OH! Before they eat, they even bow their heads! As expected of Japanese deer. They have the heart of the Japanese people.
SOUGO: Apparently they bow their heads because they’re giving out a sign that they want food. Then tourists give them food because they’re happy at the gesture.
TSUMUGI: They’re such polite deer.
IORI: They are trained deer. They probably learned it from others after living near the city for so long.
TAMAKI: ….Pfft, pfftt.
TSUMUGI: Tamaki-san, what’s wrong?!
TAMAKI: It tastes bad! The taste is weird and the texture’s crumbly.
IORI: Yotsuba-san… You really ate it…!
TAMAKI: Because the deer were eating it like it was really delicious...
SOUGO: I don’t think it’s dangerous to humans, but it probably isn’t tasty. I heard it’s delicious if you mix cat food with mayonnaise, though.
NAGI: Sougo! Don’t tell me you’ve crossed that line!
SOUGO: No, of course I haven’t. I’ve eaten a lot of bean sprouts before, but cat food is expensive.
TAMAKI: So are you saying that you’d eat it if it was cheap…
*~*~*~*~*
where do I even start with this lol this event is...wild.
This is the Nara prefecture event, which most likely takes place in Nara Park. It's famous for the deer that live there and is a very popular tourist attraction. I might actually want to go back to revise this translation sometime later as it's been a while since I've translated this. I do want to go back into the game to check the event again and see if I made any mistakes. But for now here you go. ^^
My last update was in June 2019 which was a while ago. I'll do my best to keep updating my blog again because I actually do enjoy doing these translations and would like to do it for other series as well (not just IDOLiSH7!). My goal right now is to get the translations that I have on my twitter lycheeflowers and my drafts up on this blog within the next few weeks.
