The title of "I was a Cat, I was a Fish," is actually a pun on the title of a book by one of Japan's greatest authors, Natsume Sooseki: "Wagahai wa Neko de Aru" (I Am a Cat).

Goldfish Catching: Goldfish catching is a popular game at summer fairs in Japan. For 100 yen, you get a paper net and a small bowl. In front of you is a large tank filled with goldfish. You try to catch as many goldfish as you can with the paper net. But the paper net rips really easily...

Ushiko and Umao: the two lovers who don't want to be separated from each other are a running joke from the TV series. Their names are puns on "Cow" and "Horse," respectively.

One of the opening animation sequences is an adaptation of a scene from the first episode of the TV series, and shows how Kyosuke and Madoka first met. Her red straw hat got caught by a sudden breeze, and Kyosuke caught it while counting the stairs up to his new apartment building. This led to his first argument with Madoka, when he said there were 100 steps, and she insisted there were only 99. He finally compromised by saying he would settle for 99.5 steps. In these OVAs, the sequence is shown in black and white, with film deliberately made to look old, to give a sense of remembrance and nostalgia.

As with a lot of words borrowed from other languages, "boyfriend" and "girlfriend" do not have quite the same meaning in Japanese as they do in English. In Japanese, they refer to platonic friends who just happen to be (usually) of the opposite sex. To indicate actual lovers, original Japanese words are typically used, if any reference is made at all. Therefore, the use of the word "boyfriend" in the song "Blue Boyfriend" does not mean a lover, just a platonic male friend.

Sempai and Koohai: These terms of reference refer to relative status between individuals in situations such as school, clubs, or corporations, with "sempai" meaning the senior partner in the relationship, and "koohai" the junior partner. In "An Unexpected Situa-tion," Akane tries to fool Chie & Michi by telling them that Hikaru is Kyoosuke's "koohai" (junior, in school in this case, which is, strictly speaking, true), rather than his girlfriend. Although we usually translate these terms of reference into the appropriate name, in this case we used "junior" to retain the meaning.

Master is a common nickname for the owner or manager of snack-bars like "ABCB."

Notes about Names:

The Japanese, like most Asians, put their family name first; all of the credits in these liner notes and the videos follow this con-vention. They also often refer to people by their family names; this is considered to be more polite. Use of a given name implies a certain level of familiarity and intimacy. In addition, the Japanese often use "terms of reference" such as "big-brother," "little-sister," "Aunt," and so on, both alone, as a suffix, and even in a friendly way to refer to people they are not related to, but who, if they were, would fit into that category.

For example, children will often call young women "Onee-san," which means "Big Sister." These same young women dread the day the children start calling her "Oba-san," or "Auntie."

On top of all this, suffixes are tacked on to names to add inflections of politeness, and to specify the position the person holds. Thus, if Mr. Suzuki were a company president, he would often be referred to as "Sukuzi Shachoo," "Mr. Company President Suzuki."

How to appropriately deal with all of these terms in a natural manner is the recurring nightmare of Japanese translators. We also had to deal with the problem that many of the characters call each other by their last names. English speakers would not do this, but if we changed the subtitle to read "what the person would say if they were speaking in English," you would read one name and hear another. Since some people find this dissonant, we have decided to subtitle what they say, except that we translate terms of reference to the appropriate name were it would be awkward to use them in English.

Kyosuke, shy ditherer that he is, usually calls Madoka "Ayukawa," her family name. Madoka also refers to Kyosuke by his family name, "Kasuga," but adds a "-kun" suffix to make it more intimate.

Since many of these terms of reference and suffix combinations are either rarely used or nonexistant in English, it is inevitable that some of the flavor of the original Japanese dialogue is lost when it is translated into English. The following brief guide to the most common terms should help you notice some of the nuances and increase your appreciation of the films.

Suffixes: suffixes are added to names to denote different levels of politeness or intimacy between the speaker and the person being mentioned. There are 4 basic suffixes.

-san: the basic neutral polite suffix, equivalent to "Mr.," "Mrs.," "Miss" or "Ms." in English.

-sama: denotes someone in a higher social position than the speaker, or whom the speaker holds in great esteem.

-kun: is the standard suffix added to the names of boys and young men. It is also used by older men in reference to younger men, especially subordinates in a business situation. "kun" is also more intimate than "san."

-chan: is the equivalent of "kun" for babies and girls, but it is also used when an intimate friendship or other relationship exists between the speaker and the person being referred to. While "chan" is rarely applied to adult men, in situations where two men have had a long and close relationship, they will often be "chan" to each other. "chan" also pops up in the mass media a lot, because of its intimations of intimacy; perhaps the strangest example of this is that in Japan, Arnold Schwarzenegger is often called "Shuuwaa-chan."

In addition to the top 4, there are many suffixes that denote job relationships, such as the above-mentioned "Shachoo." Of these, the most commonly heard is "-sensei," or "teacher," which is applied not only to teachers, but also to doctors, masters of particular art-forms and business mentors. Recently, due to all the people sucking up to other people by calling them "sensei," real sensei's have been complaining about "sensei-inflation" reducing the prestige of the term.

Terms of Reference: The most common terms of reference are:

otoo-san: someone's father.
chichi: my father (very polite).
okaa-san: someone's mother.
haha: my mother (very polite).
onii-san: older brother.
onee-san: older sister.
otooto: my younger brother.
otooto-san: someone else's younger brother.
imooto: younger sister.
imooto-san : someone else's younger sister.
oji-san: uncle.
oba-san: aunt.
ojii-san: grandfather.
obaa-san: grandmother.
anata: "you."
omae: lit. "in front of me." Rough way of saying "you."
kimi: a very sweet way of saying "you."
sempai: "one who is above another in status in the context we are talking about."
kohai: "one who is below another is status in the context we are talking about."

In the videos, the most common usages of terms of reference are Hikaru calling Kyosuke "Sempai," and Kurumi and Manami calling Kyosuke "onii-san" or "onii-chan."

Zen and the Art of Subtitle Placement

When we were subtitling the Motion Picture, we had to decide where to place the subtitles. When subtitling a letterboxed film, the option exists to move the film up towards the top of the screen and place the subtitles in the enlarged lower black band.

Although the aspect ratio of this film is only 1.66:1, we could have moved the image up vertically enough to make room for one line of subtitles in a slightly enlarged lower black band. We decided not to do this for two reasons: first, our subtitles are often two lines (two short lines are easier to read than 1 long line because they can fit into your foveal vision and be read with little or no side to side scanning by your eyes), so they would intrude on the film in any case; and second, if your TV set is underscanning and not showing the entire image, then if the film were moved up, you might lose some of the image off the top of your screen.

And take on me! Dance with me again! Soshite dare mo ga shiranai watashi o dakishimete. Tokimeki wa kimagure dakara. Oh! Choose me! And take on me! Dance with me again! Mazu watashi o erande koi o hajimete. Oh! Choose me! And take on me! Dance with me again! Soshite dare mo ga shiranai watashi o dakishimete. Tokimeki wa kimagure dakara. Garcons no T-shirt ni kigaetara yumemirusoo futsuu no seventeen. Yomikake no SF ni te o nobasu aitsu ga mata hero ni kawaru. Madobe ni motareru tsukiakari yuujoo to aijoo to ga majiriau.

Soshite dare mo ga shiranai watashi o uketomete. Mabushii natsu ga kuru mae ni.

All the days go by at high speed. So how are you? Have you found yourself a love by now? We dance, we kiss, we go our separate ways. So why... why does my heart tremble so tonight? Even if we hide our agitated feelings, we cannot keep ourselves apart. That's high-school love. Oh! Choose me! And take on me! Dance with me again! Choose me, and let's fall in love. Oh! Choose me! And take on me! Dance with me again! And hold tight to the me that no one knows, because lovers' hearts are whimsical indeed. Oh! Choose me! And take on me! Dance with me again! Choose me, and let's fall in love. Oh! Choose me! And take on me! Dance with me again! And hold tight to the me that no one knows, because lovers' hearts are whimsical indeed. When I change into a Garons T-shirt, I start dreaming because I'm a typical 17-year-old. When I reach for an SF novel I'm reading, once again, he becomes its hero. When the moonlight rests on the windowpane, friendship and love get all confused. That's high-school love. Oh! Choose me! And take on me! Dance with me again! Talk to her first-- that's the rule. Oh! Choose me! And take on me! Dance with me again! And catch the me that no one knows, Before a shining summer comes.

I'm not as carefree as you always say. Even I, at times, become all emotional, you see... It's her, isn't it? You're concerned about her, I can see... Even though I knew, I said nothing because I prefer harmony. Look, there's the footbridge where we once stood. The sunrise brings back memories, and this feeling of love... Come on, let's dance once more. Even though you give me sweet kisses, my heart is sometimes blue. Kisses alone aren't enough to put me at ease. Even though you give me sweet kisses, my love is sometimes blue. After we kiss, I make myself seem happy, but I'm really sometimes blue. Even though you give me sweet kisses, my heart is sometimes blue. Kisses alone aren't enough to put me at ease. Even though you give me sweet kisses, my love is sometimes blue. After we kiss, I make myself seem happy, but I'm really sometimes blue. You are always so indecisive. But that's OK by me, I see the bright side of things, and I'm used to it by now. What about her? Which of us do you prefer? You're just playing the fool; Seems like you want to keep it a secret. Look, that town full of buildings is coming to life. Yes, everybody's lost. We all wait for the chance, the chance of life. Good friend though you be, my heart is sometimes blue. Being just friends really isn't enough. Good friend though you be, my heart is sometimes blue. If we're just friends, why does my heart ache so...? Sometimes blue.

Usually, I spend precious nights sitting beside you drive along. Your cancellation call smelled of a lie. I hung up, pretending not to notice. My manicure, now dried, is going to waste; Its color will just decorate the night. A-HA-HA... I'm the actress in the mirror. Though I should say what I really feel, hesitation whispers in my ear. 'Cause I love you... I'm the actress in the mirror. The more I put on an act, the further away I get from my true self. You've broken my heart. A-HA-HA... I'm the actress in the mirror. Though I should say what I really feel, hesitation whispers in my ear. 'Cause I love you... I'm the actress in the mirror. The more I put on an act, the further away I get from my true self. You've broken my heart. In a bedroom filled only with lamplight, at whom am I looking? What we've lost in getting comfortable is our illusions of one another. You probably only want me to be cool and aloof. A-HA-HA... I'm the actress in the mirror. I wish I could bring myself to cry, but I change what I say to fit my tough act. 'Cause I love you... I'm the actress in the mirror. I've realized my tragic mistake, yet I cannot return. You've broken my heart. A-HA-HA... I'm the actress in the mirror.

Natsu no Mirage (Summer Mirage)

Asobigokoro ni jumon furikakete muchuu ni sasetai anata no kokoro o. Koi wa deja vu mishiranu omoide. Kasanaru kuchibiru kanjiteru wa. Love me... tenderly... Kiniro no natsu no mirage.

I want to cast a spell over your playful spirit that will make you crazy about me. Romance is deja vu; an unfamiliar memory. I feel our lips pressing together. Love me... tenderly... Golden summer mirage. Someday... someday... Please let my body feel your lips, on that morning when we've become lovers. Someday... someday... I'll wait for that forever. Love me... tenderly... Golden summer mirage. Someday... someday... Please let my body feel your lips, on that morning when we've become lovers. Someday... someday... I'll wait for that forever. A blimp floating in between the buildings gives me a premonition that seems a lot like vertigo. If I give up to the wind, with fingers outstretched, a letter with nothing written on it, maybe we'll be able to see each other. Love me... eternally... White doves dancing in the wind Tell me... tell me... When do you think love will come-- when will I hold him? Tell me... tell me... I will wait forever. I want you to show me the mysterious future in the Persian Blue of your eyes.

One more chance, now; whisper something in my ear. Why do your yesterdays fade and lose their twinkle? Deep eyes the color of the ocean turn toward the window and don't look back. Oh, your yesterdays, you can't return to those days again. #1: In your apartment I wrote a crimson love letter with lipstick on the bathroom mirror: "Even now, I still love you." Yes, once more, another yesterday. Your yesterdays are still in the midst of a vivid mood, and... We were cheek-to-cheek on a faraway beach while I heard the same heartbeat in both of us. Oh, your yesterdays overflow the hourglass of your heart. Each time I hold my pencil my diary gets wet with tears. The livelier the season gets, the further away yesterday gets. Still, my heart can't go anywhere. Yes, once more, another yesterday. REPEAT REFRAIN #1 Yes, once more, another yesterday.

My lonely heart hates to lose, but I took off on the night that I gently packed it away.

When a star drifts across the night sky... when the moon shines on you... then the noise of the city will go away, and you just call me... #1: Where are you? I can't even catch the look in your eyes in this windy city. You could go North, West, South, or East tomorrow, you're so whimsical. You'll always be riding the wind, unable to tell where you're going... "I'm weak..." So before I fall in love with you, let me put up my front. I put on red lipstick and, as if I'm a little grown-up, sing in the Lonely Hearts Club Band. Who is it that's always appearing in your eyes? It bothers me a little, but now I believe in my road. You're still riding the wind. I'm unable to catch even your gentleness. You could go North, West, South, or East tomorrow, you're so whimsical. You'll always be riding the wind, unable to tell where you're going... "You understand, I'm sure..." Hold me tight, just as though we were falling in love. You just call me...

I don't belong to you alone. You're looking for pure love? Don't make me laugh! If you want me to hold you tight, it takes love on the borderline! This world is made up of men and women, after all. If you keep me for yourself, everything will be gloomy around us. If you want to live a rosy life, it takes love on the borderline! I don't belong to you alone. You're looking for pure love? Don't make me laugh! If you want me to hold you tight, it takes love on the borderline! This world is made up of men and women, after all. If you keep me for yourself, everything will be gloomy around us. If you want to live a rosy life, it takes love on the borderline! Right to the end, love on the borderline! When you suddenly come flying into my room in the middle of the night, it's none of your business who I've got in here with me! You suddenly start crying in my room in the middle of the night. Gimme a break! It's become a fight scene, and the one who takes it seriously loses. Get out right now! Get out of here! Fade out! You and everybody else! The sweet life is a movie, a made-up satisfaction, and playing house is The End. Don't take me to task; we're all free. If you put yourself in a frame, you'll be a caged bird. If you want to do the really cool thing, it takes love on the borderline! Your thinking that "you're the only one in my life, 'til death do us part" is as inflexible as my old man. If you want to change the way you're living, it takes love on the borderline! Don't take me to task; we're all free. If you put yourself in a frame, you'll be a caged bird. If you want to do the really cool thing, it takes love on the borderline! Your thinking that "you're the only one in my life, 'til death do us part" is as inflexible as my old man. If you want to change the way you're living, it takes love on the borderline! Right to the end, love on the borderline! Your wishy-washy attitude is wearing me out. In my room in the middle of the night, you better make up your mind soon. Don't start playing like the thought of making love shocks you! We're just making love; enough with the game-playing! Sweet talk is a movie, where none of the colors are real, and playing house is The End.

Ano Sora o Dakishimete (Hold on to That Sky)

Koi ni ochita toki koi o nakushita toki namida miageteita yureru blanco no sora. Tsuyoku kogidaseba ano sora ni todoite aoku kagayaku to hateshinaku shinjita. Hold Me Again Toki wa watashi o matanai. Yobitomete mo sugiteyuku kumo no yoo ni itsu no hi mo. Hold Me Again Sorezore ni nagasarete mo watashi wa moo wasurenai ano hi no sora kono mune ni daite. Sukoshi kyuukutsuna blanco de yurashita. Suki na ano sora wa hidoku chiisakatta. Hold Me Again Toki ni oikosareteyuku sumikitta kokoro made mo ubainagara itsu no hi mo. Hold Me Again Donna ni kageridashite mo ano hi no mabushii sora o wasure wa shinai kono mune ni daite. Ano sora ni Hold Me Again.

When I fell in love when I lost love, I looked up at the sky, swinging in my swing, with tears in my eyes. I believed unendingly that if I swung hard enough, I would reach that sky and shine in blue. Hold Me Again At no time does time wait for me. It passes me by like the clouds, even though I call for it to stop. Hold Me Again Though we drift apart here and there, I will never forget the sky that day-- I will hold it in my heart. I swung on a slightly cramped swing. The sky I loved was terribly small. Hold Me Again Time is always passing me by, while stealing even my peace of mind. Hold Me Again No matter how dark it gets, I will not forget the brilliant sky of that day-- I will hold it in my heart. Hold Me Again in that sky.

Tori no yoo ni (Like a Bird)

Tatoeba sora ni kumo ga michitemo tobitsuzukeru tori no yoo ni itsumademo kono kimochi wasurenai. Anata no yasashii ai no naka ni tsubasa yasumete itai kedo watashi wa yume oitsuzukeru tori. Kuchihateru made tobasete. Omoidasu hitomi watashi o mitsume naze boku dake o aisenai to semeteita sono kimochi wasurenai. Anata ni dakishimerareteireba namida mo shirazu kurasu kedo watashi wa hageshiku ikite mitai. Kanashii toki wa nakasete. Anata no yasashii ai no naka ni tsubasa yasumete itai kedo watashi wa yume oitsuzukeru tori. Kuchihateru made tobasete.

Like a bird that keeps on flying even if the sky is full of clouds, I will never forget this feeling. Though I want to rest my wings in your gentle love, I am a bird that keeps chasing a dream. Let me fly until I fall apart. I remember your eyes looking at me, tormenting me, asking why can't you only love me? It's a feeling I won't forget. If I could be held by you, I would live without knowing tears, but I want to try living intensely. When I'm sad, let me cry. Though I want to rest my wings in your gentle love, I am a bird that keeps chasing a dream. Let me fly until I fall apart.

Futashikana I Love You (An Uncertain I Love You)

Fui ni damatta mama no watashi o mitsumenaide. Ima wa nani o iwarete mo kizutsukeru sonna ki ga suru. Wakarebanashi no niawanai gogo no hizashi no terrace anata o semeru kimochi mo ice tea ni toketeyuku wa. "I love you, I love you" Yuube sasayaita bakari. "I love you, I love you" Nante futashikana kotoba. Tomodachi no uwasa ni wa kizukanai furi shiteta. Moo ichido dake anata o shinjite itakatta no. Neon light nagareru zawameki dashita machi de watashi no heart hitotsu dake omoide ni furueteru wa. "I love you, I love you" Yuube sasayaita bakari. "I love you, I love you" Nante futashikana kotoba. "I love you, I love you" Kinoo sasayaita bakari. "I love you, I love you" Nante futashikana kotoba.

Don't all of a sudden stare at me just because I've gone silent. No matter what you say to me now I have a feeling it will hurt. On a terrace in the afternoon light, unsuited to talk of breaking up, the feelings that torment you are melting in the ice tea too. "I love you, I love you" You whispered it just last night. "I love you, I love you" How untrustworthy those words are. I pretended not to notice the rumors my friends were telling. I wanted just once more to believe in you. On a noisy, crowded street, where neon lights drift by, my heart alone is shaking with the memory. "I love you, I love you" You whispered it just last night. "I love you, I love you" How untrustworthy those words are. "I love you, I love you" You whispered it just yesterday. "I love you, I love you" How untrustworthy those words are.
