Cry No More

by: Mika Nakashima

Blood+ 2^nd Ending Song

Hontou no kizu wa itama nai yo

Koe to kotoba nakushite

Tada namida ga afurete kuru dake

Risou ni michita ano goro no

Kokoro wa ima wa are hate

Mujun bakari no jibun wo ikiteru

I don’t wanna cry no more

I don’t wanna cry cry cry

Ato dono cry na do

Ato dono kurai cry cry

Tsuyogari dake wo buki ni shite

Tatakatte kita yowamushi

Kimi wa zenbu shittete kureta no

I don’t wanna cry no more

I don’t wanna cry cry cry

Nakitai kurai na no

Kowareru kurai cry cry

oh kono sabishisa ni

itsuka owari wa aru no?

I don’t wanna cry no more

I don’t wanna cry cry cry

Ato dono cry na do

Ato dono kurai cry cry

Ato dono kurai baby

Nakitai cry cry cry

I don’t wanna cry no more

I don’t wanna cry

I don’t wanna cry

English Translation:

True wounds, don’t really hurt

I just simply lose my voice and words

and the tears starts to flow

Once I was full of ideals

but now my heart has become desolate

It’s a contradiction, but I need to live my own way

I don’t wanna cry no more

I don’t wanna cry cry cry

How much longer will it last?

How much longer must I cry cry?

My only weapon was bluffing

I was fighting like a coward

You were the one who understood it all

I don’t wanna cry no more

I don’t wanna cry cry cry

I almost want to cry

I’m nearly broken, so I cry cry

Oh will this loneliness

be over one day?

I don’t wanna cry no more

I don’t wanna cry cry cry

How much longer will it last?

I don’t wanna cry cry cry

How much longer will it baby

I just wanna cry cry cry

I don’t wanna cry no more

I don’t wanna cry

I don’t wanna cry

This song is the 2^nd ending song of the anime Blood+. The anime was about Saya Otonashii’s journey to fight the Chiropterans (what looks like bloodsucking creatures, like vampires, you know) with her faithful chevalier Haji and rediscovering her own identity along the way. The story is a very touchy one for me, (but not in the cheesy way) mainly because she was the only who could kill the chiropterans even though at first she find it hard to do so. And she also was struggling to find out who she really was.

The anime is produced by Production I.G. (like Prince of Tennis) and Sony’s production arm, Aniplex (like Jigoku Shoujo and La Corda D’Oro Primo Passo). The original run was on October 08, 2005 to September 23, 2006. Blood+ was distributed by Sony Pictures Television International (SPTI) and here in the Philippines it premiered its first six episodes on Animax on April 08, 2007, Sunday, 9pm but the official airing was on April 12, 2007, Thursday, 7pm-8pm (haha! got the schedule right!). Its encore runs and replays were at 10pm-11pm in the same prime telecast day, and every Sunday, at 12pm-1pm and 10pm-11pm. The animated film entitled Blood: The Last Vampire from which the anime series was based upon premiered on Animax on April 07, 2007, Saturday, at 8pm. The anime is rated PG, because of its strong violent scenes and language – and I watched the anime all by myself, hehehhe.

It has a total of 50 episodes of horror, action, drama, mystery, supernatural, and romance. Whew!
