I can’t believe Jewelpet isn’t dead.
It’s been a while but here’s a really great episode to make up for it! I’ve been out of business for a while so do lemme know if you have any feedback.
It was pointed out to me that it would be a good idea to make posts like this when needed.
Our translator for Jewelpet has been very busy lately with some important life matters so there wont be another episode until about the middle of May. Sorry for the delay of any announcements about this.

I’m running out of interesting things to write here, so I’ll go ahead and state the obvious by saying that Garnet’s dance scene was pretty much a shot for shot recreation from the one from Flashdance. See for yourself!

Throughout most this episode, mostly the A Part, the phrase “sungoi” is used. This is a major pain in the ass of a word that has both negative and positive connotations. We used the words “terrible” and “terrific” where applicable.
In the B Part, Iruka-sensei and Ruby are both singing a song called “火の用心のう” which roughly translates to “Beware of Fire Song”, it seems to be a nursery rhyme that students would sing during fire drills. They made up some lyrics of their own too, to make sure it was as fun as possible for us to transcribe, of course!

The insert song that plays during the B part, “Talk Show” by Tetsuwan Miracle Babies, is actually the theme song of a show by the name of “Neltun Club”. It was a late night talk show hosted by a comedy duo called “TUNNELS” featuring various couples, sort of like a Japanese Newlywed Game. The series is referenced several times throughout the series, so I felt it was worth explaining.

I don’t have any particular interesting TL notes for this time, but what I do have is a fancy new encode! We went ahead and cropped out the ugly black bars that were in the raw of this episode. It was incredibly easy to do, so expect us to do that for every episode from now on. Take a look!
