影時雨
手足を縫う

それでもと
光ねだるのは悪か

Romaji

ei shi-gure
te-ashi wo nuu

soredemo-to
hikari nedaru no wa waru ka

English Translation

The shadowy rainshower
Binds our limbs together

But even still,
Is it evil to ask for a small glimpse of light?

Character Information

shio

Asaki: "This shall be a story about Koumori-Otoko and Koumori-Onna!"
So I came up with a story about a man who sends a woman to hell by coaxing her with sweet words.
But I couldn't understand the lyrics of Asaki's song, so I had to think of the character's story in the dark, and I was always on edge to make sure I didn't miss anything....
(I'd like to think that this is fine, since the character was seen by him in person...)
The voice in this song is even more handsome and badass than usual, which makes me nervous. Especially the preview part. It's so cool!

The summer attire of a badass gentleman, who might appear in a novel, is a white linen suit made by a tailor. Panama hats were called "chapeau" in those days.
You can see the exciting story in monochromatic cinema.

By the way, the character's name was at first written as "こうもり男", but one day it looked like "こう・もりお" (Kou-morio) and I couldn't get rid of the cloak of もりお's curse. So I changed all the names to hiragana to avoid such mistakes.
By the time I corrected it, it's already too late, isn't it? This is...
