I’m sorry I said all those mean things to you. I thought you lost your way, but after watching episode 2 and 3, I realized that you were just holding back your true powers in order to give us a pleasant surprise. I hope you will find it in your heart to forgive my foolish impudence. I swear that you will forever remain awesome in my book from this day on.

Love,
DM

P.S. As part of my apology, I translated your awesomerific opening theme song, “disarm dreamer” by Aki Misato. Please see the attachments. (Virus-free I promise.)

disarm dreamer
Misato Aki

yakusoku wa iranai kara…

dare moga kokoro ni idaiteru kibou wa
taisetsu na hito eno omoi
kanashimi afureru sekai wa shiranai
hashiridase ashita no tame ni

ai to yobu mono mamoritai kara
akiramenai yo
egao no kimi mune ni yadoshi

kagayaku taiyou se ni ukete tabidatsu
disarm dreamer yakusoku wa iranai ne
yatto deaeta nakama-tachi ni aizu wo
ano basho de matteru yo

kienai negai ga karada wo yusabureba
atarashiki tobira ga mieru
yuuki wo mikata ni kagi wo hazusu nara
hirogaru yo sora no aosa ga

ai ha yowasa to tsuyosa wo motte
toki ni kizutsuku
namida ga yobu shin no chikara

moeru yo jounetsu mote amasu mamonaku
I feel dreamer tomarazu ni susumu ima
na mo naki hibi yo nakama-tachi no hitomi wo
itsumade mo wasurenai

moeru yo jounetsu mote amasu mamonaku
I feel dreamer tomarazu ni susumu ima
kagayaku taiyou se ni ukete tabidatsu
disarm dreamer yakusoku wa iranai ne
yatto deaeta nakama-tachi ni aizu wo
ano basho de matteru yo

disarm dreamer
Aki Misato

I don’t need your promise…

Everyone holds in his heart a dream,
An yearning for his cherished person.
I don’t know the world overflown with sorrow.
For a better tomorrow, start dashing now!

To protect this thing called love,
I won’t give up the fight.
I keep your smile close to my heart.

I set out on a journey with the sun blazing behind me.
A disarm dreamer does not need promises.
Sending out a signal to my long-awaited comrades,
I will be waiting at the usual place.

If your body quivers from an undying wish,
A new doorway will show itself to you.
If you make courage your ally and unlock the door,
The sky’s brilliant blue will embrace you.

Love is both fragile and strong,
Sometimes it hurts,
And its true power can bring tears.

This burning passion is almost out of control.
I feel dreamer, now I can’t stop moving.
The looks of my comrades from those nameless days,
I will never forget them.

This burning passion is almost out of control.
I feel dreamer, now I can’t stop moving.
I set out on a journey with the sun blazing behind me.
A disarm dreamer does not need promises.
Sending out a signal to my long-awaited comrades,
I will be waiting at the usual place.

Original Japanese lyrics are available in the lyrics section

It’s truly the most spectacular OP ever conceived by man.
