On a related note I need an accurate translation of the title.

Unknown Flower, Capivating Trip

Both 未知 and 魅知 are pronouned the same, but the latter isn't an actual word. It's the characters for "captivating" and "knowledge."

What about "Unknown Flower, Mesmerizing Journey", is that any less accurate ?

"Bewitching Journey" flows better.

I'm trying to think of something that fits better with the homonym thing. Reknowned Journey?

Only three songs? Well, I hope that third song (the one that's not an arrange) is Kasen's theme or something.

I'm not so much excited for the music as I am to see Renko and Mary again.

That said, Infinite Nightmaaaare. :*

EDIT: Also, an interesting thought came to mind: Magical Astronomy came out over four years ago; Renko and Mary are almost certainly college graduates by now. I wonder if this will be reflected in the new story?

YES. ZUN still cares about Renko and Maribel!

Oh boy oh boy oh boy. Life is good.

At the end of Magical Astronomy it's implied that they gapped to the moon through its reflection. If this ends up actually happening I will cream my pants so hard I don't even.

So, the songs on this CD will be, for those that are too lazy to translate:


1: Unknown Flower ~ Journey of Bewitching Wisdom
2: Bell of Avici ~ Infinite Nightmare
3: Tomorrow is a feast ~ Yesterday was boring


I think the first one is actually a new song..

Maybe it's from later stages of TH13? I'm not sure which would be more awesome - preview remix, or completely original.
Also, i can't wait for ZUN's music collection vol. 6.3 and 6.8

Track 1 seems original, the theme is something like fascinating journey to the north east.

Price is 200 yen for 3 tracks :v

ZUN's track one (and most of the times track two) are usually songs that arent found in the game.
Also is this the whole CD, or did ZUN just give out the names of some of the songs instead of them all? Because three seems.... kinda underwhelming.

Cool! I'm especially looking forward to hearing Infinite Nightmare and the new track.  :3

I mean ... the announcement does. Presumably the music will, too, but *rambles on*

Bah, he could have picked other themes. Oh well, I hope the new song is good.

Suwako's stage theme is kind of underwhelming for me... I'm pretty excited to hear Avici and this new song though.

In a related news, the CD stock was sold out in 98 minutes and ZUN was lining people up personally on the meanwhile.

So? Is there a Renko/Mary story included? Come to think of it, with only three songs it's possible there isn't one.

The only track I don't particularly like is Tomorrow will be Special.
Then again, I didn't like the original, so. :v

The one original track is fucking amazing, though. I love it already.

Post by: Kips McKipzerson on May 09, 2011, 12:15:15 AM
okay listening to the original track now and dear LORD is it amazing. Too bad I'm going to have to wait for a while before the rest of the album gets put up, seeing as how I cant find the other two songs. still though, its amazing for such a short album

I think so too.
Also, I've noticed that Renko's book is white now and it has a "P".
