Me During Jamboree Whenever Luigi Does Anything:

assorted fave Luigi’s Mansion “check” quotes, loosely arranged by category

Autobiography and Family

Gosh, I am just so finicky when it comes to hats… (Hat racks)

Now honestly, when it comes to hats, they really must be hand washed. There’s simply no substitute. I know my brother likes to put his through the washing machine, but that just seems careless to me… (Washing machine)

Personally, I’ve always liked the bottom bunk a bit better… (Bunkbed)

My brother might be able to lift this… (Free weights)

Conscientiousness and Caution

So much dust! This will never pass the white-glove test! (Various)

Now that I look at it–it’s full of moth holes! Yecch! (Various)

Oh, what’s this?! Just how I like it… nice and clean! (Various)

Oh, I just can’t stand the sight of broken things! (Window in Lydia’s room)

I wish I had time to straighten this mess up a bit… (Desk in twins’ room)

One really shouldn’t open this kind of thing without asking… (Various wardrobes, chests, &c.)

Didn’t anyone ever tell those ghosts not to waste water? (Fountains)

How could anyone treat an animal that way? I won’t stand for it!!  (Leopard-skin rugs)

I don’t care much for pointy objects… (Sword wall decoration, dartboards [including children’s dartboard])

W-What’s this…? Eeek! Oh… It’s just a chair. (Various chairs)

Esoteric Interests and Wild Tangents

If you look closely, you can tell it’s really just a photograph! (Various ‘paintings’)

Hey, it’s flower season, isn’t it? I almost forgot!  (Flower in vase)

What a lovely crystal ball! You know, these give off such a beautiful glow when light shines on them… I wonder if my flashlight would work…  (Crystal ball)

Looks like a fun place to make shadow puppets…  (Movie projector)

Wouldn’t it be nice if I could raise carrier pigeons here?  (Birdhouse)

Aesthetics

Candlelight makes any ordinary room simply beautiful…  (Candles)

For some reason, this makes me feel profound sadness… (Braziers)

What’s this?!  Looks fancy! (Various)

Mmmmm, very elegant… (Various)

I could just gaze at one of these for hours… (Various items of furniture)

Oh, wow… I’ve always wanted one of these!  (Various, incl. toy train, ceiling fan, pool table)

Fabulous!  (Various, incl. suit of armor, mystical flaming stone pillars, potted plant)

氷に閉じ込めて - Kori ni Tojikomete lyrics translation [ENG]

I had the hardest time finding a translation for the Promare credits track so I just decided to try one myself. Please let me know of any mistakes!

Edit: I was linked another translation which I encourage people to read too! There is some ambiguity in the meaning so I think it’s super helpful to see how different people interpret it.

君は氷のように　冷たいけど Even though you’re as cold as ice 炎のような愛じゃ　解けちゃうけど Even though a love like flames would melt you 魔法に掛かるから I’ll place a spell, so まだ　愛してもいいかな Is it alright to keep loving you?

見透かされてるようで　苦しいから It’s painful to be seen through, so いつも遠い場所に　逃げちゃうのね You always run far away

魔法に掛けられて Under a spell もっと　いい子にしてるから I’ll be good, so まだ　信じても良いかな Is it alright to keep believing you?

私を凍らせて　今すぐ Freeze me right now 嘘も本当も　抱き締めてあげるから I’ll embrace both the truth and the lies, so 行かないで　消えないで Don’t go, don’t vanish あの街の　雪の中に　光など見つけないでよ Don’t find any light in the snow in that town

君がいなくなると　灰になるの If you disappear, I’ll become ash 燃え上がる想いが　焼き尽くすの These blazing feelings will burn out もう一度　夢が叶うなら If I can make my dream come true once again 幸せに還りたい I want to return to happiness 待っててもいいかな Is it alright to wait for you? 愛は生き延びるはず Love will go on

氷に閉じ込めて Bind me in ice この手が 　頬に心に　触れられるその瞬間まで Until these hands can touch your cheek and your heart 解けないわ　泣かないわ I won’t melt, I won’t cry 美しき　氷の鎧 Beautiful armor of ice 最後まで君を待ってる I’ll wait for you until the very end (x2)

Markup, my beloved

"This only happens to Luigi" is the sentence to summarise the entire Mushroom Kingdom canon
