Thanks for the graceful concession.

From subs

I fell in love when I saw his eyes
There was nothing but him on my mind
With burning passion I tried to know him more
But the more I sought him the deeper the maze
and with every moment my heart blazed hotter
So I kept diving into new and unknown frontiers
Everyone believes in love and dreams
But it's no fun without raising the stakes
Eyes on the edge, on the forbidden borderline
I'll break all limits, no matter how tough
Mind on the edge, seeking another limit to break
My conscience fades and my body doesn't listen
I'm coming

Should be "fansub" instead.

Since sometimes I can't tell whether the subs I'm watching are official or not -for instance, the video I got this from doesn't have a fansub group name anywhere I could find, though I must also admit I wasn't particularly searching for it-, I prefer to use the broader term without specifying just so some people don't think I'm purposefully trying to deceive them or something

Hint 1: spoiler[This song has healing powers]

Wait is this spoiler[Ikenai Borderline from Macross Delta? I believe it's sung on 2 occasions: episode 1 and 8. I'm guessing this is from episode 1, since episode 8 is not a week old yet. Sung by all members of Walkure (+ Freyja).] I was like: "Damn this feels familiar".

There are no official subs for this show.

The lack of official subs for this franchise is pretty infamous. Though the Japanese Blu-ray will have English subs. So you could use official ones if you import.

How the heck did I not realize what this was?! I guess I just haven't been paying attention the the English lyrics of the song!

I feel derpy for not getting it without the hint. I'm also baffled that no one else got it before me (except for Vaisaga, the all-knowing).

Next from fansubs.

Character A: I'm going to die soon. And I plan on bringing others down with me. I ordered Character X to go berserk in Hong Kong until the whole city is a sea of flames. And I ordered Character Y to get rid of the biggest cancer of all... the one that caused your downfall.

Character B: Cancer?

Character A: The woman, Character B. Haven't you heard yet? I've heard every single word of it. Her body was mangled, still wearing her cute school uniform. I heard she was pretty tough though, and she didn't beg for her life. Her last word were "I'm sorry." I wonder who were they meant for? It brings tears to my eyes!

Character B: Y-You're lying!

Character A: It's true! I wanted to show you a picture of her body so I could see the despair on your face, but I think I'm going to resist. 'Cause you know what, the damage is written all over your face, Character B!

Character B: *grits his teeth in anger*

Character A: "My woman in Tokyo! I'm already too late! Aww, poor Character C! She was such a nice girl, too!"

Character B: Character A!

Character A: That's right, I killed her. Now hate me. Go on, hate me, Character B!

*bang* *bang* *bang* *bang* *bang* *bang*

As it happens, the only song in an anime to which I paid attention to the lyrics was It's Only the Fairy Tale from My-Hime. I also pay alarmingly little attention to spell chants.

This is spoiler[Gauron] from spoiler[Full Metal Panic 2], taunting spoiler[Sousuke about his assassins' tasks just before Sousuke kills him].

I'm interested to know if Gina guessed Raftina's quote correctly...

The speaker and series were correct, but of course, the post lacked a context altogether. Frankly, I am surprised it turned out to be a stumper.

sub:
A: Which of the two ogres would you rather be friends with?
B: Which of the two?
A: The red ogre, who can only wish and be taken care of by others, or the stupid blue ogre, who basks in self-sacrifice?
A: What a foolish answer. If you want to befriend both, you must be the indecisive, adulterous type. You'll regret it one day.

^ Is there a line missing? To me it seems as if A is commenting on an answer that B never provided. Confused

A is spoiler[Ram (the pink haired maid) to B) Subaru Natsuki after he's read her the fairy tale "The Red Ogre Who Cried" to show off his reading skills. There is no missing dialog, since his answer was to silently choose both her proffered fingers. From Re: Zero - Starting Life in Another World.]

I think this is Crunchyroll subs.

Character A: Is something wrong?
Extra X: Character C went missing last night.
Character A: What? Character C is missing?
Character B: Character A!
Character A: Character B...
Character B: I have something important to ask you today...
Character A: I'm sorry but I can't help you right now. (beat) That's what Character C was wearing yesterday!
Character B: Yup. Do I look good in it?
Character A: Yes, you look very good.
Character B: That isn't the point! I kidnapped that giant peach woman!
Character A: Eh?
