Lady Shurelia and Jakuri's Technical Service Center

	インフェルちゃんと、ゲンゴローの！！	Infel and Gengoro's...!
	テクニカルサービス戦隊！！	Technical Service Sentries!!
	シャキーーーン！！！ …… … なの！？ねえねえ、インフェルちゃん、今のはシャキーンして欲しかったの？それとも本気？	Ba-dump tish!!! ... ... Huh!? Hey, Infel did you want me to do that "Ba-dump tish"? Was that in all seriousness?
	う、うるさいわね！そこは流す所よ！！	S-shut up! Let it slide!!

前にもこんなのあったような気がするんですが ソル・シエールの法律ってエオリア様が決めてるんですか？ そもそも法律ってあるんでしょうかね？？ あるならなんでミュールは裸でいられるんでしょうか？？？ (ワイール)

I've had this feeling from some time ago, but does Lady Eolia make up the laws in Sol Ciel? Does Sol Ciel have any laws in the first place? And if it does have them, how can Mir go around the place naked? (Waill)

法律ですか？私は法律を作ってはいませんよ？確かにエレミア誓約書というものは作りました。これは法律ではなくて、世界を存続させるためにどうしても大切な約束事を記しているだけです。実際に法律を決めている人は様々ですね。プラティナはレアード、イム・フェーナはフラウトさんが今では最高権力者ですから、彼らが決めます。ネモはネモ自治会があり、ほたる横丁は天覇が決めているでしょう。ですが、ネモ付近については、実質法を司ってるのは、天覇と教会なのだと思います。 ちなみに、裸で歩いてはいけないという法律は、どこの町にも無かった気がしますよ。普通はモラルの問題上、しないと思いますが。

Did you say laws? I haven't made any laws, though it's true I was the maker of the covenant known as the "Covenant of Elemia". However, these aren't laws, but more like an important record of the rules we agreed upon for the preservation of this world. The people who actually decide the laws in our world are several: Leard in Platina and Flute in Em Pheyna are the most powerful people here, so they are the ones who make our laws. The laws in Nemo are made by the Nemo City Council, while in Firefly Alley they are made by Tenba. However, I think the areas near Nemo are actually controlled by both Tenba and the Church. By the way, I think none of the cities have a law in place that forbids going around walking naked, but it's normally frowned upon due to typical moral issues.

こんわー。なんだかこの投稿はここに送っていいのか?と思いつつ投稿しまーす。2のクローシェ様がはじめてレプレキア撃ったとき（ラキに弾かれたやつ）たしか空に向けて撃ちましたよね?んでもってその後ラキがソル・マルタへの物理的介入がどーのこーのっていってたからあれソル・マルタに撃ったってことですよね?でもってソル・マルタは詩魔法中継地点だから・・・もしラキが弾いてくれなかったらソル・マルタ轟沈!?てなって、詩魔法、ていうか２の世界ほとんど落ちるんじゃないすか!? (クライス)

Hi. I was wondering if a submission like this one would be okay, but I ended up sending it all the same. When Lady Cloche fired Replekia off for the first time (when it was repelled by Raki), wasn't it being fired at the sky? And since Raki said something like they were trying to physically intervene Sol Marta, were they actually firing it at Sol Marta? But since Sol Marta is a Song Magic relay point... if Raki hadn't repelled the attack, Sol Marta would have fallen down!? And then, the world from 2 would have sunk down because it had no Song Magic any more!? (Kreis)

	ま…まあ…　…そういう事になるわね。 でもいいじゃない、結果的には落ちなかったわけだし！	W... well... I think that is what would happen. But everything is fine, as ultimately it didn't fall down!
	そうですね。貴方の打ち上げたレプレキアがあのパワーで良かったのだと思います。もし仮に、レプレキアが今のパワーの半分の威力であった場合を想定すると、恐らくはパスタリア全域が廃墟と化していたのではないかと。 あり得ませんが、ソルマルタの砲撃より強かった場合は、間違いなくメタファルス全土が落下していたでしょうから。	That is correct. I think it's fortunate that the Replekia you fired at that moment had that precise amount of power. If hypothetically that Replekia had even half the power it has currently, most likely that would have reduced the entirety of Pastalia to ruins. And while improbable, if it had been stronger than the attack I shot from Sol Marta, the entirety of Metafalss would definitively have collapsed into the Sea of Death.
	…急に震えが止まらなくなったわ。	..For some reason, I can't stop trembling now...

アルトネリコ２の文庫を読んでいてふと思ったのですが、パージャがオリカとミシャとで全然違うようにメタファリカも、ルカ＆クローシェとネネシャ＆インフェルで違うのですか？ 文庫の最後の一行が最高でした！ (llka)

I suddenly thought this as I read the Ar tonelico 2 light novel, but since the Purger Songs were completely different for Aurica and Misha, would the Metafalica that Nenesha and Infel SAng be different from the one sung by Luca and Cloche? And that very last line in the novel was the best! (llka)

	もちろん違うわよ。当然じゃない。 私とネネシャが謳ったメタファリカの方が、より名曲だったわよ。 …ま、まあ、もちろんクローシェ達のメタファリカもそれなりに良かったけど…。	Of course it was different. Isn't it just natural? The Metafalica Nenesha and I Sang together was a very famous song. ...B-but well... The Metafalica that Cloche and Luca Sang was pretty good in itself...
	相変わらずインフェルちゃんは素直じゃないなぁ。 「良かった」って言ってあげればいいのに。でも、私達のメタファリカの方が名曲だったのは間違いないけどね！	And you aren't being honest like always, Infel. But it's okay since you said "it was pretty good in itself". But still, it's undeniable our Metafalica was a very famous Song!

ふと思ったのですが、精神世界内ではダイバー側の感覚（視覚、聴覚など）ってどうなってるんですか？本編で詳しいが無いのでよく分かりませんが、大分現実世界に近いような感じがします。 (雪代　四葉)

I just thought of this: what happens to the senses (like sight and hearing) of the Divers while they are in the Soulspace? I don't know much about it since there's next to no details about that in the games, but I think generally it'd be very similar to reality. (Yukishiro Shiyo)

まあ、殆ど同じね。ダイブマシンというのは、いわゆるヴァーチャルリアリティ・シミュレーターともいうべきマシンなのよ。レーヴァテイルの定常H波をスキャンして、それを解析しω展開（時間軸での感情展開）した後に、それを導体H波に変換してダイバー側の定常H波にぶつけるの。そうすると、かなりリアルな夢を見ている感覚になるわ。夢か…と思った貴方。夢と現実の違いは何かしらね。結局現実なんてものは、手や目などの各インターフェイスが電気信号で伝達した情報の処理に過ぎない。ならば、五感が感じ取った情報と同じだけの情報を、ダイバーの定常H波に入力すれば、リアルな世界を構築することが出来るわよね。 ダイブによって起こる最悪の事故は脳死よ。今までダイブマシンの爆発や窒息などを除いては、ダイブで肉体死が起こったことはないわ。まあ、そう考えれば、「肉体を伴わない現実」という言い方が一番的確なのは判ってもらえると思うけど。

Well, it's very similar. Dive Machines are actually machines that should be called Virtual Reality Simulators, which upon scanning the Static H-Waves of the Reyvateil and analyzing them through the ω-Deployment (the deploying of feelings throughout the Time Axis), they convert them into Dynamic H-Waves and send them to collide with the Diver's Static H-Waves. In short, they feel like an extremely realistic dream. And if you're thinking... "A dream?", I'd have to ask if there's any difference between dreams and reality. After all, reality is no more than the processing of information relayed as electrical signals from interfaces like the hands and eyes. Therefore, if information of the same level as the one provided by the five senses is collected and sent into the Static H-Waves of the Diver, it's possible to construct a realistic world. That's why the worst-case scenario for a Dive would be cerebral death. Since current Dive Machines omit the sensations that would be gotten from explosions or choking, there's never been a case in which the physical body of the Diver perishes during a Dive. Well, if we think about it from that angle, the most accurate and easiest-to-understand way of putting it would be that Diving is "a reality in which the physical body isn't taking part".

２のＥＤで創造したメタファリカですが、あの大きさはどういう条件で決まったのでしょうか？ あの時メタファルスにいたＩＰＤ全員で創り出せる限界サイズだったのか、それともインフェル・ピラが創り出せる限界サイズだったのか、どちらなのでしょう？ (咲也)

Metafalica was created in the ending of 2, but which are the conditions that decided its size? The limit for its size was due to the number of IPDs existing in Metafalss that could create it, or it's because Infel Phira has a limit on the size for it? (Sakuya)

えっとね、とっても現実的で夢がない言い方をすれば、I.P.D.の人数で決まった、という感じかな。 メタファリカを構築するのには、幾つかの要素が混ざり合っているわけなんだけど、その中でもエネルギー、すなわち導体H波、それが変換して導体D波、そして定常D波へと変化していくのだけど、その大元である導体H波のエネルギーの総和は、メタファリカの大陸規模を決定づける一番の要因となっているよ。ただ、人数というのは乱暴すぎるかもね。一人当たりの想いの強さはそのまま導体H波の強さになるから、みんながすっごく強くメタファリカに思いを寄せていたら、普通に思いを寄せているI.P.D.たちよりも大きな大陸が作れるから。と、こんな感じでだいじょうぶかな？

Umm, if I had to say it in a pragmatic and non-fantastical way, I'd say it was decided because of the number of IPDs. What creates Metafalica is the mixing of several different kinds of components, but among them the energy... or in other words, the Dynamic H-Waves which are then converted into Dynamic D-Waves, which in turn are converted into Static D-Waves... that large sum of Dynamic H-Wave energy is the most essential component in determining how large the Metafalica continent will be. But saying it's the number of people could be too rude... The strength of the feelings of each person also becomes the strength of the Dynamic H-Waves they send off, so if everyone gives off their hearts to Metafalica while holding in very strong feelings for it, it's normal that they end up creating a larger continent than IPDs that aren't giving off feelings as strong. Umm, that's how it'd be.

	せっかくのタイトルコールの回が、インフェルちゃんのダジャレ？で終わっちゃったね。 でも、本当にテクニカルサービス戦隊とか作ったら面白そうよね！	And the long-awaited turn we had to do the title call ended up with one of the "puns?" made by Infel. But it'd be pretty interesting if we could make some Technical Service Sentries!
	もちろん、そういう意味で言ったんだから！ 勝手にダジャレともわからないような、駄ダジャレと一緒にしないで！	Of course, that's why I said it with that intention! If you don't even know if it's a pun or not, don't put it in the same class as puny ones!
	あれ、そうだったんだ。私は凄く好きだったけどな、今のギャグ。	Oh, that wasn't it? But I really liked that gag you just made.
	あら、ようやくネネシャも私のギャグの素晴らしさが解ってきたのね。嬉しいわ。	Oh, so even Nenesha has finally come to understand how wonderful my gags can be. It makes me so happy.
	（…やっぱりギャグだったのね…）	(So it was a gag, just like I suspected...)

Editor's Postscript

先週のご祝儀トウコウスフィアは如何でしたか？最近何かとマンネリ気味な所もありますので、好評だったら定例化してもいいかな、と思っていましたが、皆さんの御意見としてはどんな感じでしょうか？もしよければ、定例化希望！とか、他にやって欲しいコーナーがある、など、御意見を、トウコウフォームからお送りいただければ幸いです。 それでは、また次回！ (土屋)

What did you think of the Celebration Toukousphere from last week? Since it was filled with several kinds of moods I've been wanting to try out lately, I've been thinking about making them a regular feature if they end up being popular. But what did you all think about it? If you are thinking you'd want to have them as a regular feature, and if you have any kinds of corners you'd like us to do, please make sure to send them using the Toukou Form. I'll be really glad if you do so. Well then, until next issue! (Tsuchiya)

今週のトウコウスフィアは？ How was this issue?
