So in the end it was indeed plural as it was announced the band had two new guitarists join, Takato and Luta. There has also been an update to the OHP so everyone has new pictures, and Roa has finally gone back to having black hair again.

You can check out more information about the new members at the vk database (Japanese only).

Takato

Luta

One thing to note is that Takato and Asa have been band mates before for the group 恋 (Ren).

First off I feel really terrible about neglecting this community for so long. I will try to post more this year.

I think the most important news to update with is that the two guitarists of the group, Haruki and Kei, have left. This leaves Roa and bassist, Asa, to make up the group for now. Roa still seems positive about continuing on as Virgil though.

Note: Just a reminder, I'm not fluent enough win Japanese to translate the lyrics so I can only offer the original version of the lyrics, the hiragana only version and a romanji version of them.

If you can translate the lyrics feel free to use what I have to do so, just give credit where credit is due. Also please don't copy and paste to repost these lyrics elsewhere without asking and giving credit first. I typically won't turn a request down but as I'm hardly fluent in the language it does take me some time to do this, especially when the print is hard to read because of the colors of the booklet.

Note: Since this is the first of what I plan to make a weekly thing I'm going to just have this note here.

I've been working on transcribing the lyrics of Virgil's songs off and on for a while now since I own all their CD releases so I have the lyric booklets for them all. I'm not fluent enough win Japanese to translate the lyrics so I can only offer the original version of the lyrics, the hiragana only version and a romanji version of them.

Also I am making these posts once a week because I don't want to have this community look like it's dead. As well as the fact that trying to keep a schedule like this should help motivate me into finishing transcribing the rest.

With that all out of the way here's the first lyric transcription I have to share.
