Letty	くろまく～	Black curtain~
Sakuya	あなたが黒幕ね では、早速	Ahh, so you're the manipulator behind the curtain. Well then, without delay.

Sakuya	こんな所に黒幕も普通もないわ そもそも、あんたは今何が 普通じゃないのか分かってるの？	Mastermind or normal doesn't matter in such a place. Don't you understand why this situation isn't normal to begin with?
Letty	例年より、雪の結晶が大きいわ 大体、３倍位	Snow crystals are larger now than in years past. Three times larger.

Chen	おかしいと思ったら人に聞く！	In that case, you'd better ask a person directions!
Sakuya	人じゃ無いじゃない	But you're not a human.
Chen	まぁ、聞かれても答えられないけど	Well, I wouldn't have replied even if you'd asked me.
Sakuya	こんな日はね 猫は大人しく炬燵で丸くなるものよ	Nowadays, cats are supposed to docilely curl up beneath a kotatsu. (Kotatsu: a type of Japanese table with a blanket on top and a heat source underneath)
Chen	そういう迷信を信じちゃ駄目！	You shouldn't believe such superstitions!
Sakuya	（迷信だったのか…）	(I don't think it's just a superstition...)
Chen	大体、野猫はどうすればいいのよ	What, then, are stray cats to do?
Sakuya	大人しく保健所に駆逐されてみては どうかしら？ 浄土の世界は暖かそうだし	Why not get put to sleep at an animal shelter? The Buddhist Paradise for animals is warm, they say. (An animal shelter is infamously known most as a place where stray animals are humanely killed.)

Sakuya	なんか、無駄に時間を過ごしてるような 気がする．．． うちのお嬢様は大丈夫かしら？	Somehow, I feel that I'm just wasting my time here... I wonder how the mistress is doing? (Sakuya is referring to her master, Remilia.)
	Alice Margatroid ENTERS
	七色の人形使い アリス・マーガトロイド	The rainbow-coloured puppeteer Alice Margatroid
Alice	他人の心配する位なら自分の心配したら？	Do people whose job it is to worry about someone else, ever worry about themselves?
Sakuya	ああ、心配だわ。自分。	Ah, sometimes I do worry. About myself.
Alice	で、何が心配なの？自分。	So, for what reason do you worry? About yourself.
Sakuya	服の替えを３着しか持ってこなかったの。 自分	Because I'm carrying only three changes of clothes. For myself.
Alice	持ってきてたんだ	Ah, I see.
Sakuya	あと、ナイフの替えも	That, and change of knives too.
Alice	持ってきてるの？	Ah, I s—knives?
Sakuya	あなたは悩みが少なそうでいいわね	You seem to have few worries. Isn't that nice.
Alice	失礼な！ 少ないんじゃなくて、悩みなんて無いわ！	How rude! I don't have few worries, I have none!
Sakuya	って、言い切られてもなぁ。 で、そこの悩みの無いの。	Well, if you want to put it that way. So, you who have no worries.
Alice	はい？	Yes?
	BGM: 人形裁判　～ 人の形弄びし少女	BGM: Doll Judgment ~ The girl who played with people's shapes
Sakuya	この辺で春を奪った奴か、冬をばら 撒いた奴を知らないかしら？	Might you know who it was that stole spring or sprinkled winter all over this land?
Alice	大体、心当たりはあるけど	I might happen to have some general idea about that.
Sakuya	どこに居るの？	Then where is she?
Alice	そんな瑣末な事は、どうでも良かった のであった	Such trifling information rarely concerns me.
Sakuya	どうでも良くない	It is not a trifle.
	Alice Margatroid DEFEATED
Sakuya	さぁ、今回の騒動の張本人は 一体どこのどいつ？	Alright, spill it. Who is the ringleader behind this whole affair?
Alice	風下に寂れた神社があるわ そこに頭が春っぽい巫女が住んでる から、そいつに違いないわ	Downwind, there is a decadent Shinto shrine. Within it dwells a shrine maiden who dreams of spring. She is none other than the one you seek. (If you haven't noticed yet, Alice is accusing Reimu.)
Sakuya	多分、それは違うと思います	Somehow, I doubt that very much.
Alice	冗談はさておき あなたが桜を集めるたびに 春が近づいてることに気が付かない？	Well, joking aside. Haven't you noticed that as you gather cherry petals, spring follows you?
Sakuya	．．．向うは風上ね	... That's upwind.
Alice	まだ何も言っていないのに．．．	She's not even listening to me...

Merlin	質問は一つずつにして	One question at a time, please.
Sakuya	そうねぇ、じゃぁ凄いの？	Okay then, isn't it amazing?
Merlin	もの凄く普通よ どうでもいいけど、あんたは誰？	Amazing is the norm here. And not that it matters, but just who are you?
Sakuya	風上を目指していたらここに たどり着いただけ 風もここで淀んでるみたいだし	I have arrived here by struggling upwind against the currents. It seems the wind stagnates here.

Lyrica	宴の時間～	The time of the banquet~
Merlin	まぁ、プチ宴位にはなるかな？	Well, perhaps might it be enough for petit banquet?

Sakuya	無事でありたいわねぇ	Then I'll just have to survive.

Sakuya	人肉！	Human meat!
	Prismriver Sisters DEFEATED
Sakuya	で、こんなところで時間を潰してる 暇はないんだけど	I can't afford to waste time in a place like this.
Sisters	まだお花見には早いの	It's not yet time for the flower-viewing.
Sakuya	お花見も結構だけど、 春にならないとね	A flower-viewing would be nice if spring was actually here.
Sisters	春なら、お屋敷にいっぱいだわ	Were it spring, the mansion would be full.
Sakuya	この程度の結界なら、 簡単にくぐれるわね	This kind of boundary... Is simple to bypass. (It seems that Sakuya has some magical skill that Marisa doesn't have.)

Stage 5

The endless stairs up to Hakugyokurou

	白玉楼階段の幻闘	Spirit battle on the staircase of Hakugyokurou

	半分幻の庭師 魂魄　妖夢（こんぱくようむ）	The half-ghost gardener Youmu Konpaku
Youmu	みんなが騒がしいと思ったら 生きた人間だったのね	I wondered why all the ghosts here are noisy now... ...maybe because a living human has come here.
Sakuya	ようやく、原拠までたどり着いたようね 丸一日かかってしまったわ	Finally, I've gotten to the source. It took me a whole day to get here.
Youmu	こんなところまで来て、余裕あるわね ここは、白玉楼 死者たちの住まう処よ 生きた人間の常識で物を考えると 痛い目にあうわ	In coming here, you have exercised great composure. This is Hakugyokurou. The deceased live on in this place. You shall not act on living's common sense, or you will be in mess.
Sakuya	死人に口無し 大人しく春を返してもらおうかしら	The dead do not speak. Calmly return our spring to us.

Youmu	あと少しで西行妖（さいぎょうあやかし） が満開になる 普通の春じゃ絶対に満開にはならないのよ	In a short while, the Ayakashi Saigyou will reach full bloom. With a normal spring, it would never achieve a perfect bloom.
Sakuya	ダメだってば	And if I say I don't care?
Youmu	あなたの持っているなけなしの春で 西行妖もきっと満開になる	The tiny trace of spring that you brought here can bring the Ayakashi Saigyou to full bloom.
Sakuya	話聞いてる？ そんなもんの為に、私は寒い思いを してきたのよ	Are you listening to me? For that kind of selfish endeavor I carry only cold thoughts.
Youmu	ここは暖かいでしょ？	Is it not warm here?

Youmu	死人に口無しだわ その春を全て戴くまでよ	Indeed, dead men have no mouths. I will consume the warmth of your spring.
Sakuya	この私のナイフは、幽霊も斬れるのか？	I wonder, can my knives cut even ghosts?
	BGM: 広有射怪鳥事　～ Till when?	BGM: Hiroari Shoots a Strange Bird ~ Till when? ("Hiroari Shoots a Strange Bird" is the title of a section within chapter 12 of the "Taikeiki" (太平記, ISBN 0804835381), a Japanese war epic written in the 14th century.)
Youmu	妖怪が鍛えたこの楼観剣に 斬れぬものなど、少ししか無い！	The things that cannot be cut by this sword, forged by youkai... Are next to none!
	Youmu Konpaku DEFEATED
Sakuya	良かった幽霊も斬れるみたいね 銀だから？	Cool. It looks like I can cut even ghosts with these knives. Maybe because they're silver?
Youmu	私は半分は幽霊ではないわ でも、西行寺お嬢様は完全な霊体 そんな陳腐な武器で勝負に なるのかしら？	I am half non-ghost, you know. But the mistress of the Saigyou Shrine is fully a ghost. Do you expect to be a challenge using those trinkets for weapons?

Yuyuko	あの世はいつも 賑やかで華やかな処だわ	The Netherworld is always lively and gorgeous.
Sakuya	華やかなのは、幻想郷の春を奪った からじゃなくて？	Isn't it gorgeous because you snatched spring away from Gensokyo?
Yuyuko	あら、春は嫌い？	Oh my, do you hate the spring?
Sakuya	好きだから怒ってる 何故、幻想郷の春度を奪った？	No, I'm mad because I like it. Why have you taken Gensokyo's spring?

Sakuya	・・・さっきの死人はあんたと私を 闘わせたがってた様よ	...That dead girl from before was trying to get me to fight you.
Yuyuko	もう少しで、最後の桜、西行妖 （さいぎょうあやかし）が咲くの それさえ咲けば、全ての疑問は解けるわ	Soon, the last cherry blossom, the Ayakashi Saigyou, will bloom. Only then will all questions be answered.
Sakuya	その桜、枯れてるんじゃないの？	That cherry tree, isn't it withering?
Yuyuko	もう少しで咲きそうなの きっと、妖夢はあなたの持つなけなしの春 で、開花すると思ったのね	It's on the verge of blooming. Youmu must have thought that the small trace of spring you carry would be enough.
Sakuya	興味は無い それより、ここに来るのに丸一日以上 かかってしまったのが気になる	I don't care. Look, it took me over a day to get here. It'll take the same time to get back. Let's end this already.
Yuyuko	あら、すぐに帰してあげるわよ あなたはまだお呼びではないし	Well then, I will send you home straight away. You being an uninvited guest and all.
Sakuya	さっきの訂正、ここに来るのじゃなくて 幻想郷を春にするの、だわ	I didn't come here just to be sent back. Return Gensokyo's spring.
Yuyuko	あら、地上はまだ桜が咲かないのかしら？	Oh, could it be that the cherry blossoms in your world have yet to bloom?
Sakuya	桜どころか、福寿草も咲かないわ	No cherry blossoms; not even the pheasant's eyes bloom. (Pheasant's Eye: a spring herb, stimulates heart muscles when used medicinally)
Yuyuko	それじゃぁ、心臓病の時困るわね	In that case, you'd be troubled if you were to develop heart disease.
Sakuya	困らない そもそも、家のお嬢様が心臓弱い 訳ないし	I don't worry about that. First of all, my mistress does not have a weak heart.
Yuyuko	それは残念ね	What a pity.
Sakuya	残念？ まぁ、草の話はいいのよ そろそろ暖気が欲しいのよ 返して貰おうかしら、暖気を	A pity? Alright, enough talk of herbs. I want to feel girlish and carefree again. I will have my carefree spring days returned now.

Sakuya	そもそも亡骸は美しくないし	First of all, corpses aren't beautiful—
Yuyuko	だからね	That is why—
Sakuya Yuyuko	必ず地上で花見を行うわ、姫の亡骸！ 必ず封印を解いてみせる、悪魔の犬！	I will see cherry blossoms in my world, rotting princess! I will loosen the seal on the tree, dog of the devil!
