I collect soundtracks of animes I like, some of them come with character speaches and such. Well I was listening to one from the Ai Yori Aoshi soundtrack called Aoi Nitsuki Fuyu. From the words I can translate and such it sounds like an epilogue to all the characters (this is another reason I should go to a japanese college class. But I'm poorer then a Tokyo College student without a job and his parents just cut his money off. Or at least feeling that way.) Actually I'm not sure about Nitsuki either so if someone could explain that word as well. But I'm guessing Fuyu means something like farewell. Please confirm this or tell me what it means if not.

Japanese dictionary says: winter.

And this belongs in the Language subforum. *boots it there*

Thanks, Now I think I think the answer to the title is Aoi's Winter Diary(journal?) . Cause the next OST had Aoi's spring diary. Oh well, fair guess. Gah, I'll look around the net to find a translation written out hopefully. I really am tired of waiting for them to completely release the manga in america and no-one is scanlating it now. I really want to see the ending to the manga since I've watched all the anime (which of course they dont finish and probably never will gonk )

I came so close to cracking a joke about this. That is, of course, if it was written in Katakana, but I'm guessing you're reading either hirigana, kanji, or romaji. So yep, it just means winter. Other helpful words are: 春 Haru (spring), 秋Aki (fall), 夏Natsu (summer) and しゅんかしゅうとう(shunkashuutou) four seasons. Oh and just in case the character for Fuyu is 冬. Hope this helps, even a little.

Are you sure it's not "nikki" instead of "nitsuki?" Because then Aoi's Winter Diary would make sense, but not if it was nitsuki.
