Pacific Rim Imitation Network

Lyrics

 * 1 "The gi in gisou can be written with 偽 (“fake, falsehood”), but here it is written with 擬 (“imitate, mimic”), hence the translation of 擬装 as “imitation” (The basic meaning of the sou kanji is “attire; disguise; pretend”).
 * 擬装 can obviously be translated in other ways, but since people seem to be most familiar with this song as “Pacific Rim Imitation Network” (as opposed to “Kantaiheiyou Gisoumou”), I’ve decided to keep it that way for now."
 * 2 "Perhaps a reference to “Miss N.”? She is mentioned several times in the “Story” section of the Sim City lyrics pamphlet, as well as in the credits section under “lyrics” and “additional performers”."
 * 3 "Suiren means “water lily”, but when written with these kanji (“water” + “lotus”), it can also be a girl’s name. The word seems to be written more often with these kanji (睡蓮, “sleep: drowsy; die” + “lotus”) or in katakana (スイレン)."
