To distract himself from things going on with Fujimiya, Hase goes to karaoke, bringing Shougo with him.
- 長谷:
- 「ほらほら翔吾も何か入れて！」
- “Come on, come on, Shougo! Put something in, too!”
- 「じゃなきゃ俺が連続で歌っちゃうぞー！」
- “Otherwise, I'll just keep singing one after another!”
- Literal: “If not, I'll end up singing continuously!”
- “Come on, come on, Shougo! Put something in, too!”
Key Points
1連続で = “continuously”
- Here 連続 means Hase would keep singing songs with no break.
- The particle で marks the manner or condition, so 連続で歌う is “sing continuously” or “sing one song after another”.
2Casual contraction: 歌っちゃう
- 歌っちゃう is a spoken contraction of 歌ってしまう.
3じゃなきゃ = “if not”
- じゃなきゃ is a casual shortening of じゃなければ.
- It connects directly to the previous line.
4Sentence ending nuance: ぞー
- The ending ぞー makes the line sound emphatic and teasing, like Hase is half-warning and half-joking.
Vocabulary
