------------------------------------------------------
1. boutou ni atari, mazu denketsu ga hoeru 1:27
[In the beginning Roars the Electric Genius]
MSC: Iwasaki Taku ARG: Iwasaki Taku
2. R.O.D no teema ~Opening Version~ 1:34

[Theme of R.O.D ~Opening Version~]
MSC: Iwasaki Taku ARG: Iwasaki Taku

3. sho o aishite kuruu mono iwaku, "kami wa tuneni warera to tomo ni" 2:20
[Those Who Love Books to Insanity Say, "Paper is Always with Us"]
MSC: Iwasaki Taku ARG: Iwasaki Taku
The words for "God" and "paper" sounds identical ('kami') in Japanese.

4. hon'ya ni te --- fukaku shizuka ni senkou seyo 1:18
[At a Bookshop --- Choose Silent, Choose Deep]
MSC: Iwasaki Taku ARG: Iwasaki Taku
This is a pun. 'senkou' can mean both "to choose" and "to go under water" (although their kanji are different). 'Fukaku Shizuka ni Senkou seyo' is the Japanese title for an American film, "Run Silent, Run Deep"

5. senritsu! senritsu! mata senritsu!! 2:23
[Horror! Horror! More Horror!!]
MSC: Iwasaki Taku ARG: Iwasaki Taku

10. nishi nite asobu otoko, nyoi nite bou o sosori tateru 4:20
[A Man Playing in the West Raises a Pole at Will]
MSC: Iwasaki Taku ARG: Iwasaki Taku
"A man playing in the West" probably means Genjou, the priest of "A Journey to the West."

11. ijin kumikyoku 9:03
[Suite for Grands Hommes]
Part I Kigai naru sai, Gen'nai
[Talent Called Kigai, Gen'nai]
Hiraga Gen'nai wrote a few plays under the assumed name of Fukuchi Kigai apparently to raise money for his scientific study.
Part II sono otoko, tonchi-mono ni tsuki
[As the Man is So Witty]
I suppose this is taken from Kitano Takeshi's film, 'sono otoko, kyoubou ni tsuki.'
Part III eikou naki tensai-tachi no Adagio
[Adagio for Geniuses without Glory]
MSC: Iwasaki Taku ARG: Iwasaki Taku
