Hi kanae! I think that means:
"You must progress now; no matter when and where you progress, I think you will always want to work hard and never forget this feeling."

Hi kanae! Here's my best shot at these sentences (I've also romanized them in case anybody was wondering how they're pronounced):

1. "Yappari kirei da ne" itte n zya nai no~? (the quote is in the left rectangular box)
Didn't you say "as I thought, it's beautiful, isn't it?"

2. Mitsume atta futari ga e ni natta.
The two people who gazed intently at each other became a painting.

3. Boku o taisetsu ni shite kudasai!!
Please treat me as somebody precious!!

Hope this helps! Big Grin

Thanks kiwisannnn Applaud
    That "kirei" had me all messed up. Whenever I see katakana I just assume it's an english word, drives me crazy! Bonk

      No problem! I know exactly what you mean -- before I started living in Japan, I always assumed katakana = foreign words. Actually, it still takes me a longgggg time to read katakana... kind of pathetic Grumble

        Think of katakana as either a foreign word, or our version of bolding or italics for emphasis. Big Grin

          ���肪�Ƃ��@��y! The other thing that drives me crazy is sometimes they'll write �{����, and then in the very next line, they'll write it as �ق�Ƃ���. There doesn't seem to be any rule or system setup, they just write whichever way they feel like. Crazy

        Yeah, you'll see that. They sometimes do it to give it a more Japanese feel, or to soften the emphasis. As you can tell, kanji are quite square and pointy, whereas hiragana are softer and more rounded. The less formal nature of using katakana can also be used to make the reader feel "closer" to the write, more like a friend. Wink

          Is this a song title or lyrics? I'm just gonna translate the characters and maybe that'll help.
          �� = Arashi (you know who they are)
          ���]�� = Jitensha - bicycle
          ���d = Hatsuden - telegraph
          �� = de, short for desu = is
          ���� = kore - this
          �L�V�C = kisshi - got no idea what that means, maybe "kiss"?
          �ƔR���s���� = to moe tsukiru - and the flame is burned out.

          ������, usually means "What's up?" "What's going on?" something like that.

        I'd say more like, "What do you want?!"
        It's not a 'casual' (what's up) phrase, but is rather used in a more hostile context.
