Unofficial English translations for song titles
Rather than leaving the song title's untranslated as with some of the other J-pop idol pages, I've added unofficial English translations and provided comments below for some of the less obvious titles:


 * 恋する季節 translates as "Love Season" or "The Season of Love" but the suggestion is that the love is just beginning, so I've used "The Season for Falling in Love".
 * お祭りJAPAN!!告白Night translates as "Festival JAPAN!! Confession Night!!" but the meaning of 告白 is in relation to a confession of love, so I've used "Festival JAPAN!! Love Confession Night".
 * 中二の夏. おじさんの夏.  translates as "8th grader's summer, Uncle's summer" as 中二 is used to describe a child who is in the second year of junior high school (and therefore in the 8th grade and usually either 13 or 14 years old) and おじさんの is not describing someone's relative but, more generally, an older man familiar to the group (in the Japanese sense of the word "uncle", and also in relation to the fact that Bucho is often referred to as oji-san or "old man" by the girls or himself and he's singing about himself in this particular song), so I've used "A 14 Year Old's Summer, An Old Man's Summer".
 * デスラビッツ軍の七ケ条 translates as "7 Articles of the DEATHRABBITS Army" (or "7 Conditions of the DEATHRABBITS Army") but in the song lyrics these articles/conditions are referenced in terms of principles that the DEATHRABBITS members must abide by because they constitute the moral character of the army, so I've used "7 Principles of the DEATHRABBITS Army".
 * 怪獣ANPONTAN translates as "Monster ANPONTAN" and I've used this translation, but I've seen references to あんぽんたん (anpontan) that mean "idiot", "fool" or "halfwit" so the translation I've used probably doesn't get the meaning across very well.

If anyone has any input/suggestions they would be very welcome. These translations are not intended as original work as the titles can obviously be translated with some level of accuracy, but native speakers are much better placed to be able to do this as a certain amount of cultural knowledge/context is needed which (as a non-native speaker not living in Japan) I don't have.
