1.	You count the medals: 1, 2 and 3	You count the medals: 1, 2 and 3	You count the medals: 1, 2 and 3	You count the medals! One, two, and three!	You count the medals: 1, 2 and 3!	You got the medals 1, 2, and 3	You count the medals one, two, and three!
	Notes: We measure our development in once-in-a-lifetime milestones, counting our gains and calculating our losses.

	Life goes on, Anything goes, Coming up OOO	Life goes on. Anything goes. Coming up OOOs	Life goes on, Anything goes, Coming up OOO	Life goes on! Anything goes! Coming up OOO	Life goes on, anything goes, comin' up ooo	Life goes on! Anything goes! Coming up OOOs!	Life goes on! Anything goes! Coming up OOO!
	Notes: “Anything goes,” as in “Nothing is an absolute reality, all is permitted” (Vladimir Bartol, Alamut). The word OOO has at least eighteen distinct meanings: infinity with an additional circle or infinity times the letter O (as written in cake icing in episode one of the series; referred to in the theme song as “Skip the addition—multiply your way up”). the unstoppable progression of the idiom “anything goes” (referred to in the theme song as “Anything goes, goes on: ooo’s, ooo’s, ooo’s, ooo’s”). one thousand (the letter O’s symbolizing zeros, as the series sports the one-thousandth episode of the Kamen Rider franchise). three medallions (referring to an ancient coin-shaped technology for artificial life that acquired consciousness; the three coins are inserted into the hero’s belt to trigger a transformation). the name of a masked hero (sometimes also spelled Os, pronounced like the oes in goes). multiple kings (from the Japanese pronounciation Ozu). a joyous bouquet (an allusion to the idiom that “everything is coming up roses,” referred to in the theme song as “Coming up OOO”). the “three of pentacles” in the Tarot (symbolizing coordinating with others, finding all the needed elements, functioning as a unit, cooperating, meeting goals, knowing what to do and how to do it, and proving one’s ability, as per Learn Tarot). rarity (as in the old Celtic “Chant of Arcady” sung at harvest gatherings: “I’ll sing the three O’s. What means the three O’s? Three, three’s the rare O!” —A. S. Harvey, Ballads, Songs and Rhymes of East Anglia, 1936, page 107). a winning move (“A single line of three ‘O’s is worth more than anything because a move that produces this result is a winning move!” —Mike James, Artificial Intelligence in Basic, page 30). omnipotence, omniscience, and optimization (“The three O’s, omnipotence, omniscience, and optimization ... continue to appear in modern times in the way we conceive of ourselves through the social sciences. Mortal beings figuring out how to act in the world are routinely modeled as if they have unlimited computational power, possess complete information about their situation, and compute the optimal plan of action to take.” —Peter M. Todd & Gerd Gigerenzer, Ecological Rationality: Intelligence in the World, pp. 496-7). outflanked, outfoxed, overwhelmed (“The ‘Three O’s’: a defence must be either Outflanked, Outfoxed, or Overwhelmed.” —Current Research on Peace and Violence, 1987, page 129). continual practice (“Whenever anyone asks why our name is spelled with three O’s, we remind them that to be good at picking there is no other path than to practice Over and Over and Over again.” —Deviant Ollam, Practical Lock Picking, 2012, page xi). the possibility of different combinations (“The three O’s tempt the reader to explore the possibilities of different combinations.” —Guillaume Apollinaire & Anne Hyde Greet, Calligrammes, 1908, page 407). decimalization (“For every three O’s added to the given number, we shall have one place of decimals. And, in general, since the nth power of ten has no O’s we shall always have, in extracting the nth root, one place of decimals for every n O’s added to the given number.” —Silas Totten, A New Introduction to the Science of Algebra, 1836, page 225). a belt, as in the three stars of the constellation Orion. (“The three o’s [are part of a] densely woven mesh of triplets [that] constellates this moving poetic object.” —Michael Golston, Poetic Machinations, 2015). rising to a challenge (“As soon as the ball is served, the three O’s come out to challenge.” —Jacob Daniel, The Complete Guide to Coaching Soccer Systems and Tactics, 2004). seizing the day; embracing the world (“The three o’s are a circular microcosm of the day, or, of the world.” —Robert Greer Cohn, The Poetry of Rimbaud, page 60).

	要らない持たない夢も見ない (iranai motanai yume mo minai)	Don’t base your life on unworthy dreams	Don’t bother with unwanted or short-lived dreams	Don’t bother with dreams that are unnecessary or fleeting	Never bother with unwanted and short-lived dreams	You need to cast away all these wasteful dreams	You don’t need ’em, have ’em, or even dream of ’em
	Notes: “The good life is at least partly based on dreams that are worthy of us, dreams that elevate and challenge and inspire our best” (Anonymous). “If you need to let go of a dream ... take the time to explore the driving force behind its dissolution and ask yourself if the dream was truly yours or if it was an expectation. Better things wait for us on the horizon when we finally let go” (Erica Rachel, “Letting Go When It’s Time to Dream a New Dream”).

	フリーな状態... それもいいけど (FUREE na joutai... sore me ii kedo)	Even as you cultivate an open mind	A free state... That’s alright, I guess	It’s fine to just be completely free	Living life to the fullest is the best thing to do	The only thing that matters is living free	You’re a free man, and that's alright, but...
	Notes: Nurture a curious attitude, be reflective, and entertain possibilities. “Open-mindedness is the willingness to search actively for evidence against one’s favored beliefs, plans, or goals, and to weigh such evidence fairly when it is available” (University of Pennsylvania’s Positive Psychology Center).
5.	Original	Oddfellow	Yoroshiku	TV-N	Tyndle	Lallemand	OZC
	こっから始まる (kokkara hajimaru) The show we’re waiting for!	Thus begins the unfolding adventure	Starting now: the show we’re waiting for	It starts now! The show we’re waiting for	What you’ve anticipated! It’s already started!	It’s already started, the show we’re waiting for.	The show we’re waiting for is about to start!
	Notes: Paradoxically, a beginning is never a beginning, and this contradiction pays homage to the 1000 episodes of Kamen Rider that preceded OOO. “The beginning is never a beginning in any realm of being. There may be a beginning which means a new form for the thing in existence, but the old is there. Walking through the oak forests I pick up an acorn, and I look at it. A new beginning? Oh yes, but that beginning depends upon the things preceding it! It is a question that one can state almost in humourous terms: which is first, the oak tree or the acorn? That oak tree came out of the acorn. It did, but the acorn came from the oak tree. ... You are going out to a new pathway, to fresh conditions, to other circumstances, to the realization of new possibilities, to new activities, but you are carrying out with you all the past. A beginning is not a beginning” (G. Campbell Morgan, “The Commencement of Wisdom,” Record of Christian Work, Vol. 39, page 715).

	Count the medals: 1, 2 and 3	Count the medals: 1, 2 and 3	Count the medals: 1, 2 and 3	Count the Medals! One, two, and three!	Count the medals: 1, 2 and 3	You got the medals one two and three	Count the medals one, two, and three!
	Notes: Commemorate your distinctions; they're cumulative.

	運命は君放っとかない (unmei wa kimi hottokanai)	But destiny enters the equation	Fate will not let go of you	But you can’t ignore fate	Matters not how rough life gets, you must move on	Though you’ve been kicked around, probably all your life	Destiny isn’t letting you off that easily
	Notes: “The question of free will is not simply a black-and-white or yes-no kind of question, but one that embraces the full complexity of what it means to be human” (Marcelo Gleiser, “The Choice is Yours: The Fate of Free Will”).
8.	Original	Oddfellow	Yoroshiku	TV-N	Tyndle	Lallemand	OZC
	結局は進むしかない (kekkyoku wa susumu shika nai)	Above all, progress is inevitable	In the end, you just have to go on	In the end, all you can do is keep moving forward	The mighty hand of fate will never let go of you	Don’t stop the perseverance that you feel inside	So the fact is, you’ll have to keep pushing on
	Notes: “To the Japanese sensibility, a straight line is inherently beautiful. It need not be rigidly straight, but its emphasis should be forward and positive, signifying organic growth, clarity, and honesty” (Motohisa Yamakage, The Essence of Shinto: Japan’s Spiritual Heart, p. 45).
9.	Original	Oddfellow	Yoroshiku	TV-N	Tyndle	Lallemand	OZC
	未知なる展開 (michi naru tenkai) Give me energy	Into the great unknown, with gusto	An unknown development, give me energy	Mysterious turn of events! Give me energy!	Strange, ancient artifacts give me energy!	We are the revolution, give me energy,	Stuff I’d never seen before, give me energy
	Notes: “What is the state of mind that is capable of looking at something of which it knows absolutely nothing? ... Can it look at it without any sense of fear? The moment you have fear you have choice, there is will, there is resistance, and that is a wastage of energy. The ending of energy as the ‘me’ is the capacity to look at death. To face something of which I know absolutely nothing, demands great energy, doesn’t it? I can only do that when there is no will, no resistance, no choice, no wastage of energy. To face something unknown, there must be the highest form of energy, and when there is that total energy, is there a fear of death? Or is there a fear of continuity? It is only when I have lived a life of resistance, will and choice that there is fear of not being, or of not living. When the mind is faced with the unknown, and all these things have gone, there is tremendous energy. And when there is that supreme energy, which is intelligence, is there death? Find out” (J. Krishnamurti, The Awakening of Intelligence, page 316).

	Count the medals: 1, 2 and 3	Count the medals: 1, 2 and 3	Count the medals: 1, 2 and 3	Count the medals! One, two, and three!	Count the medals: 1, 2 and 3	count the medals 1, 2, and 3	Count the medals one, two, and three!
	Notes: “The process of counting is controlled by the individual, who chooses not only the order but also the pace at which the process is carried out” (T. Crump, Japanese Numbers Game, 2012, page 99).
11.	Original	Oddfellow	Yoroshiku	TV-N	Tyndle	Lallemand	OZC
	大丈夫。明日はいつだって白紙 (daijoubu. ashita wa itsudatte BLANK)	All is well. The future is unwritten	It’s ok—tomorrow’s always blank	It’s okay! Tomorrow’s always a blank slate	It’s alright! The events of tomorrow will always be blank	It’s okay, don't you know that your past will always be blank	So don’t worry, there’s always going to be a fresh start tomorrow
	Notes: “The future is unwritten ... It is ever-evolving. Like the weather, it is subject to change at any given moment. However, some patterns can be predicted more easily than others. Though it is unwritten, it is not without intelligence and direction” (Adam Ross Rapoport, Memory of a Vagabond, page 406).
12.	Original	Oddfellow	Yoroshiku	TV-N	Tyndle	Lallemand	OZC
	自分の価値は自分で決めるものさ (jibun no kachi wa jibun de kimeru mono sa)	You decide what is important	Your value is something you decide yourself	You’re the one who decides what your worth is	You just have to break through all the hardships	If you put your mind to it I know that you can be victorious	You’re the only one who can decide your worth!
	Notes: “It is a matter of deciding what is important to us, and doing what is necessary. No one can tell you what is most important to you. Only you can know. It is entirely in your hands, always your choice. But you have an inner voice, you know. Something inside calls you to experience more, always more. The seed wants to grow into a strong tree with beautiful, fragrant flowers blooming out all over. It must. We are all called by that evolutionary current inside us. Whatever else may be going on in our lives, the current will be there. It is not just for us, it is for everyone, and we do everyone a great service by deciding to cultivate it, first by favoring the rise of the desire, and then with practices that naturally bring out the peace and bliss residing within us” (Yogani, Advanced Yoga Practices, page 15).

	Notes: Twelve zeroes make one million million. This number is a symbolic call to infinite expansion.

	Anything Goes! その心が熱くなるもの (sono kokoro ga atsuku naru mono)	All is permitted, so tend the heart fire	Anything goes! That heart is what gets heated	Anything goes! Fire up that heart!	Anything goes, so long as you believe in this power you possess	Anything goes, just don’t give up the ghost. You are the star of the show	Anything Goes, those kind of feelings are what light up your heart
	Notes: See Shiva Rea’s Tending the Heart Fire: Living in Flow with the Pulse of Life
15.	Original	Oddfellow	Yoroshiku	TV-N	Tyndle	Lallemand	OZC
	満たされるものを探して (mitasareru mono wo sagashite)	Follow your bliss	Search for what gets overflowed	Find something to fulfill you	Accept a trial from anyone and suppress	And the show must go on no matter what they say	Seeking what you need to be fulfilled
	Notes: “By bliss I mean the deep sense of being in it, and doing what the push is out of your own existence—it may not be fun, but it’s your bliss and there’s bliss behind pain too. You follow that and doors will open where there were no doors before, where you would not have thought there were going to be doors, and where there wouldn’t be a door for anybody else” (Joseph Campbell, The Hero’s Journey, page 217).
16.	Original	Oddfellow	Yoroshiku	TV-N	Tyndle	Lallemand	OZC
	Life goes on! 本気出して戦うのなら (honki dashite tatakau no naru)	Step by step, give it your all	Life goes on! If you get serious and fight	Life goes on! Time to get serious! If you are going to fight	Life goes on, just keep your sense of pride, and hang on tight for the ride	Life goes on, the pain is yesterday. Today’s gonna be easy	Life goes on, so if you fight with everything you have
	Notes: “There is always a ‘next’ — something is always going to happen, signifying that, in the honored phrase, ‘life goes on’ — so one’s logical response to the vicissitudes of life is to keep on living it” (The Comics Journal, Issues 265-268, page 190). “May you not forget that every step is as important as the first and the last steps” (Competition Science Vision, Jan. 2001, page 1439). “Every inch makes a step, and every step is a footprint marked by forward progress” (William St. George, The Saint’s Way, page 52).
17.	Original	Oddfellow	Yoroshiku	TV-N	Tyndle	Lallemand	OZC
	負ける気しないはず! (makeru ki shinai hazu!)	And never admit defeat	You’ll never feel like you’ve lost!	then don’t worry about losing	Adventure is laid out for you	You won’t lose, not today	Then you’ll never feel you're going to lose
	Notes: “Never admit defeat or poverty, though you seem to be down and have not a cent. Stoutly assert your divine right to be a man, to hold your head up and look the world in the face” (The Electric Journal, Vol. 3, 1906, page xix).
18.	Original	Oddfellow	Yoroshiku	TV-N	Tyndle	Lallemand	OZC
	外側にステイタス求めないで (sotogawa ni SUTEITASU motomenai de)	Or seek external validation	Don’t seek a status based on your outer self	Don’t seek exterior status	Never venture down a path based on your outer self	Quit trying to be an outsider	- - -
	Notes: “When you continually strive for external validation, it is easy to lose sight of your inner strength and therefore deplete your self-confidence. Seeking external validation results in disempowerment. Seeking approval and corroboration for your decisions and behavior inevitably results in further chaos and confusion in life” (Bente Hansen, The New World of Self-Healing, page 153).
19.	Original	Oddfellow	Yoroshiku	TV-N	Tyndle	Lallemand	OZC
	内に秘める自信が大事 (uchi ni himeru jishin ga daiji)	All that matters is your self-confidence	It’s the confidence hidden inside that is important	What’s important is the confidence within yourself	Confidence from within is what we want to see	Your reserving pride is needed the most	- - -
	Notes: “Although it is important to have self-confidence (jishin), being self-conceited can be the cause of big mistakes. Behind true self-confidence there is a humble spirit” (Kurozumi Shinto: An American Dialogue, page 200).
20.	Original	Oddfellow	Yoroshiku	TV-N	Tyndle	Lallemand	OZC
	欲望増殖 (yokubou zoushoku) Like no limit	Boundless determination	Desire multiplying like no limit	Greed increases, like no limit	Desire, set fire like no limit!	Corrupting desires, like no limit.	- - -
	Notes: “Limitless desire creates a more unified quality of life where ... people [are brought] closer together and ... the common good ... [is] held in the highest esteem” (Acharya Kedar, The Sutras on the 5-Fold Act of Divine Consciousness, page 125).

	その背を比べ並んだって (sono sei wo kurabe narandatte)	Stature isn’t comparative	Comparing that height; lining it up	Even if you line up to compare heights	Do not try to compare yourself to anyone else	You have to be a somebody on your own	- - -
	Notes: “The glory of the human race is the uniqueness of each individual, the fact that every person, though similar in many ways to others, possesses a completely individualed personality of his own. It is the fact of each person’s uniqueness—the fact that no two people can be wholly interchangeable—that makes each and every man irreplaceable and that makes us care whether he lives or dies, whether he is happy or oppressed” (Murray N. Rothbard, Egalitarianism as a Revolt Against Nature, and Other Essays, page 247).
23.	Original	Oddfellow	Yoroshiku	TV-N	Tyndle	Lallemand	OZC
	意味なくない? 一抜けしよう (imi nakunai? ichi nukeshi you)	When you’re one of a kind, there are no rivals	Won’t the meaning be gone? Count it out	Isn’t that pointless? Let’s try to be first	One thing you should cherish is your uniquity	Who cares what others say? Remember you’re the host!	- - -
	Notes: “Each of us is so unique there really is no use in comparing or trying to be someone else. We have much to learn from each other but expressing your uniqueness and embracing your individuality is where your bliss truly lies” (Urok 33 Day Challenge: Dream Your Life, Live Your Dream, page 17).

	You can be free from average	You can be free from average	You can be free from average	You can be free from the average	You can be free from the average!	You can be free from the average	- - -
	Notes: Averages “do not necessarily represent any one object that they describe” (David L. Rados, Pushing the Numbers in Marketing, page 59). “The basic problem with averages: they can hide what you need to know” (Julie Packard, “The Pitfalls of Problem Solving with Averages”).

	Notes: “The reason we count is connected with the fact that we are counted in the first place, for we are counted out of universal being and are structured according to numbers” (Rudolf Steiner, Materialism and the Task of Anthroposophy, page 136).
26.	Original	Oddfellow	Yoroshiku	TV-N	Tyndle	Lallemand	OZC
	大丈夫。みんなと違ってもいい (daijoubu. minna to chigatte mo ii)	Rest assured — diveristy makes for a rich tapestry	It’s ok—it’s alright to be different from everyone	It’s okay. It’s alright if everyone is different	Worry not, your selfhood will convey sight to the blind	It’s okay to be different as long as you're not me!	- - -
	Notes: “Diversity is crucial to life’s success. Diversity enables life to keep trying out new forms of molecular organization” (Martine Rothblatt, “How Can a Mindclone Be Immortal If It’s Not Even Alive?”).
27.	Original	Oddfellow	Yoroshiku	TV-N	Tyndle	Lallemand	OZC
	別々それぞれだからそう、奇跡的! (betsubetsu sorezore dakara sou, kisekiteki)	A wonder to behold	Because everyone’s different, it’s a miracle!	It’s because each of us is different that it’s miraculous	All eyes will be upon you on the day you leave your fears far behind	Don’t you know that being yourself is a miracle indeed!	- - -
	Notes: “Diversity is a wonder of nature” (Dele Ajaja, Tear Down the Iron Curtains).

When that heart seeks something	Anything goes, so long as you believe that your heart is the only place	Anything goes! Just don’t give up the ghost!	- - -
	Notes: The importance of pursuing one’s heart’s desire: “Whatever it may be, however worthy or unworthy it may seem in itself, if our quest for it is difficult and challenging enough, and if we engage in it with an open heart and authenticity of spirit, then throughout the pursuit we can often have the chance to do a form of good in the lives of others, as well as in our own, that we never could have imagined” (Tom V. Morris, “Your Heart’s Desire”).

	Notes: “When you decide never to give up, change will always be necessary.

Be a person who’s not afraid of possibilities” (Michael Fulmore, Unleashing Your Ambition, page 7).

	Notes: “For Aristotle, the ‘one’ is the beginning of knowledge, the ‘that from which,’ cause, origin, of knowledge; it is the first measure as the mark by which a thing and its genus can be made intelligible, brought out of darkness. ... The meaning of ‘one’ then is not ‘some kind of number,’ but ‘some kind of starting point (or principle) of number’” (Andrew Haas, Hegel and the Problem of Multiplicity, page 34).
