Quality: good

Originally subtitled in Jan 2013, perhaps by Eus, based on Spanish subtitles made by Yefren a little earlier. Retranslated (to fix many mistakes and translate missing song lyrics) and retimed (for the version on Animos's YouTube channel) by Niffiwan in Aug 2026, including rhyming verses. The translation for the few lines from Pushkin's "Devils" comes from the one by Yuri Menis, while the few lines from Lermontov's "Borodino" are taken from the translation of Peter Solovioff.
