  ja-latn: 'SILENT HILL 4 –THE ROOM– Kyoudan: Nukerarenu Ame no Yoshiwara -Tokubetsu-ben-'
notes: 'Limited bonus item for the Japanese PS2 release.

  The story "Nukerarenu Ame no Yoshiwara" is a "kyoudan" based on the claustrophobic
  room theme of Silent Hill 4. "Kyoudan" is a neologism meaning "sound narrative",
  as a play on words pertaining to "koudan", a traditional Japanese storytelling performance
  art. The story''s title can be translated to "No Escape from Rainy Yoshiwara" or
  "Yoshiwara in Inescapable Rain".

  "Nukerarenu Ame no Yoshiwara" was written and performed by the storyteller Ichiryusai
  Teisui VI (1939–2020), the first person to be designated a "living national treasure"
  (persons ensuring the survival of traditional Japanese arts that are in danger of
  disappearing) for koudan performances. The narrative''s atmosphere is backed by
  music provided by Akira Yamaoka, thus bringing to it the musical style of the Silent
  Hill series.

  This release contains an abridged version of LC-1293 but has the background music
  mixed differently. Moreover, the narrative parts are followed by a song from Silent
  Hill 4:

  0:00-6:48: "F —Shosetsu—" from LC-1293 (performed by Ichiryusai Teisui)

  6:48-10:05: "G —Soujou—" from LC-1293 (performed by Ichiryusai Teisui, only contains
  the first part of the narration up until 3:15)

  10:05-16:08: "Room Of Angel" from LC-1292 (performed by Mary Elizabeth McGlynn,
  only contains the first part of the song up until 5:56 with the noise music part
  faded out and essentially cut)'
