Odd Taxi - Quality of Life Subtitle Fix

Odd Taxi Quality of Life Improvement Subtitles
These are the Pony Canyon official subs for Odd Taxi, only I've added song lyrics and culture notes. They synch with the DVD/BD, but if you're using Crunchyroll rips you might need to adjust the timing as streaming rips tend to come with an intro.
I might've accidentally corrected a line here or there because while inside the file I was thinking of it as if it were my own subtitles, but the official subtitles aren't bad or in need of a complete overhaul. I was just already inside the files adding song lyrics.
They should go onto your source files smoothly with MKVToolNix or play in any major media player that supports .ass subs.

As an aside while you're here, there is a Discord Server for Shiki translations but I also drop an update of any unpaid translations I do there. (Or paid if the payor doesn't mind it being shared and doesn't want exclusive claims to it, and it's not porn, or is porn of a franchise I'm otherwise known for translating and so of interest to general audiences.)
Other translation projects in various stages:
Hamatora Stage Plays - I've tried offering people $5.00 to just make a raw timed file for me so I can jump right to the dialogue/signage but nobody's working that cheap. I will eventually do these, if nobody else has done it for the requestor first, but that's the main hold up. My graphics card is crap and it stalls out a lot when trying to load videos in Aegisub, whereas if it's pre-timed I can just translate off the audio and then go through and touch up on visual stuff after the bulk is completed.
Banana Fish Stage Plays - I started on the older ones, but they wrote Max so annoyingly I dropped it. If anyone's really interested, I might pick it up again but the 2021 ones seem of better quality and more interest. Same deal, if someone pre-times a blank .ass file for me, the odds of me getting this done in a reasonable time frame are a lot higher. Otherwise this franchise is very popular so I bet someone else will get it done.
Tokimeki Memorial 4 Girl's Side - I'm not any kind of official translator or organizer or such on this, I'm just going to grab sections as they're available and time allows, but there is a Discord Server about this translation project if you're interested. This is also a popular franchise so whether I do anything or not it'll get done.
