Translator notes:

¹ 腐海 (fu kai) written with these kanjis doesn't exist, there are many "fukai's", some of them being: 不快 → unpleasant; discomfort; 深い → deep; 付会 → add to; etc. The kanji 腐 (fu) means "rotten; decadence; sour" and 海 (kai) means "ocean; sea; beach". I thought of translating the title as something like "deep", since, at least in the songs, it is the most common meaning of "fukai", but I found it safer to translate literally and write this note.
