I've tried this and it doesn't work. The portraits are in agressively neutral poses, so if I try to extend them downwards I just get limply-hanging arms all over the place.

What I might do is add a credits slide to each song, which could include the portraits as originally drawn.

That... would probably help, yes. Depending on how you did it. I mean, it certainly can't hurt, right? ^_^

I've archived the libretto with chords; it's an ugly page, because all the pictures have been stripped out, but at least it's reliable.

Speaking of which... I could probably put together a copy of the English libretto with the chords in place. Would that be any help in writing the accompaniment?

EDIT: 'I could probably' == 'Now I'm two songs in'. It's at the bottom of the English Libretto. I've put it in a monospaced font, so the chords will line up perfectly; all I'm doing is hitting space until they're in the right place.

(It is possible some of them in the Oath are not in the right place, but I did my best.)

I don't know whether it'll be any help to you, but it's nice to have.

Since I don't read guitar music, the only change I've made is H > B to accord with the international standard.
