Below some broader context. The guy (Kodaka) told the girl something along the lines of "I like that way you look" and she got kind of overexcited.
Thanks for the help, Toritoribe!
Need a word or phrase translated?

My interpretation is correct.
Hi guys,
Can you please translate my navigation buttons for me? Some are in Japanese so I need to know meaning for each button.
If it is hard to read in attached file, please check this link:

The two Japanese buttons say "current location" and "menu".
You probably won't be able to use the navigation/GPS feature because of your location. The audio features should work.
Thanks Mike. My memory card is lost, so I can't use anything at all. Looking for it online. Thanks again for quick translations

Today I was helping a friend reading a paragraph, but there's a sentence that I'm not sure what it implies. Can someone please help me understand the last sentence in the following context?
明確な目標ができた。目指す場所が遥か遠くに見えた。一昨日までならそこまで走り続けなければいけないと、はやる感情にただ突き動かされていたけど、今は違う。
神様に説き伏せられ、頭も冷えた。僕は、僕が持続できる最高速度で進んでいく。
時間が惜しいと思う気持ちは正直拭えないけど、ヴァレンシュタインさんに追い付くには、きっとこれが一番の近道だとも思う。無理した分、ツケは必ずいつか返ってくるから。

What is your interpretation? What part don't you understand?

Thanks for the quick reply. The part that is confusing me is the word ツケ. My dictionary shows different meanings for the words, and I just can't decide what it means here to even begin guessing the meaning of the whole sentence.

付け means "buying something on credit" there, and 付けが帰ってくる/回ってくる is an idiom.
If I do overwork, I will have to pay for it someday.

Thanks a lot Toritoribe. It makes perfect sense now. I was thinking it might be an idiom, but I couldn't find the dictionary form of it 
I have a question about some Japanese dishes I received as a gift...I'd like to know more about them. I've included a picture of the back of the plates...if someone could translate so that I could look them up, I'd be very thankful.

Hello, I have a wooden tiger figurine with some text that I cannot translate (it might be Korean, I am not sure), as well as a tokkuri with characters that cannot be translated via picture extraction methods. If somebody could help me, I would be grateful.

Interesting... These items have taken on a new tenor. Many thanks
When I put into translate of the term 遺憾千万、it came up as regrettable ten million, and I do not mean the literal translation but the 四字熟語。
２。暗中飛躍
３。暗中模索
４。衣冠束帯
５。意気衝天
６。意気阻喪
７。異端邪説
８。一言居士
Just to let you know that Google Translate will not provide decent answers and will only result in fractured idioms at best.
Other words:
１ 俤
２。叺

Have you tried putting any of those phrases + を英語で into a search engine? You should get a few worthy responses.
