Sidebar: 源田刑事、ただ今居残り反省中！！（升田は夜勤）　…ただし反省に色はなし。
Detective Genda is just now in the midst of introspection! (Masuda is night shift.) ...But he doesn't seem introspective at all.

警視長
Metropolitan Police Department

Genda: ーっくしょう…
...-oddamnit...

Masuda: 口を動かさずに手を動かしたらどうですか？
How about moving your hand without moving your mouth?

Genda: こんな明け方始末書書くのにそうそう文面なんぞ思いつくか　アホウ
Moron! Like I can think of what goes in this written report at the crack of dawn?

前回のあらすじ
ワイズマンの操る暴徒に囲まれ、孤立無援の護！一方、井川も執拗な追跡に苦しめられていた…。そしてジュリエットが井川救出に向かおうとしていたその時、病床で苦しんでいたはずの遥が姿をくらましてしまったー。
Summary from last time: Mamoru is alone and unaided, surrounded by Wiseman's manipulated mob! Elsewhere, Igawa is being harassed by persistent pursuit...and when Juliet heads out to rescue Igawa, there's no sign of Haruka, who should have been suffering in her sickbed.

Masuda: はい
捜査１ー
Yes, this is the first investigative--

Masuda: えっ？
誰だあんた
Eh? Who is this?

Masuda: あっ！？
Ah--!?

Genda: ！？

Masuda: お　おい！
H-hey!

Genda: …なんだ？
...what is it?

Masuda: …源田さん名指しで
刀を持ったサムライが暴れているって
They asked for you by name and said there's a samurai carrying a katana getting violent.

Genda: ！？

It looks easy, but to evade them all so beautifully when they're cowded together like that and each one is moving arbitrarily on their own is a Herculean task.

Turus: …むう

Wiseman: あれは相手の動きを完全に見切っているからできる芸当だよ
That's a stunt he can perform because he sees through them completely.

それがまだ反撃にでも余力を持っている
By my assumptions, he shouldn't be going another step after being chased around like this. That is, if he plans to have enough in reserve to counterattack.

Turus: まさか奴の技量をその眼で観戦したくてこの計画を仕組んだんじゃあ…
Surely he didn't arrange this scheme just so he could watch that guy's ability like a sports game...

Wiseman: で…被害は？
So...the damages?

Komura: …今のところの報告では十四人ーですな
...according to the latest report, 14 people.

Summary from last time: Mamoru and Igawa started on the road home, unable to gather anything from tailing Chief Matoba. But en route, they were suddenly surrounded by enemies! Mamoru leaped onto the highway in order to let Igawa escape. They're being attacked by Edge Turus, Komura, and Wiseman's plan!

Komura: 俗称『エンジェルダスト』
麻酔として作られた幻覚剤ですよ
People call it "Angel Dust." It's a hallucinogen originally created as an anaesthetic.

Wiseman: その副作用の幻覚は強力でー
The hallucination side-effects are quite strong --

Wiseman: 人間の限界近い腕力を発揮して暴れる中毒患者に警察が数十発の弾丸を浴びせ掛けても
しばらく死なずに暴れていたそうだ
Apparently an addicted patient displaying brute strength nearly the limit of human ability was shot a few dozen times by the police but still raged on for a while without dying.

Turus: …

Wiseman: 警官の腕を引き抜きハルクさながら車をひっくり返したという逸話も聞いている
I even heard from a policeman I scouted that one flipped over a car, just like The Hulk.

Wiseman: …
もちろん皆が皆そうならわけではないが
Of course, everyone doesn't necessarily act like themselves.

Wiseman: 催眠療法と併用すれば　簡単に死を忘れる暴徒となる
特に今回の奴らはナイフで体中に傷を入れながら　あのサムライが己を切り刻むという暗示を刷り込んだ
If used together with hypnotherapy, they can easily be made to forget death and become insurgent. In particular, these ones have been carved up with a knife while imprinted with the suggestion that the samurai is the one who mangled them.

This is the event I've readied for you. Please, enjoy it.

こっちにもぴったりと二台張りついたままだ
Yeah! Their target was us from the beginning!
There's two cars still stuck right on my tail.

Igawa: 護のサポートに回れない
車ごとぶちかまして強行突破するかー
I can't go back around and support Mamoru. I can bulldoze my way through if I hit them with the van--

Juliet: だめよ！！
No, don't!

88．

Juliet: そんなに準備万端の相手ならその特装車だって対抗策ぐらい考慮してあるよ！

If the enemy's that well prepared, they'll even have taken your van's special equipment into consideration!
I'm going to come cover for you, so forget about Mamoru and buy some time.

Don't talk nonsense. It's your own fault you weren't able to finish the equipment mods in time.
Even if you had, it's not suited for a stakeout.

Igawa: …わかってるよ…
くそ～っ…
...I know...Shiiit...

Igawa: ネットワークからの情報を総合すると的場組長が再び狙われる可能性は大

Putting together the info from the Elements Network, the chance of Chief Matoba being targeted again is high. These recent turf wars are surprisingly deep-rooted.

前回のあらすじ
予知について学び、遥の能力への理解を深めようとする井川。一方、護の命を狙うエジー・トゥルスと古村は、ブレインとして迎え入れたワイズマンの策略の準備に取りかかっていた。凶悪な謀略が、今動き出そうとしていた…。
Summary from last time: Igawa develops a better understanding of Haruka's ability by learning about precognition. Meanwhile, Edge Turus and Komura, who want Mamoru's head, set about preparations for the scheme of Wiseman, who was brought in as a "brain." Right now, a fiendish plan is coming alive...

Igawa: 警視庁の『マル暴』も一応警戒しているがー
The police's anti-syndicate forces are on guard just in case, but--

Igawa: 正直　病院や一般への被害を優先して
組長へはあまり重点を置いていない
Honestly, their focus is on damage to the hospital and the general populace. They aren't putting much emphasis on the chief.

Igawa: むしろ家族の護衛を強化している
Instead they're strengthening the protection on his family.

Mamoru: …当然だろうな…
本人は近代系武闘派の筆頭と言っていい
...it's only natural...you could say he himself is at the top of the list of the "armed struggle" faction.

Mamoru: 必要な護衛は腐るほどいるからな
There's enough of a guard on him for him to grow mold.

Igawa: ーだからってこんな時間に退院かよ
襲ってくれって言ってるようなもんだろうに
--which is why they're discharging him at a time like this. It's like they're saying, "Please, attack us."

260．

Mamoru: …襲って欲しいんだろ
They probably want to be attacked.

Igawa: えっ？
Eh?

Mamoru: 完璧を期して待っているからこそ比較的襲いやすい夕暮れを選んだ
やられっぱなしでいれば　面子に関わるのが暴力団の考え方だ
It's exactly because their protection is so perfect that they picked a time that's as wide open to attack as this. If they've been beaten down, the crime syndicate way of thinking is to save face.

Igawa: まあ　それなら準備万端だ
罠とわかってて襲っちゃこないだろ
Well, if that's the case, they've made all the preparations. There won't be an attack if it's clear that it's a trap.

Mamoru: …いや
気を抜くな…
No...don't let your guard down...

Igawa: …だって今…
そうか…
...but right now...I see...

Igawa: 遥の態度が気になるんだな？
Is Haruka's behavior bothering you?

261．

Haruka: 待って下さい！
私も行きます！
Please wait! I'm going, too!

Juliet: もう！あなたは熱があるんだから動いちゃだめでしょうよ！！
Hey! You can't be up and about, you have a fever!

Haruka: 今日は絶対に行きます！！
I'm definitely going today!

Juliet: …もう…
...sheesh...

Igawa: 心配はわかるけどー
I understand your concern, but--

262．

Mamoru: 病人は静かに寝ていろ
Sick people should lie quietly in bed.

263．

Mamoru: 違う
Wrong.

Mamoru: 敵は常にこちらを殺す気でやってくる
状況で対応を変える必要はない
The enemy always comes with the intent to kill me. There's no need to change how I deal with them in this situation.

Igawa: …

Mamoru: 危険はいつだって同じだ
全力を尽くして　力及ばなければ己の技が未熟な証拠さ
The danger is always the same.
If devoting the whole of your ability is insufficient, it's only proof that your own techniques are raw.

264．

Igawa: …ふうん…『常時戦場』か…
普段から遥の予知に頼らないわけだぜ…
...hmm...the "constant battlefield" mentality, huh...?
He wasn't relying on Haruka's premonitions from day to day, I guess...

Igawa: これも予定通りきっかり五分の遅れで移動開始だ
Right on time again. We're rolling out exactly 5 minutes after them.

Summary from last time: Edge Tours and Komura, who are targeting Mamoru, advance a new plan. At the same time, Wiseman's analysis of Mamoru, Haruka, and even the Elements Network continues. And the next plan he pushes is using the detective Genda to strike at Mamoru's team.

[Professor?]: 以前ある実験で人間は反応して行動を示すより先に
脳から動きを指令する反応が出ている事がわかったんだ
In an earlier experiment measuring human reactions, it was found that the command to move came from the brain before the movement being reacted to.

Igawa: え！？
Eh!?

Tohyama Haruka: [Same as previous]

[Professor]: 目の前に突然ボールを投げつけられた人間は
それを知覚して反応するのではない
When a ball was suddenly thrown at them, right before their eyes, people weren't perceiving it and then reacting.

[Professor]: ほんのわずかではあるが先に『避ける』とか『受け止める』という行動の指令が脳から出た直後にボールが投げられるわけだ
The command to "dodge" or "catch" was sent from the brain just a tiny bit before the ball was thrown.

[Professor]: 瞬間的なものでいちいち知覚できんほどのわずかな時間差だがね
However, the difference between the two is so momentary as not to be measurable separately.
[trans note: See the experiments of Benjamin Libet, thank to Jikuu for the source! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benjamin_Libet ]

[Professor]: 人間は無意識において　そのような反応を示す事があるわけだが
彼女の場合はそれを意識できるほど早く察知し　己の思考にフィードバックできているのだな
It indicates people have that kind of reaction in their unconscious.
In the girl's case, she can sense things quickly enough to bring them to the conscious level and get feedback from her own thoughts.

Igawa: …

[Professor]: 人間の脳内では量子的な状態が起こっている　というのはロジャー･ペンローズの説だが
それが正しいと見なせば　あり得ない現象で
Roger Penrose's theory is that a quantum state occurs within the human brain. If we regard that as correct, then it's not an impossible phenomenon.
[trans note: for more on Sir Roger and his actually quite interesting theories: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Penrose , http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadows_of_the_Mind:_A_Search_for_the_Missing_Science_of_Consciousness ]

It can also be thought of as foreknowledge coming from something like signs inferred by the comprehensive processing of integral sensory information.

Igawa: この仕事のいい点は普通じゃ手に入らない潤沢な補充がある事だよな
ついでだからバイクも二～三台いっとくか？
Can't usually get ahold of something so well suited to this job. These guys are rolling in supplies.
While we're at it, wanna pick up two or three bikes as well?

Igawa: 日用品で足りない物ないか？
遥のためにゲーム機でも頼もうか
Missing any of the daily necessities? Should we ask for a game console for Haruka, too?

Wiseman: 事件を起こせば奴らは必ず来る
それは今行ってる古村の計画に組み入れて誘い出せばよい
If we cause an incident, they'll definitely come. If we deceive them by tying that in to the plan Komura's running, all the better.

Wiseman: これらを用意してもらいたい
I'd like you to get these things ready.

Komura: ？

335．

Komura: …こんなものを！？
...All of this stuff!?

Wiseman: フフッ…先に話を聞いた君が驚くのならサムライはもっと驚くだろうね
Hehe...if you, who asked about it ahead of time, are surprised, then the samurai should be even more surprised.

Komura: …確かに

第61話　トラップ
CHAPTER 61 "TRAP"

97．
前回のあらすじ
護たちの助けもあり、無事、殺し屋たちから的場紀和とクラスメートを救う事が出来た遥。しかし、彼女らに、自分の本当の姿を見られてしまった遥は、それまですんでいた家、学校から姿を消したのだった…。
Haruka was able to save Matoba Kiwa and her classmates safely from the killers with the help of Mamoru and the others. However, Haruka vanished from the school and home she lived in until then, since her classmates discovered her true situation...

Komura: …教官…
...Professor...

Tours: いや　そのままでいい
ミスターワイズマンはコンピュータ・ルームに入り浸ったきりだ
No, don't get up. Mister Wiseman's immersed himself in the computer room.

Komura: 解析がよほど楽しいのか
He does enjoy analysis a great deal, then?

Tours: ああなると自分なりの結論を出すまで　まず出て来ないだろう
When he gets like that, he'll barely come out until he can present his own conclusions.

98．

Komura: 彼の興味は当のサムライよりも
背後に存在する戦闘集団に向いているようですがね
It seems as though his interest is less in the samurai himself than in the combat group that exists behind him.

Tours: …
仕方がないさ
Nothing I can do about that.

Tours: 相手がたった独りなら　すでに彼はどうとでも料理できると結論づけている
より強敵の方に意義が行ってしまう
If my opponent were alone, Wiseman would have already have handled this one way or another. The stronger enemy has more significance.

Tours: ところで自分の計画の首尾はどうだ？
By the way, how is your scheme progressing?

Komura: 報告を信じるなら　予定通りでしょうかね
If you believe the reports, right on schedule.

99．

Komura: ワイズマンにまずまずと太鼓判を押してもらった計画ですから
余計な邪魔者が入らなければ成功するでしょう
This plan got the stamp of approval from Wiseman. It should succeed, so long as extraneous nuisances don't get involved.

Tours: …邪魔者か…
...nuisances, hmm...

Komura: そう　邪魔者です
計画自体には支障はないものの
的場の家族を仕留め損ねています
Right. Nuisances. Although there are no obstacles to the plan itself, we missed out on bringing down Matoba's family.

Tours: …奴か…
...that guy...

Tours: しかし　俺の賞金で集めあぶれた傭兵たちを雇い
標的を狙うか
その邪魔者も俺とミスターを使って除去しようというわけか
But...hiring the men my bounty failed to gather, and point them toward the objective? That means that nuisance will use Wiseman and I to get rid of them.

The tension between the organizations is now reaching a climax.

Wiseman: 驚くべき事にー
あのサムライは超音波の反響音で敵を見ているのだ
The surprising thing is: that samurai sees his enemies using ultrasonic echolocation.

107．

Komura: え？
Eh?

Tours: …超音波？
...ultrasonic?

Wiseman: そう…まるで蝙蝠のようにね
だからサウンド･キャンセラーを搭載した『ビスート』が見えず
異様に手こずっていたわけさ
Correct...almost like a bat. That's why he couldn't see Beast, who had sound cancelers equipped. He had a bizarrely hard time.

Tours: …

Komura: しかしー
それならどうやって『ビスート』を退けたと言うのです？
But -- then how are you saying he got rid of Beast?

108．

Wiseman: 武道の名人は決して眼だけで相手を察知しているわけではない
五感全てを研ぎ澄ましあらゆる場面での情報を収集して判断を下す
Masters of the martial arts never use only their eyes to sense their opponent. They hone all five sense so they can gather up all the information from a scene to hand down judgment.

Tours: …

Komura: …奴がかなりの使い手である事など最初から分かっています
ただ達人というわけでは納得できかねます
We knew from the beginning that he's a considerably skilled swordsman. Is it not enough to say he's a master?

Wiseman: 彼のバックにいるオペレータがプログラマーとしては飛び抜けて優秀だという事だ
The operator behind him is a preeminently superior programmer.

109．
[Diagram illustrates wave interference. For more detail: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_interference -- remember, stay in school, kids! Physics is awesome!]

Komura: オペレーター…
An operator...

Wiseman: 『ビースト』のサウンド･キャンセラーに対し
超音波の周波数をランダムに変更させる事で対処し
Against Beast's sound cancelers, he coped by making the frequency of the ultrasonic waves change randomly.

Wiseman: 最後的に勝利に結びつけた
His victory at the end is tied to that.

Tours: たかが数時間でですか？
In just a few hours?

Wiseman: そう
普通に考えたら確かにそれは無理だ
Correct. If you think about it, normally that would surely be impossible.

Wiseman: ただ周波数を変更するソフトウェアが先にあれば　それをランダムに変更させるプログラムを組むのは可能だろう
Only if he already had software to change the wavelength frequency would it be possible to assemble a program to randomize the frequency.

110．

Wiseman: そして例の予知能力を持った少女の存在だ
間違いなく『ビースト』を退けたのは　彼女の能力が関わっている
And there's the existence of that precognitive girl. Make no mistake, Beast's defeat was connected to her ability.

Wiseman: 彼女は守ってもらいながらも同時に己のボディーガードをも守っているわけだな
In short, while she's being protected, she's protecting her bodyguard at the same time.

Wiseman: 偶然とはいえー
To call it coincidence--

Tours: 互いを補完し合う固いチームができてしまったという結果だ
ぬうっ…
The result is that they've come together as a tough team that complements each other. Nnnggh...

Komura: …しかしなぜ…
そんなに組織だったものが動いているのにこちらに情報が流れて来ないのでしょう？
...But why...if an organization of some kind is taking action, why haven't we gotten any information about it?

111．

Komura: …エレメンツ･ネットワーク…
...the Elements Network...

Wiseman: なんですって？
What did you say?

Wiseman: ネット上にそういう名のアンダーグラウンドな自衛組織があるという噂は数年前から流れていた
私でさえ　その正体は摑まえていない為ー
There's been a rumor on the Net for a few years now of an underground independent organization by that name. Even I haven't been able to grasp their true identity--

Wiseman: 人々の願望を込めた　ただの噂と思っていた
他に心当たりがない上に奴らの行動の規模から推し量るならー
I thought it was just a rumor, made up out of the desires of the people. Not only do I have no clues about them, but if I were to speculate on their scope from their actions--

112．

Wiseman: 間違いなく
大がかりな組織と断言してもいいだろう
There's no mistaking that they are a large-scale organization.

Wiseman: クククッ
*kukukuku*

Wiseman: 面白いな
私をも欺き存在する秘密組織
This is interesting! A secret organization which can deceive even me.

113．

Komura: …ミスター…
...Mister...

Wiseman: 是非とも全貌を知りたい衝動に駆られるよ
I am quite driven by the impulse to find out the full picture.

Tours: …ワイズマン…そろそろあなたに動いてもらった方がいいかも知れません…
...Wiseman...I may ask you to take action soon.

Wiseman: いやいや
今は別の計画の進行中だ
君が恨みを晴らしたいのはわかるが　まだ焦る事はない
No, no. I have a different plan underway right now. I understand that you want to take your revenge, but it's not yet time to be impatient.

Tours: しかしバックにそれほど巨大な組織があるのなら
それが完全に機能する前に奴を追い詰めたい
But if there's such a trmendous organization behind him, then I want to run him down before it has a chance to fully organize.

114．

Tours: 奴を…どうしても…
Run him down...No matter what...

Wiseman: …
では『彼』を利用するというのはどうだね？
...then how about using "him?"

Komura: ！？

115．

Komura: 源田！？

Wiseman: そう
警視庁刑事源田鉄平
新宿御苑では木剣であのサムライと互角に闘っていたという報告もあった
Correct. Police headquarters detective Teppei Genda. There's a report that he faced that samurai on equal footing with a bokken.

Wiseman: 調べたら剣道全日本大会の優勝候補らしい
公務が忙しくさっぱり出番していないようだが
When I researched him, it turned out that he was the number one candidate for the All-Japan kendo title -- but it seems he's been busy with official work and hasn't shown up at all.

Tours: …

116．

Wiseman: 刑事としてもかなり腕利きのようだ
警察と潰し合うというのも面白いだろう
It seems he's quite capable as a detective, as well. It will be interesting to go head-to-head with the police, right?

Wiseman: 必要な人材は私が調達するそれでどうだね？
How about if I provide the necessary talent?

Tours: …マッチメイクとしては見事かも知れませんが…
お任せします
...could be splendid, as matchmaking goes...I leave it in your hands.

Komura: …
…一石二鳥か…
...Two birds with one stone...?

前回のあらすじ
殺し屋たちから命を狙われる的場紀和を守るため、建設中のビルに逃げ込んだ遥。負傷したキロと合流し、上階へと向かうが、次第に追い詰められていく。ついに殺し屋たちが目前に追った瞬間、護が現れ殺し屋たちを一掃したのだったー。
Summary from last time: Haruka ran into a building construction site to protect Matoba Kiwa, who was being targeted by killers. She met up with the injured Kilo and they headed upstairs, but in time were cornered. The very moment the killers appeared before them, Mamoru showed up and wiped them all out.

Kiwa: はああああ
Haaaaaaahh

Jun: …おい！早いトコここから逃げようぜ

S:前回のあらすじ
遥はクラスメートの的場紀和を殺し屋から守るため建設中のビルに入っていく。その頃、仲間と連絡が取れないキロは、単独でビルに潜入。遥は護から受けたレクチャーと自らの予知を駆使し、なんとか敵を近づかせないが、次第に追い詰められていくのだった…。
Haruka entered a building construction site to protect her classmate Matoba Kiwa from the killers. Meanwhile, Kilo, who was unable to contact his comrades, infiltrated the building solo. Somehow Haruka held off their enemies by making use of her own precognition and the lectures Mamoru's given her, but they're gradually being cornered...

Kilo: …くそっ…素人め！
これだから半端な訓練受けた奴らは嫌いだぜ
...shit...amateurs! This is why I hate guys who've only been half-trained.

Kilo: こんな同士討ちしかねない状態でやたらにぶっ放しやがる！
They're liable to fire on each other if they keep shooting recklessly like this!

前回のあらすじ
クラスメートの的場紀和の死を予知してしまった遥は、なんとか未来を変えようと紀和に接触していた。　しかし彼女は事件に巻き込まれるのではなく、暴力団組長である父親絡みで殺し屋に狙われている事が発覚。遥は護に受けたレクチャーを思い出し建設中のビルに入っていく。一方、キロも遥を守るため動き出したのだった！！
Summary from last time: Haruka, who saw a vision of her classmate Matoba Kiwa killed, reached out to Kiwa to try to somehow change the future. However, it is revealed that she does not get tangled up in an incident, but rather is being targeted because of her father, a yakuza boss. Haruka, thinking back to a lecture she got from Mamoru, enters an apartment building construction site. Meanwhile, Kilo went into action to protect Haruka!

Mental!Mamoru: いいな　力が非力で徒手空拳の者は使えるものはなんでも武器として使用しろ
Listen up. Someone powerless, who starts from nothing, must put anything and everything to use as a weapon.

Mental!Mamoru: 小石ひとつ鉛筆一本でも武器に変わる
Even one small stone or a single pencil can become a weapon.

Haruka: …こんな場所にみんなを巻き込んだんだから
なんとしてでも切り抜けないと…
...Since I'm the reason everyone ended up here and mixed up in this, no matter what, I have to get them all through it...

Kiwa: そんな棒っきれで銃にかなうわけないでしょ！
You can't face a gun with a stick like that!

Mako-chan: 黙って殺されたいのかよ！？
You just want to roll over and die!?

Haruka: 待って
Wait.

Haruka: どうせ抵抗するなら
有効にやりましょう
If we're going to oppose them, let's do it effectively.

護とはある場所に源田との闘いで消耗した刀を補充しに赴いていた。　一方、源田は後輩の升田に以前護と古流武術の道場で出会っていた事を明らかしたのだったー。
Summary of last time: Mamoru went to a particular place to replace the katana wasted by his and Genda's fight. Meanwhile, Genda revealed to his junior, Masuda, that he'd met Mamoru before at an old-school martial arts dojo.

Mako-chan: …ああ…
...yeah...

Jun: うッ…
Ugh--

Jun: …だから
そんな事止めろって言ったじゃないかマコちゃん
...that's why I told you to stop doing stuff like that, Mako-chan.

260．

Mako-chan: …いい年なんだからマコちゃんは止めろ　純
I'm old enough to know better, so I'll stop, Jun.

Mako-chan: 一応　奴らの事信じてたんだぜ
ダチだからってな
Just for the time being, I believed in those guys. 'Cause we're pals, right?

Jun: 新面目に高校行ったら？
もうそんな奴らに付き合ってやる必要もねーじゃん
What about getting serious about school? You don't need to hang out with guys like that anymore.

Mako-chan: …今さらかよ…

おばさん泣いてたぜ
It bugs me!
Your old lady was crying.

Jun: だいたい　ちっと強いからっておだてられて
担ぎ上げられて肝心な時には放り出されるなんてのは
Anyway, they just flatter you 'cause you're a little strong.
Once you're buttered up, then they abandon you at important times.

Jun: 真人くんがチョーシ乗ってんのが悪いんだからね
It's bad because Masato-kun always gets carried away with things.

Mako-chan: …ハッキリ言うなぁ…お前
You sure do speak your mind.

Mako-chan: 自分がバカなクソガキだって事もこの間充分思い知らされたよ
The other day made me realize that I'm a stupid little brat.

Summary from last time: Having seen a vision of her classmate Matoba Kiwa gunned down, Haruka follows after her, alone. However, Kiwa met up with friends and Haruka let her chance to call out to Kiwa escape. Furthermore, from their conversation, she found out that Kiwa's friends are burglars that Mamoru punished.

Masuda: 剣道

Genda: 剣道が捨ててきた

[Smith]: 本来　日本刀は適当な厚みと重みを有し
友りがある強靭な刀身が強みである
Essentially, the thickness and weight of a katana are arbitrary.
There are other swords with comparably tough blades.

[Smith]: いくら持ち運びや切断の都合とは言え
こんな軽い剃刀のようなほとんど友りのない刀
However, no matter how much you may carry it around or what you may cut, a light, razor-like sword such as this is almost peerless.

[Smith]: 本来なら勧められない

By all rights, I shouldn't recommend using it.

[No speech]

54．

Haruka: た　ただいまあ
I-I'm home!

Juliet: …お帰りぃ…
...welcome back...

55．

Haruka: …シエラさん
…容体ひどいんですね
...Sierra-san's...condition is terrible, isn't it?

Juliet: …らしいわね…
...So I hear...

Juliet: まったくドジよねぇ…
Jeez, she's such a klutz.

Juliet: 返り討ちに遭うなんざ
Beaten at her own game...

Juliet: ウォールの名折れだわ…
She's a disgrace to The Wall.

56．

Juliet: …

Haruka: 護さん！！
MAMORU-SAN!

Mamoru: ！？
な…なんだ？
Wh-what?

57．

Haruka: なんなんですか
あの女の人！？
What is that woman!?

Mamoru: ジュリエットか？
負傷したシエラの代わりだ
Juliet? She's here in place of Sierra, since she's injured.

Haurka: そんな事はわかってます！
I understand that!

Haruka: なんでシエラさんをあんなひどい言いようでー
Why is she saying such terrible things about Sierra-san--

Juliet: …またか…
...again...?

Haruka: また？
"Again"?

Mamoru: 井川や俺にもそういう態度だった
Igawa and I were the same way.

58．

Mamoru: アレは多分…
最初に他人の感情を揺さぶって
That's probably...
Shaking up others' emotions from the start

Mamoru: その態度を見極める独特なコミュニケーション方法なんだろうな
And probing their reactions as a unique form of communication, I think.

Haruka: そうなんですか…！？
でもー
Is that true?
But--

Juliet: …さすがね…
...just as I expected...

Haruka: きゃっー

Juliet: あなたこそよく人を見てるわ
You yourself view people well.

59．

Juliet: さすが隊長に認められただけの事はあるわね
That's just what the commander recognizes in you.

Mamoru: …

Juliet: お嬢ちゃんの予知能力ってのも感情的になると簡単に出し抜かれるような
And it seems your prediction ability can be called forth easily if you get emotional.

Haruka: …

60．

Juliet: 隊長が心配した通り難しい状況に向かっているからね
The commander is concerned about the difficult circumstances you're heading into.

Juliet: ゆっくりコミュニケーション取ってる暇もないんですー
We don't have time to leisurely establish communication.

Juliet: 勝手に人となりを測らせてもらったのよ
I summarily decided to weigh your dispositions.

Mamoru: …

Juliet: ところでー
By the way--

Juliet: お腹すいてるの
なんか食べさせてと
I'm hungry. Can you make me something to eat?

61．

Juliet: ね？
Ok?

Haruka: …なんなのこの人…！？
...that woman is something else...

62．
[trans. note: names changed to protect the innocent]

Cap: …莫大な賞金額に釣られて東京に来てみたが…
お前ら情報はあるのか？
I was lured out by the amount of the bounty and came to Tokyo, but...
You guys have any info?

Forehead: 例の『娘』に唯一の肉親の祖母がいるらしいって事くらいか
Just that that girl's only blood relative is a grandmother.

Eyebrows: …ほう…
じゃ　まずそのババアを人質にしてみるか
...Oh...
Then, first we should try taking her hostage.

Muttonchops: …無理だな…
相手との接触方法もわからんのに人質が有用とは思えないぜ
...that's useless...
I don't think a hostage is any use if you don't have a way to make contact with the target.

63．

[Someone]: なるほど…
巧妙に身を潜めているわけだ
I see...we skillfully conceal ourselves.

[Someone]: 捜索をしている警察をマークするのも手だな
Have to avoid getting marked by the police that are out on the search.

Eyebrows: ふん！
どれも面倒くせえな
Hn!
It's all a big pain.

Eyebrows: ドカンと東京で一騒ぎ起こせば
そいつはやってくるんじゃねーのかい？
If we stir things up in Tokyo with one big bang, won't he come running?

Forehead: 問題は　どうやってその強いサムライをぶち殺すか…だ
奴は『牙』をものともしなかったって話だ
The problem is, how do we strike down that powerful samurai?
We're talking about the guy who made short work of "Fang."

64．

Eyebrows: 我々が一斉にかかれば問題ないさ
戦力的に『牙』に劣るとは思えない
If we all band together it's not a problem.
I don't think we'd all fall short of "Fang's" combat capabilities together.

Eyebrows: しかも
しょせんは刀使い銃の敵じゃないぜ
Furthermore -- no sword-user is an enemy for a gun, after all.

Trucker Hat: そいつはいい考えかもな
That guy might have a good idea.

Forehead: …

Trucker Cap: 全額手に入れられれば我々で山分けしても一人一億ドルは下らない
If we can get the full bounty, an equal split between us hardly decreases 100 million dollars.

[Someone]: 少々のヤバイ橋は渡る価値はある
There's merit in going a little bit out on a limb*.
[trans note: lit: "crossing a dangerous bridge"]

[Someone]: もし想像以上の相手だったとしてもー
And if he's an enemy even beyond your imagining--

[Someone]: これだけの額なら一声かければいくらでも人数を集めてみせるぜ
For this much money, just give a shout and any number of people will gather for you.

65．

[Someone]: 一応一通り行動してみるべきだろう
For the time being, we should try acting together.

Alpha: …

Muttonchops: 最後的にひと暴れする事になっても
そん時はそん時だ
And in the end if someone gets a little violent, well...the future is the future.

[Someone]: これを最後に一生遊んで暮らせるんだからな
At the end of this, you could play around for the rest of your life.

Bartender: ありがとうございました
Thank you very much.

66．

Sierra: た　隊長！？
C-commander!

67．

Sierra: う…うう

Alpha: いいから寝ていろ
It's fine, lie down.

…

Sierra: …すいません
I'm sorry.

Sierra: …任務を全うできなくなりました…
...I couldn't do my duty properly...

Sierra: 申し訳ありません
Please forgive me.

68．

Alpha: …ああ
...Ah.

Alpha: き　気にするな
Don't...Don't mind it.

Alpha: ブレード達には代わりの者を合流させた
I brought a substitute into Blade's group.

Alpha: 君は前回の作戦から休みなしだ
You haven't had any rest since the previous mission.

Alpha: 少しは身体を休めたまえ
Let your body rest for a little bit.

Sierra: 私はなんの役にも立てないばかりか
Not only did I serve no purpose,

Sierra: 敵に捕らえられて人質にまでされて…
But to be caught by the enemy and made a hostage, even...

69．

あの娘の役に立てる自信が
なくなりました…
The confidence that I can be of use to that girl has disappeared...

Alpha: …

Alpha: 君らしくなく
ずいぶんと弱気だな…
It's unlike you to be so faint-hearted...

Sierra: でも
あの殺し屋相手にまともに太刀打ちできなかったんですよ！
But I couldn't even go toe-to-toe with that killer!

70．

Alpha: …ああ
…『牙』か…
...Ah, "Fang," hm?

Sierra: 『牙』？あいつが！？
"Fang?" That guy!?

Alpha: 相手は名うての殺し屋だ
Your opponent was a renowned killer.

Alpha: 私だって一人で捕まえる自信はないぞ
Even I have no confidence I could capture him on my own.

Sierra: …隊長
…女を慰めるの下手ですよね
...Commander.
...You're not very good at comforting women.

71．

…ほっといてくれ…
ど～も女子供は苦手だ…
...Leave me alone...
Really, I'm terrible with women AND kids...

Sierra: …

Alpha: 恐れていた状況になってきたが…
他の輩も似た様な事を考えるだろう…
It turned into a situation that frightened her, but...
Her fellow troops would think the same way.

Alpha: さて
どうするかね？
Now, then. What to do?

Killers-10

前回のあらすじ
新宿御苑での大掃作戦を終え、旧アジトでTHE・WALLメンバーと合流した護たち。　メンバーたちと共に成功を祝う遥とは別に、護は疲れを癒すため限りについた。　翌日、　護が目を覚ますと遥はすでに学校に行っていた。　そこで遥は、同級生が凶弾に倒れる予知を現てしまうー。
Previous Chapter Summary:
The spring cleaning at Shinjuku-gyoen* finished, members of The Wall reunite with Mamoru and crew at a former hideout. Apart from the Wall members celebrating their success, Haruka is concerned with easing Mamoru's exhaustion. The next day, when Mamoru awakens, Haruka has already gone to school. There she sees a vision of her classmate struck down by an assassin's bullet.

Haruka: …どうしよう…
...what should I do...

Student: ？
的場紀和？？？
Matoba Kiwa?

37．

Student: …

Newswoman: 昨夜未明新宿御苑内におきまして
Last night and early this morning,

Newswoman: 国内外の複数グループ同士による
大規模な発砲事件が発生しました
A large-scale shooting incident occurred between various groups from inside and outside the country.

38．

Newswoman: 事件の詳細は　いまだ不明ですが　警察発表によりますと　重体七名重軽傷者六二名に上るとという状態です
The details of the incident are as yet unclear; however, according to the police announcement, currently 7 are in critical condition with 62 injured, and numbers are climbing.

Newswoman: 不可能なことに被害者の傷のほとんどが刃物によるものであり　そのため取材陣の間では様々な憶測が飛び交っております
Impossibly, the injuries are mostly due to an edged weapon. For that reason, speculation in the event coverage camp has been rampant.

Newswoman: 先日から繰り返し行われている暴力団同士の抗争となんらかの関わりがあるのではないかというー
Some question its relation the recurring gang warfare of the past few days.

Kilo: …へぇ…
テキト－な事言ってるぜ
...Heeeh...
They're making crap up on the spot.

Juliet: …無理でしょ…
あんなに特殊な状況を関係者以外がまともな事件として全貌を推定できると思う？
...Seems useless...
You think outsiders can grasp the full picture by treating a special circumstance like that as a straight-up case?

Kilo: …そりゃそうだな…
…
That's true...

39．

Kilo: しかし
あのサムライがこだわらなければ
ただ犯罪者どもを呼び出しておいて
一網打尽にもできたんだがな
Still, if that samurai hadn't been so persistent, the criminals would just have been summoned here, but we even managed to round them all up.

Juliet: そうね
元々今回の作戦は護の強さを裏社会に見せつける為のものでしょ
Yeah. From the beginning, this plan was for the purpose of showing off Mamoru's strength to the underworld.

Juliet: それがこれだけ大がかりになっちゃったのは　懸けられた賞金額が半端じゃなかったからよ
The reason it turned out so large-scale is that they didn't go by half measures on the bounty they hung on him.

Kilo: わかってらぁ
I get it.

Juliet: …

40．

Kilo: …あんだよ…？
Whaddya want?

Juliet: あんた
そんな無駄口叩きにこんなトコにいるワケ？
You. Are you just here to run your mouth off like that?

Kilo: ふん
暇だからな
Hn. It's free time.

Juliet: …ふぅん…
...Hmmm...

Igawa: …

Haruka: どうすれば助けられる？
What can I do to save her?

Haruka: 銃で撃たれるって事は何かの犯罪？
じゃ助けてもらった方が…
でもこんなあやふやな情報で動いてくれるかしら？
Being hit by a gun means...some kind of crime?
Then the way to save her...
But would he take action on information this uncertain?

Haruka: …

43．

Haruka: ううん
護さんなら…
No, if it were Mamoru-san...

Haruka: トランシーバー　オン
"Transceiver on"

sfx: ピッ
Juliet: ーどうしたん？
授業中に珍しい
What's wrong? In the middle of class, how rare.

Haruka: すみません
護さんは戻ってますか？
I'm sorry. Has Mamoru-san returned?

Juliet: 護？　まだ戻ってないわ
特に運絡もないし…
Mamoru? Still hasn't come back.

Haruka: …そうですか…
...I see...

44．

Juliet: なんなのかしら？
What was that, I wonder?

Kilo: ああん？
Huuh?

Kilo: えっ！？

Uaaagh!

Genda: 刑事を襲うなんて悪い了見だぜ
Attacking a detective was a bad decision.

Genda: 外国人が俺を襲う理由を聞かせていただこうか
Shall I ask why foreigners are attacking me?

Thug: た　ただの警官じゃないな！
H-He's no ordinary policeman!

Genda: いいや！
正義と平和を愛するただのいち警察官でございますよ　俺は
Why, no!
I am merely a single police officer who loves justice and peace.

Genda: ただちょっと腕っぽしに自信はあるがな
I just have confidence in my own physical strength.

81．

Alpha: 配置はどうなっている？
What's happening with the deployment?

Echo: E分隊は各自指示通りの場所に潜伏済みです
隊長の指令で一斉に行動に移れます
E-squad has finished dispersing to their individual places.

Alpha: まだそのままにさせておけ　タイミングが大事だぞ
Leave them there for now. The timing is crucial.

Echo: 了解
Roger.

sfx: ピッー
*beep*

Alpha: 後は奴か
Now, that guy.

82．

Alpha: 表向きの顔は元大学教授、犯罪研究家トーマス・ジェファーソン
裏では「ワイズマン｣の通り名で知られる犯罪計面者
His public persona is a former university professor researching criminal activity, Thomas Jefferson.
Behind the mask, he's a criminal planner known as "Wiseman."

Alpha: わかっている事はこれだけか。。。
All I know is this...

Alpha: 今回の件
奴も一枚噛んでいるとなると
ー手強いぞ
If he too gets involved in this incident, it'll be tough.

83．

Tours: …ミスター　ワイズマン…
お待ちしました
"Mister Wiseman," I've awaited you.

Tours: 少々不自由な身体でして　このまま話す無礼をお許し願いたい
My body is just a little impaired, so please forgive the rudeness of talking like this.

Wiseman: なに構わんよ
Oh, please, I don't mind.

Komura: このおっさんがエジー･トウルスに犯罪学を叩き込んだ犯罪界のフィクサー
…ワイズマンか
This old geezer is the "fixer" of the criminal world who drove Edge Tours into a criminal education --
Wiseman, huh.

84．

Wiseman: なるほど…おっかないのを連れているぜ
I see...you brought frightening ones along.

Wiseman: 君ほどの優秀な生徒がそんな目に遭わせるとは余程の相手なのだね、その賞金首
Quite an opponent to have caused such suffering to a student as excellent as you, that bounty.

Tours: …はい…
...yes...

Wiseman: では　なぜ私にその殺害を依願しないのかね？
危険を冒してまで私を呼び出したのに
Well, then. Why didn't you request that I perform the killing? Since you went so far as to brave dangers to summon me.

85．

Tours: …
Komura: !?

Wiseman: ガルボアは『強奪者』の責任を君ひとりに被せ
動けない君の口を塞ぎたかっているのはわかっているのだろう？
Galboa has charged only you with the duty of plundering.
You understand why they want to still the tongue of you who cannot move?

Wiseman: 私がガルボアに雇われていたらどうする気だった
If I'd been hired by Galboa, you'd have been at a loss.

86．

Wiseman: そんな中　君の異母兄弟の『牙』まで生贄に差し出し
莫大な賞金をかけ世界中からひとりの男を狙わせるー
とても正気の沙汰とは思えないがねぇ…
To that end, even your half-brother Fang was offered up as a sacrifice.
To make the whole world aim for one man by offering an enormous bounty -- this doesn't seem to be a sane affair.

Tours: …

Wiseman: ただ殺すのでは物足りないか…
それほど憎い相手なのだね？
Just to kill him is unsatisfactory...
He's an opponent you hate to that extent?

Tours: …

Tours: プロフェッサーには　先に別の仕事をお願いしたいのです
I would like to request a different task from you, Professor.

Wiseman: 別の仕事とは？
A different task?

87．

Tours: この古村の計画のサポートと
『牙』の残した奴の情報解析です
Support for Komura here.
Intelligence analysis for what Fang left behind.

Wiseman: 報酬は？
一億ドルなんて当たり前のものなら御免だよ
My reward?
I'll pass on something as mundane as 100 million dollars.

Tours: あなたがお金自体に興味ない事は存じてますよ
ガルボアの属国デェハナ準国内に希少金属の鉱山があります　その全権を進呈しましょう
I am aware that you have no interest in the money itself.
In the Deihana region of Galboa there is a rare metal mine. I shall present you with full rights to it.

88．

Wiseman: …ほう…
…面白いな…
...Oh...
...Interesting...

Tours: 資産価値はご存じでしょう？
あなたならそれを元にいくらにでもできるはずです
You are aware of the property value?
To you, such an origin should make any number of things possible.

Tours: なに　奴はすぐに賞金に食い付いてくるような雑魚に簡単に殺られはしませんよ
あなたには　その後ゆっくりと仕留めていただければいい
Anyway, that guy won't be knocked off simply by the small fry that come nibbling at a bounty right away.
You can bring him down after that, at your own pace.

Wiseman: …

Wiseman: 成田でかなり使えそうな奴をひとり見たが
あいつの目的が賞金道首なのならそうとは限らんぞー
I saw one guy who looked pretty useful at Narita, but there's nothing saying his objective is the bounty.

Don't you have anything newer?

94．

Shopkeep: この賞金騒ぎで闇市場に拳銃が不足してるんだ
自前の銃を持ち込めなかったんだから　贅沢言わないでくれ
This bounty uproar's caused a shortage of handguns on the black market.
You didn't bring in your own guns, so don't ask for any luxuries.

Mook: 後の便で届くんだ7日後にな　だがそれまで指をくわえて見ているつもりはない
My guns will arrive by mail in 7 days, but I don't intend to drool on the sidelines until then.

Shopkeep: こいつはサービスだ
日本のエアガン用だが充分使えるはずだ
The holster's a freebie.
Made for a Japanese air gun but should work plenty well.

Mook: …ほぅ…
...Oh...

Mook: いや　かなりよくできている
No, this is pretty well made.

95．

Mook: 九ミリパラを取っておいてくれ
Get me some 9-mil clips.

200's good if you've got 'em.

Uwaaaaaaa!

Mamoru: 商売繁盛で何よりだな
How wonderful that your business is booming.

Shopkeep: あ…あんたまさか…
Y..you're...

Mamoru: そうだ
おれが賞金首だよ
That's right. I'm the bounty.

98．

Shopkeep: た…助けて…
H...help me...

Mamoru: 今だけは見逃してやる
俺の言う通りにすればな
This time I'll let you run off, if you do as I say.

Mamoru: このページアドレスに一周間後　俺が
現れる場所を公開する
その事をこれから来る客全員に伝えるんだ
This URL will reveal where I will appear in one week's time. Tell that to all the customers who come in from now on.

Shopkeep: えっ！？
そ…そんな…
Eh!?
Th-that's...

Mamoru: そうだ
全員血祭りに上げてやるぜ
That's right.
I'll give them all a bloodbath.

Move it.

104.

Igawa: あんまり無茶すんなよ
Don't overdo it so much.

Mamoru: ？

Igawa: 今回の事件でのネットワークの評価はそう悪くなかったのに
荒事起こすとまた不評になる
The Network's evaluation wasn't that terrible in this case.
Stage a big fight and you'll get a bad rep again.

Mamoru: そんな事気にするな
Don't worry about it.

Mamoru: 礼儀正しくやったって相手はびびっちゃくれないぜ
If we show proper respect they won't be scared of us.
いや　むしろ舐められる
In fact, they might underestimate us.

Igawa: …そりゃ…そうだけどよ…
That's...true, I guess...

105.

Mamoru: 下手に被害が広がれば誰かが辛い思いをする？
If there's widespread damage because we messed up, who'll it cause painful memories for?

Igawa: …遥か…
...Haruka,, huh...

Mamoru: あのクソ野郎どもの思い通りになんかしてなるものかよ
Do those shitty bastards think I'll do anything according to their plans?

片っ端から全部叩き潰してやるぜ
I'll crush every single last one of them.

Mamoru: それにチマチマやるのは性に合わん
Anyway, it doesn't suit me to be mundane.

106.

Mamoru: 雑魚なんざ一網打尽だ
All the small fry with one cast of the net.

Igawa: …こりゃ荒れるぞぉ…
...this is gonna get violent...

Juliet: いっただきま～す！
Itadakimasu!

Juliet: 美味しそうねぇ
Looks delicious.

Haruka: …
あ～あ…今日も付いて行きたかったのに…
Aaah...I wanted to go with him today, too...

108.

Juliet: お代わり
Seconds!

Haruka: も　もう？
A-already?

Haruka: …あの…
...Um...

Juliet: なぁに？もうご飯ないの？
Wha-at? Already out of food?

Haruka: いえ　そうじゃなくてー
No, it's not that--

Juliet:何？
What?

Haruka: あの…
なんでそんなにシエラさんを嫌うんです？
Why do you hate Sierra-san so much?

109.

Juliet: その話はいいでしょ
ご飯が美味しくなくなるわ
Not that conversation, it'll spoil my appetite.

Haruka: …

Juliet: いつまでも死んだ娘にしがみついているからよ
Because she's always clinging to her dead daughter.

まだいくらでもやり直せるくせに…
Even when she could still start over at any time...

110.

Haruka: そういうあなたはどうなんですか！？
What's that to you?

Juliet: …秘密よ…
...it's a secret...

Haruka: え！？
なんでです！？
Eh!? Why!?

Juliet: お子ちゃまに言う様な事じゃないわ
It's not something you talk about with kids.

111.

Haruka: ご自分でどうぞ！
FEEL FREE TO HELP YOURSELF.

Juliet: わあ
Wah--

Juliet: …人によそってもらう　ご飯は美味しいんだけどなぁ…
...But a meal is delicious when someone else serves it to you...

Juliet: …なるほど…
子供の前で大人げないコト見せないようにしないといけないわね…
I see...
You can't let your immaturities show through in front of a child...

112.

Genda: …土方と遠山遥に莫大な賞金がかかったとなると…
There's an enormous bounty on Hijikata and Tohyama Haruka...

Genda: 一旦署に戻って対策を立てた方がいいな

Mamoru: だが俺がひと暴れする事で圧倒的な恐怖心を植えつければ現場をうまく逃げ出した奴らから噂は拡がっていく
But if I'd gone on a rampage, word would have gotten around from anyone who was overwhemingly terrified and managed to escape.

Mamoru: しかも規模がこれだけの大騒ぎなら警察も大がかりに動くから　被害も少ないのが見越せる
Moreover, with this kind of uproar the police would take large-scale action, so damage can be expected to be minimal.

Mamoru: 事件に尾ひれもついて信憑性も増すーか
うまく考えたもんだ
And the incident will get embellished, increasing our credibility.
It was well-considered.

Side text: ジュリエット、護にマジ惚れ！？
Juliet, really falling for "Blade"!?

44.

Juliet: 銃口から発射弾道を割り出すソフトがあったって距離を取ればそれだけ誤差が出て想定範囲画拡がる
The software computes a ballistic trajectory from the muzzle, and if the range can be acquired, the hypothetical path spreads out no more than the corresponding calculation uncertainty.

その上相手が引き金を引くタイミングまでわかるわけじゃあない
Beyond that, the software can't tell the timing of the opponent's trigger pull.

それをものともせずあの乱戦の中一発も当たってない
Even despite that, in the middle of that melee he hasn't been hit once.

化け物だわ
He's a monster.

隊長がこの無茶な計画をサポートした理由もわかるわ
I understand the reason why the boss supported this absurd plan.

Igawa: 俺も驚いてる
I'm surprised, too.

強い強いとは思っていたけど
Sure, I was thinking "he's strong, he's strong," but

Lightly cutting the limbs to sap fighting strength without using the back of the sword is Mugai-ryuu, right?

Just that I can recognize, there's also Ittou-ryuu, Nen-ryuu, Shinkage-ryuu

He knows that many martial art schools...

Igawa: 何モンだ！？
What the hell is he!?
真っ暗闇だぞ！？
It's completely pitch black!

59.

Igawa: なんでこんな場所で護とまともに闘える！？
How can he fight on equal footing with Mamoru in a place like this?
奴の刀斬れないし単分予層が限界なのか！？
His sword's not cutting, is the monomolecular layer worn out?

Juliet: 夜間装備をしている訳でもなさそうだし
Doesn't seem like he's wearing night-vision equipment.

刀の夜間戦闘に慣れているって事ね
He's used to nighttime sword battles.

相手の刀が斬れないのも高レベルのソード．マスターだからだわ
He's not getting cut by his opponent's sword because he's a high-level swordmaster.

60.

Juliet: 刀での戦闘は刃と刃をぶつけ合うものじゃない
A battle of swords isn't something where blade edges strike against each other.

相手の刃を刀身の側面で弾き飛ばしていなすものよ
It's about repelling the opponent's blade edge with the flank of the sword.

そうでないとどんな名刀でも刃こぼれだらけになるもの
If you don't do that, no matter how famous the sword, it'll fall to pieces.

はげしい打ち合いを『鎬を削る』っていうのはそこからきたんじゃないの？
Isn't that where calling a fierce exchange "shaving shinogi"* came from?

[*"shinogi wo kezuru," fighting so intensely they chip off bits of the other's sword blade. In modern usage, a very intense but well-matched competition.]

Igawa: 鎬？
"Shinogi?"

61.

Juliet: 日本人のくせに知らないの？
You don't know even though you're Japanese?

刀の側面の高くした所のコト
It's the place where a katana's blade broadens.

Igawa: やたらと詳しいな…
You're excessively knowledgeable...

Juliet: 日本語を？ケンドーを？
In Japanese? In kendo?

Igawa: 両方だよ
In both.

Juliet: 任務前の下調べは完璧だもの
My mission preparation was flawless.

Haruka: あの人のは刀じゃないわ
That person's isn't a katana.
