Hajimete No Aku 33

The article posted on MH really makes me wonder if I should step down like Shrimpy did >_<. I mean I know it wasn't written ABOUT me in general, but it feels like it. I'm a shoddy translator at best. *sobs*

BTW I translated this before I read it (something I don't usually do) and therefore didn't know the baby's gender until the end. I'm too emotionally distraught to change it, but I think it's better the way it is. Scantlators, do what you feel is right. (I'm probably not the best person to ask, since I'm shoddy at best....)

(Sfx- Mi-n Min min min miiii reee ree ree reeeee)

(Sfx- Zawa zawa hustle bustle)

Aki: Oh, I think it's that one.

Yuki: Yep, probably.

(Sfx- Pushuuu fusssssh)

(Side text- Jiro, Kyouko and Eiko make their return home!!)

Aki: 'Bout time you guys came home!

(Sfx- Zawa zawa hustle bustle)

Yuki: And you know they'll have stories to tell! Boys and girls returning from trips always do!

Aki: Do you think they're a couple now?

Yuki: Well according to oneechan's texts----

Jiro: Hm?

Oh.

(Bottom text- HAJIMETE NO AKU.)

Kyouko: Aki, Yuki! You guys came to pick us up!

Aki: How's it going you two?

Yuki: Welcome----

002

(Sfx- Gogogogogogogo rmmmmmmm)

Kyouko: Hold on.

Before you guys get the wrong idea, you need to hear me---

003

Yuki: Hm, I had no idea that you two liked each other enough to bring a baby into the world.

Kyouko: NOO!! THAT'S NOT IT!!

Aki: Kyouko, you're still just a High school student!!

Kyouko: Calm down idiot!! There's no way I could have a child that quickly!!

THIS IS JUST--!!

Jiro: Kyouko! You mustn't be too loud---!!

(Sfx- Uuuu)

Kyouko: Ah....

Baby: HIGYAHHHHH!!!

???: See, now he's started crying!!

Kyouko: Ah!! I'm sorry! There there!!

Ahh sorry!!!

He's dripping all over!!

(Sfx- Wata wata wobble wobble)

004

(Black box- The Evil organization working hard for civilian comedy!!)

HAJIMETE NO AKU.

(Top text- You've got to use a tin plate when taking care of animals and children....)

(Bottom text- The 2nd volume of the manga is out in stores!!)

FUJIKI SHUN

(Bottom box- Chapter 33: Cheers for the baby!)

005

(Sign- Wacdonald's hamburger)

???: An abandoned baby?!

Kyouko: Yeah, we found him on the train crying.

There was a note attached that read 'please take care of him'

Aki: Man, to think that there are terrible people like that in the world...


Yuki: So it's like, not your kid then Kyouko-chan?

Kyouko: OF COURSE NOT!!

(Handwritten- By the way, where's oneechan?)

(Handwritten- She wanted to visit a college friend, so she'll be returning later.)

Aki: What are you going to do about the kid?

Kyouko: I thought I'd take him to the train station, however...

006

Jiro: Abandoning a child isn't something that can easily be forgiven!!

I must find those parents and let them know the error of their actions!!

(Sfx- Kuwaaa roaaar)

Kyouko: Is what Dr. Evil says.

Yuki: He's sure chivalrous for someone who wants to take over the world!

Aki: Though I agree with him. We should probably go and talk to the police.

Kyouko: Jiro, do you have a plan for us?

Jiro: Hmph! There's nothing I can't do!

Now lets see, where is it.....

(Sfx- Gozo gozo scriff scriff)

Yuki: Ooh, what's he going to pull out this time?

Jiro: The 'Automatic pursuit' cap!!

(Sfx- Papapapapapapaaaaaa)

007

Jiro: If we put this on his head, the becon will emit a light that leads to the person he loves the most.

(Sfx- Pozu pomf)

Yuki: It's cute!

Jiro: We used to use this on prisoners who wouldn't talk to us back in the organization days though...

But it shouldn't be a problem to locate this child's mother using this method!

(Sfx- Kururi spin)

(Sfx- Piiii veeeeeen)

Jiro: Good! The light is pointing in this direction..!

Now child, forward!

To the place where your parents are located!!

Girls: Ah!

(Sfx- Gabaaa graaab)

Baby: Higyaaaah!!!

Jiro: Why are you crying?! Are you saying you don't want to find your parents?

Kyouko: Don't be so rough with him! He's just a kid you know!!

Yuki: They're just like parents....

008

Aki: Maybe he needs a diaper change and some milk?

There we go.

(Sfx- Gyuu snug)

Aki: He should be fine now.

Everyone: Whooa!!

Aki: I can't count how many times I had to change my kid brother.

Jiro: Oh!

Kyouko: Not bad!

Yuki: I'd expect no less from my wife!

009

Jiro: Now, let us commence...

Baby: Gyaah!

(Sfx- Pitaa pat)

Aki: You can't hold him Akuno, every time you, do he cries.

Jiro: Gah?!

(Sfx- Geeeen doooom)

Yuki: He totally like, dislikes you it seems.

Kyouko: Tehehe....!

Hah, big brother's got a scary face doesn't he little guy?

Jiro: Of course! A villains face should strike fear into others!!!

Kyouko: You're so scawwy~!!

Jiro: Ngh!!

Jiro: Why that child....

All of his crying is no more than a nuisance!

010

{And so, the search for the child's parents began.}

{With Jiro's device, becoming lost is not an issue----}

{But they did run into other issues.}

(Sfx- Ton ton ton ton pat pat pat)

Aki: After he's had his milk, you've got to burp him.

Yuki: Like this?

Kyouko: Whoa, something reeks!

Aki: Akuno, go get some hot water!

{Especially for Jiro, who for some reason is disliked.}

(Sfx- Hiiiiiii~~)


Kyouko: Maybe you should just hold his luggage.

{It wasn't long until this unreasonable reaction wore on Jiro's patience---}

011

(Sfx- Kudariii droooop)

Jiro: To think that a mere babe would bring me to my knees like this...

He cries, becomes dirty, eats constantly, oh and the peeing....

Aki: That's surprising to you?

Kyouko: But he's so cute!

???: At least we seem to be closing in on his location.

Let's take a break here.

(Sfx- Min min min min min miii reee ree reee reeeee)

Yuki?: Okay, I'm gonna use the bathroom.

Kyouko: Jiro, you watch him for a bit.

Jiro: Hmph....

012

Jiro: All you do is drink and then sleep....

Yet your status is so high in the world isn't it child...

Was I like this at one point?

Baby: Uuuh....

Uwaaaaaah!!!

(Sfx- Gabaa graab)

Jiro: Not this again!!!

Do you need a change?! More milk?! Tell me!!

Baby: Uwaaaah!!


Jiro: You're making ME want to cry!!

There's no helping it!

(Sfx- Kyouro kyouro whiff whiff)

Jiro: I can't let this continue...!

(Sfx- Suuu hufff)

Aki: That's AWESOME!!

Kyouko: What's with your face!!

Yuki: You're too cute Jiro-kun!!

Jiro: GAHHHH!!!?

(Sfx- Geeeeeen ppppppiiiit)

(Sfx- Kuwaaa rrrrrrraaaaarrr)

Jiro: Now look at what you've done fool!!

Baby: Dah---!!

Kyouko: You got a smile!!

Aki: Looks like you've got a fan!

Jiro: Punitarou!!!!


(Sfx- Hishii *huuug8)

Kyouko: Why 'puni'?

By the way, he's a she.

(TN- Damn it....)

015

Woman: Thank you so much....

Man: We're in your debt...thank you for taking care of our child.

{At long last they had found the parents.}

{It seems that they've reconsidered their earlier decision.}

Mom: I'm so sorry Kyouko....

Yuki: She's got the same name as you Kyouko-chan!

Jiro: This was rather inconvenient!

Never let it happen again!

Let us go!

Kyouko: Ah...o—okay.

(Sfx- Kuru spin)

Kyouko II: Dah!!

016

Jiro: Punitarou....

(Sfx- Horoi drip)

Kyouko: She's a girl.

Jiro: I'll never forget you!!

(Sfx- Datsu dash)

Jiro: I'm not going to miss you or anything like that either---!!


Kyouko: W---Jiro!!

Yuki: Well, we'll be going then.

(Sfx- Burooooo vroooooommm)

(Sfx- Gogogogogogo rmmmmmmm)

017

Kyouko: Jiro, isn't it about time you stopped moping?

Jiro: I'm not moping! Go away!

Yuki: He's like a big dango.

Aki: I can understand his feelings though.

Kyouko: She was really cute wasn't she?

Aki: Yeah! It was only a day, but I miss her already!

Yuki: So cheer up Jiro-kun.

You'll have a child of your own someday.

And then you'll be able to love it all you want!

Kyouko: Yuki...

Aki: That's a nice thing to say.

Yuki: And....

018

Yuki: I can help you find your beloved partner!

(Sfx- Hyoui Wiff)

(Sfx- Posu tump)

Yuki: Hey look! It's totally going for Jiro-kun!

Aki: Ah...

(Sfx- Hyoi fwuf)

(Sfx- Pozuuu TWOK)

Yuki: Aww, just a little bit closer!

Jiro: Kyouko, where was that pointing?!

Kyouko: To dad! It was pointing to dad!! I'm sure of it!!

Jiro: Gaaah!! My device!!!

Dad: Kyouko's so late....

{Meanwhile, everyone forgot about Dad's existence for a whole week.}

(Banner- Welcome back everyone.)

Jiro: By the way Kyouko....what means would one utilize to create a baby?

(TN- I had a feeling that question was coming XD Oh Jiro....)

(Side text- Jiro, you'll make a good dad someday.)

(TO BE CONTINUED IN ISSUE 42-43.)
