And volume 4 done! So many feels and such a great homage to the Little Prince. It's an interesting read and well implemented here. You guys should put down WSJ and read Gessan once in a while. Then after that read The Little prince.
See you with the next one on or around October 1st.
Psylocke scans only.
Also I have a plurk now, so feel free to friend me there and stuff.Chapter 19: Remembrance is…
???: Kouichi…
Kouichi..
You know…
I was actually really happy when I heard that you disappeared…
Cause..
You’d actually do something like disappear for my sake…
152
Chapter 19: Remembrance is..
153
Nagi: Nngh…
But then when I saw the scenery outside I immediately knew that there was trouble and slipped out of the hospital to find you.
Because I had already sorta figured…
154
Nagi: That you hadn’t died.
Oh by the way…I checked out Grandpa’s shop earlier…
Did you see it Kouichi?
Yeah…it’s probably better you didn’t.
I know how much you love gramps…
I didn’t meet up with Dad and Mom, but I’m sure they got out of there okay.
After all they’re our Mom and Dad…
155
Nagi: Ours and ours alone….
Hahahah….To be honest I can’t feel my right hand anymore..
Kouichi, we’re gonna be together..
Forever and ever.
156
Nagi: I’m actually afraid of dying but…
If it’s with you Kouichi then it’ll be fine…
I’m sorry….and thank you…
157
158
159
{It’s that thing from earlier!!}
{That black thingy expanded earlier..}
{And it began attacking it’s ‘enemy’ in the sky indiscriminately….}
{And then we ended up getting dragged in…}
Nagi: What are you doing to Kouichi!!
Stop that!! Don’t you touch him!!
160
???: Th—
That’s why I told you…
Not to leave there under any circumstances…
Aah…did you die?
I was stupid to have expectations from a child like him…
A weak organism that dies so quickly…
161
???: But now I know your name…and have committed it to memory.
It can’t be anyone else…
I want to spend my time together with you….having fun.
I’ve been thinking of my name this whole time…
You said I was like a bird….
And…
If I were to put my former name into words used here…
162
??? It…
It would be ‘Hope’….
My name will be..
163
Nozomi: Ootori Nozomi…
(TN- Ootori means ‘Giant bird’ while Nozomi means ‘Hope’.)
164
{It is an act too often forgotten.}
165
{It means to establish a bond.}
{“To establish a bond?”}
Nozomi: It somehow feels so…
Empty…
{Just that.}
166
{To me you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys.}
Nozomi: Ugh…
Uugh…
Uhhh…
I can’t…
Stop…
I don’t want to become dark and blackened like before…
{Thus I have no need for you…}
{And you of course on your part have no need for me.}
{To you, I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes.}
167
{But if you tame me…}
{Than we shall need each other.}
{To me, you will be unique in all the world.}
168
{To you I shall be unique in all the world….’ Is what the Fox said to the prince.}
169
Nozomi: I understand full well…
That I can’t bring you back.
And that a broken person can’t be fixed…
But at least…
170
171
172
???: Grandmother…
My eyes…
They really hurt…
Grandma: Ayla…
A great power shakes the eastern lands of this star as it moves…
But what in the world is this….?!
173
Grandma: It is a power of darkness that even my eyes cannot see into….
However I can feel an immense sadness as well…
Nozomi: This is good enough. My role has completely ended…
No..
There’s still one more thing…
Kouichi…
174
Nozomi: My life…
I’ll give it to you.
It’s special you know…
So be sure you treasure it.

Nagi: What’s wrong?
Kouichi: I feel like something important happened….
But I can’t remember it.
180
Kouichi: I wonder ‘what’ it could have been…
Or ‘who’…?
???: You forgot it? Things you can’t remember are the same as things that didn’t happen.
You think?
No…but this wasn’t a ‘something’ but a ‘someone’.
I wonder who it was…I feel like I have precious memories with this person…
But I’ve forgotten…
181
{It is the time that you wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important.}
{Wasting time….}
{Who am I talking about?}
{My consciousness is wavering as if I’m on a ship….}
???: Hirose-kun…
{I hear a familiar voice…}
???: Hirose-kun…
{This is…}
182
Nozomi: Hirose…
Ah.
You’re awake!
Kouichi: Uwaaaah!!
Se—Senpai?!
Nozomi: Thank goodness. I thought you wouldn’t wake up again today.
Kouichi: I—It’s night? I…
Nozomi: You what..?
Hirose-kun were you….
(TN- It’s untranslatable but Kouichi reflexed into using ‘Boku’ which is a generally more polite ‘I’ pronoun for males. He used it as a child, and in his grogginess used it again now. Nozomi noticed and thought it was strange.)
183
Nozomi: Bewitched by that old lady?
Kouichi: Ah!
That mirror!
Nozomi: I have no idea what dream you had, but I can’t believe she gave you something so treacherous!
Even after I told her to keep her hands off of you….!
Kouichi: A dream…
Yeah…it was a dream…
So yeah, I came here to meet you this morning Senpai but you weren’t in…
So…
….What’s with the mountain of trash?
Nozomi: Ah…well this is…
184
Nozomi: I just figured I’d do some spring cleaning around the secret base.
Kouichi: Oh?
Nozomi: Ah! Hirose-kun, I found this thing! Let’s play with it!
(Handwritten- Planetarium)
Kouichi: You say you ‘found’ it. But isn’t this your house?
(Handwritten- Plus I’m not entirely sure you’d be able to see anything with that.)
Nozomi: In any case I’m setting everything outside. If you see anything that interests you feel free to take it with you.
Kouichi: Where did Senpai even pick this stuff up from anyway….
185
Nozomi: H—hmm…
How does one use this anyway…?
Oh! Is it a projector?
(On shoes- Hirose Kouichi.)
Nozomi: So if I can get it set up then we should be able to see it light up.
186
Kouichi: Hey Senpai…
Nozomi: Hm?
187
Kouichi: Before I enrolled in Seishou High you were there for a half year right? What were you doing up until then?
Nozomi: Sleeping.
(TN- Seishou= Blue box. I know during the school festival arc I wrote out the TL, but this sounds better and thus what I will go with for now on.)
Kouichi: And before you went to sleep?
Nozomi: Hm? Hmmm….I wonder…
To be fairly honest I can’t quite remember…
Kouichi: I see…
Nozomi: Oh! That’s the Gemini!!
{Senpai has already forgotten that Orbelio has been destroyed…}
Kouichi: Did she over exhaust herself giving me her heart….? Maybe that’s why she erased all of her difficult memories….
Nozomi: But you know…
188
Nozomi: I have a feeling that something great happened to me before I went to sleep.
That someone said something that made me really happy…
Kouichi: You’re still happy despite not remembering the particulars?
Nozomi: Yup. It’s fine.
Although I don’t have an actual heart beating within my chest anymore…
In exchange that feeling still remains.
That is more than satisfactory for my heart….it’s what’s allowed me to live up until this day.
{Back then…}
189
{All I could do was watch as I was unable to save anyone.}
{If only I could be something for someone’s sake…}
Nozomi: Just kidding!
{Is what I often thought.}
Nozomi: Hirose-kun?
{So I had to do something to save…}
{The girl who was crying right before my eyes.}
Kouichi: Thank goodness…

Rico: Niih…
HITORIBOCCHI NO CHIKYUU SHINRYAKU 4………….END.
191
Kouichi: To be continued in volume 5!!

KUSOGAKI
(TN- Means Brat.)
???: I’m hungry!!
Gimmie some food!
Kouichi: Okay,I’m coming.
???: Tasty!!
Kouichi: I can add more flavor…
???: TASTYYYYYY!!
Hey! Don’t put peppers in this dummy!
Oh and wash my socks!
Kouichi: I—I…
Have no idea what was wrong with you Senpai!!
Friends!!
You must have had one twisted upbringing!!
Strong winds.
Ayla: Grandmother, your hat.
Grandma: Aah..
Thank you.
Ayla: I’m getting a haircut.
(Handwritten- I’ve decided.)
Kouichi: Eh? Aw, that’s such a waste!
193
Playing with Ice Cream.
{Three level ice cream.}
{5 level.}
{11 level.}
{12 level.}
(Handwritten- It’s going to fall I’m telling you!)
Kouichi: That sure looks fun…
It’s mid summer yet girls wearing sweaters over shirts are still really cute! Is what I think. Not that they’d wear that sorta thing.
Dog thing: I’m a dog lover so why am I into cats so much lately…
Thank you for your help each time, Arata Iri-chan!
