>Last Panel
Do not look, servants! Or do you want me to slice your eyeballs!?

W-we know! We get it!

pg 006 ============================================
>Panel 1
Kukuku

>Panel 2
Good day, everyone.

My codename is Water Boy

A knightmare that specializes in underwater operations.

>Panel 3
Then, me too...

I'm Renya and my special move is...

Aah, there's no need to...

>Last Panel
That was just because I felt like talking.

Because I'm more wonderful, // and charming that way, don't you think?

pg 007 ============================================
>Panel 2
My name is Alto Weinberg. As for my specialty...

I don't think I need to spell it out.

>last Panel
Such a wonderful surprise attack.

However...

pg 008 ============================================
>Panel 2
That was within my prediction.

>Panel 3
Hah.

>Panel 4
Guh!

>Last Panel
My name is....!

pg 009 ============================================
>Panel 1
You are NOT wonderful!

>Panel 4
Uwaah!

pg 010 ============================================
no trans

pg 011 ============================================
....They ran away...

Well, no matter.

pg 012 ============================================
no trans

pg 013 ============================================
>panel 2+3
There she is.

It's C.C.

>Last Panel
She appears to be unconscious. We will observe for a while before disconnecting the "Link"

pg 014 ============================================
no trans

pg 015 ============================================
>Panel 2
Phew, I can never get used to this "Link". So, how was it?

>Panel 3
Ah, right, conversation wasn't possible.

Hmmm, how should I deal with this, I wonder?

>Panel 4
A problem?

Indeed, I have secured the princess as well as C.C. ... // However....

>Last Panel
"However"?

pg 016 ============================================
>Panel 1
Did Mesh steal it?

No, there's no way he could know. Then, maybe it was abandoned somewhere? // No, I don't think that's possible...

>Panel 2
Are you looking for something?

>Panel 3
Yes, I am. But, it has nothing to do with you.

Because you are not wonderful...

>Last Panel
Can't you cut that out already? // Even I get hurt, you know?

pg 017 ============================================
>Panel 1
I praise you for being able to find me....

Naah, it was a pretty silly story, you know...

This ship belongs to Britannia, right? That's why we heard about the ship's location.

>Panel 2
Right, Master?

>Panel 3
To being with, we were going to use this ship to escape anyway,

More like by hijacking it, though. (handwritten)

but we didn't think you would massacre everyone.

>Panel 4+last
A pity, really.

The captain still owes me a favor...

pg 018 ============================================
>Panel 1
Quite the terrible thing I have done,

Sir Weinberg.

>Panel 2
There's no need to apologize.

Because I have decided to collect the debt from you.

>Panel 3
Now, now, please calm your killing intent.

>Last Panel
How about a toast first...

pg 019 ============================================
>Panel 4
It's as clear as day that you'll target the weakest one first!

R-right!

>Panel 5+last
....You...

That arm...?

pg 020 ============================================
>Panel 1
This?

This is "my justice" that will reap the life of someone like you.

>Panel 2
I see.

>Last Panel
That is wonderful.

pg 021 ============================================
>Panel 2
GWAAAH

pg 022 ============================================
Now I see.

You were one with dormant power.

pg 023 ============================================
>Panel 1
Did you obtain that power from C.C.?

>Panel 2
You have the qualification to be our comrade.

You have met that man, yes?

>Panel 3
Th...that...man....

WHO ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!?

pg 024 ============================================
>Panel 2
You already knew him, didn't you?

Now tell me me about "that".

>Panel 3
Th...The hell are you talking about?

>Panel 4
What did you hear from that man?

I said... who are you talking about...

>Last Panel
Don't you remember?

He is our hope.

pg 025 ============================================
>Panel 1+2
GUAAAH

Water Boy... He forced...

Did you find "that"?

I don't know!

>Panel 3
Hmph.

This ability to share only vision is quite useless.

>Last Panel
GRRK.

pg 026 ============================================
>Panel 1
That's not possible!

>Panel 2
If you had your power unlocked, then you must have met him!

>Panel 3+Last
Do you really know nothing? Then, you can forget about being wonderful!

You should know if you're one of us!

He is our hope, longing and aspiration. He is the man who will rewrite the world! Yes....

pg 027 ============================================
He is Dash-sama!

pg 028 ============================================
What

It's been quite some time but Zuellni hasn't returned yet.

Eh....

Please tell her if you see her.

Ah, (text at bubble edge) // If you're done over there, you can call it a day.

If something happened to her, I-

Senpai, please calm down!!

First of all, what's terrible is your condition!!

CSR 121 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I have already checked all the places where Zuellni might go to, but....

>Panel 2
I suppose I should go around one more time....?

Uu----mu (Nina Text)

Rather, just what on earth happened to you?

Let's stop the bleeding first ,okay? (Layfon's Text)

>Panel 3
Aah.... This? // When I was searching outside just earlier, I passed through a cat gathering spot and...... you see...

Captain VS Pussy Cats!! (VS Text)

Why didn't you take another route? (Layfon Thought)

>Panel 4
However, when I succeeded passing through that spot, the kid of the giant chicken I defeated last time stood in my way....

I wonder if it escaped from the agriculture dept. (Text)

OOOOOOOHH (Top Bold Text)

Captain VS Giant Chicken Jr.!! (VS Text)

The vengeance of the chicken!? (Text)

It was such a sorrowful battle....

>Last Panel
The victory of that battle was but a fleeting one------ This time, I came across upon a hang-out of some delinquent gang.....

UOOOH! (Top Bold Text)

Captain VS Delinquent Group!! (VS Text)

WE TALKED TO EACH OTHER THROUGH OUR FISTS!!

You had lost sight of your original objective by then, right?

UOOOH----
Captaaaaain! (Text)

Well, when you try talking to them they were actually good men, you see?

....Mu....? // Now that I think about it, I don't think we knew each other, but they were calling me "captain" for some reason....?

I....I think they meant something different from a platoon captain...!!

>Panel 2
Okay, // I will go search outside one more time.

Eh?

You are done for the day right? // Good work.

>Panel 3
A-are you going to search again NOW?

Yes, that's right?

>Panel 4 (NOTE: Zuellni is also written as "The heart of the city" or "the city's consciousness" )
Well, what's happening to Zuellni is definitely a serious matter, but.... // It's already so late, so I think we should leave the searching to the Student Council and the City Police.

You should take a good rest just in case something serious does happen, senpai.

CSR 123 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
.... // I suppose so....

That's right, // we have morning training too...

>Panel 2
Then.... Layfon, could you please send the message to the police on your way home?

Eh?

>Panel 3
I will search for Zuellni.

>Panel 5
Senpai....

If you look at it from the beginning, it might seem like pointless efforts.... // However, if I gave up here and it turned out something serious did happen, // I will surely blame myself, thinking why I stopped searching for her at that time.

>Last Panel
I just do not want to have any regret.

CSR 124 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
This person-----

>Panel 3
She's always.... how can she always be so straightforward and persevering....?

Even though it's not rare that all this hardwork could turn out to be just another fruitless effort...

>Panel 4
To do what you think is right----

>Panel 5
Is she not afraid of being denied by everyone and everything....?

>Panel 6
Hm?

>Panel 7+Last
Ah.

Nothing....

She must be really down right now----

Ah, um---- sen.....

this flower garden... // I'm sure I would never know of it even until I graduated.

Gyaaaaa

Wh-wha // WHAT!? // What are you doing?

Making sandwiches, as you can see.

You sure you're not trying to destroy something!?

>Panel 3
At first, I was trying to cut the tomato.... but it didn't go well, you see.

Hmph!! (small shout bubble)

Thinking I didn't put enough instantaneous force to it, I swung down the kitchen knife with all my strength, and then------

>Panel 4
I ended up cutting not just the tomato, but also the countertop....

I released my external kei on reflex. (Text)

This is from just one tomato......!!?

>Last Panel
Guess someone's gonna get killed when the dorm leader has returned.... // I'll have to appeal with all my might that I'm not involved in this.

You cut tomatoes- (Text)

This is quite sudden, why cooking....? // Even though you've never done this before...

I see!! (Text)

csr 106 ------------------------------------------------------------------

U-umu.... // I am thinking I should conduct training camp for the platoon eventually, // and Layfon is the only one who knows how to cook.

Oh. (Nina Text)

There are more tomatoes in the fridge. (Felli Text)

Hn----nn....

Felli, please cut the cucumber. (Text)

Nina, she's- // always worrying that things aren't going so well with her platoon members.

The training camp is a pretext to interact with them, right?

Hm---mm. (Text)

Uwaaaaa! // Nina! Your blood!

The bleeding's already stopped.

Haha, it's just a mere cut. (Text)

Just how durable are you!?

>Panel 3
Listen here, Felli-san. // Even without cutting it diagonally,

Viewed from above (Text)

you can easily cut it like this, you know?

>Panel 5
AAAH~~~~SHE'S ON THE SAME LEVEL AS NINA~~~~!!

>Last Panel
AH! // Now I get it!!

This girl's real aim of coming here is to observe her enemy activities....!! // She's here to gauge Nina's, her enemy's, ability so she won't get outwitted....!!

>Panel 1
If that's the case, I guess their relationship is bad after all....?

But, I'm sorry, Nina. I'm busy worrying about the kitchen more than you.... (Loud Thought Bubble)

Lettuce, lettuce. (Nina Text)

I can see these two as the filth monsters of kitchen.

>Panel 2
Ah, Nina.

You can tear off lettuce without using a knife.

Is that so?

>Panel 3
But before that, you need to remove the center part wi-

>Panel 3
YOU HAVE TO USE THE KNIFE FOR THAT!!

What!?(text on bubble edge) // B-BUT, YOU SAID I DON'T NEED A KNIFE FOR THIS!!

Am I wrong?! (Nina Text)

Don't just simply pull it out!! (Leu Text)

YOU'VE GOT TO THINK FIRST WHETHER WHAT YOU'RE DOING IS POSSIBLE WITH GRIP STRENGTH OF A NORMAL GIRL!!

>Last Panel
Furthermore, now that I have pulled out the leaf part, they seem to shrink considerably.

THAT'S WHY I TOLD YOU TO WATCH YOUR GRIP STRENGTH!!
You squeezed out all the water in the leaves!! (Shout Text on Bubble Edge)

Nina, everything needs balance, you know.

That's just a tower of lettuce! // How are you going to eat that!?

Muu, indeed.... this is rather hard to eat.

I thought it'd be fresh and juicy this way.... (Nina Text)

>Last Panel
Then, it is perfect this way, is it not?

YOU SQUEEZED OUT ALL THE WATER AGAIN, THOUGH.

Thank you // for the food.

>Panel 4
Fufu, // how does your own cooking taste like?

I can't taste the tomatoes or the cucumber.

Why don't we add some dressings to it....?

Aah-------.... // Looks like we're out of mayonnaise and cheese.

I don't think they're open at this time.

Ah, right.

Mayonnaise, huh...

>Panel 3
Leu, // the school is already open at this time right?

Eh? Aah... I guess so....

....Wait.

>Panel 4
Are you planning to buy them at school!? The school isn't exactly near from here, you know? It's faster if we just wait for the store to-----

You are wrong, Leu.

Felli!! // Secure the food in the refrigerator at once!!

Please do it yourself. (Felli Text)

Aah! Nina! Do you have your wallet with you!? (Leu Bold Text)

After that, you are to standby here!! // In case I have not returned within 2 hours, you may make your own judgment to return home!!

No, I'm going home NOW. (Felli Small Bubble)

Felli-san, after this....

I'm going home.

>Panel 4
But, we should put the sandwiches into the fridge.

Oh, she's listening to Nina after all.

>Panel 6
Seriously.... // That Nina, I guess she's also like that in front of her platoon members.

Having such a captain, // it must be hard on you.

....I suppose so.

But, // I'm already used to all the annoyance she puts us through.

You're pretty late~~~

Just what have you....

>Last Panel
Y-you see, all of a sudden, a mutated giant chicken went berserk. They were troubled by it, so I defeated the chicken. // And then, they gave me the eggs and the actual chicken itself!!

No matter how tired she is, she would swing shinai without fail, so I heard.

In her time-off, all she does is kendo, kendo, kendo, and kendo.

>Last Panel
-----Despite all that, she became more cheerful and full of spirit.

>Panel 1
I'll revise what I said before, Kame.

>Panel 2
Follow that girl with all your might.

Don't let yourself get shaken off.

>Panel 3
I don't need you to tell me that.

BB pg 159 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Not just high school girls, college girls..., office ladies..., even housewives...

Really, all kinds of people have gathered here.

Many people who still had something to do in their youth took the application.

>panel 2
I'm so glad I have a place such as this.

We used the power of television so we can create this place.

>panel 4
In the team competition, there's only Sueno-san's Kokujou High that can stand against us the Kendo Beauties, huh?

Fufufu (small text)

>panel 5
Not quite,

you're forgetting one more team.

Did Tama-chan put on a make-up?

I did it for her.

Awawa...awawa.

I can't go on, I wanna go home....

What's wrong, Saya?

>Last Panel
I knew it by watching the TV broadcast from the other day...

My... my face looked so stupid...

Even though everyone else looked so cool, cute and radiant.....

my face alone looked stupid

>Panel 2
Aah... when I think that my stupid face will be shown on TV again...

I can't go on living...!!

>Panel 3
Saya, you look cool, cute, and radiant when you're wearing that stupid face!!

I love Saya's stupid face the most!

Honestly, because we were late, the only place left open is this corner.

Tohoo~on (Text near R Shout)

No complaining! Practice, practice!!

>Panel 4
Either way, we're only gonna be the cheering team.

We've already resigned to fate.

Oi, Yuuji, Dan.

You guys have an important duty today.

I'll be leaving this to you!

This is unexpected.

>Panel 2
Worthy opponents!!

>Last Panel
In charge of sound effect.

BB pg 169 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Sakaki-san.

Could you switch the taishou position with me?

>Panel 3
I would like you to fight against Tama-chan.

You have to fight Tama-chan, no matter what.

>Panel 4
I have been visiting Tama-chan's dojo to practice together with her for this past several months.

There, I have come to understand very well about what Tama-chan's kendo is.

>Panel 5
For you to especially visit her dojo...

I see.

>Panel 6
It just shows how outstanding she is.

----That's how it is, isn't it?

Aaaaah!!

>Panel 3
Kyah!!

>Panel 4
Yamada-san,

will you return to the kendo world?

>Panel 5
There's a plan to return as a performer, but...

I don't think I'll be able to participate in the high school tournament.

>Panel 6
....Is that so...

You can no longer...

participate in either the interhigh or the Gyokuryuuki...

>Panel 7
Could it be that-

you were training Tama-chan so that she could fight against me? Or is it just me thinking too much?

BB pg 172 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Daaah!!

>panel 2
Ukh...

>Panel 3
Gooo, Satorin!

Sacchin!

Awesome, you're pushing back the opponent!!

What are you doing, Nakamura-san!? Get steady!

>Panel 1
Azuma Satori...

>panel 2
Was she always this strong...?

>Panel 3
So close, just a little more!

>Panel 4
In this club...

I thought I'm the most persistent one to become stronger... and to win the matches, but...

>Panel 5
Kendo is until junior high school only!

I study hard in high school so that I can enter a college!!

I don't have the slightest regret!!

>Last Panel
Overdoing things like that,

she's such an idiot, really.

BB pg 174 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Go for it, Satoriii!!

Satori for life (Satori's mom's vest/clothes)

Video (text on the video camera)

Satori-chan!

>Panel 3
Since the recording event, I've been studying the video continuously.

Studying everyone's moves.

>Panel 4
Strange, isn't it?

Whenever I'm studying the school subjects, I just can't learn anything at all and I will get sleepy quickly.

But when it comes to Kendo, I can learn anything no matter how much.

>Last Panel
Gugyaaaah!!!!!

BB pg 175 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
Zesshaaaaa!!

>Panel 3
(NOTE/RANT: suriage-men, a deflection that's followed by men. The way I, who know NO kendo, understand, it's basically
street fighter 3's parry => counter with Shoryuken.)

It's the suriage-men!

Watch out!!

>Panel 4
It's okay.

I've studied the move over and over again!!

>Panel 5
Nice, Mirukaaa!!

Alriiiiight!!

>Panel 2
No way.....

She got Nakamura-san.

>Panel 3 (NOTE: Yep, it's "Satorim", not a typo.)
She threw in a kote, a men and a dou in an instant!

Satorim, you're awesome!!

>Panel 4
The kote and the men were blocked, but the speed of Azuma's dou excelled her opponent.

Here comes the result from the special training!!

Drum (text on the drum)

>Panel 5
Azuma's special move, she trained her wrists thoroughly in order to strengthen her dou.

Right now, the speed of her wrist reversal is even faster than Tama-chan's.

This is because you were fooling around and falling for a guy!

Haha... (Lighter Text)

My reputation is falling as well........

>Panel 2
But, that girl will get stronger.

Even more so.

I wonder if she would become my successor... as one of the Kendo Beauties.

Miyamiyaaa!

Strike her hard!!

>Panel 5

Eeeen!

Men, hit!

>Panel 4
Hyooooo (lighter text)

Heck yeaaaaah!!

>Panel 5
In these several months,

the one who grew stronger the most is the beginner Miyamiya.

>Panel 6
Anyway, we did so many practice matches so that these girls can accumulate real fight experience.

The Muroe High has become famous because of the TV broadcast. Thanks to that, we had no shortage of opponents.

>Last Panel
The matches,

the fights, the one who enjoyed them the most was Miyamiya.

BB pg 181 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Teeee!!

Kote, hit!

Alright, good job, Ryoko!

Hmmm, that was a good one.

Ever since that event, I've been learning kendo at my uncle's place.

Hmph.

Try not to weep.

Miyamiya, go for it!!

Aaa (Text)

You can win!

Waa (Text)

Don't rush it!

Nyaa!

>Panel 8
That Miya, she used to be someone who would get mad just because she loses a point.

But, having fought many matches, she has become quite calm now, I see.

>Last Panel
You're wrong, sensei.

This is the real Miyamiya!

BB pg 182 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
A strong will!

That is the strength of Miyamiya!!!

>Panel 2
Time is running out!

One more point!!

>Panel 3
Haa

Haa

>Panel 5
The more cornered she gets,

and as the time runs out,

>Panel 7
the more Miyamiya can bring out strength beyond her true ability.

BB pg 183 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Tee!!!

>Panel 2 (NOTE: De-gote or Debana Kote, intercept and then kote. In our(?) term, it's like a newtype went "kyupiiin!" and then "Soko kaaa!" *slash with a beam saber*)

>Panel 4
Indeed.

They look like they're really having fun.

>Panel 5
At first...

I just wanted to let Tama-chan fight you.

>panel 6
To train Tama-chan,

I thought that's one thing I could do for Tama-chan, you... and the world of high school kendo.

>Panel 7
I thought-

that is the one way I could thank Tama-chan who have opened my eyes.

>Last Panel
But,

I was wrong.

BB pg 185 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The kendo that Tama-chan seeks is different from us.

lies in that club.

My head is spinning...

Ishizuka-san, hang in there!

What...

what is this feeling?

>panel 2
My feeling is telling me,

not to close in suddenly.

>Panel 3
Saya has,

>Panel 4
because of her extreme nervousness and hunger, both her body and mind----,

entered the state of awakening.

>Panel 5
Her concentration raised to its utmost limit, and her sense sharpened--- It is as if she has turned into a wild beast.

>Last Panel
No.

BB pg 195 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
The feeling of hesitation changed.

It turns into something really sharp, clear and cold.

>Panel 2
(NOTE/RANT: Can be either "trance" or "trans", but it was "trans-Kirino", so...
Now, go play Gundam 00 fight theme. Trans Am! Hatsudou!)

My own limit that I felt,

I felt it the most clearly-

when Sakaki-san beat me at that time.

I redid and found my kendo anew.

And then, I climbed up to the Best 8.

I found it,

the new style.

Aaah.

I totally have no idea what happened, but it looks like everything went well.

But you know.

Hm?

you're going to leave, right?

Leaving this school.

....That's Kirino for you.

I can-

see through anything.

I have no more reason-

to stay in this school, in the club.

>Panel 5
There's no more things a shallow guy like me can teach you, the things to teach have been long since exhausted.

Heck, from the beginning, all I did was being helped by you guys.

For the sake of you all,

I think it'd be better if I'm not here next year.

>Panel 7
Hmmmm...

>Panel 8
There are so many things I want to say, but...

you won't hear aaaanything from me.

Is that so? Thanks.

>Last Panel
Anyway,

so many things happened this year-

that it felt like it's been years.

From here, I'd like to take a short rest... and then slowly start over from zero to find myself.

The very heart of the Muroe High kendo club-

is Tama-chan.

>Panel 2
Sakaki-san,

she possesses a different strength from you.

>Panel 3
It is one that is different from the strength to defeat opponents---

>Panel 4
For comparison,

her strength is one that draws people around her to become stronger.

>Panel 5
The power to convey.

In other words,

>panel 6
she just might have reached-

one of the checkpoints in kendo.

>Last Panel
Sakaki-san----, you shouldn't limit yourself to just having one strength.

Every swing from Tama-chan-

>Panel 3
Her swings are filled with her father's feelings, her mother's feelings,

>Panel 4
the feelings from everyone in the club,

and then my own feelings.

>Panel 5
That is to say that-

I'm happy I could take part in one of her swings.

>Last Panel
I'm happy that I could, even if it's just a little..., be of assistance for Tama-chan,

so that she could find her own one swing that is filled with feelings.

pure happiness.

Afterwords

By finding their own kendo, the girls take their first step towards adulthood. And this is the end to the story of Kojiro
who guided and watched over them. The epilogue is just, the span between spring and summer, 4 months away from
the main story. To make Tamaki and the others to stand at the starting line----- that is the goal of this work. I think
everything landed without a hitch as scheduled. It was quite a long first step forward, but I really thank you everyone for
watching over their growth until the end.

About how this work would turn out at first, I heard that the readers of Square Enix don't receive sports manga well.
So, I tried to meet their expectation and have been contemplating about it for some time. When I said to the Editor about
making the manga about girls kendo, the Editor went, "Seriously?" But then, the editor was the one who said that whatever
works and gave it a go, so I just went with the idea.

To begin with, the readers have no interest in sports genre. We can even assume that they hate it. So, I've been thinking
on how to make such readers to read the manga. Actually, when I asked the people who hate sports genre, I got, "It's just a club,
it's just sports, why would you give all your youth to it? Getting injured, getting so frustrated that you cry, I don't understand
why you would want to work so hard for it." That kind of answer. And that is where I realized that the [kendo] theme fits them
perfectly. While kendo is about getting stronger and that sort of thing, the main objective of kendo is to polish oneself, to train
one's mind. In other words, even without winning and advancing in the hot-blooded matches like in typical sports genre, I thought
I can make stories about characters' growth no matter how many.

This work with girls as the protagonists was decided from the so-called scheme that says that hakama figures are attractive and
that the smell of sweat is quite relaxing. It's not like they will aim for the national tournament. If they lost, they will, of course, feel
frustrated and cry. But ultimately, it won't always be refreshing, it's just a typically easy-going high school girl club activity. Even
when I draw from an adult male reader's point of view, the high school boys are completely ostracized. And the last is a fabulous
story about stepping into the fabulous TV world, and fabulously fighting against fabulous performers. I tried not to fill the pages
with description about practices and matches too much. The description about the tournament that is standard to the sports genre
was made so that it can be read as easily as possible. Also, instead of the main characters, the serious and hot-blooded matches
are carried out by the third party. The main characters became bystanders instead. Anyway, I tried my best so the readers can
relax and enjoy the reading. Even if it's not something that will make you laugh out loud, I have included a generous amount of
comedy elements that will make you smile. Without trying to display the story's originality, I vowed to draw a standard youth sports
story that can be found in everyday life.

When I just started, I was so totally into it that I threw in so much random story development that wasn't in the original plan. It has
always been like that from volume 3 up to volume 9 or so. When doing the story for the TV, the story came to a close, so I had to
postpone things. I also did the fifth girl Azuma that wasn't included in the submitted plan. During the Seimei High arc, there wasn't
any development whatsoever. Just how did I summarize things by moving the characters as I please? I was also experimenting
with a dangerous thing that is called "to enjoy myself". And about Hayashi-sensei, that was totally just my preference. I have grown
way too attached to the Muroe High's charas that I stretched out the story. However, the landing point has been decided, so I was
able to feel at ease and do whatever I want.

And then, the last battle of Ura-Ume. Just for this match, I have been talking right from the beginning with the editor to draw the
match for a whole book, and I got the permission to do whatever I want. The mood of the work is different from how it was
originally. There might be many readers who aren't quite satisfied with it, but this is the last one, so please let it pass. By the way,
Bamboo B that is currently serialized in Shonen Gangan is "Aim for the National Tournament" sports story. Bamboo B is to
complement things like fierce fight between boys or the death match of national level that couldn't be included here in Bamboo
Blade, so please check it out. Right now, there are only 4 full volumes out though.

And thus the temporary end of the story, but the springtime of life has just begun for Tamaki and the others.

Now, to talk about what will happen to Kojiro from here on, he'll be in charge to be an advisor in another high school's kendo club
starting next year. There was an invitation for him from nearby school that has a problem with its girls kendo club, you see?
So, there was someone related to the school who saw Kojiro in TV, and Kojiro accepted the offer. And then, Kojiro will surely
face various problem in that club and grow even further. Kojiro and his new club might compete against the Muroe High in
practice match or tournament. This time, there might even be a story about his love life, please look forward to it.
--------------------I won't draw it though. I shall leave the rest to your imagination.

Lastly, without a doubt, this one whole year will influence these people's life from now on. And the one
who started all this, somehow or the other, was Kojiro. And then, to every reader who read until the end,
I'll be happy if you can somehow get a bit of good influence from it.

Translation: Bamboo Blade 102

Tue, 07 Feb 2012 06:28:55 +0000

For CXC Scans only

~NOTE ahoy~
I suggest we should add the note either at the beginning or at the end of the book or just make a text note for it.

Num 1:
Gyokuryuuki (玉竜旗) is apparently an all Japan high school kendo tournament

Num 2:
shinai --> bamboo sword/ BAMBOO BLADE / bamboo stick/ fencing stick

Num 3:
jodan -> overhead stance/position.
migi-morote-jodan literally translates to --> right - both hands - overhead stance
hidari-morote-jodan literally translates to --> left - both hands - overhead stance

Goodness, anyone familiar with kendo terms should just go ahead and correct me.

Num 4:
chudan --> middle stance/position

Num 5:
Dunno if it's true, but it seems to me that kendoka around the world(?) generally use the
Japanese terms for the team positions, so I left them as they are. I'm not a kendoka here, so
I won't be too surprised if I'm wrong.

AND SO, here they are:

senpou (previously "leadoff / vanguard")
jihou (previously "2nd / 2nd vanguard")
chuuken (previously "3rd / center")
fukushou (previously "4th / second in command")
taishou (previously "anchor / general")

Num 6:
Kendoka --> Kendo practitioner

And for those who are interested in more kendo terms:

Change into an adult...

by themselves.

Until that time comes,

I...to these kids...

What do I want to convey to these kids?

I have never been in charge of something until now.

These kids... are the only ones I could call as my students.

Many days have passed since the Banish Academy recording.
Narration (Azuma's Paper)

Okay,

form a line.

>Panel 2
The eventful days were over, and the club returned to its usual activity.

>Panel 3
We are spending our enjoyable summer break.

Gahaha (Text)

Kuwa (Shirt Text)

We look forward to the broadcast of the Banish Academy next month.

>Panel 4
A little about the aftermath of the match between Erina-chan and Sakaki-san----

>Panel 5
In the end, the training camp schedule had to be changed drastically.

>Panel 6
The two who passed out had to keep their health in mind, so they had to hold back in the 2nd day match.

We can no longer follow the schedule.

>Last Panel
As for the TV staffs, they are already used to schedule changes.

So, they started the recording without delay.

BB pg 010 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
And then, this part is on schedule, but-

Sueno Shouko-san went home without participating on the 2nd day of the training camp.

>Panel 2
As the Gyokuryuuki tournament is drawing near, she can't afford to neglect the club anymore than this.

I see,

Sakaki-san and Yamada-san can't participate in the tournament.

>Panel 3
...What a pity.

I wanted to fight both of you here.

>Panel 4
I'm truly sorry, I kept messing up the schedule...

No, it was a good match.

>Panel 5
I'm already in the 3rd year.

I can't fight in the high school level anymore.

>Panel 6
Next time,

let us meet in the All Japan Championship.

BB pg 011 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 3
The one thing that I regretted-

was that Sueno-san went home without knowing Tama-chan.

>Panel 4
I suppose it was still too early for Tama-chan to fight those girls.

Oryo~

...Nah.

>Panel 5
It's just a matter of time...

right...?

>Panel 6
By the way, in today's recording---

>Last Panel (RANT: Fabulous Max~)
Miyazaki-san had a big role.

From my point of view, I could see she had something like an aura which is comparable to Erina-chan's and Ryoko-chan's.

BB pg 012 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Hohohohohoho (Black Text above)

You wouldn't think that she's actually a novice by looking at her facial expression, the way she read the situation, and her skill with words. Even the TV staffs were deeply impressed by her.

Somehow, it seemed to me that Ryoko-chan was a little mad and became competitive because of that.

>Panel 2 (RANT: I'm tempted to change "greatness" to "fabulousness". Well, this is just a rant, so you can ignore it.)
I expect no less from her...

Haaaa~

Even to us, it was truly a day where we found Miyazaki-san's greatness anew.

>Panel 3
But as expected, the one who stood out the most was-

Tama-chan.

>Last Panel
In the equal practice with the Kendo Beauties, equal matches between them were unfolding quite literally.

Her matches drew everyone's attention, just like her match against Erina-chan the day before.

Tama-chan (me) ko O - X ko Miruka-san (Text)
Tama-chan ko X - O (me) me Touko-san (Text)

But I... had a feeling that Tama-chan could go even further,

since I somehow felt that Tama-chan didn't really put herself into it, even less so than usual...

BB pg 013 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
After the match she had with Erina-chan... no,

after the match between Erina-chan and Sakaki-san... it appeared to me that Tama-chan was different than her usual self.

>Panel 2
Now that I think about it...

>Panel 3
Sakaki-san's father had this strange look on him when he saw Tama-chan...

...I wonder if something happened.

>Panel 4
....Um, // Azuma-san.

>Panel 5
There's something I'd like to ask...

>Panel 6
...What is it, Tama-chan?

Exit (text on the door)

We'll be going first~~

>Last Panel
Azuma-san...

why are you practising kendo?

BB pg 014 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 3
To think that Tama-chan-

>Panel 4
would ask this question...

>Panel 5
As I thought, she's worried about something-

after witnessing that match...

>Panel 8
At first, I started practising kendo because Grandpa recommended me.

I did my best because I wanted to make Grandpa happy. After all, Grandpa was the one who really enjoys watching me getting better in Kendo.

>Panel 9
I thought of stopping practising kendo after middle school, but... I thought it was for the best that I followed everyone's persuasion and restarted practising kendo.

"Kendo will polish the human we call Azuma Satori"... I understood that it was for the best.

>Last Panel
As for right now...

BB pg 015 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
My goals are to get even stronger and to participate in the national tournament.

I'm putting all my effort in order to achieve those.

>Panel 3
However...

>Panel 6
My number one goal is---

>Panel 8
The first thing we need to do today is the Banish Academy recording.

Make sure you apologize for what you did the other day.

...Yes.

>Last Panel
...I gave hard time to Kamesaki-san as well...

I'm really sorry...

BB pg 016 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
Huh?

>Panel 3
Why are you stopping, Kamesaki-san?

........Erina-chan.

>Panel 4
At that time, it must have been because you had something you really need to do. Looking from the result, the recording came out interesting, so we can't blame you for that.

...But,

>Panel 5
Why did you not tell me?

>Panel 7
It's fine not telling the others.

It's fine not telling your family, friends, boyfriend,

the other staffs, and even costars.

But, I am your manager, Erina-chan.

>Panel 8
I am-

your partner.

>Panel 9
You're not supposed to do that to me!!

>Last Panel
I-

I'm sorry...

BB pg 017 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

If it isn't Kamesaki, // are you still Erina-chan's manager?

Well yeah.

>Panel 5
Looks like I'll become her manager officially.

Well, I look forward to working with you, Kuroiwa.

>Panel 6
By the way,

Ryoko-chan seems to get along with our Erina-chan recently.

>Panel 7
Where did you buy that hat?

It's from fashion center Shimomura.

It's cute~

>Panel 8
Do you wanna go shopping with me next time?

I found a good store just recently.

Waaai~ I'll go!

BB pg 022 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I believe Ryoko-chan used to be hostile towards Erina-chan...?

Do I really have to explain, Kame?

>Panel 2
Before, Ryoko-chan thought of Erina-chan as just a kid who never works hard.

But after the shooting for the Banish Academy, she saw Erina-chan in a new light.

>Panel 3
Ryoko always respects anyone who works hard to improve themselves, no matter in what field they are.

>panel 4
Ryoko now acknowledges Erina-chan, // and sees her as an arch-rival.

She finally achieved to become one I wanted her to be.

>Panel 5
If you look down on someone, you won't be able to see their good points. // You won't learn anything from them in the end.

As Ryoko have realized how Sawamiya Erina has been living her life until now, she came to respect her.

>Last Panel
She was charmed by Erina basically.

BB pg 023 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>panel 1
I'm grateful.

From now on, Ryoko will use Sawamiya Erina as a stepping stone to grow even further.

>Panel 4
See you, sensei!

See you!

What is Kojiro-sensei doing with all that money!?

>Panel 3 (NOTE: boke-tsukkomi in manzai comedy thingy, go google it!)
Don't tell me, you finally... the school's money.

I don't need a boke here.

>Panel 4
Please excuse me.

Hoop(text)

So, why do sensei have this much money?

>Panel 5
I'm thinking of using this money to take you guys to Kyushu.

To observe the Gyokuryuuki... or something.

>Panel 6
Waaah! Gyokuryuuki!! That sounds good, sensei!!

Let's go! Let's go! With everyone!

Hmmm, but you know...

>Panel 7
Just this amount of money won't be able to cover for travelling and lodging expenses.

Gotta be responsible for everyone of you..., right?

>Last Panel
I will say this only to you.

This is for Tama-chan.

BB pg 025 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
Even if I use more money to bring you guys to the Gyokuryuuki---

...Well, I'm sure everyone could learn something from it, but- // it is still too early for you guys after all.

>Panel 3
All I could think about-

is Tama-chan.

>Panel 4
Can you go along with me for Tama-chan's sake?

>Panel 5
There's no need to ask me-

or everybody else.

>Panel 6
...Thank you.

I knew you would say that...

Sensei is being too reserved.

>Panel 7
I just wanted to make sure.

>Last Panel
Anyway, it's not exactly meaningless if we go there.

BB pg 026 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Because eventually,

we will come out in the tournament ourselves!!

Yesterday,

Tama asked me this.

>Panel 4
Sensei,

why are you practicing kendo?

>Panel 5
Me, too.

She also asked Saya the same thing.

Here. (Text)

>panel 6
Yeah. (Text)

What was your answer?

>Panel 7
Miyazaki-san,

>Last Panel
why-

are you practicing kendo?

BB pg 031 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Hmmm...

>Panel 2
I started just to accompany Dan-kun, so...

it's not like I had any interest in it.

>Panel 3
When I started doing it,

I understood why I'm doing Kendo.

>Panel 4
I have an offensive personality after all, so I enjoy hitting my opponent.

So, I thought to myself, "Kendo sure is fun."

>Panel 6
But, you know.

When I realized that Kendo doesn't stop there, I enjoyed doing it even more.

>Panel 7
I-

can't help but wanting myself to become stronger.

>Last Panel
Just how strong I can get?

I'm doing my best in order to know that.

BB pg 032 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Miyazaki-san... wants to get stronger... through kendo...

Yep.

Women have to be strong.

>Panel 2
...But actually,

my main goal is-----

>Panel 5
Then, I'll pass the message to everyone by mail.

Yeah, I'm counting on you.

I'll tell them the detail tomorrow.

>Panel 6
The day after tomorrow,

the Muroe kendo club will go to Kyushu!

>Last Panel
The school will start tomorrow, right?

You should sleep early today.

Okaaay.

BB pg 033 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Toraji, wait for a bit.

>Panel 2
Here, take this.

What's that?

>Panel 3
What's with this amount of money?

>Panel 4
Is that so? // So you can't take so much money out of the blue for no reason, huh?

Theeen---

No, I AM taking this, but-

What's this for?

>Panel 5
Your New Year's gift deposit has matured so I withdrew it.

Then, this IS my money!

Munny~~ (on the envelope)

>panel 6
Even if I gave it to you, you'll just spend it away on something useless after all!

Hahhahhah! (Text)

So I'm untrustworthy, huh...

It's spot on, though.

>Panel 7
Well, you're already an adult now.

And you'll turn 26 soon, right?

I'm sure you know how to spend money now.

Take it.

Yeah.

>Panel 6
Do you know mother!?

>Panel 8
......I thought so...

I thought you just had to be when I saw your kendo----

>Last Panel
I am Ura's father, I came from Kyushu.

I was in the same school as Tsubaki-san!

Really, what a coincidence!

Hahaha (Leftmost Text)

BB pg 036 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Right, right! Tsubaki-san was married at Kanagawa.

I knew that because I saw her on TV by chance.

>Panel 2
Is Tsubaki-san doing well?

She doesn't seem to be here though.....

>Panel 3
Mother...

passed away when I was a kid.

BB pg 037 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
I see...

So, that's how it is...

>Panel 3
Tsubaki-san... is no longer...

She was doing really well when I saw her on TV... so full of aspiration...

>Panel 4
What was mother talking about on TV?

>Panel 6
I'm really sorry.

I don't really remember the detail...

...I see.

>Panel 7
Excuse me.

That TV program, I may have took part in it.

>Panel 8
Ooe-san.

I overheard your story, so...

>Last Panel
Do you when it was broadcasted?

Sometime before I was born.

What channel?

Is it an evening broadcast?

BB pg 038 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Hmm...

That must be my TV program.

I see... the daughter of that person back then participated in my program now...

>Panel 2
Today was such an emotionally eventful day...

>Panel 3
Now that I think about it, there was a person who was talking about her child being born soon...

>Panel 4
Ah! That is Tsubaki-san!

I think she was talking about something like that---

>Panel 5
I- // is there any clip of that show?

Yes,

there is.

>Panel 6
When it's done...

May I see it?

>panel 7
Sure, I'll search for it.

Can I have your address?

Yes! Thank you very much!

Hop.

BB pg 042 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I've always been close to Tama-chan since forever after all.

It's only natural that we start doing kendo together.

>Panel 2
Also, practising kendo is fun, that's why I'm still doing it until now.

They're so simple, huh? Men.

>Panel 3
I see.

>Panel 4
Urya!

>Panel 6
I was the closest.

>Panel 7
Even closer than everybody in the club.

Even closer than Kojiro-sensei.

>Last Panel
That's why,

I know what are you thinking and hesitating about.

BB pg 043 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
I'm sorry,

I'm afraid I'm unable give you the answer you're looking for, Tama-chan.

>Panel 3
Besides, // that answer,

you just might be able to find it far in the future.

>Panel 4
You don't need to rush it.

>Panel 5
That's the reason why there are the club,

Well, that's because my bro always made me accompany him when I was in the elementary school...

You should join the basketball club.

Nah, join nao, you!

BB pg 048 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

BB pg 049 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Ah, Tama-chaaan!

Good morniiiiing!

>Panel 2
A good morning to you.

As polite as ever~, huh~♥ (Text)

Hey, hey, did you hear? Kojiro-sensei, you see,---

>Panel 3
Eh?

Why am I practising kendo....?

>panel 7
I can't say it...

I can't possibly tell her my true feelings when she asked me with such serious eyes...

>Last Panel
I joined the club by mistake. Just like that, I couldn't say anything about it so I just keep on doing it...

X Volume 8 extra chapter (Text)

Hmmm, that's because kendo is my calling!

Let's just deceive her with a vague answer.

BB pg 050 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
In jodan, there are hidari-morote-jodan where your left foot comes forward and migi-morote-jodan where you take stance with your right foot forward.

People generally use hidari-morote-jodan.

>Panel 2
The most important thing is readiness.

You focus on the opponent with "come at me whenever wherever" feeling.

Readiness......

>Panel 3
Jodan is an offensive stance that ignores defending.

It's useless if you're not confident about it.

There won't be distance for offense and defense, so the only thing you can do is to focus.

>panel 4
You can assume that you'll lose if you move even just one step.

>panel 5
So... you need a lot of courage.....

>Panel 6
I think you can do it, Saya.

The point of jodan is to intimidate your opponent with your height. // This is perfect for you because you are tall enough.

>Last Panel
Above all, a full offense style such as this-

perfectly suits reckless people like you.

BB pg 051 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 3
Jodan's moves are generally single-handed moves!

Grip the shinai tightly!

>Panel 4
Awesome, that was a powerful swing!

Oyo? She's become good at it already?

>Almost Last panel
What's wrong, Saya?

Are you tired?

>Last Panel
Sensei... I...

BB pg 052 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I'll stop-

doing joudan.

>Panel 4
Why?

>panel 5
Jodan is something for someone who has a strong foundation, right...?

So, I just thought it's still kinda too early for me...

Too early or not, you're already in your 2nd years. You don't have much time left.

>Panel 6
I want to continue practising kendo... even after I graduate...

Not just during this 3 years...

>Panel 7
I want to take it more slowly... and learn it properly...

Right now... I have got to practice the basics.

>Panel 8
Not to enjoy it just on impulse...

>Last Panel
I want to train my inner self properly.

BB pg 053 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Hm,

okay then.

>Panel 2
Then, let's do the same practice with everyone.

We'll slowly start from the basic with chudan.

>Panel 3
Tama-chan,

this is my real answer.

>Panel 4
It isn't just-

about liking or enjoying it.

I need kendo so I can become an adult.

I suppose that's the gist of it?

>Panel 5
But you know, Tama-chan.

>panel 6
As I thought, my number one aim is----

>Last Panel
Everyone, assemble!

BB pg 054 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
You've been told through mail yesterday, but we're going to Kyushu tomorrow.

To watch the Gyokuryuuki tournament.

>Panel 2
And so... we have a problem with the budget...

We can't possibly get any from the school, so the school is out of question.

And there's also a limit as to what I can help with the budget...

>Panel 3
I can cover the expenses for departing flight and lodging, but I'd like you guys to pay the returning flight by yourselves.

We understand that.

Don't be so reserved, Sensei! We'll pay ourselves if it's just that much.

>Panel 4
I'm sorry.

Let's together with everyone then.

>Panel 5
Let's scout the battlefield for the sake of next year!!

OOOOH!!

BB pg 055 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
This is my first time getting on an airplane...

Is it alright...? It won't fall?

Don't worry, I'm here with you.

>Panel 2
Have you gone to Kyushu, Tama-chan?

Nod Nod (thin text)

Yes, since both father and mother are originally from Kyushu.

BB pg 056 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Almost last panel (In case someone feel like editing that out ;p)
Waaaaah!

>Last Panel
Men, hit!

BB pg 057 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Sueno-san, she's amazing!

She's hecka strong!!

>Panel 2
I wonder which one is stronger, Erina-chan or Sakaki-san?

Hmmm, they're on the whole different level than us, so it's hard to tell.

>Panel 4
Men, hit!

>Panel 5
The Kokujou High will decide the match with Sueno as the chuuken.

>Panel 6
Both the fukushou and the taishou won't get any turn.

BB pg 058 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 4 (Same as pg 56)
Oooooh!

BB pg 059 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
The atmospshere-

is really tense.

>Panel 2
This tournament is different.

>Panel 3
Compared to my matches I've fought until now,

it is completely different.

>Panel 4
The thing that those people standing there have...

The thing that I don't have...

>Panel 5
is to fight with [conviction].

>Panel 6
Tama.

>panel 7
You need to know this. I brought you here to this Gyokuryuuki-

not to make you work hard so that you can stand on that stage.

>Last Panel
In any case, I want you to feel these many things.

Your dojo at home,

the school club,

the national tournament------...

BB pg 060 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I won't tell you what to do or what to be.

>Panel 3
You have to decide everything for yourself,

Tama.

>Panel 4
Kote, hit!

On that day, Sueno-san brought the team to victory without losing a single point.

>Last Panel
The next day, however...

BB pg 061 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Dooou!

Dou, hit!

>Panel 2
Sueno-san lost a point!

What happened to Sueno-san!?

>Panel 3
You know...

>Panel 4
Don't you think she's looking out of it?

>Panel 6
Haah

Haah

>Last Panel
Eeei!

Aaaah!!

BB pg 062 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Men!

Men, hit!

>Panel 2
Hyuuu!!

Awesome....!!

>Panel 3
So, this is the real jodan...

So cool.

I wanna do that too someday...

>Panel 4
Sueno-san is doing totally fine! She doesn't look out of it!

>Panel 5
I sure hope so....

Hm~ (Text)

>Last Panel
Final Match!!

Kokujou High vs Sanyou High (Text)

BB pg 063 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Haah

Haah

>panel 2
Don't push yourself too hard, Sueno-san!

You have a terrible fever....

>Panel 3
....No need to worry.

What are you talking about!?

>Panel 6
She beat two Sanyou High members in a row!

Aah...

>Panel 7
Sueno-san!

>Panel 8
Sueno-san, you don't have to come out there!

Just leave the rest to us!

>Panel 9
No,

please let me.

>Last Panel
Why!? Why can't you have faith in us!?

We're teammates, right!!? Sueno-san!

BB pg 064 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Of course I do have faith in you.

But, this is a problem of my own personal feeling.

>Panel 2
Please, let me do this...

I won't cause you trouble....

>Last Panel
Sueno Shouko.

Her movement is clearly dull!!

BB pg 065 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
She looked even more worn out than when I fought two matches.

She looks like she already past her physical limit.

>Panel 3
I should be able to close in with this speed!!

I got y-

>Panel 4
Meeeen!!!

BB pg 066 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
S-

So fast...!

>Panel 2
Huuf!

Huuf!

>Panel 3
Right,

I've already decided-

>Panel 4 (NOTE: this line here could mean a few things, they are "to make someone realize", "to take revenge on someone", "to teach someone a lesson" or "to get even with")
to get even with them.

>Panel 5
With the ones who are watching from over there,

>Last panel
Sakaki Ura.

BB pg 067 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
----And then,

>panel 2
Yamada Umeko.

>Last Panel
I will make you both regret-

for not standing here on this stage.

BB pg 068 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
No trans needed.

BB pg 069 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Last Panel
Kokujou High-

won the Gyokuryuuki for two consecutive years!!!

BB pg 070 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
If you were to fight her... will you be able to win, Ura?

>panel 3
No...

Right now,

I am not qualified to fight against Sueno-san.

>Panel 4
But,

soon...

without fail...

>Panel 5
It's regrettable that Sueno is graduating from high school.

>Panel 6
Yamada who quits the club also can't fight in the tournament.

Just when Ura finally returned to the kendo world, but whom could she call a rival now...?

BB pg 071 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 4+5
Clap clap clap clap

BB pg 072 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 4
Sueno-san, she's...

standing in a different position than us, isn't she...?

>Panel 5
That's a position she gained through devoting her entire youth as a girl.

But I don't think you girls will follow her footstep.

>Panel 6
Because I'm sure that girl and you,

each one of you has your own way on how to live your life fully.

>Panel 7
But-----

BB pg 073 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
How about you,

Tama?

>Panel 3
Tama-chan-

is different from us.

>Panel 4
Is it okay for you to keep on like this?

>Panel 5
Are you okay with going along with us?

>Panel 6
You have a great potential.

>Panel 7
Defeated for the first time by a girl from the same generation.

>Last Panel
Watched the national tournament with your own eyes.

BB pg 074 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
What do you desire,

Kawazoe Tamaki?

BB pg 075 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Tama-chaaan

Oooi (Text)

>Panel 2
Ah.

>Panel 3
Who?

They're Tama-chan's grandpa and grandma.

>Panel 4
From her mother's side, that is.

They live here. Since they heard that Tama-chan was coming, they're here to meet her.

>Panel 5
We'll wait at the store over there then.

>Panel 6 (NOTE/TRIVIA: Tama's grandparents speak with dialect. Not sure what dialect though, maybe Kyushu dialect?)
I see... so you're going home today, huh?

>Panel 7
You can just take your time and stay here.

Hahaha (Text)

I came here with everyone, so...

>Panel 8
I will come here with father next time.

...Is that so?

That's too bad~ (Text)

>Last Panel
In that case, why don't we eat some delicious foods for today?

Okay.

BB pg 076 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
Go ahead, help yourself!

>panel 3
Th-

thank you for the foods.

>Panel 4
Oh, this cream anmitsu looks really good.

Miss, we'd like to order this one!!

>Panel 5
Here, aaaah.

>Panel 6
Aaaaah.

>Panel 7
Is it delicious?

Y...yes, very.

>Panel 8
Here, try this one too.

>Panel 9
Eat this one too.

>Last Panel
This one too.

This too.

This too.

BB pg 077 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Mugumuni!! Mugamoka (SFX)

Tamaki thought to herself-

Id wasd delijious. (Text, typo on purpose)

that something terrible would happen had she been living here.

>Panel 2
Oh, yes,

we brought this for you.

>Last Panel
The shinai... that mother used.

BB pg 078 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
It's all worn out...

>Panel 2
Every single day, she swung that shinai from morning till evening, you see?

The shinai became so worn out in just one month.

>Panel 3
This is the only one left.

She used this one when she was still a student. It was left in the storeroom.

>Panel 6
Mother participated in the Gyokuryuuki, didn't she?

Yep.

She went pretty far too.

>Panel 7
Mother is also different from me...

She devoted her time as a student to kendo.

>Panel 8
Mother is...

>Last panel
I wonder what-

my mother wished me to be.

BB pg 079 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
If she was alive,

I----

>panel 3
Would you like to try to swing it?

>panel 4
Eh?

>panel 5
Tsubaki's shinai...

>Last Panel
Kyaaa♥ (grandma text)

KYAAAAH! (waitress text)

Miss customer! Please refrain from practice-swinging in the store!

BB pg 080 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 4
If Tama-chan were to live here in Kyushu,

>Panel 5
I wonder what will happen.

>Panel 6
Kyushu is the land of kendo after all!

Nyoho~on (text)

There are dojos all over the town and there are many kendoka here.

The environment is much better than getting into Muroe High club, so I'm sure she'll become unbelievably stronger.

>Panel 7
Naah...

I heard recently that there many kids who are losing interest in kendo, so yeah...

>Last Panel
And I also heard there many dojo closing down.

Furthermore, the school is having trouble with the lack of members.

BB pg 081 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Probably-

to Tama-chan,

>Panel 2
being together in this club with you guys-

is the best environment for her.

>Panel 3
If only-

I wasn't the club's coach.

>Panel 5
Byebye Kyushu.

We'll come again.

>Last Panels
Next year,

for sure-----...

BB pg 082 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 4
I'm home.

Ooh, welcome back, Tamaki.

>Panel 7
There's a guest for you, Tamaki.

>Last Panel
A guest for me....

at this time?

BB pg 083 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Who is it?

Mmm, if I'm not wrong.....

>Panel 6 (RANT: short hair FTW!)
Good evening.

Hair extension for TV use (text)

>Last Panel
Sawamiya-san!!?

That's right, Sawamiya-san.

BB pg 084 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Heee...

So, you watched the Gyokuryuuki.

>panel 2
I also watched it today.

Sueno-san... she sure was amazing.

>panel 3
Yes,

I was glad I could watch her directly.

>Panel 4
I also wanted to stand on that stage...

Sakaki-san was probably thinking the same thing.

>Panel 5
Next year, I'm sure Sakaki-san will come to that place. // ...But,

I won't be there. // Sueno-san who is graduating also won't be there.

>Panel 7
I'm worried about Sakaki-san.

>Panel 8
Worried-----...

>Last Panel
I'm worried-

if she would ended up getting isolated again...

BB pg 085 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
I'll say this bluntly.

Sakaki Ura, // that girl is-

>Panel 3
an idiot.

>Panel 4
(NOTE: sfx for shining/glittering "paaa" is the same as "my head went paaa/blank" thus unable to think like an IDIOT)
(RANT: Took me a while to understand like Tama-chan. Sorry, I can't invent a joke so I can only explain what's going on.
Well, I was looking at Ura's expression when I realized the joke, so I chuckled, kinda.)

Always brilliantly shining.

Paaaaaaaa (SFX)

>Last Panel
"Ah, she must meant about being a kendo idiot",

so Tamaki understood.

BB pg 086 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Ummm, Sawamiya-san.

About why you came here today...

>Panel 2
Yes, // Tama-chan

I came here to ask you a favor.

>Panel 3
It's about that idiot!

"Kendo idiot"..., yes?

>Panel 4
I understood this from the event the other day. If we took kendo from her, then she'll be left with nothing.

That's why, we have to take care of it so that that thing won't happen again.

>Panel 5
"That thing"...

>panel 6
So...

how does that relate to me...?

>Last Panel
As far as I know,

you are the only one.

BB pg 087 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
You have to keep her tied in to the world of kendo,

Tama-chan.

>Last Panel
Become her rival!

BB pg 088 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
Umm...

But,

Uh... (Text)

How could someone like me be Sakaki-san's rival....?

>Panel 3
Nuh-uh,

I can't think any other person than you.

>panel 4
It's not only about strength.

This is about the power that only you have it.

The power that fired me up.

Your kendo has that power.

>panel 6
Just being strong won't do.

Sakaki-san needs someone like you who possesses that kind of power.

>panel 7
Why...

>Last Panel
Why...

do Sawamiya-san worry about Sakaki-san so much....?

BB pg 089 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 3
That girl...

>panel 4
She is-

my...

>Panel 5
No.

>panel 6
Sakaki-san is someone who will shoulder the kendo world from now on.

A treasure.

>Panel 7
I'd like-

to let her devote herself.

For my part as well--- (Text)

BB pg 090 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Sawamiya-san, you.....

>Panel 3
You really love kendo.

Just as much as Sakaki-san.

>Panel 4
Practising with utmost effort, to the point of risking their life,

both of them have been devoting themselves so that they won't lose to each other, so that they can surpass each other.

>Panel 5
I am....

>Panel 6
Compared to Sawamiya-san,

and Sakaki-san, I........

BB pg 091 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
See you, Tama-chan.

Thank you for today.

Don't be....

>Panel 2
So, your house was a dojo.

How nice... I'm jealous.

>Panel 3
If it's fine with you...

>Panel 4
May I come here again?

>panel 6
Next time,

I'll come with my shinai and armor...

>Panel 7
......Yes...

>Panel 8
Oh?

>Almost Last Panel (NOTE: tsukemono --> Japanese pickled vegetables)
She went home already?

I just wrapped up some tsukemono for her.

BB pg 092 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Is she a friend from school?

>Panel 2
Nuh-uh.

Oh, she's not?

>Panel 3
I felt like I saw her somewhere...

Uuuuumu (text)

>Panel 5
Father.

Hm.

>Panel 6
The dojo......

Will I inherit it someday?

>Panel 7
Haha, unlike in the past, I'm now practising kendo as my hobby.

The dojo is pretty much just in name only.

>Panel 8
You don't need to worry about it, do whatever you wish to do.

>Panel 9
But, I would like you to help me just for a little bit more.

This must be hard for you but I'm sorry.

Nuh-uh.

>Last Panel
Father-

has always been reserved towards me.

BB pg 093 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>panel 1
He's not strict towards me.

He never told me to become strong.

>Panel 2
That's why,

I never thought about getting stronger.

>Panel 3
When you win a match,

you feel happy.

>Panel 4
When you lose,

you feel mortified.

>Panel 5
--------But,

>Last Panel
I have-

no such feelings.

Sensei,

why are you practising kendo?

BB pg 103 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Just so you know, even if you ask me, I doubt you can use my answer as a reference.

>Panel 3
Men are such a simple creature.

>Panel 4
They're practising because it's cool, or because they want to get stronger. It's something like that.

>Panel 6
Then... Sensei.

>Panel 7
Sensei,

what do you want me to be?

>Last Panel
.....I want you to grow up.

BB pg 104 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I couldn't-

give any answer.

>Panel 2
I am still immature myself after all.

I couldn't give her a clear suggestion, I only made things harder.

>Panel 3
You have to find the answer yourself.

All I did was running away.

>Panel 5
Whoops.

>Panel 8
Tama...

>panel 9
You see...

the problem it's not what I want you to be...

>Last Panel

Oh, you also have a club activity today?

I'm going.

>Panel 4

...Never mind.

Do your best in the club,

This time, we will have a chat with a kendoka housewife.

>Panel 2
Kawazoe Tsubaki-san (22)

>Panel 3
What is your goal, Kawazoe-san?

>Panel 5
Why are you-

practising kendo?

>Panel 6
As I am just a novice, people may think that what I'm about to say is too conceited, but......

I am doing my utmost right now in order to convey the ideal to the young ones.

>Panel 7
It is the feeling of gratitude towards kendo.

Fuwah~, what a fine goal.

>Last Panel
Up until now, I have kept on swinging shinai from morning to evening, but-

the more I practice, the more I feel that I just started walking down this unimaginably long path.

BB pg 110 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I don't tell people to the point that kendo will make them successful or healthy.

However, I do believe that conviction towards kendo is the one thing that draws people to kendo.

>Panel 2
I watched people who walked down this path.

If the children who are currently growing up obtained the same conviction as me, I think I could say that my belief holds true.

>Panel 3
The children will then grow up further.

And if they pass that down to the next generation,

>Panel 4
that would mean my kendo will go on ceaselessly.

>Panel 5
That is-

my dream right now.

>Panel 6
Fuwah~ what a magnificent goal---

Now that I said it out loud, it really sounded exaggerated.

But to sum it up, I'd like everyone to enjoy practising kendo.

>Panel 7
I will teach my students about how enjoyable kendo is,

and then my students will teach the students of the next generation how enjoyable kendo is.

>Last Panel
If everyone could be happy that way, then I'm happy myself.

BB pg 111 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 4
Why am I practising kendo?

Fuo? (Text)

>panel 6
That is, of course.....

because I've always loved kendo!

>Panel 7
I wonder about it myself....

And I'm really weak at it.

Strange, isn't it?

>last Panel
I like the kendo's ideal,

I also like looking at people doing practices and matches because they look cool.

I also like to just swing the shinai.

BB pg 112 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I even like sweating from practising kendo,

and the shriek that sounds like a weird bird.

I love everything of kendo, // absolutely everything.

>Panel 2
I guess...

I can't explain it clearly.

>panel 3
Is that so...

>Panel 4
But, it's different now, Tama-chan.

>Panel 6
Right now, I have a crystal clear goal!

I've found it!

>Last Panel
And that is-

to become like you, Tama-chan!

BB pg 113 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
To be just like you, Tama-chan.

I want to become a strong, dignified,

and cool girl!!

>Panel 4

I have met many people.

I have experienced many things.

I have known many feelings towards kendo.

>Panel 5
And,

I have known what mother had-

entrusted to me.

>Panel 6
I took my time... thinking about it.

I have thought about my first time practising kendo.

About what kendo truly means to me.

>Last Panel
And then,

I have found it.

BB pg 118-119 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I want to become a teacher.

>Panel 1
Is that-

>Panel 2
as in kendo teacher....?

Or school teacher?

>Panel 3
Um.....

I haven't thought that far yet.

>Panel 4
I....

When I'm practising kendo, what I myself found as the most enjoyable-

was that I could spread the joy to everyone.

>Panel 5
That everyone could enjoy practising kendo by doing it together with me-

was my greatest happiness.

>Panel 6
I am still immature right now.

That's why, I thought I have to improve myself even more, so that I could properly teach kendo to people.

>Last Panel
From now on,

I want to swing the shinai for the sake of that.

BB pg 122 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I love this kendo club.

I love practising kendo with everyone in the club.

>Panel 2
I admire sensei who is supporting this kendo club.

>Panel 4
I want to become a teacher like Kojiro-sensei.

BB pg 123 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
That is my goal!

>Panel 3
You're a genius, aren't you? You can write any kind of script, right?

I refuse!

>Panel 4
An all-female superhero story? You want me to write that kind of story?

Spare me your sleeptalk.

>Panel 5
Please, Ushimatsu-sa~an

You wrote writing Black Duran in the end, didn't you?

>Panel 6
That's just a worthless story wrote by a man.

I don't wanna write anything else besides the man's way of live.

>Panel 7
Sorry, but try someone else.

BB pg 134 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1+2
But really, I'm so looking forward to the response of today's broadcast.

It'd be a waste to do this just for one time only.

Let's do a kendo program once again with Erina-chan as the main from the beginning.

>Panel 3
We're planning for it, of course.

>Panel 4
Next time, I'd like to include not just the active kendoka, but also those who still have something left to do back in their school days.

I'm sure there are many people who are thinking that if only they didn't stop, or that if only they tried harder.

>Panel 5
Just like Sawamiya Erina-----

>Panel 6
Aim for all Japan championship...!?

>Panel 7
Even the office wants you to come out there as a kendoka.

Seems like it's earlier than the office's plan, but- // this is the occasion.

>Panel 9
If you wish to deal with it seriously,

I think that's good.

Yeah.

Unfortunately, they failed the test.

>Panel 3
When it come to achievements, our platoon is pretty low in ranking, but- // I guess there are still candidates who are interested in joining us, huh~~?

>Panel 4
That is partly because you are here!

Eh?

>Panel 5
Our record in the tournament was fair enough, but... // the number of the group members barely meets the minimum.

In addition to that, the one who have the full responsibility to be the attacker was a lone first year, you alone! // .....And so, a shallow bunch gathered and came here thinking they could be successful by joining our platoon!!

No, I didn't mean to join in like that, but.....

>Panel 4
I meant just watching from the side, I mean.... // I'd like to find a way to become stronger, ah, um...

>Panel 5
Basically, you want to observe our training for study, // and then use it as a reference for your own training, yeah?

Aah, so bright~~~ (Handwritten Text Bubble)

Y-yes! // I won't cause you trouble!!

That's right!! (Leo's Text)

>Last Panel
If he's just observing, then there should be no problem, right?

Reporters also come here once in a while to collect data. (Layfon Text)

.....So, he doesn't want to join as a platoon member // and he just wants to use our training as a reference. Rather hard to understand.

....A hindrance.

CSR 011 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1+2
....The city where I lived in before- // has never come into contact with Filth Monster, not even once.

Thanks to that, there aren't many who are interested in Military Arts. There are only a few people who receive proper training.

Then, you too....

Yes, all I have learned is the basic usage of Kei.

>Panel 4
But, I, as a military artist, // want strength that is strong enough to protect the city!!

But if he gave up just from that, then next time...

No, but I'm sure there are many other ways of doing it...

Maybe I should have told him gently....

But that was for his sake....

>Panel 5
It's not like he's lacking in Kei capacity.

If we put together a training menu and make him train hard starting from now until graduation, he should be able to reach the class of a platoon member.

What are you going to do if you can't even manage yourself!?
If you were to collapse and trouble the people around you again,
prepare yourself to clean the Military Training Facility for a month as the penalty!!

>Panel 2
Y- // Yes ma'am...

If only......you would tell me properly, // I would be able to match the training schedule with yours.

Eh..... // is that okay?

But know that there's a limit!! // If you're working until you collapse just like this time, then it's rejected!!

Hm?

Hmmm?

>Panel 3
What? // What on earth is this empty place!?

Why is Konoha in a place like this!?

>panel 4
As Konoha remembers, Konoha felt relieved after making a ruckus in the room yesterday.

And then, Konoha was supposed to fell asleep just like that...

>Panel 5
Ooooi,

is anybody here?

>Last Panel
Fugyah!?

Pg 04 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So, this is the world of the gods.

Pg 05 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I'm really surprised~~.

To think there was this kind of place in the neighborhood.

>Panel 2
We're not here for sightseeing!

>Panel 3
Konoha is inside THAT!

We must make haste and bring her back!

>Panel 4
How did Konoha become like that?

>Panel 5
She is closing herself in her own shell.

Konoha refuses to accept that she is a god of poverty, so she hardened her heart and sealed herself.

>last Panel
Konoha-sama...

Pg 06 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
It's my fault...

If only I paid more attention to Konoha-sama...

>Panel 2
Hmph.

>Panel 3
Konoha causing trouble to everyone around her is an everyday occurrence. // No one is at fault here.

>Panel 4
More importantly... we have to... // quickly call out to Konoha...

>Last Panel
Konoha-samaaaa!

Can you hear meeee!?

Pg 07 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1+2
Let's go home togetheeeer!

Konoha-samaaaa!

>Panel 3
...No response...

>Panel 4
Heh.

If she did, then we wouldn't go through this trouble.

>Panel 5
In the first place, you brought me here- // because you had planned to use that method all along, right?

>Panel 6
Umu, // quite.

>Panel 7
Eh?

"That method"?

>Last Panel
It is this method!

Pg 08 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Benzaiten (on her clothes)

>Panel 3 (NOTE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amano-Iwato)
Just like the origin of Amano-Iwato, // we celebrate a festival and dance in order to pull out the god who shut herself!

>Panel 4+5
And then!

>Last Panel
The main event of the festival is Koutarou and ME♥

If Konoha saw us flirting together, she is sure to come out flying!

Pg 09 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1+2+3
H-hey!

Please stop that!!

>Panel 4
Hohoho

>Last Panel
Ooh! // It's going well!

We have some response!

Pg 10 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Keep at it, Kirika!

Hohoho (Smaller Text)

>Panel 2
Muu...

>Panel 3
Can't leave it to Kirika...

>Panel 4
...I will-

do my best as well...!

>Panel 5
Eeh!?

>Panel 6
Hold it there! You are getting in the way!

No, I'm not...

>Last Panel
Okay! Go drink and help fire things up, everyone!

Ooh!

Pg 11 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
It's festival time! It's Konoha Festival!

Aah! Please don't touch me in strange places.

I shall not lose!

I'm better at this...

>Panel 2
Uugh... can it really go well by doing it like this!?

>Panel 4+5+6
...Sigh...

Dead for the time being. (Koutarou's sign)

Koutarou...

I wonder if he is having a hard time right about now...

Pg 12 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
...I am feeling uneasy somehow!

>Panel 2
Oi!

Did anything happen!?

>Panel 3
I told you not to worry, didn't I!? // If something did happen, I can tell right away!

I, the god, guarantee it!

And that god is the one I can't trust the most!

>Panel 4
In any case, it is better to warm up Koutarou-san's body.

If his body became too cold, it will take more time to resurrect him.

>Panel 5
Warm his body?

>Panel 6
It is optimum to warm him up with body temperature. // If possible, do it directly while being naked!

Pg 13 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Can't help it, // I shall undress myself naked then.

>Panel 2
It's fine! I'll do it myself!

>Panel 4
We used to sleep together often when we were small.

Doing this much is nothing for me!

>panel 5
...You are still wearing your underwear, you see?

>Panel 6
I have to take off the underwear as well!?

Of course! // I could do this for you if you don't want to?

>Last Panel
Uugh...

Pg 14 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I have come this far! There is no returning for me!

>Panel 2
Congratulation!

>Panel 3
Uwaah!?

Don't get in without warning!!

Hm? What are you doing?

>Panel 4
I could say the same to you, granduncle. What is there to congratulate about!?

>Last Panel
Ooh! Listen to me!

My stock made an outrageously steep rise!

Pg 15 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
To think I would get so fortunate just because Konoha-sama left! // If I can get profit from all this, the town can just be destroyed for all I care!

Guhahaha (Text)

You are so going to get divine punishment wherever you go, granduncle!

>Panel 2
At any rate! I made a killing thanks to Konoha-sama!

Refined Sake - Shusendo (Text on the sake bottle)

>Last Panel
Kyouko! You are too close!

Uuh...

It's more effective this way....

Pg 16 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Koutarou-san, you go tell her! // You must appeal for my most beautiful self!

Even if you told me that...

>Panel 2
What an indecisive man! // This kind of man-

>Panel 3
should be treated like this!

Muguh!

>Panel 4
Then....

Mogah! (Shout)

I'll go like this...

>Last Panel
Oooh! We are doing good!

Put more effort! // Be more gaudy!

Pg 17 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
....Uuumu.

>Panel 2
Such a boring place~~~

If Konoha cannot find the exit soon, Konoha might die from boredom!

>Panel 3
Wahahaha...

What?

What is this sound?

>Panel 5
Koutarou... I will...

No, I will...

Uaah....

>Last Panel
Nuu!?

Pg 18 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now then!

It appears someone is trying to make a pass on Koutarou while Konoha is trapped!

And Konoha is almost bored to death here...

Unforgivable!!

Did you think you could flirt just because Konoha was trapped!?

>Panel 2
...Why are you here?

Were you not in the gods' world?

>Panel 3
The gods' world?

What are you talking about?

>Panel 4
Mu!?

>Panel 5
Aah!! Koutarou's soul is not present! // What happened here!?

That's what we want to ask!

I have a bad feeling about this somehow...

>Panel 1
...This is...

A fox figure...?

>Panel 2
Don't tell me...

was this thing inside the rock!?

>Panel 3
Not good... // Someone may have set us up!

>Last Panel
What do you mean!? Where is Konoha-sama?

Pg 23 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Konoha did not come here to the gods' world. // She's probably still somewhere at the Izumi's house.

Someone made it look as if Konoha went here!

>panel 2
Eh? At home!?

>Panel 3
Thank goodness! // So that means Konoha-sama didn't run away from home, right!?

Umu...

>panel 4
I don't really know if this is someone's prank, but... // we have to return and find Konoha-sama!

>Panel 5
Hm~mmm, there is a problem, actually...

>Last Panel
This is very hard for me to say~~~ // but if Konoha did not come to the gods' world...

Um...

Konoha-sama is fine being lightly dressed, (Intro Text)

no problem at all!! (Intro Text)

22nd Night [Konoha ran away from home!?]

Pg 02 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1 + 2 + 3
Hmmm.

Where has the missing Konoha gone to.....? (Intro Text)

Konoha is not here either, is she?

>Panel 4
Let's see... could it be that she escaped somewhere- // in fear of my inspection...?

Pg 03 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Wha-

What are you doing!?

>Panel 2
....I'm...

washing your back...

>Panel 3
What is it!? Don't get overly familiar!

You better be not thinking that we are sisters or anything!

>Panel 4
Yep...

because....

>Panel 5
Same...

>Last panel
Hmph!

Don't think we're sisters just because of the hairdo!

Pg 04 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Konoha-samaaaa!!

>Panel 2
Wha-what's with you!?

Suddenly getting into women's bath!

>Panel 3
Did you see Konoha-sama here!?

No, I did not! I am also searching for her!

>Panel 4
Did.... something happen?

>Panel 5
That's....

>Panel 6
I found this-

Out for ascetic training, much obliged (letter)
-Konoha (letter)

in Konoha-sama room!

Pg 05 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Eeh!?

>Panel 2
....I knew it, // Konoha-sama did feel uneasy about the proof of being the god of poverty.

But, I would never have thought she would leave like this....

>Panel 3
This is terrible!

To think an evil god is wandering around freely!

>Panel 4
That's right!

She might have gone to Makoto's house!

>Panel 5 + Last
Ah, Makoto!?

Did Konoha-sama go there!? // ...I see, she didn't....

No, actually---

Pg 06 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1+2+3
Uuumu, // the room is pretty much ruined....

Was this Konoha's doing?

Probably...

It must be hard for her to come to term that she's, in fact, a god of poverty...

>Panel 4
...Konoha-sama is a kind goddess.... // That must be why she left home, so that she won't trouble us....

And she's already troubling us by doing that...

>Panel 5
I already said this before, but Konoha is obsessed with Koutarou.

I'm sure she won't go that far from here.

>Last Panel
Though, I do think that she will come home when she's hungry...

Hm?

Pg 07 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
That thing,

what is that?

>Panel 2
What is that cloud!?

>Panel 3
That's a fortune disturbance.

This one is much bigger than the one from before!

>Panel 4
Could that be Konoha-sama's!?

>Panel 5
Umu.....

But...., the power of this disturbance is....

Pg 08 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I shall go and check it!

!? Where are you going?

>Panel 2
The gods' world!

>Panel 3
The gods' world?

>Panel 5
That disturbance is coming from the world of the gods.

Then, that would mean...

>Last Panel
Mu!

What a storm!

Pg 09 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 3
What on earth is that!?

Shirohime-sama!

>Panel 4
Indeed! What is happening here!?

This storm is caused by that thing!

>Panel 5
Since its appearance this morning, // the force of fortune keeps on declining, but everyone managed to keep it in check somehow.

>Last Panel
Honestly! I can only wonder who brought such an ominous thing! // That thing has greatly angered all the gods here!

Pg 10 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Uuumu.

>Panel 3
....Without a doubt, Konoha is inside that thing!

>Panel 4
Not good... Konoha is originally a god from my territory....

All of these will become my fault at this rate!

>Panel 5
Shirohime-sama, please lend us your help as well!

I know!

>Last Panel
Ah, where are you going!?

I alone won't be able to do much, I will bring some help!

Pg 11 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
The influence is getting stronger even here in the present world!

I have to make haste!

>Panel 3
Koutarou!!

>Panel 4
I have found Konoha! // She was indeed in the world of the gods!

Really!? Thank goodness!

>Panel 5
Umu, // I would like your cooperation to bring back Konoha.

>Last Panel
Of course! // I will do whatever I can!

Pg 12 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Such an admirable dedication,

very well.

>panel 2
I have to ask you-

to die for meeee!

>Panel 3
EEEK!?

>Panel 4
HEY!

>Last Panel
Asking Koutarou to die abruptly, just what are you trying to do here!?

Pg 13 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
It is not like I will have him die for good! // It's only temporary!

>Panel 2
Human can't possibly enter the gods' world while being alive.

They will need to die and then become a soul first.

>Panel 3
This is the only way to bring back Konoha quickly!

>Panel 4
Do you understand now? // You'll just have to die for a teeny weeny bit. // It won't hurt, it reeeeally won't hurt , okay?

No... uh...

>Panel 5
Teeny weeny or not, it doesn't change the fact that he will die!

>Last Panel
I am telling you that it will be fine!

Why can't you understand!?

Pg 14 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
That is where the god of death makes her entrance, she who manipulates life and death!

As long as the physical body is fine, resurrection is but a simple thing!

>Panel 2
Eh!?

Kotori had that kind of power!?

>Panel 3
What is it!?

Know that I will never do such a thing!

>Panel 4
Then, that's fine! // Like I will ever entrust Koutarou's life to someone like Kotori!

>panel 5
But, asking me to die is just...

Pg 15 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
And there's the cliched problem of failing the resurrection...

Well, Kotori-sama is an ill-fated god who always clumsily exposes herself after all~~

Completely unreliable!

>Panel 2
Those thoughtless words you uttered towards the god shall not go unpunished!

>Panel 3
Very well, I shall grant you death!

>Panel 4
Eh!? // Like I said, dying is rather troubling...

>Panel 5
No need to worry, there won't be any pain.

Pg 16 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Now,

please feel my breasts.

>Panel 3
Wha!?

>panel 4
My abundant breasts are capable of pulling out souls without inflicting any pain. // Now come, hurry!

>panel 5
No, no way!!

FeeIing up breasts!? I won't let this go! // E-even I have yet to...!!

Pg 17 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Calm down! I will have your breast touched as well later!

That is not the point here!

>panel 2
Come! This is to bring back Konoha!

Hurry!

>panel 3
Feel my breast softly, okay!?

I will kill you if you touch them roughly, you hear!?

>panel 4
But I will get killed either way...

>Last Panel
Uuh... so, I will meet death finally, huh...? This sucks~

But, it will trouble everyone if I don't bring back Konoha-sama.

Pg 18 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Eeei!!

>panel 3
Hnn......

>Panel 5
....Huh?

Nothing happened?

>panel 6
Look below you.

>Last Panel
Below?

Pg 19 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Dead! // I am dead!!

>panel 2
So, this is death... // The "it's too quick" feeling sure is real...

>Panel 3
Koutarooooou!

>Panel 4
UWAAAH! // Koutarou has diiied!

Waaaaah! (Text)

Don't cry! Koutarou is right here!

Well, you can't see him normally, though. (Text)

>Panel 5
Makoto... to think that you would grieve for me so much...

He heh... (Text)

You just have to have a childhood friend, huh?

>Last Panel
Make sure you resurrect him as soon as possible! // You definitely have to!

I know!

Pg 20 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Let's go, Koutarou!

I sure hope I will be brought back to life properly...

>Panel 2
...I'm sure Konoha-sama is feeling lonely right now...

I have to go and meet her quickly!

>Panel 3 + Last (NOTE: Ookuninushi's kanji is 大国主 which means more or less "the master of a great nation")
The gods' world is in crisis!? (Outro text)

Yes... the matter about Konoha is proceeding favorably.

Please leave it to us, Ookuninushi-sama.

Aah, so you do like Yamamoto-sensei...

I-I can do it!!

>panel 5
Mamoru-kun?

hanamaru_02 113 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
Ah!

>Panel 3
Heeey~~~

Honestly~~~ (text)

Oooh, ruuuun!

>Panel 4
HEEEEY!!
Don't bully Yamamoto-sensei!! (handwritten text inside bubble)

We're not bullying her! (naughty boy text)

>Panel 5
Such a childish way of expressing love...
Hoh hoh hoh...

Oy... (boy text)

F-fighting is bad~~

>Panel 6
Gya gya

>Panel 7
From then on, (box)

I don't like Yamamoto-sensei!

Then, why don't you...

>Last Panel
Go, Mamoru! (bad boys text)

Waah (Yamamoto-sensei text)

Ah~ (black hair)

Hey~ (blond? hair)

hanamaru_02 114 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
That's dangerous, so let's get down from there, okay~

Mamoru, you're awesome!

>Panel 2
Oo~oi, it's time to go home~, Mamoru-kuuun?

Yup, stay still just like that.

Mamoru-kuuun.

>Panel 3
I wonder if I did something wrong~?

Mamoru-kun won't listen to me recently~

>Panel 4
Boys at that age are very shy, they can't honestly express their feelings.

Fufu... (Hii-chan text)

That's so right! // Bullying a girl they like, that's just so childish!

Hah! (Anzu text)

How come you guys are the ones who do the counseling?

Is that really the case~?

>Last Panel
But, that really made Yamamoto-sensei troubled~

Thank you, Koume-chan~

That's true... (Anzu text)

hanamaru_02 115 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
AH! (White Text)

If we pair those two... (Yamamoto-Mamoru)

Happyyyyyy!! (Tsucchi-Anzu)

Anzu is a genius! (Anzu)

>Panel 2
Tsucchi! Let's pair Yamamoto-sensei with Mamoru!

Kyaa (Anzu text)

Kyaa (Anzu text)

Now, that's a little problematic.

>Panel 3
Though, this is getting a little bit too far...

>Panel 4
Waa Waa Waa

>Panel 5
Haaa~... (Text)

Yamamoto-sensei is troubled...

>Panel 6
Mamoru, Mamoruuu!

Come here (text near tsucchi bubble)

Tsuchida-sensei?

>Panel 7
I'll be borrowing him for a bit!

Okaaay.

hanamaru_02 116 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
We can talk privately here.

>Panel 3
You're actually don't want to trouble Yamamoto-sensei, right?

EH!?

>Panel 4
T-that's...

It's fine, no one else is listening...

>Panel 5
Tsucchi, do your best!

I'm worried...

I can't see~ (Koume text)

>Panel 6
You're just doing it because the kids around you are telling you to, right? // You actually like Yamamoto-sensei, don't you?

No...not really...

>Last Panel
I did the same thing when I was still a child, that's why I understand.

Lying to yourself is hard, right?

hanamaru_02 117 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Yes.

>panel 2
Then, you should convey your feeling-

to Yamamoto-sensei whom you love.

>Panel 3
But, everyone keeps saying that...

It's fine (text inside tsucchi bubble)

Those guys actually like Yamamoto-sensei as well, you see?

They just can't be honest~ (Text)

>Panel 4
So, that's how it is!

>Panel 5
Looks like it's going smoothly!

Right...

>Last Panel
Th...then,

what should I do to convey my feelings to Yamamoto-sensei?

hanamaru_02 118 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
What should I do indeed...

Tsu...Tsuchida-sensei?

>Panel 2
You know what, I've trying to appeal to Yamamoto-sensei again and again but she just won't realize it, not at all.
While I do understand that her mind is filled with the kids, I just wish that she would care about love a little.
Aren't we at that age already? But being an airhead is part of Yamamoto-sensei's charm, so I guess I don't really want her to change that.
Still, there's a guy this close to you, how I wish she would look at me even if it's just a little. How should I call this? Man's heart?
The way of thinking of a normal guy with a normal sense, you see...

>Panel 3
Not too long ago, I even gave her movie tickets, but she responded so easily saying that I should go with the kids.
Without realizing my feeling at all, you see... Also, when the two of us went out shopping, all she talked about was
kids, kids, and kids. I also tried to casually approach her but she didn't notice in the slightest.

He did all those... (Anzu)

Now, now... (Hii)

Whaat~? (Koume)

>Panel 4 (Ahhh, the wonderful handwriting~)
...Sensei, good luck to you, too...

I'll do my best, too (Mamoru)

I want her to see me as a man, does she think of me the same as the kids... (wonderful handwriting)

>Last Panel
And then,

hanamaru_02 119 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
I-

I like you!

>Panel 3
A-also, I'm sorry for all my pranks...

>Panel 4
...Thank you, I'm really happy.

>Panel 5
Sensei also loves Mamoru-kun.

But you know, // right now, Sensei still wants to do her best with her job.

hanamaru_02 120 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
...Then,

>Panel 2
I'll do my best so I can be liked as much as Sensei's job!

Like cleaning, or playing... // And I'll eat the food I don't like, too!

>Panel 3
...Of course!

>Panel 4
I like Yamamoto-sensei, so I won't bully her!

Oh, ooh...

Mamoru, you're so cool...

>Panel 5 (Hmm, should I use "dad" or "otou-san"?)
Hello...? // Ah, Dad?

>Panel 6 + last
Onee-chan? // ...Looks like she received a love letter, she's in a dream world right now.

Worried? Worried? (Text inside bubble)

WHA~~AAT~~!? // Love letter!? Hold it right there, Dad hasn't...

>Letter
To Yamamoto-sensei

Sensei, I love you.
Please be my bride.

Mamoru

>Panel 2
So, this one couldn't handle the "stone" either....

>Panel 3
And this body of mine still continues to age and wither.

>Panel 4
Where might you be...? // The alchemist who is able to grant my wish...

Pg 02 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Cloître~~~Cloître~~~
As the desertification has buried the railroad beyond this point, we----

>Panel 2
Uwah~~~~ zo hot~~~~!!

Can we really find it in the middle of desert like this?

>Last Panel
It looks like we can't expect too much here...

Pg 03 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
A lone boy and a suit of armor...!? Just what are they searching for!!? (Intro Text)

Pg 04 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ads/Music Artists Interview

Pg 05 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Here's your A-Lunch, enjoy.

>Panel 2
Excuse meee...

If you've got problems, then please don't eat. // Right now, you can find people who can't eat that slice of bread just about everywhere in this town.

>Panel 3
...Seems like we have come to one amazing place, huh?

Say, mister, this place is really Cloître "the desert oasis town", right?

Pg 06 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
People did call this town as "the oasis", but that's just a story from last year.

>Panel 2
We've been having abnormal weather here and we've got no rain anymore thanks to that.

We can't grow farm produce here and the livestocks are dead as well.

>Panel 3
It'd be nice if they could at least give us some tax exemption, but Major Alzen, this town's governor, is a frikkin' miser, you see? // And that bastard doesn't seem satisfied with his outrageous tax, 'coz he's even monopolizing the imported goods.

Heck, he even arrested anyone who dare to complain about this condition...

>Panel 4
Whether we'll just get dried up and die from waiting for the god-knows-when-it-will-fall rain, // or maybe we can just use up our little money, gather the family and go on an aimless journey,

or we'll just be criminals...

>Panel 5
and then get disposed of by being hanged... you know?

>Last Panel
Dad, nothing will change by complaining to some wanderers!

Pg 07 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Anyway, you guys are pretty weird for traveling to a place like this. // Must be one of those filthy rich guys who have a lot of time or something.

And that guy over there is also wearing a weird-looking armor. (Text)

Oi, Rose! That's rude!

Nah, it's more like searching for something rather than just plain traveling.

>Panel 2
Aah, that's too bad for you guys. // There's aaabsolutely nothing in this town.

No people, no nothing.

>Panel 3
And incidentally, no god either.

>Panel 4
....Thanks for the meal. // Well, off we go.

Okay.

>Last Panel
Ah.

AAAAAHH!!

Pg 08 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Hey! Sir customer, you're giving us troubles!!

That's because you walk around in that thing...!

My bad, my bad, we'll fix it right away.

>Panel 2
"Fix it"? What are you...?

Well, just watch.

>Panel 3
---Okay!

>Panel 4
Well then, here I go.

>Panel 5
WHOA!?

>Last Panel
Wha....

Pg 09 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Looks good?

>Panel 2
.........................It's...

[This work is] Arakawa Hiromu-sensei's first completed work ever, but it is Fullmetal Alchemist (Prototype) this time. This was what became the foundation and started the serialization of Fullmetal Alchemist. (Outside Text)

>Panel 3
They're alchemiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiists!!!

Pg 10 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
Are the two of you truly alchemists?

>Panel 3
Yep!

The Elric Brothers... does that name ring a bell even here?

>Panel 4
Elric... they're the Elric Brothers!?

Then, the older one is Edward Elric, right!?

One of the State Alchemist...

>Panel 5
Edward Elric the Fullmetal Alchemist!!!

Pg 11 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
So, you're that genius alchemist!!

That makes sense! You're wearing this suit of armor, that's why your second name is "metal", isn't it!!?

>Panel 2
Um... it's not me...

Eh?

The very small one over there?

>Panel 3
Who are you calling a very small speck of dust!!!

>Panel 4 + 5
I am Alphonse Elric, the younger brother.

And I! Am the Fullmetal Alchemist!! Edward Elric!!!

NO WAAAAAAAY!! (Text)

>Last Panel
W-we beg of you! // Would you be so kind as to lend your power and save this town!?

Pg 12 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
We have heard that the so-called alchemy is a technique that could make anything!

>Panel 2
You said "save this town"... but how do I do that exactly?

Water... yes, we'd like you to make water!

>Panel 3
I see, water, huh?

Hmm (Text)

We're gonna need a considerable amount of water if we are to save the whole town, huh?

>Panel 4
Sure.

>Panel 5
I'll do it for ten million!

>Last Panel (RANT: Hey, it's Dr. Marco!)
Ten mil... No way!!

In this condition, there's no way we have that much....

So cruel!!

Pg 13 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
To gain something, you'll need to sacrifice something of an equal value. You do understand that, right? Since you guys are adults.

Ten million, if I don't have the recompense, then this talk never happened.

>Panel 2
See ya.

>Panel 3
The last... ray of hope...

It's all over... this town is finished...

>Panel 4
Let's get out from here, we'll pack up our things tomorrow if we have to.

But, where are we going to?

There's nothing we can do even if we stay here!!

I'd like to die in this town...

Grandma...

>Panel 5
Damn it! Ten million!? // That brat is trying to take advantage of our situation!!

The State Alchemists are just military dogs after all!!

Pg 14 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Heeey, hold it! // Heeeey!!

Gee, what a persistent missy~~~ // Don't follow us~~~

>Panel 2
Don't you feel anything seeing everyone being in trouble!? You heartless!!

Heartless is fine by me!

>Panel 3
When you see the condition of the town, you at least feel "oh, how terrible" or "I have to do something", don't you!?

"If you want me to do something then gimme something of equal value" is what I feel!

>Panel 4
What's with that!? You're the so-called genius alchemist, aren't you!? It won't hurt you to transmute something a little!!

Miser!! Scrooge!!

Money-grubber!! // Cheapskate!!

>Last Panel
Uhh, and then... and then...

Pg 15 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
The Fullmetal Alchemist, Edward Elric-dono, we presume?

>Panel 3
The military police!?

whisper whisper whisper (SFX)

Hey, were you doing something bad....?

whisper whisper whisper (SFX)

We're not doing anything, YET!!

"Yet"?

So, you're planning to?

>Panel 4
We are here as escorts under Major Alzen's order!!

Upon hearing that the world famous genius Fullmetal Alchemist is stopping by, the Major would love to extend his warmest welcome to....

>Last Panel
....Eh?

The very small one over there?

Pg 16 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1 + 2
Pl-please forgive our rudeness!!

...It's fine already... // So? I just have to go alone?

No, if sir younger brother and, of course, your honored friend are with you, we were told to them bring along as well.

Really? Alright! // Then, I can complain directly to that Major!

Eeeeh? You're coming too?

What!? That's because you won't do anything!

Sure, sure.

>Panel 3
Uhaaaah~~~ // He's living in one heck of a castle, damn it.

Nii-san, that is a bad manner.

>Panel 4
We are ordered to escort sir younger brother and the honored lady to a different room....

It appears that Major Alzen wishes to discuss a complicated issue with Edward-sama.

>Panel 5
My my, what do we have here, welcome, welcome!

Pg 17 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1 +2
I am Alzen, the governor of this town.

Today, I invited you here not for an official business but for a personal one, so please relax yourself, there's no need to be formal...

'that so?

I won't hold back then.

>Panel 3
Go ahead, you may first enjoy the meal!

No need to be shy!

>Panel 4
Hmmm...

Nice meal you have here. // And the town is in that condition.

>Panel 5
Hahaha! That is quite embarrassing, we are unable to have complete control of the tax collection, you see?

The taxpayers do not pay enough taxes and all they do are claiming for their rights.

Pg 18 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
---Oh, pardon me, this trivial discussion is not what I have invited you here for.

>Panel 2
"Trivial"..., eh?

>Panel 3
Straight to the point.

>Panel 4
Unwithering and unaging.

Could you transmute me an immortal body?

>Panel 5
Nope, good bye.

So fast!!

>Panel 6
Bastard! You are talking to the Major how can...

Wait a moment, // Why do you refuse?

----Geez, I wonder why everyone with power always think the damn same thing, now or in the past.

Pg 19 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
It just means that there ARE territories that humans must not overstep.

>Panel 2
Talk's over! I'm going home!

>Panel 3
Without taking your little brother and friend with you?

>Last Panel
....We kind of got tricked, it seems.

We got tricked, totally!!

Pg 20 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1+2
Aaaah~~~, even though I'm not doing anything bad.

Well, don't be so downhearted.

There's no way I can't be downhearted in this situation!! // I'm sure they'll blame us for something we didn't do and then kill us~~~~~

We can get out from here anytime if I use alchemy, though. (Text)

>Panel 4
There.

Waah!

>Panel 5
Amazing, so amazing...

This is nothing compared to Nii-san. // He can transmute things without the transmutation circle, after all.

>Panel 6
Alchemy is such an amazing technique that can create anything, isn't it!

Hmm... I wonder. // Seems like alchemy is thought to be an useful technique that can infinitely produces anything.

>Last Panel
Generally speaking, it would be something like the law of conservation of mass and the law of nature logic, I suppose?

Among the alchemists, there are those who can invoke the four basic elements and the three primary substances, but...

Pg 21 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Um, you see.

Basically, from a certain weight of something, you can only get as much as that certain weight. // So, from something of water property you can only recreate things that have water property.

>Panel 2
In short---

>Panel 3
The basic of alchemy, "the equivalent exchange"!!

To transmute something as absurd as an immortal body is just plain impossible.

>Panel 4
To transmute one to one hundred... // No, what do you think if you can even recreate one to ten thousand?

That kind of theory is just...

>Panel 6
Don't tell me...

Pg 22 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1+2
The Philosopher's Stone....!

>Panel 3
Correct!

The item which is thought to be only a legend, the illusionary alchemy amplifier...

>Panel 4
It cost me a tremendous sum of money in order to get this, you see?

If you, the alchemists, were to use this, I wonder just how much you can transmute for such a small price....

>Last Panel
It's just that... it appears quite difficult to transmute an immortal body, after all.

I've been having countless alchemists to give a try, however...

Pg 23 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Everyone failed and ended up dead.

>Panel 2
That's what we call a rebound.

Despite the inadequate knowledge in alchemy, they want to manipulate life which is pretty much still a black box to humans. // It's inevitable that the users would have their life taken in exchange.

>Panel 3
However, it might be possible to create a body that won't die if I have this.

>Panel 4
Then, you will be able to do it, I assume? // State Alchemist, Edward Elric.

>Panel 5
......The Philosopher's Stone...

If we have the stone, both Al and I can....

What do I do... what do I do......!!?

>Last Panel
......Can I also state some conditions here?

Pg 24 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
First,

you will let us go, if I succeeded granting your wish.

>Panel 2
Second,

after the transmutation, you will hand over what left of the stone.

>Panel 3
Oh, is that all?

I can at least do that much.

>Panel 4
Promise?

>Panel 5
Then, I'll have Major's nail or any fragment of you.

Even your hair will do.

>Panel 6
My hair... (Text)

...Someone, get me a nail clipper...

>Last Panel
I see, // you're going to use the nail as the price.

Right, // this is your biological information, Major.

Pg 25 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Because it's impossible even for the legendary Philosopher's Stone to transmute things from zero. // Now, to combine Major's nail together with the stone...

>Panel 2
Gulp.

Ah... // He ate it!!

>Panel 4
Uoh!!

>Last Panel
So, this is the Philosopher's Stone.

This REALLY is one heck of an amplifier.

Pg 26 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
With this thing here...!!

>Panel 3
Oooh...

>Panel 4
Is this the immortal body's...?

>Panel 5
Do you really want to take this thing?

>Last Panel
But of course!!

Pg 27 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
GUOOOOH!!

>Panel 3
Major!!

>Panel 4
Brat! What did you...!

Wait...

>Last Panel
Hold it...

Pg 28 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 6
Ooohh...(Text)

>Last Panel
Ku.... // Haha...

Pg 29 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Hahahahah, how's that!!? I have not even one scratch!! Truly an immortal body!!

The eternal dream that everyone has been yearning for is now in my hands!! Impressive!! Perfect!!

Hahahahaha (Text)

>Panel 2
So sorry for ruining the glorious moment, but can we go home now?

Hahahahahahah (Text)

>Panel 3
Aah, my apologies. // I'm so very excited that I forgot about you.

>Panel 4
Now, we can't have you go somewhere and let you make another immortal human, can we?

>Last Panel
I will have you leave the stone as well.

Pg 30 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
No trans needed

Pg 31 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1+2
Alphonse!!

Heh! Even wearing that bulky thing, a single surprise stab to the armor's opening is more than enough.

>Panel 3+4
NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

Oi, we should shut that one up...

too....

*Gasha*

>Last Panel
WHAAAAA!?

Pg 32 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
That was mean, mister.

>Panel 3
Wha.... what's happening here!?

>Panel 4
How can you be alive after getting stabbed in the neck!!?

Ummm... // since it's a long story...

Pg 33 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
It's basically like this.

>Panel 2
T-there's no one inside...!?

Empty!?

>Panel 3
This is the punishment.

The punishment for us humans who overstepped our boundary, // and trespassed the god's domain.

>Panel 4
Mine,

and my brother's.

>Last Panel
Edward, too...?

Pg 34 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
.....This is...

>Panel 3
Goodness...

>Panel 4
Guess you won't keep your promise after all.

>Last Panel
Hey mister, // this won't be good enough.

Pg 35 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
Wha!?

>Panel 3
Fugah!!

>Panel 4

Crazy!!

>Panel 2
Aah, so that how it is...

>Last Panel
Fullmetal Alchemist!!

Pg 38 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
What are you doing!? Go get the stone back!

Yes sir!

>Panel 2
Oh ho~ // Picking up a fight against an Alchemist who got a Philosopher's Stone with him...

You guys don't care about your life, eh!?

>Panel 3
I'm gonna show you something nice, don't you go home in the middle of the show now!

>Last Panel
Wha.....

Pg 39 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
DHEEEEEEEH!?

Pg 40 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 3
Damn... you!

Stinking brat!!

Whoa!!

Don't get cocky, you~~~~~

>Last Panel
His left leg, toooooooooo!!!?

DOWAAAAAAAAAH!! (Text)

Pg 42 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
My left leg too indeed!!

>Panel 2+3+4
Al!

Al!

Alphonse!

Kind.... she was a truly kind mother.

>Panel 5+6
What's wrong, Nii-san?

All we wished for was to see our mother's smile one more time. (Box)

This is it! This theory is perfect!

Could this be...

>Last Panel
That's right! We can revive Mom with this!

Trying to create life without suspecting anything.

Pg 43 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Even if we have to break the alchemy's taboo... // because we have learned alchemy just for that single reason...

>Panel 2
The transmutation failed.

>Panel 3
The transmutation process took Nii-san's left leg,

>Panel 4
and my entire body. // That was when my consciousness stopped temporarily...

>Last Panel
The next time I opened my eyes...

Pg 44 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Heheh.... sorry about that. // With my right arm, all I could do was to transmute your soul...

That's too reckless!!

>Panel 2
Nii-san who had just lost one leg, in that badly injured condition, he transmuted and attached my soul to this armor in exchange of his right arm.

>Panel 3
I can't believe it... do we have to go that far to do transmutation?

I told you, didn't I? // The basic of alchemy is "the equivalent exchange".

>Panel 4
If you want to gain something, then you must pay the price accordingly.

Nii-san may be called a genius, but he paid the price called "hardwork" in order to become what he is right now.

>Panel 5
"If you want me to do something then gimme something of equal value" is what I feel! (Thought)

...How's your mother whom you have sacrificed so much for...?

Pg 45 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
She wasn't in the form of a human.

>Panel 3
No... why!!? // Nii-san's theory is supposed to be perfect!!

Yeah... the theory wasn't wrong...

>Panel 4
We ourselves... were the wrong ones....!

Pg 46 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
Guaaah!

>Panel 3
You're quite violent.

Pg 47 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I'm surprised that a kid like you could go so far against us.

However! // It's about time for your due punishment!

>Panel 2
'That so!?

Mm...!?

>Panel 4
Aryaah...

>Last Panel
Hahahahahah! This body you made sure is wonderful!

You may be proud of it!

Pg 48 --------------------------------------------------------------------------

.....Hmph....

Wonderful!!

It is wonderful indeed!!

Yes, yes, please excuse me---

Eeek!

Ah, // Nii-san, there you are.

My body is like this, you see...?

>Panel 3
So, I guess a single screw might have gotten mixed up during the transmutation.

Pg 53 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
You tricked me!!

>Panel 3
Damn it... my body...

My body is turning into metal...

>Panel 4+5+6+Last
Somebody! Help me! Now!!

Damn it aaaaall!!!

Like hell I would accept this!

Someone! Help!

Pg 54 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
UOOOOOOOOH!!

>Panel 2
Transmutation complete.

>Panel 3
Unwithering and unaging.

There you have it, the end you've been wishing for.

Pg 55 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 3
In the end, they said that the soldiers are not at fault since they had no choice but to follow the Major's orders. // Well, they're actually happy about what happened to the Major.

Seems like they're giving out the goods in the castle's warehouse to the townspeople. // ....Well, it's not like that will really help this town's situation.

>Panel 4
Besides, even without some evil guy like that Major, we can't really solve the real problem if there's no rain...

>Panel 5
We humans aren't capable to do anything about this.

>Panel 6
Just like this, the town will end up swallowed by the desert. And before long, its name will be erased from the map.

>Last Panel
Memories of happiness and hardship, everything will be swallowed by the sand and vanish.

Pg 56 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
....I don't like this...

>Panel 3
Tears shed from the bottom of your heart for the sake of something you want to protect, definitely priceless, // y'know?

>Panel 4
The recompense, // I have definitely received it.

Pg 57 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Everyone, come here!! // This is serious!!

>Panel 2
What is it? Making a ruckus like that.

Whatever, come quickly! You gotta see this! // Quick!!

>Last Panel
He....

...He frikkin' did it // That brat....

Pg 58-59 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
Aah....

God...!!

Pg 60 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Making a lake from a single teardrop... // The Philosopher's Stone is really something, isn't it?

>Panel 2
Yeah really, even I was surprised! This thing is seriously awesome!

Well, I was also surprised by your "human pump" gimmick, Nii-san.

Guguh (Text)

Peh (Text)

>Panel 3
But..., we can finally return to our real body with this...

>Panel 4
Finally...

>Panel 5
While we're at it, I guess I can stretch my height by 10 cm or something, yeah!?

So, you were worried about that...

>Panel 6
Oh?

Pg 61 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
....Well, you DID a stupidly huge transmutation, so I suppose that kind of went beyond the stone's tolerance level......?

>Panel 2
Me so stupid.

You okay?

>Panel 3
......Sorry, Al, even though I might be able to get back your original body with this.

But your arm and leg come first, Nii-san. // Since automail seems to have various problems.

>Panel 4
If I knew this was gonna happen, I wouldn't have transmuted all that.

>Panel 5
Aaa-ah...

Pg 62 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
....Well, // whatever.

Yup, // it doesn't really matter, does it?

>Panel 2
Well then, where shall we go now?

Somewhere that's not hot!

We'll be waiting for your opinions! (Outro)

For Complex Scans only

Pg 01 ----------------------------------------------------------------
Goddess x Childhood Friend, a combination that will make a priceless picture.(Intro)

21st Night [Konoha's Treasures]

Pg 02 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Konoha-sama is rummaging around, just what is she doing today?

>Panel 3+4
Mu!?

>Panel 5
Oi! Koutarou!

>Last Panel
Konoha found some fine-looking vase!

How is this one?

Pg 03 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Aaah, that's also a junk. // They said that vase can only be a junk.

What? That is no fun!

>Panel 2
Still, this is hard to understand. // Will they not be valuable as long as they are old?

Muuu(Text)

>Panel 3
Oh man....

>Panel 4
What is the matter? It sure is messy here.

Are you reorganizing the warehouse?

>Last Panel
Um, no,

that's---

Pg 04 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Yesterday, when we were watching TV about appraisal--- (Box)

Nhuo? That kind of old vase can fetch for such a price!?

>Panel 2
If it is about antiquity, the house of Izumi will not lose!

Treasure hunt! It is time we hunt for the treasure of the Izumiiii!

>Panel 3
And so, she got herself fired up.

It's been like this since morning.

>Panel 4
But granduncle has sold everything that is valuable here, hasn't he?

>Last Panel
Well, I did say that to Konoha-sama, but...

Pg 05 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Konoha-sama, there's really nothing here.

Let's just give up.

We are just starting!

>Panel 2
Well, I'm sure she will get tired of it soon, you should accompany her just a little bit more.

Haa~~

>Panel 4
Well then, I, too, have to accompany our god to her bath.

I will see you later.

>Last Panel
Eh? Today as well? // You've been doing it almost everyday lately, huh?

Hime-sama hates the bathroom in our house. // It'd be bad if she smells like a cat.

If you are a shrine maiden, you have to revere the god of your shrine more!

Pg 06 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Looks like the god over there is also pretty high maintenance.

>Panel 2
I wonder if every god is like this~~

Or is it because Konoha-sama that strange gods are gathering here...?

>Panel 3
Did you say something?

Ah, no! It's nothing! // I hope we can find something valuable~~

>Panel 4
However... there really is nothing left here but junks.

>Panel 5
Places that the gramps might overlook...

Maybe the ceiling....?

Pg 07 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
That is....

>Panel 3
This mark....

Where did Konoha see this again...?

>Panel 4
Uuumu....

Pg 08 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 4
Umu...

This scroll... could this be...

Pg 09 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Uwaaaaah!

>Panel 2
Eh!?

>Panel 3
Habuh!!

>Panel 4
Fugyah!!

>Panel 5
U~ungh....

Konoha-sama!? // Are you alright, Konoha-sama!?

Pg 10 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Do you understand, Konoha-sama?

>Panel 2
This fox symbol... is the mark.

>Panel 3
This will be a secret just between the two of us....

If somebody found out the secret, then Konoha-sama won't be able to stay here.

>Panel 4
You mustn't forget this....

>Last Panel
Thank goodness! You have come to!

Pg 11 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Owh... Ow, ow...

I think it's better to stay still for the time being. // You have to be careful with the wound on your head!

>Panel 2
Worry not. // A worldly injury will heal in no time.

>Panel 3
More importantly, where is the scroll!?

The scroll?

>Panel 4
Is this the one?

>Panel 5 + 6
Yes! This is it!

This scroll---

>Last Panel
holds information about the hidden treasure of the Izumi.

It is a treasure map!!

Pg 12 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Huh?

A treasure map!?

>Panel 2
Umu! Unmistakable. // Konoha remembered thanks to the bump to Konoha's head!

>Panel 3
"Remembered", that means.... // your memories have returned!?

>Panel 4
Precisely!

Konoha has regained her memories very clearly!

>Last Panel
Konoha was....

Konoha the goddess was---

Pg 13 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
actually born from the amassed dreams and breasts of all mankind!

The great-breasted goddess!!

>Panel 3
Umm...

That is... a lie, right?

>Panel 4
Umu! Konoha just exaggerated the conjecture a bit!

A bit!? Conjecture!?

But the map is indeed real.

>Panel 5
However... from what Konoha has faintly remembered, // it appears that Konoha will not be able to stay here if the treasure is found...

>Last Panel
....Eh?

Pg 14 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
In other words! It is such a valuable treasure that it will matter not even if Konoha's gloriously divine power were to disappear! // And that great treasure is lying in sleep right here!

>Panel 2
Aah... so THAT what she meant....

>Panel 3
A treasure that could blast away Konoha-sama's depressing power, is it....?

>Panel 4
It must be one amazing treasure!!

Did you slip in something really rude just now? (normal bubble)

Nope! Absolutely not!!

Let's find this treasure of the Izumi right away!!

>Last Panel
...Right now, it is obvious that Konoha-sama along with the other gods are right here with us, but...

In reality, the gods are more of a distant existence to us, right...?

Pg 15 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Someday, if Konoha-sama's memories really did come back,

I wonder if she would return to a place that can't be reached by humans' hands.

>Panel 3
Oi! What are you staring into space for!? // We are going, Koutarou!

Eh? "Going"!? Where to?

>Panel 4+5
Fugyaaah!

Pg 16 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I can at least wash my own rear!

But you have never wash it properly, have you!?

Cats groom by themselves!

>Panel 2
Hauu~ please stop it~~~

Here! Washing your tail will make you feel good~~

>Panel 3
Hm?

Pg 17 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Whoa!?

>Panel 2
This is the spot! Dig right here!

Okay!

>Panel 3
Oi!

What are you doing so suddenly!?

>Panel 4
Sorry, Makoto! // Somehow or the other, Konoha-sama said that there's a treasure here...!

>Last Panel
Um... that towel...

You can see through it....

Pg 18 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
That is because you guys suddenly got in here! // Take responsibility!

Ow ow!

Hey! Do not flirt around!

If you want a swimsuit, I have it!

>Panel 3
....Uu~~

Granduncle's clothing always makes you feel more embarrassed than just being nude!

>Panel 4
But.... is there really a treasure in a place like this?

Weeell, that's what Konoha-sama said, so~~

Pg 19 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Fumu... now that you mention, there is this thing that I heard of.

>Panel 2
In the past, there was a famous painter who stayed at this Izumi Hotspring.

During his stay, he left quite a few of his works here, it seems....

>Panel 3
Also, it appears that the works of that painter have become national treasures now.

Is that true!?

Fufufu.... have you now realized how right Konoha is!?

>Panel 4
Mu? // Looks like there really is something buried here!

>Panel 5
Very good! Now, dig it out!

Makoto! Help them! Go get a share of the treasure!

Don't spout such a petty thing!

>Last Panel
This is....

Pg 20 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Big Breast (Big Text)

Seal (Text on paper)

>Panel 2
? What on earth is this!?

>Panel 3
Could this be some sort of a treasure chest?

It might also be something dangerous!

>Last Panel
...Not sure why, but I know....

This thing... must have been buried by Konoha-sama.

Pg 21 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Anyway, try to open it, Koutarou!

Be careful!

>Panel 3
Eh?

>Panel 5
Wha? What are these junk!?

>Panel 6
...There is a name here.

>Panel 7
Konoha does not remember it, but...

these may be toys that Konoha used to play with.

>Last Panel
Eh!? // Then, this round treasure chest is....

Pg 22 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
A time capsule which Konoha-sama...

stored her memories to.

>Panel 2
Strange, is it not? Even though Konoha does not remember any of these,

>Panel 3+4
they are giving off a terribly nostalgic feeling....

Certainly,

>Last Panel
this could be-

something that is more precious than any treasure to Konoha...

Pg 23 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
...Isn't that great,

Konoha-sama?

>Panel 3
Kaaaaah!

>Panel 4
Peh!!

Whoa! Gross!

>Panel 5
The hell's that!? Memories won't make even one cent!

Junks! These are all junks!!

What did you saaaay!?

Try reading the mood, Gramps!

>Panel 6
No.... // Wait a minute....

Pg 24 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
You said that there might be the works of that famous painter among the treasure, didn't you?

Umu, // but that is just a mere conjecture.

>Panel 2
If the heirloom treasure is a painting....

>Panel 3
I see!

>Panel 4
It's the sealing paper that was attached to the chest!

Pg 25 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1 + 2
I knew it!

This is the heirloom treasure!

>Panel 3
Could this be... Konoha?

But for this to be Konoha-sama, I would say the breast part is way too much....

>Last Panel
Now I remember!!

Pg 26 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
That painting! Konoha had the painter to draw it for her!

It's a pinup!

>Panel 2
Eh?

>Panel 3
Konoha said that she wanted to advertise the hot spring by using her beauty. // And in order to do that, she forcefully had the painter to paint about one hundred portraits.

>Panel 4
She has been doing something like from a long time ago, huh?

Haha.

>Panel 5
The problem is after that.

>Last Panel
Almost everyone that received the portrait went bankrupt.

And then, since the gods from the suburbs started complaining, // I took care of the problem before it went out of control.

Pg 27 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1+2
That means, this painting is....

a proof that Konoha-sama is a god of poverty....

>Panel 4
...So, this is what he meant by "not being able to stay here"...

>Panel 5
...Sorry, Koutarou....

Konoha... it appears that Konoha is not a god that she thinks of....

Pg 28 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
What are you talking about!? Konoha-sama is Konoha-sama!

Right now or in the past, you'll always be the honored guardian god of the Izumi!

>Panel 2
That's so right! Everyone already knows that whether there's a proof or not!

Gramps! Could you please shut up!!

>Panel 3
...What? Are you trying to comfort Konoha!?

To show a pity to a god, do not get ahead of yourself!

No, I...

>Panel 4
....However,

>Panel 5
that part of you...

Pg 29 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Konoha--

does not dislike it.

>Last Panel
There is no need to worry.

But... please leave Konoha alone for a bit...

Pg 30 ----------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
...Will Konoha-sama be okay....?

Well, I'm sure she will return as if nothing happened by dinner.

>Panel 2
I sure hope so....

>Panel 3
At that time, I really should have realized it.

The deep sadness behind Konoha-sama's smile.

>Last Panel
That night,

Konoha-sama has gone to a faraway place that is beyond our reach.

Konoha-sama went missing...!? (Outro)

Mountain Village's Hotspring Valley of Autumn(The top Magazine Big Title)
Welcome to the famous 100 years old hot spring (The top Magazine smaller text)

A trip to the shopping district!

Konoha has been thinking of visiting other hot spring once in a while!

The happy Izumi family, they're going to go on a trip with everyone this time, but... (Intro Text)

>Panel 4
Konoha-sama, please don't get too excited and burst your divine power when we...

Konoha knows that, there is no need to worry!

>Panel 5
...Is this going to be okay~~?

>Last Panel
Kyuuuu...

Pg 03 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Um... Kyouko-sama.

Kyu? (text)

>Panel 2
Are you really going to be fine watching the house alone?

>Panel 3
Uh-huh....

After all... I will end up getting hungry....

>Panel 4
If that's the case, we can just bring a lot of box lunches.

>Panel 5
Do not ask for the impossible, Kyouko eats the share for over 20 people everyday.

If you bring all those box lunches, you obviously will cause problem to everyone!

>Panel 6
But, if we leave this be, that means Kyouko-sama won't ever be able to travel outside. // Don't you feel bad for her?

Kyuuuu...

Pg 04 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
There is nothing we can do, is there?

The problem is that Kyouko is a big eater whose mood will go sour whenever she gets hungry

>Panel 2
This could be a good opportunity.

After all, Kyouko's food expense is causing quite a strain on the Izumi family finances.

She should put some effort to cut back on the food!

>Panel 3+4
That sounds good!

Hahaha (Text)

It would be a big help to us if Kyouko-sama could halve her food expense.

>Last Panel
For the time being, how about we make her try it while we are on this trip?

No! // If she holds back on her appetite rashly, her power of pestilence will....

Pg 05 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1+2
....Be useful... // to the hotspring....

...Understood....

>Panel 3
I....

will hold back on the food by half....

>Panel 4
Ooh! Kyouko-sama is all fired up!

>Last Panel
...This sure makes one to have a bad feeling~~

I can only hope the house is still in one piece when we got back....

Pg 06 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Well then, we shall leave the house to you.

Please don't hold back yourself too much!

Have a safe trip....

Furthermore, just going by the count, those Magatsukami have caused countless calamities!

>Last Panel
Now, will you be able to cut your way through this crisis, Kyouko?

>Panel 5
Looks like that Konoha isn't here..... // The most terrible god of pestilence or whatnot, we can somehow deal with it if there's only one of them.

>Panel 2+3
The great evil god of madness who brought ruin to seven capitals,

Yasomagatsuhinokami!!

NOTE: literally translated to "Eighteen Evil/Sinful (Fire) Gods", Encyclopedia of Shinto
translates it as "Kami of Disorder". You might already know this, but "神-Kami"
doesn't exactly mean "god" or "The Almighty One" in Shinto. As I remember, I think
it's more akin to spirit or divine being. However, since it has been translated as "god"
from the beginning, I just went along with it. It feels kind of appropriate anyway (says
the one who knows nothing about Shinto). =p

Pg 16 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My my, the hot spring is suddenly reduced to nothing, now.

Who knows, Kyouko might have been blasted away as well♥

O-oh my goodness!

Kyouko-sama...

I hope she doesn't push herself too hard....

Now, please show us the crushed remains of Kyouko!

Pg 21 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Unscathed!?

W-why!?

What was crushed then, master's arms!?

Pg 22 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
With a forehead pooooke!?

>Panel 3
H-how could this be... // To think there's such difference in divine power...

>Panel 4
....This is not the true extent of Konoha's power....

Return to the world of the gods.....immediately...

>Panel 5
Damn it~~, don't think it will end just like this, ya hear!

We're sooo gonna bring an even stronger one!

Pg 23 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
....What do I do....

The hot spring... I have fix it...

>Panel 3
...But... I will have to eat a lot of food...

Even though... I just have decided to hold back on food...

No...

...I'm sorry...

I was just... really hungry....

Pg 25 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Honestly, you are such an useless glutton!

Very well then, Konoha shall compensate what you eat.

Because Konoha is the guardian god of the Izumi!

>Panel 4
No need to worry about it.

>Panel 5
Kyouko-sama is a benevolent god who cares about this hot spring.

We must at least provide food enough to make you satisfied,

right?

Pg 26 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
....Yep

From now on... I will try... even harder...

The greatest smile of Kyouko-sama's, I shall gladly give my life for you...! (Outro)

>Panel 2
Muh

>Panel 3
What is that!? Why are you pampering Kyouko!? // If that is how it is, Konoha shall eat more food as well!

Ah! You shouldn't eat the souvenir.

Be quiet!

...That immense divine power....

If we could lay our hands on that power....

This is not good~~. // The number of customers keeps decreasing here.

It might be better to start thinking about the hot spring reform.

The historical and traditional Izumi Hot Spring, (Intro Text)
always in financial difficulties. (Intro Text)

>Panel 3
Since the god of poverty has been staying here, won't the result be the same?

I believe we should do something about Konoha and the others first.

>Panel 4
Even if you told me that...

>Panel 5
Anyway, we have to weaken Konoha's power // I think it'd be better if we can somehow find Konoha's weakness.

Maybe we could have some specialists to exorcise her or something?

I'm not too optimistic about that~ // After all, Konoha-sama is powerful enough to punish even other gods.

And you said something about our house being haunted by spirits...

Quite.

There is a dreadful god of poverty, a fox incarnation, haunting this place.

The fact that this hot spring is poor and dull is due to that god of poverty.

Dull...

How perceptive! // As expected from a pro, you've seen through the problem already!

This is a good opportunity, Koutarou! We can have them try to exorcise this place!

....Will this be okay...?

If they really did exorcise her, then what will....

Pg 06 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
It's free anyway! We'll have them try it! // They might even be able to suppress Konoha-sama's divine power!

Hmm....

>Panel 2
Well then, I shall be borrowing this room to change my outfit.

Yes, go ahead! // We'll leave this matter to you!

>Panel 3
...Kuku...

>Panel 4
Fufufu... // It appears things will go smoothly this time, Miko-sama.

In a desperate situation, ones will seek help from anything.

>Panel 5
Pretending to exorcise this run-down hot spring, and then selling them fake charms. // Thus, abusing your popularity to earn some pocket money. // Miko-sama, you really are more dreadful than evil spirits!

Hah!

It's their fault for believing in curse!

Pg 07 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Thanks to the recent recession, the income from fortune-telling has decreased. // I have to do some side job if I want to buy jewelries I fancy.

Even this run-down hot spring should have enough money to buy at least a single ring.

>Panel 5
Is it you!?

Konoha-tan (Text on Konoha's shirt)

Are you the fool who spoke of exorcising Konoha!?

>Panel 6
...Haa?

Pg 08 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>panel 1
Eh? Um...

Who are you?

>panel 2
This person here is our god of pov... I mean, our guardian god!

>panel 3
What? Could this be some sort of possession by a fox spirit?

So it seems...

>panel 4
This is quite troublesome, but... you have appeared I see....

>panel 5
You intend to exorcise Konoha as a god of poverty, do you not?

If you failed to exorcise Konoha, that would mean Konoha is not a god of poverty!

>panel 6
Come!

Go ahead and try to exorcise Konoha!

Pg 09 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
What shall we do?

Hmph, I don't care about a single weird girl or whatever.

>Panel 2
All I have to do is to make them see as if I have successfully exorcised her.

>Panel 3
Very well!

I shall exorcise the god of poverty that possesses that girl!

>Panel 4 (I went with the furigana of that "love" kanji)
The god of poverty's weakness! It overflows within me! That is---

LOVE POWER!!

>Panel 5
Evil spirit who preys upon the innocents!

I shall send you to the realm of the dead with my power!

Pg 10 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Away with you, evil spirit!!

>Panel 3
Kyaaaaah!?

>Panel 4
It seems impossible after all.

What the heck? That's pretty useless for a famous spirit medium.

>Panel 5
Kuh.... What happened here!?

It's a trick! They're trying to send us home by threatening us with a trick!

>Panel 6
What is the matter? // Come, exorcise Konoha quickly.

>Last Panel
Hmph! // Such trick is nothing before the power of love!

Pg 11 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Trick? // Konoha uses no trickery.

>Panel 2
There.

>Panel 3
Do they look like a trick to you?

>Panel 4
WHA!?

Pg 12 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
What the heck are these!?

Are they really the real things!?

>Panel 2
Well, please put a little more effort to it!

>Panel 3
Are you kidding me!!?

Like hell I'm going to fight these monsters!

>Panel 5
Fufufu... where could you be going now?

Konoha is still quite lively here, you see?

>Page 6
If you cannot exorcise Konoha,

then Konoha shall give you divine punishment!

Pg 13 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Come!

Show Konoha that you can exorcise her in a swift!

>Panel 2
Eeeek!

>Panel 4
Nuu!?

>Panel 5
Ugh, uuh!!

>Last Panel
Konoha-sama!?

Pg 14 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
W-what is that shining stone!? // Konoha's power is escaping from her....

>Panel 2
Shining stone...?

Did she mean this ring!?

>Panel 3
Could that stone be a secret weapon to exterminate god of poverty!?

Eh!? Uh.... this is just a normal diamond, though....

>Panel 4
I see!

>Panel 5
Being a god of poverty, Konoha is weak to things like jewel or any other kinds of expensive things!

There wasn't any expensive thing here, that's why we didn't realize it!

Pg 15 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I see, so that's how it is!

>Panel 2
Fufu....

>Panel 3
Exactly!

Didn't I told you that I already know the god of poverty's weakness!?

>Panel 4
Know the power of the bourgeois!

>Panel 5
Fufufu, Am I glad I always bring my jewelry collection with me!

Who would have that Miko-sama's crooked side job would actually be useful at a time like this!

>Panel 6+7
Away with you, evil spirit!!

Perish, god of poverty!!

Pg 16 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
Nuoh!

>Panel 3
Kuaaah!!

>Panel 4
Konoha-sama!

>Panel 5
Ooh! It's working!!

Pg 17 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
I feel bad for Konoha-sama the guardian god, // but it will be more peaceful here if Konoha-sama turned back to stone!

Our chance has finally arriiiived!

>Panel 2
Please return to heaven for the sake of the hot spring!!

Uhahaha (text right above the gramps)

Bastard! Senile oldman!

A human like you is just so...!!

>Panel 3
Kuh!

>Panel 4
Stop it!

You guys are hurting Konoha-sama!

>Panel 5
We're doing it because of exactly that!

Eeei! // Don't get in our way, Koutarou!!

Peh peh (gramps text)

Pg 18 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Hurting the kind Konoha-sama who has been protecting our home,

I will never forgive that!!

>Panel 2
Ooh, Koutarou.

You are the one and only ally of Konoha.

I shall give you sweet pastry later.

>Panel 3
Just what is he trying to do!?

He's been possessed! That Koutarou!

>Panel 4
Konoha-sama will recover at this rate!

Can't we do something about him!?

>Panel 5
Ooh! That's right! // I know a good way to do that!

Pg 19 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Please come here for a bit!

>Panel 2
If we can shut Koutarou up, then we can weaken Konoha-sama! // For that, we---

>Panel 3
WHA!?

>Panel 4
What the heck is that!?

There's no way I can do that!

We have no choice! // If we keep going like this, we will get punished!

>Panel 5+6
Uuuh....

Fine then!

>Panel 7
I just have to do it, right!!?

Pg 20 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Foolish boy who is possessed by evil spirit!

Behold!

This is the ultimate weapon that will destroy the god of poverty!

>Panel 2 (the idea is basically lingerie+jewelry, the kanji for "Linge-welry" is "Jewel Underwear")
"Super Luxurious Linge-welry Armor"!!

Pg 21 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
Ah! Hey!

>Panel 3
Uwah!? How come I'm wearing one, too!?

Noooow! Put an end to her by using that underweeeear!!

>Panel 4
Eeei!!

I can only charge forward right now!!

>Panel 5
Taaaah!!

>Last Panel
Muu!!

That underwear!

Pg 22 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 2
The world's number one gorgeous goddess who looks the most befitting in jewelry!

That title is now Konoha's!

>Panel 4 + 5
Mufu--- (text)

....Eh?

>Panel 6
...Um...could it be that....

>Panel 7
you are feeling just fine?

Feeling fine indeed! // This attire feels quite provocatively comfortable.

Pg 23 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
Did you think that Konoha, the celebrity goddess, fears jewelry!? // You fool!

>Panel 2
Konoha sensed bad karma coming out from you. // You were taking advantage on people's weakness to gain wealth, did you not? // Konoha has seen through all that!

>Panel 3
However, giving a conspicuous punishment to a celebrity such as you would be unfavorable for this hot spring's popularity. // That is why Konoha merely played a trick on you.

Your jewelries have been redeemed as wealth fortune.

>Panel 4
Wha...

>panel 5
Well then, Konoha shall let you go for today.

However, if you were to commit more evil deed such as this again---

Pg 24 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
At that time,

you shall receive divine punishment that will make you wish for death instead!

>Panel 3
Ooh, that is right!

Konoha shall show you how terrible her punishment is.

>Panel 4
Of course,

by using the fool who dared to betray and throw jewelry at Konoha!

Pg 25 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
UGYAAAAAH!!

>Panel 2
UWAAAH!!

>Panel 3
A-a person got turned into a goat poo!

Kyaaaah!!

>Panel 4
Fumu.

This should be enough to teach them.

>Panel 5
Uuumu. // In the end, there's nothing that could make Konoha scared, is there?

>Last Panel
What nonsense are you speaking of?! Even Konoha has something that she fears!

Pg 26 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Panel 1
The thing that Konoha fears, you see,

>Panel 2
is Konoha's miracle body-

that looks beyond perfect in this linge-welry!!

>Panel 4
Okay, time to work, time to work...

You're right.

Mu!?

>Panel 5
Heeeey! What is with that tired response!?

Even though Konoha looks so perfect in this attire!?

Don't pull up the underwear!

Huh? // Where did Jii-chan go!?

>Panel 6 (NOTE: sorry, can't see the whole line on the TV)
This dropping here! It is actually a human!

Ah, there he is!

She sure is tough.

The goat-poo-gramps, finally making his debut on TV. (outro)
