Gakuen Babysitters 1

Gakuen Babysitters

T/N: I have a rule to leave the Japanese family terms as they are if they are being used instead of names. For example, I will use brother if Ryuuichi is saying ‘This is my brother’ but if Kotarou is calling Ryuuichi, he calls him Oniichan so I will use that. They call the chairman ‘obaasan’ which is a term for an old lady that also means grandma. Also ‘mum’ is not a spelling error.

I’m looking for someone to scanlate this so if you are interested please contact me!

R- Um… They said to go to the chairman’s office beyond the estate…
R- That way I guess
R- Still this school is huge

04
R- Are you tired Kotarou? Can you keep walking?
Sfx- nod
R- Which is it…?
R- I guess I phrased it badly
R- Hup
R- We’re almost there

05
R- Don’t worry Kotarou
R- The chairman here offered to take us, two complete strangers, into her home and look after us. I’m sure she’s a kind person
R- So we have to be sure to thank her properly
R- My parents, who were always the carefree type and often away from home
R- Died in a plane crash, so now they really aren’t coming home anymore
R- We were confused and still unable to fully comprehend what had happened
R- Then a person who had lost her son and his wife in the same accident offered to become our guardian
S- I’ve come as a representative
R- This is the first time we’ll meet face to face, I have to greet her and give her my condolences

07
K- Demon La-
R- S, sorry, I walked here from the station with my brother
R- I… I’m Kashima Ryuuichi, this is my brother Kotarou
T/N: He starts to say ‘ore’ which is an informal masculine work for I, but switches to boku, a more polite masculine term
C- I already know your names
C- Dragon and Tiger, you were given quite strong names weren’t you?
T/N: The Ryuu from Ryuuichi means dragon, and the Ko from Kotarou means tiger
R- Ah
R- Um, for all the trouble you’ve taken I’d truly like to-
C- Stop with the formal greetings, I called you here as replacements for my son, not out of sympathy
R- Huh…?
C- I hear you’ve looked after this kid since he was a baby?
R- Yes
R- Our parents were away a lot
C- So you know how to change diapers and give milk?
R- Yes??
C- Good

08
C- Alright then, Saikawa take these two to the school day care room
S- Understood
C- In this world everything is give and take
C- Those who don’t work don’t eat!!
C- In return for me caring for you until you are an adult
C- You will spend all your time outside of lessons working as this school’s babysitter

09
C- If you understand then hurry up and go!!
C- I’m busy!!
R- Eh
R- Um
S- Well then, I shall guide you
R- Ah…
R- Okay…
R- I didn’t even thank her or anything
R- I wonder if we aren’t really welcome here
K- Demon lady
R- Hey now
S- Ryuuichi-sama, Kotarou-sama
K- We cannot prepare a car for you so please
R- What!?
S- It’s a joke
h/w- We won’t go so far for you so please walk by yourselves
h/w- I see
R- I… I wonder if he was trying to comfort us

10
R- Saikawa-san
R- Does obaasan have any grandchildren?
S- No
S- Because the two who passed away had no children
S- The chairman no longer has any family
R- Um, so this babysitting thing
S- Here

S- The ones we are leaving to you are the children of this school’s teachers
S- This facility was established for the mothers among our staff but the budget wouldn’t cover it and we don’t have enough people
h/w- Kotarou will also be looked after here
S- So the chairman’s son and his wife tried to get the students to help out by establishing something like a babysitting club
h/w- Middle School Students
Looking after the teacher’s kids for a club activity!?
Who’d join that club?
High School Students
No way
Babysitting Club
S- Unfortunately we couldn’t gather enough students so it never happened
R- So she called us here so we could make that club
S- Yes, sorry you kinda won the poverty lottery

12
R- No!! As the first member of the club, I’ll work hard!!
R- Please tell obaasan we are very grateful to her for bringing us here
R- Um?
S- Sorry, I was very moved by your admirable form
S- I must excuse myself here, was that explanation enough?
R- Ah, yes
S- Alright then
S- I pray for your good fortune

13
K- Ooh
R- Come on Kotarou wake up
R- We have to make a proper greeting this time
R- I’m used to looking after Kotarou; I can be a proper babysitter

U- Ah
U- I heard
h/w- You’re the poor guy who has to be a babysitter for a club activity
U- Ryuunosuke-kun and Torakichi-kun right (T/N: The reason Kotarou became Torakichi is because the kanji for tiger (in Kotarou, ‘Ko’) is also read as ‘Tora’)

H- I’ll be right back
R- Even though I knew that
R- He pretends to be alright even when he’s not

29
R- Why
R- Did I just leave him?
D- its most likely a fever from the change in environment
D- He’s sleeping well now, if he rests then the fever will go right away, no need to worry
