Eyeshield 21 323

It's past 2AM, I'm 300km away from home, on the laptop of my sister-in-law, asking myself why I am so far away from my computer and its hentai games marvels, but I still managed to get this translation to you \o/ (I had to download firefox in order to post it >.>)

Well, because I did this translation on an unfamiliar environment and I just can't get used to laptops' keyboards, I hope I didn't make too many typos. In either case, enjoy this quite good chapter~

Ah, and Kuroko's translation will be hopefully out around the same time tomorrow^^

Eyeshield 21 chapter 323

Page 01

Narration : Patrick Spencer, 16 years old
Narration : Alias Panther.
Middle : One hundred millionth of history… !!
Narration : A man in 100 millions that broke through the speed of light.
Narration : Carrying natural springs only a black man could possess.
323rd Down : Double Ace Runners

Page 02

Narration : Separated from his parents through divorce and death,
Narration : From a poor family,
Narration : And on top of what was the very picture of a poor environment,
Narration : The harsh treatment he got from the coach Apollo.

Panther : Nishishi, it’s alright!
Panther : Just the fact I might play American football someday is fun.
Panther : Apollo-san will definitely
Panther : acknowledge me one day…!

Narration : indeed, during the match against Deimon,
Narration : He melted the heart of the former NFL player Apollo,
Narration : Who then coached him thoroughly, as if he was betting his whole carrier on him,
Narration : And he rose to stardom in an instant.

Page 03

Yamato : And then, despite being only in first year of high school,
Yamato : He became a top runner of the high school American football world
Yamato : An existence that could rival his senior Clifford…!

Someone : Woooh, they’re switching offense and defense!
Someone : It’s finally time for America’s offense!
Someone : The control tower is of course...

Someone : The royal heir
Someone : Clifford D. Lewis!
Girls : Kyaaaaaa!

Hiruma (small text) : kekeke...

Announcer : What kind of offense will he show us
Announcer : in his double ace runner tag with panther!?
Announcer : Let’s watch carefully...!!

Page 04

Sena : Fast...
Sena : That fast...

Panther : Nishishi, Sena!
Panther : the first round is my win! (small text : barely, though...)

Clifford : Panther!!
Panther : Ah, sorry!
Panther : Damn, of course.
Panther : If I say this kind of stuff, the referee will be angry.
Panther : “Don’t taunt the opponent!” or things like that.

Clifford : You’re not nearly good enough at taunting.
Clifford : Don’t say stuff like you barely made it.
Panther : Ohoooo, that!?
Panther : But it’s the truth, it was really quite...
Clifford : it doesn’t matter, leave a strong impression!
Clifford : Is there a point if a trump card doesn’t show its strength to the enemy?

Announcer : Well then, the Japanese team is switching members as well.
Announcer : The defense team is getting on the field!

Page 05

Shin : Kobayakawa Sena.

Shin : I’ve had a one-on-one match
Shin : with Patrick Spencer before

Shin : In the woods around mount Fuji.
Sena : Why in that place!?
Sakuraba : It was a troublesome event, really...

Shin : At the time, just like you,
Shin : he was a raw diamond, still unprocessed.
Shin : His speed was at the top level, but,
Shin : He had no running techniques or whatever.
Shin : He simply followed the shortest route possible, acting on instincts.

Shin : If the coaching of Leonard Apollo
Shin : had allowed him to perfectly conquer that weak point, then...

Shin : Of course, though,
Shin : the strength I have right now
Shin : isn’t the same I had at the time either.

Page 06

Shin : I will stop
Shin : Patrick Spencer...!

Panther : Cliffooord~
Panther : Do you have a moment, Clifford-sensei~
Panther : I have favor to ask you, senpai.
Clifford : What, get to the point.

Panther : Isn’t it what you said yesterday night?
Panther : “For the first play, I’ll make a big play that Hiruma definitely can’t copy.”
Panther : I wonder if you couldn’t forget that and let me go with the ball?

Page 07

Panther : With my run,
Panther : A one-on-one against Shin.
Panther : I want to go
Panther : Against the strongest linebacker...!

Panther : Aaaah, wait, the world’s strongest linebacker is of course Tatanka, right!?
Panther : I just meant, for me, as a rival from Japan I respect...

Tatanka : Either way... I can’t imagine how such a small man as that Shin
Tatanka : could be a worthy opponent for you, Panther.

Clifford : yeah.
Clifford : Alright.
Clifford : Go against Shin head-on.
Panther : Really!?
Panther : As expected from you, Clifford, you understood me!
Panther : I’ll treat you to a hotdog next time!

Announcer : Well then! It’s the beginning of the American all-star’s offense!
Announcer : What will be the first hand played by
Announcer : The control tower Clifford-kun...!?

Page 08-09 (spread)

Someone : gaaaaaah!
Announcer : Thanks to his invincible power, Mr Don
Announcer : is breaking through the wall created by Ootawara and Gaou!

Announcer : And in that opening
Announcer : with a dash that surpasses the speed of light,
Announcer : Panther is heading head-on for Shin!

Shin : Come
Shin : Patrick spencer...!

Page 10

Panther : Clifford said until the end
Panther : that he’d give it to me...
Panther : I’m not treating him to a hotdog anymore...

Shin : He only acted like he was handing the ball to Panther
Shin : and Clifford is still carrying it
Shin : hiding behind Don’s huge body
Shin : in order to make it hard to see...

Sena : it’s exactly the same trick play
Sena : that Hiruma-san
Sena : Did in the beginning...!

Hiruma : bastard...

Page 11

Clifford : the trick is the same... I’ll add to it
Clifford : A play you definitely can’t do
Clifford : Brat.

Someone : Oooh, the quarterback Clifford
Someone : is running himself to the right side!

Shin : fast!!

Hera : he’s the number one quarterback of America
Hera : and has the same speed as Sena!
Hera : it should be against the rules...!

Someone : the defense of japan
Someone : has gathered to stop Panther who acted as a decoy!
Someone : This is bad
Someone : Clifford will go through...!

Page 12

Agon : Don’t take me lightly, trash.

Yamabushi : Agon!!
Sena : san!

Someone : He reacted to Clifford’s run
Someone : and with his god-speed impulse...
Someone : He cornered him...!

Banba : that guy is a monster...
Banba : If only he didn’t have that personality...
Hiruma : kekeke, I told you, right?
Hiruma : It’s better to have this fucking dread as an ally than as an enemy.

Page 13

Agon : This movement... A pass?
Agon : Aah?? While running at the speed of light
Agon : there’s no way you can throw a decent pass, right? Are you stupid, trash?

Ikkyuu : there’s no problem here either.
Ikkyuu : I’m perfectly marking the receiver
Ikkyuu : with my backward run, Agon-san.

Agon : Die, trash.

Page 14-15 (spread)

Clifford : I don’t even need to pay attention
Clifford : To guys like you.

Page 16

Ikkyuu : ... this
Ikkyuu : pass...!!
Ikkyuu : Fast...

Shin : With the help of his light speed run
Shin : A super high speed
Shin : long pass...!!

Hera : With the stupidly huge ball we use in American football
Hera : he made a laser beam
Hera : just like Ichirou’s...!
(T/N : As in Ichirou Suzuki, world famous baseball player and pretty much the god of anyone Japanese)

Page 17

Announcer : Long pass
Announcer : complete!!
Girls : Kyaaaaa Clifford!!

Clifford : If we’re both the same kind of trickster
Clifford : then the one with the strongest cards will win.

Clifford : Show me.
Clifford : Just like in that poker game
Clifford : how you’ll fight by bluffing and reading my hands,
Clifford : brat.

Page 18

Someone : it’s useless!
Someone : Whether it’s passes or run...
Someone : They can’t stop Clifford!!

Someone : touch
Someone : Down!!

Announcer : As expected, the first points go to the pentagram,
Announcer : to the American all-star!!

Page 19

Clifford : I don’t even need to pay attention
Clifford : To guys like you.

Clifford : I don’t even need to pay attention
Clifford : To guys like you.

Clifford : I don’t even need to pay attention
Clifford : To guys like you.
Someone : Did he really make that kind of annoying face!?

Agon : Hey, gorilla trash.
Agon : I don’t want a gorilla like you to lend me a hand, but...

Agon : I wanted to crush that Mr Don too but
Agon : I’ll give him to you.
Agon : that’s why you have to take him down no matter what.
Agon : Destroy America’s line.

Left : Enraged thunderbolt!!
(Xophien’s random note : literally enraged Kongou, the name of the Kongou brothers being the Japanese name for a vajra (I suggest you to wiki it) and since it can also mean diamond or thunderbolt, I went for the latter since it fitted better)

Agon : I’ll blitz through that hole
Agon : And kill Clifford...!!
Gaou : leave it to me!
