No love for Koko Hekmatyar? The Goddess of Information! Wanted to nominate Balalaika too, but to me, Koko comes first!

Btw, instead of SSE or ENE, is it wise to translate 巳丙 and 寅甲 as "Fire Snake/Snake Fire direction" and "Wood Tiger/Tiger Wood direction" respectively? I thought I should try to convey its "old" feeling. (Based from here)

What is 大逸壁, 巳丙 and 寅甲? What kind of wall/barrier is 大逸壁? For 巳丙 and 寅甲, someone told me they are related to the Chinese sexagenary cycle. However, if so, I'm not sure about the significance of reversing the characters and how to translate it. Last panel Panel 3-4 As for the...

I think you're on the right track for the 2nd line. Basically, the one who says the line believes that he's right about the other character running away without even trying.

Looks like I missed quite a bit on the 2nd part.... For the poem, does it flow better if I tweak it a bit? Like this? Place a simple koto Amidst this brightness Unable to endure the beauty of autumn The koto will begin to sing silently or is the previous one(after the revision)...

Can I request a translation check please? The first one is a poem (part of the poem?) by Yagi Juukichi. Having no poetic sense, I just translated as it is. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- この明るさのなかへ ひとつの素朴な琴をおけば 秋の美しさに耐えかね 琴は静かに鳴りいだすだろう...
