This might actually be a wrong section since this is a first work i've tried to translate till the end, and most likely i failed big time since i'm still in the middle of learning the basics (or at least that is what i think).
I let myself quite a lot of freedom but i think thats mainly due to my non-proficiency in English and lack of experiences -.-;;
(under spoiler some informations if you think that manga pages are important for the said to be correctly understood)
I've had some problems in full understanding of some lines, but most of the time it was a problem to give them a proper form in English. Proofreading (the flow of English) will be done by a friend of mine, but i'd really like to confirm if my translations is at least to some point accurate.
First short text is comment from mangaka, the rest are manga pages. The text in [] are thoughts bubbles, and > means that said is in small font outside of the bubble. The rest of the text are Shiros' thoughts.
The spaces in text indicate there is where the line is broken and new line indicates new group of words (i'm saying this merely because i have a feeling mangaka played with words to some extant)
I'd really like to translated 彼のことだから 暴れるかも? But i didn't know if i should understand the said as i've translated it or as because it's about him he might find out about this(ie. the filing Shiro has) - kinda complicated xD.
Also the "偶然みた。白昼夢みたいな関係" i think its meant more as a pure fact than actual Shiro thoughts. The line itself is place in between panels surrounded by nothing while the rest of the thought are in panels, even though half of them are empty.
Also, i know that last line might not be correct, but i did not want to have 2 identical lines. Also remember, the mangaka play of words - both lines already appeared before in the text (in extended version though :P)
Anyway, any kind of corrections or comments are highly appreciated.

This is from extra booklet that comes with SEX POSTOLS ova lit. edition (no worries, nothing "dirty" on those 4 pages) and deals with character named Shiro, mainly his thought only.
Nothing happens what so ever on this 4 pages so seeing them will not help you understand the lines, however previous knowledge of the story might help.
So here is the shorty summery that i think might be necessary to understand whats going on:
Yonekuni is a guy who absolutely despises anybody of male sex. And Shiro is a guy who feel in love with Yonekuni after seeing him swim.
Because of reasons unique to Sex Pistols world Yonkuni cannot maintain his body temperature well which makes him seek human warmth, female only (preferably several at a time). However he developed a habit, which he's not aware of, to seek Shiro (again because of reasons unique to Sex Pistols world) when maintaining body temperature gets ruff - usually on the rainy days. The ketch is that Shiro is keeping this a secret from him. Of course later he finds out but this 4 pages deal with Shiros though before long before Yonekuni found out about it.
And that should be it.

I'm sure on the end he'd end up hating himself for this.

Even so I still think that's ok.
