First translation attempt, Hyde and Closer 36+37
I don't know if these chapters are available by themselves, but they're the last two in volume 4, hosted on MH
here.
Some of the points that I'm concerned about are the window guy's laugh, which is a fufufu/huhuhu, and I wasn't sure how to romanize that without resorting to "heh." Also, towards the end of 36 when Hyde repeats his little speech over the next page, I want to think that it's just dramatic repetition that doesn't translate well, but I can't help wondering if I'm missing something because it stands out so much?
Also, it could be argued that instead of narration the omake text is meant to be first person, and in fact that's probably true, but I figured childish narration would be a better fit.
Anyway, first translation, criticism appreciated. Without further ado (numbered not by file number but by page number within the chapter, panels numbered
Right/
Left 1,2,3, in the order they would be read) :
~Volume 4 Chapter 36~
C36 TITLE
"What're you lookin at?!"
"Y-y-y-yikes!" <sfx: shiver shiver>
[Chapter 36: Samsara 3]
C36P1
R1 "That girl's trivial malice, after these tens of thousands of years, festered and grew" "And became the ultimate magical weapon, 'Resentment'."
R2 "So you're sayin' that all along, your plan was to use that rotten egg"
R3 "And lay a killin' curse on all of mankind?!"
C36P2
R1 "Hm hm hm.." "That's right, my furry little friend."
R2 "However, there was one hitch to my plan" "Alyseid Closer managed to shut me out"
R3 "In order to keep Resentment from hatching, he used himself as a tool" "and created a powerful barrier around Kilimanjaro*"
R4 "In the six years since then," "He has had not a moment of rest, nor food or drink" "and still continues to guard that land"
C36P3
R1 "Now, however, both his body and soul are tiring" "And though he should have surpassed his limits as a magician long ago" "I had exhausted all my options in trying," "and still could not break through Alyseid Closer's barrier."
R2 "Truly, a man who deserves to be called" "The King of the Magicians*"
R3 "B-but.. That means that Grandpa.." "All this time, all alone, he was.."
R4 "He was protecting us!!" <jiwa: Tearing>
V4P157 R1 "G-Grandpa..." <uu uu: sob sob>
C36P4
R2 "Just like the old coot..."
R3 "At any rate, I sat back and simply bided my time" "and after the passing of these six years, I noticed you, like a guiding star."
R4 "And it was then that I hit upon a splendid plan" "to drag that old man out of his cave, without needing to sully my own hands"
R5 "After all, even King Closer is still only human" "It stands to reason that if magicians the world over came after the head of his precious grandson," "he'd have no choice but to take a stand!"
R6 "To draw out that senile old fool," "there was no better bait than yourself!!"
C36P5
R1 "...." "...no.."
R2 "However, the old man still had another trick up his sleeve" "And that was you," "Hyde"
R3 "Thanks to your appearence, young Closer gained a solid command of the magician's trade" "furthermore, you're already gathering companions willing to fight by your side."
R4 "To be quite frank, things simply haven't been going quite according to plan" "and I can't hide my frustration any longer"
R5 "...Shut up" (small letters, he's still kind of muttering)
R6 "So, in order to capture your attention today" "I've graced you with my own presence."
R7 "I'm quite sure if I slaughter your friends here" "and have your foot hand-delivered" "Alyseid Closer might sit up and take notice as well, you see."
C36P6
R1 "CUT THE CRAP!!!" <go: RAAA>
R2 "Why the hell would you kill everyone off anyway?!" "I don't what your problem is with humanity, but just for that.."
R3 "You'd torment Grandpa!!" "You'd hurt my friends!!"
R4 "You'd manipulate kids like Enrique," "use them and throw them away!!"
R5 "And you say you're just getting started?!" <zuru: zzip>
C36P7
R1 "Then right here, right now we're putting an end to you" "And everything else!!!" [TEXAS CHAINSAW] <dododo:Rrrm, vrrroom>
R2 "My," "got your blood boiling, have you?" "But if spirit's all you have..."
R3 "Then you can't beat me." "...Punch." <"SNIP SNIP">
R4 "This time, I think I'll give you a taste of your own technique." <nyogi: goosh>
C36P8
R1 "Cut, Slash, KILL!!" [MURDER RIDE SHOW]
R2 "That's the same" "kind of magic as Hyde's..."
R3 "Slice n Dice.." "NOT ENOUGH KILLING!!" <da: zoom>
R4 "Hyde!!!" "Here he comes!!!"
C36P9
R1 <gaaaaan: screeee>
R2 "Killll"
R3 <mishi mishi: creeaaak, groan>
C36P10
R1 "DiedieDIEE!!!" <dogaan:ker-boom>
R2 "Hyde!!"
R3 "Hmph" <gara: crumble>
R4 "No problem!!" "We're just gettin' started"
R5 "No way.." "Hyde's fueled by Grandpa's magic" "And he.." "he still lost in a power struggle?!"
R6 "Hm hm.." "Do pardon the late introduction." "This fellow's name is Punch."
C36P11
R1 "Of course you've heard of the maniacal serial killer, Jack The Ripper? In Nineteenth century England, he cut five poor souls to ribbons, but managed to evade the police and was never arrested. But of course, that's to be expected, as Jack was more mannequin than man..."
"For you see, the one they call 'Jack' was actually our little Punch all along."
R2 "The magician who created Punch was accused of being a spy during the war, and was violently tortured and interrogated"
"On top of that, it was decided he should be made an example of, and his family was gunned down," "even the women and children..."
R3 "For the sake of vengeance, that man, barely clinging to this mortal coil," "breathed his last, and in doing so breathed life into another."
"For he tore out his own heart to use as Punch's core."
R4 "Even after completing his master's revenge, Punch's hatred remained strong as ever" "and the curse giving him it's power is every bit as potent as it ever was."
"As you can see, his passion hasn't abated all these years later." "And he's only one of my darling wards..."
C36P12
R1 "In other words, even after we're done slapping around his sock puppet," "The Watchman isn't risking any kind of danger..."
R2 "But of course, as long as I have a choice"
"I'm not the kind of man who would foolishly rely on such risky magic when curses are involved, you see" "heh heh.."
R3 "How low.." "Are you really satisfied just sitting back like that?!"
R4 "All of one man's magical power, or rather, his life energy, along with his"
"aggregate resentment and hate, was all instilled into Punch"
R5 "It's only to be expected that even the legendary Alastair's power" "still can't match him"
R7 "Hyde!"
C36P13
R1 "Over here!" "The Texas Chainsaw!"
R2 "...I gotcha!" "But you'd better not blink, boyo!!" <buo: woosh>
R3 "Catch!!!" <gaaan, bakun: claaaang, glomp>
R4 "..?!" "What are you?!"
R5 "If just one didn't have enough power" <"Cut you!!"> <da: dash>
R6 "We'll try TWO!!!" <meki, mishi: crik, creek>
C36P14
R1 "RELEASE!!!" <goshaa: ker-shlaam>
R4 "Alright! We got this!!" "Now, it's just that last pair of scissors.."
C36P15
R1 "My phone.." "The battery's dead?!!" [Please recharge]
R2 "Crap.." "Taking Hyde's attack just now must have"
"used up too much juice..."
R3 "....." "I'm not done yet!"
"I've still got my barrier stones left, and.."
R4 "And as long as it's him.."
"As long as it's this guy," "I won't.. I CAN'T lose!!"
R5 "THERE'S NO WAY"
"WE CAN GIVE UP NOW!!!"
C36P16
R4 "Looks like" "it's okay now.."
R5 "Shun, my boy.."
R6 "When I first met you, you were just some soft, troublesome whelp, and it was up to me to look after you"
"But you've become a fine man" <za: Shff>
R7 "These last months together..." "they weren't half bad"
C36P17
R1 "Hyde?"
R2 "C'mon now" "There's no need to worry, my boy" <goo: Rrrm>
R4 "Because I'm here to protect you"
"No matter if it costs me my own life." <GOOOOO: Boooosh>
(Note to the editors: If you want to repeat the dialogue that's fine too, but if you use my version below, please stick a note in the margins or (perferably) at the end/on the credits page)
{TL NOTE: This page is obviously next sequentially, but the dialogue is the -exact- same as the previous page. Probably supposed to be dramatic but I don't think it translates well so I punched it up.}
C36P18
R1 "That's right, you were nothing but trouble, but now you're growing up.." "A fellow to do me proud"
R2 "And livin' with you and yours.." "wasn't half bad at all"
"Um.. Hyde?"
R3 "So don't you fret, Shun my boy..."
R4 "Because whatever happens to this old bear.." "no one's gonna lay a finger on ya."

~chapter 37~
C37 TITLE [Chapter 37: Samsara 4]
C37P1
R3 "The.. The Texas Chainsaw's aura..!"
R4 "It's like it wasn't there before, but now.."
"It's huge?!"
R5 "Hyde, what's.."
R6 "Say now, Shun my boy... With the school building getting all busted up like this, I imagine you'll be getting time off from school, right?
"Huh..?"
C37P2
R1 "Come on now, cheer up! It's a real godsend, ya know? Won't have to listen to any boring classes for a while."
"So let's hurry up and put this two-bit henchman out of our misery," "and we'll go home together and take it easy. Whaddaya say there, Boyo?"
R2 "Ha.. haha.." "Yeah!"
R3 "Phew.. Hyde sounds just as confident as always"
"But for a second there... Somehow, I've still got a really bad feeling about this.."
R4 "More cutting.." <da: zoom>
"More KILLIIIING!!"
R5 "Hyde! Watch out!"
R6 <buo: Voosh>
C37P3
R1 <Dogaaaan: Klaaaang>
R2 <Gishi gishi: Creaaak, groan>
R3 "-ill?"
R4 "They're matched in power?" "But he knocked Hyde away just a minute ago!"
R5 "That's..!"
C37P4
R1 "Well, now" "It seems you've given up on conserving your power, Hyde."
R2 "Or perhaps you've been left with no choice but to wring out every last drop of strength you've got left..." <girigiri: straining>
R3 ".. Conserving?!"
R4 "Oh ho! Don't tell me.." "Young Closer, you really haven't heard anything at all from Alyseid or Hyde, have you! <gaan: Claang>
R5 "When it comes to animating magical dolls, there are normally two methods,"
"Which means that those dolls are divided into two predominant types"
R6 "The first is what's called 'Consent type'"
"A magician with this type of doll controls them by means of emitting their own magic power"
R7 "The weak point of this type is that if the magician's will were to falter, the doll's source of magical power would be cut off, and they'd be helpless"
"By and large, this type makes up the majority of most magic dolls"
C37P5
R1 "However, dolls like Hyde and Punch"
"are impossible to create for all but those with the most masterful command of their magic power"
R2 "They are known as 'Battery' types."
R3 "Battery?" "You mean.."
R4 "Battery type dolls, just as the name suggests, are supplied by their creator with a limited amount of magic power"
"The doll then is able to move and act by spending those reserves of power"
R5 "In other words, this means"
"that Hyde's power is finite"
R6 "Hyde.." "Is that really.."
R7 "Hm hm hm.. Now, how many magicians have you two fought with up by now?"
"Seven? Or was it eight.."
R8 "Even if it was the esteemed Closer, King of Magicians, if you think about the magic reserves from being empowered only once.."
"Hyde's remaining power must be drawing quite close to zero, don't you agree?
C37P6
R1 "It seems that Hyde has finally come to understand that if he continued to use his power conservatively, he wouldn't be able to win here"
R2 "So of course he plans to match Punch"
"by using all his power at once"
R3 "That.."
"Can't be!!"
R4 "Why wouldn't you tell me"
"About something as important as this?! What the hell, Hyde!"
R5 "Why wouldn't you just let me worry about it a little?!"
R6 "You're always acting cool and standing alone.." "But this isn't fair!!"
C37P7
R1 "There's still so much I want to say.."
"And so much to ask about!!"
R2 <gaaan:claang>
R3 "I thought.." "I was sure we'd be together much longer than this"
R5 "If this goes on.. Just the thought of not seeing you again.."
"I can't take it, Hyde!!!"
R6 <buo: voosh>
C37P8
R1 <gaaaaan:ka-laaang>
R2 "Hyde was.." "Knocked back?!!"
R3 "It seems like you've finally reached your limit"
"But really, how unfortunate. Even though you risked your life wringing out the last of your power..."
R4 "In the end, you still lost out to Punch's strength"
"Damn.." "Sorry, Boyo..." <ze: huff>
R5 "It looks like.." "this is it..."
R6 "H-" "HYYYYYYDE!!!"
R7 <ni: grin>
C37P9
R1 "HA! Gotcha!" <gooa: BOOSH>
R4 "What?!"
R5 "Who the hell's at their limit, hah?!"
"Ya ain't even had a taste of the old man's magic!"
R6 "I was just matchin' the puppet here, and it looks like"
"even that much made him sweat a bit, so now I'll say.."
C37P10
R1 "So long!" <Dogu-sha: KER-SLICE>
C37P11
R1 "Cu.. Cuttiiiing!!"<bakiin: shatter>
R2 "Impossible!! You still had that kind of power?!"
"Just how much magic did that old fool enchant you with?!"
R3 "H-Hyde?" "Really now.."
R4 "Didn't I say we'd be going back together?" "Shun, my boy, it's still a hundred years too early"
"For me to be running out of steam!"
R5 "Heh.."
R6 "Man, thank god!!" "You had me going! I really believed" <ta ta: tap tap, running>
R7 "That this would be the last time I saw..."
R8 <piku: twitch>

{TL note: This character, which roughly means "cut", is written the same as Punch's favorite word, which is why it's being used here instead of the katakana alphabet that normally is used to represent sounds and actions}
