You can use the translation if you want, just be aware I'm not going to do the whole series though. I'll probably only do like 10 or so chapters.
There is way too many notes on the same page I don't think they will all fit.
Some of the notes are also way to long. Like the Sanpei part and the Diax CM. They probably won't fit on the page, but I thought they were more obscure and needed a little more explanation.
I wasn't going to put in the reference to Anzai in the notes. I think Slam Dunk is popular enough outside of Japan not to include it. Adding notes just takes away from the gags. I included it anyways, decide whether you want it or not yourself.

Ryuichi: N-not really.
Ryuichi: It's not like I said I wanted to play or anything.
Everyone: Ah...
Everyone: He's the type of kid who isn't honest with themselves.
Inumaru: That's not what your aura is telling me.
Tamako: Se.. See. Even that Miwa-san like person is saying those spiritual things.
Go play!!
(Note: Akihiro Miwa is a famous gay singer and drag queen who talks about auras and energy a lot)
Ryuichi: But, you see, my piano teacher is coming over so I'm busy.
Ryuichi: That's why I don't have time to play, everyone is just mistaken.
Inumaru: If you give up then that is the end of the match.
Tamako: Even that Anzai-sensei like person is even saying it!
Piano is important but so is playing with your friends.
I'll even talk to your mom for you.
(Note: Anzai is the coach from Slam Dunk)
Ryuichi: Eh...
Tamako: Alright, gather all of your courage and say "Let's play basketball together!"
Kids: Ryuichi fight!

Ken: Hm? Then you aren't coming over to my place?
Inumaru: I'll come over later!! About the time when things are about to get lively and everyone starts
playing the eating Jagariko from both ends game
(Note: Jagariko is a potato snack, like chips/crisps, in the shape of a stick)
Tamako: Don't do that mixer-like game!!
Tamako: This should be fine? You won't have to leave your house either.
Ryuichi: I-it doesn't matter. I don't care if you come...
Inumaru: I said I was going, but d-don't mistake this for anything
Tamako: Inumaru don't you turn into a tsundere too.
Narration: Sunday
Dad: Ah, Ryuichi you look happy today.
Ryuichi: N-not really...
A friend is coming over that is all...

Mom: Ah...? But you have piano lessons and English school today.
Ryuichi: Wha... I have English too?

Sanpei desu while putting one arm up to his ear and pulling away then doing it to the other side)
Dad: Whoa... He's already inside and he's doing the "I'm Sanpei" in this day and age
Dad: Umm... Is he a friend from the same class?
Ryuichi: No. We aren't in the same class.
Inumaru: And we aren't friends
Dad: Wha!?
Inumaru: We are more than friends but less than lovers...
Probably we both know we like each other but we can't quite bring ourselves to say anything to solidify it...
Then one day another friend say "Hey you guys going out, right?"
Without even thinking we look at each and then one says "Y-y-ya I guess we are, aren't we?"...
The other persons face turns red and says "I-I guess we are"..
Dad: That's long!!
But that is the most fun age
Mom: Inumaru-kun... I'm sorry that you came all this way.
But Ryuichi is busy, he has piano lessons and has to go to English class after..
Mom: Right! Ryuichi?
Ryuichi: Y..
Ryuichi: Ya....
Dad: ....
Page 95
Dad: Ryuichi... It's okay to take a break from piano and English, so go and play.
Ryuichi: Eh!?
Dad: In exchange, you two have to get along and have fun.
Ryuichi: O..Okay
Mom: What are you saying dear? Right now is an important time for him. He doesn't have time to play.
Dad: Playing with friends is also important.
Dad: Look... It's been awhile since the last time we saw Ryuichi smile like that.
Ryuichi: Dad says so, so I have no choice
Inumaru: Let's go to Ken-kun's place.
Dad: ...Today
Dad: he's going to come back and have learned something more important than something that can be taught.
Mom: I wonder if its ok to drive that thing on the roads?
Background: Blast-off!!
Inumaru: Hey, did you know that, that room in this apartment.
Inumaru: That's where Tamako-sensei lives!!
Ryuichi: But the laundry is for a guy?
Inumaru: Ah... weird.. did I make a mistake...
Page 96
Inumaru: Ah... Let's go through the drive through.
Ryuichi: Naw...I'm not really hungry. Hey can this thing even go through the drive through!?
Ryuichi: Anyways, let's go as fast as we can.
Ryuichi: I'm busy. My schedule is divided into minutes.
Inumaru: Divided poop...
(Note: minute and poop are homonyms in Japanese)
Ryuichi: Who cares about that useless vision! Speed up.
Inumaru: But they say "Before you take up speed, you have to take out your wiener"
Ryuichi: Nowhere does traffic saying exist
Inumaru: They also say "SPEED dance leader Hitoe-chan"
Ryuichi: That's just an introducing the SPEED member!!
(Note: SPEED was a female pop music and dance group)
Ryuichi: Could it be that this thing can't go any faster?
Inumaru: Nope!!
Girl: Geez... You are useless without me around.
Inumaru: Tamako-sensei...

Brother: You're late
Brother: Tamako
Tamako: S-Sorry. I overslept, then I watched a bit of Leave if to Akko
Brother: Just leave it to her already.
Brother: Anyways, here you go, some of my underwear and clothes.
Tamako: They are all wrinkled. Did you wash them?
I see you are still messy as ever.
Brother: Hahaha
Tamako: It's not hahaha
Brother: But I don't think you will have a need for them Tamako.
Tamako: I will, I absolutely will.
Tamako: Eh... Men’s underwear.
Principal: Ya. It's common sense!?
Page 99
Principal: A woman living all alone is a scary thing. So when you are drying your laundry mix in mens clothes.
Then people will think "Oh, a guy lives here". It works as crime prevention.
Tamako: Oh, I see
Prinicipal: I did it when I was young!! Thanks to that I didn't have even one stalker!!
You can't argue with those tremendous results.
Tamako: That part is a bit hard to grasp though.
Principal: Though, sometimes I did mistakenly wear men’s briefs.
Tamako: Then see ya.
Brother: Ya. Don't work too hard.
Tamako: Thanks brother.
Brother: Come home once and awhile!!
Ryuichi. ... Hey
Ryuichi: Just how long are we going to follow them?
Inumaru: But it's Tamako-sensei....
Narration: In the end, it wasn't until night when they realized it was a case of mistaken identity.
Ryuichi-kun's precious day off was spent following after someone he didn't know.
Dad: Ryuichi… How was it? Did you have fun?
Ryuichi: No, not really.
