Gintama 187

Ahh...the days where i used to be able to do translations often have slipped me by....Well i read through this chapter and it looked to be pretty easy (Plus i want to try to take the Japanese proficency exam next year and the best way to study is to translate manga!) So i did this one....don't depend on me for more, though i will try to make time for translations in the future for Gintama at least. As long as its not an arc.





Middle text: The tales of a worker! IT'S sushi!!

Hasegawa: Maan, its been so long since then...

Working as an understudy at my dad's place to make Sushi.

We used to work day in and day out me and my pops. I practiced until i would drop.

I suppose it came in handy because i eventually was left in charge of the place.

And this time i'll do it!

Otae: Yay! Manager Hasegawa!

Hasegawa: Aww you're making me blush!

Otose: It figures a man can do what he wishes when he puts his mind to it.

Maybe now that you're through running you can return and gain some pride?

Good luck.

002

Hasegawa: Today i'll treat everyone since you're good friends

Ready to test my work? The best damn Sushi there is?

Its all on me after all! Eat as much as you like!

Kagura: Yahoo! It's been a while since i've been able to eat Sushi!

I wonder what kind i should try?

Otae: Oh look its coming this way!

Oh my it looks like tasty Kappa-maki!

Kagura-chan would you like to try some together?

Kagura: Yeah!

Shinpachi: Hey! Next up is more Kappa-maki!

Hasegawa-san This Kappa-maki looks great! Well i suppose i'll take this one!

Gintoki: Again with the Kappa-maki in the end? Well i suppose since i'm so hungry i'll just take it.

003

Gintoki: Can we be satisfied with this?!?

All that continues to come is Kappa-maki!!

What the hell is up with that?! Bring out the Doro! Or the Uni! Something other than this!
We didn't come here to meet you just to eat something so simple!

Hasegawa: Its all that will come out...

'Truth is...i never learned how to...

Make sushi at all...

004

Top Text: 3 nen Z gumi Ginpachi Sensei novels will be serialized in Jump Square which will be released on Friday November 2nd!!

Middle text: We won't be eating sushi this time?!

Lesson 187: Plates taken the first time can't be returned.

Otose: So all that before about your father's lessons was a lie?

Gintoki?: So the truth is that your pops only left you in charge of the store for only a part of a day?

Hasegawa: This Sushi Machine was supposed to take the edge out of making the stuff or so he said, but it doesn't do a damn thing..

Soon the time for closing this place up will be coming....What will i do?

Soon this place will be known as MADAO (Maru de dame na ossan)!!

Otose: Well for now, its important to get the machine working. Perhaps that will turn things around.

Tama have a look would you?

Tama: Understood.

Hasegawa: Wh...what the?

Otose: Tama is a machine herself, so perhaps she can commincate with it to find out just what the problem with it is, and get it working.

Tama: Thirsty?

How about a drink of this?

005

Tama: What's wrong? You don't drink beer?

You aren't quite up to that kind of drink quite yet? President Denshi-Renge?

Shinpachi: Wow, she's tottally giving me the vibes of a office spring vacation.

???: Who the heck is President Denshi-renge?

Tama: You can't give up i said, that person your wife still doesn't want to bid farewell.

That person isn't just yours, but the property of Rengeko, and so you have to think of both of them.

Shinpachi??: What the hell? Is this some kind of Error? What are they talking about?!

Tama: Don't be so naiieve!!!

If you give up you won't be able to become stronger! Don't lose to Tokyo or yourself!!

Tama: After exhaustive testing, i have found that this machine is beyond repair.

Hasegawa: What is beyond repair is you!!

Hey! What do we do now?! My time of hope is running out! I don't have it anymore!!

Otose: For now you guys try to figure something out!! Catherine and I will distract them!

Just head into the back!

006

Hasegawa: I'm so sorry everyone! To make you help out so suddenly, and drag you into my problem

Shinpachi: Its no problem Hasegawa-san, when you're in a pinch its up to your friends to help out. Just leave it to us!.

Hasegawa: Unfortunatly i really don't think looking at you guys that you have any idea how to make sushi do you?

And i don't exactly have the time to teach any of you from the begining...

But my hope is riding on you guys, although i really hate to trouble you.

Otae: Hasegawa-san, excuse me but if you could just tell us the basics?

You at least remember how to make the shape of the Kappa-maki that your father showed you right?

Hasegawa: All right, but take a good look.

Its only gonna be done once so look.

First off you clutch the rice like this and try to roll it up. It should get a hard feeling in your hands.

Make sure it isn't too hard or too weak or else you won't be able to use it. Allow just enough air to get in before rolling.

Then add a little bit of Wasabi, and put the Neta on top.

Next roll it.

007

Hasegawa: All right its done!

WHAT THE HELL!?!?!

Why? Why?! Why is it no matter what i do all i can do is make a perfect Kappa-Maki?!

Shinpachi: Just now you wasted a panel on that you know!!

Hasegawa: Its no good, i'm only good at making Kappa-maki like i thought....

Shinpachi: When the heck did you even get the black cover for it?!? I didn't even see it! When did it change?! Just now?!

Gintoki: It seems like you're being haunted by some guy who was killed making Kappa-Maki. Or something like that.

Shinpachi: Thats no good, Hasegawa-san, you've got to be able to make something other than Kappa-Maki...

Otae: But it is a bit ambient isn't it? listening to him speak...

I think at least i've got a feeling how to do the shape properly at least.

Shinpachi: Hey! Thats right, at long as you aren't using fire sis you should be able to come up with something thats pretty good!

Otae: Allow just the right amount of air...then roll.

Now add the Wasabi.

Put the neta on top..

now roll..

There! All done!

Shinpachi: WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!?!

How did you manage to come up with that burnt thing without even using fire?!? What just happened?!?

Otae: Truthfully yesteday i felt my hands getting a bit warm.

Shinpachi: How do you manage to do that?! To get that kind of burning passion?! Go back! And find out whats wrong with your head please!!

008

Gintoki: You guys are as usual total noobs. When it comes to making this stuff, its like making love.

You don't think about letting enough air in or make a bunch of noise while roling. These are the mistakes you make.

It doesn't take a long time to learn how to do something like this when you have the righ moves.

We just need to rely on feeling, and the shape will come afterwards.

Gintoki: See?

Shinpachi: THE SHAPE IS ALL WRONG!!!

Gintoki: No it isn't moron! This isn't sushi sure...its the side menu! You can't have a perfect meal without it!

???: Someone should have made it clear before! But it doesn't matter does it? Its all going in the same mouth right?

Shinpachi: You can't eat just that!! Do we look like a bunch of Patishiers? I don't even know how you could have possibly come up with that!!

Gintoki??: But when you look at all our dishes together it does look like something that would be served at a convaor belt resturant, especially lately.

Otae: Though Gin-san's Parfe cant possibly hold a flame to my barbique.

Gintoki: Thats Barbique? It looks like a part of a corpse to me.

Otae: Hmn? Kagura-chan? What are you doing?

Kagura: Mnn...Hows this?

Hasegawa??: Whoaaaaaa! This is...

Otae: Amazing Kagura-chan! Thats the most perfect sushi i've ever seen! I've never seen anything quite like it!!

009

Otae: But will we be able to get this out the store though?

Shinpachi: NO! Its too huge!!

Besides where did you get that huge covering?!?

Kagura: I dreamt it! I always wanted a huge sushi to eat!

Shinpachi: Theres no one in this world that would eb able to eat something this huge!! No one!

??: Eggs and Crabs coming through!

Shinpachi: What do we do? All we can make are Kappa-Maki!!

Tama: Leave it to me!

Shinpachi: Tama-san!

Tama: I have obtained Data on how to creat this "Sushi."

I will now mix the ingredients and my knowlege.

010

Shinpachi: She ate it?!

Wait...no..

This....This is?!

(Vomiting noises... Ogeeeeeeeh? Ubeeeeeeee)

Tama: Done....

Shinpachi: Who's gonna eat that?!?

Hasegawa: What the hell! The shape isn't even right! What are you the Super Demon king or something?!?

Besides who would eat something that someone else barfed up?

Tama: A robot's vomit isn't unhealthy, all i did was prepare the sushi within my body.

Hasegawa: It's still vomit dammit!!

Tama: It's Oil.

011

Gintoki: Well its 4 or 5 of something isn't it? We really don't have the time to complain about it as long as we have results.

We'll just serve it for now.

Hasegawa: WAAAAAAIT! DON'TTTTTTTTTTT!

Samurai 1: Delicious!

Samurai 2: Well i didn't think that eating at a new resturant would have such an awesome taste.

Samurai 3: What is this really?!

It's really good! Can i have more please?!

This is the best! Prepare more!!

I want what that guy is having!

Me too!

Me too!

Achiki too!

012

Shinpachi: A miracle...

A miracle happened...

Hasegawa: Do it! Make more of that stuff!

Feed her more and more and throw up more and more sushi! Its the only way to save everything in this resturant!

Catherine: Amazing! The plates are like filying out!

???: This Resturant is doing better than before!

Come here! Come on over!!

Otae: Hasegawa-san! We're out of ingredients! Theres nothing more to roll!

Hasegawa: What?!

Damn! My only chance to turn things around, and its slipping away!

Am i gonna be a madao wherever i go?!?

Gintoki: Go.

013

Gintoki: Gather what you can and meet us back here!

We won't leave this place until you return!

Now hurry and go!!

Hasegawa: I'm depending on you!!

Kondo: Toshi...what is this place?

I mean you dragged me here for the revolving Sushi...

But all i see is Kappa-maki coming down the line.

Hijikata: The soliders on vacation had this place in high regard...

But it seems they were only rumors...

014

??: This is looking like the worst situation.

I'm getting the idea that perhaps we're in the wrong place.

Kondo: Stop it Toshi, we should at least try the food first.

Hijikata: What the, whats with this leaky Parfe?

Do you even see these types of things at revolving resturants?

Kondo: Hey Toshi, whats that?

Do you think that its Dark Matter?

Hijikata: Why the hell would dark matter be on the same revolving chain as Kappa-maki?

Kondo: It's 300 yen...what should i do Toshi? Should i get it?

Hijikata: Do what you want. I'll leave you the Dark matter, and i'll wait for the Curry Engawa to show up.

(Engawa Curry.)

015

Kondo: What was that just now?

Hijikata: Um...I'm sure this is a revolving Sushi palce, yet there is Curry here?

Kondo: Did have "Engawa Curry" written on the little card?

Could it be Toshi that they heard what you wanted?

Hijikata: No, it can't be. I wanted the Curry Engawa. Theres fish at the base with meat on the side.

Kondo: You say that but...

(Curry that has Engawa in it.)

Kondo: Toshi, the first go around it had one thing written on it, and now the sign has changed to somethiing else on the second go around.

Hijikata: No, It can't be it just can't. I wanted the Curry of Engawa.

(Curry of Engawa)

Kondo: Hey...this may be impossible, but i think that its the same dish with differen names.

It seems destined for you though.

Hijikata: But its not Curry, its Currie that i want.

016

(Hurry up and take the damn curry moron.)

Hijikata: Who is the bastard who's doing this?!?

Kondo: Man its like they're sending you messages...

Hijikata: Who would keep sending us Curry in a Revolving Sushi resturant anyway?

Kondo: I dunno, i'm begning to be in the mood for Lobster now anyway..

017

Hijikata: Was that...the third lord Ebizou just now?

Was that for you Kondo-San?

(TN note: I don't know who Ebizou is...but Ebi is 'Crab' so..its probably a lame joke.)

Kondo: No way, i didn't want that kind of 'Ebi" at all. I want crab not the third loard Ebizou.

But man things are really messed up here...

Hijikata: Maybe its just our eyes or something...

???: Hey! Ebizou just got stuck inside the revolver!

He's looking over here! he's definatly looking over here at us that Ebizou!

Hijikata: What the hell is up with this Resturant?

Kondo: What do we do if he comes back? Thats begining to bug me...

018

Hijikata: Beats me...

Wait! Ebizou has returned with Curry!

He's got a plate in both hands! You've got to be kidding me! Is it for real?!

??: GYAHHH!!

WHAT THE HELL?!?

WHO THE HECK DID THIS?!?

019

Gintoki: I don't know any~thing~

Hasegawa: UOOOH!

Wait for me everyone!

I'm coming back right now!!
