Hajimete No Aku 31

See, I was really wondering about continuing to translate Aku because of the well....romance (Shudders) But now with the apperance of surprise loli, suddenly my interest shot up again. This means one of three things.

1) I really DO like Aku, and am a big tsundere
2) I'm a terrible terrible person and a pervert to boot (Most likely.)
3) Fujiki's actually pretty good at this.



(Top text- HAJIMETE NO AKU)

Aya: Hahahah! Foolish Japanese!!

We will be taking this to further our evil ambitions!!

(Sfx- Batsu fwiff!)

Old lady: Ahh! Wait!

Just a moment please!!

(Side text- Jiro's sisters Eiko and Aya are in uniform. What are they doing?!)

Old lady: You two look hot! Don't push yourselves too hard, and have a drink.

(Sfx- Min min min ree ree ree)

Aya: Oh, thank you.

Eiko: Yay!! Kasutera!!

(TN- Kasutera is a sponge cake.)

Kyouko: Do you really need to wear those when we're just picking up trash?

(Handwritten- Aren't you surprised ma'am?)

(Bottom text- Volume two of the manga is out now. Go grab one.)

002

(Top black box- Chapter 31: A maiden's boredom.)

{There's no need to be hated to be evil you know?}

(Black box- The civilian homecoming to Kyuushuu comedy!!)

HAJIMETE NO AKU
FUJKI SHUN.

003

Old lady: You're always such a big help.

If I were to ask for the merchants to take care of this, I'd be penniless.

Aya: No, you're helping us.
The items you throw away become useful tools for us.

Eiko: Kasuteraaa!

Aya: Sorry for dragging you along Kyouko-san.

Kyouko: No problem at all.

Old lady: Oh? And who is she?

Aya & Eiko: Jiro's wife.

(Sfx- Katsu roaaar)

Kyouko: QUIT YOUR LYING EVIL ORGANIZATION!!

004

{With that, my vacation at Jiro's hometown continues.}

Eiko: All right, time for us to hit the road.

(Sfx- Min min min min ree ree ree)

{In reality, I guess I'm helping their evil organization get back on it's feet.}

Aya: Thank you for the meal ma'am.

{At least that's what Jiro's always talking about doing.}

(Handwritten- Upsy daisy.)

{Right now, the members of the organization are gathering for a meeting in Kyuushuu.}

(Sfx- Hooo)

(Sfx- 'Sup, Akuno?)

{This is probably the real reason as to why we came back.}

Aya: You should go introduce yourself as father's stand in Jiro.

Jiro: A simple matter elder sister.

{And so we're here.}

{But gathering trash for others? Who knew an evil organization could be so eco friendly?}

Eiko: There we go.
005

Old lady: Young lady, are you Jiro-chan's friend?

Kyouko: Well, sort of.

Old lady: Be sure to get along well with him.

He's a really nice boy.

Kyouko: A—Y—Yeah.

Jiro's pretty popular around these parts isn't he?

Eiko: Hm? Yeah, it's this countryside.

Aya: The elderly love him the most around here.

Kyouko: Oh?

Eiko: Well, it's mainly 'cause he doesn't have friends his own age.

Thats why he reached out to the elderly----

Kyouko: Ah?

(Sfx- Geshoun clank)

006

(Sfx- Genshoun clank)

(Sfx- Bikuuu pooooit)

Old guy: Eiko-chan? You're back home?

Eiko: Old man Yasuda!

Kyouko: Wh...What's that thing?!

(Handwritten- It's creepy!)

Eiko: It's a mountain tractor that Jiro modified for him.

Old guy: This thing is incredible! It plows the mountain path right fine.

Is Jiro around? I'd like to give him this radish as thanks.

Well, see you.

007

Old lady:Oh is Jiro-chan here?

I was hoping that he could have a look at our TV...

Old guy: Is Jiro coming over?

I have to thank him for this back massager, it's great.

Kyouko: I'm beat!

Aya: Good work! A hardworking bride is a happy bride!

Kyouko: I'm telling you, I'm not his bride.

(Sfx- Goto goto clatter clatter)

Jiro: But Jiro's really popular isn't he!

To think that he's no more than an annoyance back home....

Eiko: Are we impressed ?

Kyouko: No...well maybe...

008

Aya: But Jiro's weakness is his lack of knowledge concerning the outside world.

The reason why we sent him out is to observe the outside world.

Kyouko: He's got a long way to go if you ask me....to say that he's lacking in common sense is putting it lightly.

Aya: I thought so...

We were hoping while father is away that Jiro would be able to become more of an adult....

But it seems there is still much to be done before he returns.

By the way Eiko, when are you going to find a job?

(Sfx- Ginuuuroo glaaaare)

Eiko: What can I do when there's a resession?

009

{That's right....}

{Someday Jiro and his sisters have to return here...}

{Once and for all....}

010

Kyouko: Wow!! This festival is huge!!

Aya: Isn't it? The whole town gathers to enjoy the festivities.

(Sfx- Wai wai wai)

Eiko: But we were lucky that mom still had my old yukata.

Kyouko: Yeah your mom did a great job of hemming the sleeves.

011

Aya: However, I wonder why Jiro's so late?

He should have been finished with that meeting ages ago.

Eiko: He should be here gawking at Kyouko-chan in her cute yukata.

Kyouko: I could care less what he thinks.

Pochi: Hmph.

Sadly, there doesn't seem to be anyone here who wants to see you two in your yukata is there?

(Sfx- Pita poit)

(Sfx- Hata hata fwiff fwiff)

Aya: Pochi-san, a word please.

(Sfx- Suta suta suta tmp tmp tmp)

Eiko: Hahaha, where do you think you're going?

{Spider sense tingling.}

Kyouko: My oh my....

012


Kyouko: I'll have to go home soon....

(Sfx- Kara koro)

Kyouko: And eventually Jiro and his sisters will have to stay here for good...

(Sfx- Wai wai)

Kyouko: But what about me?

(Sfx- kara clat)

{Suddenly....}

{I feel so alone...}

Guy: Oh?

Hey there girl, you alone?

How about you hang out with me?

013

{Drunk guys...}

Kyouko: I'm doing fine on my own thanks.

Guy: Hey, don't be like that!

(Sfx- Beshaa dssssh)

Kyouko: I said leave me alone!!

(Sfx- Guutsu grrip)

{Crap! I can't kick properly in this yukata....!}

{What am I going to do at a time like this...!!}

014

Jiro: JIRO THE WILD DRAGON!!!!

Guys: GYAHHHH!!

(Sfx- Zubaaaah fwoooos)


Kyouko: Jiro?!

Guys: A---Cape?!

The Evil orgainzation....!!

015

Jiro: Are you okay Kyouko?

Kyouko: Ah...

Y—Yeah..

I'-I'm fine...

Jiro: You're in the way you lousy civilians!!

If you must drink, do it elsewhere!

Guys: So—Sorry!!

People: You Evil organization guys are awesome!!

It's been a while!! Where have you been?!

(Sfx- Waaa)

Jiro: Hahaha! Just doing some research!!

016

{Ugh, is it just me, or am I being torn in three over the sight of Jiro...?!}

{No wait! It can't be! This is just my mind wandering out of boredom! I gotta calm down!}

{I'll count the prime numbers!! 1, 2, 3, 4....wait those aren't prime at all!!}

Jiro: What's the matter Kyouko?

Are you upset that you dropped your shaved ice?

(Sfx- Zuiii driffft)

Kyouko: Ugh...

He's so close...


(Sfx- Doki doki throb throb)

017

Jiro: Never fear! I have a replacement for you!

Kyouko: Ngh...

T-Thanks...

{Why do I feel so much safer now that Jiro's around?!}

{Could I seriously be falling for....Jiro.....}

Loli: Ah....so it's her.

The one who's gonna be your underling..

(Sfx- Shaku slurp)

018

(Sfx- Shaku shaku shaku slurp slurp slurrrp)

Kyouko: Wha?

Jiro: Ah, well....after the meeting, I noticed her following me around.

Loli: Jiro, lets leave that breastless woman here, and go back to my place.

{The girl who had followed Jiro, seems like the type to start trouble.}

Kyouko: Jiro...did you kidnap a kindergärtner?

Loli?: I'm a second year!! A second year!!

You wanna start something?!

{Just who is this girl? Find out next week!}

(Bottom text- And here comes trouble!!)
