Hajimete No Aku 44

Someone at Raw paradise has a friggin time machine....I mean it clearly said that the next issue is out WEDNESDAY, and it's not even Saturday in some parts of the world O_O. But I'm not one to question good fortune! (If you guys want the raw, you'll have to go through them....)

HUGE EDIT: I am SO sorry everyone. You see, on the end of chapter 42, I assumed that the end of chapter text that read 'Will Jiro be able to dance?! Next issue, new developments!!' Meant that new developments would come FROM THE DANCE. But it's obvious that it was reffering to Shizuka developing a crush on Jiro. That's why I translated it as 'Find out Next issue!' Instead of 'New Developments next issue!' >_< I'm so so so so so Sorry.....

Yuki: The second semester just zipped on by didn't it?

Kyouko: I know right?

(Sfx- Wai wai)

???: The whole city's gonna be getting ready for Christmas soon.

The stores have already started putting up decorations.

It's always so pretty this time of year.

Eiko: Hmmm....On that note...

003

Eiko: You guys sure hang out together a lot.....don't you have boyfriends?

Girls: Ugh!!

2.0: Boyfriend?

Eiko: Aww so you don't, that's sooo cute!!

Kyouko: How about you Oneechan?! Do YOU have one?

Yuki: Uh Miss!!

Eiko: Hm?

(Sfx- GYAHHHH!!!)

Yuki: I'd like to inform you that she's already going steady with Jiro-kun!!

Kyouko: Wait a minute!!

Eiko: Oh--! That's right!!

Yuki: Like you totally need to be honest with yourself. You've already like got one in the oven don't you?

Aki: KIDS?!

Kyouko: AS IF! And you back there!! Stop groping me!!

(Sfx- Guuu droooop)

004

Aki: You two have made no progress though have you?

Yuki: That's fine and stuff,

But Jiro-kun won't wait forever you know.

Kyouko: I don't hate him or anything....

But he's as smart as a rock.

More like, leave me alone!

Yuki: You're always talking bad about him---but how do you really feel?

(Sfx- Pinpo-n ding dong)

2.0: I'll get it.

(Sfx- Piiiin poooiiit)

2.0: This is...?

005

Shizuka: I, I pressed it...

But I've got to stay calm.

I'm just here to properly introduce myself.

After all, tomorrow's the day when Jiro and I will start attending the same school....

{Kusakabe Shizuka.}

Shizuka: I'm only supposed to be his observer!

Um, okay! I think I'm ready!

Jiro: Oh it's you...

To be observed by such a cutie isn't too bad....

(Sfx- Kira kira kira twinkle twinkle twinkle)

Shizuka: Whaat? You think I'm cute?

Oh stop it~!!

(Sfx- Gachaa Clack)

Shizuka: Hm?

(Sfx- Chaaa reee)

006

(Sfx- Chaaa dododododon fweeee booom boom boom)

(Sfx- Gogogogogogo rmmmmmble)

007

Shizuka: W—Why'd you attack me out of the blue like that?!

Is this some kind of practical joke?!

2.0: I had a strange reaction upon your arrival! You must be an ally of justice!!

You're trying to hurt Jiro-sama again aren't you?!

I won't let that happen! I'll eradicate you this time for sure!!

Shizuka: T—That's not why I'm here! I would never hurt Jiro-san!!

Jiro: If it's you, I wouldn't mind taking a few hits....

You naughty little thing you...

(Sfx- Hah gasp)

(Sfx- Bowaaaan blusssssh)

(Sfx- Piiiin bweeee)

2.0: I sense a disturbance!! You must be eliminated!!!

(Sfx- Don don don don boom boom boom)

Shizuka: Who's a disturbance?!?!

008

Yuki: See? Because you're taking so long Jiro-kun's got other girls lined up.

You'd better step up your game or you'll totally, like get left behind.

(Sfx- Gara clatter)

Kyouko: That doesn't matter right now!! STOP THAT 2.0!!

Shizuka: I'm sorry for being a nuisance...

I only came to see everyone....

Eiko: You're that justice intern girl I've heard so much about aren't you?

2.0: Hmph.

Is it really okay to let the allies of Justice in here?

I can easily make short work of her....

(Handwritten- His sister?)

(Handwritten- 'Sup!)

Kyouko: She's fine okay? So no more shooting at her.

Shizuka: It's unfortunate that Jiro-san isn't here....

I was hoping that I could give him some food I made myself...

(Sfx- Zawa brustle)

(Sfx- Gasa dsshh)

Kyouko: Hand made?

009

Shizuka: Although....

There certainly are a lot of girls here...

I wonder if Jiro-san has a girlfriend among them...

I won't know unless I ask them.....

Um, I have something important I'd like to ask you ladies...

Kyouko: Hm?

Shizuka: A—Are any of you here J—Jiro-san's....

What I mean to ask Is are any of you Jiro-san's girlfriend?

(Handwritten- Sore to naku...*And if not....*)

010

Shizuka: Huh?

No! No! It's just for observation purposes!!

It'd help me to observe him if I know as much information as possible!

(Sfx- Wata wata wata wave wave wave...)

Aki: No way...

Eiko: Has she...

Yuki: Fallen in love with Jiro-kun?!

(Sfx- Biiiiin Veeeeen)

Kyouko: N—None of us are....I think.....

(Sfx- Giku giya shaku shake shake shake)

Shizuka: S—Seriously?

I see...tee hee hee....

Jiro: Y—You should know...

Aki: She's drooling!!

Eiko: She's the real deal!

2.0: She's eeeeevil!!!

(Sfx- Parararara rattatattatatta)

Shizuka: Gwah!!

Shizuka :I'm not!!!

Eiko: Whoa!! 2.0-chan is...

Aki: So 2.0's got the hots for Akuno too huh?

Eiko: Heh, my little brother is quite the ladies man!

Yuki: And another fighter has entered the arena!!

What will the champion do about this?! Any comments Kyouko-chan?!

(Sfx- Kuruuu spin)

Kyouko: WHAT?!

Whatdyamean what will I do?! I mean...

I don't really think anything about Jiro....

012

Kyouko: He's just...

Jiro: I have returned....and is it ever cold outside.

Kyouko: WAHH!!

(Sfx- Bikuuu poooit)

Jiro: W—What?!

Yuki: You're finally back Jiro-kun!!

Eiko: Where'd you go anyway?

Jiro: I was with the Fanclub members...

More importantly, why are the lot of you gathered here?

(TN- Cat fight time!)

(Sfx- Batsu swipe)

2.0: Ah!!

013

Shizuka: Jiro-san, I've been wanting to talk to you since the incident at school!

Jiro: Oh, you're Kusakabe's little sister aren't you?

Yuki: And Shizuka-chan is first to the plate!!

(Sfx- Doki doki doki throb throb throb)


Shizuka: Um...It would make me really happy if you'd...

Come to the Christmas party that my siblings and I are having at our house!

My brothers would love it if you showed up!

(Sfx- Zawaaaa)

Jiro: Party?

Yuki: And Shizuka starts off with a preemptive strike!!

Eiko: She's not too bad for a youngster...

???: No....

014

2.0: You can't Jiro-sama! We're having a party here!!

(Sfx- Gaashitsu graaab)

Jiro: What?

What's wrong 2.0?!

Shizuka: Why not let Jiro-san decide what he wants?!

2.0: Ahh!!

I knew that you're an evil element!!

Shizuka: I'm not evil! I'm Justice!!

(Sfx- Giyaaaaah streeeetch)

Yuki: A total tug of war!!

Aki: Wow! They're at war over him!

Eiko: My little Jiro's becoming a man....!

Jiro: Wh---what have I walked into?! What's going on?!

I don't get it, but this seems like a rather bad situation to be in...!!

015


Jiro: Ah I can sense it...!!

Something's behind me!!

(Sfx- Dodododododo dooooom)

Jiro: This uncomfortable pressure!!

I'd know it anywhere!!

She's going to beat me down!!

W—Wait Kyouko...!!

016

(Sfx- Kyuuu squeeze)

Kyouko: D—Don't...

017

(Sfx- Hatsu ahh!)

Yuki: And Kyouko-chan finally makes her move...!

Aki: The mountains must be moving...!!

Kyouko: N—no! That's....!!

I was just saying...uh...'Don't fight over him...!!'

(Sfx- Buru buru buru shiver shiver shiver)

Kyouko: That's all it meant! I'm serious!!

Eiko: Omigod you're just so cuuuuute!!

(Sfx- Baaaa fwissh)

Eiko: Can I call you big sister....?!

Kyouko: No you can't! It's creepy!!

(Handwritten- Such a cute couple...)

(Sfx- Suriii graab)


(Handwritten- What's going on?)

(Sfx- Doki doki throb throb)

018

{Jiro then revealed that the Fanclub was having a party of it's own, and that everyone is invited.}

{He had gone out to see them so that they could prepare for everyone's arrival.}

Shizuka: But Kyouko-san is amazing..

I thought she regarded Jiro as no more than a friend...

2.0: As expected of Kyouko-sama...

I'll have to learn from her.

Both: We'll have to do our very best!!

(Sfx- Kiri twinkle)

(Sfx- Nya nya Grin grin)

Kyouko: I'M TELLING YOU THAT'S NOT IT!!

{And Kyouko had just made two very powerful rivals.}

Jiro: But what the heck just happened....?

(Handwritten- I still don't get it...)

Eiko: He's so dense....

(Side text- Is this Kyouko's protective instinct?! Next time, a Christmas debut!!)
