Hajimete No Aku 53

Moshiwake arimasen. (Bows) I didn't mean to keep you henchmen and women away from your supreme commander. I've just had a lot of issues both on and offline. I should start digging my way out of the Aku trench soon enough, so bear with me.

....In other news, Shizuka's the horniest character in this manga. Hey, don't look at me like that, I'm just saying what we're all thinking.

Chapter 53: The girl’s serious offense and defense.
(Middle text- With the object of their affection standing before them, these ladies turn into monsters….)
HAJIMETE NO AKU
FUJIKI SHUN
(Bottom text- 2.0’s first appearance!! Pick up volume 4 in stores on February 18th!!)

002
(Sfx- Zaaaaa *sssssssh*)
2.0: Ah…
It’s certainly raining a lot…
Pochi: Its already been three days.
(Sfx- kashi kashi kashi *scrtch scrtch*)
Eiko: Geez! I can’t even get to Hello work with the weather like this!
(Sfx- Saku saku *chew chew*)
Pochi: You’re a NEET rain or shine.
(Side text- Five minutes before the incident!!)
???: We’re back!
2.0: Welcome back!
Kyouko: Hi everyone!
Jiro: We’ve returned.
(Sfx- Pikunn *poit*)
2.0: Hm?

003
Shizuka: Ah! Sorry to intrude!
(Sfx- Hyoi *wiff*)
(Sfx- Jakaaa *clack*)
2.0: Otsumekata koreda--!!!
(TN- It seems to be a finishing move from several different video games, this koreda thing…)
Shizuka: Kyah!!
(Sfx- Zubatsuuu *zzzzztt*)
Jiro: Ngohhh!!?
2.0: Aren’t you one of the warriors of justice?
You’re a hundred years too early to sneak in here!
(Sfx- Zaatsu *sifff*)
2.0: I’ll annihilate you with these weapons of mine!!
(Sfx- Bishiiii *fwissssh*)
Shizuka: Why do you do this every time I come over?!
(Sfx- pan pan *clap clap*)
Kyouko: Okay, okay, that’s enough you two.
You can’t do that to her 2.0, she’s our guest.
2.0: Eh?

004
Jiro: And there you have it.
The rain destroyed her house it seems.
The fact that it hasn’t stopped, and the weak material of the building caused it to cave in.
Shizuka: Thanks for having me over!
2.0: Can we really trust her?! She is an ally of justice!
Jiro: She’s only an observer, which makes her the same as a civilian….and we must be kind to civilians.
2.0: Hmmmph!
Eiko: Hows the rest of your family holding up?
Shizuka: They’re with other friends.
This is great! I didn’t think I’d be able to stay at Jiro-san’s house!
Gen: Have you decided where you want to go?
Shizuka: I’m going to stay with a girlfriend….
Sorry big brother,
But this is obviously fate!

005
Shizuka: A few days under the same roof with Jiro-san…
Kyahh!
(Sfx- Gara *clatter*)
JIro: Hm?
Shizuka: S—Sorry! I forgot to knock on the door first…!
Jiro: My my, what am I to do with you, my little kitten?
Haven’t I told you? If you want to see me…you need only to ask…
{Huh…?}
(Sfx- Powaaaan *ahhhhhh*)
Shizuka: Oh my….
2.0: See!! She’s giving off truly evil vibes!!
(Sfx- Biiiiiiiiin *reeeeeeeeeee*)
Kyouko: Say what?
Say, will the two of them really be okay in the same house?
Jiro: Hmm….I do wonder why they fight whenever they meet….
If they could only calm down and reach an understanding, things would work out..
Kyouko: If only you’d understand that you’re the reason…

006
(Sfx- gyuuutsu *griiip*)
Shizuka: O~kay!
Ask me for anything!! I’m glad to help!
Kyouko: Okay, how does cleaning sound?
Shizuka: Hehehe! This is a great way to appeal to him!
You can’t leave your clothes strewn about like that!
{I can’t ask you to…}
{Clean up after me?}
Shizuka: Oh my…
(sfx- Gagaga *clack clack*)
2.0: If it’s cleaning you need, leave it to me!
It’s my primary function after all!
We can’t have our guests doing housework can we?
Shizuka: Ugh!
???: Hey, someone…

007
Jiro: I’ve got quite a bit of laundry here, and I need some help.
Shizuka: Ah! Let me!
2.0: No, me!
Shizuka: Silly robot, cleanings your ‘primary function’ isn’t it?
Jiro: Wow, you’re rather skilled at this!
Shizuka: And that’s not all….
2.0: Nnnnnnh!!
(Sfx- Buru buru *shiver shiver*)
(Sfx- Pori pori *chew chew*)
2.0: I’m done now!! Let me help!
Kyouko: Hmm, it’s slowly turning into a contest…
Shizuka: I’m fine, no need for you to bother!
Kyouko: More like, does Jiro not notice what’s going on around him?!
Eiko: Ufufufufufu…..

008
Eiko: Kyouko-chan, are you sure you’re not going to join in?
You might lose your man if you don’t…
Kyouko: WHY SHOULD I CARE?!
{Putting the chicken Kyouko aside….}
{Kusukabe Shizuka begins her attack!}
(Handwritten-Jiro-san, It’s all done! Please have some of these sweet potatoes!)
(Handwritten- Potatoes?)
{She’s putting her best effort forward win Jiro’s appeal!}
{And there’s 2.0, protecting her turf!}
(Handwritten- Jiro-sama! Its time for your lunch!)
(Handwritten- It’s a little burnt, but please have some raw jerky!)
{The undersurface cat fight continues!}
{Despite their best efforts however, Jiro still goes on understanding and noticing nothing.}
(Handwritten- Jerky isn’t good for you! Have some potatoes!!)
(Handwritten- No! You have to eat this first!)
(Handwritten- Nggh! Nggh!)
{And 3 days pass like this…}

009
(Sfx- Gogogogogogo *Rmmmmble*)
{I managed to finally get into his house, but I can’t gain his approval this way…}
{It’s only one opponent, but she’s causing a multitude of problems…}
{I can’t take my eyes off of her for a second…}
{I won’t let her have her way!}
Jiro: Hmm…this atmosphere is perilous at best..
However, why is that?
Kyouko: Jiro, take out your uniform,
I can’t put them on the clothesline to dry, so I’ll have to take them to the clearners.
Jiro: Hm, okay.
(Sfx- Baaaah *fwissh*)
(Sfx- Baaaah *fwisssh*)

010
2.0 and Shizuka: Got it right here!
(Sfx- Baaaan)
Shizuka: Please let go of it.
(Sfx- Guiii *grinnd*)
2.0: You first.
(Sfx- Gugugugugugugugu *gnnnnnnnd*)
Jiro: U---m…that’s my uniform…
(Sfx- gigigigigi *Rnnnnnnd*)

011
Shizuka: Hey look! It’s a giant robot!!
2.0: Where!? Perhaps I can gain parts from it…!!
(Sfx- Batsu *fwiff*)
Shizuka: And I’m off!!!
2.0: Ah!!
(Sfx- Datsu *daaaaash*)
Shizuka: Alright!! I finally got a lead over her!!
And it even stopped raining!
This is great!!
(Sfx- Hyurururuuru *wheeoooooo*)

012
Shizuka: Kyahhhh!!
(Sfx- Sudodododododdo *thoomthoomthooom*)

(Sfx- Suraaatsu *sssssszzz*)
(Sfx- Gontsu *thonk*)
2.0: Ahhhh!!
Shizuka: Fufufufu….
I can play dirty too….
(Sfx- Jiiiiiiiiii *glaaaare*)

013
Shizuka: If that’s the case, I’m going to go full out too!!
I may be just an observer, but this is a part of my training too!!
(Sfx- Gatsu gatsu gatsu *shink shink shink shink*)
2.0: Fine by me!!
I’ll show you the power of Jiro-sama’s scientific genius!
(Sfx- Ja jakin jakin *clank clank clank*)
(Sfx- Zawa zawa *hustle bustle*)
Kyouko: This place has been blasted to bits…
Jiro: Ngh, who’s going to clean this up….?
Old guy: Aren’t those girls lively!
Kid: Good luck!
(Sfx- Gogogogogogo *Rmmmmmble*)
Eiko: Entry fee is one hundred yen!
Kyouko: Oneechan?!

014
Shizuka: My hands are slipping…
(Sfx- Hah…)
(Sfx- Hah…)
Shizuka: This is what I get for slacking on my training lately….
2.0: Ooh…my gear is at its limit…
I should have undergone complete matienence….
(Sfx- Bachi bachi bachi *zzzt zzzt zzt*)
Both: But….
Shizuka: Double Shizuka cutter!!
{I won’t lose!!}
2.0: Otsumekata weapon: Water type hammer!!
Eiko: And here it comes!!! Is this the conclusion!?
(Sfx- ooooh!!)
Kyouko: Oneechan!! Stop encouraging them!!

015
Jiro: That is…
Enough!!
(Sfx- Gatsu *grab*)
(Sfx- Zatsu *sfff*)
2.0: Jiro-sama?!
Jiro: You two, stop this at once!!
(Background- VICTORY)
Jiro: There’s no need to continue this pointless struggle!!

016
Both: WHAT’S POINTLESS ABOUT IT?!
(Sfx- Kuwaaaah)
2.0: We’re completely serious about this!
Shizuka: If you feel that way about this….
You choose one of us then! Jiro-sama!
2.0: Who would you rather have?!
Jiro: Ngh…
(Sfx- Gokuri *gulp*)

017
{Why? Why has it come down to me choosing one of them?! No matter what I do, I have a feeling it’ll end the same way…!}
{Speaking of feelings, there’s an unnerving pressure piercing me in the back..!}
Jiro: Hehe…
So you two ladies want me to choose…
I, the evil elite?
How amusing!!
(Sfx- Kuwaaaaah)

018
Jiro: If you want me to choose, you’ll have to defeat me in battle!!
(Sfx- Baaaaah *fwisssh*)
{Thus the useless evil elite falls.}
2.0: I did it Jiro-sama!
Shizuka: Now hurry up and choose!
{It might be good for him to learn more about a woman’s heart…}
Jiro: What did I do wrong…?
(Sfx- Piku piku *shiver shiver*)
(Bottom text- An extreme unluckiness with women!!! Next issue, Kyouko is…?!)
