Boku to Majo no Jikan 8

I guess the school in the chapter title refers to Rantarou's flashback? Otherwise I'm lost. This chapter made up for the difficulty of the last one by just being friggin hilarious. See you guys in May with chapter 9.



???: I found you!

(Middling text- News flash! JC 'Bokumajo' volume two will hit stores on January 4th! (Wednesday.)

???: You again...?

???: Heheh...

This time I won't let up until I kick your ass.!

???: You really want to go at it again?

???: Of course!!

(Side text- In the dark recesses of the city, two new characters...?!)

(Sign- Trash dumping prohibited.)

??? Heh...

003

???: Aaaaah

Dammit.

I'm still not good enough?!

More like this is bad...

I feel like I'm gonna die..

BOKU TO MAJO NO JIKAN

ARAKAWA SHIN

8th Hour: Anachronism school days.

(Side text- An ordinary morning?!)

???: How long are you gonna stare slack jawed at the TV?! Get your kiester to school Enji!!

004
Enji: But sis, I wanna see my divination...

(Sfx- Geshi kick)

(Handwritten- Huh?)

Sister: Quit talking like a little girl. Don't you have balls down there?!

Now get your ass to school!!

Enji: Kyah!

Ah..

Geez..

Why the hell do all the girls in my family have to be violent boneheads?

(Handwritten- My ass hurts.)

???: Hey there buddy...um...

005

???: You're a 'kris' ain'tcha?

Take me to Benihi coffee....

I'm..

Beggin ya...

Enji: Huh?

Wait...?

006

Enji: Hey Hakuu...

I hate to bug ya, but this guy insisted I bring him to you.

Hakuu: Rantarou?

Rantarou: Ha—Hakuu..

Been a minute..

Rantarou: UNGH.
Enji: Wha...?!

What are you doing?! He's injured!!

007

(Sfx- Ton tap)

Hakuu: Enji...you've brought one hell of an annoyance with you.

Enji: Huh? But he's an 'underground customer' right?

Hakuu: Well..

You aren't wrong....

Looks like he lost miserably again...

For goodness sake.

No helping it. I'll administer medical treatment....bring him in Enji.

Enji: S—Sure.

Rantarou: Maan.

I knew you'd be able to patch me back up with your medical treatment Hakuu...you're the best!

(Sfx- Dun dun dun duuuun)

008

Hakuu: Listen, you getting your butt whupped and then dragging said behind here is an issue for me you know?

Rantarou: C'mon, don't be like that! I haven't been here in a while youknow?

Oh!

I made you this as a present! It's a rice bowl.

See, I was thinking of you when I made it Hakuu! Go on, take it!

Hakuu: I can use this as Ain's food bowl....thanks.

Rantarou: It'd make me happy if you took it.

Enji: Are you sure you're okay with that...?

Rantarou: Oh yeah, thanks buddy.

It sucks you had to see me all messed up like that tho.

Enji: Um, yeah. It's cool.

Rantarou: Oh yeah, I forgot.

I should probably introduce myself and junk.

{Oyama Rantarou// Favorite rider Riderman.}

(TN- Kamen rider reference I'm assuming.)

Rantarou: I'm a second year student at Rokushou academy Oyama Rantarou.

Pleased to meetcha!

009

Hakuu: He's really just an ultra idiot though. Better you don't get involved with him.

Rantarou: After not seeing each other for so long, you're being awfully rude Hakuu!

Hakuu: I call an idiot as I see an idiot.

And judging from your injuries, you tried fighting Kamiju again didn't you?

Rantarou: Y--

Yeah dammit!!

I've been trying to fight that guy and win for two months as a part of my training!!

Enji: Wha?

You were in a fight?

(Handwritten- Dude, I thought you got hit by a car or something..)

Hakuu: Kamiju is a freelancer for the underground society.

If you pay him, he'll do any sort of job. He's quite strong to boot.

However this dummy here continuously tries to pick a fight with him just to lose.

010

Rantarou: I don't care if I'm an idiot! This is the life I was born for.
When I see someone strong, I gotta fight and win! Badass no? Totally like a main character too!

As a fellow dude you get it right? Um...

Enji: Oh?

Me?

Rokushou academy first year Tsudzuri Enji.

Right now I'm sorta Hakuu's assistant and I work here.

Rantarou: Wha..?

Assistant?

The hell?! I've been asking to be your assistant for a while now Hakuu! What happened?

Hakuu: Talking to you is a pain.

Rantarou: Whaaat?!

011

Kankuro: Hey Hakuu, got a minute?

Rantarou: Ah! Kankuro-san!

Long time no see!!

Stop making that obvious 'Damn, it's him again' face!!

The southern district of this city has a yakuzua group known as the 'Akahayashi gumi'. The son of the leader has taken in a 'kris' without permission, and that creature ran away.

The group has sent out several guys to look for it, and one who managed to catch it on camera before it ran off took this pic.

012

Hakuu: Ooh.

This looks like a Spinx.

Enji: Huh. Looks like an ordinary cat to me.

Hakuu: That's just camouflage.

It emits a pheromone that creatures like and then eats them whole. It could even eat a child, its that kind of reprehensible creature.

Before it causes a major incident and becomes city lore, we should probably capture that kris.

Rantarou: H—Hey Hakuu!

I want to repay you for fixing me up! Let me look for that thingy! Besides searching for stuff is my specialty!

Hakuu: Are you sure? You're sorta injured right?

(Handwritten- And you are going to pay me for your treatment right?)

Rantarou: Injured?

As if! I'm back to black baby!

See!

(Sfx- Bushuuu blooosh)

Hakuu: Um no. You're kind of bleeding!

013

Rantarou: You'll see! I'll be back in a flash!

(Sfx- Bushii bloorsh)

(Handwritten- Huh!?)

Kankuro: Hey..

Rantarou, are you seriously okay?

Hakuu: Enji, could you go with him?

(Handwritten- I'm worried about him going off on his own.)

Enji: Y—yeah.

???: Did you find that cat?

???: Not yet sir.

???: Really now. Well you'd best hurry.

If that person has to make a move, it's bad news.

???: Yeah.

014

???: If that thing isn't handled...

The other gangs and the underground organizations might find out...

Rantarou: Huh?

Why are you following me?

Enji: Obviously because you're injured.

Rantarou: Listen, I'm glad you wanna help and all that jazz..

But I ain't gonna be able to trust you just because you're Hakuu's assistant and all, got it?

015

Enji: Um...you don't...do you like Hakuu?

Rantarou: I get it...

You're a 'psychicker'...

(Handwritten- You got me there...)

Enji: Um, I can tell from just looking at you.

Rantarou: It started one winter several years ago..

Enji: I hate to cut into your flashback,

But we've got a cat to find.

Rantarou: Oh, yeah. About that cat, I can easily find its scent with my nose.

Enji: Your nose?

Rantarou: I'm a 'wolfman' kris.

My nose is on the same level as a wolf's.

016

Enji: Wolfman?

Rantarou: You've probably heard all kinds of stories or read novels about wolves right?
Enji: Can't say I have, no.

Rantarou: In any case this nose of mine can seek out the cat's hormones..

Enji: Pheromones.

Rantarou: Right, that thing. And using the scent I can track it down.

What, you don't believe me?

Okay then, rather then help me out how about I just prove it to you?

We'll have a contest. Whomever can find that cat first wins. Sound good?

Enji: Yeah...but how are you going to find out what the pheromones scent is...?

Rantarou: Ah...

A—anyway, it doesn't change the fact that once I get a lock on the scent I'll find it first!

Why are you looking at me like that?! You don't believe me?

017

{5 hours later.}

Rantarou: Walking and running about while searching for 5 hours...

Has brought us this, well whatevs. Lets see if we can't get a scent from this?

This is the stuff we've found.

{Top right: Dentures//Surstromming// Four star ball// Middle: Glove// Ikko document 'Woman's laws// Left top: Homeless guy (61 years old)// TE*GA// White powder}

(TN- TE*GA or TENGA is a Japanese sex product, Surstromming is a swedish dish of fermented Baltic herring, not sure what Ikko-document is, and the four star ball is...the four star ball. Though the writing for it is Sushin chuu)

Rantarou: What?!

Where's the cat?

Enji: Um...more like what kind of crap have we managed to find?

018

Rantarou: This is weird....where is that cat?

Enji: No, I really think we should worry about this stuff we found.

(Handwritten- Like the white powder.)

(TN- That old dude is totally snorting it.)

???: Oh wow. I was wondering who you are and it turned out it's Oyama...

Rantarou: Huh?

Dude: It's been about two months hasn't it? Where did you go?

Squirrel(?): Kishishi

{Rokushou High school Boss Aoyama Seijun and his accomplice Chabashira Niko// Throwaway characters.}

(TN- Lol.)

Rantarou: Aoyama!!

Niko: Isn't this great boss?

He remembered your name!!

Aoyama: S—Shut up! I ain't happy or anything.

019

Rantarou: Sorry 'bout this Tsudzuri-kun...We're gonna have to put our cat search on the back burner for a bit.

Enji: Huh? Why?

Aoyama: You mighta beat me before...

But this time things ain't goin' the way you want Oyama!

Right? Guys?

020

{Rokushou High Shitenou Destruction Monk Amachi.}

{Rokushou High 10 blades Porno master Honda.}

{Same 10 blades Rock master Sawaki}

{Sweat covered Gonta.}
(Tn- Shitennou is from several anime and manga, while I'm sure Jyuppongatana is from Kenshin and from a lesser extent Bleach. (Where it's Espada)).

Rantarou: Oh?

Enji: Dude, what kind of enemies have you made?

Aoyama: But I should actually be thanking you. If it weren't for the fact that you betrayed us, I wouldn't have been able to gather all these strong guys.

Niko: Kishishi, It's cause he was soooo looking forward to meeting you again that we were able to gather everyone!

Aoyama: Hey! I wasn’t THAT happy to see him! Stop talking!

Enji: H—hey.

Rantarou: Huh? What?

Enji: Look there at the girl with them.

{Lone flower Big bang breasts Orin.}

(Handwritten- Wh---what?)

021

Spinx: Nyah

Rantarou: The cat!!

He's theeeeeeeeere!!

(Handwritten- How'd he end up there?)

Aoyama: What?

What about that cat?

We found him in the school yard.

Rantarou: Hey Aoyama, if I kick your ass...

Imma take that cat.

Got it?

Aoyama: Yer actin' too proud Oyama.

Do you really think you can beat all of the guys I got gathered here?!

Rantarou: Tsudzuri-kun, you stay out of this. All of these guys are my prey.

Enji: All of them? Even if you are a 'kris', you're still injured...

022

Rantarou: If I can't take care of something like this,

Then I'm not myself.

Listen up,

Small fry characters!!

Bring your rocks, your knives and your guns!!

I don't give a damn what you bring, just make sure you bring it with all you've got!

I just want a fight....

A fight that will bring me that feeling...the feeling of getting stronger!!

023

Aoyama: Y---

{Equipped weapon// Stone}

Dude: You asked for it!!!

{Equipped weapon// Three sided cone.}

Dude: Oyamaaaaaaah!!!

Rantarou: Kuahahah!!

Are we gonna fight or what?!

Enji: Wha?

Dude: Orahahhh!!

Lets do thissss!!

Enji: Eh?!

Dude: C'moooon!
{Equipped weapon// Model gun.}

{Equipped weapon// Hobby Blade}

{Equipped weapon//Matsui stick.}

(TN- Matsui stick is a sort of beauty product.)

Enji: Wait...

Why me?!

024

Rantarou: Hey Tsudzuri-kun! I told you to stay out of this!!

Enji: I really couldn't help it!

(Handwritten- They were after me too!)

Enji: They brought the fight to me!

025

Aoyama: Hey!

Check out the dude with the Pikachu haircut!! What the hell is he doing?!

He ain't too bad at fightin'!

Take him down with Oyama too!!

Guys: ORAHHHHH!!!

Rantarou: Damn.

Allrighty then, but make sure if you're gonna take anyone down that you keep it to the small fry characters only!!

Enji: Huh?!

The hell, do you think this is Streets of Rage?!

More like, it's already hard enough to tell who's who!

026

Rantarou: That's easy dude..

Sixth sense!

Enji: Sixth sense?

Rantarou: Use the sixth sense!!

{When he was younger, Rantarou has a weak body due to sickness.}

{What ended up changing him was recuperation...}

{Recuperation done in the wilderness.}

{Breathing in the fresh air of the hills and mountains...}

{Day after day, Rantarou's body began to get stronger.}

027

{No...}

{It would be simpler to say that his body was returning to it's normalcy as a wolfman.}

{Rantarou was happy to have his strong body and health...}

{10 years old.}

{And began to act like a punk.}

(Handwritten- My front tooth came out!)

{He began to pick fights with anyone he could find.}

(Handwritten- Lets fight!)

(Handwritten- Dammit..)

{When he'd lose he'd simply train himself and then throw himself into the next challenge, the next fight....and this is how his days would proceed.}

028

{By the time he had reached his sixth year in elementary school..}

{There wasn't a person in town who he hadn't beaten.}

(Children's sumo event against the village hero Futomakimaru who's ship was sunk.)

{In middle school he...}

{Took down the monster bear who had been eating villagers 'Kintarou' in a fight.}

029

{After he defeated the bear, the people of the village began to revere Rantarou.}

{Though there were a certain few who would scorn the boy for his deeds, attaching a certain monkier to him...}

{For snatching Kintarou's 'life...}

{or in this case balls...}

{Rantarou would be...}

{For short...}

{Kintamarantarou.}

(TN- So much win. Kintama is balls.}

{This would exasperate Rantarou to no end.}

{So}

{Eventually the time came for him to return to the city.}

(Handwritten: Hey Kintama!)

(Handwritten- Kintama!)

{It was the winter of his first year in middle school when he left there and returned to his old home.}

{He declared to himself that he'd become stronger no matter where he was.}

{But just how much stronger would he need to become before he'd be satisfied?}

{The answer to this would only come as long as he sought strength.}

{And this is what lead to Rantarou's current way of life.}

031

{Consequently...}

Rantarou: Weak!!

Weak!!

Weak!!

Weak!!

(Sfx- Pasha pasha blish blish)

(Sfx- bashaan bloosh)

032

Rantarou: Sooooo

WEAAAAAAAK!!!

EEENNNGHHHHHH!!!!

033

Rantarou: THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU GUYS?!

Dude: Wh—what?! Even if you say that much...

(Handwritten- We got used for two pages...)

Rantarou: Ah dammit..

Even though I'm this strong....

034

Rantarou: There's still plenty I haven't seen.

I've still got a long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, way to go.

Kuahah..

IN the end all I can do is laugh...

Cause there's just so much more I want to experience...!!

Dude: Ngh!

035

Enji: Haaah

Hahh..

{He's a friggin Monster.}
{He fights as well...}

{As I do, and has the same moves.}

{He hasn't even taken a single breath yet.}

Aoyama: D—dammit!

Then we're gonna have to call it quits for today!

{Didn't fight.}

Aoyama: You can take the damn cat! Just thank my generosity!

Niko: Just be sure to remember the boss next time!

(Handwritten- Bye bye Kitty-chan.}

036

Enji: Geez.

I got all sweaty...

Rantarou: Phew! What a rush!

Enji: Well, we found the cat so I guess we should contact Hakuu...

Spinx: Nyah!

Enji: Hm?

Whoa.

Damn. Even cats owned by the yakuza are well taken care of.

(Sfx- Kira shine)

Enji: It's collar has some pretty high quality jewels on it.

037

Enji: If we were to sell it, how much would it be worth...?

Rantarou: Tsudzuri-kun..

Well no.

I won't call you Tsudzuri any more.

Rantarou: You fight like a champ, buddy!

You're more than just an assistant for Hakuu.

Enji: Dunno why, but things suddenly got creepy.

Rantarou: So then..

Will you hear me out? I've got a favor to ask...

You know, see I wan't able to go all out in the fight we were in just now.

So well...

038

Rantarou: You and me..

Lets fi--

Enji: NO.

Rantarou: That' was kinda fast...

(Handwritten- And you said no..)

Enji: I sorta figured that’s where you were going with this.

Rantarou: Come on now! You and I did a number on those guys together you know?

And it would be good practice for real combat! Doing work for the underground means risking death man!

Enji: Well...I get what you mean...

Rantarou: All right, then it's decided!

Enji: Um no...wait.

039

Rantarou: Oh!

By the way, whomever wins can order something from the loser. How about it?

Enji: How about what?! More like you just decided this on your own!

Rantarou: How about if I win you hand over your assistant position?
Enji: What?! Do you not understand the words coming out of my mouth?!

You're pissing me the hell off!

Moreover...

Its true I'm working with Hakuu, but I don't have any particular feelings towards her.

So I can't accept those conditions.

Even if you were to win against me or whatever, unless Hakuu agrees it's pointless.

Rantarou: Ah, yeah.

Okay then lets change the conditions then.

So basically I should change the conditions so that they'd affect you personally.

If it's like that, then I think I’d be fine with it.

Enji: What?

Rantarou: Okay, to summarize if I manage to win then...

040

Rantarou: You'll be gay.

041

Enji: Eh?

What?

Rantarou: You..

Will be gay!

{I don't get...}

{What he means!!}

Spinx: Nyah

Nyah

???: Did you find the cat yet?

???: Bro, you have to look too!!
(Side text- Where is the cat?!)
