Majimoji Rurumo 5

Welcome to 'Witches and Angels' June! Every week for this entire month I will translate at least two chapters per week of 'Majimoji Rurumo' and 'Tenshi-chan and Akuma-kun'! Not one, but two chapters each week! That means four chapters of manga each week for the month of June. Gintama will still be released as well as Hitoribocchi no chikyuu shinryaku. Nejimaki and Kiriwo will probably be on hiatus till August however. Either way plenty more Angels and Witches are on their way!



Someone: Look at that! It’s so pretty!
Take a picture!
Take it right here!
This is so much fun..
(Sfx- Zatshhii *shfft*)
(Sign- We are closed today.)
{It’s all over…}
{My Christmas is all over…}

146
5th spell: Christmas eve comes twice.

148
{Santa didn’t show up.}
{Well, it’s not like the existence known as Santa is something that I desperately believe in anyway.}
{But if the being known as God can have misfortune visited upon me frequently…}
{Then someday…}
Shibaki: A massive good luck downpour is bound to rain down on me!!

149
Shibaki: C’mon! A national event like Christmas has to mean that something decent is going to happen for me for once right?!
After all I’ve been pretty unlucky lately right?!
Don’tcha think so Chiro?!
Chiro: I ‘sppose.
You even got yerself some Death tickets.
(Handwritten- That was because of you!! Shut up!!)
Chiro: Hahahah!!!
Shibaki: Five hours on Christmas eve yesterday…..five friggin’ hours…
I was overjoyed when Karui invited me to the ‘stud and hottie’ eve party, but even that was brief…
Because the frickin’ train got held up for five hours!!
Announcer: Due to the snow’s effects…
We’ll be here just a bit longer…
Shibaki: Let me out!!
By the time I got there the whole shebang was over with! It was already 10pm!!

150
{Ah…living has become a pain for me….}
{That’s good! You ken just go ‘head and use all of those tickets then!}
Shibaki: Yeah, that’s still a no.
Rurumo: A guest.
Shibaki: Hmph..
Who is it? The lighthearted Shibaki of yesterday died because of a day like this…
Rurumo: The boy with long tea colored hair who was at the school festival.
Shibaki: Long….Oh you mean Karui.
He came here yesterday too…
(Handwritten- We’re having a party this evening…Do you think you can make it Shiba?)
Shibaki: I wonder what he wants.
Karui: You didn’t get to meet any of the girls at the party yesterday so I figured I’d bring one here…
Shibaki: Uoooooh!! You’re the bestest friend ever!!!
(Handwritten- Hello~)
Shibaki: AS IF THAT’D HAPPEN!!
GET OUT OF MY HEAD HOPES AND DREAMS!! YOU’VE BEEN EVICTED!!
Chiro: What’s this guy talkin’ about?
Rurumo: Ah.

151
Rurumo: I should tell you this now…
If you are going out today
That you shouldn’t use any magic.
Chiro: That’s right. Every month on the day of the new moon the Makai book store opens and we’ve gotta go there and get tha textbooks.
(Handwritten- Was that shop always there?)
Shibaki: Yeah, yeah.
(Handwritten- I have no intention of using the tickets anyway.)
Shibaki: Hm? Hold on…
Didn’t you tell me this yesterday?
{Huh?}

152
Karui: ‘Sup Shiba!
We’re having a party this evening…Do you think you can make it?
It’s limited to the High school students…
Though it’s a little on the far side. Thirty minutes by train at the Nogi City Party house.
The ‘Stud and Hottie’ hot stuff mixer!!
Though I told you before Shiba, if there’s a mixer that I’d invite you yeah?
There are gonna be tons of cuties there!
So? Gonna come?

153
Shibaki: Hah…whether I come or not doesn’t matter much since yesterday it took me five hours to…
Karui: Aw, whats with the lonely stuff? This is a limited time offer ,
‘cause…
Today’s Christmas Eve!
All right! I’ll see you later!
{Hey now…what’s this about ‘eve’ Karui?}
{What on earth are you talking about?}
{Wait a sec, I saw the illustration on this card yesterday right?}
{And what was with that earlier? Eve? Today’s the Eve?}
Shibaki: Is this what’s known as déjà vu?
Huh?!

154
{Uooooooooooh!!!}
{Even the ticket I had for repayment is here!!}
{I’ve got two written invitations?!}
{What the hell is going on here?! Did God slip up and cause a natural disaster?!}
{What is this?! Did something happen? Did….}
{Somehow today become yesterday? Or is yesterday today….}
Shibaki: Hey Mom!!
What day is today?!
Mom: The twenty fourth?
Oh, I’ve got to go to visit old man Seno, so I’m leaving you in charge of the house.
{There’s no mistaking it…}
Shibaki: Oh…well a friend just invited me somewhere….
Mom: Oh! I see…
{I remember this conversation too….}

155
{Somehow, I’m reliving the last twenty four hours!!}
TV: And the weather for today the twenty fourth shows that there is snow in the forcast…
We’ll be getting a white Christmas.
Brother: Wai! Snow!!
{Wait a minute, I remember having a discussion with the mysterious happenings club about this…}
Dude: If something like that were to happen…
There is no other proof than the main person’s memory itself, and as such there has been no scientific verification that this phenomenon has occurred….etc.
Dude: I see…
Repeating the same day at the same time while retaining your memories!!
This is what is called a ‘Time slip’!!
{So it really is a thing.}
{Is this a form of pity?}
{For the repeated misfortune I’ve experienced?}
{So you are up there…God…}
Shibaki: Heh…
Heheheheh….
(Handwritten- Whatssamatter? Your head finally break…?)

156
{God has granted me…}
{A chance to do the twenty fourth over again!!}
{Here I am! This is the Kitamiya semi express train at 4:52pm! This is when I was about to board.}
{And around the time the train got stopped!!}

157
Lady: Ah! It’s snow!
Dude: Ooh! Amazing!
It’s steadily coming down!
(Handwritten- Look at the snow!)
{Heh, listen to them make a fuss over this stuff.}
{Thanks to that snow you guys like so much, you’re going to be on a train for five hours!!}
Dude: The semi express train will be here soon.
Let’s hurry.
(Handwritten- Yeah.)
Shibaki: Heh, Granny, you might not want to ride that train.
Now shall I be off to that hot stuff party…
{But by bike!!}

158
{If I’m on this thing, the snow won’t stop me!!}
Shibaki: Heheh, nice traffic jam, for them that is!!
Good thing I decided against taking a taxi.
{This is only natural….after all it’s Christmas eve!}
{The illumination is dazzling.}
{Everyone should do their best!}
{After all it’s Christmas eve!}
{Wait for me my infinite number of sweeties!}
{It starts at 6.}
{Then after food…}
{Bingo and Karaoke time…}
{Then comes confession time!}
(Handwritten- Go out with me.)
(Handwritten- Yes…of course.)
{It’s gonna happen for sure! Today is my dazzling…}
{Dreamlike Christmas eve!!}

159
Shibaki: Uoooooohh!? My chain snapped?!
I guess cause I normally don’t ride this thing.
(Sign- Bike Shop Asahida.)
{Heh…}
{I just need to cool down!}
{God wouldn’t forsake me right before the important event over such a little thing!}
Lady: That’ll be 800 yen~!
Shibaki: Uooooh! That’ so cheap ma’am!!
Lady: Hahaha, a special price for Christmas.
Shibaki: Christmas rocks!!
Lady: Have a wonderful evening.
Shibaki: Sure will!

160
Dude: Dear!!

Mom: Uuuh..
Dude: Are you okay?! Your water just broke!!
Kid: Mooom!!
Dude: We have to go to a hospital…it’s going to be born!!
{What’s with…}
{This situation…}
Dude: T—T---Taxiiii!!

Mom: Uuugh…
{Hold on pops…}
{The taxi is stuck in a traffic jam right now…}
Mom: A rickshaw….there’s one below…Tarou you use that to carry me…
Tarou: That’s impossible for me…!

161
Mom: Hurry and pull! Your little sister is about to be born…
{Hey now…}
Tarou: Nnngh! Nnngh! I can’t mom! It’s not moving at all!!
Shibaki: I can…
Wait a second…
{Calm down me! I’m going to a party right?}
{There are going to be girls from other schools! Cute ones will be coming from all over! That’s what Karui said right?}
(Handwritten- Sure did!)
{I can’t allow myself to waver!! For the sake of my happiness God granted me this time!}
{That’s why…}
Tarou: Moooom!!
{Burn on me!}
{Get moving me!!}

162
Shibaki: Where’s the hospital kid?
Dammitall….

Mom: Thank you young man!!
Shibaki: I’m on my way to a party that I can’t miss!!

Doctors: Hurry!

Shibaki: Better meet me sometime in the future!!

The Bingo tourney’s probably over by now…
It’ll be fine! I can still make it to the Karaoke part!!

164
Shibaki: Awwright!!
{Presence of girls confirmed!!}
{I’m gettin’ excited here!!}
{They’re seriously…}
{A bunch of cuties here!!}
Shibaki: What’s uuuuuuup!!!!?
{Ah.}

165
Shibaki: Sorr—
Karui: Sorry.
Just before you got here Shiba, everyone split off into couples…

166
{Fuuuh…}
(Sfx- Sakuhh *sift*)
{And this is how the day God granted me turned out…}
{I don’t even have to do anything to be unlucky. I’m sure my bodily constitution is mostly misfortune right?}
{God…}
{After living through the twenty fourth again I understand it now…}
{There’s no such thing as Santa in this world.}
{Wha…}

167

168
Rurumo: I am apprentice witch Rurumo…
Christmas version.
Does this suit me?
{Who’s she talking to?}
{More like, what are you doing Rurumo?}
Rurumo: Red? Hey now…
Black’s more like you Rurumo you know what I mean?
But you’re still honestly adorable~
Shibaki: Wait, was that supposed to be me just now?
Rurumo: I see.

169
Shibaki; Wha…what are you doing?
(Side text- In the hallway…)
Rurumo: Hyaaah….!!
N---nothing.
I happened to be shopping and found this cheap thing..
No…they made me buy it so…
How much did you see?
Shibaki: Naw, I mean…I just got back.
{More like I’m an idiot….}

170
Shibaki: Santa’s been in my house since the very beginning.
I snagged a cake from the party I was at….you want some?
Rurumo: Cake?
Shibaki: It’s something you eat. It’s nice and sweet too.
Ooh! There are two lone candles in it too!
Chiro: Oooh! You’re back Rurumo? Ah! Cake!!
Shibaki: Damn.
Chiro: Ya shoulda seen your face! Runnin’ in all flustered in the middle of the night at 4am askin’ us to use some magic…
{When it finally became the 25th the memories of what happened in the wee hours of Christmas morning were revived…}
Shibaki: I—I---I can’t sleep!! I want to do the twenty fourth again…!!!
Chiro: So we used Rabul…
And you got to do the twenty fourth again.
{Turns out I was ‘God’.}
