Saike Once Again 15

And Saike Once again. This chapter was a lot of fun. I hope that we'll start getting some answers about the ability users and whatnot this time around though.



Also I have a plurk now, so feel free to friend me there and stuff.

Thank you so much!
What's your name...?
(Sfx- Byuuunn wiffff)

I have to hurry or he'll choke on that mochi!
(Handwritten- I have to hurry!!)
(Sfx- Dooooon)

004
{My name is Kuzushiro Saike.}
{I'm a third year Middle school student.}
Teacher: Three laps left!
Quit dawdling and run like you mean it!
(Sfx- Pi pi pi pi whee whee whee)
(Sfx- Doka doka doka tak tak tak)
(Handwritten- 'Kay)
Saike: Huff...
Puff..
(Sfx- Deen wibble)
Teacher: Kuzushiro...
You're the last around these laps....!!
(Handwritten- Get a grip!)
Saike: Huuuf...
{Ordinarily I'm just a normal middle school student in the pursuit of knowledge.}

005
Saike: And to think I run around the city every day as a part of my heroic duties...
(Handwritten- Don't say crazy things...)
(Sfx- Hahii huff)
{You see I have a secret “ability”.}
{And that is...}
{The ability to drown myself in Mogura pond in the third district...}
{I return to 7am of that day.}
{I use that power of mine to help people who are in trouble.}
{Thus I'm running around the city day and night.}
Saike: I seem to do a lot of running in the morning especially....
For now if I were to remak on something...
It'd be how tough P.E. Is today.
Teacher: You're too slow Kuzushiro!
(Handwritten- I wanna go home right now...)
(Sfx- Dooon)

006
(Handwritten- On the way back, wanna do some Spo-Cha?)
(Handwritten- Oh sure! Let's go!)
(Sfx- Kin kon kan kon ding dong ding dong)
Mikan: Saike~!
(Sfx- Tah tmp)
Saike: Mikan.
Mikan: What's wrong? You look worn out.
Saike: It's just normal tiredness that's all....
Mikan: Oh. Yeah! Thanks for lending me that reference book earlier!
(Handwritten- Welp, laters~)
Mikan: Today I'll be going to the “Beauty salon” so I'll come to your place later on to return it.
(Handwritten- 'Kay. See you later.)
(Sfx- Pinpoooon Ding dooong)
(Handwritten- Yes?)
Saike: Mikan?
(Sfx- Gachaah clatter)

007
(Sfx- Egu eguh sob sob)
Mikan: Saaaike....
(Sfx- Dooon)
Saike: What happened Mikan?!
(Handwritten- And your hair!!)
Mikan: The beautician fell asleep while cutting may hair...
Dude: Ah.
(Sfx- Usura usura snrr snrr)
(Sfx- Chokiii cut)
Mikan: Eh?
(Handwritten- Isn't it horrible?)
Saike: That sort of thing actually happens?!
(Handwritten- That guy's pretty dangerous then!)
Mikan: I can't go to school tomorrow with my hair like this...
Saike: You're exaggerating...
Mikan: But, but....
Saike: Okay, I get it. Just leave it to me.
Mikan: Huh?

008
{I'll reverse time and suggest a different beauty parlor.}
{And that will solve the problem.}
{So that's why...}
{You shouldn't cry anymore Mikan.}
(Sfx- Dopoooon blooosh)
Teacher: Three laps left!
(Sfx- Pi pi pi pi whee whee whee)
(Sfx- Pi pi pi whee whee hwee)
(Sfx- Pi pi pi whee whee whee)
Saike: Damn....

009
Saike: Returning to the morning of today means...
(Sfx- Hahi hahi wheeze wheeze)
Saike: Means having to do “P.E” all over again!!
(Sfx- Dooon)
{Doing this for a second time is harsh...!!}
{Knowing something is tough just makes it tougher!!}
(Sfx- Hiii)
Saike: Mikan...
There's a “Paris collection” active in the neighborhood. Apparently some beauticians come to it as well...
Maybe you should go there?
(Handwritten- Here's a map.)
(Handwritten- Googled it.)
Mikan: Hm? Why do you look so worn out?
Saike: I'm fine.
(Sfx- Pinpoooon dingdooong)
Saike: Yes?
She went to a different beautician after I recommended it so things should be fine.
(Sfx- Gachaa clack)
Saike: Mikan?

010
Mikan: Saike....
(Sfx- Dodoooon)
Saike: Things got even worse!!!
(Handwritten- It's all rolled up!)
Mikan: The person at Paris collection did this...
(Handwritten- Ooh it's incredible!!)
(Handwritten- Perfect!)
(Handwritten- Eh?)
(Handwritten- This is too advanced for me...)
Saike: This one was too pushy huh...
(Sfx- Gabiiiin Shock)
Mikan: I can't go to school tomorrow like this....
Saike: D—Don't worry about it.
Leave it to me.
{So that's why...}
{You shouldn't cry anymore Mikan.}

011
Saike: This is the last time...
This is the last time!!
(Sfx- Hahi hahi wheeze wheeze)
Mikan: Saike....
(Sfx- Biyoooon boooing)
(Handwritten- Sari-chan's grandma?)
Saike: There won't be a fourth time!
There won't be a fourth time!
(Sfx- Hah hah)
Mikan: Saike.....
(Sfx- Pikaaah fwaaash)
(Handwritten- A glowing mushroom)
Saike: No more no more!!
No moooooore!!!
Mikan: Saike.....
(Sfx- Boro boro boro bloop blooop)
(Sfx- Uwaaaah!!)

012
(TN- I can't really read the marked out stuff due to shitty raw, but the bottom few are Gungunil//Hamada beauticians//Harmon//Dejavu de-nile)
{I can't let this weariness get any worse.....}
{But my “Intention to keep running until her hair is cut perfectly” is reaching it's limit...!!}
Mikan: Hm?
Having a study meet at your house Saike?
Saike: Yeah.
So why not just go to the beauty salon tomorrow?
That way I don't have to do today's P.E. Class over again...
Mikan: P.E.?
Saike: Ah! Just mumbling to myself!!
Mikan: Hmm..
But you know...
Tomorrow is...
Saike: C'mon, it won't hurt!
Please?!

013
Saike: You said that you were having a tough time studying for exams right?
{If it's tomorrow I'll repeat it as many times as you want!}
{I just can't deal with repeating P.E. Anymore!}
Mikan: Okay, lets do that!
Saike: Really?!
Mikan: After all you're doing this for my sake right?
Thanks Saike.
I can deal with my hair another time!
Saike: Hm?
Mikan: Okay! See you after school!
{What a lifesaver! Now I don't have to run in P.E. Anymore!}

014
{That's right there's no need for me trouble myself with doing something like that over and over.}
{As long as I'm helping people with high efficiency, then it's cool if I take it easy a bit!}
{All right, now I can relax a little...}
Teacher: Hey Takagi...
Your hair is a mess ain't it?
Get it cut by tomorrow, hear?
(Sfx- Kusha kusha rub rub)
Takagi: Yeah I get it, teach!
Tomorrow's when we're taking pictures for the Graduation album right?
{Ah...}

015
{I can't go to school tomorrow like this..}
{You're exaggerating.}
{Hm, but you know...}
{Tomorrow is..}
{After all you're doing this for my sake right?}
{Thanks Saike!}
{I can deal with my hair another time!}
{I was given this power to save others...}
{Mikan...}
{And other people.}
{Yet I've been only thinking about how to use it to benefit myself...}
Saike: Oooororrr..
Oraaaaaah!!!
{What the heck am I doing!!}
{Whether it's easy or difficult, I have to help others!!}

016
{RUN LIKE THE WIIIIIIND!!}
Saike: ORAAAAAAAGH!!!

017
{YOU STUPID IDIOT!!}
{NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I GOTTA REPEAT IT}
Saike: NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I'LL KEEP ON RUNNING!!

018
(Sfx- Pinponn dingdooong)
Saike: Mikan...
(Sfx- Gachaa clack)
(Sfx- Yoro wibble)
Saike: Was this beautician no good too....?
Mikan: Hm?
Everything's right as rain~
(Handwritten- Sharaaaan glitter)
(Handwritten- The place was kind of far though.)

019
Mikan: Thanks so much Saike~
(Handwritten- What's wrong?)
Saike: ahah..
Ahaaha...
That's awesome...
(Sfx- Bataaaan thunk)
Mikan: Wha—Saike?!
What's wrong?!
{I searched for a beautician forty two times.}
{Which means I ran about 3000 meters in P.E. ...over forty two times.}
{Basically I alone ran a forty two km full marathon over a three lap surplus.}
Dude: Okaay~ I'm going to take the picture now!
Smiling Mango chocolate!
{This album is one I'll always remember.}
{The memory of my youth where I ran and ran to the tune of forty two times, Mikan's hair style..}
{And...}
{The feeling of exhaustion are things I'll remember too.}
