Tiger and Bunny 17

It was a long time coming but here it is! Hopefully the next installment won't take this long.

To see the scanslations, just mosey on over here.



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

Announcer: We're on the scene at Suten Medaiyu district's beauty salon.
The employees and customers are being held hostage by a criminal wielding a weapon.
At this moment a hero is trying to negotiate with the criminal.
Criminal: Shut up!! Don't get any closer!!
(Sfx- Gurihhh)
Employee(?): Hii...
Criminal: Just before my date this guy screwed up my hair...
And the girl dumped me!! It's all his fault...
(Sfx- Mogogohh Grnnnd)
Criminal: Wha...

002
Tiger: Now!!

003
Announcer: They've done it!!
Wild Tiger with the assistance of Barnaby have apprehended the criminal!
(Sfx- Fuhh sfft)
Announcer: And behind them...
Is Origami Cyclone hard at work saving the remaining hostages!
Origami: Sankyuu~!!
Announcer: With the points he's gotten now, he's risen to the highest he's been this season, coming out at 4th place!

004
(Side text- There are feelings I want to convey.)
(Side text- Origami Cyclone: A “peace” loving Ninja hero. His real name is Ivan Karelin. The power he possesses is the ability to change his shape into whatever he touches, or “Camouflage”. While on HERO TV he seems to be a hero who has forsaken his heroism in exchange for promoting his logo, but he actually aims to be a hero who will not be abandoned.}

005
Tiger: 'Sup?
Good work out there.
Bison: You too.
Tiger: I'm feelin famished though.
Bison: Oh?
Wanna go somewhere?
What about you?
Origami: Ah...
Sorry...
Today's a bit...
Bison: Hm?
Got work to do?
Origami: No, It's not really that...
I'm really sorry!
Bison: What's with him? No need to be so cold.
(Sfx- Bataan clatter)
Tiger: That's right...

006
Tiger: He has to go and make a report.
{Two years ago.}
Ivan: Ahh...

007
Kotetsu: Hm?
Hey!
What's up?
What's with him? He looked really gloomy...
Barnaby: Beats me?
Kotetsu: You think...
It might have to do with this?
Barnaby: This should go without saying, but I'll say it anyway.
Please don't cause problems by sticking your nose into this.
Kotetsu: I'm not going to!

008
Barnaby: Well then,
I'll be going.
Kotetsu: Huh?
It was gonna get more interesting from here...
...Uh.
Where'd he go?
Crap....
I lost sight of 'em.
???: That water puddle there...
???: You're so young yet so considerate.
Kotetsu: That voice is...

009
Kotetsu: Wha?!
She's...quite a bit older....
Nun: I'm sorry for always bothering you...
Ivan: It's fine...
Nun: May you have a wonderful day.

010
Nun: Awwright!!
Kotetsu: Whattdya mean “awwright”?
I see...
So you've been meeting him in that getup for a while?
Your friend's um...
Err...
Nun: Edward.
Kotetsu: Right, right...
That guy's ability was amazing!
Being able to dive into the ground...

011
Koetstu: I know I shouldn't say anything but I can't say I understand why you do this again and again.
What happened that you're using your ability this way?
Nun: Even I...
Don't understand why I'm doing this.
Because of what happened during our school days...
Edward who had been arrested broke out of prison, and came to see me that day.

012
Ivan: And when he was once again arrested and taken away...
I said to him...
Let's both fix the mistakes we've made together!
Yet...
Although I promised we'd do it “together”...
I was never able to make myself go and meet him.
And then..

013
Kotetsu: And that's when you changed into a Nun?
Ivan: I could never find the courage....
Kotetsu: Courage?
Ivan: Does he really want to see me again?
I'm just not sure...
Kotetsu: You're still bothered by something like that?!
You guys made your peace right?
When you were attacked by that handprint guy!
Ivan: That's true but...
Kotetsu: Besides that you've been really working hard latel.
I'm sure your bud would wanna hear about your activities..
Ivan: Yes but...!!

014
Ivan: During those times...
I was just riding on the tension of the situation to deceive others wasn't I?
Kotetsu: Tension you say...
Ivan: When I take off my hero suit i'm still the same loser I always was until now.
Even I know how pathetic I am.
Kotetsu: Y'know Origami...
Ivan: Huh?
What is that person doing?

015
Ivan: Did he drop something?
Kotetsu: Hey!
Hanging out there is dangerous!
Guy: Haaaah...

016
Kotetsu: What..
The hell?!
The road is becoming like water....

017
Police: Hey...
What the hell?!
Dowaaaah!!

018
Police: We were transporting a criminal when we were attacked!!
The culprit is a NEXT!!
Requesting urgent back up!!
Hey! Get a hold of yourself!!
(Sfx- Nyarii griin)
Police: Guwah!!

019
Ivan: The liquification stopped...?
Kotetsu: Hey!!
You there!!
Whoa!!
Ivan: Stop doing this!!!
???: Shut up!!
Ivan: Uwaah!!
Kotetsu: Owaah..
Aggh!!

020
(Sfx- Fuhh fuhhh sffft)
Kotetsu: Gah?!
Dammit?!
Ivan: Mr...
Tiger!
Kotetsu: Forget about me! Go after them!!
Ivan: Okay!
???: It's cool man!
Come on out Havi!!
What the heck are you doing man?
Before things get really hot!!
Ivan: Stop it!!

021
Dude: Get out of my way!!
Bastard!!
Wha...?

022
Ivan: You can't hurt anyone else more than this!
Dude: Bastarrd!!
Kotetsu: Just knock it off.

023
Ivan: Your leg...don't tell me you forced your way out...
Kotetsu: I had to make a hole in the road though..
Dude: Guh..
Kotetsu: Hey! Behind you!
Ivan: Uwaaah!!
Dude: Havi!

024
Havi: What the hell are you doing?
Dude: Eh?
Havi: When the hell did I ask you to save me?
Dude: You're my buddy!! Of course I was gonna help you out!!
Havi: You dumbass!
Now you...
Will get arrested because of this whole situation...

025
Havi: DO YOU THINK THAT MAKES ME HAPPY?!
Dude: Havi...
Then when you were in the car....
You were telling me to “stop”....?
I see...

026
Kotetsu: There's no way to know what your buddy is thinking.
It's natural to be afraid...but that's all the more reason people gotta stay close to one another.
Ivan: Huh?

027
Kotetsu: So you have to meet 'im face to face...
And trade words without running away.
Ivan: Mr. Tiger.
???: What are you sounding so cool for...
With a leg like that?

028
Lloyds: Looking pretty flashy there aren't we?
(Sfx- Gohh thok)
Kotetsu: Mr. Lloyds~
Lloyds: You do realizing that working hard during your off time doesn't result in points...?
Kotetsu: Soory~
Well,
In any case...
Good luck Origami!!
(Sfx- Pon pat)

029
Kotetsu: So as for Bunny...
Lloyds: He's already been contacted.
Kotetsu: Figures...
Ivtetsu: If you run away from this, you ain't a man.
Yeah, right...

030
Ivan: All right.
{Two years later.}
(Sfx- Pushuhhh shffft)
(Sfx- Tahh tap)

031
Announcer: So what was the clincher in this criminal's apprension?
Barnaby: Rather than being an assistance to us, I should say that they looked after this guy here.
Tiger: Why did you have to put it that way?!
Barnaby: I was praising you.
He's got far too much interest in other's affairs,
And he's always forcefully involving himself in their territory....
I think he really is quite incredible.

032
Tiger: I can't tell if you're praising me or not!
(Sfx- Kushh laugh)
Guard: Go right in.
(Sfx- Gachaa clack)
(Sfx- Pataan click)
Ivan: Hey...
