RYOKO 12

RYOKO might just be getting scanslated regularly again! I hope! In any case I'll be caught up with it tomorrow morning, until Japan shames me several hours later with the very next one.



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

VOL 12: FORKED ROAD
MITSUHASHI KAITO

002
(Sfx- Riooooooohhh *fwhoooh*)
Rice: So you’re the germ, huh?
Ryoko: Aaah…wh—why would you….
Zen: Ahahah…
I’ve got no luck…
(Side text- The third Rice cuts Zen down…!!)
Ryoko: General!

003
{I have to stop the blood or else…!!}
(Sfx- Guguguguguh)
Zen: Ohhh, you’re trying to push the blood back in?
You really are a lifesaver….
Ryoko: Just stop talking!
Rice: We’ve been searching for you…
Germ.
Ryoko: What are you planning to do with him?

004
Rice: There’s no point in you knowing this,
As you are about to die.
The moment we gain complete control of this land,
There will be no need or value for humanity.
Ryoko: So the ingredients…
Intend to rule the world…?
Rice: We do not intend to rule anything..
We simply intend to fixed humanity’s warped sense…
Of the strong eating the weak.

005
(Sfx- GOgogooooooh *fwhoooooom*)
(Sfx- Dohh *tokhh*)
Shirataki: Hey, is this all of our stuff?
Gido: Yeah, this is all that wasn’t burnt up.
Kid: We should get away from here now…
Shirataki: The general hasn’t come back with the gas mask!
Dammit, I have to go look for him…
Gido: Vice captain!

006
(Sfx- DOooohh *fwoooom*)
Gido: The ingredients are gathering together!
Kid: Did they notice all the noise we were making?
Shirataki: Dammit, what are we gonna do?
(Sfx- Gggooooohhh *roaaaaar*)
Gido: Let’s take what we have and get the hell out of here!

007
(Sfx- Baahhh *fwappp*)
(Sfx- Bitsuhhh *Sffft*)
Gido: Guh!
You bastard…
(Sfx- Gogogohhh *rmmmble*)
(Sfx- Gohh *thud*)
Gido: Uwaaah!!

008
Gido: Whoa…
The whole damn thing is falling apart…?
Everything’s breaking apart! Run for it!!
(Sfx- Zugagagagagaga *dssshhh*)
Shirataki: You guys go on first!
I’m going to bring the General and that girl back!
(Sfx- Zazazaaah *ssshhh*)

009
Shirataki: What the hell are you doing Gido?! Don’t screw with me!
Gido: The ingredients are chasing us too, y’know?!
I’m not going to let you get separated from us too!
Shirataki: Guh..
Let me go you idiot!!
Generaaal!!
(Sfx- Gogogogogogo *rmmmmble*)

010
Rice: People have one-sidedly eaten far too much.
Humanity is now…
No more than a harmful influence on the ecosystem.
We will weed out the useless livestock known as humanity…
And give birth to a whole new order!
You all have lost.
From now on,
The annihilation of humanity will be peace incarnate.

011
Ryoko: It’s true…
The world of people may have long since ended, but…
I am not yet ready to give up my daily life with my family…
Nor will I let you have our dinner table!
Rice: Those words…
I see…
You’re…
It would seem that the best course of action is to eliminate you here.
(Sfx- Paki paki paaki *crack crack crack*)

012
(Sfx- POta pota *drip drip*)
(Sfx- POta pota pota *drip drip drip*)
Rice: Hmph…
What inopportune timing.
{It won’t attack..? Because of the rain?}
(Sfx- Zaaaaaah *Sshhhhhhh*)
Rice: My decomposition is advancing, my movement stiff.
It matters not.
I will have plenty of opportunities after this.

013
Rice: People comment that they can rely on a physical strength greater than their own…
You truly are an irritating bunch…
Child of that woman…
Someday I will kill both you and your parent.

014
Ryoko: Huh?
{Mom…}
Ryoko: W—
Wait…

015
Ryoko: You know about my mother?!!
(Sfx- Zaaahhhh *Shhhhhh*)
Ryoko: If you do, tell me where she is!
Hey! Is she….
Is my mom alive?!
Please….
Tell me..
(Sfx- Zaaaaaahhh *Sshhhhhh*)

016
???: Maaaan this rain has got to be tough on the rice.
???: I give it a warm welcome though…
???: Parsley…
You really do smell damn fine.
???: Teehee..
(Sfx- Zaaaahhhh *sffffh*)
???: Ah, it’s back.
Welcome back.
Wanna share an umbrella?

017
Rice: I found the germ.
Now we can plant the bait and exterminate those cattle.
I need to raise more brethren so we are headed north.
???: Ooookay,
Got it.
It’s sure become tough to stay alive as a human…
Right, Parsley?
Parsley: I’m not human though.

018
(Sfx- Zaaaahhh *Shshhh*)
(Sfx- Kakoon Kakkon kakon *clop clop clop*)
(Side text- Her mother is alive? Just a little bit of the world’s truth has appeared…for now the danger of the Rice has faded, but in Ryoko’s mind is…)
