Round.2 The Real Juice Bomber!

52
p1

p2
When it comes to rock, the strongest player in the industry is Coda Records
It's the best possible stage if you're starting out...

p3
This is the success story of the reborn Iwamaki Rikitarou!

53
p1
Yes... I have been reborn together with this Jimi Hen hairdo
I'm not that faint-hearted half-assed bastard I've been up till now!!

p2/3
Alright, more spirit!
The battle commences!!

54
p1/2

p3
Ehhh---!?

55
p1
A producer from Coda Records...
//Will come to watch Jimi Head's live...!?
So that talk of you having connections... it was true?

p2
Aw, come on! You didn't believe me?
I might've been escaping from reality, but I'm a decent fellow who doesn't tell lies!

p3
Well...
There's no point in pretending in front of you at this stage, so I'll tell you

p4
At first, it seemed that he had completely forgotten about me...
It's been 8 years, and I didn't have an appointment
Not only wouldn't they hear me out, they wouldn't even let me past the reception...

56
p1
Since I had no other choice...
//I sat myself down there and started dialing them directly!
They gave up after 3 hours ♥
cop: H... Hey you...
riki: Let go, KORA!
riki: Hellooo, this is Iwamakiii!
riki: It's written Iwamaki, so it means rock 'n' roll!
//riki: Please connect me with Tamejiri-san, who's in charge of rock!

p2
nb: Ha...
nb: Haha...
You're lucky you didn't get arrested...

p3
Well, that's how it went down
It's like you have to pass a hurdle in order to get them to listen

p4
I will stake my life...
And press forward desperately

57
p1
riki: If you... Can't ride this mood, you'd better get off before it's too late
I... I don't really feel like quitting
Right?
We... Talked it over seriously after that incident at the family restaurant

p2
If we're doing this band thing anyway, then doing it seriously would be so much more fun...
We'll try to become pros together with you, Ricky-kun!
But I'll still be going to college diligently ♥

p3
Kouichi...
//Tsukasa...

p4
Oh yeah! Let's hustle up a big turnout of all the guys from college
Why don't we pretend like we're a popular band?
We can give out original T-shirts too

p5
Yeah! That stuff's important!
Yo! As you'd expect from the son of a company president ♥
That'll really make a different impression on them~~~...

58
p1
I... I'm ashamed of myself for doubting your motivation!
I'm now... moved so deeply ♥

p2
Aw-riiight! There's one month left until the live...
//Put some spirit into it and lets'...
GYOOO!
GYOOO!!
Umm... What's this "gyooo" thing...?
Well... I just went with the mood...

p3
How many years has it been...?

59
p1
sign: Iwamaki

p2
Since playing the guitar has felt so fun?
Seriously...

p3

p4
I didn’t expect
That it would feel so good!

60
p1/2

p3
Awww~~~ This is so good! Super spicy curry is the best ♥
I've had to restrain myself from any stimulating things all this time~~~...

p4
Champ~~~... I can understand how you'd be happy after being liberated from moderation...
But from now on the entertainment industry is your main job... Please don't get fat~~~!?

61
p1
ooishi: Don't worry! Even after retirement, I'm not missing out on my 10 km of roadwork every morning
Oh, that's amazing!
In the end, people who have been boxers for 10 years are different from the rest!

p2
More importantly...
How is it going with that program we discussed the other day?

p3
Well~~~... The higer-ups too were ecstatic that you'd be able to participate in it, Champ!
After all, we'll have you and the host Johnny Kitajima-kun as two great attractions!
tl note: Johnny is a term for male idol which comes from the Johnny & Associates talent agency, responsible for launching various boy bands.

p4
The program name will be "Big Stone Thunder's The! Fist Fighting Dojo!!"
The champ Ooishi Raita will reform delinquents overflowing with energy through boxing
//---Well, the overall outline hasn't changed much from our meeting the other day!

62
p1
Also... There will a three month deadline for them
Then we'll have them take the pro test...

p2
ooishi: So~~~mehow this plan sounds like a ripoff from somewhere...
Don't worry about it!
If we all talked like that, we wouldn't be able to knock programs off one after another!

p3
Besides, the pro tests have become difficult lately...
Half of the guys who are decent enough fail it...
//And you want three month amateurs there~~~?

p4
Champ... To be honest, we don't care if they pass or fail! In fact, our camera will follow them even after that...
That's where there will surely be human drama!

63
p1
This is a documentary that surpasses a sports variety show!
The point to bear in mind is whether we'll be able to gather amusing amateurs!
Well... That will be our job ♥

p2
Amusing amateurs... (small): Is this a comedy show!?

p3
Speaking of amusing, that fellow from the other day...
Uwaaaa...
If you properly train a guy like him, someone who can get revitalized again after being cornered, I wonder how it would turn out... (small): Although he might be too old for a boxer...?

64
p1

p2
Nuuuu

p3
I'm sure the first song doesn't have a good punch...
We need a bold hook here before the verse...
But we only have one week left~~~... Maybe I shouldn't do anything unnecessary---!?

p4
Duuuuh---! I'm blocked!

65
p1
Oh... "Stairway to Heaven"...

p2
Hey, Aneki!
tl note: Aneki = term for older sister
It's been a while... What's up?

p3
You got free tickets to the Tokyo Land park?
//Heeeh How nice... Aozora is probably happy!
So, you're coming right now?
//Yep... Yep...

p4
Ehhh!? Me too~~~~!?
No, sorry... Right now, I can't really---...

p5/6

66
p1
Well...
It's been a while, and I did want to see you, Aneki, and Aozora too...

p2
OK, I got it!
I'll take a breather and go with you!

p3

67
p1
Hmm~~~? Rikitarou isn't here...?
Mama~~~ Let's go in already~~~
//Come on---...

p2
We were supposed to meet by the entrance...

p3
riki: Hey, Aneki!
riki: I've been here this whole time though?
nb: Out of style~~~
sister: Geh!?
nb: Startled!

68
p1
sister: Wha... What's up with that? That head... Like it got caught in a bomb blast!!
aozora: A bomb, a bomb
aozora: Smoke all over---!
riki: Well... It's something like an expression of my determination... (small): A bomb...?

p2
riki: But Aozora...
aozora: What is it, Bomberman?

p3
riki: I haven't seen you in a little while, and look how big you've gotten~~~!
aozora: I didn't get big!
aozora: I was second tallest in the Violet class from the start!

p4
Err... How old are you now---...?

69
p1
Look here, Bomberman!
//I told you I was 4 on my last birthday!
So now I'm 5!

p2
aozora: Mama~~~... I got Bomberman's boogers on my finger~~~!
sister: Look here! It should be Uncle Rikitarou, shouldn’t it!?
sister: Sorry, Rikitarou... He's become so mischievous lately...
riki: Ha... Haha... Boys will be boys...

p3
aozora: Rikitarou!
riki: Now he just calls by my name...

p4
I wanna piggyback---!

70
p1
Look here, Aozora!
Don't be so selfish!

p2
aozora: Nooooo---! Piggyback~~~~!
sister: Come now...
riki: Ahh, it's alright
//riki: Here! Aozora!

p3
sister: I'm sorry, Rikitarou!
aozora: Yeah---!
riki: Hold on tight

p4
ao: Aw-right... Left
//ao: Left---, left---!
ao: Move more---!
riki: Guguh... I'll teach all about how scary adults can be after this...!
