(1st frame): I was five when I discovered my abilities.

(2nd frame): My parents found out about them when I was seven.

(3rd frame): After seeing me in such a state, my mother told me carefully.

(4th frame): Mu-Yee, you're a bit different from other people. So you need to keep your powers a secret.

(5th frame): But you have nothing to be worried about. Your dad and I will keep you safe.

(6th frame): So I didn't think of it (interlaced frame: as a big problem or anything.)

(7th frame): But one day,

I saw my mother sobbing uncontrollably.

(9th frame): I knew from the start why.

(10th frame): Ah, mom

(11th frame): must be crying because of me.

(1st frame): Mu-Yee, your teacher is very frustrated.

(2nd frame): I'm concerned about my lovely student and you can't even comprehend that

Why do you wander about doing whatever you please like that...

(4th frame): Explain to me how you're 'concerned' about me in that pose. (italicised text below: And what about the part where you pick your ears?)

sfx: pick

Hahh?

(5th frame): Huh?

Me?

Page 7

(1st frame): Yeah.

The president told us to bring you and Choi Mu-Yee.

(2nd frame): Wait the president is Park Woo-Shin...

(3rd frame): I don't want to go. (text below: abruptly)

What?

(4th frame): If I go with them I'm going to have an accidental death.

italicised text: There's going to be a news article about it!!

text above figure: Fall down!

For... for you to reject the President's summon like that.

text above girl's hair: Surprised

(5th frame): What's with this girl? I know she's cute and all but still.

Her chest is quite big too.

(6th frame): Everything about her is flawless

boxed text: Lee Hoo-Mahn (1st year)
Goals for the Future - Head of the Entertainment Industry

Page 8

(1st frame): ... Well, if you refuse there's nothing we can do about it. We'll be leaving.

They're giving up too early!!

(2nd frame): Just... just because your chest is a bit bigger shouldn't mean you get to be so rude.

There's no connection there.

(3rd frame): This isn't over!

We're reporting this to the president so prepare yourself!

(4th frame): My name is Da Hae-Ra!!

Da Hae-Ra (2nd Year)
Student Council Vice-President who has an Inferiority Complex

Make sure you remember who I am!!

Is this a declaration of war?!

(1st frame): sfx: stomp

sfx: step

sfx: slam

(2nd frame): Gah...

sfx: stupefied

(3rd frame): Since when has this school been so chaotic? [text below: Was it always like this?]

After you transfered in to our school.

(4th frame): I think it's because I look so plain.

sfx: sweatdrop

Is there something wrong with me?

(5th frame): I've heard that she was dating Woo-Shin sunbae?

She could be rivals with Choi Mu-Yee.

Could she be affiliated with the Student Council?

Page 10

(1st frame): What's her true identity?

(3rd frame): If she turns out to be the 'Rule'

Page 11

(1st frame): I'd no longer have to follow his commands.

(2nd frame): Regardless of whether if the situation changes or not

(3rd frame): we absolutely need the 'Rule'.

(5th frame): Is that the rule's stength?

(7th frame): ...no...

Page 12

(1st frame): The 'Rule' is a bit more...

What's wrong?

(2nd frame): Are you scared?

-? What was it?

(3rd frame): I'm thankful for your thoughts but

this is something I've decided on my own.

(4th frame): Who's memories are these?

It's not because I have to do this

(5th frame): but instead this is something only I can do.

The hidden feelings buried within these memories

Page 13

(1st frame): Thanks for lending me your strength.

(2nd frame): If it's concerning the past

then shall I get rid of that as well?

(3rd frame): The hazy sadness and the liability.

(4th frame): - who could...?

(5th frame): President!!

sfx: gasp

(6th frame): ...huh?

I went to pick her up. But -

Page 14

(1st frame): sfx: stomp

(2nd frame): sfx: slide

sfx: slam

(3rd frame): text with arrow: Not Here

(4th frame): Do you know where Kang Ji-Young and Choi Mu-Yee went?

sfx: glance

I... I'm not sure.

sfx: step

(5th frame): She always has to be such a nuisance and make more work for people.

(6th frame): Um, excuse me.

Page 15

(1st frame): Are you looking for her because of

what happened this morning?

(2nd frame): This morning...?

...Ah...

text above girl's head: I hope you trip and fall!

(3rd frame): It's not because of that.

It's going to be a pain trying to catch her for that.

(4th frame): I'm relieved.

I thought you were going to get angry at her for that.

(5th frame): Wait a second, that's a girl's voice.

(6th frame): I was extremely worried about that!

(7th frame): text: drag

Page 16

(1st frame): So you're really not gonna say anything?

If you were in my shoes, would you?

(2nd frame): What... What could you possibly dislike - where is there a concerned teacher like this anywhere in the world?

You're a bit late for that?
You're a bit late for that?
You're a bit late for that?

(3rd frame): By chance...

(4th frame): If I consulted you, are you insecure that we'll stop being able to talk on a personal level?

(5th frame):If you recieved some consulting it's not like anything's gonna change -

it's not like you're going to stop being a deliquent, right?

(6th frame): It's not like your parents are going to interefere

or the school chairman is gonna care - am I correct?

This woman... she can REALLY piss a person off with her politeness

(7th frame): Hmm..

If that's not it then -

Page 17

(1st/2nd frame): You must simply hate the way I try and manipulate you, correct?

(3rd frame): sfx: glare

(4th frame): You already know then.

From now on don't bother me anymore with your pointless bantering.

- It's quite simple.

Page 18

(1st frame): Even if you pretend to care

you're all the same.

(3rd frame): You must be misunderstanding something.

(4th frame): Those people aren't the only ones that have a biased opinion.

Page 19

(1st frame): You're also looking at those people with a prejudiced eye.

(3rd frame): Once you break something, you're better off just throwing it away.

(4th frame): - That's how everyone percieves things.

(5th frame): ...

Once you're able to talk about it, come find me.

(5th frame): I'll be waiting.

Page 20

(1st frame): But

sfx: stare

(2nd frame): Keep this in mind.

sfx: gasp

(3rd frame): My sessions come out to be about 5000 won per visit.
(TLer's notes: roughly about $5)

...you're joking right?
text below: I'm not interested, okay?

(4th frame): ...Shit -

Whether if it's this person or that person, they take me for an idiot...

They think they know the position I'm in.

Page 21

(1st frame): Huh...

(2nd frame): sfx: chirp chirp

(3rd frame): sfx: drag

(4th frame): Student Council Room

(5th frame): Come join the student council, the both of you.

(6th frame): ... ...what?

You heard me. Starting from tomorrow, you'll be serving the student council.

Fill out the application form before you leave.

Page 22

(1st frame): What!!

You think you guys can decide on things like this by yourself?

sfx bubble: clench

(2nd frame): sfx: stamp

text above arrow: form

sfx: stamp

(3rd frame): You guys are immoral!!!

text below:
Teacher~
I have the forms right here -

(4th frame): text above guy's head: Give it here!

text bubble below: No

That's not what's important here. Just hear me out.

text faded: Could it be women-related by chance?

(5th frame): What?

(6th frame): In order to join the student council you need to maintain a certain grade point average.

If you can't maintain your grades then you can't be a member of the student council.

(7th frame): So why's that a problem?

sfx above head: Ah that's -

Take a look at this. (text below: It's Ji-Young's report card.)

Page 23

(1st frame): text on paper: Ji-Young's report card

(2nd frame): Is this a fake? Tell me the truth.

(3rd frame): Anyway... if her grades don't pick up then that means she'd be ineligible...

She wouldn't be able to "cross this river" unless we keep her under observation.

(4th frame): So -

you two over there.

Page 24

(1st frame): I want to see an improvement on Ji-Young's next test.

sfx: shock

(2nd frame): Don't joke around!!!!

Why do I have to trouble myself with such an annoying matter?

(3rd frame): sfx: roarrrrr

sfx: turn

(4th frame): sfx: breathe

Anyway... if I don't see any improvement by her next test

(5th frame): then I'll kill you.

text (most left): Looks like you can't be perfect in all 3 matters of importance

text (second left): See. If you have big breasts then your head is empty!

text (middle): Looks like we're going to have to start with her Korean.

text bubble (right): Why me?!

(3rd frame): It looks like he's still unaware but...

(4th frame): Heh - it's not like it matters.

sfx: smile

(5th frame): sfx: tug

(6th frame): Now, find me the things that have been lost.

sfx: pat pat

Page 26

(1st frame): Whatever it is -

(2nd frame): you foolish child.

YOYOYO DISU IZU DINKU-SAMA IN THE PLACE TO BE WHICH IS #DFCG (yo that rhymes yoyoyo)
Ah, do you guys smell that? It's the scent of working on a new volume of Trump! Considering the fact that we've started using tank RAWs from chapter 3 on up... we have the volume cover AND a Table of Contents this go around hoho. I also have the first volume of Trump! in tankobon so if we do decide to re-release Trump! in HQ... you'll be able to see it along with some nice color pages one of these days. Anyway, I'd like to give a great BIG shoutout to my BESTO FREND TCABF for editing in such a timely and efficient manner. The guy who was supposed to do it bailed out on me and I got sick of waiting so I got him to do it instead~~ Thank us by joining the irc channel (#dfcg @ irc.irchighway.net) and let us know you appreciate our hard work. :D
