Girl (not in speech-bubble): おいっ Hey!
Thinking big： が 放課後 俺に用!? Wants to meet me after school!?
Page 5
Satou 何の用？ 時間ねーんだけど 俺 What did you want? I haven't really got time for this
Koganei あ ゴメン… すぐ終わるから あの…えっと… …あたし… ずっと前から サトー君のこと… Ah... I'm sorry, but it won't take a minute Uhm... You know... ..I.. Since a long time ago, Satou-kun has always been...
satou ー待てよ やっぱ俺 時間ねーわ Wait a sec Nope, I don't have time for this
Koganei ええっ…!? Eeh...!?
Satou オレの全ての恋人達に 別れを告げに行かなきゃ ならなくなっちまった… 今 出会っちまったから オレの運命の女性にな… I need to go and inform all my lovers of the fact that I don't need them anymore Since I just happened to meet her, you know My destined woman
Koganei …サ… サトー君 <３ ...Sa... Satou-kun! <3
Others やめろ その寸劇 Stop acting like an idiot!
Page 6
Guy: 何が恋人達だ ああー くそおっ！ なんで こんあショボい奴に小金井麻央が… What the hell do you mean "your lovers"!? Aw, shit! Why does this shabby guy get Koganei Mao's attention?
SFX: 痛てえええてえてってってええ *scream of indescribable pain*
Thinking box 高校入って３ヶ月 早くも 恋の予感 It's been three months since I started high school and already; a premonition of love
Thinking: 小金井ちゃん… どんあ子だろ？ 間近で見た事ねーんだよな 江口が「すげーカワイイ」とか ウワサしてんのは よく聞くけど …………… 江口の女の好み ダサイからなあ… I wonder what kind of girl Koganei-chan is... I can't remember ever getting a good look at her Eguchi says things like her being "shockingly cute" and I often hear rumors about her... .............. Although Eguchi's taste in women isn't exactly sophisticated
Page 7
Koganei あ サトー君？ Ah Satou-kun?
Thinking ダサイとか思ってゴメン江口 あ それと俺 恋しました I'm sorry for calling you unsophisticated, Eguchi. Oh, that and I've fallen in love.
Page 8
Koganei 小金井です 初めましてっ ごめんねー 急に呼び出して Nice to meet you, I'm Koganei I'm sorry for suddenly calling you out like this
Satou ああはっ! ぜ！ ぜんぜんヒマだよ Ah! I've got absolutely nothing else to do anyway!
Guy: 超ビビってんじゃねーか ヘタレヤローが…！ This incompetent bastard is scared shitless, isn't he!
Thinking やべー！ と真ん中だっ! こんな事あってイイのか ッ落ち着け俺！ カッコよく受け応えするだ！ Oh shit, bullseye! Is it really okay for something like this to happen? I need to calm down! I need to be cool when talking with her!
Koganei …なんだよねー で さあ いきなりなんだけどー 佐藤くんってさあ… Right This might be a bit sudden But Satou-kun...
Thinking うーあっ! いきなり！？ 「佐藤くんってさあ… 好きな子とかいるの？」 Whoa!? Sudden!? "But Satou-kun... Is there any girl you've got feelings for?"
Page 9
Koganei バスケって興味ない? Do you like basketball?
SFX ずずっ
Satou えっ Eh?
Koganei バスケ部 入る気ない? Wanna join the basketball club?
Basket... With basketball you mean... Basketball? What!? You want me to join a club? No, no! Hahaha! Wait a second here, Yuuho She hasn't finished speaking yet! "Or, rather, the 'su' in 'basuke' is the 'su' in 'suki' Satou-kun suki" NOTE: "basuke" is the japanese word for basketball. "suki" is japanese for "liking". The japanese are simply too whimpy to use "love"
Satou （Not in bubble） カモッ!! カモッ!! Maybe, maybe!
Koganei まー 「興味あったら はじめから やってるっつーの!!」って カンジだよねー Well... "If you're interested come on and join!" is basically what I'm trying to say.
Satou みーん
Koganei よかったら練習見てみてくんない? If you don't mind, would you come and watch the training?
Big-nose-guy でもさ なんで雄歩がバスケなの？ But, hey... Why would they want Yuuho for basket?
Page 11
SFX ドドドドド ピイー Dodododo! Piii!
Guy1 うわあ… 走りっぱじゃん 超ハード… やっぱ体育で やんのとは違うな Whoa, they're running like crazy. Looks super tough They definitely don't want him for his athletic ability, that's for sure
Guy2 な こんなの雄歩 ムリでしょ！ Right! This'd be impossible for Yuuho!
Page 12
Big-nose 雄歩 特にスポーツできるっつー イメージもねーし… 身長フツーだし …もう夏っていう時期に わざわざ呼び出して サカウトする理由がわかんねーよなあ Yeah I can't imagine him as especially good at sport and he's not tall either ...the summer season is already upon us, so I can't see any special reason for scouting him.
Inside Satou's mind - Koganei こいつら バスケ部と見せかけて あたしの家族 These people, who pretend to be the basketball club, are actually my family
Inside Satou's mind - ８ 長男です I'm the oldest son
Inside Satou's mind - ５ 九男です I'm the ninth son
Inside Satou's mind - ４ 娘をよろしく Please take care of my daughter
Inside Satou's mind - Koganei そして勧誘と 見せかけて サトー君スキ And I was just pretending to scout you. Actually I like you.
Inside Satou's mind - Satou 見せかけすぎでしょー Isn't that a bit too much pretending?
Captain おお！ 待ってたぞおー 同志よっ！ 俺 キャプテンの中西!! よろしく!! いやー佐藤くーん ここに来たって事は もお 入部ってする事だな!? んん？ Oh! I've been waiting for ya, comrade! I'm the captain, Nakanishi! Good to meet ya! Oh, since ya've come here, that must mean ya've already decided to join the club, right?
Satou あ いや… Uhm, well...
Captain オーケー がんばろう! Okay! Let's do our best!
Koganei 今日は見学だけですよっ! 何そのテンション!? He's just come to observe! What's with that excitement of yours!?
Satou thinks: クッ… うぜー 暑苦しー!! Ugh... Noisy and sweaty!
Captain 何言ってんだ そりゃテンション上がるでしょ!! 救世主 来たんだぞ What are ya talking 'bout? Of course I'm excited! Our saviour has arrived, ya know!
Satou thinks …救世主…？ Saviour...?
Page 14
Captain うちは ほとんど初心者だし 正直「勝てるチーム」にはなんねーかなって思ってたけど すげー才能ある奴入ってくれてホントよかった!! To be honest, we're mostly beginners, so I didn't think we could become a "winning team". That's why having this extremely talented guy join us is so great!
Satou thinks: …才能？ オレに！？ Talented? He's talking about ME!?
Captain: 今年は都大会ベスト８くれーまで いったりしてな！ This year we might get into the best eight, ya know!
Koganei もっとですよ！ もっと！！ We can take it further! Much further!
Captain もっとか！ 優勝しちゃう！？ Further, ya say? Win it all, ya say?
Satou thinks: そんなに！？ Really!?
オレって弱小チームを 優勝させちゃうくれーの才能秘めてんの！？ マジかよ!? I've got a hidden talent that would be enough to bring this puny team victory!? Are they serious!? まあ 確かにオレ バスケの事 知らねーし… やってる奴から見たら 何かスゲーとこ あんのかも… Well... I don't know anything about basketball, so if you look at it from a players perspective, maybe I've got some great talent hidden...
自分にスポーツの才能があるなんて 考えもしなかった The thought that I might have some great talent for sports has never crossed my mind before エ 何？ オレってトップアスリートの卵なわけ？ イチローとか北島みてーになんの!? Eh? what? I'm like a top athlete gone without harnessing? Like Ichirou and Kitajima!? NOTE: He's talking about Suzuki Ichiro, a famous baseball player, and Kitajima Kousuke, swimmer, olympic medalist and world record holder for both 100- and 200-meter breaststroke. 「全国大会に連れてって<３」みてーな事 言われちゃったりとか… Saying things like "take me with you to the nationals <3"...

Captain 説明せずに誘ったの? おおーい！ たーのーむーよー Ya brought him here without explaining? Come on! I'm begging ya!
Koganei や 何かビミョーに 言いにくいじゃないすか!! あ！ サトー君 ゴメンね えっと… But it's not that easy a thing to bring up! Ah! Satou-kun, I'm sorry, but... Well...
Satou ？

Koganei 彼は（バスケの本場）アメリカから昨日 転向してきた ジョシュア·久慈·グリフィンJr. うちらと同じ 一年生 He transferred yesterday from the home of basketball, America Joshua Kuji Griffin Jr. A first year, like us.
Captain バスケ部の救世主!!! The saviour of the basketball club!
Satou thinks: …あっ ...I see
Page 19
Satou thinks なんでこの半端な時期に オレみたいな奴が突然 バスケ部に誘われたのか The reason why somebody would suddenly, At an odd time like this, invite a guy like me into the basketball club
Josh So YOU are Mr.Sato!? Ah! I've been wanting to meet you!
Satou thinks: その理由が 今 わかった It all makes sense now
Page 20
Old man： おとなりに引っ越して来た ジェームスさんだ This is our new neighbour, James-san
Satou thinks オレが３歳くらいの時だっけ It was around the time I was three その日一緒にゲームやったのはおぼえてる I remember that we played some games together 小３の時 あいつが アメリカに帰るまで よく遊んでたなー From that time on until he went back to america, we played together all the time …てか まあ なんで こんなハナシをするかっていうと ...and, well... If'you're wondering why I'm talking about this オレがバスケ部に誘われたのって 隠れた才能が どうこうとかじゃなく The reason why I was invited to the basketball club wasn't because of some hidden talent

Satou in english: hey... I'm Yuuho Satou. How's it going?
Big text: ヒーローの通訳として だ It's because they want me to be the hero's interpreter

Satou in english Well, I just know some basics
Background おおー Oooh
Guy to left: なるほど こーゆー事か… I see, that explains it all...
Captain ジョシュには昨日から早速 練習に参加してもらって 相当 上手ーって事はわかったんだけど… コミュニケーションがとれなくて困ったのな Josh joined us yesterday, seconds after transferring, and we understood that he's got some serious skills, but we got some problems with communication, ya know
したら小金井が佐藤のウワサ聞いてきてさ じゃ 誘ってみっか!!って話になったんだよ!! Then Koganei heard some rumours about ya and I was like "Get him to join!", ya know
でも すげーな！ ホントフツーに会話してんじゃん！ どお？ まじで通訳やってくんねーかな？ But it's really cool, ya know! Ya can talk to him normally and all! How 'bout it? Would ya like to become an interpreter for us?
Satou thinks 通訳… かあ… うーん… イチローどころか それって… こいつのサポート役… An interpreter...? Hm... Far from Ichirou; more like this guy's supporter...
Page 23
Koganei スゴい なんでしゃべれんの!? 超尊敬するっ Wow! Where did you learn to speak like that!? I'm really impressed ヤバい サトー君 なんかカッコイイ But, really! Satou-kun's kind of cool. あーもお 同じ学校にジョシュとサトー君いるのって ゼッタイ運命だよおー This is too much... That Josh and Satou-kun are in the same school can only be a work of fate! お願い！ バスケ部 入って！ Please! Join the basketball club! あ てか ゴメンね 通訳のコト言わずに誘っちゃって… Oh, and sorry for not telling you anything about this before bringing you here.
Satou ぜんぜん いいよ Okay!

Think-box バスケは5人対5人でやる スポーツらしく Basketball is played between two teams of five members each
Captain いやーよかった！ 佐藤入ってちょーど（部員）１０人！ 久し振りに5対5でゲームできっぞ Oh, it's great! Now that Satou's joined we've got ten members! At last we can play five versus five games again

ディフェンスもそう！ ただ つったってるだけだ！ やる気がないのか！？ The same goes for defence! You're just standing there! Don't you wanna play!?
Satou thinks うお… 怒ってる 1年チームがやる気ねーから？ Aw, crap. He's angry. Because this team of first years don't want to play?
Koganei .………………
Captain おーう どーしたーあ？！ 佐藤！ 出番じゃん ちょっとジョシュとハナシしてみ Hey, What's wrong!? Satou! It's your time to shine, try speaking to Josh for a bit.
Satou あ… ハイ Eh... Yes!

Satou in english あ… はっはっは ジョシュ… どうしたんだよ？ Ah... Hahaha! Josh... What's wrong, man?
Josh in englih ！！ おお！！ 雄歩！！ !! Oh! Yuuho!
みんなに伝えてくれ！ 「闘志なき者はコートに立つ資格はない!! 今すぐ体育館から出ていけ」と!! Tell the bastards that if they don't want to play, then they have no right to be on the court and should get the fuck out, now!
Satou thinks 伝える… って… はっはっは ”体育館から出てけって言ってます<３“ 言えるか！ Tell them... That...? Ha ha ha! "He'd like you to get the fuck out <3" Like I could ever say that!
先輩も いんのに!! 何か やたら 言い方キツイし... 文化の違いか？ 参ったな… Even though our sempais are here! The way he says it is too blunt. A cultural difference? I'm done for...
Page 31
Josh in english あんな ワンパターンな攻めに何回やられるつもり… How many times have you planned to get beaten by such a repetetive offense?
Satou あーもお Aw crap. In english: 待て待て待て待てっ！ Wait wait wait wait! 落ち着けって!! I'm telling you to calm down! 確かに1年チームって おめー以外 あんま活躍してねーけどさ I know the other first years aren't very active compared to you でも今んとこ同点じゃん! But we're tied, you know! ジョシュ一人で上級生チームに喰らいついてるって事 You're actually taking care of our upper-classmen's team by yourself!
Josh in english ダメなんだよ それじゃあっ! IT DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY

Josh in english バスケは一人でやるものじゃない！ Basketball is no one-man show!

Josh in english 君らにコートに立つ資格はない！ You bastards have no right to stand on this court!
Satou thinks おい！ ケンカ売ってんのかよ コイツ！ 部活くれーで そんな熱くなんなくても… Hey! Is he trying to get into a fight!? He doesn't have to get that worked up over a club activity...

Satou thinks ああー！ もお！ クッソッ！ Aw... Damn it all!
PAge 35
Josh in English コート上でパスを受けに来ないって事は存在しないのと同じ！ Not advancing up the court to recieve my passes is the same as not existing at all!
Satou えーと あの… 「1年チーム上手ーんだから 積極的にパスもらいに来るとイイかも」 …って！ Uhm, well... "First year's team is skilled so be assertive and come up to recieve my passes, please" He says!
Think box 通訳ってこーゆー仕事しなきゃなんねーのか… 意外に大変かも… So I'll have to interpret like this, eh? This might be harder than expected...
Satou in english 今 訳してっから 落ち着け！ I'm tranlsating right now, so calm down!
Think box …イヤ でも小金井ちゃんのためだと思って…！ Just remember that this is for Koganei-chan's sake...!
Page 36
Think box 何とか メモねーよーにやわらかく訳してくしかねーか I guess I'll have to interpret wihtout memos, but still soften it, huh?
Josh in english You, number five, that move you did during practice was pretty good
Satou 5番… えっと… 井手くん？ …は 「さっきの練習で見せた動きすげーよかった」 「あーゆーカンジでガンガン ゴール向かってみてくれ」ってさ Number five, uhm... Ide-kun? ...heh "The moves you showed us earlier during practice were awesome!" "Try to utilize them and advance towards goal" he says
Ide あ…うん Ah... Okay
Satou で 今井くん …は「相手よかデケーんだから 体張ってビビらずに…えっと… 何？ ポスト? And Imai-kun. ...He says that "Since your opponents are taller you'll have to straighten and... What's that? Posta?
Imai ポストアップ？ Post up?

Satou なになに？調子出てきた? What's up? Caught up in the mood?
Glasses boy ディフェンス振り切って… After you've shaken the defense...
SFX キュッ
Glasses boy 「今 パスくれ！」って思った瞬間 「手元にボールがある」って感じでさ！ at the moment you want the ball passed You suddenly find it in your hands

Somebody おおーっ! ナイス今井！ Whoa! Nice, Imai!
Glasses boy 見た!? 今の！ ホント魔法だよ 魔法のパス！ ジョシュが本気出し始めた… You saw that, just now? It's really magical. A magical pass! Josh has finally gotten serious
Satou outside bubble へー 魔法ねえ Really? Magic, you say?
Koganei ジョシュがパスさばき始めたのは 一年チームが変わったからだよ The reason he started passing was because the team's attitude changed
一年チームってみんあ初心者で経験浅いしー 試合の中で どう動いていいか 戸惑って 足 止まってたじゃん？ All the first years are beginners without any real experience Even during the match they were confused about how to move and just stopped where they were
だから ジョシュは指示出してたんだけど 伝わんなくて… イライラしちゃって… Therefore Josh tried to give instructions, but they didn't understand... He wound up making them nervous
逆に みんなからしたら 「なんで怒ってんの？ オレのせい？ ヘタに動けねーぞ」ってなっちゃうわけじゃん？ ビビって もっと 足止まっちゃってて... よーするにさあ Which had a negative effect "Why's he angry? Is it my fault? I must really suck!" becomes their impression, you know? They just became more afraid of moving, and their performance dropped
Page 42
Koganei コミュニケーションが 取れないって事は チームの中に悪循環を生んでたんだよ でも サトー君がジョシュの指示 伝えてくれたから If you cant communicate, a vicious circle of misunderstanding starts but thanks to Satou-kun, Josh could get his directions properly delivered
SFX ドドドドドドドドドドド Dododododododo
Koganei そーだよっ！ サトー君の通訳が ゲームの流れ 変えたんだって！ Precisely! It's thanks to your interpretation that the flow of this game has changed!

Koganei サトー君が一年チームを繋げてくれた事で みんなの動きがよくなったから Satou-kun, you've brought the team together and so, everybody's movement has improved
ジョシュの魔法のパスが引き出されて… それが さらに チームの力を引き出してんだって！！ To bring out Josh's magical pass is also to bring out the full ability of the team!
あ! ホラ また！ Ah, look! Again!
SFX ビッ Bi!
Satou thinks ヒーローの「魔法のパス/真の力」を オレ… が…？ This hero's "magical pass"... I brought it out?
Page 45
Captain thinks こいつらジョシュに活かされて 別人見てーだ！ ジョシュの「パッサー」としての本領発揮か…！ These guys gave new life to Josh, they're like a completely different team! Is this a display of Josh's specialty as a passer!?
Captain …おうしゃ！ Come on!

Yotsuba: Pon! SFX: Smack! Yotsuba: Cunning! (ずるいー！）/ You cunning meanie! (ずーるーいーなー!!） NOTE: My jisho says that this is "cunning" or "sly", but in the context that seems a bit strange to use in english. Her face says "mean" rather, so... Koiwai: That's what adults are. （大人はずるいものさ） Yotsuba: These adults! (おとなは！) / Always these adults! (まったくおとなは！） Jambo: What the hell are you two doing? (何やってんだ おまえら）

Koiwai: Okay, dad eats them all (よしじゃあとーちゃんが全部食べて）/ and he'll tell Yotsuba which one was the tastiest (一番おしかったのをよつばにやろう） Yotsuba: Wow! That's a great idea! (おー！それはいいかんがえだ！） Koiwai（not in speech-bubble): Okay, then I'll eat them all. (じゃ 全部いただきまーす） Jambo: Are you okay with this? He'll eat them all, you know. (...いいのか？全部食べられちゃうぞ？) Yotsuba: These adults! (おとなは！) / Always these adults! (まったくおとなは！） Koiwai: Your reaction is way too slow... (反応遅いなあー）

Yotsuba: Right / Rigid special training... / We don't hit them like normal / We hit them hard! NOTE: Don't know if this is a good translation, since I didn't really get the original japanese that well. Went like this: ブンってするんじゃなくて パンってやるんだよ Jambo: Oh, really? Well let's have another go!

Yotsuba: Yeah, it was ok. Jambo or Koiwai: !? / Did it go above or below!? Yotsuba: If you ask me what I saw it as... Both: Yes, yes, / if you saw it that's enough
Page 20
Yotsuba: It went right through the string! Both: EEH!? Jambo: Which is it if it goes through? / safe or out!? Koiwai: I am not familiar enough with the rules to say which it would be... Miura: What are you talking about? Koiwai: Oh! / Ena-chan, Miura-chan, hey Mirua: Sup? Ena: Hi! Jambo: Ah

Jambo: Yesterdays fireworks, / did you write about them in your picture-diary? / That you were treated by this really nice guy Jambo (not in speech-bubble): You've got homework over summer-break, right? Miura: I didn't mention you, but I made sure to write about the fireworks Ena: I wrote about it, too, but I mentioned you, Jambo-san. Jambo: You're a good person, Ena-chan Ena: It's much easier to write when there are events like that, isn't it? Miura: But you've got it easy, Ena. You get to go on trips and visit relatives / So you've got a lot to write about. / But I'm never taken anywere during my summerbreak / so I've got next to nothing to write about.
