[Notice on door] – Boxing club [Text in white] – The Zenkichi when Medaka’s not around!
Boxer – Oi! You over there, put on some gloves damn it! - You’ll hurt yourself!
Zenkichi – Oh… - Sorry
Page 2
Boxer – Looks like that first year’s got some promise - Rather than just testing clubs out I wish he’d just settle down in the boxing club
Boxer 2 – That’s not going to happen, captain - He’s already a member of the student council
Boxer – So why’d he come for a trail session then?
Boxer 2 – Who knows - It looks like he’s going round all the school clubs - However you look at it - It’s a real waste of a talented individual - If it weren’t for the fact he was following that demon of a girl around - He’d be pretty damned formidable
Page 3
[Top] – Medaka Box - The 4th suggestion – “The Unnecessary Intrusion” - To be by her side
Page 4
Zenkichi – Let’s see… Yesterday I went to the boxing club… - That means I’ve done all the martial arts clubs - Right, now for a change of pace I think I’ll give the ball sports a go
Hyuga – Why the hell are you blasting your way through the clubs anyway? - Do you really like sports that much?
Zenkichi – Not really - It’s just something I decided to do - Sweat 5 litres a day - [out of box] ooh, there’s a lacrosse club
Shiranui – Aaah! I know what you mean! - I’ve decided to get through 5 litres of ramen a day too! - [out of box] that's pretty similar, right!?
Zenkichi – Shiranui - Ramen isn’t a drink
Page 5
Shiranui – By my logic - Caesar salad is a vegetable juice
Hyuga – I suppose if you didn’t do something like that you’d never be able to keep up with that demo girl - You should probably give up on it soon though - [Characters above and below Hyuga] Ignore - There’s a rumour going around about you - You’re being called the Club Storm from the student council - [out of box] even though you don’t plan on joining any clubs
Zenkichi – What’s this - Are you actually worried about me?
Hyuga – Like I’d worry myself about you!!
Zenkichi – It’s fine by me - Coming to think of it when the hell did you become one of our group and start eating with us - The reason I started doing this was to make a name for myself anyway - Heh! - The ‘Club Storm’ eh? - Not as cool a nickname as I wanted
Mystery voice – So you want to make a name for yourself then? - Hitoyoshi kun
Page 6
Zenkichi – Kanoya… - Senpai
Kanoya – Why don’t you lend me your services, - There’s something I want your advice about - I’m sure it’s something which will work out in your favour
Hyuga – He seems like a scary individual - You sure it was alright to let Hitoyoshi go alone with him?
Shiranui – It’ll be fine - Besides, I’m only really friends with Hitoyoshi when it suits me anyway
Hyuga – I know I’m not exactly a good guy - But you know, you’re horrible person!!
Page 7
Shiranui – Ahahaha! Don’t worry about him! - I’m sure Hitoyoshi can deal with the likes of Kanoya easy enough - [out of box] the only times I help out is when it looks like fun - That Kanoya guy, he was one of Medaka’s competitors running for student president - He used pretty vicious means to get votes - As such the little princess beat him to a plup
[out of box] This is a fictional image
Hyuga – Hmm, sometimes you can judge a book by its cover then - So I presume that guy has a pretty big grudge against Kurokami then?
Shiranui – I guess so - He’s most likely got some pathetic plan for revenge - He said he wanted advice but he’s not exactly the type to submit to the suggestion box… - What’s this? - Hitoyoshi still hasn’t gone to the Judo club - Even though he said he’d finished the martial arts clubs - I wonder why?
Page 8
Zenkichi – A plan to attack Medaka Kurokami
Kanoya – Yeah - I’m recruiting members at the moment - How about it, you gonna lend us a hand?
Zenkichi – That’s a pretty bad joke. Can’t you see this armband? - However you look at it - I’m not the one you should be inviting
Kanoya – I’m not the one who’s mistaken - After all being the student council general affairs manager just means you’re that beast girl’s bitch right? - I heard you were against joining in the first place - Even I’ve heard about the ‘Club Storm’, my guess is that’s just your way of blowing off stress, am I right? - Or is it partly through your desire to leave the student council?
Page 9
Kanoya – Getting dragged around and used as she sees fit, all unrewarded - Even you’ve got to be sick of it by now - If so follow me! - I’m going to bring that girl down by force and take her place as president - It’s time for the repressed to over throw by force!!
Zenkichi – This is all because you were threatening girls in to voting for you, right? - [out of box] You got what you deserved
Kanoya – Hah! - Don’t play goody-two-shoes Hitoyoshi! - I’m gonna take good care of you - I hate to see someone like you try their hardest just to get trodden down - I bet there’s something you wanted to become, right?
Zenkichi – Become… - right…
Kanoya – Today, after class there’s a tactics meeting - You've got until then to make your mind up - Even if you did decide to go against her - She wouldn't hold it against you right?
Page 10
Zenkichi – Aaah! - This is working out to be pretty troublesome!
Medaka – No, There is nothing troublesome about it - Rather it seems to be an exciting development!
Zenkichi – How long have you been standing there?
Medaka – From the beginning
Zenkichi – In which case you heard it yourself - Looks like quite dislike, Medaka chan
Medaka – Fine by me - From the off it was never my intention to be embraced by the people
Page 11
Medaka – As long as I embrace them - That’s all that matters
Hitoyoshi – First generation Purikura… - The white girl’s pose…
Medaka – I don’t want you unnecessarily intruding, Zenkichi - I will handle this case personally - It is after all the role of royalty - To rise above the revolting masses!
Zenkichi – No intruding? - You know I wouldn't do something like that
[Box] Medaka chan loves her enemies
Page 12
[Box] – It sounds good to say she was supported by 98% of the votes - But that just shows that there is that 2% who opposed her - But in actuality, unlike those who didn’t take part in voting like Hyuga and Moji Senpai - There does exist those who actively didn’t support Medaka in the election results - However regardless of factions rebelling or threatening violence - Medaka chan still accepts everyone with open arms
Voice – Kanoya san - This should be enough to do the job, right?
Page 13
Kanoya – Not yet, we need at least double this - and - make sure you get plenty of long reach weapons too
Fellow dissident – Aren’t you being too cautious? - No matter how many people might say she’s like a demon, we’re still going up against just one girl, right?
Kanoya – Witless moron! - She’s not merely ‘like’ a demon! That girl is a demon!! - Oi! - Has anyone heard if she has any weaknesses??
Fellow dissident – Erm… I think I heard she was bad with animals…
Fellow dissident 2 – Eh? I’m sure I’ve heard people say that girl has a dog though…
Kanoya – Chi! Useless! - Its because you lot are so helpless that I wasn’t elected president - Not to worry - I thought it’d be like this, that’s why I put another plan into action
Page 14
Fellow dissident – A.. Ah! - Hitoyoshi kun!
Kanoya – You’re pretty late - we were waiting for you… - Wha… eh? - What do you think you’re playing at
Page 15
Zenkichi – Medaka chan manages to bring her self to even to like guys like you - I can’t see anything you do causing even a scratch - However, knowing your plan I couldn’t help but act - I just can’t leave her be - My childhood friend, capable of anything by herself - Kanoya Senpai - You asked me if there was anything I wanted to become, right? - I - Want to become a person able to protect Medaka chan
Kanoya – Haa? - I don’t get it! - Like I said - What the hell do you think you’re doing!?
Page 16-17
Hitoyoshi – I’m unnecessarily intruding!! - I’m not going to give you time to change your ways - As of tomorrow - I want you to start a new rumour - Next to student president Medaka Kurokami - Stands a vicious guard dog! - As of this point, based on personal reasons - I call the council to action!!
Page 18
Judo member – It looks like he isn’t going to come to our club afterall - The rumored ‘Club Storm’ - My guess is he’s scared - We are a national level team after all!
Judo captain – Idiot - That’s only in the individual competition - That being said though - You have to ask yourself why exactly he is working his way through the clubs
Akune – It’s all just a heroic act - I’m the only one fit to stand at Medaka Kurokami’s side - He’s no doubt just trying to show off his strength, which is most probably lacking anyway
Captain – What’s this Akune kun? - Do you know that first year then?
Page 19
Akune – Yeah - Zenkichi Hitoyoshi is a mere insect - And Medaka Kurokami is my precious flower
[Name box] - Kouki Akune [stats] - Affiliation – 2nd year class 11 - Gender – Male - Blood type – AB - Rank – Judo 2nd dan
[Box] – Meanwhile
Medaka – Noone’s coming!?
[Sign] Welcome rebels
[Box] – Medaka was waiting
[Left hand text] – His aim is Medaka!? https://mangahelpers.com/t/jamegg/releases/12561Translation: Medaka Box 32009-05-23T09:34:21+00:00jameggadmin@mangahelpers.comMedaka box : Chapter 3
Page 1
[Box] – The suggestion box instigated by the 98th president of Hakoniwa School, Medaka Kurokami - Had come to be known as the ‘Medaka Box’ among the students - And quickly gained a good reputation
[Text at top] – Thanks to all those who are cheering for Medaka and Zenkichi [Text in black] –The 25 page special 3rd chapter of the newly serialised Medaka box [Text in white] – Medaka Box
[Box] – And - The job of maintaining the suggestion box - Became the main job of the General affairs council member, ie. me…
Hitoyoshi – We’ve got three requests in the box today - Looks like every one has some concern or other… - However what can I say about this one… - Looks somewhat odd compared to the requests we normally get…
[Text on left] – What seems so ‘odd’ about this cutely illustrated request!?
Page 2
[Title] – Medaka Box - The 3rd suggestion – I guess you’re the right one…
[White text] – Humans are troubled beings
Page 3
Hitoyoshi- And as you can see we have three submission today… - A request from the Basketball club after a new club room - A request for a new lunch menu - And - A request to search for - A lost puppy
Medaka - A lost puppy?
Hitoyoshi - Apparently the puppy and it’s owner got separated somewhere on the school grounds at some point last winter break - It hasn’t been seen since then - And the owner wants us to find it
Medaka – Right, I’ll handle the Basketball club and menu request - and I’ll leave the lost puppy to you
Hitoyoshi – Hm? That’s fine by me - But is it alright to do this alone
Medaka – Don’t make me say it… - You… - Understand me right?
Page 4
Medaka – You know I’ve - never been good with animals
Shiranui- Heeeh, I’m surprised! - To think that that invincible super princess actually has a weak spot!
Hitoyoshi – Well.. - People say she’s like some sort of super being and all - But she had her problems in the past
Page 5
Hitoyoshi – Back in the first year of primary school the class took it in turns to look after the class pet - When it was Medaka’s turn there was an incident - And you could say it was somewhat traumatic
Shiranui – Heeeh… - But if that’s true - Then won’t that throw doubt on her presidency!?
Hitoyoshi – Think about it! - If there are ever any problems then that's where I come in! - Right! Shiranui! If you know where the puppy is then show the way! - You said you had an idea right!!
Shiranui – Er.. Yeah - Sure why not - I don't like the enthusiastic you… - When I say I’ve got an idea - I mean I heard someone saying something about a dog living on campus somewhere - Eeerm… - Should be somewhere round here…
Page 6
Shiranui – There it is! - This is the dog right? It matches the drawing and everything right?
Page 7
Hitoyoshi – That can’t be it Shiranui… - That is NOT a cute poor little puppy which got separated from its owner… - You know what that is - That is something some irresponsible millionaire bought and released into the city - Some beast protected by the Washington Pact* or something!! (*Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora)
Shiranui – What are you ranting about? That’s a Borzoi, it’s a well respected species. - Also known as the ‘Russian Wolfhound’
Hitoyoshi – See! I knew it! It's a wolf!! - This is a joke right? Do I really have to catch that thing now? Really!? - Damnit… I can’t believe this - Shiranui, you’re going to help out right?
Shiranui – What!? - Me!? - No way!? - Why would it!? - I just wanted to hang back and watch my friend get mauled from a safe distance!!
Hitoyoshi – What the… - You aren’t normal!
Shiranui – I’m gonna stand here and snap some shots of you being brave!
Hitoyoshi – You need some divine punishment
Page 8
Shiranui – See - He’s saying ‘hey there, why don’t you come over and play’
Hitoyoshi – Some how I don’t think so - I heard ‘if you dare interrupt my sleep again I’m going to rip you to shreds, lowly human’
Page 9
Shiranui – You giving up? - You gonna slink off home? - Shame to waste this opportunity to show your good side off to Medaka though…
Hitoyoshi – Gu…
Medaka – I’m no good - When it comes to animals
Hitoyoshi – Aaargh! I know! - All I have to do is get it over with, right!?
Shiranui – Ah, wait!! - If you’re really going to do it then take these! - [left of box] its my lunch
Hitoyoshi – What’s this? Sausage? - Oh! I get it! - Lure him in with bait!? - [out of box] good thinking!
Page 10
Shiranui – Noo! That’s not what I meant! - What you do is put these in your jacket - Then you can say ‘Aaaargh!! My internal organs!! My internal organs… look similar to these sausages’ - You should do that joke, it’ll be great
Hitoyoshi – But that joke - after I do it, within seconds it really would eat my internal organs - Damnit - I’m just going to have to do it! - Lend me these! - Uuu - Uuuuuwaaaaaagh
Page 11
Hitoyoshi – Eh? - ‘Aaaargh!! My internal organs!! My internal organs!!… look similar to these sausages’ - Oh god, Aaaaagh!!
Hitoyoshi – Erm… - And that’s how it all happened - I, together with Shiranui was able to locate the target but failed in its apprehension - After the attempt we let the target get away
Medaka – I see - What can I say, other than - Seeing you get on so well with that Shiranui girl is a little unsettling - So in other words, over the half year period of the puppy’s disappearance - The dog grew up and in fact ceased to be a puppy? - Puppies do grow fast
Hitoyoshi – Aaah… I guess that’s what happened - It’s not so much a case of it becoming an adult - It’s more like the dog turned into a wild beast or something
Page 13
Hitoyoshi – I met up with the owner just as a matter of procedure - She seemed like a easy going sort of girl - for a senpai* that is - It was pretty damned hard to tell her just what the situation was (Senpai = upperclassman)
[Name box] – 3rd year 2nd class Akizuki senpai - Interests : Making confectionary items - Aspirations : To find a good husband - Greeting of choice : How do you do?
Medaka – Borzoi means ‘agile and alertness’ in Russian - They were originally used by people to hunt wolves - On the face of it these dogs are more beastly than the game they hunt
Hitoyoshi – Huh! That’s why I couldn't do anything against it! – he almost got his teeth into my internal organs too - But I guess that's no real reason to give up on the case - The insurance has to come through after all… (I presume Hitoyoshi is referring to himself being the insurance by covering the jobs that Medaka doesn’t do)
Medaka – Insurance?
Hitoyoshi – Don’t worry yourself about it, Medaka chan - It’s not like I’m gonna give up just because I didn’t succeed once - Just leave it up to me and Shiranui, we’ll get it done
Medaka – You and Shiranui…?
Page 14
Hitoyoshi – Yeah - Although I’m sure she won’t be all that pleased about helping - But I am sure that if I ask she’ll tag along - I don’t think you really know her all that well - But that girl can really come through in a pinch - I’m on the case so just keep focused on the suggestions you took on
Medaka – Zenkichi, wait - That case - I’ll handle it!
Hitoyoshi – That’s fine but… - Are you sure? - We’re going up against an animal
Medaka – Not to worry - That and I’ve already managed to clear up the requests I was working on
Page 15
Medaka – But above all… - I cannot bear the idea of you begging someone for help because of my short-comings!! - Yet again - In response to a submission from the suggestion box - I put the council into action!!
Page 16
Hitoyoshi – Who are you!?
Medaka – It’s me - Of course!
Hitoyoshi – I was kinda hoping it wasn’t you…
Page 17
Shiranui – It might be a bit of a stupid question but - what’s the costume meant to be?
Medaka – Hm? - Can’t you tell - [out of box] I appropriated it from the dramatic club
Hitoyoshi – You can tell by looking, but, I understand why you’d want to ask
Medaka – The tactic is to get the target to view me as one of it’s own - When dealing with animals it’s important to be the one who makes the first move!
Shiranui – Hitoyoshi, I don’t suppose…
Hitoyoshi – You noticed? - Yeah - She’s so smart she passed back into stupid
Medaka – Right then - that’s the target I presume
Page 18
Medaka – Hmm.., I see - It looks like a cute little pup to me!
Hitoyoshi – Really, you don’t have to pretend - Don’t worry about it, I’ll take responsibility and solve the case - Together with Shiranui!
Hitoyoshi – What’s with that face?
Medaka – Hrmp! - You two should just hang back and watch - I’m going to show you that I’m not a girl who’ll let herself be trapped by her past!
Page 19
Hitoyoshi – What’s she getting so worked up about…?
Shiranui – She’s just jealous right? - Because we’re getting along so well
Hitoyoshi – Eh? - I wasn’t even particularly sure if we were friends or not - She’s way off the mark
Shiranui – Ahyahya! - It looks as though the little princess is more human than I thought - She’s got a stupid side, she gets jealous - Even having a problem with animals
Hitoyoshi – Huh? - Shiranui, I think you’ve got the wrong end of the stick
Shiranui – Eh?
Hitoyoshi – Medaka chan doesn’t dislike animals or anything - Rather - She REALLY loves animals
Page 20
Medaka – Ok - Don’t be afraid
Page 21
Medaka – Let me pat your head - Let me give you a hug - Com’on lets play! - Come one now! - Let me touch you!!
Page 22
Hitoyoshi – Eh? - M… - Me!?
Shiranui – Erm… Hitoyoshi - What’s going on here?
Page 23
Hitoyoshi - Like I said - Medaka doesn’t dislike animals at all - It’s animals - Who can’t stand Medaka
[Box] – Back in 1st year of primary school Medaka Kurokami was commissioned with looking after the class pet - However - When she went to get the rabbit from it’s hutch the rabbit refused to come out of it’s den - When she went to give food to the carp in the pond, the moment she approached all the fish dived down and refused to come back up
Page 24
[Box] – People still talk about the class trip to the zoo - Not one animal, not even the biggest, scariest of beasts would show itself in the presence of Medaka - Animals know nothing about personalities - All they know is to cower in the presence of overwhelming power - On the other hand - The reason everyone accepted the current Medaka as school president - Has nothing to do with her super human parameters or her high status - Rather you could say it was thanks to her personality
Page 25
[Box] – Putting that to one side - Not everything Shiranui said was completely off the mark
Hitoyoshi - Erm… - And that’s the long and short of it! - We successfully returned our friend the Borzoi to his owner - She said he seems far more chilled out than he was as a puppy - Either way, one suggestion down
Medaka – I… - I couldn’t even get that cute little doggy to like me - There’s no helping it, I fail as a human…
Hitoyoshi – Well, who knows… - Although you are definitely human - [out of box] you certainly don’t look like a dog
[Box] – Loving animals, getting depressed - Medaka is more human than anyone thought
[Text on left] – The conclusion this time, the dog liked Zenkichi more than Medaka
[Box] – It’s been one week since I crumbled - and joined the student council
[out of box] – Hitoyoshi, member of the Student council – General Affairs (the lowest rank)
Hitoyoshi – hmm -mmm - Damnit, I just can’t pull this off - Black uniforms - Just never suit me!
Page 3
Hitoyoshi – I came to this school because they had some white in their uniform…
Medaka – You’re wrong - Black suits you just fine, Zenkichi
Hitoyoshi – Ahh! - Why the hell do you always appear behind people!?
Medaka – If you’re that concerned about how the uniform looks then why don’t you wear your jersey under your jacket? - It’ll most likely look far better
Hitoyoshi – It’ll probably look stupid… - What the hell!? - This… - This looks awesome!! - I look like some sort of rebel!
Medaka – I just checked the suggestion box - As of tomorrow maintaining and checking the suggestion box will be your job - The job takes is of the highest priority, so make sure you don’t slack off
Page 4 Medaka – Hm.. So this time it seems - The request is not undertaken anomalously
Ariake – Erm… Sorry - To tell you the truth I didn’t really think that this was something I should be talking to 1st years about - But after hearing from a friend about the kendo hall incident…
[Out of box] - Affiliation – Athletics club - Class – 2nd year 9th class - Name – Ariake senpai (upperclassman)
Medaka – Don’t even think about it, go ahead - I will take requests from anyone!
[thought bubble] What’s with this girl, she doesn’t even speak politely to an upperclassman… - And what’s with this guy, he’s wearing his jersey under his jacket…
Page 5
Ariake – The thing I’ve come to you about is - this…
[paper note] – Quit the athletics club
Medaka – Horrific
Ariake – I was chosen to represent the school in the sprint event in the next competition - I was really happy as it’s pretty rare that a second year gets chosen to represent the school - One week ago… - I found my spikes in this state
Hitoyoshi – Do you have any suspects in mind?
Ariake – I don’t know - My shoes were just left in the changing room - Anyone could have done it - Actually - I don’t trust any of them!
Page 6
Ariake – It’s traditional that the competition for a regular place on the team here at Hakoniwa School is rough - It’s probably normal to be treated a little hostile after being chosen for a place, right? - That’s why I was ready for something to happen - But this… I never thought anyone would go this far
Medaka – By the looks of it I’d say you’ve cherished these shoes for quite some time now - And with your shoes in this sort of a state I’m guessing you can’t train, am I right?
Ariake – For the moment I’m having to use trainers - I can’t talk to the coach about this - I’m worried that students who are under this sort of stress might be taken off the team - But most of all I can’t bring myself to practice with the people who were probably the ones who did this to me! - Every one’s a suspect! I can’t trust anyone! - I’m so upset… I can’t even sleep at night!!
Page 7
Medaka – Worry not, 2nd year Ariake - Tonight will be your last sleepless night! - I, Medaka Kurogami - Will expose the criminal today!!
Hitoyoshi – Today!? - How can I say it - The sports clubs are less wholesome than I expected - I mean when we were campaigning there were rumours made up about you and everything - But do you really think it’s going to be doable - There you go again making a grand proclamation like solving the case today - Especially from what resources we’ve got, there’s nothing here to tell us who the culprit is - Given the fact that this all happened right after the announcement of the new team members - It’s likely to be one of the female members of the athletics club, but really, - How many people do you think that is!?
Page 8
Medaka – ‘A female athletic club member’ ‘Someone who’s been in the club for a long time’ ‘A sprint specialist’ and ‘someone who cherishes the same brand of running shoes’ - ‘Left handed’ and ‘a reader of Fuguruma Newspaper’ who ‘lives on block 23’ - Who does that describe?
Hitoyoshi – Heh? [out of box] – what was that?
Medaka – These shoes have been cut to pieces - In actuality cutting shoes with scissors is not an easy task - However, if you look carefully, the cuts were made exactly along the seams - It’s suspiciously precise - Without knowing just how such a shoe ages and frays through normal use this would be impossible - The culprit would have to have been someone whose owned the same type of shoes and used them over an extended period of time - But more than that
Page 9
Medaka – Whilst cutting the shoes to ribbons as the culprit did, not one mark was made on the brand logo - Odd though it might sound - It could be said that the culprit is someone who loves this particular brand of shoes - Looking at this cut even more is apparent - See - It appears the culprit was using left handed scissors
Hitoyoshi – Even having been told I can’t see it… - And the fact that there letters were from Fuguruma Newspaper? - It clear that you deduced that from looking at the cuttings, however - What can you really discern from just looking at these letters?
Medaka – Even though on the surface they’re just individual letters - There are parts of articles written on the back (if you shine a light on it) - Looking at the text on the back of these cuttings these were not all taken from just one paper - Rather they were taken at random from a week’s worth of Fuyama Newspapers. - The culprit did not buy the newspaper for the purpose of making this letter - Rather it is reasonable to say they used only newspapers which were lying around the house
Page 10
Hitoyoshi – And the fact that she lives in the 23rd block?
Medaka – It is often the case that newspapers undergo alterations depending on the time of day they are printed - The newspapers used for the cuttings were the 14th editions which got delivered to block 23.
Hitoyoshi – Such deductive power - She’s so unnerving!!
[out of box] – Does that mean she remembers every article in every newspaper!?
Medaka – I can’t imagine that there will be many who fit all the criteria - Lets start searching - And find the culprit - Actions which undo the hard work of others - Crimes which hold back those trying their best - These are the things I hate the most!!
Page 11
Medaka – Zenkichi, I’m angry! - In response to a suggestion box request - I am putting the council into action!!
Shiranui – Member of the athletics club - Isahaya senpai (upperclassman) 3rd 9th class - An athlete who specialises in sprint events, the same as Ariake - She’s left handed - And as you can see she wears the same spikes as Ariake
Page 12
Shiranui – Her family has had a subscription to Fuguruma Newspapers for 3 years now and they live in the 23rd block - or so they say
Hitoyoshi – It’s not the first time I’ve thought about it - But where the hell do you get your information from, Shiranui?
Shiranui – Ahahaha - If you intend on remaining a character on the side of justice then its best you don’t know - On top of that, Isahaya senpai - Failed to become a regular on the team when Ariake was chosen
Page 13
Hitoyoshi – That clinches it - It must be embarrassing for a third year to be replaced by a second year - It’s almost certain that she’s the culprit (wasn’t much of a mystery in the end)
Medaka – However Zenkichi - The fact of the matter is we have no hard evidence - ‘Almost certain’ isn’t the same as ‘certain’ - We mustn’t treat her as a criminal based solely on circumstantial evidence
Hitoyoshi – It’s all well and good being an idealist and all - But we have no means of actually getting any hard evidence - We aren’t the police after all - And its not like we can just go up to her and ask her straight - Eh?
Page 14
Isahaya – Fu-
Medaka – 3rd year Isahaya - Are you the culprit? - Well? - It’s about these running shoes…
Page 15
Isahaya – I… - I don’t know anything
Shiranui – Ah! She ran away!
Hitoyoshi – Well - Most people would - [out of box] I’m going after her
Shiranui – By the way, Hitoyoshi
Hitoyoshi – EH!?
Shiranui – Why are you wearing your jersey under your uniform? - You look weird!
Hitoyoshi – Now’s not the time!!
Isahaya - How... - How did she work it out so fast...
Page 16
Isahaya – Eh!? - EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHH!?
Page 17
Isahaya – No way!? - But - I can run 100 meters in 12 seconds flat!
Medaka – Really? Impressive - I however can run 42.195km is 2 hours flat - So that only works out at 17seconds per 100 meters!
Isahaya – Ohmygod Ohmygod Ohmygod - This gild is the new student president Medaka Kurokami right?! - The girl who is said to have gotten those kendo club dropouts to clean up their act the moment she came into office!? - If she finds out - If she finds you I did that I’ll be killed
Medaka – Personally, to tell the truth - I always preferred the high jump more than running
Page 18
Page 19
Medaka – Right - Seeing as it appears you didn’t hear me the first time I’ll ask again - 3rd years Isahaya - Are you the culprit?
Isahaya – [thought] I’m gonna be killed!! - N.. No, It wasn’t me, I don’t know anything about it! - I definitely didn’t cut up Ariake’s spikes with scissors! And I definitely didn’t make a letter telling her to quit the club…!! - [thought] AAAAAAAHH!! What the hell am I saying! - Saying something like that without even being asked…!!
Medaka – Alright - If you insist you don't know anything about it…
Isahaya – She’s going to kill me
Page 20
Medaka – If you say you don’t know, that’s good enough for me - Sorry to have interrupted your training
Isahaya – Eh? - Wait…
Medaka – What’s wrong, do you have something to say?
Isahaya – No no, it’s not that…
Medaka – Oh yeah, I forgot to mention
Page 21
Medaka – Just now, that was some pretty good sprinting - It really shows that you train hard - Keep up the devotion! - I really like people who - Always give their all!
Isahaya – Wha… What’s with that girl - I don’t get it - Don't she know to doubt people from time to time
Hitoyoshi - That’s not it, Isahaya senpai
Page 22
Hitoyoshi – Its not that Medaka doesn't know how to doubt people - Its that she knows how to trust people!!
Isahaya – Who are you…? - Why are you wearing your jersey under your jacket? - [small text] its weird
Hitoyoshi – Tell me it looks cool!! - Even though Medaka may hate certain actions - She can never bring herself to hate people
Page 23
Isahaya – Well - Back in middle school my job was going round crushing all the evil doers she didn’t get round to seeing to - But now apparently my job in managing the suggestion box. So, - Just this once I’m going to follow the presidents lead - I’m going to believe that you’ll never do something like this again - Right!?
Isahaya – I… - I…
Shiranui – Eh? Me? I went home! - I hate running after all!
Page 24
[Box] – The next day
Hitoyoshi – Damnit - Why don’t people appreciate the coolness!?
Ariake – Erm, could I have a moment - please Hitoyoshi…? - [out of box] It does look cool - [out of box] It’s individual
Ariake – Yeah - You could say that… - This time, the trainers I was using as a replacement for my spikes were taken from my locker… - And
Page 25
Ariake – I found these new spikes and this letter in my locker instead - What do you think this means??
[letter] – Sorry
[Box] – As such the case was resolved - No doubt Ariake senpai will sleep soundly tonight - However, a certain childhood friend only caught on to the fact - Somewhat later than imagined
Medaka – Damn this criminal - To sink so low as stealing her trainers… - [out of box] and such a provocative letter - [out of box] this time they will not be forgiven!
Hitoyoshi – How can a girl as clever as her so be so stupid…
[Left hand text] – Medaka’s mind is too sharp for it’s own good…!? https://mangahelpers.com/t/jamegg/releases/12190Translation: Medaka Box 12009-05-11T12:33:05+00:00jameggadmin@mangahelpers.com**Update -- the missing text on pages 11 and 46 has been filled in**

Page 3
[small text repeated multiple times] – whisper whisper
Misc students – Hey, did you hear the rumour about the new school president..? - I can’t believe she’s a first year who enrolled with the rest of us - I heard she’s so up her self it's a joke… - Sure she’s flaming hot - But she’s completely unconventional in everything she does - I even hear the teachers are too afraid of her to do anything about it!
Shiranui – However you look at it - you have to be impressed that she can pull a bluff like that in front of the whole school - I suppose you could say she’s used to standing up in front of people…
Hitoyoshi – Hrmp
Page 4
Hitoyoshi – It’s not like she’s used to standing in front of people… - It’s more like she’s used to standing over people!
[Name] – Hitoyoshi Zenkichi - Affiliation – 1st year first class - Blood type – AB - Dominant hand – Left - Star sign – Leo
Shiranui – I suppose you could say that - If that weren’t the case - There’s no chance she could have become the school president as a first year
[Name] – Shiranui Hansode - Affiliation – 1st year first class - Blood type – AB - Eye sight – 1.5 by 1.5
Page 5
Shiranui – Even then to get 98% of the votes! - She’s definitely the undisputed number one! - That is to say that even I voted for the little princess - She was number one in the country in the national exams! - She scored an unheard of record deviation score of 90! - She’s got innumerable trophies and awards! - Even in sports she takes any records she tries for! - And its practically a joke as to how rich her family is, they’re said to be holding up the economy single handedly! - The sum length of 263.0 meters - She can fly at 60000 feet at the speed of mach 2! - She’s got built in intel processing!
Hitoyoshi – Erm - You descriptions no longer seems to be human
Shiranui – So? - What are you going to do? - The fact that the little princess got elected means - That as a matter of course you’re going to join the student council?
Hitoyoshi – Heh! - As if! - Like I could handle being messed about by her any more
[Out of box text] Although it is true she keeps bugging me to join
Page 6
Hitoyoshi – I’m resolute! - I’m definitely not joining the student council!!
Medaka – Oh my - Zenkichi, you shouldn’t be so rebellious in your outbursts
Page 7
Hyuga – Eh? - Where did that Hitoyoshi guy go?
Shiranui – [bottom] Oh, Hyuga kun - Hmm? - Oh, Hitoyoshi? He just got dragged out of here by the fearful student president
Hyuga - … It even looks like he helped her with her campaign and everything - What exactly is the relationship between Hitoyoshi and the new president?
Shiranui – Ah… - I guess you’d say they’re something like childhood friends - But - If you ask me the relationship, albeit inseparable is pretty unhealthy
Hitoyoshi – Damnit - Why can’t you just ask me to come normally like everyone else - Miss president
Medaka – Hmm - You the one at fault continuing to disobey me
[Name] Kurokami Medaka - Affiliation : 1st year 3rd class
Page 8
Medaka – And why are you calling me by my formal title - Just call me Medaka like you used to!
[text in white] – Job – Student president
[more text] – Normally the jobs of the student council in Hakoniwa school are comprised of 5 categories, president, vice president, secretary, bursary, general affairs manager. - With a president who managed to achieve 98% of the support from the student body - There are few students who can match her standards - And at current the president is filling the roles of every member of the student council
Page 9
Hitoyoshi - Heh! - I understand that it’s gotta be hard going and all. - But even then, don’t get me wrapped up in it! - You’ve always been like this, ever since we were kids! - Every time something happened you’d just turn up and drag me along! - You've never thought about me and about the position you put me in! - The truth is I just can’t handle it! - To be fair, you can handle carrying on as a one-man student council right?
Page 10
Hitoyoshi – Ri… Heeeeeeeeey!! - What the hell, you undress right behind me as though it's the most natural thing in the world!! - For god’s sake have some sense of shame!
Medaka - ? - Is there any point in being embarrassed about anything which goes on between the two of us? - It doesn’t even need to be said that until we were 6th years at primary school you were the one who used to share a bath with me
Hitoyoshi – We were kids!!
Page 11
Medaka – And on top of that, Zenkichi - the reason I’ve bring you along isn’t for you to help me do my job..
Hitoyoshi – Hm? [out of box] at very least … put some clothes on
Medaka – Never once in my life have I ever - thought a job challenging. - However I need you! - All I want for you is to be by my side!
Hitoyoshi - Eh... - EH!?
Medaka - And - Moving straight on to the suggestion box - I just had a look inside - And it looks like we've already received our first request
Page 12
Hitoyoshi – The suggestion box…? - you did mention something - bothersome like that
[in box] One of the pledges made by Medaka Kurokami in the election race - was to set up a suggestion box
Medaka – Your dreams are your own personal concerns - you should take on the challenge and fulfil your own dreams! - However your worries are my concern - Entrust every last one to me!!
[box] It was thanks to such a profound proclamation - that she was chosen to be school president.
Hitoyoshi – I really didn’t think that anyone in the school would have taken that little act seriously. - And? - What does it say?
Medaka – Hrmp.. I’ll read it to you [text at bottom of page] Jump is the only place you can read Nisho and Akatsuki Ryou’s manga
Page 13
Medaka – “I am currently concerned about the group of trouble-maker 3rd years who have taken over the Kendo hall. - Could you please find some way of getting rid of them?” - So it says
Hitoyoshi [out of box] – ah… - Looks like I’m going to be dragged into this [in box] – The kendo hall?
[Box] – Amongst the many aspects of the grounds which Hakoniwa school prides itself - There are many sports facilities, and among them - The kendo hall holds pride of place as the grandest and most traditional
Page 14
[Box] – That is to say it was a few years ago - Due to a lack of members the club got dissolved and the hall became neglected - Currently the hall has become the favourite hangout for the school’s trouble-makes
Page 15
Moji – Hm? - Who the hell are you?
Medaka – 1st year 3rd class Medaka Kurokami, head of the school council - I’m acting as the student council - In response to a request in the suggestion box!
Hitoyoshi – So you got dressed just for this…
Moji – Ah.. I’ve heard of you - The chick president who’s gone mad with power right? - I’m surprised to see you’d bring yourself all the way out here! - You might have got 98% of the votes or something but I should tell you - I was the one who got the remaining 2%!!
Medaka – So you're the leader here, 3rd year Moji - Kendo eh? That takes me back - I tried my hand at it for a bit a few years back
Page 16
Medaka – Looks like this bokutou (wooden sword) has been well looked after - The ebony finish is pretty thorough
Moji – Eh.. What the!? When the hell did she take it?? - Not only did I not notice her take it I didn’t see her move!
[Box] – “barehanded disarm” - I suppose you could call it kendo - Not exactly the level of someone who just ‘tried their hand’ though
Hitoyosi [out of box] – not so much a technique - more like a special move
Page 17
Moji – Ha! - Guys, surround her!!
Guys – Ooh!!
Medaka – Inappropriate dress, dyed hair and accessories - A veritable parade of rule breakers - Not that I can really talk…
Hitoyoshi – that's true
Page 18
Moji – Wha - What the hell!?
Page 19
Medaka – However the cigarettes are one thing you should change - These things cause all sorts of health problems - Just think of this as good for your future selves!
Guys – My smokes!? - What the hell was that!? - A ninja techniques
[Box] – That wasn’t ninjutsu, - It was still kendo - It was just the normal advance step and retreat step used in kendo, however - At that level there’s probably little difference between that and a replication technique
Hitoyoshi – That was the most basic of basics!
Page 20
[Box] – I should imagine that she’s probably just about the only high schooler who can do that - and in socks no less
Medaka – It looks as though you’ve made a fine mess of this place - To have dirtied one of this schools great facilities to this extent… - I’m almost impressed
[Box] – However - something like that - was of little significance in the eyes of Medaka Kurogami
Guys – What’s with the lecturing! - This has nothing to do with you, president! - Don’t think so highly of yourself!!
Medaka – So pitiful
Page 21
Medaka – All of you guys were undoubtedly once passionate, loyal kendo club members - I can only presume that there is some great reason, some great tragedy which has lead to you straying so far from the path
[Box] – Nope - We just liked playing with swords - Just your average dropouts…
Hitoyoshi [Box] – And this is where Medaka comes into her own - “Preaching to the lesser mortals’!
Medaka – Were you thrown aside by your parents? - Did you fail to meet a teacher who could guide you? - Were you betrayed by one of your own? - Worry no more! I will help you be born again! - I will make it impossible for you to become distracted by anything other than the way of the sword. - I will straighten you out! I will correct the wrongs! I will improve you, rebuild you!
Page 22
Medaka – I will not see your thoughts get lead astray again
Moji – What a stance!?
Medaka – I will leave you unable to cry or even laugh
Guy – What is she, the military??
Medaka – We start with basic strokes, 1000 times!! - Don’t you guys think - You’re going to be able to walk home today!!
Moji – EH??
Page 23
[Box] - The next day
Shiranui – This is something I’ve been thinking for a while now - is there any chance that you’re an idiot?? - Only you seem to be dragged along on the little princess’s quests pretty much every time - Despite not being on the council
Hitoyoshi – Shuddup! - She’s always been like, ever since we were kids - It’s almost like she doesn’t get the fact that she’s better than other people at things - And as a result she puts effort into making those around her as good at things as she is
[Box] – For example in middle school, after getting the results of the national mock exams, she actually decided to teach the revision classes over the summer holiday - What she ended up teaching - Was how to write ‘1’ and ‘7’ in a way that wont confuse the examiners and how to fill out the multiple choice sheets - Everything she taught was to help prevent misunderstandings when the tests are marked
Page 24
[Box] – As far as Medaka Kurokami was concerned people didn’t make mistakes in tests they just didn’t fill the sheets out properly - She presumed from the start that everyone could get full marks - That was because that was always the case for herself
Medaka – With the characters 刃 and 匁 (yaiba and monme) - they look similar so make sure to check
Hitoyoshi – As such I don’t think she’ll ever really understand - the feelings of those who try but don't succeed - and just how depressing it really can be - We were pretty lucky that it worked out quite so well this time though - I shouldn’t imagine those guys will want to go near the kendo hall after what they were put through
Shiranui – We’ll see about that…
Hitoyoshi – Eh?
Shiranui – Considering just how long you’ve known each other you really don’t understand Medaka at all do you - “Thank god we got rid of the bad guys” - If she was as simple as thinking that - Then don’t you think you wouldn’t have to go through the things you do?
Page 25
Random voice – This isn’t a joke - I’m gonna be pissed if they’re still there
Hitoyoshi – Hm? - Was someone sitting in the seat behind me just now?
Shiranui – Eh? - Yeah, Hyuga from our class was eating just behind you
Hitoyoshi – Hyuga?
Shiranui – Why do you want to know?
Hitoyoshi – No reason, - I was probably just hearing things
Shiranui – You probably don’t need to worry about it anyway, the rest of the council positions will be filled soon anyway
Hitoyoshi – Hm?
Shiranui – Didn’t you know? - after class today there’s a recruitment meeting for the remaining positions on the school council - all the elite students from the 2nd and 3rd years will be there
Page 26
Shiranui – Once all the council positions are filled then you wont be messed about by Medaka anymore - You should be pleased
Hitoyoshi – God damn that Shiranui - What the hell “you really don’t understand Medaka at all do you`’!? - I’ve been standing by her ever since we were two - When it comes to Medaka - I’m the one who understands her best! - Gah! That really pissed me off for some reason!
Page 27
Hitoyoshi – Wha.. -What the!? - What the hell happened here? - Yesterday it looked like some sort of ruins…
Medaka – Zenkichi, you’re late!
Page 28
Medaka – Training started ages go - As punishment you’d best not expect to be going home any time soon! - You’re not the only one either - No one seems to come on time these days - [out of box] I’ll have to yell at them later
Hitoyoshi – Eh? - Its not a matter of being late or not, I shouldn't imagine they’ll ever come back again! - What, you thought that if you tidied the place up they might have a change of heart or something!? - Why do you bother yourself so much over these things - As far as your concerned they’re just a group of complete strangers right?
Page 29
Medaka – Ridiculous!! - I was born onto this earth to help complete strangers! - I don’t care about being top or breaking records - It’s only when I’m able to help someone - That I truly feel happy!
Hitoyoshi – Heh! - I can’t help but to be jealous! - Maybe if I was blessed with your talents - Then I’d want to live like that too
Medaka – Talent? - That's another dull word
Hitoyoshi – What’s dull about it!? - It’s because the rest of us don’t have that talent that we’re all pissed!! - If you carry on as you are you’re bound to regret it one day! - Don’t you get it? Those guys were the 2% of people who didn’t vote for you…
Page 30
Medaka – They aren’t 2% - They’re 8 people! - Don’t refer to living people as percentages, stats or number! - 3rd year Moji - 3rd year Usa - 3rd year Tosu - 3rd year Imari - 3rd year Ibusuki - 3rd year Nakatsu - 3rd year Ureshino - 3rd year Yufuin - They’re no different to any other student - They too are the pride of Hakoniwa School! - I will come to anyone’s aid - I will not look down on anybody!
Hitoyoshi – [out of box] despite standing above them… - What do I care, do as you wish! - Its not like I’m a member of the school council or anything anyway!
Page 31
Hitoyoshi – You… - Why are you guys…?
Guys – What of it… - We haven’t exactly got anywhere else to go - We just had time to spare - move it
Moji – We maybe a bunch of low-lifes - But don’t you dare - Confuse us for cowards
Page 32
Moji – As if - Being beaten to a pulp we’re just going to give this place up! - I’ll tell you now but you’ll never reform us! - If you think you can then just you try it!!
Medaka – Fine then, I’ll take on anyone’s problems - I’ll also take on anyone’s challenge - Ok, today we’ll start with 10000 strokes basic practice
Moji – It’s gone up 10 fold!?
[Box] – What the hell… This almost looks like - Like I was wrong about them!
Page 33 Medaka – Because I need you - I just want you to be by my side.
[Box] – Ever since I can remember - She’s always ended up standing above people - In face of her over powering personality - In face of her unquestioning dictatorship - Whilst being the envy of many - With a persona which rides above right and wrong - In the end - Noone can help but liking her
Page 34
[Box] – I should imagine that regardless of what hardships she is forced to bear - she would not resent a thing - she’d just carry on as she always does - I do really understand her - The one who was mistaken was me for sure - It’s just
Mystery guy – Damn it - You really can’t trust this damned council to do anything - I told her to get rid of the low-lifes didn’t I!?
Page 35
Hyuga – Who the hell cultivates weeds!? - Damn idiots!
Shiranui – Ah, little princess - Where are you heading?
Medaka – Ah, Shiranui? - I’ve got to go and give a speech at the school council recruitment meeting - I was just on my way to the 4th meeting room in the south wing
Page 36
Shiranui – One of your famed speeches! I wanna hear it too!
Medaka – Personally I don’t have any desire to recruit people through these bland meetings - The whole thing is basically to appease the teachers though
Shiranui – Ahaha - But that Hitoyoshi guy still doesn’t seem all that keen on joining yet, right?
Medaka – What’s this? Are you concerned about me, Shiranui?
Shiranui – As if? - I can’t imagine there would be any person in this world impertinent enough to worry about the perfect super human that is Medaka Kurogami!
Medaka – Quite true - And that’s why - Why I need Zenkichi by my side
Shiranui – Hmm - Ah - So what happened with the kendo hall incident in the end?
Medaka – I instructed them to supervise their own training till I get back - I hope to return them to their old innocent kendo loving selves as soon as is humanly possible
Shiranui – Heh…
[out of box] – so you still think they were once innocent…
Page 37
Shiranui – I wonder who it was who submitted the request in the first place though… - I suppose it was something which needed to be sorted - But in actuality who was it that was actually bothered - That a bunch of drop-outs were using the otherwise out of use kendo hall?
Medaka – I don’t know - I don’t wish to know - Without allowing the suggestions to be anonymous there is no point in the suggestion box - I will take on the request of anyone who submits
Shiranui – Ok then, say for example that there was a boy in my class who’s kendo was at national competition level but had a bit of a personality problem and that this person was involved in acts of violence all through middle school and also that this person is Hyuga and also that he was the person who submitted the request… What then?
Medaka – That wouldn’t change a thing
Shiranui – In which case - I have a request - You’ll take it on for me right?
Page 38
Hyuga – Damnit - And I was planning to pretend to be a good boy at high school.
Moji – Wh - Who are you…?
Hyuga – Me? - I’m just a serious 1st year - I want to do kendo seriously - I’m a seriously serious man
Page 39
Hyuga – But please do hear me out! - I’m not good at group activities and especially not club hierarchies - Always having to be nice to my seniors, always having to keep up the act - Not getting put forward for contests
Moji – So… so that’s why - Why you came to a school whose kendo club was disbanded…
Hyuga – That’s right! - Here I can do as I like without worrying about others - But I hadn’t counted on you guys - To think that there would be people lurking in such a grand kendo hall!! - And that’s why I sent in a request for that demon president of ours to de-weed this place - However she didn’t even manage that properly! - Oh, and don’t expect her to come and help by the way - Right about now that girl should be in the middle of a speech to council candidates - Although to think she cleaned this place so well, that saves me the effort at least - You shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth after all
Page 40
Moji - … Hey - Hey you! - Why the hell did you want to become the school president? - No offence but you don’t exactly look the type
Medaka – Do I need a reason to want to go as high as I can? - It just means I can see farther than I would do otherwise - That's all it is - Hey - I was even able to see you guys - Giving it your all
Moji – Heh - I don’t know what you’re talking about - Wai… - Wait…
Page 41
Moji – Don’t go running your mouth of as you pleased - I’ve just remembered - I used to passionate about kendo to!!
Guys – Ah, so did I - I did too - Me too - Once upon a time I was aiming to be Japan’s greatest swordsman - I think
Hyuga – Shut up! - You damned dropouts shouldn’t have a change of heart so damned easily! - Do you know what three times kendo means!? - It means that I’m three times stronger than all of you!!
Page 42
Hyuga – Hi… - Hitoyoshi
Hitoyoshi – So I can’t manage ‘barehanded disarm’ - no surprise…
Hyuga – Heh… - So you do plan on getting in the way then - You should have just played dead
Hitoyoshi – Well - that’s what I would have done if this lot hadn’t all got back up again - I wanted to go to the nurses room…
Hyuga – Argh?! Either way you should thank me! - I’m getting rid of the weeds which were dirtying school property!! - You think I’m right, right!?
Hitoyoshi – Yeah, Hyuga… - You are right
Page 43
Hitoyoshi – It’s just - Medaka is even more right - Everything Medaka does is right - Ever since I was two - I’ve watched her justice - I’m the one who understands her best - She might go over the top, it might seem to make no sense - But I’m the one who knows just how right she is!
Page 44
Hitoyoshi – I might not understand just what sort of pleasure she gets out of helping people - However if someone dares to try and go against Medaka’s justice - I will not forgive them!!
Hyuga – Keh! - Who cares if you forgive me or not!? - You’re all just a pain in the arse! - Oi! Do you know what three times kendo me…!?
Page 45
Hyuga - …ans!?
Hitoyoshi – Not a clue!
Page 46
Hyuga – Damn it… - Zenkichi Hitoyoshi… Who’d have thought he’d have been so formidable - GOD DAMN IT! - Thinking about it though he does get dragged around by the demon girl the all the time… - He’s not just another weed!! - However I will not let it finish like this! - One day I will beat him into a pulp!!
Medaka - My... - It's not something to get so worked up about, 1st year Hyuga
Hyuga - AAAAH!! - Miss president!?!
Page 47
Hyuga – Wha wha wha what the hell!? - What about the council recruitment meeting!?
Medaka – Hmm, No need for your concern - I prepared a replacement before coming
Hyuga – A replacement!?
Random – Erm - Please allow me the first question - Who on earth are you?
Shiranui – I’m the prime minister! (a pretty bad joke…)
Medaka – By the looks of you I’d say that my childhood friend deal you some potent medicine - As ever - It looks like the only person who ever worries about me is that Zenkichi. - I really - Appreciate it
Page 48
Hyuga – So… So what!? - Do you plan to get me back for using me then!?
Medaka – For using me!? Not at all, the student council is there to be used - Feel free to use make as much use of me as you wish - I made a promise did I not? - I will take on the requests of anybody, 24hours a day, 365 days a year - No matter the circumstances there are no exceptions - The reason I came to see you is completely different - “Please fix Hyuga’s bad personality” - So it says
Hyuga – Shi… - Shiranui!! - “bad personality”!?
Medaka – What a shame
Page 49
Medaka – It is so clear that once you were a boy as innocent as an angel
Hyuga – Gin.. - Ginyu force poses?!
Medaka – You were undoubtedly not blessed with love and good fortune leading to you walking the lonely path you walk today - Be at ease! - I will make is so you never want to do evil again! - I will take care of you thoroughly
Hyuga – Gya!!
Page 50
[Box] – Following that - what happened we do not know - However I hear that everyone is sharing the kendo hall friendly enough - The (temporary) kendo club - Is apparently being run under Hyuga’s instruction
Hyuga – why can’t you just do it like I tell you to!?
Moji – Eh? - Shut it!!
[Box] – Well, the long and short of it is - That Hyuga also ended up falling for Medaka Hyuga – I’m not doing it - Just because she told me to…
[Box] – And just a few days after the ordeal - were all I needed to make my mind up…
Hitoyoshi – Oh?
Page 51
Hitoyoshi – What’s with the flowers? - [out of box] they weren’t here yesterday
Medaka – Hm? - This is just an incentive to fulfil my official council duties - Every time I sort out a students problem, I put a flower on display - And at the moment I’ve got two
Hitoyoshi - Oh - So you do have a girly side to your personality then - And what do you do if you fail one of the requests? - Kill a flower off?
Medaka - I won't fail - Even if I do - I won't dwell on it - One day looking out over this room and seeing nothing but blooming flowers - Is my dream
Page 52
Hitoyoshi – I wonder if you can manage it - You ended up ditching the recruitment meeting meaning that the council doesn’t even have one new member
Medaka – Fine by me - From the off I never planned on working with anyone except you
Hitoyoshi – Why are you so set on me? - I’m just a childhood friend, - And some might say I’m just the same as any stranger
Medaka – You do say some odd things - You should know never in my life have I once considered you as a stranger - Because I am the person who understands you the best - And you are the person who understands me best! - Ever since we were two you were the one who was always worried about me - Its no different now, you are still the only person who protects me - Its only because of the reassurance you give me that I am able to help others!!
Page 53
Hitoyoshi – Well if that’s the case - Then give me one of those arm bands!
Medaka – What do you mean?
Hitoyoshi – It means I’ll let you mess me around!! - that’s what it feels like anyway - come one, you might as well give me an arm band! - I’ll help you turn this school in to a field of flowers, now hurry up and give it to me!!

Medaka – Yep - Do your best and claw your way up!
