- In the previous chapter of Popcorn Avatar,
- I, Kotohara Ren, mustered up my courage and told Fuji-kun, whom I like very much, the truth. [linked] That I’m a Deva.

- The result—
- The two of us achieved true love and everlasting happiness.

- At that moment, [linked] Fuji-kun disappeared!
Text above box: Mwahaha
Text beside Fuji: No—
- He must have been taken away by those evil Asura! Fine, I’ll use the power of love and justice to—
- Wrong!

02-----
Left side of page: The third Deva, Kotohara Ren aka Agni. Good thing she found an Avatar in her sweetheart, but…

- He just ran away!

- Noooooooo…
- Presently, we are engaged in battle with an Asura in this abandoned building.

03-----
- Although I’m a god… I’m at the age where I want to fall in love.
- Chapter 11: An angelic girl
- Volume 2 goes on sale 18 Feb.

04-----
- Be nice to the girl, Kurando, she just got dumped!
- Dump…!?
- The one in shock after catching a useless man is the female party!!
- Usele…!?

- This is neither the time nor place for that.

- Wind’s power isn’t having any effect on that bull-headed idiot…

- Even though I can move around, the inside of this room is the limit.
- Even worse, Kai tells me [linked] he has to hold back the thunder cos we’re surrounded by metal…

05-----
- What’s this?
- It feels like we’re on a stage with someone pulling our strings from behind the scenes?

- It’s not the enemy before us…
- Is it Vritra!?

- I’m furious, dammit!
- Ah,

- Kurando!?

06-----
- Anira! (Wind’s breath)

- Provata… (Head wind)

07-----
- Kurando…
- …tch.

Kai: Kurando-kun!!

- Water and thunder…
- Now listen up, you brats!!

08-----
- There’s no way brats like you can amount to anything in society!!
- This is a dog eat dog world! [linked] Against an adult male like me who’s accepted this truth, you have no chance of winning!!
- Woow Papa I’m shivering~~[heart]

- An grown man saying those things, what’s wrong with him?

- It has nothing to do with being an adult. [linked] Honestly, the Avatars on the side of the Asura are a bunch of idiots!

09-----
- You don’t even realise you’re being used by Vritra!!

- What’d you say damn brat!!

- Kai!
- H, here!

Kai: The water stores are…

- Don’t hold back!!

11-----
- No way~~
- Papa~~

- Waaaah… I wanted to be together a little longer…

- Ugh…!
- So this is what they mean by disappear!! [linked] If I lose, Amano-san will also…!!

12-----
- That’s enough, stop now, Kurando!
- Guh…
- This guy was just saying he’d harm our families. [linked] We should make it so he doesn’t have the guts to even think it again.

- Don’t be so uptight about it.

- Stop… kidding around!!
- There’s no need to eliminate someone who’s already been thoroughly defeated!

13-----
- You got complaints then voice them now!!!

- …tch.

- Waaah… I hate everything.

- Ah…
- Leave her alone.

14-----
- You sure about using such a low level Avatar?
- No problem.

- What we need isn’t to intimidate them into submission,
- rather, we wish to keep them on their toes with these daily skirmishes.
- …pfft.

- What?
- Oh, that was rude of me…

- I was thinking that despite your young age, you’re pretty well versed in using time to your advantage…
- I understand.

15-----
- We, the Metropolitan Police Department, are not in agreement about this matter.
- It is at my discretion that [linked] Avatars are continuing to be supplied to you.

- For the future we envision.

16-----
- What happened with those two?
- Wada is the same as usual,
- but Lisa…
- I wish they wouldn’t fight. There are others in the class too after all.

- I didn’t think I’d be this irritated about enemies not showing up.
- …and Lisa, [linked] I’m sure there’s still something she isn’t telling me.

17-----
- Damn Kurando! [linked] Deva using the same methods as Asura doesn’t mean anything! [linked] Anxiety? There’s no way!!

- If we lose, I’ll disappear from this world.
- Kurando…

- Kurando…
- Not telling him “that” might be selfish of me…

Blackboard: self study

- Hey Wada~~ go apologise to Lisa.
- Huh!?
- Even if you’re not in the wrong, do a dogeza! [linked] When Lisa gets angry the whole atmosphere in the class gets so heavy it’s unbearable.

18-----
- After all, you and Lisa already did that and that.
- I dunno what you’re on about!

- Lisa’s fine with anyone as her partner.

- Doofhead Kurando!!
- Not just anyone is fine!!!

19-----
- Got something else to say, huuuh!?
- Don’t be offended, Lisa!!
- Return to your corners!
Text above fingers: Ooone, twooo…

- He might need a stretcher!

- Doesn’t Lisa and Wada’s fight today seem really serious?
- No way— they were getting along so well…
- There’s no way a M can rebel against a S!

- Guh, [linked] owwww
- You okay? Ready for another round?

20-----
- What is this place?

Text cutting bubble: trepidation
- Uuum, what’s your name?
- Wada Kurando!
- 3rd grade!!

- 3rd grade?

- Boob attack—[clef]

21-----
- 3rd grade!!? [linked] Amnesia… no, memory regression…!?
- “Boob attack”, how low!
- Isn’t that a crime for a 16 year old?

- A, always… quit touching the…
- Ah, [linked] are you the blonde girl who was crying in the park?

22-----
- Guess not. Your boobs are too big…?
- Whoa, [linked] what is this!! [linked] How did I get so big!?

- Sheesh… I hope my class isn’t too noisy.
- Everyone, I’ve brought the printouts for self study—

- Umbrella in a typhoon!!

- Kyaaaaaaaaah
- Ahahaha! White— plain panties— [clef]

23-----
- Wa, Wawawa Wada-kun!>
- This is a shocking revelation.
- 3rd grade!?
- And Lisa!? [linked] He should go to the hospital!!

- …but can you believe it?

- This is bad. The current situation is pretty funny, but to think that perverted kid is Wada…
- how did that become the current Wada?

- Lisa!?
- Well, [linked] she’s just been sitting there bemusedly after Wada did that to her.

24-----
- 7 years ago

- sniff
- sniff
- hic

25-----
- I found a Hercules beetle!!
- Over there, don’t move!!

- Gotcha!
- Ah, he got away!

- That was a Hercules beetle!!
- It’s native to Central and South America, the biggest in the world!! [linked] Awesome, right!? Yet that one grew that big in Japan!!

- Ah,
- Sorry, sorry.

- Hm?

26-----
- That’s ink!!
- What happened to you, come here!

- …how horrible. Who did this to you?

- No one,
- I did this myself…
- Huh?

- Acha~~ this ribbon’s done for. [linked] It’s so black it won’t go back to its original colour.

27-----
- You look like an angel!!
- Eh…

- Wow— It’s sparkling, so pretty! [linked] Is your mom the same?
- …mm.
- It’s so pretty, why would you want to dye it black!?

- The boys in class…

- They say my hair’s weird… cos it’s different from everyone else’s… [linked] Everyday everyday everyday everyday everyday everyday they say it. [linked] I couldn’t bear it anymore…

- Huuuuuuh~~~?

28-----
- Your mother and father gave you this.
- You should be proud of it!

- You don’t dislike your hair, right?
- Mm.
- Then send those idiotic boys flying!!
- If you’re still depressed then…

- call me!!
Text beside bubble: Whew— I’m so cool—

- Kurandoo~~
- Where are you~~?
- Ah!
- Not good! They’ll kill me for leaving my little sis alone!!

29-----
- Bye! Call me anytime!
- Ah…
- Kurando…?

- And that was how I met Kurando. A little while afterwards,
- I beat up all the guys in one primary school,
- and the legend of Crusher Lisa was born.
- And then—

- Kurando,
- the incident that shaped the current Kurando, where Mafuyu-chan fell from that bridge, happened.
- I— have no desire for him to return to what he used to be like.

30-----
- It’s just, what I received from Kurando at that time,
- I’d like to give something similar to the current Kurando.

- Not just anyone is fine. Ever since that day, my Avatar was intended to be Kurando.

31-----
- You won’t get away!!!

- Don’t get above yourself!!

- Wada, you alive!?

Linked bubble: I… what was I doing?
- Wada’s back to normal!! [smaller text] disappointed

32-----
- From this day forth, Wada Kurando
- would receive the fervent support of certain guys,
- and be viewed by girls in the same light as they would a bug.

- …the current Kurando probably has no memory of what happened then.
- I want to ask, but I don’t… want to.

- Kurando, I want to talk. Come with me.

- A fight? A fight?

33-----
- The Avatar who loses will lose his memory?
- Sorry I kept it from you.

- Then the Avatars of the Asura we defeated…
- won’t remember their time as an Avatar.

- I couldn’t say it in the beginning, [linked] because…
- to Kurando, memories are sad, painful things…

- With Lisa’s personality, taciturnity feels weird coming from her…
- No um,
- what I want to say is…

34-----
- The way I am, I might not seem anxious or anything, [linked] but I’m often serious!
- And… I want you to believe one thing!!

- Kurando is the only one for me!!

35-----
- I,
- that is… [linked] Because of Lisa, my reasons for not losing have increased! So…

- What do you mean?
- …I can’t express this very well—

- I said my part. [linked] You have to say your part too.
- We should go back to class.

- Say it, be a man—!!
- Uh!

- Ouch!
- Quit nagging me, Lisa!!

36-----
- You’re not getting away until you say it~~~[heart]

- Not good, better change the subject…
- I see you still have that ribbon.

- Ngagagaga!?
- Wha!?
- Your memory…!?
- Well, I remembered just now.

- Continued in chapter 12

Kurando: Somehow today was really tiring…
Lisa: Same here.
- It was an action packed day…
