Manager: Did you teach him that method, Oonishi-sensei?
Oonishi: No...

Page 204:
Manager: So then Takitori taught him...?
Oonishi: Takitori Mountain did?
Mountains are fickle...
父のように厳しく突き放したかと思えば
You could think they're harshly pushing you away, like a father,
一転して母のように優しく迎え入れる時もある
and also the opposite, times where they tenderly usher you, in like a mother.
今までどれだけのクライマーが
To think how many climbers's lives
山の機嫌に その命を左右されてきた事か...
have been swayed by the temper of the mountains...
With Takatori mountain, he might have had the earnest feelings of the mountain handed down to him.
Oonishi: .........

Weirdo: Su...

It's calling me...!!!
SFX: HAH HAH

Page 206:
Oonishi (flashback): You've got it, right!? Make sure your rope is through the carabiner when you're climbing.
The belayer below will be guaranteeing your safety, so
even if you fall, you won't have to worry about dying. [This lines' actually different from the line he actually said.]

Fukumoto: He didn't put the rope through the carabiner!!
Geeze, what the hell's that guy thinking!!?

Page 213:
Manager: What a child...
For him leap up a mountain, abandoning his own life...

TL Note: To clear this up, the vast majority of these come from English and therefore don't need explanation. Though some tend to be technical climbing terms regardless, and many also come from German or Dutch or something and I just used the English translation, so I'll do these.
