Title: 77th Climb Trace
Somebody: He's
looking this way, again.

Page 84:
Niimi: If we move forward, so does he. If we stop, he does too...
If you've got something to say, spit it out already!!!
Komatsu: Niimi, don't be slow.
We have to reach Funakubo today no matter what!!
Niimi: Y-Yes, sir.
[Yes, this guy's story will now FINALLY be explained. He does in fact have a character.]

Page 85:
Kunieda: I'll take the top!!
Out of the way, Niimi!!
Niimi: Eh, again!!?
Ha...
Hang on a second, Kunieda-san...!!!
Niimi: ......Kunieda-san,
something changed with him, too...
Now that I think about it... ever since that moment...
our fates... might have been decided...

Page 86:
[You see it now? It's a skull.]
Mori: But... We still don't know for sure...
if everyone's dead...
Niimi: Heh...
It's nice to have some temporary consolation...

Page 87:
SFX: Kah
Guy: Inspector Obana, a new corpse has been recovered!!
It's on the slope of Mount Eboushi, 670 meters below the peak!!
We haven't yet verified their identity, but
we found the name "MURATA" written on one of his possessions!!
Niimi: Ey, Mori... That "Kunieda-san"...
Turns out he's really called Murata...
Mori: Eh?
Niimi: We're...
morons...

Page 88:
With someone with no parents, lovers, close friends, whom we didn't know what he was hiding deep-down,
we coolly put our lives in each others hands with...

SFX: Zah zah
SFX: Zaku zaku
Kunieda: Faster...!!
Faster...!!!
SFX: Zah zah

Page 90:
Komatsu: Slow your pace, Kunieda!!
We have ta choose our route with discretion he-...
SFX: BOH
SFX: BAKAH

[Not yet. But this should've been a hint.]

Page 92:
[And we also need to see a full page of it hitting the ground...]

SFX: Baki baki doshaaa
SFX: Gishi...
Komatsu: Kunieda, hold on tight!!!

Page 94:
Komatsu: Past Harinoki, the ridge line really tough, bending up and down all over.
雪庇の出方も複雑で神経をつかわなきゃいけねぇのは重々わかっているはずずら
You should be well aware of the complexity of how the snow overhangs jut out, and how delicate you have to be!!!

Komatsu: It was a good thing you fell from the schrund at the base of the overhang.
If you'd been in the center of a snow overhang, all together with the climbing ropes we'd have been dragged down, too!!
Niimi: Vice Captain, this is a bit odd...
His reactions have are dull, and something's off with how his eyes are focusing, too...
And on top of that, doesn't that kinda seem like cyanosis on his lips?

Page 95:
Niimi: And since yesterday, Kunieda-san hasn't been eating well.
Do you think maybe he's gotten *hypothermia...?
Asterisk: *A condition where your body temperature goes lower than 35°C. If left untreated, various abnormalities in one's physiology occur.
Niimi: ...Don't you think it would be better for us to take back Mori from here?
Komatsu: When we go to the real K2, there's gonna be very few people in the attack in the end.
This's the proper way for personal honor!!
We've got no use for traitors!!!
We'll head out tomorrow when it's still dark, now hurry 'n go ta bed!!
Niimi: Y-Yes...
Kunieda: No way...
...like hell.

Page 96:
Kunieda: I'll definitely get away...
No way in hell I'll be caught by that old man...
[I SEEEEE YOU]

Page 97:
Mori: In the end, I failed to join back with them.
I ended up just following them for another day...
Niimi: You snow path thief.
Mori: What kind of winter mountaineering is following in people's footprints?
I should stop... This is already meaningless.
[Ok so I dunno if Mori is talking to himself or what...]

Page 98:
Komatsu: Got it? You guys'll be continuing for 24 hours today.
No matter what, we'll make it to Eboshi in one go!!!

Komatsu: !!

Niimi: N-No way, did he...!!?

Page 100:
[If you haven't figured it out yet, Kunieda is running from that guy from the surgery thing in volume... 6 or something.]

Page 101:
[I mean, they already showed him and we had no idea who he was then, what's the point of showing him in silhouette...?]
