Kokou no Hito 103

I can see what I've been climbing for. I can fell my goal in the air. But still I feel like I still have such a long way to go before I'm really there.

Title: Kokou no Hito [Isolated/Aloof Man] 11
The Climber
Penetrating Eye
Author: Sakamoto Shinichi
Original Story: Nitta Jirou "Kokou no Hito"

Back Cover:
Silver Text: Buntarou has had a reunion with his old friend Miyamoto. But while looking at the past with nostalgia, something deep down is unnatural about Miyamoto. And when the truth about Miyamoto is learned from Yumi... Buntarou shuts himself up alone at the peak of Mount Fuji in despair. But 3 months later, when he saves another, a lost woman named Hana, Buntarou's destiny begins to change...!?
Black Text: In a pit of despair, the only route to survival is moving forward-------.

Author Flap:
If "go" is said, "don't go."
If "don't come" is said, "go with."

In this world,
it is certainly not that simple, but...

people do not tell their real motives...

So in the end,
you can only move believing the things you've seen with your own eyes.

Sakamoto Shinichi

fated to climb together...!!!

Oonishi: This is roping yourself up.
When you're standing against nature in a place like a snowy mountain
you tie each other's lives together. Your destinies become a linked cooperative system as you aim for the summit.
[You can really tell how the art style's changed. I like it better now.]

Page 8:
Oonishi: Who knows, in 2 or 3 years
you two could become rope partners!!
Miyamoto: G-Gimme a break, Oonishi-san.
If I'm tied to this total beginner, no matter how many lives I have it won't be enough!!
Oonishi: Wahahahahahahaha

Mori: Again.
This afternoon, after he put some chalk on
he had no hesitation in any move.
Like I thought,
he's climbed quite a bit in these 6 years.
Ceuse,
France, huh...?

Page 11:
Mori: The fact that I couldn't understand without that sort of image
may be because I know nothing of overseas mountains...
Even though he's 24 just like me...
What have I been doing up until now...?
[Now, if you've been paying attention to the story carefully, you may know what's coming.]

[Ew. Yeah the idea is Mori feels inadequate. He can't figure out how to climb up that cliff and feels Miyamoto is still way ahead of him. But we know Miyamoto used a cam to help him.]

Page 16:
Mori: Even if I rush, there's no way around it.
All I can do is keep doing things I can do one by one.
SFX: PASHIH
I came here because
I want to know what method he used to climb this this afternoon.
If the routes for use to choose are overlapping like this,
then maybe someday we'll really tie ropes together...

This is the east gulf, so that full moon
should light this rock area until midnight...
Even so, compared to this afternoon
the visibility is overwhelmingly worse.
By taking one move at a time
I'll make sure to find each hold...

Mori: Eh?

Mori: There're no leftover chalk marks...?
Even though in order to get on top of this overhang
there should be no way besides twisting your fingers into this bad-sized crack...

Mori: There's some... [Italic on "there's"]
[He means some chalk, on the rock. It took me a while to figure that out.]
That guy,
how on earth did he climb this...?

Miyamoto: Yo.
What're you doing at a spot like that?
