Good afternoon, everyone!

Ibuki :　今日もがんばろーね!
Let’s do our best in today’s practice!

Yoichi :　剣を教える…か
Hmm, teaching sword-fighting …

拙者今まで教わる立場でござったからのう
Up to now, I have always been a student ~ degozatta

これも勉強になれでござる
So, this would be a learning experience ~ degozaru

Yoichi :　それにしても　いぶき殿
Besides, Ibuki-dono

子供にむけるまなざしのなんとおだやかなこと…
look so gentle towards children


!!! Page 112

Ibuki :　そうだ　与一さん
Yoichi san, I have a suggestion
( Lit. meaning : That reminds me, Yoichi san )

Ibuki :　与一さんもこの子たちに剣を教えてあげなさい!
Why don’t you also teach the kids sword-fighting as well?

Yoichi :　えっ
Eh?

Student : えー　お兄ちゃんもつよいのー?
Er…is he strong?

Ibuki :　強いよー!
Yes, he is!

Ibuki :　私よりずっとね!
Much stronger than me, in fact!

Student : 本当～?　見た～い! !
Is it so? I want to see you in action!

Student : 戦っているトコみせてー!
Please show us your skils!

Yoichi : い…いぶき殿
Ibuki-dono…

Yoichi : 拙者　見せるための剣は抜いたことがなくて…
My sword-fighting skill is not for showing off to people…

Ibuki :　大丈夫ですよ
It’s alright -

Ibuki :　ただ　私と手合わせてくれれば　それが手本になりますので
You just need to spar with me. That would be an eye-opener for the kids.

Ibuki :　それに…
Besides…


!!! Page 113

Ibuki :　ホントは　私が与一さんと手合わせしてみたいだけですから
My actual intention is just to have a match with you

Ibuki :　なんて
Get it?

Yoichi : いぶき殿…
Ibuki-dono…

Student : す　すげー
Gr-Great!

Student : 先生もお兄ちゃんも超つえー!!
Ms Ibuki and Brother Yoichi are so strong!
(lit. meaning : teacher and big brother are so strong!)

Yoichi : その腕前いか程かと思ったが
I was wondering which level you are at

Yoichi : いぶき殿…
Ibuki-dono…


Yoichi : 強い!!
She’s strong!

Yoichi : 伊達に師範代は名乗っておらぬな!
No one would have guessed that she’s just a stand-in instructor!

Yoichi : ならば少々
If that’s the case,

Yoichi : 本気を出させてもらうぞ!
I have to up my level by a notch!

Yoichi : おおッ
Aaaahhh!


!!! Page 116

Yoichi : あっ…
Eh?

Ibuki : …与一さん…
…Yoichi san…

Ibuki : あなたって人は本当にいつもいつも…
You never change, do you?

Ibuki :　最低ですっ!!!
You are the worst!


!!! Page 117

Student : ありがとうございー
Thank you

Student : ましたー
very much

Ibuki :　気をつけて帰るのよー
Be careful on your way back

Yoichi : いぶき殿　暴力的だから生徒が少ないんじゃ…
Ibuki-dono, maybe the reason for the lack of students because of your violent tenancies…

Ibuki :　何ですって!?
What did you say?

Yoichi : そういえばいぶき殿　
That remains me, Ibuki-dono

Yoichi : 妹御たちは皆　武道をやめてしまったと言っておったが…
You were saying that all your sisters have stopped learning martial arts…

Yoichi : 何か理由があったのでござるか?
Is there any reason for them doing so ~ degozaruka?


!!! Page 118

Ibuki :　ちはやは芸術家の母の血が濃いんですよ
As Chihaya inherited Mum’s artistic talents,

Yoichi : ほー!
Oh!

Ibuki :　だから元からあまりキョーミなかったみたいで…
Right from the start she wasn’t interested

Ibuki :　かごめは天才的に運動オンチなので…
Kagome is clumsy by nature,

Ibuki :　楽しくなかったみたいですね
She doesn’t seem enjoy it

Yoichi : …
…

Ibuki :　あと　あやめは…
Lastly, Ayame…

Ibuki :　うーん
hmmmm

Ibuki :　なんでやめちゃったのかしら
Wonder why did she stop?


!!! Page 119

Ayame : 今頃　アイツ
Now, Yoichi and Ibuki

Ayame : 姉貴と二人で道場かな…
Both of them are probably alone in the Dojo…
( I “moved” 姉貴 - Ibuki to the previous sentence so that it would sound more natural in English)

Ayame :って　何を考えるんだ!
Wait a sec! Why are my thoughts running wild?

Ayame :　関係ないだろ　アイツが何したって
Whatever he does has nothing to do with me, right!

Ayame :　バカじゃねーの
I’m such an idiot…


!!! Page 120

Ayame :　勝ってない勝負しないって決めたじゃんか
Haven’t I decided not to enter in a contest that I can’t win

Ayame :　ましてや相手は姉貴なら…
What’s more, if I were to go up against Ibuki…

Chihaya : ほー
Eh-

Chihaya :　なにやら　お困りの様子っスね
You seem very troubled

Chihaya :　あやめ姉
Ayame-ne

Ayame :　げ　原稿とかいいのかよっ
Do-Don’t you have your manga draft to do?

Chihaya :　無事終了っス
I have completed it

Chihaya :　風呂入って寝ようかと思ったんスが…
I wanted to have a bath and then go to sleep…

Chihaya :　何か様子が変っスよ　恋患いっスか?
You’re behaving strangely… is it because of a man?

Ayame :　バッ
Idiot!

Ayame :　バカじゃん!?　そんなんじゃねーよ　バーカ!!
Are you an idiot? It’s not what you think, you idiot!


!!! Page 121

Chihaya :　怪しいっスねー
That’s strange

Chihaya :　朝も心なしか与一っつあんへの態度がやわらかかったような…
In the morning, you seem to be friendlier than usual towards Yoichi-tsuan
( つあん / tsuan – a suffix that means big brother. I made a mistake in translation the last chapter by wrongly putting the suffix as “an”)

Yoichi : おはようでござる
Good morning

Ayame :　お…おう
Morning

Ayame :　うるせー　やめろー
Shut up! Just shut up!

Ayame :　 あ…あたしは別にあんな奴…
I-I don’t really care about that idiot…

Chihaya :　よし　決めた!　もう一仕事してから風呂にするっス!
Ok, I made up my mind to do one more thing before my bath!

Ayame :　 あ!?
What the?

Chihaya :　 与一っつあんへのこと好きとはいかないまでも気になってると見たっスー
I noticed that you are thinking of giving up on Yoichi-tsuan

Chihaya :　奥手なあやめ姉のかわりにボクが与一っつあんへのを取材してくるっス!
Since you are so shy, I’ll go in your place and interview Yoichi-tsuan!

Ayame :　えっ
What the?

Ayame :　ちょっ　余計なコトすんなって!!
Hey! Don’t do anything unnecessary!


!!! Page 122

Chihaya :　ふふん
Hmmm…

Chihaya :　礼には及ばないっスよ　あやめ姉
You don’t need to thank me, sis.

Chihaya :　これは　ボクの漫画をもっと面白くするための
This is to get inspiration for my manga
(lit meaning : this is to make my manga more interesting)

Chihaya :　取材っスから
to make it more interesting!
(lit meaning : I’m going to get materials! )

Why am I wearing such a dirty pair of shoes?

Washizu : 斑鳩さんの家の敷居をまたぐとゆーのに
If I enter Ikaruga san’s house with these pair of shoes…

Washizu : そもそもこの格好もどうなんだ?
In the first place, is this outfit alright?

Washizu : ラフすぐねえか!?
Isn’t it too casual?

Washizu : 家族にも会うってェのに何を考えるんだ俺は!?
What the heck I am doing? Meeting Ikaruga san’s family members in this outfit?

Washizu : ち…

In the mean time, wait for me, Ikaruga san!

Yoichi : う…傷にしみる…
いぶき殿は　ああも暴力的なのか…
Uugh… My whole body is covered with wounds…
Why is Ibuki-dono so violent?

Yo

Chihaya :　ちょーっといいっスか?
Can I have a moment with you?


!!! Page 126

Ibuki : まったく
Really

Ibuki :　あの道着　もう着れないわね…
I can’t possibly wear that Dougi again, isn’t it?
( Doubi – a loosely-ftting set of clothes worn during martial arts practice. Here, is it referring to the outfit the Ibuki wore during her sword-fighting instructional class at the beginning of the chapter. The one that Yoichi slashed to shreds in Page 116)

Ibuki : 何してるのかしら　あの二人…
What are those two up to?

Ibuki : 手までつないで
They’re even holding hands

Ibuki : べ…べつに手つないだって関係ないけどっ
I-I don’t particular care whether they are holding hands or not…

Ibuki :　でも与一さんが変なコトしないか心配だわ…!
However, I am worried that Yoichi san would do something strange!

Wow!
