I should learn my lesson or something)... Oh well, I feel like a fool for not checking, but two translations never hurt anyone I suppose D: Anyways, this chapter is dedicated to all the Souseiseki fans :D

Text: Shinku
Text: Shinku
Pages 03 - 04:
Suigintou: Have you finally woken up, Thorn Princess? Shinku: Suigintou? Where… / Where are we…?
Kirakishou: This is the 42951st world…… Shinku: !? / Kirakishou… Kirakishou: This is my world, my honourable sisters.
Page 05:
Suigintou: The seventh doll… Where are you hiding? Show yourself! / Let’s settle this.
Kirakishou: …No. No, Onee-sama. // I won’t show you this unsightly form.
Kirakishou: I worked so hard to enter a body in the unwound world, but… // …somehow I was forced out of it.
Kirakishou: How humiliating… / Humiliating… // Humiliating… Suigintou: What’s she talking about? Shinku: ……
Page 06:
Shinku: From the start, Kirakishou was always a doll without a physical form. // Because Souseiseki, who owns the body she took and occupied,is joined by her ring’s contract… / …there was no room for the Parasite, Kirakishou.
Shinku: It seems the purely astral Kirakishou has been considerably damaged. // She can’t even keep her form in her own field…
Suigintou: …… Thoughts: It’s here… Souseiseki’s Rosa Mystica / is still here…
Thought: Then that body is…? Shinku: What happened to Souseiseki!? / What happened to Souseiseki’s body after you left it…!?
Bubble: I’m here.
Pages 07-08: No words, just an incredible amount of awesome.
Page 09:
Shinku: …So…
Suigintou: Souseiseki…!!
Souseiseki [squeeeee!]: Hey… Long time no see. // Been doing well, dolls?
Shinku: What… That’s… / How did you… Suigintou: Wait, Shinku!
Suigintou: Are you sure that’s the real Souseiseki? / It’s probably a fake. Remember whose territory this is…
Page 10:
Souseiseki: …I heard a voice calling. // There was the touch of warm fingers… and a voice clinging to “A doll just for me”.
Souseiseki: It was… A voice I remembered, calling someone’s name.
Souseiseki: That was a named I’d been searching for for a long time. // My name…
Boxes: From there… // I reached out to a lost child to get him to return home.
Page 11:
Shinku: Jun…? Text: The wound Jun and the unwound Jun are both maestros…
Suigintou: Huh… Something that stupid can’t be possible. // Her Rosa Mystica is inside me, right?
Suigintou: A body in the Ether needs a Rosa Mystica to stand up. / Then who is that Souseiseki? Won’t someone say she isn’t a fake created by number seven?
Souseiseki: Suiseiseki and I are twin dolls. / We shared our opposing eyes and were born with the same clothing and bodies.// Among us sisters, we are especially close.
Page 12:
Souseiseki: Did you know? Of the fragments that were given to us from the Rosa Mystica that had been divided into seven pieces… / …Only our two stones were identical. // Father told me.
Suigintou: No… Then she… / …put her own Rosa Mystica into her twin sister’s body…?
Souseiseki: There was a possibility it could have failed. Both of us could have broken. // …But you understand that.
Thought: Always together…! Souseiseki: It looks like I’ve recovered.
Page 13:
Shinku: Souseiseki… Suigintou: Stupid… How pointless. // This doesn’t make you two beautiful…
Suigintou thoughts: Suiseiseki probably didn’t expect me to be there. // If she knew I was there she might have tried a different method…
Souseiseki: I have lost the Alice Game once… Suiseiseki still thinks otherwise, but… // …You who stole a Rosa Mystica are not the winner.
Page 14:
Souseiseki: It’s true. / This body isn’t beautiful.
Souseiseki: We should return to our proper bodies. / Suiseiseki’s Rosa Mystica to Suiseiseki. // …And I to…
Souseiseki: …A wordless doll again… // ………
Bubble 1: Anyway, for now we should think of getting out of here. Bubble 2: …You’re right. / When we get back we should all have a tea party together. Bubble 3: …Don’t be ridiculous.
Page 15:
Door: Click
Jun: Uwawawawawa Canaria: Kyaah
Jun: Haa… This one is wrong too. / The n-field is huge… Canaria: I wonder…
Jun: Which is the door to the Unwound World!? / Not “I wonder”! Aren’t you here to guide me!?
Page 16:
Bubble 1 (Cana): As I said! Have you thought about what is behind the door, I wonder!? Bubble 2 (Jun): Sigh… At this rate, will I ever get home, I wonder… Bubble 3 (Cana): Will you stop copying me, I wonder!!
Jun: Not here either… Canaria: Hey, Jun. Jun: What?
Canaria: You know? Just maybe? / I don’t know, but maybe… Jun: What is it?
Canaria: The zeroth world is broken, but… / I wonder… if we can’t return as things are. Jun: ? // Huh?
Canaria: So, you know, um…. The world we saw before might exist? / That might have been the true unwound world, so…… ummm… Jun: ? // ?
Canaria: In other words!
Page 17:
Canaria: We Rozen Maidens are like uninvited guests… // ..in the time in which Jun chose not to wind.
Picture with pen: [uncircled:]Wind?[circled:] Don’t wind?
Jun: Yeah… I know that. // And that’s where Shinku showed up, isn’t it?
Bubbles: Because Shinku, who wasn’t supposed to come, did come, the unwound world became strained. // The world hates irregularities. / Shinku, particularly in a replica body, has a limit to how long she can exist there.
Page 18:
Jun: …Yeah… Canaria: Do you understand, I wonder? / I’ll make my explanation simple from here on.
Canaria: Her time limit came while she was fighting with Kirakishou. / When Shinku and the others disappeared, the stopped time all rewound, so... / As for Shinku being reborn in a place she never came to… Jun: Hey, Hey… Wait wait. I don’t get it at all.
Canaria: Oh for goodness’ sake! // In other words…
Jun: To make it so that it “has happened,” you must not return with them. // If you do then everything until now…
Jun: …It won’t have “happened”…? Canaria: That’s right!
Page 19:
Jun: It will have “not existed”? // Everything I’ve made… / My “now” would…?
Jun: That… Canaria: We will all return to the point where time is stopped! / If we do that, then…!
Jun: …Yeah.
Jun: Alright…! Well, firstly let’s look for Shinku and the other dolls. Canaria: Roger! I wonder! Canaria: Huh?
Page 20:
Canaria: Jun, what’s that sparkly thing? Jun: Sparkly? Canaria: On your sleeve.
Jun: …What’s this? // White… thread?
Suigintou: Ku…
Shinku: It’s no good… It won’t quite break. // Even though we can see a gap…
Bubbles: Those needle-like crystals seem different from the rest. // The ones that are interlaced like a spider’s webs…
Souseiseki: A spider soon kills any prey its web catches. Like how the prey is weakened by being bound in thread, / I think that is why we have been left here.
Page 21:
Suigintou: Where are you, Kirakishou!? / Answer me!
Bubble 1: … Bubble 2: She doesn’t seem to be here anymore… Bubble 3: She’s probably planning to restore her body while she hides.
Bubble: We’re just waiting to be eaten then…!? Souseiseki: …… // Wait.
Souseiseki: What… // is that…?
Page 22
Jun: Hey everyone…! Everyone: !?
Shinku: Jun…!? Suigintou: What…? How did you…?
Jun: I followed Kirakishou’s thread here. / …? For some reason you look awfully small… Well, it doesn’t matter.
Shinku: Jun… Jun: Hold on! I’ll help you!
Page 23:
Jun: Alright… Canaria: Big Jun…
Jun: Wh…at? // Huh…?
Canaria: It seems we can’t go through even though we can see them… / I wonder if they are just shadows being reflected by the crystals!
Canaria: Deception is the last sister’s specialty! Their real location is probably hidden! Jun: Damn it… Even though I can see them… / We’ve come this far, but I don’t know what to do…
Page 24:
Thought: They [or you/I] need to return to their original world… // Furthermore, the Wound Me’s hiding place might soon be discovered because of this thread. // If I don’t hurry…
Jun: Deception… deception…? Damn. / The dream full of fake parts was bad… // This is her special skill?
Canaria: Fake parts? Jun: I found Shinku in a mountain made from an incredible number of parts. I didn’t expect to find her so fast… Canaria: Fake…
Canaria: If so, then there’s no way they could have all been there. / She probably distracted you with afterimages. Jun: You… think so?
Canaria: You can leave it to Cana from here! // I wonder <3 Text: The Rozen Maidens’ thinker, Canaria, shows what she does best!?

So here:

Page 001:
Top: A new development!! “Beelzebub”
Left: Parting is hard, but smile as you see them off! Laugh like you’ve heard a great joke! …huh!?
Furuichi: Returning to the Demon World? Who are?
Oga: The doctors. The doctors are. // I already told you, the midget and the wise dude.
Oga: Baby Beel recovered, so they’ve got nothing to do. // They’ll be going back to the Demon World soon. Furuichi: Huuuh // What the hell? [Wordplay alert: Okay, this word/phrase ‘honmakai’ literally means ‘real Demon World’ and ‘Is that true?’ – This is the closest I could think of.]
Text: What the… / …hell?
Page 002:
Top: Beelzebub
Right: Anger? Hate? Sadness? I don’t need them!!
Bottom left: Tamura Ryuuhei Bottom Right: Babu 41 – What the hell
Page 003:
Doctor Girl: … // Lame.
Doctor Girl: What are you doing…? // Making a joke? // I’ll say it again for you. // We’re returning to the Demon World. Furuichi: Shut up!! Go home already!! // It wasn’t on purpose…
Doctor: Yes, we want to, but… // …Alandelon is nowhere to be found.
Bubble: We thought you might know where he is since you live together… // sigh…
Page 004:
Furuichi: No. // I don’t know either. / That old guy is usually out of the house.
Doctor: …Is that so? // This could be problematic… Doctor Girl: ……
Doctor Girl: Master, // that means we don’t have to leave today!! // I can be with Beelze-sama for a little longer…
Bubble 1: Don’t be stupid. Bubble 2: We have a lot of patients in the Demon World too. Bubble 3: Boo…
Hilda: So he won’t appear even if you call him?
Page 005:
Bubble 1: Hilda-san!! Hilda: I use this device to call Alandolon, but… // he hasn’t responded. Oga: What a pain. Bubble4: But he’s a dimensional transfer demon. Bubble 5: If someone close to him calls, he’ll probably come flying here, Furuichi.
Furuichi: I don’t know about that… Doctor Girl: Call him!! // Or do you want me to tell everyone about that lame joke!? Small text: Close…? Haha…
Hilda: Lame joke? Doctor girl: Yes, actually… Furuichi: Al-al-alright!! // Stop telling it to Hilda-san!!
Bubble 1: You’ll call him? Furuichi: Well… I’d like to ask a favour of you, Hilda-san…!! Bubble 3: Nope.
Page 006:
Hilda: Well, there’s no way… // …in hell. Text: Aaaaaahh! What a sadist…!!!
Oga: Hurry up and call him. Furuichi: You shut up!!
Text: He’ll come if someone close to him calls? / In that case, Hilda-san or Baby Beel should call him. // And what should I do if he does come? That’d be really creepy.
Text: No! Don’t come! // You must not come!!
Furuichi: A… // Alandolon
Page 007:
Alandolon: You called? Text: Gyaaaah!
Bubble: No, how rude of me…
Alandolon: I was calling my family, so… Hilda: So that’s why I kept getting the call waiting message. [small text:] That was negligent of you. [/small] Oga: Call waiting…? Furuichi: ……!
Page 008:
Bubble: Well then…
Alandolon: Have the two of you…
Alandolon: …made your preparations?
Oga: So why did I have to come? Doctor Girl: To see us off! Furuichi: By the riverbank again…
Furuichi: Um… / Can’t you change the location for this?
Page 009:
Hilda: No. // Transfer to the Demon World is special.
Hilda: In order to cross over… // …Energy from nature, like mountains and water is needed.
Hilda: Furthermore, / the mass that can be transferred at one time is limited. // There aren’t many demons who can transfer two people at the same time.
Hilda: That’s more or less Alandolon. // He is exceptional.
Page 010:
Text: Sigh… Furuichi: She sure doesn’t mind bossing people about.
Lamia: Beelze-sama
Oga: Huh? What do you want, little kid? // Go back home!
Lamia: Not you. // I need to say goodbye to Beelze-sama
Oga: Tch
Oga: Here Beel: Aaah Oga: If you could, I’d like you to take him with you. Lamia: Don’t… Don’t be stupid.
Page 011:
Beel: Aaah Lamia: …Beelze-sama
Beel: Aaah. Aaah.
Lamia: Please… // Become a great Demon King.
Lamia: No matter what. // I’ll your ally!! // Okay?!!

Hilda: Yeah. // I hope so.
Hilda: Let’s meet again, // Lamia.
Lamia: ~~…Hilda-neesan
Lamia: Hilda-nesaaaaan! Alandolon: It’s time to go!
Page 013:
Alandolon: Now then…
Lamia: See you!
Bubble 1: The Demon World, huh… Bubble 2: I wonder what kind of place it is. Bubble 3: Keh! I don’t care. Bubble 4: It’d be a gloomy place anyway.
Furuichi: Hm?
Page 014:
Lamia: Be… // Beelze-sama…
Lamia: What are you doing here? Beel: Aah
Text: Baby Beel Demon World Me Dead
Oga: Where do you think you’re going!!? Furuichi: Oga!

Lamia: No way! I can’t!! Has the transfer already started!? Lamia: Beelze-sama, I beg you! Please let go! Oga: Hey, Furuichi! Give me a hand here!! Furuichi: Are you serious? Hilda: Young master…
Bubble 1: Arrrgh! Lamia: Kyaaah! Bubble 3: It- It’s no good. Furuichi: Hilda-san, help us too…

Bubble: Gyaaah! Hilda: ……
Hilda: …… / Oh no… // This…

If nothing else, it’s probably a good idea to get a brief understanding of what ‘onmyou’ is before reading (related words being onmyouji and onmyoudou). - This was a humongous effort for someone at my (not exactly high) level of Japanese. But I'm enjoying the manga. - Yomi is awesome. ----------------------

Upper-left: Chapter 1
1st line: The city that continues to distortedly multiply, the Imperial Capital “Teito”
2nd line: The warped world gives rise to “Negative stagnation”
3rd line: That stagnation opens the “gate” between dimensions and between worlds.
Page 006:
Bubbles: You… // …are not meant to be here.
Glasses-man (Abe): Leave.
Text: “Anger”, “sadness”, “impatience”, “exhaustion” – They are “oni” that feed on peoples’ negative emotions.
Bubble: I can see them, Inu.
Girl: This place is full of negative feelings.
Text: Since long ago there were those who exorcised the oni, their natural enemies.
Oni: Gishaaa
Bubble: They’re so destructive.

Sign: Teito Police Headquarters, 69th Branch Office Bubble: Well then, Heizo-kun. This is what I think.
Bubble: Of course we’re shorthanded!! I’ve been saying that for a long time. Why don’t we find a new subject to talk about? Sign: Onmyou 2nd division
Blonde guy (Heizo): Well… you know, about that… // How do I say this? It looks like we don’t know… exactly where she is? Abe: Huh!?
Abe: Huuuuh!? Text: Whaaaat was that? Heizo: No, well, she was meant to arrive in the capital two days ago, but… Speaker: Emergency calls x2! Level C oni have appeared in Uchichi district of the Old Circle!
Abe: …… Speaker: Jurisdiction is currently following them. In charge is…
Page 009:
Sign: Onmyou 1st Division Man: The Second Division always seem to have it tough. Abe: Well I wouldn’t mind letting the First Division have some of these jobs.
Man: Haha, You’re joking, right? There’s no way the First Division would show up for something like a Level C, you know. Text: Haha
Abe: …..That’s for sure. Text: hahaha
Abe: Keh! // Anyway, I’m going. You hurry up and find the new member! Heizo: Abe-kun.
Girl: Please wait. Abe-san, you’ve been so overworked. // You haven’t had a break since last week… / [Abe:] Shut up! Abe: I have to take care of those third-rates. Text [Heizo]: A servant is supposed to use keigo to speak to superiors… [T/N: Keigo is a very polite way of speaking.]

Oni: Who are you, you…...
Text: Pre-emptive strike!!
Abe: Your natural enemy!!
Page 012:
Bubble: So… This is the power of a practitioner of the onmyou division…? Thought: Did he even use onmyou powers just then…? Abe: Hey, can you stand? // Dammit. Of course you’ll be noticed by an oni if you’re playing around at night smelling like piss. Girl: Aaahn
Abe: Hurry up and go home, take a dump, and go to sleep, idiot.
Abe: Tch // Grouping together like that, are you a bunch of schoolgirls or something!!?
Abe: You with the droopy eyes, take the kid and run. Longhair guy: A… And you?

Thought: Kids…!? Abe: Just now… was that you?
Girl: Just who to you think you’re talking to, old man? Small text: Aaahn Abe: What did that kid say…!?
Thoughts: Besides standing and eating, this little girl knows about the increase. // She’s definitely something like a slum dweller! She’s such an unrefined girl!! / [small text:] She’s got a Kansai dialect too. [/small]
Abe: Hm!?
Abe: The emblem of the onmyou division? Where is she affiliated with…?
Abe: Ah! Don’t tell me this little girl is… Girl: …
Geizo: That’s right! // She is… Abe: Heizo Small text: We finally found her…
Page 18:
Heizo: …the new member of… // …the second division. Small text: I’ll eat this next.
Small text [ninja guy]: How is it?
Heizo: For that matter, where have you been for the past two days? Did you think it would be fine to just go sightseeing for all that time? Girl: My my, country folk are really noisy. Ninja guy (Inu): They sure are. Small text: This is delicious.
Heizo: Huh!? How insulting!! My city boy lineage stretches back for generations, you know!? Girl: Mahaha! However, more importantly, you’re country boy deep down, aren’t you? Inu: How embarrassing. Abe: Oi, Heizo.
Page 019:
Heizo: What is it? Just so you know, I’m the boss, so addressing me without an honorific is… // Excuse me? Abe: This isn’t the time for your little drama. Small text: I’m the division head. The head.
Heizo: …Ah
Abe: We have guests! Heizo: Hiii!
Page 020:
Heizo: Why are there so many of them!? // Call for reinforcements immediately!! Abe: They wouldn’t come in time.
Girl: My my, all this over 10 or 20 small fry… Abe: 10 or 20 would be fine.
Abe: It’s just that no matter how you look… there must be 300 of them!
Heizo: !!! Demon: Gishaa Small text: Over there too.
Heizo: What is with these numbers…?
Page 21:
Heizo: Ah! I see! This is… Abe: What!?
Heizo: It’s ‘that’, Abe-kun… Several years ago there was a social incident.
Heizo: Because a certain corporation did a lot of downsizing, // a mass suicide occurred here!!
Heizo: Furthermore, there have been reports of similar incidents in this area… / It’s likely that all those negative thoughts collected together and took form as…!? Abe: There has been a lot of arson and purse snatching too!
Girl: Ha
Page 022:
Girl: Jeez. // Listening to the capital always amazes me. / That’s enough reason to defend this city…
Girl: …Don’t you think?
Heizo: That goes without saying, it’s the capital. / Therefore…
Heizo: ...Although it’s unreasonable, protecting the townspeople is… // …our responsibility! [T/N: A second meaning for the word ‘responsibility’ is ‘Buddhist religious services’] Oni: Why just me? // Why can’t we vent our resentment…? // What’s a division head? // Afufu // What’s a society?
Page 023:
Yomi: Unreasonable indeed… So for now what you’re saying is that all we have to do is kill them all? // Quickly now…
Abe: Wrong, little girl
Abe: Our job isn’t to destroy them. // It is to free their souls.
Abe: To save the departed spirits who have... // ...fallen into darkness!

Abe: Oh, right…
Abe: If you’re scared, feel free to hang back, little girl!! // Ha! Oni: Dark hearts // Sadness // Gishaaa // Those guys… // Hatred // Bitter
Girl: You really are a true… // …idiot.
Abe: Hahaha! Onii-san hates it when you use words like that [star-shape] // Little girl!! Girl: Onii-san!? Small text: Do you want me to kill you, old man!? Heizo: Is this some kind of contest to you!? Abe: I’ve beaten up 37!!

Girl: Be quiet. One of me can easily take 100 of their heads. Abe and following bubbles: Well, I can do 200, no sweat. / I can do 300! / 400! / 50000! / There aren’t that many of them!
Oni: LIZZEN TO WHAD I’M ZAYING!!
Oni: Our grudge is deeper than the ocean…
Girl: Shut up, child!!! // I don’t want to hear some worthless sob story!!
Page 026:
Oni: The era is bad! Society is bad! Yet, we are not bad!!! // Our… // Our pain… Girl: You sound like pubescent school children. / A good adult keeps their complaints to themselves.
Girl: In the world, you can’t simply do as you please. // That should be obvious.

Oni: A monk’s pain… // What do you understand!?

Girl: I don’t understand you, and…
Girl: …I don’t care about understanding you.
Oni: This little girl is…!!! Heizo: That girl’s intense… // …but listening to her is a bit depressing. Girl: Haha! Born from the corruption of the netherworld.

Inu: Sorry. Girl: Ahaha!
Oni: M… Monster!! Text: Gyaah

Girl: Which of us is the monster? Heizo: You…
Girl: !
Abe: What is this huge spirit energy!? Heizo: Abe-kun…
Abe: There’s an evil energy! // It’s coming closer!! [smaller text:] I can feel it!! [/small] Heizo: You can feel it?
Abe: There. Heizo: Kyaaa! Bubble on right: Smash
Page 030:
Abe: A huge Cyclops, huh? Abe text: No, maybe a high priest…!!? Hiezo text: High priest? What are you talking about!? Heizo: Isn’t it just a one-eyed oni!? / It’s definitely an oni. Abe: This kind of uproar isn’t just level A! It’s S-class, S-class!!
Heizo: Was it called here by all the accumulated negative thoughts…?
Heizo: Or did this large one pull all the small oni to itself…?
Girl: Haha! / I thought there were just small fries, so why is this one here!!? Heizo text: That’s it. Goodbye~
Abe: What will you do, little girl? Girl: If you’re scared, feel free to hang back, right?
Abe: Do-Don’t be so rude!! // If my fist hits that thing… Girl: Then buy me some time. You can do that much, can’t you?
Page 31:
Abe: Don’t underestimate me, little girl! // I am an “Onmyoukidou”, the natural enemy of oni!!

Yomi: Furube yurayurato // Furube
Heizo: Ah. // She’s so overwhelming…
Abe: It’s nothing special.
Page 033:
Abe: ! Yomi: It’s complete.
Yomi: You were a little useful, middle-ager. // Just a little, though.
Abe thought: Spirit balls are forming. Abe: The secret art of shaking spheres…? [I don’t know how to make this sound cool…]
Yomi: Be obedient and…
Page 034:
Yomi: …return! *To return them to their true selves.
Page 035:
Heizo: The secret art of shaking spheres… // That was a ceremony of presenting the sacred treasures… I guess. Abe: Yeah. / What an impressive little girl.

Yomi: …Maybe I can relieve my boredom, Inu! Inu: Right! https://mangahelpers.com/t/livyatan/releases/18145Translation: Narutaru 002009-12-08T14:53:49+00:00Livyatanadmin@mangahelpers.comI'm just doing this for myself. Dark Horse has already published this in English, so you probably aren't interested in this, especially if you're a scanlator. I just don't like what I've seen of the Dark Horse translation, and I need a bit of practice, so here I go (at a snail's pace):

Bubble: Guinness 01, the unknown is still proceeding, with no change in velocity or altitude.
Bubble: This is Guinness 01. Understood. / The leader told me too. // I’ll contact him.
Bubble: Tally ho!
Pilot: What? // Wow.
Text at bottom: This story is fiction etc.
Page 009: [no speech]
Page 010:
Pilot: What is… // …this thing?
Pilot: Ah
Page 011:
Bubble: I overshot!!
Text at bottom of page: Going too far.
Pilot: It has that kind of mobility!!?
Bubble: I lost sight of it
Page 012:
Bubble: I can see it from here.
Pilots: The target is directly below you. // We want a report on the target!!
Pilot: Below!!?
Bubble: Mihara!! After it!!
Bubble: You idiots!! // I’m sending visual data!!
Bubble: Major Mihara!! Do it!! // It’s plunging into the ocean!! Small bubbles: huff // huff // huff // huff
Page 014:
Bubbles: huff // huff
Pilot: It charged into the sea at that speed!? // No way!!
Pilot: Are you okay, Mihara?
Mihara: Sorry. // Maybe…
Mihara: …that was... // …one of them. https://mangahelpers.com/t/livyatan/releases/16533Translation: Sanjin Sadou 12009-10-03T14:58:32+00:00Livyatanadmin@mangahelpers.comPhew, this was harder than the shonen manga I'm used to... Anyways, glad to have finally gotten started. I hope the quality's good enough ^^; I'm not really sure how much explanation I should give for the Japanese monsters and spirits... ----------- Sanjin Sadou Chapter 01
Page 005:
Chapter 1: Silver hair, black eyebrows
Page 006:
Black-haired Girl [Suzuko]: Ah!
Suzuko: My usual one isn’t there…
Suzuko: *sigh* // I guess I’ll have to put up with this one…
Page 007:
Suzuko: Silver hair… and black eyebrows… // He’s got his head in the clouds…
Bird: Chi / Chi
Suzuko: Uhyaa / It’s like a fairytale.
Page 008:
Silver-haired man [Fubuki]: Yep / Yeah // That way? Got it. / Thanks for your hard work.
Panel: Doki doki / Fairtale <3 / (A little bird on his shoulder) Flower / Last hope [in centre of panel ] / Landmines / Danger!! [kanji = electricity wave] / (Talking with a little bird)
Text: Danger!! [Again, kanji = electricity wave] Box: See you later! [kanji = abyss]
Page 009:
Suzuko: …………..!?
Suzuko: Wha… Text: An illusion…?
Suzuko: I’m home.
Suzuko: I saw this really weird person today. // He had silver hair and black eyebrows…
Voices: Ah, Sadoukokugetsushinkun… / Well then, you…
Page 010:
Father[presumably]: Welcome home, Suzuko. Mother[presumably]: You’re early. Sadou: Hoho // A weird person with silver hair and black eyebrows…
Fubuki: Would that be me?
Father: You’ve heard grandma’s tales about a hermit, haven’t you?
Father: Her stories about sealing ghosts with jutsus. [Jutsu = technique, art]
Page 011:
Suzuko: Yeah.
Mother: Well, // It seems the stories weren’t made up.
Suzuko: Huh? Mother: This person is the sennin, Fubuki-san. [Sennin = hermit, mystic, sage]
Fubuki: Yeah. / I thought there might be something nearby, and that it would be good for me to be here / to see the situation. // …But
Fubuki: Maybe I was a bit late.
Fubuki: A jutsu-user has passed away, their sealing-jutsu hasn’t been renewed, and a blood-relative hasn’t been initiated. // The harm running loose won’t end with only a fracture or a cold.
Mother: Can… / Can something be done about it?
Suzuko: Hold it!
Page 012:
Suzuko: You’re just stirring up and taking advantage of peoples’ worries in order to make some outrageous demand, aren’t you!? Father: Suzuko
Fubuki: Well, it will cost money. // But not that much.
Suzuko: Taking money from people in trouble is the absolute worst!
Father: Suzuko, cut it out. Fubuki: I can’t eat mist to live, you know. // This is business, young lady. Suzuko: What the hell!
Suzuko: Eat mist to live! // You’re a sennin aren’t you?
Suzuko: You // Silver-hair-white-eyebrows!!
Fubuki: Well… As long as it’s free. Father: He said it. Suzuko: Okay! Text under the table: How weak.
Page 013:
Mother: This is it. / According to my mother-in-law’s stories, she sealed an obake [a ghost] into this ornament.
Fubuki: It’s making a good face. Mother: Huh?
Fubuki: Ah, never mind. / Anyway, I’ll get started.
Fubuki: [Not Japanese, just scribble ie. He’s doing his incantation in a language other than modern Japanese]
Suzuko: What a phony…
Fubuki: Come forth! / Reveal yourself // I compel you!
Page 014:
Fubuki: Ow
Page 015:
Suzuko: One point to the ghost…
Fubuki: Other monsters, like seirei [spirits] and youkai [general spirit/demon/ghost] are generally fine as “neighbours”.
Fubuki: But even among “neighbours” there are those who may be unkind or harmful.
Fubuki: That guy is one of that kind. Suzuko: Hmm… // So, what are you going to do about it?
Fubuki: ……..
Fubuki: The moment I confronted it, my body went numb and I couldn’t move. Does he overreact to strangers’ reiki? [Reiki = spirit energy] // In that case, a person from this family should be able to do it…
Father: ! // One of us… / “Do it”?
Fubuki: Yeah. // With Reiki.
Father: What! [small text]That’s dangerous.[/small text] // There must be some other way…
Page 016:
Fubuki: Um, let me see… Suzuko: …. Father: We’ll pay you… // So…
Fubuki: “You’ll pay me”? // “So”?
Suzuko: I will do it!
Fubuki: Oh? Father: Suzuko! / It’s too dangerous…
Suzuko: Dad, this is our family’s problem. // This is something grandma left here.
Suzuko: Furthermore, no matter how I look at him, this weak-looking person is USELESS! // It’s impossible for you two in your conditions.
Father: But Suzu… Suzuko: BASICALLY,
Page 017:
Suzuko: I’m just doing the actions. You’re injured.
Fubuki: Listen. Keep your eyes on that arm, because it will attack with a big swing. Since you’re from this house you won’t go numb and you should be able to dodge it. Suzuko: Yes.
Fubuki: You will probably be okay if you just bend a little. // Confuse it, and thrust straight at it. // Take it down with everything you have!
Page 018:
Suzuko: Uwaaaah!
Page 019:
[Nothing]
Page 020:
Parents: Suzuko!
Fubuki: Ha
Suzuko: That… // was scary… Fubuki: You did well.
Page 021:
Suzuko: …….
Suzuko: Do you really know my grandma? Fubuki: Yep. // She’s my master.
Fubuki: I’m currently training to succeed her. // How old is she anyway?
Suzuko: If she’s a hermit then she might use a rejuvenation jutsu. [Small text:] What an unpleasant laugh. [/small text] Fubuki: Hyahyahya
Fubuki: I’m on a cold-hearted round—trip. I’m seeing the places that master talked about.
Suzuko: Cold-hearted? Fubuki: Uh… Something like a training journey. Suzuko: Hmm… Are you going back to your journey already?
Fubuki: When I return home, I’ll find a place to put this. See you later.
Page 022:
Suzuko: Is that thing really alright as payment..? Fubuki: Sure. // I like stuff like this. // [Small text: Also, I did practically nothing[/small text]
Fubuki: Thanks for showing me the way. My shikigami[the bird/paper thing – like a familiar] can guide me to my next destination. Suzuko: Is that that bird? Fubuki: Ah, / you saw it.
Suzuko: Ah, / If we’re ever troubled by a monster again, can we call you? // What’s your name..?
