[p001]

Box: Physical education.
Student: Next is gym, huh~
Student: How dull...
Box: It is by far my worst class.

(beneath panel) A greater response than expected!!

Boy: Wanna run for a bit?
Box: I can play sports well enough.
運動はまぁ出来る方だ
Boy: Sure thing.

Box: I think I could probably even compete in the Olympics at any of them.
多分どの競技でもオリンビックに出られると思う
Box: Without any change of citizenship, of course.
もちろん国籍を変える事なく
(note: Japan doesn't allow dual citizenship)

(beneath panel) [The Disaster of Kusuo Saiki]

Box: But that's all the more reason.

(sfx) Heft
Box: What's most problematic

Box: is matching the level of ordinary people.
Students: I heard an incredible sound just now!!
Students: Wh...what happened here?!
Students: No way!! Did a meteorite hit it?!

???: Alright, for today's P.E. class...

Teacher: let's go with dodgeball!
Students: EHH?!

Boy: Playing dodgeball in high school...?
Boy: There's gotta be other options...
Teacher: There's no helping it. Baseball* and soccer** were done already,
(below panel) *refer to volume 0 | **refer to the Jump NEXT! 2010 summer issue

Teacher: and basketball, kendo and volleyball are already being played...
Students: By who?!
Box: Continuing in the same vein as last week's love manga, this time the subject is sports manga, huh.
Box: We're not even remotely consistent.
節操がない

Boy: But still, going with dodgeball...
Boy: Hey, don't complain!!

Boy: Sensei said we're playing dodgeball!!
Boy: Let's do it!! Give it everything we've got!!

Boy: Acting like kids is fine!! Let's regain the innocence of youth!!
Student: Hairo...
Hairo: Come, let's sweat it out together!!

[p004]

Hairo: How about it!!

Boy: Well...
Boy: if Hairo says all that, then... why not?
Boy: Heheh...
Boy: Yeah...
Boy: We've gotta get serious 'bout it!

Students: Hell yeaaah! Let's do this!!
Students: I'm kinda getting really motivated!!
Students: I ain't gonna lose!
Students: We haven't picked sides yet.
Box: Our class representative Hairo Kineshi.
Box: I can only think of him as a rowdy hot-blooded guy, but...

Box: he seems to have a fair amount of popularity.
Hairo: Okay!! Anyone who wants to be on my team, stand here!!
Boys: Ah! I do!
Boys: Me, me!
Teacher: Uh, we're deciding teams with rock and paper, so...

???: Alright, everyone's divided up...

Hairo: We'll definitely winnnn!!
Box:
Team Paper
Hairo Kineshi
Box:
Team Paper
Saiki Kusuo
Box: and more!!
Extras: YEAAAAH!!
Box: The random extras get treated way too cruelly.

[p005]

Box: Still, to end up on his team...
Boys: Huddle up, huddle!!
Box: Well... nothing I can do about it now.

Box: It's better than being on that team, anyway.
Taka: Tch. The same team as Nendou.
Shun: Kukuku... who'd have thought you and I would end up going at it...
Nendou: Ooh, so you're on that team, huh, partner?
Box:
Team Rock
Kaidou Shun
Box:
Team Rock
Nendou Riki
Box:
Team Rock
Takahashi
Box: and more!!
Box: No, Takahashi should go in that "and more" category, too.

Teacher: We'll start it with a jump ball.
Teacher: Here we go!!

Box: And thus...

Summary of last chapter
A person like the sun.

Hairo: UOOOOOH!!!
Box: the game commences!!
Boys: Alright, Hairo won the jump toss!!

Hairo: MUOOHH!!!

[p006]

Hairo: FUNNYAAA!!!

Taka: Ah!

Hairo: YESSSSS!!!
Boys: Alright!! First hit!!
Box: They're far too into this.

Box: They've only defeated one person, so what's with that reaction...
Boys: Yeah!! Yeaah!! YEAAAAH!!
Boys: We can do this!
Box: And on top of that, it was Takahashi, you know? They're far too into this...

Box: Also, it's way too early for you to be sweating like that.
Hairo: Okay! Let's stay on guard!
Boys: Right!!
Box: The heart of an athlete, huh.

Boy: Tch... Man, Takahashi's useless.
Box:

Boy: This time, it's our turn...!

[p007]

Students: We'll get you back for that attack just now!
Students: We'll definitely get you!!
Students: Yeah!!
Students: Right...

Boy: Alright!! Saiki!! We'll start with you!!
Boy: Here it comes!!
Box: Well! Going for me all of a sudden, huh.

Box: I'll just let it hit me, then.
当たっとくか

Box: Phew. With this, I guess I'm out.
Boy: Ooh... you okay?
Box: Sorry, but I have no intention of getting serious about P.E.

Box: After all, just one throw would be enough to reveal that I'm not an ordinary person.
Boys: Hell yeaah!! The score's tied!!
???: Hold on, Saiki-kun.

[p008]

Hairo: Did you purposefully get hit by the ball just now?
Box: !

Box: Oops... so it really did look forced after all...
Hairo: Am I right? ...Well, whatever.

Box: But if I go to the outfield, the ball will be all yours.
だが外野に行けばこっちのもんだ
Hairo: That aside, where're you going?
Hairo: You're not out, y'know.

Hairo: You're safe if it hits you in the head!
Teammates: Throw it, Saiki!
Other team: Dammit... I forgot!
Other team: We'll definitely catch it!!

Box: To think that such a rule existed...
Student: Show'em what you've got!
Box: And on top of that, it's my turn to throw... I'm done for...

Box: I am positively the worst at controlling the power of my tosses.

Box: And doing it here, where everyone can see...
Hairo: Saiki-kun! Throw it with everything you've got!!

Box: ...everything I've got?
Box: That's certainly easy for you to say, but...

[p009]

Box: Do you truly understand the meaning of those words?
Box: People will die, you know?

Box: If I throw at full power, a headshot wouldn't be safe at all, you know?
Box: It'd be out. The head, that is.
Box: Do you want to see what a real-life Anpa*man would look like?

Students: Hurry up and throw it, Saiki!
Box: Sheesh. I've got not choice but to throw it...
Box: Well, if I take it easy, there shouldn't be any deaths.

Nendou: Oh.
Box: For now, just to be sure...

Box: I'll aim at Nendou!
Hairo: Goooooo!!

Box: Ah.

Nendou: Oh?

[p010]

Box: That was far too weak...
Hairo: What are you dooooing!!!

Hairo: What were you trying to do with the ball just now?!
Hairo: This is a serious match, y'know!!
Hairo: Where's your motivation!!
Box: I know already, so calm down.

Nendou: Partner... I'm happy you feel that way, but...
Nendou: right now, we're enemies, y'know? Hehe... geez.
Hairo: You went easy on him because you're friends?!
Box: Give me the ball back and I'll show you just how wrong you are.

Hairo: Anyway, if you do that again next time, I won't forgive you!!
Hairo: That really makes my blood boil!!!
Box: Sheesh... that really made him upset.

Boy: Okay! Now it's our turn!! Go for it, Nendou!!
Nendou: Got it!

Nendou: Take that!!!
Boy: Urg!!!
Team: Uoooh!!

Team: You're good at this, Nendou!!
Nendou: Heh. They call me "Dodgeball Nen-chan".

Hairo: Kuh... what amazing power!!
Box: Come to think of it, that guy's only good at athletics.

Nendou: It's not over yet! Here gooooes...

Nendou: Doryaa!!!
Boy: Hurg!!

Nendou: Nyuhaa!!
Boy: Augh!!

Nendou: Shyaa!!
Boy: Ergh!!

Boys: Got it!

Nendou: Fiiire!!!

Student: He got both at once!!

Student: Uoooh!! He defeated 6 people in an instant!!
Boy: Kuh...

Student: Even if they're all random extras, that treatment is way too cruel!!

[p012]

Student: Team Paper's only got 2 guys left!!
Hairo: Damn...!!
Student: We'll definitely end this in a single page!!

Nendou: I'll leave partner for last, so...
Nendou: you're next, captain...!

Hairo: Bring it...!!
(Hairo): Will I really be able... to catch it...

Nendou: Here it coooomes!!
(Hairo): No...
(Hairo): It's not "will I be able to"...

(Hairo): I'll catch it!!!
Hairo: FUOOOOOH!

(Hairo): Yuasa...
(Hairo): Uno...
(Hairo): Zolbe...
(Hairo): Ukai...
(Hairo): For the sake of my fallen comrades, I'll...

(Hairo): catch it, even if it means my death!!!

[p013]

Students: Sa...

Students: Saiki?!
Box: Sorry, but I'll be leaving first.
Box: Being the last one left seems like it would be a pain.

Box: Sorry I couldn't give it my all, Hairo, but I there are circumstances to consider.
Box: I can't let my secret be exposed.

Hairo: Don't give up!!!

Hairo: No, we can definitely do this!!!

Box: Eh?
Students: Uoooh!!!

[p014]

Students: Uoooh!! Hey, look at that...
Students: Hairo... kept the ball from touching the ground!!

Students: Wait a sec... if there are no court boundaries, then that catch means...
Students: Saiki's safe!! That took some incredible guts!!
Box: You're kidding.

Students: You're incredible, Hairo!! For a guy like you
Students: to go so far to save Saiki is just amazing!!
Students: Huh? ...
Students: What the...?

Students: Oi, no way...
Students: Ahh!!

Students: H...he's injured!!
Hairo: Kuh...
Hairo: Ugh...
Students: He skinned his kneeee!!

Students: He won't be able to stay in the game like this... so...
Students: that means Saiki's the only one left, doesn't it!!
Box: You have to be kidding.

[p015]

Box: Hey... give me a break. You can still fight, can't you?
Hairo: Kuh... Saiki... it seems- cough...
Hairo: It seems this is it for me...
Box: Don't give up!
Box: That definitely wasn't enough of an injury to make you vomit blood.

Hairo: I'll entrust... this to you...
Hairo: The ball which carries with it the spirit of everyone's blood, sweat and tears...!!
Box: The blood's just yours, though.

Hairo: Saiki-kun, I know...
Hairo: that you've been holding back this entire time.
Hairo: Why is that? I want to see you give it your all...!!

Hairo: I'm counting on you, Saiki-kun... you're the only one left. Please, show all of us...
Boy: Hairo...

(left side) It seems this battle still has a little ways left to go...!!

Boy: Saiki!!

Boy: We're also counting on you!!

Students: Win it for us, Saikiiiiii!!
Students: If you lose, we'll never forgive you!!
Box: You have got to be kidding...
