5)
Chapter 1 - Tsubomi
yellow right: a young and fresh story!!!!
yellow left: The curtain rises on

6)
1: You call me all the way out here, of all places...
2: are you really serious about fighting me?
3: Of course we are!
4: Asakura Hana, Class 2-A at Shinra Academy...

7)
1: We're gonna crush you once and for all today

8)
1: and become the strongest gang in West Tokyo!

9)
1: I got no idea how a little pipsqueak like you can act so tough, but...
2: I'm gonna put an end to that.
3: Ichibara Ryuuji, Class 3-2 at Bansho High...
4: The second in a line of legendary thugs...Bokuto Ryuu!

10)
1: Are you guys retarded?
2(2b): I've never once acted tough! Who cares who wins stupid kid fights like this? If you really wanna be the "strongest"
3: then you've gotta up your game. Enough to become the god of the earth, at least.
4: Fuck you!
5: You little runt!!!

11)
1: They've left us no choice, Amidamaru.

12)
1: Go on, show 'em your power.
2-3: (Two lines of letters are cut off here. I can't figure out what he's trying to say. I could guess, though, if you don't have a better raw.)

13)
1: Gih...

14)
1: Owwww!
2: What are you doing, Tamao?!
3: Don't give me that. What are you doing home so late?
4: You broke the rules again
5: and used a spirit as a weapon in a fight, didn't you?
6: Uuuu

15)
1: Really, I didn't!
sign: Funbari Onsen
2: You lie.
3(3b): Have you forgotten how transparent you are to me? I was specifically told to take care of you, you know?
4(2b): You are the next in line of the distinguished Asakura shaman clan. You have a duty to protect this house for 500 years until the next Shaman Fight. Why are you wasting time with things like that?

16)
1: Using your spirit is "forbidden."
2(2b): If your power was revealed, we would be in big trouble...so if you do that again, I'll have to give you another taste of my extreme training. Understand?
3: Yes ma'am.

17)
1: I'm so sick of this shit!
sign: MY ROOM IS OFF LIMITS
2: 500 years is forever!
3: Why should I care about something that far away in the future?
4: And how coming using my spirit is forbidden?
5: Then why the hell am I a shaman, Amidamaru?
6: It's all for your own good, Master Hana.

18)
1: Mistress Tamao is just worried about you, Master Hana.
2: She did a number on you too, Amidamaru! What are you trying to act so cool for?
3(2b): ...heh. I'm your spirit, Master Hana, so our responsibilities are connected. Therefore, I follow your orders...even though I have no interest in those kind of fights.
4: Brandishing power like that breeds useless wars, and useless wars only become the seeds for more useless wars.

19)
1: Bite something and it'll bite you back.
2: Those were the words of your great father.
3: That's
4: exactly what I'm sick of.

20)
1: Must be nice to have all that experience you do.
2: With the Shaman Fight and stuff.
3: Oh no...!!
4: Same thing with my dad.
5: But that's why it doesn't matter what kind of philosophic shit you say to me, it doesn't matter.
6: I have nothing.

21)
1: Master Hana...
2: That day--
3: on that hill was the beginning of everything.
4: After waiting 600 years for a friend, a boy called a shaman, capable of tying this world with the next, appeared before me.
5: He asked for my help in the fight to decide the Shaman King, the god of this world.

22)
1: The friends we met...the days of battle when we merged our souls...the countless trials we faced...
2: As cruel and harsh as our journey was, I think our souls felt fuller than they ever had before.

23)
1: But Master Hana is--
2: It's your fault for bringing up his dad, Amidamaru.
3: He has a complex toward his dad.
4: He just happened to be born in the wrong age, that's all. There's no hope or dreams to be had in this time.
5: Saying things like that won't solve anything!

24)
1(3b): Oh, come on. Tamao isn't serious about forbidding him from fighting. You're his bodyguard in case anything happens, but that whole thing is just an act she's putting on. The most important thing for a Shaman is how well they can use their spirit, after all.
2: She's just telling him that when he fights, he needs to do it in secret.
3: Tamao understands full well the pain that Hana's in.
4(2b): And so do you, right? He's such a wild one that he's become a legend among all the thugs in West Tokyo.
5(2b): Although, it seems like he's only made more and more punks come out from the woodwork as a result. Gahaha!
6: I haven't gotten a single customer tonight...
7: This is no laughing matter, Tokagerou!

25)
1: Who are you badmouthing tonight?
2: Geh?! Tamao!
3: Welcome, Tamao! You look as beautiful as always! Is the inn closed for tnight?
4: Thank you, Yasu. Now, if only it helped me gather more customers.
5: This economic slump's wrecked the world, you know.
6: That god of ours has got one helluva mean streak.

26)
1: What are you doing here, Ryuu?! Did you finish preparing for tomorrow?!
2: Hey! I'm an important customer here too, aren't I, Yasu?!
3: Ufufu! Now, now, you too.
4(2b): I'll have a beer and devil's tongue, Yasu. And give me three beef fiber sticks.
5: OK!
6: I'll have a beer too, Yasu.
7: Who said I'm serving YOU?
8: Huh?
9: You wanna go, old man?! Let's go outside!
10: Bring it on!!
11: Ufufu. Those two are always so energetic.
12: Thank you very much for all your hard work today, Mistress Tamao. It's really tough for me to break old habits--
13: Forget about that, Amidamaru.

27)
1: More importantly...lately, I've been feeling a strange presence in this town.
2: I had Ponchi and Konchi check it out just to be sure, but Amidamaru, Tokagerou, you need to be careful too.
3: ...a strange...
4: presence...?

28)
1: The land of genesis,
2: Funbari Hill.

29)
1: Taking out this many thugs alone, in West Tokyo, of all places...
2: ...uuu
3: Guh...
4: I believe it's wise to assume that he's utilizing the power of that samurai.
5: Asakura Hana.
6(2b): The descendant of a hateful clan of legendary shaman and legendary spirits...but since our ancestor has become King now, we'll finally be able to close the curtain on a fake history fabricated from fiction.

30)
1: We are direct descendants of god...the royalty in our blood is thicker than any other.
2: It is we
3: who should be called the main Asakura line.

31)
1: Over Soul

32)
1: Tsukiyomi

33)
1: Time to cut the line
2: of the main Asakura clan.

34)
1: Ahhhhhh!
2: What the?! Who would do something like this?!
3: This was my favorite chair!
4: That's my gravestone, Master Hana.
5: Who cares about that?!
6: Dammit! It must have been one of those guys from yesterday! They broke my favorite chair to get revenge on me! I'm gonna kill 'em!!

35)
1: ...although, now that I take a closer look at that cut,
2: it was truly a masterful slash.
3: The cut face itself looks like a mirror.
4: Do you think there could have been a stonecutter in their midst?
5: That settles it! We're going to go interrogate every son of a stonecutter in this town, Amidamaru!
6(2b): ...forget about stonecutters, Master Hana, what about school? Mistress Tamao will really get angry at you if you disobey her two days in a row.
7(2b): Shut up! That's exactly why I have to skip!!! If I get serious and go to school I'll have lost!!!
8: Hey.

36)
1: Judging by your uniform, you're a student from Shinra Academy, aren't you?
2: I'm heading there as well, would you mind showing me the way?
3: Huh?
4: Who are you?
5: I'm busy right now, go away, for eyes.
6: ...four eyes...

37)
1(2b): ...fine then. Let me ask you something else instead.
2: Who are you talking to?
3: Oh no.
4: "Using your spirit is forbidden."

38)
1: If he finds out that I'm a Shaman, Tamao will kill me. What should I do? Say I was talking to myself? Then he'll think I'm a total weirdo!
2: But I don't know him, so who cares?
3: Shut up.
4: I was just talking to myself, four eyes.
5: Oh man, that sounded just like a Salaryman Senryu!
6: Huh?
7: My, what an interesting thing you're holding.

39)
1: What a coincidence.
2: I happen to have one quite similar to it.

40)
1: His name is Oboro Daikyou.
2: He's a wandering swordsman, a harbinger of misfortune.
3: Now, I wonder...between my swordsman and your samurai--

41)
1: Who's stronger?

42)
1: Master Hana!
2: Don't you dare stop me, Amidamaru!
3: ...awesome.
4: I don't know what's going on here, but he sure looks like a shaman to me.
5: And he was even nice enough to bring a samurai spirit with him.
6: ...in other words, HE'S the guy who broke my chair.
7: I can't possibly let him get away now.

43-44)
1: Now, finally
2: my days of boredom can end.
3: Hey...
4: Tell me your name.
5: Of course.
6: My name is--

45)
1: Hey, we've got trouble, Tamao!
2: What are you two so excited about?
3: Now isn't the time to be quiet!!!
4: We finally found out where that strange presence was coming from!
5: Their names are Asakura Ruka and Asakura Yohane!!!

46)
1: They're from the other Asakura clan that broke off in the Heian Period!
2: Direct descendants of Hao! From the hidden Asakura clan!!!
3: It can't be...
4: I mean, he died so long ago...!
5: And one of them's got in contact with Hana!!!
6: We have to hurry up and stop him!!!

47)
1: Otherwise, they
2: really might kill him!!!
white: Next issue, the hidden Asakura clan's evil hands spread out to many other places!! Their overwhelming power...may surprise even you!!
