Vertical text, left: Shikoku's next move is...?!
Tamazuki: You want to kill Rikuo?

Tamazuki: By which you mean you want to speed things up?
Tamazuki: Inugami.

Tamazuki: It's possible he's acting in place of the Supreme Commander
Tamazuki: But right now there's no need to kill him.

Tamazuki: I thought I'd decide whether or not to kill him as a final touch after all true power is in my grasp...
[Lit: as decoration]
Inugami: Tamazuki

Inugami: We do need to kill him.

-02-
Tamazuki: ......
Tamazuki: Like I said, Inu—
Inugami: Because!! Those guys are too cocky!!
Inugami: We've got to show them the undeniable "gap" between Nura Rikuo and Tamazuki.

Inugami: C'mon, Tamazuki
Inugami: I wanna be your fangs...

Tamazuki: Admittedly
Tamazuki: If I used you, he, together with his bodyguards, would be massacred in an instant, but...

Tamazuki: ......
Tamazuki: I don't want to see you go all out.
Tamazuki [small text]: You fight dirty

Text: Nice weather today~
Kappa: That's what I'm doing!

Kubinashi: Those Shikoku bastards have invaded our territory and gone after our leaders and the Supreme Commander.
Kubinashi: They'll probably go after the young master next... This is a mission to protect Rikuo-sama no matter what!!
Box: Instant messenging-enabled cell phone (touch screen model). The Nura Clan buys about a hundred replacements periodically (under corporate name)

Shimohira: The teacher's not gonna shut up about it... [small text] crap crap crap

Rikuo: Good morning, Shimohira-san!
Shimohira: Huh—
Shimohira: Nura-kun?!

Rikuo: You're on day shift today, right?
Rikuo: Here you go, I ended up doing the class record while I was working
Rikuo: Oh, but I'll have to leave cleaning the board to you, okay?
Rikuo: I've got a few other tasks to do~

Girl: ...What was all that about just now?
Shimohira: ...Nura Rikuo...
Shimohira: He's our class celebrity.

Girl: Celebrity?
Girl: He doesn't look like he stands out that much...?
Shimohira: I know, right? But... I guess he's always volunteering to do odd jobs and favours for everyone.
Girl: Doesn't that just make him a gofer?
Shimohira: No way!

Shimohira: He's a good guy, just like his name says!
[TN: The kanji in "Nura" can mean "guy" and "good"]
[this is the only note you really need to include ^^;]

Rikuo: Oh!
Rikuo: I cleaned the board too!

Girl: Whoa...

Rikuo: Mmhmm.
Yuki Onna: Rikuo-sama
Yuki: It's not really my place to say so, but...

Yuki: With the current danger of the Shikoku youkai invasion
Yuki: Isn't now precisely the time to come together with the Nura Clan and devise a plan?
Small text: Here you go

Yuki: This is dangerous.
Yuki: Can't you stop acting like a human and coming to school for now?
Rikuo: Tsurara, we've been over all this so many times before! [small text] and I AM a human...

-09-
Yuki: But...!
Yuki: Yesterday when we knew that Torii-san had been attacked, we had to consider everything going on around us---

Rikuo: That's exactly why
Rikuo: I've been living my life like this until now.

Rikuo: Tsurara...
Rikuo: Yuki Onna, are you afraid of the Shikoku youkai?
Yuki: Th-That's not it!!

Rikuo: Right , let's do our best all day long!
Yuki: ......
Text: I wonder if he's got an idea?

Yuki: Could it be... that because he's got his escort here
Yuki: He wants to use them in reverse to protect his school friends as well...?
Yuki: Maybe I'm overthinking it...

Kid: Hm...
Kid: Who's that?
Kid: A transfer student?!

Maki: Hmm... what's everyone crowding around for?

Maki: Ehhhhhhhh Yura-chaaaaan?!
Maki: What's with that outfit!!
Yura: Ah!

Yura: It's my old school uniform.
Maki: But why're you suddenly wearing it?!
Yura: My uniform got a bit torn up again, so I had to...

Torii: Really?
Maki: Interesting~
Maki: Lemme take a picture

Yura: This is a little embarrassing
Kid: Wow, what's she wearing? Cute!

Kid: Now you mention it, I saw someone wearing a different uniform earlier too!
Kid: He was pretty cool looking...
Kid: I wonder which class he's from?

-12-
Inu: Just like I thought, it got me noticed...
Inu: Good thing I changed halfway through the day

Inu: And that I hid anything weird too...

Inu: Nura Rikuo...
Inu: The grandson of Nurarihyon.
Inu: You commute to school too, don't you...

Inu: Isn't it painful for a youkai to be surrounded by humans?
Inu: You look like you're trying hard not to stand out, but...

Inu: Tamazuki was the complete opposite.
Inu: He's amazing.

-13-
Text: He was someone... who always stood out, even among humans.
Text: Bending them to his will with his power, even the humans supported him.

Inu: ......
Inu: Compared to him...
Inu: I...

Inu: You piss me off
Inu: Nura Rikuo...

Kids: Nuraaaa~ What'd you get?

Rikuo: What's wrong, Kana-chan?
Kana: N-Nothing!...
Kana: I'm kind of ashamed...

Shima: Whoa, nice job, Ienaga-san!
Shima: 36 points more than me!
Shima: And I got half as much as Rikuo...
Kana: Hey wait, Shima-kun!
Horizontal text: So, what was Kana-chan's score??

Inu: -pant-
Inu: -pant-
Text: He still tormented me...
[TN: I'm not sure who's doing what in this panel. I'm just assuming that he's talking about Tamazuki, because of the last line about being bitter towards him. Will change if necessary and/or when we know more.]

Yuki: Hm?
Yuki: He's peeking in at Master's classroom...

Yuki: Oh!
Yuki: I've seen him somewhere...
Yuki: Is he cutting class?

Yuki: Oh well!
Yuki: Next is the long-awaited
Yuki: Lunchtime!

Yuki: Of course I do!

Yuki: Rikuo-sama!! What would you like tomorrow?
Rikuo: Gratin.
Yuki: Is it all right if it's frozen?

Inu: ......
Inu: At lunch, he hangs out and eats... with his friends?

Kappa: What's that?!
Rikuo: Let's go, Tsurara!

Yuki: Yes sir!

Inu: Just skip it!
Inu: A pathetic event like that...

Inu: What're you doing, trying to get yourself in among humans...
Inu: You're a youkai, aren't you...?

Inu: They'll just leave you out...
Inu: Won't they...?

Yuki: ?!

Yuki: ......

-19-
Rikuo: We made it!~
Yuki: Um...
Yuki: Master...
