Seika Gakuen Joshi Suikyuubu Monogatari 1

Hey there, thanks for looking at this Translation, which is more than likely needing a TL check BADLY. Some of the ones I was more confused by I added (?) by them, but I'm sure there are plenty of things I thought I translated correctly and ended up screwing up somehow.
If someone does decide to use this in a scanlation, please, please credit the TL checker as the main TL and me as something else (moral support?), I have no doubt that once this is checked most of it will be changed anyway :P. Raws can be found: http://mangahelpers.com/downloads/read-online/31311/1.

P.S. My skills aren't good enough to TL most of the panel titles :( sorry.

Mihoko: I didn't know...
この２年間何してたんだ？

pg 3

だから水球ってゆーのはプールでボールを使って
Mihoko: So as you said, Water polo needs a ball and a pool.
ボールを持ってない相手を沈めたりするとファールになって２０秒試合に出られないの
MihokO: If you sink an opponent without the ball, then it's a foul and you have to leave the match for 20 seconds
発祥はイギリスでプールの水深は２ｍ以上月刊情報誌も出てるんだよ
Mihoko: Water polo was created in Great Britain, and the depth of the pool can't be less than 2M, and theres even a monthly information magazine out!
あと吉川〇司 が昔やってて
Mihoko: All that's left now is Kikkawa *Bleep* (*Note: The Bleep is so they don't use an actual name in the manga*)
説明下手だな
Hikari: That was a terrible explanation.
ルールを教えるから市営の温水プール行こ
Mihoko: I'll teach you the rules on the way to the public heated pool
えーーーー
Hikari: Eh---
どうせなら温泉行こーぜ
Hikari: We might as well go to a hot spring
同じお湯ならそっちがいいよ
Hikari: It's still warm water, so it's okay
体も温まるし
Hikari: Our bodies would get warmed up and...　（？）
温泉で水球っていいじゃん
Hikari: Aren't hot springs and water polo good?（？）
温泉でやるのは卓球でしょ！
Mihoko: At a hot spring, you play ping pong!
そこ？
Hikari: Over there?

pg 4

じゃ行こ
Mihoko: Alright, let's go
メンドクセエなぁ
Hikari: How annoying (??)
気持ちいいね
Mihoko:This feels nice doesn't it?
うん
hikari: Yeah.
って　ここ温泉だっ！
Mihoko: Is what you say at the hotspring!
おまえすげーな
hikari: You're really amazing.

pg5

と　ゆーわけで市民プールに来ました
Mihoko: We came to the public pool　（？）
じゃあルール教えるね
Mihoko: Then, how about I tell you the rules?
その前に！
Hikari: Before that!
私泳げないから。。。
Hikari: Since I can't swim...
泳ぎ方を教えてくれ
Hikari: You'll have to teach me...
じゃあまず泳ぎ方を
Mihoko: Okay then, the first thing about swimming is...
水に入って手をこーザバーってやって。。。
Mihoko: You get in the water make your hand say “Splish Splash”(???????????)
そんで足を一緒にバタバタってやるの
Mihoko: And then make both your legs say "Batabata”　（Subsitute Batabata with any flapping or rattling sound)
いいところで息継ぎをして。。。あ　　バタ足には４ビートや６ビートがあって
Mihoko: You also need to take a breath at the right moment... oh to do the flutter kick you need 4 or 6 beats.
クロールってのは英語で「はいはい歩き」なんだって
Mihoko: “Yeah Yeah Walk” is what they call the crawl in english (?)
っていない！
Mihoko: Is not what they say (Would it be better as “You aren't listening!”? [It seems to fit context better])
(Small text above Hikari) Asahi – Teach me ---

pg6


魚みたいに泳げばいいんだよ
Asahi: If you swim like a fish, it's good.
そんなこと言われてもわかんねーょ
Hikari: Even if you say that, I don't get it.
こーだよ
Asahi: Like this (?)
だからわかんねって
Hikari: Like I said, I don't get it.
ーーもう
I give up already.
泳げなくてもいいや
Even if I can't swim, that's okay with me
と　とりあえずルールだけ教えるね
Mihoko: An-anyway, let me teach you the rules.
まずこのボールを使います
Mihoko: First we use this ball
その３人！
Lifeguard: You guys over there!
市民プールで
Lifeguard: At the community pool...
ボール使っちゃダメ！
Lifeguard: You aren't allowed to play with a ball

Mihoko:What should we do?
。。。さあ
Hikari: 。。。You know
温泉行こっか
Mihoko: Let's go to the Hot spring?
そーだな
Hikari: That's right.
（all three of them)あー
Ahhh
水球って気持ちいいね
Asahi: Water polo feels good, doesn't it.
これは水球じゃねーーっ！
Hikari + Mihoko: This isn't water polo!
それはそれとして気持ちいいね
Mihoko: This isn't so bad either
あ
