[Translator's headnote: most TNs are to annotate my floundering rather than explain anything]

Yotsubato! chapter 64

page 1:
[all this page, Yotsuba's syllables are widely spaced, as if sounding them out slowly -- thus the hyphens]
Yotsuba: at-last (ei yatto)
spin-spin-bam (kururun pon)

it-flip-ped-ov-er-clean-ly (kirei ni hikkurikaetta yo)

the-fluf-fy (fuwafuwa no)
pan-cakes-were-done (hottoke--ki ga yakemashita)
book cover: Little Sheep and Pancakes (kodomo hitsuji to hottoke--ki)
[TN: or if you want, make up a typical picture book name, like Lamb Chop or something]

page 2:
Yotsuba: ve-ry-ve-ry-de-li-ci-ous (tottemo tottemo oishisou)

[said normally]
Delicious. (oishisou)

I'M MAKING PANCAKES! (Yotsuba hottoke--ki tsukuru)
[TN: curse the colloquial dropping of particles - I'm assuming it should be ga and not ni after her name]

page 3:
top: Today is always the most enjoyable day. (itsudemo kyou ga, ichiban tanoshii hi.)
vertical text: Always a strange lunchtime (itsumo to chiga(small tsu)ranchitaimu)
[TN: That cannot be right -- I do not understand this idiomatic use of itsumo to]
big title: Yotsubato!
little title: chapter 64 Yotsuba and Pancakes (dai-64-wa Yotsuba to hottoke--ki)

page 4:
Yotsuba: We can make pancakes with this? (kore de hottoke--ki dekiru?)
Koiwai: We can ... yeah. (dekiru wa zo ... un)

Yotsuba: Even I can make 'em? (Yotsuba de mo tsukureru?)
Koiwai: It's just mixing and frying. (mazete yaku dake da kara naa)
The hard part is flipping them, right? (muzukashii no wa hikkuri kaesu toko kurai ka na)

Well, I guess you can. (ma dekiru daro)

page 5:
Koiwai: First, open this with the scissors. (mazu kore o hasemi de akeru)
Yotsuba: Right. (yoshi)

SFX: snip snip (chokki chokki)

Yotsuba: Ah. (a)
SFX: thud (basa)

Yotsuba: That's wrong. (chigau)
Don't do that. (shikatanai)
[TN: commonly this means "it can't be helped" but she's clearly disciplining the spill -- not sure how to handle that]

Koiwai: Now put it in. (nja sore o zenbu irete)

Yotsuna: Here? (koko?)
Koiwai: Ah! Not the frying pan -- the bowl! (a-- furaipan ja nakute bowaru!)

page 6:
Koiwai: Next is -- measure 100cc of milk? Can you read that? (tsugi wa gyuunyuu o 100cc wakaru ka? kaiteru daro?)
Yotsuba: Here. (koko)
Koiwai: There it is. Pour in the milk up to that point. (sou soko soko made gyuunyuu o ireru)

Yotsuba: Oh. (ou)
SFX: splash (pasha)

Yotsuba: Heavy (omoi)

Koiwai: After the milk is the egg. Add one egg. (gyuunyuu no tsugi wa tamago tamago 1-ko ireru)
Yotsuna: The egg! I'll do it! (tamago da! yoshi kita!)

SFX: whack (gasha)

page 7:
Yotsuba: Sticky (beto--)

Yotsuba: Next is -- (tsugi wa--)
[TN: As she wipes off her hand on her father's shirt lol ... ]
Koiwai: Next is -- (tsugi wa--)

Koiwai: Mix it with this. (kore de mazeru)

Yotsuba: What's this called? (kore wa nante yu-- mono)
Koiwai: This is ... a clatterer. (kore wa ... kashakasha da)
Yotsuba: A clatterer, eh? (kashakasha ka--)
[TN: kashikashi is the adverb for a clickety sound -- "clatterer" is the best I can think of]

Yotsuba: Hup! (yoisho)

page 8:
Yotsuba: Stiff ... Hard ... (katai ... muzukashii ... )
Heavy... (omoi...)
SFX: jerk jerk (gu gu)
Koiwai: Difficult, is it? (sou ga muzukashii ka-- ...)

Koiwai: Shall I do it? (ore ga yarou ka?)
Yotsuba: I'm doing it! (Yotsuba ga yaru no!)
Shut up, Daddy! (to--chan damettete!)
[TN: I don't think I've caught the right idiomatic meaning there ... ]

Koiwai: Okay okay. (hai hai)

page 9:
Yotsuba: DONE! (dekita!)
Koiwai: ... what have you done? ( ... omae kutta no?)
[TN: Unless he's seeing the smudges around her mouth and is asking did you eat any, using another meaning of kuu ... ]

Koiwai: Daddy will show you once how to fry it. (yaku no wa 1-kai to--chan ga tehon o miseru)
Yotsua: Thank you for your hard work today. (otsukaresamadeshita)
Koiwai: Don't say that. (iya sore chigau kara)

Koiwai: Pour it into the frying pan like this, (kore o kouyatta furaipan ni irete -- )
and wait a bit. (shibaraku mochima--su)

Yotsuba: It's making bubbles. (pokopoko shitekita)
Koiwai: That's right. When it starts bubbling, (sou pokopoko shitekitara --)
flip it over. (kore o hikkorikaesu)

page 10:
Koiwai: Over ... (se-- no)

There. (yo)
SFX: pok (pon)

Koiwai: Oh, that seems good. (o ii kanji)
Yotsuba: Ah!

Koiwai: Annnd done. (ja--n kansei----)
Well, anyhow, you can do it too. (maa nantoka Yotsuba ni mo dekisou da na)
Yotsuba: Just like in my book! (e hon to issho da!!)

Yotsuba: I'll make one too! (Yotsuba mo tsukuru!!)

page 11:

Yotsuba: Now! (ima da!)
[TN: is there a missing negative in there?]

Yotsuba: It's not getting round. (maruku naranai)
Koiwai: Try pouring in a little more. (mou chotto irete mi na)

Yotsuba: ... It didn't get rounder. (maruku naranakatta)

Yotsuba: When it starts bubbling, flip it over! (pokopoko shitekita kara hikkorikaesu!)
Koiwai: Okay, give it a try. (yoshi yatte mirru)
It's hard, though, so try your best. (muzukashii kedo gambare)

page 13:
SFX: squish (gushu)

SFX: squish (gushu)
squish (gushu)

Koiwai: From underneath! Scoop it from underneath! (shita kara! shita kara sukutte!)

page 14:
Koiwai: It turned into something like fried eggs ... (tamagoyaki-mitai ni natchatta na)

page 15:
Yotsuba: Failure! I'm doing it again! (shippai! mou ikkai yaru!)
[TN: idiom I'm not catching? maybe something like "do over!" or "that was practice!"?]
Koiwai: Okay, there's enough for one more, so cook that. (n mou 1-mai bun aru kara yake)

Yotsuba: How to do this ... (nanda ka na--)
It's strange ... (okashii na--)

SFX: SLAM (gataka)
Voice: Yo! Excuse the intrusion! (chiwa-- ojamashima--su)
[TN: "Curse you, Yanda!"]

page 16:
Yanda: Wha? (oryo?)

Yanda: What are you doing? (nani shita n'no?)
Yotsuba: Pancakes! (hottoke--ki!)
You could tell if you looked! (mireba wakeru desho!)

Yanda: Pancakes? (hottoke--ki!?)

Yanda: This is a pancake? Yotsuba made it? (kore hottoke--ki!? Yotsuba ga tsukutta no!?)
Bwa-ha-ha-ha! (ahahaha!)
[TN: if possible, typeset using a cackling font]
Even looking I couldn't tell! (mite mo wakkan'ne-- yo!)

page 17:
Yotsuba: That was a test! (sore wa tameshita!)
I'm doing it for reals this time! (kondo chanto suru no!)
Yanda: Eh? (hee---)

Yanda: Weird shape. (hen na karada)

Yotsuba: It's bubbling. (pokopoko shita)

page 18:
Yanda: Bwa-ha-ha-ha-ha! (ahahahaha!)
You're hopeless! (hetakuso--)

page 19:
Yotsuba: Waaaa! (uaaaa)
Yanda: Ah! (a)

Yanda: Um ... (iya ...)
It's -- (maa)
Don't feel bad. (ki ni sun'na yo)
[TN: I'm guessing here]

Yotsuba: Waaaa! (aaaa)
SFX: bat (poi)

page 20:
Koiwai: She's sulking (suweta)
Yanda: That's a sulk? (kore wa suweta n'no?)

page 21:
Koiwai: Yotsuba, one more time. (Yostuba mou 1-kai da)

page 22:
Koiwai: I made another batch of pancake mix. (hottoke--ki no moto o ippai tsukutta)
You can cook a bunch more. (madamada yakeru)
Yanda: How many does this make? (kore nan-mai bun?)

Yotsuba: But (konna ni)
Jeeze (mo---)
But if I make all this, they won't all fit in my stomach! (konna ni ippai tsukute mo onaka ippai de tebareranai desho!!)

Koiwai: I can eat them!

page 23:
Koiwai: I'm really (tou-chan honto wa)
Pancake Loving Man! (hottoke--ki daisuki man da!)

Yotsuba: This guy's a rival! (otarashii yatsu da!)

Yotsuba: I'll make 'em! (jaa tsukuru!)

page 24:
Koiwai: This time around, try to pour only in the center of the frying pan. (mawasanakute ii furaipan no man'naka dake ni otoshite miru)

Yotsuba: It got round. (maruku natta)

Yotsuba: It's round! (maruku natta--)

page 25:
Koiwai: Slide it underneath ... (shita kara sashikonde--)
More. A little further. (gu----tto motto motto)

Koiwai: Right -- lift it up. (yoshi mochi-ageru)
There, there. (so-- so--)

Koiwai: And flip it over. (sorede hikkuri-kaese)
Yotsuba: Over. (se)
Over? (se-- no)

Voice: No, just your body's tilting. (karada shika katamuite nai zo)

Voice: Make up your mind. (omoikitte ike)
Yotsuba: Right -- one, two, and (yo----shi ichi ni no)

page 26:
Yotsuba: HA! (ha-----!)
SFX: SPLAT (pashan)

Yanda(?): Ehhhhhh? (e--------!?)
Yanda: Why'd you attack it like that? (nanda tataki tsukeru 'nda yo!)
[TN: ??? can tataki-tsukeru mean to throw, or something like that?]

Yotsuba: My aim's a little ... (chotto nerai ga...)
Yanda: Because that's not how to make pancakes. (hantoke--ki 'tte sou iu 'n ja nai kara)
[TN: totally guessing here]

page 27:
Yotsuba: I'll get it right this time (kondo wa chanto)

Yotsuba: over ... (se--- no)

Yotsuba: Close! (oshii!)
Yanda: Why are you attacking them!? (nanda tataki tsuke n'no!?)
[TN: ??? as above]

page 28:
Koiwai: It's because you lifted it a little early. (mochi-ageru no chotto hayakatta kara)
Hold on a little longer, and it'll be firmer and easier to flip. (sou sukoshi motta-hou ga katakunatte hikkuri-kaeshi yasui daro)
And do it little more gently. (ato motto sotto na)

Yotsuba: The underside's all dark. (ushiro mokkuro da)
Koiwai: Ah, it was there too long. (a-- mochi sugita ka)
Yanda: This time you did it too late. (ima no wa yakkuri-kaeshi sugida)

Yanda: Yotsuba doesn't know the meaning of moderation. (Yotsuba wa tekido'tte mono o shira n'na)
Yotsuba: "Moderation"? (tekido?)

Yotsuba: I'll succeed this time. (mou tsugi seikou saseru)
'Cause I've had enough. (akitekita kara)

Koiwai: The shape is terrible but it tastes good enough. (katachi wa hidoi kedo kekkou umai na)
Yanda: Terrible? I'll say. (hidoi to ka iu na yo)
Enough to sulk over. (ma na suneru zo)

Yotsuba: Terrible, right? (hidoi na---!)
Ah-ha-ha-ha (ahahaha)
Yanda: You're good with that? (a ii no?)
You're the one who made 'em. (omae ga tsukutta n'da yo)

page 34:
Koiwai: Hey Yanda, eat some more. (hora Yanda motto kue yo)
Yanda: I'm eating! I've eaten so much! (kutteru yo! SUGEE kutteru)
Didn't you say you were going to eat them all? (daitai anta ga zenbu kuu 'tte ittaru?)

Koiwai: It's too much to eat -- I've gotten headache. (nanka kui-sugite atama itakunatta kitesa)
Yanda: I KNOW! (shira ne-- yo!)
