Guide to this trans, shrimpy style:
-means new bubble in the panel
space between means new panel.

148:
-You just don't know when to give up, do ya!

-You worried about him?
-Well, relax. He'll be following you soon enough.

-This is the end.

-Bye bye! <3
-Kakeru...!!

-Case 17: Progress

149:
-Ayano!!

-Kakeru...?
-Why are you here...?

150:
-Goddammit, don't make us worry like that.
-Huh...?

-What are you doing passed out here?

-No way...I'm...alive?
-I thought he killed me...

-Ayano,

-Let's go home.

151:
-One last time!
-This is the Greenhouse.

-Last week, some information was leaked to us.
-This is the main headquarters and laboratory of the group we've been tracking.

-They've been kidnapping children and performing experiments on them here.
-We won't let them continue with this.

-We'll be infiltrating the Greenhouse and wiping the bastards out!!

-GO!!

-Don't let a single rat escape alive!!

-Let's teach them a lesson...

-Let them know that creating Psychics is a crime against humanity!!

152:

-W-What's with all that commotion!?
-It seems...we're under attack by some mystery assailant...

-It could be the Crimers...
-Those Crisis Management idiots...!?
Text: Dogs of the government!
-It's happening sooner than Ikushima's report said it would!

-Where's Ikushima!? Someone go get him!
-I'm already here.

-Ikushima!!

153:
-What is the meaning of this!? According to your report, this isn't supposed to be happening yet...!
-That's right...

-I do remember telling you that earlier.

-So this means-
-Huh?

-The "future" must have changed, right?

154:
-Fufufu...

-It seems like you're showing no mercy as always.
-You never know, we could've found a use for them later.

155:
-Todoroki, huh...

-You're late as usual.
-Hey, take it easy.

-I was busy kicking ass up on the floor above, since I rarely get to wake up and get some exercise.
-It was pretty fun. And it's all thanks to you, for leaking the info to those Crimer guys.

-It wouldn't hurt for you to restrain yourself-

-I know.

156:
U..Urrgh....
-Ikushimaa...

-You traitorous bastard...
-You'll....never get away with this...

-Arrgh!

-I'm...a traitor?

-Did you think that I didn't know anything?
-I knew everything.

157:
-I know the real reason why...
the Greenhouse was built and the Frontier Committee was founded 10 years ago-
-Gurrgh!?

-It wasn't to create the most powerful psychics in existence, like you claimed...

-Arrgh...

-Nor was it to use those Psychics to control the world...

-Ar..ggh...hhh...

158:
-It was built for Kakeru Hase...

-It was created simply to raise Psychics powerful enough to protect the "Category 0."

159:
-It seems like all I want to do is simply watch.

-Watch the end of this false reality and
-the "real future" which should be created.

160:
-Shouldn't you be happy? You're only here for 2 days.
-I'm not happy at all!

-Don't say that. You still need rest to recover your strength.
-You're right...
I still feel kinda weird. I'm not ready to leave yet...

-Well, we'll come again later. Take care!
-Hey, waaiit!

-I wonder...
-Could Shaoron perhaps fix me up...?

-That way I could leave the hospital and I won't be bothering anyone...
-Good idea. Whatcha think, Shaoron?

-No, Shaoron won't be able to help with this.
-Joui?

-We'll be fine. Just get some rest and don't worry about us.
-O-okay...

161:
-Well then, explain yourself Kakeru...
-you too, Takemaru.

-What on earth happened here?

-About 3 hours ago... I saw the future.
-It was... a very sad future.

162:
-Ayano and Mamidori...
were dead in that future.

-But when I came here, both of them were alive and well...
-What does that mean...?

-Tell me, Kakeru.
-What the hell did you do?

-I...

-just...

163:
-What if he had the power....
to change time itself?

-What...!?

-It's the only explanation.
-It has to be it.

-Kakeru would attack empty air, and Kiryuu would be drawn to his attack, almost like a magnet.
-It wasn't either psychokinesis or teleportation.

-And the way he defeated Kiryuu at the end...
-It was like he hit him, rewound...and then hit him again.

-I got that impression too...

164:
-It's like how an Editor of a movie rewinds recorded film, then cuts and pastes in new images to change the "result".
-Ayano's current condition is caused by the gap between her mind and body, after being "rewound."
-It's like 'jet-lag', except this is 'time-lag'!

-The ability to turn back time and change the past...

-w-well...isn't it a useful ability to have?
-I mean, I could go back and watch the TV show's I've missed!

-Or it could be useful when shopping with Shaoron...
-When we've just missed a good sale?

-Even the time's when I'm late to school too-

-Kakeru!! You can't use your ability for petty things like that!
-Joui...?

165:
-W...Why...?
-Think about it.

-When you use your ability...
-You don't just change the past, you change the lives of everyone, even the world itself... that's what you're capable of!
-But...

-Also, the more you use it, the greater the time distortions become.
-Don't you see?

-You're taking the "world's" film and pasting in different scenarios...
-It's impossible to avoid creating contradictions.

166:
-In reality, Ayano and Midori-san are dead,
-aren't they?

-You...
-You might be right but...

-I was in a complete panic at the time.
-Besides, how could my power possibly bring the dead back to life?

-They...must have been still alive.
-They must have...

-I'm sorry. I spoke a little too harshly.

167:
-Don't get me wrong.
-I'm glad you were there.

-If it was me or Kaito instead, we might have beaten Kiryuu, but we wouldn't have been able to save our friends.
-Thanks.

-Yeah...

-I always thought I had no powers.
-I couldn't see the future like Joui, fight like Kaito or heal like Shaoron.

-I always hoped that one day I could do something.
-Even if it was only something small.

168:
-And I did.
-I saved Ayano.

-Hm?

-Kakeru, what did you just say?
-Uh...no...it was nothing...!

-Ow!
-I'm bleeding!
-Here, Kakeru, give me your finger.

[Tn: ...Ayano's a twilight fan? o_O

-Huh?

-What's wrong?

-Ah!
-Um...ah...

169:

-A...
-Ayano!!

-Wh..What..!?

-Ayano...there's...
-something I want to tell you...
-Y...yeah...?

-You see...

-Yeah...?

-Um...how do I say it...

-Truthfully...
-I just want to-

170:
-Kaakeeruu-kuun!
-Waah!?

-Ma..Mamidori-san!?
-Did you come visit me again!?

-Oh, yeah.
-They're sharing a room.

-N-No...
actually, that's not it...
-Awww, you're so cold towards me, Kakeru-kun!
Text: after what we did together...

-That was my first kiss, after all.
Text: Even if it wasn't on the lips
-Aack! Ma-

-Shhh-!!
Box: Only showing her real form to Kakeru.
-I'll kill you if you tell anyone.
-Un...Understood!

171:
-Man, I'm thirsty. I need some tea-

-Huh?
-No hot water...

-Oh, well. I'll go and get some, okay?

-Kakeru's acting weird...

-Yeah...speaking of weird, I had a pretty weird dream.
-A weird dream?

-In it...I...
-Died.

-Huh...
-In the dream, that is.

172:
-And when I was about to die-

-Eh...?

-Kakeru-kun saved me.

-I...
-also...dreamed that...

-Really!?
-Yeah...
-I died...it was so cold and dark...but then, it got a little warmer...

-The next thing I knew, Kakeru was there, in front of my eyes.
-Isn't it strange? It's just a dream though.

-I...
-don't really think it was a dream...
-Huh?

173:
-I think that Kakeru really saved me.

-You see, I believe in him!

174:
-I guess so, knowing that jerk...

-Jerk...?
-Er, I mean Kakeru-kun!

-Hey, Sayaka-chan,
-Yeah?

-Damm it...
-Why do I act like that around him...

-You said you loved Kakeru before, right?
-Huh!? Uh...Yeah!

175:
-I know...I'm kinda naive about this stuff...
-And I don't know what it means to fall in love...

-But you know...I think I'm starting to understand.

-I've noticed myself looking at Kakeru a lot.

-I get angry when he talks to other girls.

-And most of all, I get nervous and excited when I talk to him...

176:
-That's why I think I love Kakeru too.

-And I know...
-My feelings are no less that what you feel, Sayaka-chan.

177:
-Ha...haha...
Text: Huh...?
-It was supposed to be a stupid act...so why do I feel that about him...
-I...see...

-W-Well then...
If he feels the same, are you going to go out with him?
-Huh...?
Go...out?

-What's..."going out"?
-Huh!?

-It can't be...you don't know...?
-Yep...what do you mean by "going out"?

-Haha...

178:
-Well then, I'll show you. <3
-Huh...?

-Ah...

-Wha..
-you're...kidding...?
-No..way!?

-Whaaaaaat!?
-This is how you "go out" with someone!?

-Not just this, you also do more !*%&!@%!#....
-No!
-Not just that...
-You're lying!?

-179
-Idiotidiotidiot...
I'm so stupid...
-Why do I always screw up in important moments...

-Goddammit...
-It's enough to make a guy hate himself...

-Still,
-even just awhile ago I would never have dreamed I could be like this.

-After all...thanks to everyone, I've changed a bit.
-And I decided.

-"I want to protect Ayano"
-I wanted to see her smile.

180:
-I love Ayano.

-That's why...
I gotta-!!

-Ayano!
-Please go out with me!!

-181:
-NO FRIGGIN' WAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!

-How cruuuuuuuuel-!!!

Bottom: Continues in Volume 5.


*Gasps*
Volume 4 done? Already? Phew! \o/
I hope you've all enjoyed reading this series as much as I've enjoyed translating it. ^^

Haha, poor Kakeru. He's so unlucky, asking Ayano out after Maya got her claws into her. >.<

Now, onto a nice rest before volume 5... (-_-)zzz
