page 1

b1) Ah,
b2) It's Kuji-nee!
panel1) Medaka and Kujira, the sisters meet again.
panel2) They look alike! Except for the eyes, they're practically identical! // When they stand next to each other like this, there's no mistaking it!
b3) Medaka-san, please be careful! // She's erased her own memories!
b4) Maguro-san was done in by her!!
b5) She's no longer the Kurokami Kujira you know! // She's now Naze Youka of the 13 party!
b6) Says my beloved friend.
b7) Is that true, onee-sama?

page 2

b1) Yes, that's the truth. // My memories of the past, that were nothing more than excess baggage, were all removed.
b2) That's why I'm no longer your older sister, // and you're no longer my younger sister.
b3) I'm your enemy.
panel) Their reunion was totally abnormal!
b4) And you're my enemy!
title) But the you of the past.

page 3

b1) Sorry to inform you, onee-sama
b2) But you wont confuse me by saying that // you're no longer my sister but an enemy.

page 4

panel1) No mercy!!
b1) I see there are some who are still hard on their family.
b2) 'Love your enemy', given Medaka-chan's personality, // you can even say it backwards, as 'Even if you like them, they're an enemy'.
b3) Even though it's her actual sister, you don't need to worry about if she'll fight or not. // However...
panel2) The injuries she got from her fight with Takachiho-kun are all cured. // In fact, it's like her recovery abilities have skyrocketed. // With how I am now, I can't really say, // but she's even more godly now than when she finished my training! // She's even better than when she was in her golden days!
panel3) Just how much of a beast is my little sister!?
b4) Judging from what I see, // this is the reason my brother is writhing on the floor over there.
b5) Well, with how he acts, he probably tried to perversely hug Kuji-nee, and this was used as a counterattack...
panel4) Whoa, wrong and right at the same time!
b6) Onee-sama, please tell me,
b7) What kind of poison is this?
b8) Poison? // No, you're totally wrong there.
b9) It's medicine.

page 5

b1) It's the 'normalize liquid'.
b2) It's a special type of medicine that sees our abnormal abilities as a disease. // Put bluntly, it's an abnormal killing vaccine.
b3) This is actually that brother over there came up with.
b4) Well, it's because of the FLASK plan that it came about.
b5) However, normalizing an abnormal is the opposite of what the FLASK plan is trying to accomplish,
b6) so the research was halted as soon as this was made.
b7) Are you trying to say that you continued this experiment that even the chairman said to bury?
b8) Onee-sama?
b9) That's right. // However, it seemed to only be at the draft stages.
b0) But since it was like reconstructing a body from the ground up, // the side effect of overwhelming pain couldn't be removed.

page 6

b1) Well, it's not like I had ANY intention to remove the pain! // You know the old saying, no pain, no gain!
b2) Isn't that right, Koga-chan!
b3) Yeah, that's right...
panel1) If that's the case... // Then isn't the FLASK plan a lot further ahead than any of us realize?
panel2) Think about it, if there are 1,000 abnormals, then that means there are 1,000 differnt types of abnormalities. // And we normally just lump them all together as "I can't explain it". // And here we have people who are trying to make becoming 'abnormal' a medical procedure...
b4) I bet the former supervisor is quite happy. Whether he loses his abilities, or dies from shock,
b5) he's testing out his own experiment on himself.
b6,7) haa

page 7

b1) Of course, I'm happy too! // Although I don't remember it, he's my blood brother, and I just made a guinea pig out of him!
b2) This is what you call stoic! This is what you call heroic! There's nothing more abnormal than this!
b3) That's the first time she's smiled...
b4) and I'd prefer that she didn't do so again!
b5) "Something amazing can only be made after seeing hell", and "because you're miserable, you do the unexpected".
b6) These were your catch phrases. // And I looked up to you for that.
b7) You rejected the happiness that anyone else would've accepted with open arms, and threw yourself into your experiments. // I loved you for having a clear goal and putting yourself through the pains to achieve it.
b8) Although it looks like you've lost your memories, it feels like I'm reuniting with my same beloved sister. // I was truly happy for that.

page 8

b1) However, the you from the past,
b2) would never make those around you unhappy too!
b3) Hand over the antidote right now, // if you don't, I'll have to go all out on you.
b4) Don't act like you don't have it either, // any scientist would make an antidote for their works.
b5) Especially considering THAT'S the real objective of the FLASK plan.
b6) ...well, you're right. // I do have one.
b7) That was well thought out, blood sister of mine.
panel) It's not an antidote though.
b8) However, do you really think I would say "Sure, here it is!"? // This is an experiment for me.
b9) If you take the place of your brother over there, then that's a different story.

page 9

b1) Fine then,
b2) I'll become your guinea pig for this experiment.
b3) Hmm, I see... // this really does
b4) hurt.

page 10

panel1) What's with this girl? Here I thought she was angry at me, and now this? Is she an idiot beyond all help?
b1) Well, // with the brother as a first class sicko, and the sister as a fool,
b2) I guess I was in a somewhat unhappy environment.
b3) Koga-chan, // break these guys legs and arms, and carry them to another lab.
b4) I want to see exactly how extensive the effects of the liquid are.
b5) ...Break their arms and legs?
b6) But, // aren't they your family?
b7) Seems like it. // And it's fine that way.
b8) It holds more meaning to me using family as guinea pigs.

page 11

b1) Naze-san, are you going back on your word!?
b2) You said you'd give us the antidote if Medaka-san became the guinea pig in place of Maguro-san!!
b3) My word? // Like hell I'd keep what I said.
panel1) And it's not like I ever said I would.
b4) There's no down side to having multiple samples, you know.
b5) ugh...
panel2) This is bad! // There's no way I can get out of this by myself. // It was a mistake to let her out of that pin move!
panel3) Besides, holding a pin move also tires out the person doing it! // I don't think I'll be able to use that move again. // And even if I did, Naze-san wouldn't listen to anything I say anyway...
panel4) If that's the case, then I'll need to convince her partner
b6) KOGA-SAN!
b7) YOU SAID YOU WERE NAZE-SAN'S FRIEND, // ISN'T THAT RIGHT?
b8) IF THAT'S THE CASE, THEN STOP HER RAMPAGE!
b9) ...her friend?
b0) Well, it's true I am.

page 12

b1) However, a friend // did you know that a friend,
b2) is there through thick and thin?
b3) Truth be told, I don't like doing this,
b4) but I'm still Naze-chan's friend.
panel1) ...That went well. // Medaka-san and Unzen-kun were also the same. Since they were isolated a lot, they never betray someone they call a friend.
panel2) I didn't think a former normal would be the same!

page 13

b1) WHA!?
b2) Kurokami!?
3b) Normalize Liquid. // It's effect was immediate. I guess I should expect nothing less from something my brother and sister collaborated on .
b4) My body feels as heavy as lead, and my mind isn't working like it normally does.
b5) You should be happy, onee-sama
b6-8) haa
b9) Your experiment is a success!
b0) It doesn't look like a success to me.
b1) You're moving like normal.
b2) That's right,
b3) I can move NORMALLY.

page 14

b1) And normal is more than enough!
b2) If an abnormal loses it's abnormal conditions, // that person will become normal!!
b3) Sorry to inform you, my brother and I are built differently. // With him, once you get passed his abnormality, all you have is a sicko.
b4,5,7) haa
b6) Even if I lose my abnormality, it doesn't hurt or even itch! -small print- it does hurt though...

page 15

panel1) Although she was tired from battling it out with Kouki-kun, // it's absurd how easily she handled Koga-chan after she lost her abnormality.
panel2) She said "my brother and I are built differently", but a person's abnormality isn't something they trained for, they were born with it. // What's really getting me, is that she had the nerve to move for the sole purpose of covering for her friend that was in a pinch.
b1-3) haa
panel3) ...Can I really call that nerve? It's more like her way of doing things, right? // She went mouthing off on how she was born for the sake of others...
b4) Your little 'Medaka box' is meant to solve people's problems, right? // I bet you came down here to solve all of our problems, right?
b5) ha ha
b6) Can siblings really be THIS different?
panel4) If that's the case, then how about I experiment on her way of living.
b7) Okay blood sister, I'm throwing in the towel.
b8) I admit my loss. // We've lost, I'm sorry.
b9) Here's the antidote. // I'm giving enough for both of you, so please forgive me.

page 16

b1) Medaka-san! Do NOT accept that! // No abnormal up to now has ever admitted their loss!
b2) In all likelyhood, that's not the antidote, but another type of drug!!
b3) ...That's your beloved friend's input on this situation,
b4) What are you going to do? // Are you going to doubt me?
b5) I'll believe you!!
b6) Med... Medaka-san! What do you think you're doing!? Everything she's done to you has been deceitful!
b7) You're always like that! Why do you always take what people say at face value? // How many times are you going to be deceived before you learn?
b8) Secretary Kouki,
b9) it's not like I don't get where you're coming from saying that, but...

page 17

b1) Even if I were to be deceived a billion times by a billion different people,
b2) I would never doubt someone I like.
b3) Medaka-san...
b4) You're such a...
b5) Naze-san! Did you hear all that just now? She knew she was being tricked, and still believed in you!
b6) Even though you've lost your memories, don't you feel anything from tricking a person like her?
b7) Truthfully? No, not at all.
b8) Well, I guess you could say I'm glad it went well. // Because I did all that knowing that she would simply walk into the trap I laid for her.

page 18

b1) "I won't doubt someone even if I know I'm being fooled"?
b2) That's downright foolishness!
panel) Medaka-san's feelings didn't reach her at all! // She's at a total loss!
-actually, there are more ppl like naze in this world. If you know someone is going 2 b fooled, then fool them!-
b3) Kujira-chan, what was in that syringe? // It's something...
b4) that I didn't recognize.
b5) If you don't know, why don't you use your superior analytical skills to determine...
b6) Oh, that's right. // You can't do so right now.
b7) Then I'll be a good little sport and tell you what it is. // Don't worry, it's not something outstanding like the last one.
b8) It really is your run of the mill medicine.
b9) MEDAKA-SAN, ARE YOU ALRIGHT?
b0) Yeah, // I'm fine. No need to shout.

page 19

b1) But can you tell me, where am I? // Who am I?
b2) And why was I born?
b3) However, this medicine has a little Naze-touch to it! // Memory be gone!
b4) It's the same thing I used on myself 6 years ago!
b5) I've removed your abnormality, and your reason for being!
b6) Exactly what do you have left now, Kurokami Medaka!?
left of panel) Amnesia!!
