A touching chapter!!!!!!! ~shirokuro

Chapter 15

P98

Dear God… Apparently, I am an unwanted person. // I am treated this poorly even in the local area I grew up in… // I’m going back to Midorigaoka Academy now. // Hayasaka-kun is nice so he’ll probably hang out with me. Takaomi-kun also hangs out with me despite his mean attitude.

P99

Mafuyu: I wonder if they will…?

--

Now that I think about it, Hayasaka-kun always looked pale when he was with me… // And I have no idea what Takaomi-kun is thinking most of the time…

--

Plus, those guys that I thought were my friends…

Kangawa: You’re not a part of this anymore.

Maizono: You’re an outsider.

--

Mafuyu: Aww…

--

Mafuyu: The sadness suddenly hit me like a tidal wave. // They're so mean… // So cruel…

--

Mafuyu: Screw them! I hope they lose! / They should lose and come crying to me!!

P100

Mafuyu: Yeah!! Whatever! I’m leaving! // They’re strangers to me! I have nothing to do with them anymore!

--

Mafuyu: But… Maybe they’re looking for me right now…

--

Kangawa: We were wrong. / We needed Mafuyu-san.

<sobbing> [Yeah, you’re right…]

--

Kangawa: Oh crap! I don’t know her number!! // Oh no! Let’s go find her!

Mafuyu: Maybe they’re in that kind of situation!!

P101

Mafuyu: I should go somewhere where they can find me right away! // Maybe in the shopping area!!

--

There isn’t a single person here…

Mafuyu: I’m an idiot for having gotten my hopes up for no reason…

--

I guess they all went to have their battle… // They’re probably strategizing their fight… // Aah! I’m so curious about it!!! // But I was told not to go!!

P102

I should decide with this… // If it lands right side up, I won’t go… // If it lands upside down, I’ll go!!

--

<right side up>

Aahh…

P103

Mafuyu: [That] was practice!! // The next one is the real thing!!

--

<right side up>

--

Mafuyu: You know what they say… Third time’s the charm… / The next one is the last one… Yeah… If it fails the next time, I’ll give it up…

--

Please God!! Help me!

--

Oh no…!! // It’s going to be right side up!!!

P104

YES!!

P105

Mafuyu: Did you see that?

--

Sakurada: You… / are too pathetic… [You’re abandoned, caught by police and now treated like you’re unwanted…]

P106

Mafuyu: What do I do…? // The enemy is being the nicest to me… [I’m about to go over to the Nishi High side…]

Sakurada: So the fact that you’re here now, / means our plans to keep you captured failed.

--

Mafuyu: Oh yeah! How dare you! / You cheater!!

Sakurada: It’s your own fault if you get caught! / Isn’t Higashi High in trouble if both their new leaders are fools?

--

Sakurada: But I bet… // Those two would have been able to get away with ease even without your help.

Mafuyu: Huh?

Sakurada: [Oh well.] The main point was just to scare them anyway.

Mafuyu: What? Wait a second. // It was actually pretty tough… [Getting away…]

Sakurada: Really?

P107

Sakurada: You shouldn’t cause so much trouble for your ex-group members… [You are the ex-leader, you know…]

Mafuyu: That’s not what I meant!!!

--

Mafuyu: Your group members made fun of your plans for always having holes in them too! [Stupid!]

Sakurada: What!? / Those holes are part of the whole plan! [Stupid idiot!] / Who the hell said that anyway!?

--

Mafuyu: Who…?

Guy: No. // You’re not the leader anymore. / You’re not even a part of their group anymore.

That’s how it is with delinquents.

Oh yeah, let me tell you something.

--

Sakurada: Hey… // I’m not going to seek this guy out and beat him up or anything. [You don’t have to think so hard about remembering him…]

Mafuyu: No… // It’s not that…

P108

Sakurada: Kurosaki…

--

Sakurada: You should leave. // If you’re not going to fight, / all you can do it watch your old buddies get hurt.

--

Sakurada: Isn’t that brutal? / I wouldn't want to see that. // I would want to protect them. // So…

P109

Mafuyu: Your buddies?

Sakurada: Yeah?

Mafuyu: You care about them?

Sakurada: Yeah…

--

Mafuyu: Even if your buddies don’t think of it that way?

--

Sakurada: Huh? / I don’t know what they’re thinking.

P110

Sakurada: But, // didn’t you guys all have fun when you were together?

--

You’re the only leader for us, Mafuyu-san.

--

Mafuyu: No! / I don’t wanna!

Guys: Knockout tournaments are the best way to settle things! // We’ll come along!!

--

Kangawa: You’re the leader? // How is it that you don’t know me? I’m Kangawa or Minami Junior High.

Mafuyu: [He’s creepy looking…]

--

Kangawa: [I’m joining Higashi starting today!]
Everyone: WHAT!?

--

Maizono: This guy is number 2 from now on.

Kangawa: Were you giving me your best shot!?

Maizono: Yeah, I was.

--

Kangawa: You eat a Taiyaki from the head!!

Maizono: [No!] From the tail! / How about you!?

Mafuyu: From the side.

--

Kangawa: [I changed my style! // I always wanted to do this!!]

--

Maizono: Please don’t ever injure your right hand.

P111

Guys: Mafuyu-san! If you add all of our scores, we equal 100!

--

Mafuyu-san! Maizono-senpai won’t let me tend to his wounds!!

Mafuyu: He’ll like it if you force it on him!!!

--

<Kita Saitama United>
Yay!

The fight for today was cancelled so we’re playing tag instead!

--

Mafuyu-san. // Mafuyu-san.

--

Mafuyu: Yeah. // They were crazy, // but it was fun.

P112

Mafuyu: I’m going too.

Sakurada: What? // You better not be…

Mafuyu: No, / I won’t fight.

--

Mafuyu: I want to see the new leader / and rest easy about it.

Yeah…

--

I’ll stop worrying about the little things… // And stop thinking about it to hard. // I was just unlucky.

Policeman: I caught you.

And that was inevitable.

Kangawa: This // is our battle.

P113

I’m probably really sad and lonely right now // because…

--

Sakurada: Hey, Higashi High. // I’ll applaud you for not backing out.

--

Kangawa: Don’t act like you’re on top yet, fools. / You guys are dirty cheaters.

P114

Sakurada: It’s normal to play it dirty in a fight!!

--

Mafuyu: Wow, ouch!! // Right!! // No, behind you!!

--

I didn’t know… // It would be this brutal when all you can do is watch… // I want to join in…

--

But I can see now // that they’ve gotten stronger.

P115

Or wait, were they always strong? // Did I just never realize it?

--

Nishi High is good at defense as usual. // They’re making sure no one gets too close to Sakurada.

--

Were they always this aggressive?

--

They used to be more…

--

Oh. // I get it.

P116

The way they fight differs depending on the leader… // So that’s why it’s different from before.

--

Okegawa-banchou was powerful by himself. // That’s why his followers were just backups.

--

Sakurada is loved by his followers. // So they all protect him.

--
And Kangawa is…

P117

A banchou that fights alongside everyone.

P118

I don’t know which method is the best way. // But this is probably how it works in the current Higashi High.

--

That’s why I’m no longer needed. // I think I get it now…

Higashi High wins!!

P119

[The train will soon arrive on track 2.]

--

Mafuyu: Yeah. // I’m going back on an earlier train.

--

Mom: Okay? It doesn’t matter but, you didn’t spend much time at home. [You just came for your things?]

Mafuyu: Oh / yeah…

Mom: When are you coming home again?

Mafuyu: Maybe around summer vacation?

--

Mom: Oh yeah, a strange group of people came by earlier.

Mafuyu: What?

--

Mafuyu: [Oh] I have to go. // Okay, bye.

--

Mafuyu: [Uhh my seat is…]

--

Station agent: [Stop!] You can’t do this!

??: Shut up! I’ll pay later!

P120

P121

Mafuyu: Wha? //Wait… [It closed!!]

--

Why!?

--

Why!?

Mafuyu: Why are you here!? // And what are you wearing!?

--

Kangawa: We had to come!! // We went to invite you to hang out, but you weren’t home!!

--

Guys: You didn’t plan this very well!! [It’s full of holes!] // It’s your fault, leader!! [Stupid!!!]

Kangawa: Shut up!!

Guys: It’s not fair!!

P122

Guys: We wanted to // see Mafuyu-san too!! // You’re not an outsider!! // We love you!! // No matter where you are // we’re…

P123

Guys: Friends!!

Letter: Dear Mafuyu-san, // Kangawa-san will probably never say this to you, so we’ll tell you secretly. // We didn’t contact you // or go see you // and said such cold things / to turn you away // was all // so that you wouldn’t get caught up in our fight.

P124

Mafuyu: So…

He acted like it wasn’t a big deal // so I wouldn’t worry? // That was an awkward // and stupid move // but, it was all for me…

P125

Mafuyu: I didn’t… // know that…

--

Mafuyu: Stupid… / Why didn’t they say anything…?

I don’t need that kind of kindness… // I wouldn't might getting caught up… // But, // that's what I love about you guys…

Letter: We’ve realized something since you’ve left. // Mafuyu-san…

P126

Letter: You were a banchou we all looked up to.

--

Takaomi: Hmm. / So they didn’t tell you their numbers / so they wouldn’t try to depend on you?

Mafuyu: They apparently decided that a while ago. [If they could reach me, they’d ask for help.]

--

Mafuyu: Oh yeah. // What were you doing on your day off?

--

Takaomi: Didn’t I tell you? // Student counceling.

--

Mafuyu: [Uh huh…?]

Hayasaka: Hey Kurosaki!!

P127

Hayasaka: Isn’t this about Saeki!?

Newspaper: A Teacher Helps in Rounding Up a Yakuza Member

The police of ○○ precinct arrested the a Yakuza member for extortion. According to our sources, students of a nearby high school were victims of the extortion and blackmail that had been going on for a while. When the police arrived the Yakuza member was already captured by the hands of a Midorigaoka Academy teacher (22), who had been conducting student counceling nearby. A witness claims that the teacher approached the Yakuza member by himself, after realizing that some students were in trouble.

Mafyu: What the hell happened!?
