Double Arts 5

Kiri's power is obvious, it's because he's a keyblade master! Why does the comic act like it's so complicated?

EDIT - PAGE 4 ADDED. IS IT DONE?!

01
-Your ex...?

-...that means...
-You two were going steady...
-in the past?

bold vertical: Does this mark the start of some crooked love triangle!?
-Yep! You got it!
-HOLDONJUSTAMINUTE!
lower right: Chapter 5 - "Special" / Komi Naoshi

-You mean DATING, right?
-Please don't say strange stuff like that. After all, no one can ever tell how many guys she's seeing at once
-Hey!
-Stop making me look bad! I'm not that loose!

-...then how many are you on now?
-ah? um...

-....10...?
-DOUBLE DIGITS!?

02
-Besides,
-Her sense of romance is totally off

-Quit prancing around and saying you like everybody!
-Especially when you don't really like 'em in the first place
-It's only a matter of time before every young guy in Turm is your ex!
-What are you talking about? Confessing is the best part!
-But I can't help it that no one lives up to my standards

-How many times did we go out? 3?
-T-three times?

-She confessed three times
-And dumped me three times
-Poor Kiri-san!!
no bubble txt: Was happy, then broken hearted
(t/n - i wasn't entirely sure, but i'm thinking he means three separate occasions, like getting back together if that makes sense)

-Ah! Oh yeah!
-Could you continue what you were saying earlier?

-Sui-san! I was extremely surprised during the fight...even though you're not that much older than me,
-You're incredibly strong!

03
-Well,
-I am a Nagin after all
-So it's a given I'm strong

-Nagin
(t/n - kanji is lit. "warrior peoples")

-All the people of our world belong to four major races
-Out of them all, the one with the largest population, and the one known for their valor and physical strength,
-Would be the "Nagin"

-For centuries this warrior race has used their military prowess to subjugate the land
-Even though wars have ceased, their descendants still continue to live throughout our world
-But Sui is special because...

-...I'm special because I'm a "Clear Nagin" (t/n - kanji is lit. pure-blooded)
-I'm sure you know
-how rare we are these days

-I want to get even stronger!
-A Nagin that can't fight is nothing but trash!

04
-I was thinking about hightailing it outta here, too
-If I stayed in this town any longer my talent would go to waste
-There's no one left to fight, after all
-It'd be bad for my health

-no one to fight?
-yeah

-About 3 years ago
-She decided one day that she could work by fighting
-So she challenged all the guys in the city, eventually taking on each and every one

-First were the guys in her age group,
-Then came adults about one or two sizes larger than her
-She'd sometimes even bet on the match
-There were mercenaries and soldiers...
-And she eventually took on entire groups of people

-The result?

05
-She never lost--
-Regardless of the opponent, not even once!
-The number of people she's defeated is easily over a thousand

-Eventually, she even lost interest in
-traveling swordsmen and mercenaries since they weren't good enough

-Well, probably the only man she challenged and hasn't lost to her is me
-Huh? You must be really amazing after all!
-WHAT!?

-ALL YOU EVER DO IS RUN AWAY!!
-FIGHT ME FAIRLY!!
-LEAVE ME ALONE!
-WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO BOOST YOUR STUPID EGO!?

06
-Feh! Forget you then!
-I thought those Gazelle assassins had more than that but whatever!
-I'm going to bed

-Way to brag, even though you used my power!
-Can it!! Oh, but do look me up, okay? Like, if this happens again
-What power are you talking about?

-Eh? Uh?
-Why are you staring...?

-C'mon, Kiri
-You didn't even tell her about it yet?
-But still,

-You're holding his hand and you didn't figure it out?
-Hah! Are you retarded or what?
-Eh...
-eh!?

-Didn't you ever experience your body getting lighter?

07
-That's right...come to think of it...
-The moment Kiri grabbed Sui's leg it felt that way

-But if I think back, I felt it yesterday too...
-No wait, all day...I hadn't noticed it before, but I've been feeling much better than when I first came to this town

-It's such a pain to try explaining this power to others
-...Ah!!

-I totally forgot! It's almost noon--I gotta get to the plaza
-Eh?? You're not going to tell me!?!

-Um, I'll do it over there, because I gotta help with the festival
-Festival??
-Hah!
-You really don't know a thing about Kiri, do you?

-Just follow him
-It's not like you've got anything else you need to do
-After all, he's

08
(counter-clockwise starting upper right)
-The one person
-Most responsible for Turm's Festival of Thanksgiving
-Morning, everyone!
-Yo, Kiri!! Mornin'!
-We're out of decorations, got any more?
-Check out the gate! It's done!
-You brought a girl with ya? That's a rare sight!
-Morning Kiri!

-Turm's celebration is the biggest in the entire area
-Today the entire town will be participating in it!
-And even tens of thousands of people will come from neighboring cities

-...then why are you in charge of such a big event?
-Well...it's more like people ask me to help
-plus, it is kinda fun

-by the way...

09
-You can touch my skin anywhere, not just my hand, and be okay, right?
-Like my shoulder or arm?
-Eh?

-See, I've got a lot of work today
-so I need both hands

-I thought about that too...
-I think it'll be fine
-Oi, Kiri!!
-C'mere a sec!
-Ok

-Couldja carve this 'ere up fer me?
-Please!
-Sure, in a moment
-Just grab my neck
-okay

-Wah

10
-SO FAST!!!
-Oh! Thanks a billion!

-Heh! Yer always as quick as lightinin'!
-What would we do without'cha?
-Although this is the only thing I can do...
-Wow, I'm fine
-Thank goodness, this makes things a lot easier

-What are ya talkin' about? Ya got that power too! Ya cured my 'lil sis' cold!
-In fact I still owe ya one!

-...cold? He cured a cold?
-Hey is that...
-yeah...

-That's the sister from yesterday...

-I knew it! (I saw her too)
-Sister...you mean the ones with Troi?
-If you touch her you'll get it
-But she's holding on to Kiri!!

-Ah...!!

11
-Ah! Hey everyone, about that...
-It looks like I'm immune to Troi

-It's probably thanks to this power, I don't really know
-But...

-Kya..
-wha--!
(bottom right to left)
-Sisters aren't all doom and gloom!
-All you need to do is be careful not to touch 'em
-If you just touch their clothes, you're absolutely fine!

no bubble: Eh? Really??
-...Hah, I was wondering about that this whole time
-I thought it was something far worse
-Looks like we have nothing to fear! sm: (they're just normal people)

no bubble: Who was afraid of them in the first place?
-Hey, someone go tell the town
-Sisters are nothing to be afraid of

-Thank you...
-why?

-That aside, tell me about your power!!
-What was that about you curing a cold??
-Huh? Oh yeah...

12
-Since I was born with it,
-I don't know really understand why or what it is...
-Simply,

-Anyone that I touch
-Experiences a boost in their vitality, including myself
-For example, it strengthens people's immunity, or healing power

-If I touch someone with a cold for a while, they'll recover quickly
-Well, I never imagined it would work against something like Troi too

-How's your shoulder doing? It doesn't hurt, right?
-Eh?

-T-that's right...
-Even though I was injured yesterday,
-Since I didn't feel a thing I totally forgot about it...
-I can't believe a power like this exists...

-And there's one more cool thing
-That my body can make possible

-What's that?
-HEY, KIRI!!

13
-We need to move this! Lend us a hand!
-Perfect, now I can demonstrate it
-Eh? what?

-When a person touches my body,
-Our physical strength--both stamina and muscle power--
-Is approximately doubled

-Eh?
-Basically holding my hand doubles our power overall

-That's not all--If another person joins in,
-All of our strength is tripled

-With 4, quadrupled
-With 5, quintupled
-Including Kiri that makes what, 30 to 40 people?
-We're ready any time!

-Elle
-Make sure to get a good look
-while holding on

14-15
-This is
-That power
-WHA---!!

-10 people multiplies it tenfold
-100 people, 100-fold
-We're all as strong as the number of people joined in

-...no way...

-Never seen anything like it, huh?

-I call it
-"Flare" (t/n - in case you're clueless like me, flare isn't just a fire attack from final fantasy. it also conveys the meaning of "spreading out", so a fitting name for this ability)

16
-He has a body impervious to Troi
-He's clearly a boy like no other
-...but he may also be

-Far more "special"
-Than I realize

-That's what
-Crossed my mind back then
bubble: I've always wondered why I've possessed this power

-Who knows? Maybe
-This power was meant for you all along

-Just kiddin'!

17
-That's right! We never understood it either!

-When I was pregnant with Kiri,
-One day my body just suddenly got lighter
-And I felt fine after that

-Although it didn't take like any time to realize he had a special power,
-Because my strength was doubled the whole time,
-After he was born I was shocked at how heavy everything felt all of a sudden
-She's had the same experience too...

-It's a complete mystery why Kiri has that power
-Who are we to comprehend God's ways?

18
-Dunno
-Since I'm the one with it, I don't really find this power strange

-True, everyone tries to use it for their convenience
-But it's kinda nice being different from others
-So I've come to like it
-Aren't you the optimist?

-What?? I have to take out the earplugs, I can't hear you!
-EEEK!!
-TAKE THEM OUT AND I'LL KILL YOU!

-Say what??
-His power
-Was something far beyond my comprehension

-Back then,
-I truly believed
-That it represented hope

-G'night
-'nite

19
-Little did I know
-That something extremely big was about to happen tomorrow

-UBWAH!!

-YEOWCH!!
-Kuh...
box: That's right...
