Narrator: ~~Summary of Last Time~~ The one thing we can comprehend now is that the Dengaku Man Plamo has been completed by memory by Plamo master Tennosuke…………
(Translator’s Note: “Plamo” is the building and construction of plastic models, a huge hobby in Japan going from creating models from a kit or building them from scratch)
Tennosuke: It’s different than I imagined…
Beauty: IT LOOKS FINE!!
Narrator: Hell Area
Roman Kikou: You who have come here will be buried. ARE YOU PREPARED?

Roman Kikou: WELL THEN LET’S GO: GENJUU SHINKEN OUGI: DOUBLE RASHOUMON!!!
(Translator’s Note: “Genjuu” = “imaginary creatures”, usually seen as “UMA” or “unidentified mythical animal” or “cryptids”. As for “Rashoumon”, as I may or may not mentioned prior, it is the entrancing castle gate at the southern end of Nara and Kyoto as based on their construction on Chinese-style planning)

Pot: BOILING POT
SFX: STIR STIR
“Roman Kikou”: GUAAAA, DAMN~~!!!! IT WAS A TRAP~~~~!!
Don Patch: I KNEW AT THE TIP OF MY NOSE THAT I THOUGHT YOU WERE GOEMON~~!
(Translator’s Note: OK, I think I can translate the whole bit now: basically when the “Emon” creatures appeared, they were looking for 5-Emon…of course, since “5” is “Go” in Japanese, that makes “5-Emon” actually “Goemon”…which he admits to finally)
Goemon: S**T----WHAT!? WHAT IS HE!? HE’S ABLE TO TAME IMAGINARY CREATURES AND ALSO HAS SEEN THROUGH TO MY TRUE FORM…WHAT EXACTLY IS HE-----!!!?
Caption: ROMAN KIKOU  Former R-Block Leader: ISHIKAWA GOEMON
(Translator’s Note: Not only is “he” Goemon, but he has been revealed to be “Ishikawa Goemon”, who was a legendary ninja of the 16th century who robbed from the rich to give to the poor. And as Don Patch just demonstrated, Goemon was boiled to his death after a failed assassination attempt on Toyotomi Hideyoshi, a daimyo who unified Japan in this period.)
Tennosuke: He really was Goemon…
SFX: HYUUUUU

Don Patch: OK, LET’S GO EVERYONE!!
Creatures: OH----!!
Don Patch: DON PATCH’S IMAGINARY CREATURE MASSIVE PANDEMONIUM!!!
(Translator’s Note: The term used for Don Patch’s attack is “Hyakki Yakkou”, which is usually used for a march of yokai running amuck together at the same time. But since it translates rather well and isn’t “exactly” yokai, I translated it as is)
SFX: BO—OM
Goemon: GOE-----!!!
Goemon: YOU~~~I CAN’T FORGIVE YOU-GOE!! I WILL NEVER END THIS AS IS-GOE-ZO~~~!!!

Beauty: WHAT IS THIS ROOM-------!!!!

Translator's Note: Polygon Shinken is cool...but creepy. Just from what we've seen so far, the ability to physically break down all three-dimensional objects to their base and be able to manipulate them or literally break them apart...could be seen as broken. (but then again, that's what we said about Rice's Kome Shinken once...though I doubt I wanted to see Lambada as a panda) And meanwhile, Rem just keeps sleeping through her fight...but of course, the highlight of the chapter is Don Patch's bizarre manipulation of the fight against Roman..er, Goemon...er, whatever his name is! The Shinken is probably strange and would have been more powerful if some other things emerged due to the variety of imaginary things there are out there...but Goemon in general is just a comedic villain...a fun one but mostly comedic. Don Patch being...well whatever he is is probably his natural foil. Oh and speaking of comedy...yeah, Tennosuke getting a kancho is low but...he's probably not going to feel it since he's tokoroten and all.
