Torpedo Girl: WAN WAN WAN WAN!! WAN WAN!!
(TN: Yeah, “Wan” is a dog bark in Japanese, but I’ll explain why I kept it in a bit)
Beauty: KYA!!
Torpedo Girl: WAN WAN WAN WAN!!
Beauty: WHAT? TORPEDO-SAN IS SUDDENLY BARKING AT BO-BOBO!! WHY!?
Torpedo Girl: ONE ONE ONE ONE
(TN: The first reason: “Wan” can also be a reading for “One” in Katakana)
Torpedo Girl: WAN WAN WAN
Torpedo Girl: WAN WAN WAN
(TN: The other reason why Torpedo Girl is barking, with “wan” as a reading for “King”)
Beauty: KING!? YOU’RE A KING!!?

Beauty: AH!!
Beauty: WHAT’S THAT? SOMETHING IS RISING UP BEHIND BO-BOBO…

Bi-bibi: Haa haa
Bo-bobo: This new power is born from an inconclusive massive power that’s become embodied…The name it’s called is “HAJIKE”! Unbelievably it’s descended to me……
(TN: Just like “Shigeki” had another reading later on when Shigeki X transformed, “Hajike” in this case has a special three kanji reading which here is made out as “Supreme Hearse Camlet”, with a “camlet” being a fabric usually sewn of camel or goat’s hair)

Bi-bibi: His technique…what is this stupid form? An embodied energy!?...unbelievable.
Beauty: HE-KUN, WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
SFX: FLIP FLIP
Book: MEMO / HEPPOKO’S
Don Patch: “HAJIKE” is like a second self where the soul of the user is embodied by energy. It is truly a union. In the time HAJIKE is limited to, the abilities of the surpassed Shinken can be invoked, but it will disappear whenever the real Bo-bobo takes a serious injury.
Heppokomaru: DEFEATED!!
Tennosuke: OF COURSE. EMBODIED ENERGY? I UNDERSTAND THIS…
Tennosuke: Indeed we should have them behind us too. (HAJIKE)
Dengaku Man: YEP.
SFX: ZUZUZU
Beauty: NO, THOSE ARE ONLY SUICIDE GHOSTS.
(TN: “Suicide Ghosts” is actually “Jibakurei” in Japanese, which is the ghost of a victim who has committed suicide, binding it to the material Earth)

Kanji: JIRAI (LANDMINE)
Panda Shirts: JANKI
(TN: “Janki” is a special style of Mahjong developed by Shouichi Sakurai)
SFX: BUON
Beauty: AMAZING…WHATEVER BI-BIBI DOES, IT WON’T WORK AND HE TAKES DAMAGE. HAJIKE…IT’S TOO INCREDIBLE…THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT’S SEEN
Bo-bobo: IT SEEMS WE’RE AT CONCLUSION TIME. THE FATE OF THE HAIR HUNT THAT WE’VE CROSSED AN ETERNITY FOR.

TN: Who knew that a bunch of explosions could be...so exciting! It's strange that the ultimtae power of Extra Dandy is tied to stepping on Landmine Dandy and therefore taking the consequence...but basically if anyone sets it off, Bi-bibi takes the damage so it's all good. I sort of wish Don Patch took part in this penultimate battle against the final enemy with how weird it got (landmines in flower beds?) but...since he's Don Patch, he's got an excuse...but somehow Tennosuke and Dengaku Man were just tossed around. Meanwhile, I'm still a bit confused about Torpedo Girl: one thing I never really like about her is that she's so unstoppable that she dissapears and reappears at random. Sure I get that her power would make the battle too easy but I sort of expected more from her this chapter than recognizing her dad now powering Bo-bobo...and tearing Tennosuke up again. But we've finally reached what essentially is the climax: with Bi-bibi at his limits, the final fate of everything (well for this part of the series) will be determined once and for all...next time!
