Chapter 52: Tearful Honors to Home

165.
Narrator: May 30th, 1980: there was a person who smashed the peace on planet Atarakatara…
Person: Huh? What’s that sound…
People: ……………

(No dialogue)

167.
Suguru: Wahahahaha, those guys asked and received surprise, Meat!!
Meat: What you’re doing is bad, prince…
Suguru: Ah…
Pilot: You won’t do a good job if you’re the ones in the cockpit…!!
Pilot: Chairman Phreas has allowed for you to return to Planet Kinniku before your World Tour. Please don’t pull any stupid disturbances………
Suguru: Ah…planet Kinniku!!
Meat: They’ll especially be please since you’ve been away for a long time.
Suguru: Well it’s because it’s a return where I’m not a stupid prince, but a champion. So to say, it’s a “Triumphant Homecoming”!
Suguru: You’re really great, Meat~~~!! GUOO…
Meat: PRINCE—
Pilot: Well…well, this is the man who has become champion.

168.
Narrator: Planet Kinniku: Main Street
People: This really has been a long time since we’ve met Suguru. He was a stupid brat even in high school. The stupid son of the Daioh returns…
Mayumi: Suguru, hurry and come ho~~me.
Rare: I wonder if Meat’s alright?
Husband: Rare, don’t worry. He is our little brother.
Yudetamago: However, I thought the Daioh was at Narita Airport, how is he here…?
Mayumi: Ooh…

169.
Banner: WELCOME BACK
Meat: Wa—there’s a lot of people, Prince.
Girls: Kya—the prince is showing his face.
Pilot: Well, it’s time. That’s the end of the “Triumphant Homecoming”!

170.
Pilot: Hurry with your farewell!
Meat: ………?
Suguru: Hey, was that a “Triumphant Homecoming”~~~~
Pilot: They decided that your stay on Planet Kinniku would be five seconds.
Suguru: You idiot, I didn’t hear that, hurry and go back--!!
Suguru: Wh…what is with your behavior?

171.
Meat: SW-26, You’re not getting a bit of admiration for what you’ve done. Is there an abnormality in your mind circuit?
Pilot: I graduated the top of my class in aviation at cyborg school. I shouldn’t have any abnormalities.
Meat: Well then, if we’re traveling abroad, can’t we touch down on Planet Kinniku soil? At least a bit so we can talk to the family.
Pilot: I would return your words, but if Meat is also the companion, then you should understand the busy work that the champion has……
Pilot: Is that fine? His hard schedule of fights begins from the moment he wears the Champion Belt on his body!! The schedule is entirely created by the World Choujin Association. The champion has the duty to digest it…
Assistant: Prince, have you looked at the back of the belt?
Suguru: The back? Is there belly-button lint on it?

172.
Suguru: ……………
Suguru: Aaah…the names of the historical champions are carved in!!
Assistant: The…the Daioh’s name too…
Meat: Well then, your eyes were stolen by the shininess of the front that you didn’t notice the history of the Choujin Olympics in back.
Suguru: It’s……heavy…
Meat: Oh……Prince!

173.
Suguru: Heavy…why is this belt heavy……At a glance, seeing the brilliance of the the World Champions on back, th…this is a gloomy thing……!!
Assistant: Prince, if it’s better for you to throw away the belt, then we shall return to planet Kinniku.
Meat: Prince, come to good judgment…
Suguru: One thing I want to know: where is our first stop…
Pilot: Originally it was to be secret but I have no choice……it is Hawaii.
Suguru: What? Hawaii……

174.
Suguru: Is this Hawaii the island where those cute girls were grass skirts and dance the hula dance…
Pilot: It is a selfish image, but it is…
Suguru: Change of plans!
Suguru: Uoooooo, Waikiki Beach is calling me!!
Pilot: What is the personality? Of him…
Meat: Ac…actually, it’s so he won’t throw away his belt. He he…

175.
Caption: HAWAII—
Suguru: OH! LOVELY HAWAII
Suguru: Emerald Sea!
Suguru: Blue Sky!!
Suguru: HAWAII~~~!!

176.
Suguru: Now charge~~~~!!
Pilot: Our duty has ended. From here you’ll be given a separate guide.
Meat: Thanks for everything.
Pilot: We’ve realized…
Meat: Yep!
Suguru: ALOHA----!!
Girls: KYA--!! PIGMAN~~!!
Meat: Yeah, yeah, even his first step into Hawaii and he flat-out misstepped. He’ll need sympathy ahead. (This’ll be good…)

TN: All in all this chapter really seems to keep screwing at Suguru in one way or another whether he wants it to or not. He is stuck on a brutal schedule, can not even leave the airplane to visit his home in the first time in forever (and probably one of the few times he'll be there in the run of the series) and gets stuck deciding to start his schedule in Hawaii...well it wouldn't be so bad if he saw the next chapter, but you feel for him regarding the responsibility he has now, at least according to some of what Robin Mask said at the end of the last chapter. Unfortunately that even won't help him out with what comes next...but unfortunately Suguru is probably used to this insanity by now, from the bad breaks to the girls running from him to the weird matches he had both as a hero and as a Choujin warrior.
