Hoshi no Samidare 32

Hammer 32

This is free to be used by anyone. If it is to be used in a scanlation, credit the translator as Transfade. Bubbles that have no need to be translated are not included. Bubble sequence is in order from rightmost to leftmost in most cases otherwise just figure out the flow of the speech bubbles. Generally I may interchange SFX sounds with their onomatopoeia to go with the flow. I may also leave certain phrases in Japanese because I can’t think of a suitable English equivalent. This translation has yet to be proofread.

Name Mutter: - Means a person says something outside a bubble
SFX: - Sound Effect
Name: Apple Banana(STYLE) Cucumber – Means a particular word has to be done in a specific style
Name(STYLE): - Means the entire sentence is done in the mentioned style.
(Random) – Means a comment only meant for working purposes.
(TN:) – Means this comment is meant to be included in the typesetted version.

Sami: To describe my mother, how would you put it... She's just like any other person
Sami: She's like an aunt who comes by to play twice a year or something like that.
Sami: Of course, oneechan also came with her since they used to live together.
Sami: And those times we met visit, she was like the a relative's older sister.
Sami: Fuu

Page 88
Sami: We were that kind of family.
Sami: I really did like them and thought of them well enough.

Sami: You're already going?
Mother: Sorry about this Sami. I'm not sure when exactly I'll be able to come next time.
Mother: But I'll definitely come again.
Hisame: Mom, I think that should be on the 1st...
Mother: There's a surgery planned on that day.

Page 91
Hisame: When I was living in France, I would only see Sami twice a year you see. She was cute and I did like her.
Hisame: We were family but it didn't really feel that way

Page 92
Hisame: I graduated from elementary school and went straight to middle school.
Hisame: Then Sami fell sick when she was 1 years 10 months old. Mom and me went to France.
Hisame: Generally one wouldn't leave a baby like that.
Hisame: I don't really have the right to talk about dad since I myself came here stumbling about.
Hisame: Are you listening?
Hisame: Hey. Umm... what was it again?
Anima: Ni... Ma... Ani
Anima: Ma......

Page 93
Hisame: Anima?
Hisame: What a strange name.
Anima mutter: Urra Urra Derori
(She's mumbling in her sleep)
Anima: Sa...
Anima: ...mida
Hisame: Yes yes. I was talking about Sami.
Hisame: ... I didn't come see her when she was born
Hisame: But the first time I touched Sami was when she was a baby.

Page 94
Hisame: That tiny hand of hers grasped tightly onto my finger.

Page 95
Hisame: I'll never forget the impact that moment had on me...
Yuuhi: ...sensei
Yuuhi: Sensei.
Yuuhi: Good morning.
Hisame: ...Hey Amamiya.
Hisame: ...Where's Sami?
Yuuhi: Well you see...
Yuuhi: She doesn't want to come over...
Hisame: ...Honestly...
Hisame: Hello. Sami? Mom's not here today so come over and eat.
Hisame: ...yeah. It's work related.

Page 96
Yuuhi: It's safe okay.
Sami: Mmm.
Someone: Itadakimasu
Someone: Thank you for the food.
Hisame: What are doing this afternoon Sami?
Sami: After this I'll be going to my friend's place to do summer homework. I'll eat over there.
Yuuhi: I'll also be going out this afternoon to have a good time.
Hisame: Don't act like you're my child so nonchalantly.

Mikazuki: RAAAAAAAAAAAHH!!
Mikazuki: Ooops
Yuuhi: Hey.
Tarou: Ah.
Tarou: Please listen to this

Page 98
Tarou: Mikazuki-san is always hogging it to himself and won't switch with us.
(He ends his bubbles with a bit of a -su so it would have been funny to make him say dood)
Tarou: This goes against the idea of working together
Tarou mutter: Uwaaan
Tarou mutter: Let's switch already
Mikazuki: Yay
Yuuhi: Good grief... We'll just have to wait till he gets tired of playing with it.

Page 99
Noi: What's wrong Yuuhi?
Yuuhi: Nothing...
Yuuhi: Oh yeah. Kusakabe-kun. Have you come with an idea for your psychic ability yet?
Tarou: EH? Mine?
Tarou: For example, small things...

Page 100
Mikazuki: KAAAAAAHH!!
Shea: ...Yaako
Yayoi: It's alrght. Just remain calm.
Mikazuki mutter: Waaaa

Page 101
Shimaki: The weather is nice isn't it.
Coo: A break would be nice.

Page 102
Friend A: Later then
Friend B: Farewell

Page 103
Sami: Okay. See ya
Friend A: Ah. The CD I borrowed...
Friend B: Oh my...
Friend: Huh? She's gone.
Phone: Cha Cha La Li Laa
Sami: Ah. Mail.

Text
From: Oneechan
Sub: (Blank)
Mom is going to be late so she won't be coming home. Come back home tonight for dinner okay.

Sami:Reply... there

Text
To: Oneechan
Sub: Re:
No it's fine. I'll think of something. I'll be staying at Yuu-kun's today too,

Page 105
(TN: Traceurs would kill to be able to do what she just did.)
Sami: ...Haa
Sami: ...I wonder if oneechan's mad at me...

Page 106
Hisame: ...At times like this
Hisame mutter: Siiigh
Hisame: What should I be doing.
Hisame: If it were him, what would he do...

Page 107
Hisame: Hey Amamiya
Hisame: Let's drink some beer.
Yuuhi: Itadakimasu
Noi: Good grief... How uncouth
Yuuhi: Sensei

Page 108
Yuuhi: The reason why Samidare-san avoids your mother
Yuuhi: Would be okay if you could tell me about it
Hisame: ...It was about 4 years ago.
Hisame: That's when Sami started getting better
Hisame: At that time, Sami's condition suddenly took a turn for the worse
Hisame: She collapsed into a coma for an entire week.
Hisame: I returned back to Japan the moment I heard about it
Hisame: Mom couldn't
Hisame: She had a patient to take care of
Hisame: Since that year, Mom wasn't able to come and visit Sami.

Page 109
Hisame: Once she became famous, she was unable to take time off.
Hisame: Ever since then Sami refuses to talk to mom.
Hisame: ...Sami... Whenever she was with you, did she ever talk to you about me?
Yuuhi: ...ummm
Hisame: Mom went to France to pursue her goals.
Hisame: I on the other hand didn't have such a reason. It's different now compared to back then. We didn't have the feelings that came with blood ties.
Hisame: I'm the one who's really inexcusable.
SFX: Crinkle
Hisame: Because of that I'm always worrying.

Page 110
Hisame: Does she really not resent me at all?
Hisame: Does she actually acknowledge me as her sister?
Yuuhi: If it were Shinonome-san then he'd probably go and ask the person directly.
Yuuhi: I think
Hisame: ...maybe
Yuuhi: Then let's go
Hisame: Huh?

Page 111
Hisame: Wait...
Hisame: Hey? What are you...
Yuuhi: Like I said, talk to her directly...
Hisame: Ah. Look here you...
Yuuhi: About things like your mother and also yourself.
Yuuhi: Wouldn't it be just great to be able to talk to her about family frankly.
Hisame: Ev-even if you say that...
Yuuhi: In that case just let Samidare-san have some beer and...
Hisame: She's only 16!!
Yuuhi: She's already(EMPHASIS) 16.

Page 112
Yuuhi: I don't know about her being a child.
Yuuhi: But I know she can talk. She'll definitely respond.
(The literal translation says counter-measures but that would sound odd)
Noi: Hou...
Hisame: ...Got it. We'll part here.
Hisame: I'll go by myself.
Yuuhi: Don't forget to smile.
Yuuhi: Adults should put on a happy face.
Yuuhi: Samidare-san will like that.
Hisame: ...What's with you?
Hisame: You sound just like Shinonome-san.
Yuuhi: You said so yourself didn't you?
Yuuhi: That you'd smile for both me and Samidare-san's sakes.
Yuuhi: In place of Shinonome-san.

Page 113
Yuuhi: Like this.
Hisame: Like this.
Noi: So you can do it if you try.
Yuuhi: I know that it wasn't like me to do so.
Yuuhi: But having been shown that kind of face, it just wouldn't feel right to keep on drinking after all.

Page 114
Yuuhi: I never ever want to see the princess' troubled face.
Noi: But still Yuuhi. It also happened with Shinonome-dono and Akitani-dono. ...Though I don't know the contents of the book.
Yuuhi: It's nothing big. I just did it on a whim.
Noi: Did you know? Kids, you see
Noi: When they see an adult carry out their whims, they'll want to become adults themselves.
Yuuhi: Is that so

Page 115
Yuuhi: Sensei
Hisame: Sami was asleep.
Yuuhi: Want to have a drink?
Hisame: Nah. It's early but I'm going off to sleep.
Hisame: Goodnight
Noi: Well, it's not like there weren't any results right? Her face has loosened up a bit.

Page 116
Yuuhi: Ah Mother.
Yuuhi: Welco....
Mother mutter: Kukaaa
Mother mutter:Kuuuuuu
(TN: This runs in the family for generations. The author is a master of Chekov family of tropes)
SFX: Shuffle Shuffle
Noi: Is she sleepwalking...!?
Sami mutter: Snnooore

Page 117
Sami: Uuu
Hisame: It seems that... This kind of thing happened before
Hisame: It was 3 years ago when I decided on this lifestyle.
Hisame: ...You and me. Can we really do this...
Hisame: I don't have much confidence though...

Page 118
Hisame: Ahhh
Hisame: The baby from that time is right here. This time, the two of us will really become family.
Hisame: I'll give it my all. That's what I was thinking.
(TN: This right here is a Crowning Moment of Heartwarming)

Page 119
Hisame: Hey. Why did you want to know about Sami?
Hisame: ...Say. Haven't we met somewhere before...

Page 120
Hisame: No... Oh well...
Anima: Mm...
Anima: Munnya Munnya...
Animus: What's going on...
Animus: What has happened to Anima...
