お腹空いた
I’m hungry...

Sorry but we don’t
have anything...

どどうしよう
泥まじつてる
And what do we do now...
It’s become muddy…

どっか水道管
ヒビ入ったのか
な。。。
Then the pipe must have
cracked somewhere…

Page 74
夜のうちに亡くなつた
んだと…思います
I think they must have died…
somehwere in the middle of the night.

Sfx: some kind of prair … ???
進藤さんも
田辺さんも心臓が
弱つてたからな
It must be becouse both,
Shindou-san and Tanabe-san
Had weak hearts… / had heart problems…
暑さも堪えて
たし…
and to top it off they
had to endure this heat…

So what now...

Don’t ask me…/ I have no clue… / literary: Even if you ask me… (not said: I have no idea)

亡くなつたといつても
今役所も病院も機能
してないだろうし
Well currently neither government
nor hospitals are working so there’s
nothing we can do about it.

困つたな
This is quite
a problem…

埋めるか焼くか
したら？
So are we going to
burry or burn them?

死んだら腐るし
この季節足が早い
In this season decompsition
will set soon. / pace will be quick, you know?

Page 75
簡単に言うな！
遺族がどこかにいるかも
知れないのにこちらで勝手に
処理しても…
Don’t say it so lightly! We have no idea where their family might be so we can’t deal with it on our own accord… ! (tlnote: damn his reasoning doesn’t make sense ;p)

I… I think that he’s actually right… / I will have to agree whith him on this…

身体の弱ってるお年寄り
ばかりの中で衛生面が
悪化するのは…
でか 勝も
The sanitary conditions that
would inevertebly occure, would be
fatal for the old people with weak health…
仏さまには
申し訳ないで
すが。。
So even through it’s preatty direspectful to the dead… we’ll have to do it …

Then…

Well we have
no choice…

こっそりやった方が
いいと思います
We should make it
as quietly as possible…

下手に知れ渡つたら
パニツクになります
If it were to be made well
know, the panick might erupt

早く…救助
来ないかな…
Damn... they should hurry up
and rescue as already!!

Page 76
何だか どんどん
マヒしていく気がする
疲れているから余計に
somehow... it feels as if numbness is creaping
all over me becouse of all this huge tention…

昨日今日とあれだけ
人が死んでるのに
And even through both today and
yesterday so many people have died…(they’re still not here.)

Hey!
まだ家に戻っちゃ
ダメなの?
Why the hell you won’t
let me go home alredy!?

落ちつけよ！
それどころじゃ
ないだろう?
Calm down!
And it’s not only about your house! / Besides it’s the same for all of us!

じやあいつ家
帰れんの!?
Then when i will i
be able to go, huh!?
Then when the hell will I be able to, huh!?

向こうで家族が
待っててるかも知れ
じゃん!
Besides, there might be my
family waiting for me there, right!?

あんまり吠えると
体力もたないよ
笹島
If you bark so much, you
will loose are your strenght you know? Sasajima-san HERNAME

Page 77
You know…

It’s possible that we won’t even be
getting our share of water any more …

Eeh?

Look

人が
増えてる
there are still people coming…

この近所の人だと
思う
I think it’s the residents
of this neighborhood

一晩経って明るく
なったから集まって
来たんだと思うわ
In just one night how
many of them do you think
came here, huh?

and that’s not all..

Page 78
朝
This morning...
弥富先輩達と
水道水が汚れてるから
調べて来たんだ
Yatomi-senpai and some
people went to waterstation to check up
why the water got so dirty… (literary: the water from waterservice ;p)

途中で水道管
破裂してた
They discovered that along
the way water pipe got broken…

ガス管も
やられてるんだと
思う
And I think it’s the
same with gas pipes…

西地区のほう
Look… there in the
direction of west district

まだ煙が
上がつてる
there is still
smoke rising...

まだここは
被害が少ない方なんだと
思う
Somehow i feel that
this place came off
really easy… compared
to the rest of town.

no way…

My…
マンション西町
My house is over there…!

だから余計
帰れないよ
笛島さん
That’s exactly why
we can’t go home yet. Sasajima-san

Page 79
おーい
そっちの学生
Hey you students
over there...

その中で具合が
悪い人はいないか?
Is there someone feeling
unwell among you ?

食料と水
It’s been decided…
優先順位決めるから
弱い人から分ける事に
しよう
that weak and ill people will
have priority on food and water.

Then it should be Sakurayama-kun from gradeschool… and

Auntie!!

Yakuma-san

Page 80

体調悪い
ですね
She has week
physical condition...
熱ある。。。
and a fever…

ごめんちょっと
疲れてて…
I’m sorry but i’m just
a little tired...

病気でした
よね
You said had some kind
of disease, didn’t you?
You sure you’re okay?

Is everything
alright?
Does it hurt
anywhere?

Well…

Page 80
You see now? … and besides...
私の分は頭数に
入れないでいて
頂けたら
if I got my part a
lot of other people won’t
get theirs right? If that’s so…

その分他の
子供に回して
下さい
Then take my part and share
it among all the children...

そう余裕のある
ものじゃなぃで
しょうし
I’m pretty sure there
won’t be much left after that, right?

おばちやん
病気なんだよ
Then auntie isn’t
ill, is she?

Yeah it seems
so…

家帰りたい
つて
She said that she
wants to go home…

Page 82
家に女の子
待つてるつて
And That her daughters …

Are waiting there for her.

…〈え
子供いるんだ
…heee…
so she’s a
mother, huh…

笛島さん
そんな所に座り込んで！
日射病になるよ
Sasajima-san if you seat and
sulk over there you will get
heatstroke, you know?

日影に行った方が
いいよ
Please at least move to
some shade, alright?

Here!

Kyaa!

Page 83
What the hell do you
think you’r doing, Kawana!
/ What the fuck up with you Kawana!

何 ダダこねて
んの あんた
What? Do you need some
petting or something?

Get a grip and start
listening to Sannou

You look like some idiot
so much it’s pitiful, you know?

あんたにの状況て
よくそんな態度て
いられるわね
For someone with your state of affairs,
you sure have attitude, don’t you!

Don’t you think
that’s a bit strange!?

皆一緒なのよ
It’s the same for everyone here

暗くなるなら
こっそり暗くなってよ
If you going to be
gloomy, be so in private.

あんたより小さい子
他にいっぱいいるの
あの子らからしたら
あんたも大人なの
There are a lot of little
children here much younger
then you and in their eyes
you too are one of the adults.

Page 84
他にやる事
やろう
Just busy yourself
with something.

Damn…

弥富先輩…
Yatomi-senpai...

Page 85
こんな黙って他人のもん
奪って食うとか
Silently taking someone
else’s food…

あいつと同じ事
しないといけないのか
Damn… Is there no other way then to do almost
identical thing to what that guys did?

食料と
とりあえず近場の
店舗から出来るだけ
集めて
For now we are taking
food from the nearby store

あと飲料水は
このまま泥水は
使えないから
and water since if it goes on like
this we won’t be able to use this muddy one

ろ過水にしてか
使うように
コンロもそうある訳じや
ないからライターとかあッタラ
全部出して
Also take everything that…
We’ll need for filtration of the
water that we have, like portable
gas burners, cooking stoves and matches.

雨降ってくるかも
知れない
Also for the sake,
of when it is raining

バケツもありったけ
置いて
we should take all the
buckets that they have.

Page 86
具合の悪い人が
いたら声かけて
If anyone feels unwell, don’t
heistate to woice it out.
急変したら人呼んで
Also make sure to tell
me if you are injured.

助けが来るまでの
辛抱だから
And all please try to endure
This until the rescue comes.

...本当に
助けなんて来るの
...are they really
going to come?

さっぱり他に人の気配
なんてしないし
moreover it seems as if other
people feel the same way…

H-Here...
I will c-carry it for you...

…ありがとう
ございます
...thank you...

Page 87
Ehm..
一人で持つには
重いんじや…
But isn’t this too heavy to
be carried by you yourself …?

他に手が空いて
る人とか…
shouldn’t someone
like.. Yamashita-sensei

…be doing this with you?

I.. I don’t…

Don’t mind it...Besides…

THAT PERSON

IS SCARY

Page 88
And i...
.. hate

to be scared

I really do.
Page 89
Ayuchi-san

Page 90
調子どう？
Hi there
Can i have a
moment with you?
別にそんな
緊張しなくて
いいよ
Hey, you don’t have to be so
tense around me you know?

Ah..
Um…

ちょっと前に
学校内で
気になる事
聞いたもん
でさ
You know..
I just wanna tell you real good story that happened in certain highschool
… just a while ago.

Page 91
腰の所 何かあてる
ものないか？
There’s nothing stuck
under your hip is there?
コンクリートの上じゃ
痛むでしよ
I bet it must hurt to
lay on concrete, right?

Yeah, sorry.

あんまり無理せん
ようにな
Don’t worry about
it too much...

気休めになるか
分からんが解熱剤は
あるから
No matter wther it’s just your
nerves or real deal, we have
plenty of fever medicine to spare.

お医者さん？
He’s a doctor?

この公園の下の
方にある内科医の
先生だった
he’s supposed to be some kind
of phisician from the lower part
of this park….
水谷医院て
あるでしよ
He was working at
Mizutani clinic I guess

何かあつたら
呼んで下さい
if something happens
just call out for me
何かあつたら
呼んで下さい
から。。。
I’ll be right over there
with my family...

Alright.

Page 92
よりによってなあ
災難な
This from all the things....
what a tragedy…

八熊さん
体拭いたげよっか
Yakuma-san… shall I whipe out your body…? (O____O) (she meens sweat) :P / or should I clean you out…?

Eh, no…
Realy Thank
you but no.

じゃあ着替え
だけでも
さっきもらって
出たから
Then at least please
change your clothes...
we don’t want you
to catch anything....

そうだよ
ちょっとは気持ち
ラクになるかもだよ
That’s right! Besides...
I bet will make you feal a
little better at least...

Yeah… you
might be right…

beside her head: ah!

page 93
上手な先生じゃなくて
大ゲサにあと残っちゃ
たんだよね
Well…
That’s what’s left AFTER some very grandiose
and skilled doctor, was over with me.

気持ちの
良いもんじやない
のに
This must be awful to look at…
Sorry


Ah… no …
I too am sorry.

そんな病気する
ようなタイプじやないと
思つてたんだけど
It’s just that you girls didn’t expect that
I was this sort of sickly person, didn’t you.

Page 94
うまくいかない
もんなのよね
。。。
well... It’s hard to express it well in words, isn’t it?


あーやっぱ
間違いないんだ
But yeah~~~ it’s just as I thought…

yeah yeah…

ひょっとしてとは
思ったんだよ
I thought that in all the absurdity it
might have been the case but still…

besides… it’s something that happened more then 10 years ago…
…we have no idea how much of it might be true.

Page 95
春先にPTAの総会で
色々あったから記憶に
残っててね
At the begining of spring in the general meeting of PTA
Various things happened and I still remember some of it.

知ってる? 出所する
前にちゃんと打診される んだよ
did you know? They even did proper
farewell party when he was about to be DISCHARGEd…

Because it would be bad if anything happened and he returned.

地元に近いし
やっぱこの辺に住んでるん
だろうなあってのは
It was close to here and it seems that he lived somewhere in this vicinity…

俺も思ってた
んだけど
at least that’s what I thought.

13年前に
連続殺傷事件
起こしたんだってね
And somehow… you’ve made me remember of that
serial murderer incident from 13 years ago…

didn’t you.

当時 未成年
だったし 医療少年院に
入るってのですぐ
話題 消えたけどさ
And I heard that since he was minor, got put into the medical reformatory, where he quickly disappeared from public view.

病院から出て
これちゃうんだな
こういうのも
and as soon as he came out of this facility
these kind of thing have happened…
======================================== this fu** conversation is killing me…~~~~ it’s the worst possible thing to be translating… “suggestions”

Page 96
落ち着いて
別に何かしようって
思ったんじゃなくて
don’t worry… FOR NOW, I
don’t plan to use it in any way…

確認したかった
だけなんだって
I was just simply
making sure…

through..

他に知ってる人
いるかどうか
分からないけど
I’m not sure yet if other
people are going to acquire
this knowledge or not…

And that’s right…
yeah…

何かあつたら
頼んますわ
I will be counting on you if
anything comes up…
Ayuchi-san

他に喋りは
しませんよ
don’t worry…
I won’t talk to anybody.

Page 97
After all… you don’t know
anything, right?

About this
incident…

I know some
things…

A-----Yuchi----

Ah.

Page 97
Wh…
What’s the matter?

向こうで
兄ちやん達
手伝えつて！
Big borther and others,
need some help over there!

Let’s go Ayachi—

Ye…Yeah
Page 98
What’s the matter…?

N…
No it’s nothing…

変なの
Weirdo.

炊き出しにも
限界があるな…
Damn, even rice portions
are limited, huh…

そうですね
何もかも限りが
ありますからね。。。
Yeah, just about everything
is going to be limited now…

街の方どぅ
だつた？
So… how does
matters stand?

何にも
この辺の人はあらかた
ここにいるし
well.. it seems that
pretty much almost all of the
people from this area have gathered here.

Page 100
救助した人もここに
運ばれた
Even the ones that were supposed
to bring rescue, also returned here.

一番近くの橋は
落ちてて分からないから
また明日 別のルートで向こう
見に行くって
They didn’t know that the nearest
bridge have been destroyed so we are going
to try out another route tomorrow.

…死人もいたようだけど
俺らは近付かせて
もらえなかつたし
…we even have seen some corpses, but no one
could bring themselves to approach them.
やるわ
食っとけ
…I will have
to pass on this.

自分の分は
ちゃんと食べてよ
食う気に なれねえよ
No way! You have to make sure
to eat your share properly.

I’ve lost an appetite
何かもう何日か前は
普通に家にいてtvとか
見てたのによ
and to think that just
several days ago, seeing
them on tv in my house
was nothing special.

嘘みてえ
It all seems so unreal.

Page 101
This town…
静かすぎるよね…
外ってどうなってるん
だろう
it seems waay to quiet....
I wonder what happened outside.

他に生きてる人
いるのかな
and If there even are other
alive people out there

笹島-
Sasajima-

Yamashita-sensei!

Page 102
And this is?

八熊さんの 分
Yakuma-san’s share…

八熊さんホラ
今 寝てるから
You know… Since she’s
sleeping right now…

Is that so?
笹優島しいな
You are such a good
girl, aren’t you.

Eh?!
EEH?!

Really!?
You really
think so!?

自分の飯は
Yeah. And what
about your share?

n- not yet.

Alrighty then.

これ先生 持ってて
やるからお前先に
行ってこいよ
You go ahead and I will
take care of this for you.

腹 減ってるんじゃ
ないのか?
Since you are
hungry, aren’t you:

eeh.

Page 103

Sensei

Hmm?

Th-
Thanks...

It’s not a problem, so go
ahead and eat something.

Yeesss~~~

Page 104
汁物以外は
もつな
In that case everything
except for soup.
/everything except
for soup will do.

Alright.

もう何食かは
確保しとかないと
they don’t get that you
have to ensure your own food.

Aaah…
Damn it all.

共倒れだけは
避けたいな
I just want to avoid being
dragged down with all of them.

(in bold) Really.

(note: I don’t know how to express in English these “miniature suggestions” that Japanese language allows to use… but he is having remorse, and is shown in a bit of positive light here)

Page 105
熱はちよつとは
下がつたかな
Seems your temperature might
have dropped a bit.

昨日と比べたら
十分楽だから
Well compared to yesterday,
I feel much better.

日陰も限られてるし
他の具合の悪い人に
代わりたいと思う
I think that I should free this protected from
sun place to someone in worse condition then me.

And I’m really
thankful to both of you.

Page 106
ちやんとここに整理して
置いてあったのよ
But there was proper amount
left here, wasn’t it!!!

だから見張り
つけるって
言ったんだ
That’s why I told we should
have left someone to guard it!

大声で騒ぐなよ
皆が動揺するく
It’s a bother to everyone if
You keep screaming like that.

But….

分量決めておいた
食糧が消えたん
だと
It seems that more rations
have disappeared then it was agreed.

huh….?

誰かが盗んだって
こと?
Then someone must have stolen it, right?

We can’t be sure.

とにかく今の
分はここから
Either way what about our current rations?

そんな事してたら
いつ食糧が…
If I knew something like this
would happen to them…

Page 107
Sfx near chaild: *wailing* *crying*

だから子供の声が
うるさいんだよ！ ‘
For god’s sake make
that kid shut up!

眠れないんだ”
People want to
sleep you know!!

Even if you tell me to…

腰がいたい
aah my hip hurts!
眠れないんだ”
It hurts!

もうこれ以上どうする
事も出来ないんだつて
じいちゃん。。。
There’s nothing more we can
do about it for now, Grandpa…

人が増えて何だか
空気が悪くなつてきましたね
…まだほんの3〜4日
なのに

As more people came…atmosphere started getting worse and worse…
…and it was merely three or four days…

関係ねえ
That’s not it...

こんな状況が続くの自体
ありえないだろ
I don’t believe that is the only reason for it.

Page 108
As i thought... this place is no good.

水も食糧もすぐ
底をついちまい
そうだ
Both water and food are
going to run out soon.

店自体
少ないしな
Supplies of this shop
are insufficient
/and this shop
won’t have much…

そのくせ住宅街で
人は多い
This fucking neighborhood
has to many people.

ちょつと都心部から
距離あるからな…
we would have to enlarge a
distance from the heart of the city.

Page 109
ee..
ehm..

This is…?

ああこれはいざと
いう時の為の食糧
aah… these are the emergency
provisions we’ll be using
when the time comes.

今後の決行に
備えないと
We have to prepare for
It best we can, right?

Wh-
What do-
-you mean…

ここに居ても
好転しないだろうし
Conditions here soon
will start falling rapidly.

少し移動しようと
思ってね
and I thought about
moving out a bit.

Page 109
も一緒に
来ますよね？
You will come with me,
Ayuchi-san, right?

事件の事も
あるし
There is also the matter of that
incident to consider, isn’t it.

でも皆は連れて
いけないんだよなあ
through… it we can’t take everyone
from our party with us, right?

人が増えると食糧の用意も
かさばるし目立つて動き
づらいし
The more people there is, the bulkier
the provisions would be, and we would stand
out too much. Plus it would be pain in the ass.

俺でしよ 阿由地さん
It would be both
of us obviously…

弥富は——ダメかな
あいつ反抗的だし
じゃあ山王もダメか
Yatomi…. Well he’s to rebellious
so he’s no good… so we’ll have
to leave Sonnou too.

Page 111
子供もダメかな
騒ぐし
Plus children are noo good either.
Since they are too noisy.

b-
but-

What, you want
Sakurayama to go?

情移ってんの
あんた？
What? You feel
Affection for him?

じゃあ尚更諦めなよ
子供にや移動はキツイ
Then that’s more reason to
leave him. Since journeys
like this are hard on children.

Also, we’ll have to
leave this Yakuma girl.

病人なんて
足手まといもいい
ところだ
I had enough of how burdensome
that sick person is.

Damn…

Page 111
あそこで死んでりん
良かったのに
If only she had died
in that accident....

Also… there is Kawana
and Sasajima…

I wonder…

What to do with
these two…?

Page 112
連れてくにもな
…まあどっちもいやとは
言わないよな
I want to take them...
… but I can’t seem to decide
witch one of them is better…

hmm…

食糧集めるにも
これ以上かすめるのは
リスクが大きいかな
And the risk of gathering even
more provisions is to great…

Ah I know.

Heyy…. Ayuchi-san

俺達
仲間だよな
we are comrades, aren’t we?

Page 114

Kawana-san

Oh
起きてたの
八熊さん
You have waken
up, Yakuma-san…

寝ないの
Can’t sleep?

あんまり眠く
ないし
Well I’m not
too sleepy...

いつもお母さん帰るの
待ってるから寝るの
遅くて
I was always waiting for my
mother to get home, so I’m
used to staying late.

You’re warring
about her?

Page 115
… well I have no idea what happened to her.

無事ならいいん
だけど——
It would be nice if she was alright... but still...

I’m sorry…

But what about you, Yakuma-san…?

It’s no problem…

And well.. things
don’t stand too good…

先に死んじやう
なんてね
For her to die
before me…

あんまり良くない
病気ばっかりで
things didn’t look too good since
I was constantly ill

ずい分苦労かけて
そのくせ私バカなもん
です
This “fucking idiotic me” was always bringing her hardships… and you see…
(note: I’m translating literary :P)

お願いだから
先には死ぬなって
良く言われて
She always kept begging me
not to die before her…

こんな状況なんだけど
それは守れた
のかなあ
I wonder if this kind situation
counts as keeping this promise...

Page 115

I heard you had children…

Yes…

私隣の市に
住んでてこつちの病院に
通ってたの
We live in the neighboring city,
and I’m constantly traveling to
the hospital in this one.

お父さんに預けて
来たっきりで…
So I left them with
father and came here…

無事だと
いいんだけど
I hope they are
safe, but still…

I’m really sorry

話題考えれば
良かった
small: I should think more before I talk… /
Page 117

八熊さん
体調悪いんだし
You’re in weak condition
Yakuma-san…
もう寝とかない
とーーー
so you have to make sure
to sleep properly…


静かにしろ
Quiet down Kawana!

Page 118
Yamashita-sensei!?

今からの事
誰にも言うんじゃ
ないぞ?
ホラ

You’ll make sure...

Not to tell anybody about what’s
going to happen, Understood?

待っとけ
So calm down! / Take it.
( welll no idea if this is correct or not… because “leave it be” didn’t exactly fit in here and either of the above are possible…)

ねぇ
何する気?!
No way…
besides what the
hell do you want!?


Page 119
阿由地さん：
Ayuchi-san…

He is veeery bad
person

大人しくしてないと
お前も大変な目に
あうぞ？
And if you don’t behave, something really
bad might happen to you too., you know?

UGU ( sound of being gagged)

What the~~

Page 120

Hey Ayuchi

Do her in already!!
