Dogashi Kaden! 5

Seeing the cover page of this one, I think Hamada-sensei perfectly understands what I need in this manga! :nuts (more Hazuki-chan, that is :shakefist) But well, not a lot of readers will think of this manga as great, I'm afraid, but it's still definitely good in my opinion :amuse

Enjoy~

Dogashi chapter 05

Page 01

5th period : Small faith in one’s foothold
Left : Acting both as manager and coach! Hazuki, reviewing the strategies by herself in the middle of a summer night!!

Page 02

Right : It ended!! Sudou VS Haruyoshi!

Haruyoshi : I... lost?

Page 03

Yoshino : ... Well, he was doing good in the beginning .

Yoshino : With his forward speed and the sharpness of his instant turn
Yoshino : He was aiming for a play that’d make use of his own abilities...
Yoshino : ... It’s just that

Yoshino : what made the difference is...
Yoshino : Their heights!!!

Yoshino : His handling of the ball... If it had been better, he wouldn’t have been that slow after passing him.
Yoshino : He wouldn’t have been caught and gone all the way until the end.

Hirose : ... but

Page 04

Hirose : A loss is a loss.

Yoshino : Ca...
Yoshino : Captain Hirose!!!

Page 05

Hirose : ... It’s a nice opportunity, so the other freshmen should listen as well.
Sudou : ... Why me too...

Hirose : “Harmony is honorable”
Hirose : Do you understand that saying? This isn’t simply about getting along with each other.
Hirose : That also means that even while in conflict, comrades have to respect each other.

Hirose : Guys who disturb the harmony of the team.
Sudou : Then why me too...

Hirose : Guys who bring unnecessary things to practice...
Nerima : Aah!!!

Hirose : It’s not good if such guys aren’t sanctioned.... That’s why
Nerima : They’ll see my true face!!

Page 06

Hirose : Freshmen
Hirose : You bastards are fired from the club.

Yoshino : Wa....
Yoshino : Wait, Hirose!

Hirose : Discussion is over.
Hirose : And Nerima, you’ll clean the toilets for one week.
Nerima : WHAT!?

Haruyoshi : .. fired
Haruyoshi : because of me...

Sudou : ... I get it, I quit.

Haruyoshi : !! Eh!? Wait a minute!!
Sudou : Shut up, it’s enough if we quit, huh?
Sudou : Then I will.
Haruyoshi : In that case, I should be the only one! Since it’s my fault!

Page 07

Hazuki : Isn’t that inconvenient?
Hazuki : How about the new club members’ exam?

Hirose : ... What do you mean?
Hirose : Minagawa...

Hazuki : No matter what, these two have been from the start invited by the scouts and aren’t proper club members yet.
Hazuki : But
Hazuki : I’ve already approved of them to some extent.

Hazuki : After that they only needed your permission...
Hazuki : It won’t be too late to decide to fire or just punish them after you’ve tested their abilities, right?

Hirose : ... fu
Hirose : You’re just too soft, acting like their mother.

Page 08

Hazuki : Since you’re just like a stubborn father, it can’t be helped, you know.
Hazuki : Aren’t you happy, guys?
Hazuki : You’ve been saved by the skin of your teeth.

Hirose : ... Alright, we’ll do that in three days
Hirose : I’ll tell you about the details of the test later.

Hirose : If you fail the test, you won’t join the club.
Hirose : I won’t listen to any objection.

Shiba : Hey, hey, hey, hey
Haruyoshi’s arrow : Completely sorry
Sudou’s arrow : Doesn’t care
Shiba : What are we going to do with you guys...

Page 09

Shiba : And first of all!! Why the hell do I have to get involved in that mess!!
Sudou : ... because it’s a 3 on 3
Sudou : No need to burn like that, crest guy.
Sudou (small text, left of the SFX) : It’s hot...

Haruyoshi : Will... will you forgive... me?
Haruyoshi (small text) : It’s my fault, huh...
Shiba : Like I will, moron!!!
Shiba : Listen!! Do you understand how desperate the situation is!?

Shiba : The opponents will be three of the best members of Touryou!!
Shiba : Yoshino-san, Sayama-san, and Nerima-san, their names are famous among the great players of Tokyo!!!
Shiba : You know at least that, right!?

Haruyoshi : ... I’m sorry
Haruyoshi (small text) : I’m so much weaker than them...
Sudou : ... And how is that desperate?
Shiba : Shit! These reactions as I expected!!!

Shiba : Listen!! Damn!! First you guys must understand the crisis you’re in!!
Shiba : Why am I the most upset when I’m not even concerned!! It’s weird!!!

Page 10

Right : His basketball position in high school was Shooting Guard!! Hamada Kousuke-sensei’s manga can be read only in Weekly Shounen Jump!!

Shiba : First, let’s look at the organization of this 3 on 3.
Shiba : If you think about the positions, then there’s no mistaking that the match-up will me Ookado vs Yoshino-san, Me (Shiba) vs Sayama-san, and Sudou vs Nerima-san.

Shiba : If it comes to this, the problem is Nerima-san.
Shiba : With the powerful plays he makes with his 192cm tall, 94kg heavy giant body won’t be something that Sudou and his 185cm can stop.

Shiba : ... Do you understand, Sudou?
Shiba : Your match-up with Nerima-san will be our worst flaw.

Shiba : You might be scoring 4 times out of 5 tries right now on one-on-one
Shiba : But!!! With Nerima-san under the goal, it’ll hardly be the same thing!!!

Shiba : Unfortunately, I’m not the type of player that scores a lot, so...
Shiba : ... if it comes to this

Page 11

Shiba : In this match...
Shiba : I don’t want to admit it, but
Shiba : The key to win it
Shiba : is Ookado!!!

Sudou : ... Are you stupid?
Sudou : How would you want to use this guy?

Shiba : ... Listen, Sudou, if you go to the opposite side, the ones marking you will follow.
Shiba : In that case, the probability Ookado becomes free is high

Shiba : That’s why

Page 12

Shiba : You will be the one to score, Ookado.
Shiba : There is no other way...!!!

Haruyoshi : I will...
Haruyoshi : score...!?

Shiba : First is the bank shot.
Yagisawa : Aim for the ball to hit the backboard first!
Shiba : It’s a shot that uses the backboard.
Shiba : Even you should be able to do something like this, right?

Shiba : When a bank shot misses the goal, it will usually fall far away from it, so it’s harder to get rebounds of it
Shiba : That’s when Sudou and I...
Sudou : Worthless!
Shiba : Ah?

Page 13

Sudou : I don’t want to hear about your egghead basketball.
Sudou : Whether it’s 3 on 3 or 5 on 5,
Sudou : I alone will be enough.

Shiba : What!!!
Sudou : It’d help if you guys don’t do anything.
Shiba : What did you say!?

Sudou : The key to win it is me.
Sudou : If you want a strategy, then how about I have my one-on-one, and you guys... Just watch.
Sudou : See ya.

Shiba : That bastard!!!

Haruyoshi : I’m...
Haruyoshi : The key...

Page 14

Haruyoshi : Someone like me that was always a substitute in middle school....
Haruyoshi : and that nobody would practice with....

Haruyoshi : ... Shiba-kun
Haruyoshi : I’m sorry, you probably don’t want to tag along for practice
Shiba : ... well, I don’t mind
Shiba : No matter what, in three days it’ll only be a makeshift.

Haruyoshi : .... Even then
Haruyoshi : Even if it’s a makeshift or anything...
Haruyoshi : I want to get a little bit of confidence with that...! Since I don’t even have that right now...!

Shiba : Hehe... Just as I thought
Shiba : Alright! Let’s go, key man.

Page 15

Someone : Dash, dash, dash, dash!!!

Shiba : Stop!!!
Shiba : Why are you bow-legged!!

Shiba : Idiot!! Well, at least now you can catch the ball, but
Shiba : Why is your lower half so unsynchronized when you’re shooting!!

Shiba : Listen! Don’t rush, first, you must stop and properly shape your legs to form a triangle with the ground!
Shiba (left text) : With the toes inward!

Shiba : Stop, jump and then shoot!
Shiba : This rhythm! Do it while screaming it!
Shiba : Once more!!

Shiba : Aah, damn, how many times do I have to tell you!!

Page 16

Shiba : You’re the key to win the match, Ookado!!

Haruyoshi : In the entrance test this time...
Haruyoshi : They’re relying on me...

Sudou’s arrow : Morning person
Sudou : ... hm?

Haruyoshi : I’ll definitely do my best!!!
Haruyoshi : Since I’m the key man!!!!

Page 17

Haruyoshi : I will make the difference in this match...!!

Narration : After being given a big role for the first time...
Narration : he became naturally self-conceited.

Sudou : ... hopeless
Sudou : It’s better to leave it to me.

Narration : And then, the remaining three days of makeshift (said Shiba) passed by...
Someone : Alright! Once more!

Page 18

Hirose : Well then, whether you laugh or you cry
Hirose : It’s a match in one round.

Hirose : You don’t need to hold back.
Hirose : It’s meaningless.
Nerima : Of course!

Nerima : You’re really...
Nerima : a cheeky brat, huh...

Next week, what will the best members of Touryou do about the cheeky rookies’ secret plan!?

Page 19

Nerima : Under the goal, this Nerima Yoichi is number one...!!
Nerima : I’ll block all your shots!!!

Shiba : ... alright, Ookado?
Shiba : Let’s do it from the start.

Haruyoshi : Alright!!

Left : Blazing eyes!! Betting his whole future on it, it’s Haruyoshi’s challenge!!
