Eyeshield 21 223

Sometimes I just hate my poor japanese and english skills, when there are the kind of speeches like in this chapter and that I always think I could have done better. Oh well, I'll improve with practice (I hope^^)

But first, before the actual translation, a word from our sponsor.



Yes, Fucking-Manga is still alive, and will come back from its hibernation ! But we're in dire needs of editors/cleaners (and a proofer might be good too, translators are always welcome, and... kunno didn't say if we needed a typesetter but you can always ask), so if you'd like to help us release a bunch of HQ chapters of ES21 really fast, come to http://www.fucking-manga.org/ !

And now for the actual translation. No special thanks to anyone this time, despite the fact it was hard to read, it wasn't that hard to understand. Credit if you use, as always :amuse

Enjoy :yaha

Suzuna : defeat Shin-kun
Kurita : With brute strength…!??

Right : …… Impossiiiible !?

Page 03

Hiruma : We don’t have time.
Hiruma : The second half will start soon.
Hiruma : We won’t say it twice so open your ears and listen well.

Mamori : Look at this, Sena.
Mamori : This is Shin-kun’s top speed.
Mamori : If it was run on 40 yards,
Mamori : It would amount to about 4.2 seconds.

Kurita : 4.2 seconds ?
Kurita : That’s exactly the same as Sena-kun.
Yukimitsu : That’s true.
Yukimitsu : Because it’s impossible for human legs to go beyond that…

Monta : Alright !
Monta : It means that you’re not losing !!

Hiruma : That is why you are losing.

Page 04

Hiruma : Shin, with the strength of one arm
Hiruma : plus this super acceleration,
Hiruma : Unleashes a Trident Tackle at an impossible range.
Hiruma : You felt the blow so you should be the first to know.

Doburoku : If the speed is the same,
Doburoku : His long range will always make him win.
Doburoku : That’s tactical common sense.

Hiruma : But then
Hiruma : He has no choice but to use an arm.

Hiruma : Just before his trident tackle
Hiruma : Shin makes a super acceleration.
Hiruma : Conversely, make a super acceleration of your own
Hiruma : And dive in while the spear is sheathed !

Page 05

Hiruma : It’s a showdown of fists.
Hiruma : You have to

Kuroki : To attack that Shin with brute strength…!

Yukimitsu : Shin’s benchpress record is…
Suzuna : Wah, 140 kg ! (Note : 310 lbs)
Toganou : Sena, what is yours ?

Sena : Fo… 40 kg ! (Note : 88 lbs)
KurokiToganou : It’s just impossible after all !!

Kurita : B-b-b-but jostling isn’t only about physical strength !
Kurita : Your weight is also important !

Yukimitsu : Shin is incredibly muscular but… He’s quite slim.
Suzuna : 71 kg. (156 lbs)
Yukimitsu : He’s not that heavy.
Toganou : Sena, how much do you weigh ?

Sena : Fo… 48 kg ! (105 lbs)
KurokiToganou : It’s just impossible after all !!

Page 07

Sena : …How can I say
Sena : It’s a weird feeling.

Sena : Such things as fighting… Although I was running errands
Sena : In fear of being hit if I disobeyed
Sena : With this same running,
Sena : He was saying that
Sena : I would be going to throw myself in a fight with Shin…

Monta : What are you saying, Sena.

Monta : Up until now,
Monta : Didn’t you always throw yourself in fights ?

Monta : If you kept winning against all those supermen
Monta : Wasn’t it to come here ?
Monta : Where the promised decisive battle takes place,
Monta : Isn’t it here…?!

Page 08-09

Sena : That’s right.
Sena : Up until now I’ve fought with all those guys.

Sena : With the help of everyone
Sena : With various techniques… Various feelings…
Sena : Little by little
Sena : I was becoming stronger.

Sena : I wanted to be stronger
Sena : Because I wanted the lie to become a reality.

Sena : It’s the same for Shin-san.
Sena : He fought with different players
Sena : And rapidly became stronger
Sena : He will be throwing everything in this fight.

Sena : Honestly I can’t say I know a way to win this fight
Sena : But…

Shougun : Among all of you

Shougun : The guys who skipped at least once
Shougun : The hellish special training of Oujou in order to rest or something else.
Shougun : Raise your hand.

Ikari’s sign : Spent two days under house arrest

Sakuraba : Eeeh, Takami-san ??
Takami : During my first year of junior high.

Shin : Perhaps… The only one that never took a day of rest is
Shin : Ootawara-san.

Ootawara : Ba ha ha ! Is that so ?
Ootawara : That’s because idiots don’t catch colds !
Sakuraba : Then, Shin-san…
Takami : Once, he destroyed an automatic turnstile while he was going to take the subway. (Note : I’m hardly sure of what Takami is saying right there, since it’s just written too small for my old age^^ I’ll check when we have a better version of the raw)

Shougun : Well then the 46 guys you are
Shougun : All have one thing in common.

Shougun : That is
Shougun : That right now you are still there.

Shougun : The dream that the strongest Oujou White Knights in history continued to have.
Shougun : Now you are standing there.

Shougun : Out of the 104 that joined the club
Shougun : 46 persons sharing bonds remained as the elite.

Shougun : We will put an end at
Shougun : The strongest offensive team
Shougun : The Deimon Devilbats…!!

Announcer : The invincible Shin-kun is protecting him with his lead block
Announcer : They continue to run !!

Someone : Woooh, here it comes !
Someone : Shin VS Sena !!

Doburoku : Dive into Shin’s range (Note : there’s an illegible kanji so it’s just my guess Oo)
Doburoku : It’s a contest of timing and acceleration strength…!

Sena : I am… not like Shin-san or Riku
Sena : I don’t have a technique like the Rodeo Drive to do a sudden acceleration.

Sena : So I must
Sena : Concentrate all I have on my legs

Sena : Not yet
Sena : Concentrate
Sena : Concentrate…………!!

Shin : Something he acquired through practice
