Page 07

Kasamatsu : Nhaaa, It’s a mess already!!
Onihei : Fu... It may seem incomplete or whatever, but
Onihei : anyway, the surprise plan starts from now.
Onihei : This is just like the usual Deimon, huh?

Kid : The usual
Kid : Deimon...?
Kid : This might be
Kid : a little different than that...

Toganou : The guys from Teikoku are already all coming
Juumonji : It’s just like when they picked it up
Juumonji : After that onside kick...!

Hera : Didn’t I tell you!
Hera : With all our members’ super speed
Hera : It’s speed football!

Kurita : ... I don’t
Kurita : have the speed to go and pick up the ball.
Kurita : That’s why I’ll become a wall of power

Kurita : Funnuraba!!

Page 10

Suzuna : Yaaaa!

Takami : Deimon... didn’t use any surprise plans against the weaker
Takami : Yuuhi or Dokubari.
Takami : It’s not like they’re trying surprise plans because they like it.
Takami : It’s just a gamble in order for a rookie to win against a champion.
Mamori : No, I think it’s also because he likes it too...
Chibi Hiruma (left and right) : I love trick plays!

Kid : Despite that
Kid : This gamble happened a bit too fast, huh...
Kid : They went with it even though it was incomplete
Kid : That Chris Cross just now...

Kid : They don’t have any other ways to attack.
Kid : In front of the supermen
Kid : Yamato and Taka
Kid : Both passes and runs are sealed...!

Aki : Alright, I got the ball!
Aki : At this rate...

Mizumachi : Nice, disciples!

Juumonji : How’s that?
Juumonji : It feels like Kakei, Banba and Mizumachi
Juumonji : Are coming at you at the same time.

Kuroki : The most important thing in the line is cooperation?

Toganou : If it’s about cooperating
Toganou : Then we’re three here.
Toganou : We’ve been hanging out together for so long we get almost tired of each other’s face...!!

Page 13

Taki : Ahaha! Messieurs the three brothers...
Sena : They made the ball
Sena : Fumble...!

3bros : Alright!!

Erito : Don’t hang out with useless trashes.
Erito : They’re guys that are sure to drop high school midway no matter what.

Page 14

Hiruma : Really~ nice, fucking three brothers!

Announcer : Hiruma picked it up
Announcer : It’s Deimon’s ball once more!
Harao : It’s... chaos...

Doburoku : In such a rough situation
Doburoku : Deimon must find the light somehow.
Doburoku : If...
Doburoku : If we don’t find something...

Monta : Here, Hiruma-senpai!
Monta : A long pass MAX now!!

Page 15

Monta : Mukya... It’s better that way!
Monta : It’s free there, Hiruma-senpai!
Monta : Hey, pass!

Page 16

Narration : Usually, in American football
Narration : You carefully decide of the pass courses before the play

Narration : But, in the middle of chaos
Narration : A pass that wasn’t decided

Narration : This messy play gave birth to
Narration : an unexpected

Ikkyuu : coming!!

Page 17

Ikkyuu : Go, paaaass, huh??
Ikkyuu : Why are you stopping, damn it!

Page 18

Takami : He can’t throw it now!

Takami : Achilles picked it up once
Takami : Rule book’s 7th edition, chapter 3, article 2
Takami : You can’t throw a pass after the ball’s possession has switched...!

Announcer : And with Yamato’s tackle
Announcer : Deimon
Announcer : lost two yards!!

Taka : ... Persisting
Taka : to that extent...

Page 19

Taka : Raimon
Taka : If he had thrown
Taka : that pass just now
Taka : Would you have caught it?


(T/N : I couldn’t quite translate the pun here, the verb nebaru, in Japanese, can either mean “to persist”, or “to be sticky” which is the source of Monta’s confusion and the sticky noodle’s picture)
Monta : Sticky...?
Monta : What is sticky??
Monta : He didn’t even see me as an opponent since the beginning, damn it.
Monta : What the hell is he asking me now, that Taka guy
Monta : Mukyyyya, I don’t understand at all. But it’s not time to be confused, if you want me to say something then I’ll say it...!

Page 20

Monta : Yeah, of course!
Monta : With Hiruma-senpai’s low Devil Laser Bullet and
Monta : my best catch MAX...

Monta : kkyaaaa!?

Hiruma : Kekeke, don’t leak too much information, fucking money

Someone : Teikoku Alexanders
Someone : Time-out!

Sena : Eh...??

3rd stringer : We... Teikoku using a time-out...
4th stringer : Isn’t it the first time in the tournament...?
5th string - 4th string - 3

Page 21

Hera : What’s wrong, Taka?
Hera : All of a sudden...
Taka : Raimon
Taka : Tarou

Taka : Ever since I began playing American Football
Taka : It’s the first time.
Taka : If that pass had been thrown just now
Taka : I would have lost the confrontation.

Karin : Eh...!?
Aki : Haha, what the heck
Aki : Taka, your height, your speed
Aki : Aren’t you superior to Monta in every level?

Hiruma : Kekeke
Hiruma : There’s an opportunity for the win.
Hiruma : It’s a really small one, though...!
Hiruma : we’re looking like fucking garbage already

Page 22

Hiruma : It’s a super long pass
Hiruma : I’ll just keep throwing them like an idiot.

Taka : If Hiruma makes a lot of
Taka : Super long passes after that

Taka : This match
Taka : Something that never happened in the history of the top, Teikoku, could awaken.
Taka : We should get ready, even if it’s only a possibility.

Yamato : Then the Teikoku Alexanders will go all-out
Yamato : And crush the Deimon Devilbats...!
Middle text : The tactician Hiruma’s belief that he can mislead the genius Taka...!

Hiruma : Kill...
Hiruma : Within ten minutes...!!
