Soul Eater 41

This is the first chapter of a three-part arc titled "The Clown". Get the raw at the Shonen Gangan Scan Dump thread.

Note: I have fixed the spelling of Ox's partner's name to "Harvar."

Blair interjects "nya" into all of her sentences, but that doesn't come across in English too well...

あいつが受けたがりそうな授業だもんな
Soul: It's seems like a lesson he wanted to take

Maka: Ma'am, I'll take this lesson

は～い
Receptionist: Alright

負けず嫌いだな．．．
Soul: She hates to give up...

Pg. 7

こんなキモイヘアスタイルの奴と一緒に外を歩くのはありえないと．．．
Ox: There's no way she'd go outside with someone with this kind of creepy hairstyle...

もう誘っちまえよ
Kiriku: Just invite her

何ですと!?
Ox: What!?

だから切っちまえよ 変だぜそれ誰が見たって．．．
Kiriku: Then cut it. It's weird to look at...

確かに個性的な頭かもしれません 大半の人は変だというでしょう
Ox: Surely I probably have a unique head, but you can say half of all people are weird

わざわざ早起きをし 毎日剃りあげてまで維持する価値がこの髪型にあるのか
疑問に思うかもしれないー．．． キリクの言うとおり全部切ってしまうのはたやすい
Ox: The maintenance of this hairstyle does carry a question of worth with waking up especially early, shaving every day... Just like you say, it would be easy to just cut it all off

しかし愛する女性に「キモイ」と言われようと．．．
Ox: However, if "creepy" is said to a loved girl...

この二本の柱は決して折る事はできない!!
Ox: These two pillars will never be able to break!!

Pg. 8

愛するものを救う知性と
Ox: With the intelligence to rescue loved things

護る力ー．．．
Ox: And the power to protect...

この二本の柱こそが!!
Ox: These two pillars!!

僕をつき動かすいかずちなのです!!
Ox: I will stir up thunder!!

剃るなんてもってのほか!!
Ox: I'll do something other than shave!!

キムが振り向いてくれないのはキモイからじゃない!! 逆にこの柱の研きが足らないからです!
Ox: Because isn't it creepy if Kim couldn't turn around on this!! On the contrary, it's not enough to just polish these pillars!!

ウンウン
Harvar: Yeah yeah

オックス．．．
Kiriku: Ox...

お前熱いな
Kiriku: You're heated up, aren't you

Pg. 12

蒸気がすげェな．．．
Liz: So much steam...

ボゲアー
Patty: Bleh

この工場今は稼動してないんだろ?
Kid: This factory is out of operation right now, right?

うん 6年前以降人の出入りもないはずよ
Maka: Yeah, and it seems like nobody's come or gone since 6 years ago

なのにこの蒸気と稼慟音ー．．．
Soul: Even though there's steam and machine sounds...

Pg. 13

マカ何か感じるか?
Kid: Maka, do you feel anything?

まだなんとも．．．
Maka: Not yet...

とりあえず中に入りましょ
Maka: Let's start with going inside

ま
Kid: Wa-

Pg. 14

待てッ!
Kid: Wait!

なーに?どうしたの?
Maka: Whaat? What's wrong?

待てと言っている!!
Kid: I'm saying wait!!

だから何よ　もう
Maka: Then what, geez

お前らどこから入るうとしているのだ?
Kid: Where are you guys planning on entering from?

どこって あそこから
Maka: Where, from over there

ふざけるな
Kid: Don't kid around

Pg. 15

あれのどこが入り口だ あれはただの吹き抜けだ
Kid: How is that an entrance. That's just a vent

知らないわよ
Maka: I don't know

入れそうな所たくさんあるんだしテキトーでいいじゃない
Kid: There are many places that look like entrances, so you have to find an appropriate one

ならば君たちは先に行っててくれ 俺たちは正式な入り口から入るコトにする
Kid: In that case, we'll go ahead for you. We'll find the proper entrance to enter through

あ～い 行こソウル．．．
Maka: Whatever, let's go Soul...

リズパティ 行くぞ
Kid: Liz, Patty, let's go

先に生かせて危なくないか?
Liz: Isn't it dangerous to go ahead?

今回はブーたんがついてるから 大丈夫よー♪
Blair: This time Bu-tan is coming along, so it's alright

[TN: Blair refers to herself as Bu-tan]

．．．．．． ．．．．．．
Liz: ...... ......

Pg. 16

お前たちは泉に小銭を投げこんだ
Nizuheg: You're all tossing coins into a fountain


何を願う? 何が欲しい?
Nizuheg: What do you wish for? What do you want?

ここはすばらしい場所 怖いくらいに
Nizuiheg: This is a wonderful place, in a frightening and gloomy way

Pg. 17

．．．．．．
Kid: ......

オイキッド．．．
Liz: Hey, Kid...

いくら歩き回ってもお前の考えてる様な入り口はないって．．．
Liz: No matter how much we walk around, I'm saying there isn't going to be your kind of entrance...

あきらめてマカたちを早く追わないと
Liz: Just give up and hurry and catch up with Maka and Soul

ハァ
Kid: Huff

ハァ
Kid: Huff

こうも出口の見つからない道を歩いていると 不安になって来る
Kid: If we keep walking on a road with no exit to be found, I'm going to become anxious

出口って入り口にも入ってないじゃん
Patty: Exit, you can't even go through an entrance

的確にうるさいぞ
Kid: You're being awfully noisy

Pg. 18

人は困難なカベにぶち当たると 何か落ち度はなかったか過去を振り返るものだ
Kid: When people slam into a wall of distress, you start to turn back to the past and question whether there were any errors

トイレットペーパーの端は三角に折ったか? 額縁は曲がっていなかったか．．． ロウソクの高さをみなそろえたか．．．ちゃんとそろえたのか．．．そろっていたのか．．．
Kid: Did I fold the end of the toilet paper into a triangle? Was the picture frame not crooked... Are the heights of the candles all lined up... Was it lined up... Were they all together...

それえてなかったかもしれない．．．
Kid: They probably weren't lined up...

曲がっていたかもしれない
Kid: It's probably crooked

折ってなかったかもしれない．．．
Kid: It probably wasn't folded

勘弁してくれよ
Liz: Give me a break

すこー
Patty: Score

ああ～～～ 自信がなくなって来たぞ
Kid: Ahhhh, I'm beginning to lose my self-confidence

どうする．．．どうする．．．
Kid: What do I do... what do I do...

大丈夫だって
Liz: I'm saying it's fine

いつだってお前はちゃんとできてるよ また「かも」って．．．
Liz: You can do it anytime. Saying "probably" again...

「かも」を忘れたら大きな間違いのもとだ
Kid: If I forget "probably," the base becomes a huge mistake

帰って確かめて来る．．．
Kid: I'm going back to confirm...

ちょっと待って．．．!!
Liz: Wait a minute...!!

帰るな!!
Liz: Don't go back!!

Pg. 19

マカとソウルはどうするんだ あとブレアも
Liz: What about Maka and Soul? And then Blair too

この迷いを振り払わなけれずならないのだ 無念．．．
Kid: If I can't shake off this doubt, I can't help it. I'd regret it...

二人ともあの中で戦ってるかもしれないんだぞ
Liz: The two of them are probably fighting in there

!!
Liz: !!

Pg. 20

Pg. 21

Pg. 22

あ．．． ああ．．．
Liz: Ah... Ahhh...

し!しー いいから黙ってなさい
Liz: Shh! Shhh, it's fine, be quiet

?
Kid: ?

どうした二人とも
Kid: What's wrong, you two

まァ まァ まァ
Liz: Well well well

な．．．何だ?
Kid: Wha... What?

ささー帰ろうか
Liz: Come on, shall we go back?

もごもご
Patty: *mumble*

Pg. 23

メーターの目盛りは全部止まったまま．．．
Maka: The meter's scales are all stopped...

なのにあの蒸気は何なんだろ．．．
Maka: But then what's with the steam...

ニャニャニャニャニャーニャニャニャー
Blair: Nyanyanyanyanyaanyanyanyaa

マカまだ何も感じないのか?
Soul: Maka, you still don't feel anything

特に何もないよ
Maka: There isn't anything

う～ん．．．
Maka: Hmmm...

Pg. 24

!!
Maka: !!

なッ!?
Maka: Wha!?

Pg. 25

ダチチチチチ
Nizuheg: Dachichichichichi

パンパンプキンパンップキン
Blair: Pump Pumpkin Pumpkin

おうおうあー
Nizuheg: Woooaaahhh

Pg. 26

にゃめにゃいでね
Blair: Don't make light of me

やっと現れたわねここは立ち入り禁止よ
Maka: So you finally came out. This place is off limits

この工場で何やっているの?
Maka: What are you doing in this factory?

ダッチチチチ
Nizuheg: Dacchichichichi

鬼神様は復活した
Nizuheg: Kishin-sama was revived

このトキを待っていたのだ
Nizuheg: I've been waiting for this time

Pg. 27

人は皆迷い人よ
Nizuheg: Everybody is doubtful

鬼神様は迷いを払う一筋の光 俺は「さまよえるオランダ人」狂気の虜人
Nizuheg: Kishin-sama will wipe out all the doubtful with a single light. I am the "Wandering Dutchman," a prisoner of madness

あなた鬼神の手先!?
Maka: You're a subordinate of Kishin?

この授業当たりだわ こいつなら鬼神の居場所を知っているかも
Maka: This was the right lesson to take. With this guy I might be able to learn the location of Kishin

この工場は狂気のゆりかご
Nizuheg: This factory is the cradle of madness

そして「道化師」は産声をあげた
Nizuheg: and then "the Clown" will raise his first cry

人に自由を与える者よ．．．
Nizuheg: The one who will give people their freedom...

Pg. 28

でわでわ死武専のご両人ー．．．
Nizuheg: Now then, both of you from Shibusen

待て!!
Maka: Wait!!

あんた鬼神の場所知っているのね!!
Maka: You know the location of Kishin, don't you!!

この工場の生み出す恐怖をご堪能あれ
Nizuheg: The terror brought out by this factory is to great satisfaction

うん!
?: Yeah!

マカ!
Soul: Maka!

Pg. 29

魔女狩り!!
Maka: Witch Hunter!!

こいつ．．．退魔の波高を．．．
Maka: This guy... the height of the anti-demon wave...

まだまだまだまだ かんでかんでか～み～く～だけェ～!! ホゥヤェホー
Nizuheg: Ah ah ah, with pipes with pipes, crunch!! Hooyahoo

ハァアアア
Maka: Ahhhhhhhhh

Pg. 30

鎌威断ち!!!!
Maka: Whirlwind cut!!!!

んぐりやうアア
Nizuheg: Guaaaaah

ニャニャ!?
Blair: Nyanya!?

ちょっとあぶニャい
Blair: Little dangerous

どうだ!! 魔女狩りで鎌に集めた「魂の波長」を回転して解き放つ!!
Soul: How's that!! With the Witch Hunter, the scythe collects the "soul wavelengths," turns it around and releases it!!

無差別アタックだからチームでは向いてない技だ
Soul: It's an indiscriminate attack, so it's not a technique suited for teams

Pg. 31

ちょっと休憩．．．
Maka: Just a little break...

．．．．．．
Nizuheg: ......

退魔の波長か．．．やりにくいな．．．
Nizuheg: Anti-demon wavelength... Makes it difficult

Pg. 32

おもしろそうなのが入ってきたね
?: Looks like something interesting has entered

これはだめだ
Nizuheg: This is no good

「あいつ」のようにうまくとりこめないぞ
Nizuheg: You can't capture something like "that" easily

そう
?: Really

いいわ僕が行く あなたはおもしろおかしく工場を動かしといて
?: It's fine, I'm going. You keep operating this amusing and strange factory

オ．．． オイオイ
Nizuheg: He... Hey hey

道を外さない人間はいないわ
?: There's no person whom I'll allow to leave the way

Pg. 33

うう．．．
Maka: Ugh...

大丈夫かマカ．．．
Soul: You okay, Maka...

どこ行った?全然出てこねェ．．． 奴の魂の波長を感じないのか?マカ．．．
Soul: Where'd he go? He isn't coming out at all... Can you not feel his soul wavelength? Maka...

見えるには見えてるんだけどなんだかぼやけで? この蒸気に隠れてるみたいなの．．．
Maka: I can see it if he shows, but it's somewhat dim? It seems like he's hiding in the steam...

何だ?違うのが出てきたぞ．．．
Soul: What? Something else is coming out...

Pg. 34

なんだこいつ!?どういう事ー．．．
Maka: What is this!? What's going on...

僕は道化師．．．人を狂気に誘う者
Clown: I am the clown... the one who invites people into madness

鬼神阿修羅と同じ波長ー．．．!!?
Maka: The same wavelength as the Kishin Asura...!!?
