Hatter: How troublesome, after all your power is quite annoying.
Manji: Gah...
text (karu): He's alive
03
Hatter: What, you're still alive? You're a though one.
Karu: Hatter
Karu: You've always hated it when people destroyed what you made, right?
Hatter: Reminiscing? Well, yes. I'm an inventor, there's love in the things I made.
Karu: Is that so. But they are good creations In fact they burn well.
sfx: bwoosh Hatter: Wha
04
Hatter: Could it be... that shot you fired earlier...
Hatter: How horrible!
Karu: Can you hear me, Akainu?
sfx: nod
Karu: He's concious... I hope you're not planning to die like that? Saying you don't need my power in that state you're in?
Manji: Shut...up... sfx: huff huff
05
Karu: Cut loose the shadow, you can do that much, right?
Karu: Die like this or let me take your pain so we can kill Hatter and save this town.
Karu: Choose It's your move.
sfx: scratch
bubbles: Damn it! Damn it!
text: Choose
06
Manji: Shit...
Manji: Guaaaaahhhh
07
sfx: splosh
sfx: shuff
Hatter: No...
Karu: Too late!
08
Manji: I'll crush you.
09
Manji: I won't fall for the same trick!
text: Be quiet and listen, I have an idea.
text: The amont of things in this room creates a lot of shadow, it's his advantage. Hide a tree in the forest, hide a thing in a mess...
text: Break the ceiling down.
10
Hatter: Huh? What?!
text: It's a classic trick Hide yourself in the falling debris.
Hatter: Where are you?
Hatter: The debris are blocking my shadows...

Hatter: I'll do anything, you won't have to get harmed, I promise. I'll give all the money or food you want!
15
Manji: Who are you talking to, damn junkie?
Manji: What did you do? They desperately moved on, without anyone knowing. I'll do whatever I want to do. text: Even if I hate it, I owe him.
16
Manji: We'll crush Alice, I'm with Cards!
Karu: So it is. How about you be nice and answer my questions? Manji: Can you walk already?!
Karu: Alice's present location, we believe it might be at Cross Oak, but...
Manji: Hey!
Hatter: You still want to destroy it?
Hatter: Do you realise? That she's like a mother, the mother of all Toys?
17
Hatter: If Alice dies, so will you.
Karu: Indeed... After all we weren't supposed to even exist.
18
Karu: Please die with us.
Hatter: D...don't act so cool... Show off...! Aren't you scared of disappearing? That man gave us life you know!! You'd kill your parent? Traitor!
Hatter: You want to know where Alice is? Strange, isn't it? Not to remember where you were born?
Manji: Hey... Karu: I don't remember, it's like it's all foggy in my head.
Hatter: Oh, I see, I guess your core was programmed that way.
19
Hatter: We were created as 'just replicas'.
Karu: Gah!
20
bubbles: What's this... My head feels hot... Karu: I... Ah...! text: My core!
Manji: You! What did you do?! Hatter: Uh - I don't know!
Manji: Haah? Hatter: I just said what he told me to say... You damn liar, huuuh?!
Hatter: It- it's true... Dolls cannot disobey him. That's how Toys are, they are made to thinks of him as absolute. Karu... Karu and the others are special, they are chosen.
Manji: Chosen?
21
Karu: I... remember...
Karu: Alice is at Cross Oak.
text: I remembered, as if the fog in my head suddenly disappeared. Something the Hatter said must have been a keyword to my core.
Karu: Why now...?
22
people: Mayor!! We heard a loud noise?! Are you alright?
people: What's this... where's the mayor?
sfx: grin
sfx: bublub
Manji: Ha? He got away! people: Who are you? Karu: This is bad
Karu: we gotta run. Manji: Haah?
Manji: This again?! people: They're escaping! sfx; waah! After them!
23
sfx: throbthrob Hatter: Damn... Karu's power and that Akainu... a strong combo.
text: This finally became a city to my taste... Hatter: Ah, I'll have to start over...
text: After all, that person entrusted this place to me, I can't abandon it. I failed to kill Akainu but... the rest went as he ordered.
Hatter: I wonder... if he will praise me.
Hatter: Who's there?
??: Eh... Mayor?
Hatter: Ah, yes... good to see you here... Could you help me? I'm a little tired...
24
Hatter: Ah?
Hatter: Gah! Ahh!!
AAA: Good work. I've been watching you. It's been amusing.
Hatter: Y... you are...!
Hatter: Ah A...Ah.
25
AAA: Your role has been played.
Hatter: Gi...
Hatter: I am... sorry... Next... time...I'll get him... ugh AAA: Hm? Oh, you mean Akainu? Don't worry.
AAA: All you had to do was meet him in this city.
26
Hatter: N-no way! I... did as... you told me... the rabbit... this town... I changed... them
AAA: Yes, thank you, you did well. I'm glad you followed my orders so well. Even though I have my doubts about the way you dress like me.
AAA: But I have no more use for you.
Hatter: Then... I'm... I was just a way to kill time
AAA: Killing time? How could that be?
27-28
AAA: From the start I had only one goal, fulfilling my dream.
sfx: shake shake Manji: What, an earthquake?
text: The world is shaking
AAA: Two left.
text: Whether it's the start or the end, the countdown has begun

Manji: Haaah?!
Card: 9 Twisted Tea Party
Manji: The hell are you doing?! Karu: Don't yell, my head... sfx: (sharp pain) Manji: Well duh!
Karu: Such pain, like my entire body is burnt.
Karu: Did this guy move around with these wounds...
Karu: I'll heal... soon... leave me if I slow you down... Manji: That's not the point!!
02
Karu: I'll need you to slay as many Toy as you can, I heal faster anyway. This way it'll be easier for both of us.
Manji: I didn't ask! Karu: Whatever. Then make sure I don't need to.
Manji: What's that, you damn baldy?! Karu: Listen up... we should do something about that rabbit before crowds gather here.
Manji: Dammit! Next time I'll kill you! Karu: Your annoyance is clear enough from your behaviour...
03
Manji: What's wrong? Karu: Don't you think it's strange?
Karu: This rabbit... I think it grew big as a side effect to refusal...
girl: What? Karu: and then went berserk and attacked people. Manji: What are you doing?
Karu: As I thought.
04
Manji: That's... Karu: A Toy's core. It was in pretty deep.
Manji: So it was a Toy? Karu: No. This was probably inserted on purpose. A core corrupts the brain, made him into an incomplete Toy.
girl: What's that... Karu: They're things made to kill people.
girl: T-then, without it, Ash would...
Karu: This is very complex and the reaction to it is heavy, it's not made for use on living beings.
05
Karu: It only acted as a Toy for one hour, that's when I noticed the similarity. Either way it was to late for him. His body couldn't stand the side effect.
girl: Oh... I see.
Manji: You noticed that?
Karu: I've seen many things ruined by failing to become a Toy.
Manji: Isn't that sad?
Karu: Is it?
06
Manji: Don't you feel anything? Karu: Like what
Manji: Does he really feel nothing?
Manji: Seems like a lonely guy to me.
people: Hey, it's dead. I'ts that rabbit.
Manji: The villagers are back.
guy: Aw, it's dead already!
07
people: Ah, yeah, it's dead, dead! It appeared so suddenly, and it's over? Ehh, dead already? Would've been nice if it ran about longer. There would've been more victims that way sfx: laughing
people: It was that girl's pet, right? It died! She must be happy! Ahaha, hilarious!
people: Ah man, this is fun! Yeah!
people: It's huge, how did she keep it? Disgusting! Cut it up! In pieces, mince it!
people: Did she kill it? Wow, her own pet! Mince up the owner too!
08
Karu :What's so funny?
Karu: What is this I'm so irritated...
Manji: Let's bury him.
sfx girl: nod
09
sfx Manji: hey! Karu: It's fine, I can walk.
sfx: hahaha
sfx: piririr Manji: What's that?
Karu: It's from Cards.
10
Zenri: Sup.
Zenri: Sorry for the sudden call. Karu: No, we were busy as well so I contacted you late.
Zenri: Is it done? Karu: This case is closed. But there should still be Toy so... Zenri: That so?
Zenri: In fact, we got some info that might be related to Alice.
Zenri: Diamond's vice captain saw a large number of Toy come out of Cross Oak.
11
Karu: Cross Oak? Isn't it just an empty forest... Is Alice there? Zenri: It's only a possibility. What'll you do?
Karu: I'll check of course. Please send someone from Diamond, to search Cross Oak. I'll go there once I'm done here. Tell them to retreat in case anything happens.
Zenri: And?
Karu: Something caught my interest I'd like to get some books.
Zenri: Alright, I'll send someone over. shirahime: Eh? A mission for Karucchi! I'll go!
Zenri: You just came back! Shirahime: I wanna gooo! sfx: Calm down, captain Shirahime!
Zenri: Well, the hime combo will come. Karu: So it seems.
12
Hatter: Hello
Hatter: Nice to meet you, Akainu.
Manji: Who are you?
13
Zenri: Akainu, is he safe?
Karu: For now... Zenri: Oh, did he do something again?
Zenri: Hehehe, stubborn guy huh. Karu: I wish he would learn his lesson but... Zenri: Can I talk to him?
Karu: Akainu, he wants to...
Karu: Akainu?
14
people: Mayor! Why are you out so late, mayor? Mayor!
Manji: You... sfx: irritated hatter: Sorry to make you wait. Shall we go?
Hatter: Isn't this a great town? Everyone follows me.
Manji: I didn't ask that! Will you tell me why this town is so freaky?
Hatter: How so? Manji: I followed you cause I thought you knew!
Hatter: Just kidding. I'm the mayor, of course I'd know.
15
Hatter: It's hallucinogen.
Manji: Huh? The livelihood of this town depends on one waterway. The drugs were dropped into the waterway, and being unable to purify it, everyone keeps getting it inside.
Hatter: They started to see things there weren't, their sense of right and wrong turned upside-down and the town itself became twisted.
Hatter: Nownow, don't get mad. I'll pour you some tea so we can talk at ease.
16-17
Hatter: Welcome to my party hall.
Hatter: Well? I made this. Surprising as it seems, I'm an inventor. I can make objects like these. Manji: I don't care! Do something about that waterway!
Hatter: There's no need. Manji: How so?
Hatter: Because I made that drug.
18
Hatter: Uh-oh
Manji: So it was you? I thought you were fishy with a face like that.
Hatter: Oh dear, judging by appearances? You don't look like you should speak. Manji: Shut up, it's better than your junkieface.
sfx: sting
Hatter: It finally reached your legs. Manji: Ah?
Hatter: You fell in the water, right? I'm surprised it took this long.
19
Hatter: Can't stand? Paralysis is the first symptom, you'll stay like this for a while. Too bad, since you came to destroy Toys.
Manji: How do you know that... Are you AAA?
Hatter: I prefer to know how the story unfolds.
Manji: Story? Hatter: What? You don't know a thing?
Hatter: The 'cards' soldiers who are after Alice, the story starts the other way around, how wonderful! Manji: What?
Hatter: First the Cheshire Cat, then the March hare,
Hatter: well, what's next? sfx: bang
20
Karu: Hatter...
Hatter: Hey there, long time no see, Karu.
Manji: Hatter? You know him? Hatter: From the past.
21
Hatter: I'm a doll. Aah, I invited him, please don't disturb us, Karu. I was ordered to kill Akainu.
Karu: By AAA?
Manji: Fine! Come at me! sfx: I'm gonna kill you! sfx: roaaah Karu:... the heck are you doing?
Manji: There's a drug in the water that caused my body to paralyse!
Karu: I see. Tell me later. Manji: Don't you get it?
Karu: What should I get? I noticed because you broke the glass. Don't struggle.
Hatter: Hmm...
22
Manji: Huh!
Karu: This again...
Manji: It doesn't hurt
Manji: What drug? I can stand just fine!
Karu: Your assumed willpower is quite a thing. Manji: They're my wounds. sfx; transfer and I'll kill you
Hatter: Oh, this'll be fun.
23
Hatter: You haven't met him yet, the previous mayor.
Manji: What?
Hatter: He's also my pact holder.
Mayor: Gah...
Manji: Bastard! Karu: Akainu, wait!
sfx: drip drip Hatter: I'll show you my power.
24
Manji: Hah?
25
Manji: Guh...
Karu: Get up! Manji: What the?
26
Hatter: Shadow doll With the pact holder's blood as medium I can assimilate with and control the shadow.
Manji: The shadow? Hatter: Indeed, just like this.
Manji: Can you do anything when as a shadow?
27
Hatter: You can defend yourself, how interesting. Seems if I give you a core you'd make a fine mock Toy.
Manji: Aah? Karu: So it was you, who put the core in that rabbit.
Manji: Really?
Hatter: Exactly. What a failure it was, dying right after becoming a Toy.
Manji: You asshole...
Hatter: Why so angry? I merely granted that rabbit's wish.
Hatter: He became admirable for the girl he loved.
28
Hatter: Like the March hare dancing a mad court dance.
Hatter: Despite his laughable end, it was interesting to see.
sfx : bsh bsh
29
Hatter: Rage makes your movements simple, you should watch out.
Karu: Ch
Hatter: Too bad my core is in my head, right?
sfx: bam
sfx: grab
30
Hatter: hat might have been close.
Hatter: It's unexpected for you to do such 'useless' things. I thought you only did what you know is sure to work.
31
Karu: I just figured I should widen my possibilities.
Hatter: You've really changed
Manji: You!
32
Hatter: See ya
Karu: Akainu!

text: Do you know the story of Wonderland? It all started with the curiosity of one girl She followed a white rabbit, and when she came out of the tunnel, she was there, in Wonderland.
She was made fun of by the grinning Cheshire Cat, met the Hatter and the rabbit at the mad tea party, the Queen of Hearts got angry with her, the cards soldiers chased after the girl
I started numbering the pages from page 1 because my raws are all double paged scans. (numbers are for single pages though)
notes on layout:
I leave an empty line between panels, different bubbles are marked by the start of a new line, and are just in the right reading order. sfx: soundeffects, small text/handwritten text within a bubble is italic. Getting this right consistently is hard xD
001
card: 8 - March Hare
Manji: So this is were you were hiding?
Manji: Tch It's fast
002
Manji: Gah
Manji: Why you...
rabbit: Hyuu Manji: I'll kill you!

Manji: Huh? Hey!
Manji: Also fast at running away huh.
003
girl: Ash...
girl: Why...
girl: Ash! Ash!
girl: Hehe, this is proof of deep love we hold nose to nose.
004
girl: It means 'I love you' rabbit: kyu
girl: Kyaaaa! Manji: Oh
girl: s-sory...!
Manji: Didn't the rabbit get back yet? You know where it could go? girl: No.
girl: That...
005
Manji: That rabbit was looking at it. girl: Ash did? Manji: What kind of book is it? I can't read this
Manji: What?
girl: It's about...witchcraft... it's a story about a witch who killed a hundred pretty girls and bathed in their blood to stay young forever...
Manji: girls' blood? Forever young? You don't think...
Manji: Is that a true story? girl: No... just a fairy tale.
Manji: Maybe, he does believe it.
girl: For me...?
006
Manji: I'm gonna kill it.
Manji: That's all. Later. girl: W-wait, please! It's better not to go out...
Manji: Hah? girl: Around 6 o'clock, Ash goes wild. Though it lasts only one hour...
007
girl: Normally, he's in his cage, but today...
Karu: 6 o'clock... Where's Akainu?
Karu: They told me to keep watch on him but he just disappears Does he want to cooperate?
sfx: annoyed
Karu: Calm down, I just need to focus on the TOY.
008
Hatter: Did you find that TOY already?
text: Find it quick
Hatter: Karu
009
Karu: AAA is... here?
Karu: What's...
010
Karu: That rabbit!
text: Until this time Karu: What's going on here?
girl: Ash! Karu: You?
girl: Please run! He'll be calm after an hour!
Karu: What do you mean? girl: He always goes berserk between 6 and 7. I didn't know he'd attack like this!
011
Karu: Just one hour? text: It seems its goal is to attack people though.
Karu: Could it be...
Karu: It's known that it's just one hour. You should go hide. girl: But...
Karu: It's not like you can do anything by being here.
Karu: Don't worry about this.
Karu: Hurry...
012
woman: Ahahah... Manji: Why are you laughing, stupid! Go and run! woman: Ah
Karu: Don't get hurt before we get to the TOY. It's enough to make sure to evacuate...
Manji: You again?Let me be!
Karu: You hypporcite. Are you trying to be cool? You're just drunk on your own strength.
Manji: I just don't like it.
Karu: Again...
013
Karu: this fuzzy feeling.
girl: Here, Ash!!
girl: I'll call him over!
girl: So please, kill him!
014
Manji: Yeah.
Manji: Ch, stay still!
Karu's thoughts: It's no use. Manji: Should trap it somewhere...! Karu's thoughts: Your opponent is an agile animal. Even Akainu would have trouble giving it a fatal wound.
Manji: It went into the clock tower! Can we? Karu's thoughts: Just wait till it's over. girl: No good! The porch on the other side is open! We need to close it first!
Karu's thoughts: It was enough to just evacuate the villagers.
015
Karu: Damn... Karu's thoughts: What am I doing?
thoughts: If we can close this gate, we can trap it.
Karu: Move...
016
Karu: Uh... Gua...
Manji: The hell?! girl: His ear! He's lost his balance now.
Manji: Shit, it's gonna run again! girl: Ash, no!!
017-018
Karu: Move!! Haaaaa!!
019
girl: He's trapped! girl: Come here, Ash!!
020
Manji: Sorry about this.
021 -
022
Manji: Right at 7 o'clock...
023
girl: Ash...
girl: Why did you do all that... It wouldn't heal my scars, it doesn't make me happy you idiot.
girl: I won't ever forgive you...
024
girl: I hate you...
025
Karu: Foolish...
Karu: ...hm.
Karu: Well, it'll heal.
026
Karu's thoughts: My left leg too?
Karu's thoughts: Seems I'll have to stay put for a bit. If I'm late, he'll be loud about it though.
Karu's thoughts: Oh but no one knows I'm up here.
Karu's thoughts: It's Manji. I'm sure he'll think the gate just happened to close.
Karu's thoughts: Cause he 'doesn't need' it. Karu: It hurts...
027
Manji: What're you doing, baldy?
028
Karu: Eh.
Manji: Did you think I wouldn't notice?
Karu: It hurts. Manji: Aah?
Manji: Who told me not to get needlessly hurt? Huh? Karu: Shut up.
029
Karu: I just didn't like it.
Manji: Ch.
Manji: Thanks.
Karu: What? Manji: Don't make me repeat it!! I said thanks!!
Manji: You take over pain as you please, it's annoying. Show some restraint.
030
text outside balloon: restraint... Karu: You're not one to talk. Manji: Aah?
Karu: Besides, you're persistent to refuse it. Manji: Of course.
Manji: I get hurt because I fight, I can't stand giving that to you.
Karu: Eh?
Manji: It feels bad to have someone else feel my pain. Karu: Didn't you say you don't need me?
Manji: What? Are you dumb? text: Let's go.
Karu's thoughts: What...
031
What's this...
032
Karu's thoughts: I heard... a sound
033
Karu's thoughts: What exactly that sound would bring along I didn't know yet.
Karu's thoughts: I didn't know... anything.
034
Manji: Huh? Did you say something?
Karu: Yeah. That's it. Manji: What?
Karu: If you can do as whatever you want, will you let me do as I please as well?
Manji: Uh, yeah, sure.
Manji: Wha?

Nito: What the?!
Nito: W-who is it...
Manji: Hey!
Manji: Where’s the doctor!
text: On this grey coloured soil the story will grow in scale.
033
Manji: Hah?
Manji: The same guns and clothes as forehead-brat. His colleagues?
Nito: Who are you? Why are you here?
Manji: Who cares about that! Get a doctor! This guy’ll die!
Nito: Eh?! Captain Karu?!
man: It’s the captain! man: Bastard! What did you do?!
Manji: Haah?!
Zenri: Okay, that’s enough.
Nito: Zenri-san...
Zenri: Everyone is to leave this room. I’ll handle this.
man: But... Zenri: Nito. Nito: Ah, yes.
Nito: Sorry, I’ll inform you later.
Zenri: Welcome to “CARDS”. Mr. Red Dog?
Manji: This guy... he looks suspicious...
034
Zenri: Well?
Manji: My ass!! I told you to get a doctor!!
Zenri: Ah, don’t worry. He’s special, it’ll heal soon enough. Manji: There’s no way a wound like that would!!
Nito: It’s fine... his breath has stabilized, it won’t be long before he wakes up.
Manji: Seriously?
Nito: Ah!
Manji: What’s happening here?!
Zenri: I have to thank you for bringing him back. So, what I want to know is how things turned out this way.
Manji: One way or another he transferred my pain into himself.
Nito/Zenri: Huh?
Manji: I said, the kid transferred the wound I got from a huge toy... Zenri: Wait a sec.
Zenri: He transferred your pain into himself?
035
Manji:Yeah, that’s what I said.
Zenri: How much do you know?
Manji: About forehead-brat? He came falling from above, talking about destroying TOYs or something. And his name’s Karu. He’s an expressionless kid who puts on airs, and it pisses me off that he looks down on me.
sfx Nito: Uwah.
Manji: Also... Nito: We understand, say no more. Zenri: In short he knows nothing at all.
Zenri: You explain it later, Nito. Nito: Please don’t try to escape the troublesome work.
Manji: What’s that?! Explain this properly! And, who are you people?! sfx nito: hahaha... Nito: Uhm... where should I start?
Manji: Tell me everything, dammit! Nito: Eep!
Zenri: You’ve become Karu’s contractor.
Manji: Huh? text: contractor?
Zenri: Calm down a bit and listen. And don’t be such a wuss, you. Nito: Yes...
Nito: You said he took away your pain, right? That means captain Karu uses his power to form a contract with you. Manji: Hah?
036
Nito: “Scapegoat”... a technique that allows one to transfer another’s pain through a blood contract.
Manji: Huh...
Nito: You may not believe this, but it’s the truth.
Nito: Didn’t you think it was strange? That someone else suddenly felt your pain?
Manji: So it’s because of a contract... text: But...
Manji: But he didn’t use the “Pain, pain, go away!” charm! text Karu: Go away!
Nito/Zenri: Eh?
Nito: It’s just... such childish trickery doesn’t work in real life. Manji: Shut up! How long are you gonna laugh, four-eyes?! sfx Zenri: Hehehe
Zenri: It’s fine as a method, but really believing in it? sfx Zenri: smirk Manji: Damn you!
Zenri: The Red Dog, huh? The rumours were considerably wrong.
Nito: Anyway, since you are his contractor, you may stay here a while. You’ll hear more details from captain Karu.
037
Karu: What a troublesome man you are.
Nito: “Scapegoat”... a technique that allows one to transfer another’s pain through a blood contract.
Manji: Why is there a contract?
Manji: Didn’t he just do that by himself?
Manji: Fine, I understand the stuff about this contract. But who are you guys and what are you doing here?
sfx Zenri: *turn* Nito: This guy...!
Nito: Uhm, yes, sorry for this late introduction. My name is Nito Flacks. The guy with glasses is Zenri.
Manji: I’m Manji. Nito: N-nice to meet you.
Nito: This is the headquarters of an organisation that exists to destroy TOY. We are all members of this group.
Manji: So there is a group like that... text: didn’t know that Nito: Because few even know about TOY
038
Nito: TOY are originally murdering toys created by a genius inventor.
Manji: Murdering toys... No wonder they’re dangerous.
Manji: That inventor was good. Nito: ... He’s a murderer. He has no name, so we call him AAA.
Nito: Because of him, TOY are scattered all over the world for three years. At first they were few in numbers, but as the numbers increase... the victims they make increase as well.
Nito: Somewhere in the world is “Alice”, the TOY factory. That’s where we need to strike to stop AAA. That’s our ultimate goal here at CARDS.
Nito: Uhm... did you follow me? Manji: In short you’re fighting for world peace, yeah? Nito: ... you could say so.
039
Nito: We’ve got only 52 people at CARDS, so we’re desperate to destroy TOY. Though we haven’t even found Alice yet.
Manji: So you’re short on people?
man: Sorry to disturb your talk! Zenri-san! Nito-san! A request for reinforcements has arrived from the team in White Town.
Zenri: Well. Can you go, Shirahime?
Shirahime: Sure!
Manji: When did she...
sfx: smile Shirahime: I’m Shirahime! Nice to meet you! It’s been a while since Karu-poo had a contractor!
Manji: Shit... surprised by a girl. text: have I weakened? Shirahime: Ah, Hime! They said we’re gonna help out! Hime: Ro...ger.
040
Nito: Okay, Himechiyon. This is a map to White Town, if you will. Be careful on the job, you two. Shirahime: Yes sir!
Manji: Are they gonna destroy TOYs?
Manji: My pain got...
Manji: Hey.
Nito: Ah, Manji-san, you should stay. We do not intend to involve outsiders...
Manji: Now is the time.
Manji: Hire me!
Nito: Eh? Manji: I’m a bodyguard, I have confidence in my skill. I can go with them as back-up.
Zenri: No way.
Manji: Hah? Why?
Zenri: I would not send someone who suddenly appeared away with my colleagues, even if he’s Karu’s contractor. I don’t trust you enough yet.
Zenri: I’ll let you stay here until Karu wakes up.
041
Nito: Wha!
Zenri: What could you want from us?
Manji: I’ve come this far with just one sword. Now this sword is my everything.
Manji: I’ll entrust this sword to you.
Zenri: Why?
Zenri: Are you telling me you trust me with your life?
Manji: I have to pay him back.
042
Zenri: Okay, you can go and earn my trust! Nito: Wait!
Nito: Is that really okay? He is, after all, a civilian. Shirahime: Let’s go! Manji: Yeah. Nito: Oh, geez! I’ll ask Himechiyon for help.
Zenri: Karu always had a weak constitution.
Zenri: He never got involved with others and has trouble expressing his emotions. Maybe he took away your pain because he wanted to grow closer.
Nito: Zenri-san... Zenri: Don’t say anything. Let him do what he wants...
Manji: move, idiot! ?: Eek!
Nito: I didn’t know that. Zenri: Me neither.
Nito: Could you do something about those on-the-spot lies you tell?! text: Captain Karu being weak... Zenri: He won’t betray us after telling him that.
Nito: Is this really okay? You called him the Red Dog, so he really is, right?
Nito: What a nice sword... he must have treasured it. Zenri: I wanted to see his resolve.
Zenri: And also... text: as far as I know, Karu never made a contract on his own before.
Karu: Why do I have to do such things?
043
Zenri (text): I’ve started to expect that something... will change.
text: White Town
Manji: Woah, it’s white. Shirahime: It seems the mayor here likes cleanliness and white. Himechiyon (text): Everything’s all white...
Shirahime: Your clothes are weird. The combination is funny. Manji: Whatever, dumbass. It’s better than something soaked with blood. So what will we do now?
Shirahime: Join up with Sattsun! Manji: Hey wait, what ‘Sattsun’?
Shirahime: A monkey!
Manji: Hah? Monkey? Shirahime: Ah! They’re here!
044
Manji: Why didn’t she call out sooner!
Manji: Gah!
Manji: I don’t have my sword! text: We’ll give you two anti-TOY guns.
Nito (text): There are 4 kinds of TOY in total mud dolls wood toys tin toys dolls
Manji: That’s mud!
text: The weakness of mud dolls is purity. Their main ingredient is mud, when pure water is mixed with them, they lose their form and melt.
text: These guns use bullets with pure water. Manji: Here!
Shirahime: You missed! Manji: Shut up! I’m warming up! Shirahime: Hya! Manji: You missed too!
Himechiyon: Let’s...hurry...
045
Manji: So this one’s against wood... Shirahime: It shoots fire! Because wood toys burn easily.
Manji: Woah!
Manji: Don’t get carried away, you damn toys!
Manji: Out of bullets? What now?
Manji: Screw this!!
Manji: Isn’t there something like a sword...
Manji: Ku...
Shirahime: Ah! Above!
Manji: Hah?
046
Sattsu: Allriiight! First bingo of the day!
Manji: Hah?
Sattsu: Who’s you? [TN: not a mistake, just trying to have him speak differently because he does so in Japanese too] https://mangahelpers.com/t/kinlyu/releases/18646[English] [Translation] Replica 1 by Kinlyu2009-12-29T14:39:57+00:00Kinlyuadmin@mangahelpers.comReplica v. 1 ch. 1

Manji: There’s a phantom killer at work in the neighbouring town, you should be careful. But not to worry, I’ll crush any danger.
mayor: Eh, you look rather like a killer... besides I already have bodyguards. bodyguard: Mayoooor! Is something wrong?
mayor: Ah, good timing, this person entered without invitation... bodyguard 1: Whaaaaat?! bodyguard 2: You’ve got guts to trespass in broad daylight.
Manji: Oh? You guys don’t look strong at all. sfx: grin
sfx:whisper woman: Th-that man, isn’t he the Red Dog?
Mayor: Hm? Red Dog? You mean that famous murderer-bodyguard?
Manji: Well, what do you think? I’m obviously stronger.
mayor: A dumb looking guy like him the rumoured Red Dog?
woman: But the Red Dog has a horizontal scar
woman: red hair and a black sword...
everyone: We’re sorryyyyyy!!!
Manji: What’s that so suddenly? mayor: We did not notice you’re the famous Red Dog. How impolite of us!
Manji: Red Dog? Who’s that?
009
mayor: We understand that you are strong, please, please let us live!
Manji: Hey. mayor: Eek!
mayor: Please don’t kill me...
mayor: Eek!
mayor: We’re safe... man: That was... scary... text: why did he come here?
Manji: Damn! Here too?
Manji: When they see my face, they get scared. What the hell did I do?!
Manji: Sure, I did kill a few and I get violent, but...
010
Manji: This won’t even kill my time.
Manji: And what will I do without money? Ah?
Manji: A Cat? sfx: stare
sfx cat: fear
Manji: Gah!
Manji: I’m bored! Won’t something happen...?
kid: Whee whee whee whee
Manji: So noisy... sfx: whee
Manji: He’s awfully happy... is something there?
011
Manji: What’s that?
Manji: It’s too small to see wel... is it a doll? How does it float? Oh. sfx kid: stare
Manji: You’re annoying, leave. sfx kid: Waaah!
Manji: I said leave, you dumbass!!
kid: Uh... Manji: What? Don’t think crying helps!
sfx: rumble
Manji: Right, I haven’t eaten anything lately... I have to find a job soon, or...
Manji: What’s that? Are you giving it to me? Hah! Don’t be a fool. sfx kid: nod sfx: rumble
Manji: Allright, I’ll take it! Be grateful! kid: Okay.
Manji: He’s laughing already. A kid’s thoughts are hard to get.
Manji: But a debt is a debt. Hey, kid, tell me what you want.
kid: Fun things! Manji: Going for difficult, huh? I’d want those too.
012
kid: You’re not having fun? Manji: Of course not! I’m about to die from boredom!
kid: Bored! Bored! Manji: Yeah.
Manji: This sucks!
sfx: crash kid: Ah.
Manji: Wha...
Karu: Oh, there’s someone underneath.
kid: He fell! Karu: No, I descended. [TN: Karu uses 降ってきた , which is used for the falling of rain and other natural stuff. The same kanji, with a different reading, means ‘to descend’.]
Manji: I don’t care which! Get off me!!
013
Manji: This guy... I didn’t sense him at all!
Karu: What are you doing? Manji: Who are you? Where’d you come from?
Karu: I have no reason to tell you.
Manji: You’re pretty calm. Karu: More importantly... sfx: he pushed it away!
Manji: Who is he?
Karu: Did you happen to see a toy?
Manji: Hah? A toy? Go to a store if you want one. Karu: To be exact it’s not a normal toy, but a moving doll.
Manji: A doll...?
Manji: Is something wrong with it? Karu: It’s okay if you didn’t see it.
Karu: I wanna know! Why does it bother you?
Karu: It does indeed. If you see a moving doll, run away before it kills you.
Manji: Hah! There’s no way I’d run. I’d rather cut it up instead. Karu: You?
014
Karu: Hmm...
Manji: What? Karu: It’s seems you’re very confident in your skill, but
Karu: it’s impossible, for you.
Manji: Why do I have to hear that from you?
Manji: Go away! We’re talking!
Manji: Haaah? You got hurt?
kid: Waaah... sniff... Karu: Bye. Manji: Don’t run now!
kid: Waaaaah... sniff... sob...
Karu: He’s noisy. Manji: It’s not my fault. Hey, show that hand, damn brat.
Manji: “Pain, pain, go away!”
115
Karu: What are you... Manji: Haah?! You don’t know? Pain can be moved away.
Karu: He ’s serious, huh...
Manji: How’s it, it doesn’t hurt anymore does it. sfx kid: nod Karu: Ah, so you’re a spiritualist.
Manji: Hm.
Karu: He’s not gonna say ‘The pain transferred to me’, is he? sfx karu: He’s really self-implying. Manji: The pain transferred to me... sfx manji: it kinda hurts...
Karu: Ridiculous! I’m shocked! Manji: Ha, awesome, huh? I was surprised too when I learned this.
Manji: I’m no longer indebted to you.
Manji: Ah, hey! We haven’t finished our talk yet! Karu: No, we did.
Karu: At best I’ll pray you don’t meet a “Toy” doll.
016
Manji: What’s with him... suddenly showing up, talking nonsense about toys or whatever... I’m bored.
Manji: I’m bored. I’m bored. I’m bored!
Karu: It’s impossible, for you.
Manji: Hah! Interesting!
Zenri: I see...
Zenri: So the phantom killer in that town was the work of TOY, huh? And? Did you destroy it?
Karu: Yes. Right now I’m in the next town, I’ve discovered a few TOYs here, but I think it’s a number I can handle alone.
Zenri: Oh, how reliable. I’ll leave it up to you, then. Karu: Yes. Zenri: Anything else to report?
Karu: I met the Red Dog.
Zenri: Woah, the Red Dog? How is he? If he’s good I’d like him to join... Karu: We don’t need him.
017
Karu: He’s just a dumb guy.
Karu: Again no clues about Alice...
Karu: I wonder what he’s planning. Killing time, and all...
Manji: Yo! Don’t run away, forehead-boy. sfx: huff huff
Karu: You...
Karu: They’re here...! Manji: Huh? What is?
Manji: Uwah!
018
Manji: Ha?! What’s that?
Manji: Hey! What’s happening?
Karu: Quick, stand up, please.
Manji: Aren’t those what you were looking for? Karu: Yes.
Karu: TOY. They’re dangerous toys.
019
Manji: I don’t care what exactly they are, but if they’re enemies... Karu: Don’t, I said....
Karu: He’s fast.
Manji: What the hell, they’re totally weak!
Karu: That may be true, but...
Manji: Wha... Karu: They regenerate after a normal attack.
020
Manji: It doesn’t...come back...
Karu: TOY is nothing ordinary, it can only be defeated with this gun. Manji: Damn! Karu: It’s futile.
Manji: Strength alone won’t do a thing.
Karu: If you understand then go and hide somewhere, you’re in the way;
Manji: Who’re you telling that? Don’t fool me.
Manji: Then I’ll ask you. If they’re toys, they must have something like a battery to make them move, right?
Karu: Why do you want to know? You think to hit them there? So you know the structure of TOY, huh?
Manji: Haaah! Uwah!
Manji: Oops. They really are a pain.
Karu: In the head they have a core.
Karu: That’s their drive. Their heart, so to speak.
Manji: Core... I see, that’s the battery.
021
Karu: It’s useless! It’s too small to aim for, it would surely be im...
Manji: You really are too narrowminded!!
Karu: It’s true! With a katana, you can’t...
Karu: It’s not regenerating...!
022
Karu: Is he cutting them? He’s aiming for the core without missing even one...
Manji: Get lost!!
023
Manji: What’re you standing there for, dumbass!
Manji: Whatta wuss!!
Manji: Is that gun your only merit? Huh? Karu: You’re good at finding the core position.
Manji: Haah? You said where it was, dude. Then, the exact middle would be good enough.
Karu: Does that make him... the Red Dog?
Karu: It seems you’re more useful than I thought, but don’t get too overconfident and don’t get in my way. Manji: You’d better not hold me back either, you irritating deadpan.
Karu: Only 5 left
Manji: Two left! That’s one!
Manji: Che! Some people have gathered there...
mayor: I wonder what those two are doing... text: dolls? woman: Ah... Aah! mayor: What’s wrong?
mayor: Wha-what is that...
024
Manji: What the heck?! It’s huge!
Manji: How long has it been there? Damn, I couldn’t feel it even though it’s so big! Karu: Your sense appears to be limited to living beings... these are TOYs.
Manji: TOYs? It looks so different.
Karu: It definitely is one, though it’s my first time to see one this big too. But other than the small ones, it has to be burned.
Manji: Ok, then hurry up and burn it! Karu: Are you stupid? If we burn this now things will become more serious.
Karu: First... Manji: Hey, mayor!! mayor: Y-yes?
Manji: Evacuate all the civilians, now!
mayor: Eh, huh? Manji: Don’t complain! Hurry up or I’ll kill you! mayor: Okay!!
Karu: It seems you understand... hey! Where are you running off to? Manji:You clean up that last TOY thing there.
Manji: That thing must have a core too, somewhere.
025
Karu: Does he think he can handle that alone...?
Manji: Don’t act so cocky!
kid: Bwaah! Manji: I’m fine. Run!
Karu: Did you want to save them so badly? Manji: Shut up! I didn’t. text: I gave it a handicap!
Karu: You’ll die.
026
Manji: Nice way to kill time.
Manji: Hey, what...
Manji: Damn forehead-brat!
Karu: All TOY are made the same way. It’s easier to see from the inside.
Karu: Can you see it? Above you!
027
Manji: Got it!
028
Manji: I did it.
Manji: Serves you right... though it annoys me that your hint did so much...
Karu: What a troublesome man you are.
Manji: Haah?! Karu: Don’t yell.
Manji: Che! text: Crap, I can’t move.
Manji: Hey... stay... away. I’ll transfer it to you!
Karu: Are you still going on about that? Manji: Shut up...! You... hey! Stay a...way...
Karu: Karu...
Karu: that’s my name. Manji: Like I care... Karu: You heard it the first time, right.
Manji: I said... stay away... you’ll die, stupid...!
Manji: Hot! What the...?
029
“scape goat”
Manji: Hah?
Manji: It doesn’t hurt...
Manji: No way!
Manji: Oh, hey!
Manji: Did you take it over from me?! Damn! That’s why you had to stay away!
030
Manji: You had a bike! I’m gonna borrow it! text: Whoah!! Stay there if you don’t want to die!!
Manji: Where is the closest doctor here!
Karu: To ‘cards’...
Manji: Huh?! Cards? What’s that? You need a doctor, dumbass!
Karu: At cards they... Manji: H- hey...
Manji: Gaah! I got it, I got it! Where is this ‘cards’?!
text: The deserted capital Deathtopia
Manji: Is it really here? I can’t sense any human life...
Karu: Rattel Park inDeathtopia.
Manji:Rattel Park? As in a park with threes?
text: Is is said that meetings are miracles caused by coincidence.
031
text: The answer lies in the story that will start to unfold soon.
text: The story slowly marks the passage of time.
text: The desolated and forgotten capital, Deathtopia. In this area where no one lives, words will flutter.
text: ‘Let’s make this our headquarters.’ This worn out empire that was once full of smiles...
