Not reserving for anyone until...
-First chapter is out.
-Schedule for releases has been established.
-Schedule is fairly consistent.
So this is free for use for anyone. Also;
No asking when the next one will be out, ask me for permission before using, no non-English scantlations before an English one is done, and I give preference to those who will check the script for accuracy before scantlating.
Just so I can fill my slice-of-life quota. I actually don't care for the art much, but the story looks like it could be interesting. As long as the text stays light I think I might stick with this. As long as it doesn't become Gintama text heavy.

What's the matter? I'm calling on you all....

Girl: Ichinosuke-kun, may I see your notes too?
Taiyou: S—sure.
Girl: No fair! I want to see them too!
007
{Well it's not as if it really hurts me if everyone thinks I like to study...}
{My parents...the teacher....even the other students don't know....}
{What I want to do as my future occupation...}
{When I was a kid there was one job I really admired....}
{A tough job to break into....}
{And that’s....}
{A secret.}
(Sfx- Gokuhh gulp)

{So the preparations for the testing in year two is...}
{Like this.}
Runa: Hehehe...
(Sfx- Bikuuhh poit)
Matsuki: Whoa dude. Anezaki's laughing to herself.
Creepy ain't it?
Taiyou: Maybe she finds her manga amusing?
Matsuki: Rather than get ready for the exams, she's drawing boring manga...
Man, otaku are just somethin' else.
Awwright...
(Sfx- Sawaaah grope)
(Sfx- Zowahh fwaah)
Girl: Kyahhh!
011
Girl: What the heck are you doing Matsuki?!
Matsuki: 'Kyah'? That's good. That's how girls should be.
So how about a quick panty flash...? Just once is cool right....?
(Sfx- Dokaaahhh Thuok)
Girl: Hmph!
(Sfx- Pikuuuhh throb)
Taiyou: Normally girls don't show them off...
{Whether they be girl or guy it'd be too embarrassing to be found out.}
{Of course I'm too embarrassed...}
Hm?
012
(Sfx- Gogogogogogogo rmmmmmble)
Taiyou: Waaah!!
(Sfx- Bikuuhh pooooit)
Taiyou: Sh—she's trying to set an expression for her characters...
013
{I'd die of embarrassment...}
{If everyone thought I was the same as Anezaki...}
Runa: Ni...
(Sfx- Bahhh fwaaap)
(Sfx- Kyorokyoro Spnnspppn)
(Sfx- Zahh zaahh sffft sfft)

Girl: Storyboard?!

(Sfx- Kachaaah clack)
(Sfx- Suuii sfft)
016
Taiyou: The day to draw this storyboard on manuscript paper has finally come..
{It's been nearly two years.}
{Of course I've planned up to 50 chapters for this story...}
{This work will be my first written contribution...}
{At this rate, it won't be long until the first chapter of a serialization begins...}
(Sfx- Garaaah clatter)
Taiyou: I've gotta get working on a story....
Or I'm gonna be canceled before I can even get started...
(Sfx- Zuzuhh sffft)
017
Taiyou: First I've gotta do that or I can't even get started.
Uuum..

(Sfx- Gazaaagooh sffft)
Taiyou: Hmm...
018
(Sfx- Veeeen sffft)
(Sfx- Haah)

(Sfx- Haah)
Taiyou: Ugh....
{I can't believe I forgot the manuscript paper...}
(Sfx- Fuaasaahh zziiip)
(Sfx- Pahhh fwap)
Taiyou: Ugh, hurry up with that register will ya?
(Sfx- Chiraa glance)
019
{A---Anezaki-san!!}
Taiyou: She sure is buying a lot of paper for painting..
(Sfx- Dosariii drooop0
{Painting paper?}
{AUGH!!}
020
Runa: Griiin.

Lady: Would the next customer please come up?
Taiyou: Y—yes! Right here!

(Sfx- Zuzaaaaaah sssssssssh)
Runa: Found you.
023
Taiyou: Anezaki-san...
(Sfx- gokuuuhh guuulp)
Runa: Heheheh...
Who would of thought that super student Ichinose-kun...
(Sfx- Jashaaan crash)
Runa: Would be interested in drawing manga...?
(Sfx- Guiii)
Taiyou: She totally knows!!
Runa: I wonder if anyone in class knows?
(Sfx- Ohohohoho)
Taiyou: Well no...since I didn't tell anyone.
Runa: So it's a secret huh?
Taiyou: Well...No! It isn't like that..!
024
Runa: Say Ichinose-kun...
Taiyou: Y—Yeah?
Runa: This is my manga submission this time....
Won't you read it?
(Sfx- Baaaan)
Taiyou: Eh!?
Runa: Obviously only having ten readers isn't a lot. I need more opinions than that!
You've got to be a bit experienced too.
025
Taiyou: Um...I'm not really in the position to give advice...
(Sfx- Puiiihh fwwwwp)
Runa: Oh, bring that with you to the Northern park in 10 minutes.
(Sfx- Pitaah tp)
Runa: Oh...
That's right!
You should bring your manga with you Ichinose-kun.
Even if' it's a storyboard.
I'll give you advice.
Taiyou: Wha..?!
{Bring my own manga?!}
{I don't wanna....}
Runa: If you don't show up...
I'll tell everyone...
Heh.
(Sfx- Zokuuhh throoob)
026
(Sfx- Zukyaaaah Ssssseehh)
(Sfx- Gasagosooh sfffhttt)
027
{I brought...}
{My storyboard....}
{I never thought the day I'd show it to someone would come this soon.}
Taiyou: Maaan...
Runa: Wait a minute.
You can't sigh before reading this.
Taiyou: Oh..um...sorry.
(Sfx- Bashihhh sffft)
Runa: Here you go.
Taiyou: Well then...
(Sfx- Gokuhh gulp)
028
{These drawings are awesome!}
{The lines underneath are a bit rough but they're still really awesome!}
{It seems to be a mystery story...}
{The idea and establishment of the story are pretty unique to say the least...}
Taiyou: …......
This—This is pretty good.
Runa: Eh?!
Taiyou: The main character solving the mystery is pretty convincing...
And the police investigation part of the story feels so realistic...
029
Runa: Kyaaah!!
(Sfx- baaahhh fwaaaah)
Runa: It was pretty tough coming up with the scenario this time aroun! But I worked hard at it!
It's awesome you were able to see it Ichinose-kun! Amazing!
Taiyou: Y—yeah...
{Wha...? What's with this atmosphere?}
030
Runa: I talked to the neighborhood policemen and went to see them often...
Taiyou: S—sounds like hard work.
Runa: Hey...look at this autopsy scene!
And then...
Then..
Taiyou: Huh, she talks a lot more than I thought.
Runa: Oh and this next page...
Taiyou: Anezaki-san, I was thinking about this here...
This panel with the culprit's face...couldn't you make it bigger?
Runa: Eh?!
031
Taiyou: See, I like how you can read the culprit's emotions, but if you made it bigger I think they would be clearer.
Oh, and it looks like here the main character should say a bit more....I think it'll convey his feelings a bit better.
Meanwhile on the flip side, I feel like the culprit should say less. His glare does more than enough to provoke a feeling of loathing...
And then...
(Sfx- Baahhh fwap)
Taiyou: Ah..!!
{I think I mighta said too much..!!}
032
Runa: Wait!!
I'll fix it right away!!
(Sfx- Kahh kahh sfft shfft)
(Sfx- Kahh kahh sffft sffft)
Taiyou: Heh..
Heheheheh...
Runa: What's so funny?
033
Taiyou: Anezaki-san, I can see you really love manga don't you?
(Sfx- Pitaaah tappp)
Runa: Oh my...
Let me toss those words back at you.
Because I can tell...you love it a lot too don't you, Ichinose-kun?
Manga that is...
034
Taiyou: Anezaki-san, if you were to become a Mangaka, what would you do?!
Runa: Hmm?!
Taiyou: At first when one starts a serialization they don't get any money and they're usually all alone.
And even if they do get serialized, if they don't remain popular they get canceled and only have empty pockets to show for it.
I mean loving manga is all well and good....
But I think it's a bit soon to start getting tied up with...
Runa: Hmph!
(Sfx- Suhhh sffft)
035
Runa: I absolutely WILL become one!
I'll become a manga artist!!
(Sfx- Basaaahh fwaaaap0
036
Runa: I'm never going to run away from that!
If I do it's all just a waste of time!
What will you do Ichinose-kun?
Will you become a mangaka? Or not?
Taiyou: I guess I can try....
I mean If I could enter a manga that wins a prize, and then get serialized I wouldn't mind that...
037
Runa: Huuuuh?!
Taiyou: Eh?!
Runa: Whatever.
Let me see your manga!
Once I read it I'll understand you well enough.
{Mine...?}
Taiyou: Ah! Well, it's not on a level that cane even begin to compare to your mystery story...
I'm not that great...
(Sfx- Iraaahh raaage)
038
Runa: Then...
Let me see your ass hole!!
(Sfx- Bikuuuhhh throoob)
Taiyou: A—aa---
Asshole?!
(Sfx- Zuruhhh draaag)
039
Runa: When you draw a manga....
You put everything about yourself into it.
How you think, how you feel, all of your experience is transferred as a page...a message you want to convey to others.
A work that you put everything on the line to create for others to read.
If you're going to be embarrassed about every little thing then...
You'll never draw a decent manga!!
Taiyou: Th—then, Anezaki-san, let me see your panties....
040
Runa: Panties..?
Huuuuh?
Taiyou: Ah...No...I'm sorry...I didn't mean what I said just now..
Runa: You really are a halfwit aren't you?
(Sfx- Gannn thudd)
Taiyou: Hiiii!!
041
Runa: Aim to be a manga artist got it?
Or you're dead.
042
{Wh---wh--what's with her?!}
{Does she not understand shame?!}
(Sfx- Dadaahhh daaaash)
Taiyou: S—ss---
SORRY!!
{It's not like I wanted to see them...!!}
Taiyou: NGH!
(Sfx- Bagoooh thuuud)
043
Taiyou: Owww...
Why'd you...
{Manga magazines...?}
Runa: Choose a magazine you like.
Taiyou: Huh?!
044
Runa: If you don't want others to see what you have now...
Then until next month in six weeks draw a manga that you would be overjoyed to show others.
Let's have a contest to see who will win a prize with their work!
Taiyou: W—wait a minute...
Runa: If you decide to run off, I'll tell everyone you like drawing manga!
Taiyou: eeeeeh?!
(Side text- No path to run away on! The one who's got the prize winning manga will be?!)
