Akuma to Love Song [Chapter 91/Last Song]

Originally posted @ tatsukida.pitas.com on August 11, 2011


Narration: “I’ve remembered the scene when I first saw Maria. At that time, the impression she gave me is that she is like a devil, a girl who says sharp and unkind words. Yet, she has such beautiful and sorrowful eyes. I told her of a trick, as a survival technique-- 'Lovely Transform’. She is to conceal her devilish nature and harmonious get along with everyone. But right now, I have some regret telling her. Because right now, she has become so cute, and I can only stand by the side, quietly looking at her.”

While the others happily talking with the audience, Yuusuke looks back to see Shin kissing Maria. After Shin breaks the kiss, he asks blushing Maria if she would go with him. Soon, Maria’s friends see this. They go to the couple and Ayu reprimands them as to what they are doing. Shin apologizes because he became oblivious of his surrounding.

When Maria is about to answer Shin regarding what he just said, Yuusuke happily tells them that is enough for now, if they want to go lovey-dovey, do it after the performance. Gesturing to the audience, Yuusuke tells Maria that they can wait until they finish, and then she and Shin can slowly talk about it again. “Look, everyone is asking for one more song.”

Calling to Shin, Yuusuke says, “Meguro. *smiles* Making Maria emit a dazzling radiance is your responsibility! (Even if this is a bit showing off [/forceful], but my ‘lovely transform’ is--)” After looking surprised by what Yuusuke said, Shin takes Maria’s hand and says that they are going to perform ‘Ave Maria’.

Maria happily smiles and sings the song with Shin plays the piano accompaniment. Yuusuke sadly smiles and record their performance. Narration: “Without looking back at me for a glance.. but I still cannot free myself from liking this girl in front of me, at least, I want to maintain [my] poise. And perhaps--..”
Later on, while walking by themselves at the streets, the girls are raving over how truly fun it was. In the end, the people around them had also started to sing together with them and it is a spectacular sight. It is amazing because it is like they are one group singing. Maria tells her friends that she’s going to be a singer.

Yuusuke sadly smiles and says that he’ll support her. Shintaro says that he’ll also support her. Tomoyo says that she always knew that Maria will be a singer. Ayu agrees with Tomoyo and how come it is only now that Maria decided on this. Ayu asks Maria what she is going to do next, will she sell herself to an artist [/performing arts] company.

Tomoyo tells Ayu that it is too early for that. Shin asks how about a music college. He tells her that in the rehabilitation center where he is, he met with some musicians performing for patients as a method of psychological treatment to people. He also says that he thinks that with the college there, Maria can study a lot more regarding all sorts of specializations. “Would you also come? Together with me--” Maria says, “I..”

Yuusuke smiles and tells the two that they consult with each other about this so he and the others will go ahead. Before Yuusuke can leave, Maria tells him to stay. “You are Meguro’s best friend, so I want you to also stay here with us.” Tomoyo tells them to slowly talk it over and they’ll go ahead.
 Narration: “Maria will definitely go together with Meguro.. Afterwards, I will smile and send them off— This will be my last time to show off..” When they are alone, Yuusuke smiles and says not to be that awkward and it has been such a long time since the three of them talk together like this. Maria says that is true, because from the start, only two people treated her well. Blushing, Shin denies that he treated her nice from the start. Yuusuke tells him that there he goes again.

Yuusuke is surprised when Maria says, “Later on, the first person who talked with me is Kanda. You’re the one who taught me to make friends.” Narration: “Ah..wait, this is not good.” [Note: For this chapter, all the speech in (..) are all by Yuusuke. ->] Maria continues to say, “It is also you who had helped me make a video that enabled me to see Meguro. (What is this? It feels like parting words, right?) If it weren’t for you, then, there won’t be the ‘current me’. (I know, you are going with Shin, right? But..) Kanda is my.. (Towards you, I..)”

To Maria and Shin’s surprise, Yuusuke suddenly shouts for Maria to stop. “Don’t say anymore! I don’t want to hear it! *smiles* I’m really afraid of moving scenes-- So! It’s okay to just straightforwardly go with Meguro! Saying ‘goodbye’-whatever is fine..” Slightly tilting her head, Maria says, “I won’t be going with him!” This surprises Yuusuke.

Shin smiles as if he already knew the answer. Maria asks Yuusuke if he thinks that she is a girl who’ll depend on her boyfriend. “Anyway, I still haven’t graduated yet. And, it is only just a while when I find out about this dream!” Sweatdropping Shin scratches his head and says, “I know, I know. You are that kind of girl.” Maria blushes and slightly pouts.
Maria says that before seeing Shin, she also wants to become someone who would love herself more. “So, next time I meet with Meguro again, before that, I want to stay here and do my best with my friends!” Narration: “Ah, ah.. Yes, Maria is this kind of girl. Not even a bit cute but really cool.”

Yuusuke laughs and says, “I like you, Maria! *Maria looks surprised and Shin slightly smiles* You’re really charismatic. So much like a guy ♡” After looking surprised, Maria tilts her head and says, “But of course ♡” Yuusuke smiles and puts his arm around Maria.

To Shin’s aghast, Yuusuke says, “I’ll give Meguro to you! Big Bro! That guy really loves to [/easily] feel jealous!” Maria smiles at him and says, “That is Shin’s cute side.” Narration: “She is the most amazing, most perfect devil. Seeing her smile, and seeing everyone smile, *Maria and others bid Shin goodbye at the airport* I seem to be able to identify [with them], that I also can smile happily.

I also started to like the me, who is like this. *Shintaro cries as everyone else graduates* It is like making people happy. *Maria’s cross with everyone happy together including Anna.* Everyone’s feelings are like a circle that is completely connected. And-- in my heart, this is the most perfect ‘Lovely Transform’. The End. Scans by §星空ツ泪 for BW

    1. Yup. From what was mentioned, Maria will stay with her friends and get to know more/love herself. Then, probably after graduation, she'll go see and be with Shin later on.

  14. No matter where I searched I couldn't read the final chapters. When I searched It was only up to ch 88. I still want to read the chapters instead of reading it like this here, but it seems its not possible. So thank you very much for doing this, and now I can finally have a rest about how this story ends. I'm the type that likes to finish everything I read. Really, thank you very much ^_^
