[Free
Talk: This is the last scanlation of this Chinese group for this series. Apparently,
a Chinese company has bought the Chinese rights for the comic. So, if there are
no other groups/individual who are going to scanlate this, this might also be
my last summary for the series. And, we’ll just have to wait for the English
scanlations.]
Beep. In the Line group chat, “You have a
new message.” It is from Michi apologizing that he cannot go to the morning
practice. Shouta asked if everything is alright. Michi replies that everything
is okay. “After I bring my younger sister to kindergarten school, I’ll be passing
by the hospital.”
Kouta replies, is that so. “I hope auntie
gets well soon. Then, see you later😖” At the hospital, Michi holds a couple of bags to his mother. He
tells her that these are a change of clothes and other things that she’ll be
using.
With her right leg in a cast, Michi’s
mother says ‘otsukaresama’ and it’s a great help. Michi asks if he’ll leave the
toothbrush and things for washing here, over this side. His mother says that it
would indeed be convenient to put it over there.
Michi says that this is the hospital of
Tetsuki’s father and he didn’t imagine that he’ll be under his care in this
kind of way. Michi’s mother tells him to send her regards to Tetsuki. Michi
says okay.
After a pause, she asks if there’s no
problem with breakfast and did Hana cry. Michi admits that she cried terribly
and An was the one who made breakfast. His mother says is that so... “You also
have morning practice today, right? I made you unable to go.”
Michi assures her that it is okay. “By the
way, do you still need anything?” She says no, thanks. After a pause, his
mother says, “...Michi, sorry. Right now is a crucial time for your club, right?
*Michi looks at his smiling mother* Even if the doctor SAID THAT, but your old
mom can quickly get well from this little fracture!”
Michi tells her not to force herself and
during this time, she should properly rest. “...Also, I still haven’t told you
but in the club, I can play considerably well so it is okay to take a little
break.” Looking apprehensive, his mother says, is that so...
While the guys are having lunch at the
rooftop, Sane exclaims in disbelief that Michi’s mother has to be hospitalized
for a month due to a complex fracture!!? Michi sheepishly says yes, and it’s
quite a headache.
“Besides, it is even at the hospital of
Tetsuki’s dad... By the way, does a fracture really heal that long... It also
looks quite serious since I heard that mom’s situation will last for long time.”
Sane is that so, quite serious... Kouta
says that it is fortunate that she didn’t hit her head. Michi says that too...
Looking at Michi seriously, Tetsuki asks how will he handle the things at home.
This somewhat startled Michi.
Tetsuki tells the others that Michi’s dad
rarely comes home due to work so what about household work and also taking care
of his siblings. Kouta exclaims that’s right!
Michi says that he talked about it with An
yesterday. Chika asks, An? Michi says that he still hasn’t met her. “She’s my
oldest younger sister and she is currently in third year junior high. An will
be in charge of breakfast and sending Hana-chan...
She’s my youngest younger sister to go to
kindergarten. Dinner... I’ll think of a way regarding that... As for the
others... Honestly speaking, I also don’t know what to do. Before, it is
basically my mom who did the household chores, all by herself...
Saying that is quite embarrassing because
aside from cooking [<- maybe very basic or it is a wrong translation ^^;]
and sending my younger sister to school, I still don’t know how to do the other
household chores.”
Sane nervously says regarding dinner, can
he cook. “Can’t you ask An-chan to do it?” Michi says that she is an examining
student. “She wants to take a test to get into a good school... so after
school, she still has to go to cram class...”
Kouta says, “...Eh but...like that,
Michi...what about...the club...?” Everyone looks surprised as they look at
stumped Michi. Michi sheepishly smiles.
He says in short, in the following month,
practice would only be during noon and less than an hour after school. “The
situation is probably like that! Ha ha ha, ah...I really don’t know what I
should do...” Then, he sees Sane’s distraught and tense expression.
Noticing that Michi is looking at him, Sane
snaps out of it. Looking away, Sane quickly says, is that so! “But at least, it
is not like you totally couldn’t come to practice! That’s great!” Michi says
yes, that’s right. Then, he looks tense.
Michi stands up and tidies up his things.
He tells the others, so since he didn’t do morning practice, he has to quickly
make up for it by practicing this noon. Sane says okay.
After Michi left, Sane confesses for being
quite awful. “...Just now, it is possible that my face has ‘isn’t that really
terrible’ written all over it. How can I be like that... And it is even seen by
Michi... At this kind of time, how can I continue to compel him to...”
Chika says what about it. “Just now, I
ought to also have that kind of expression. The fact is, it is indeed very
terrible so what should be done. ...besides, compared to anyone else, he ought
to clearly know about it.”
At the hallway, Michi stops walking and
clenches his fist. He tells himself that it will be alright. “It will be
alright. It isn’t like I totally do not have time for practice. In short, there
will be a way. I’ll definitely think of a way.”
During club meeting, Takezou says is that
so...then that’s really quite hard for him. Michi apologizes and says that he
also knows that the present time is very crucial. Takezou says that it is
alright, if it is a month— Suzuka interrupts by telling them that it won’t be
just for a month.
“After going out of the hospital, things
won’t immediately go back to how it used to be. She has to temporarily depend
on a cane to walk and has to do physical therapy [/rehabilitation exercises].
You have to be psychologically prepared that for at least two months, you won’t
be able to undergo the same level of practice with the others.”
Everyone becomes tense about this. Natsu
looks somewhat sad. Hiro exclaims that it will be alright. “It goes without
saying that our club really exceeds the number of practice! Before, wasn’t it
said that compared to practice time, we are going to emphasize on quality! In
short, there will be a way!”
Suzuka says because there is no way so saying
to improve [practice] is with the prerequisite that they ensure their amount of
practice time. Takezou calls out to him. Hiro is surprised by that.
Suzuka tells him not to run away upon
encountering this situation and on contrary, they’ll just going around in
circles. “Sakai, honestly speaking, in accordance with your amount of practice
from here on, I think that you won’t be able to play the ‘Ai’ part that you’re
responsible for.” This stuns Michi and causes Takezou to call out Suzuka.
Suzuka calmly tells Takezou that based on
their usual amount of practice and the level of the composition, it is
basically impossible to suddenly improve one’s level. “I think that it isn’t
possible to play it if you were to decrease the amount of practice.”
Sane and Kouta protest about Suzuka’s way
of saying and he shouldn’t say that at this time. “You know that Michi cannot
ensure the amount of practice, so you plan to abandon him--”
Suzuka says that he doesn’t plan on
abandoning him, he has a suggestion. “Until now, except for classes, you spent
most of your time in the club and practicing as if your life depended on it.
Right now, you suddenly have to do household chores along with dealing with
kids which you haven’t done before...
...Basically, I cannot imagine how tiring
it is to have so many responsibilities. So, Sakai, I’m going to change your
part into a solo. Primarily, I’ll revise the difficulty to play and the difficulty
to understand the part.”
After a pause, Michi asks if he is saying
that only his part would become simple [/easy to play]. Suzuka says that’s
right, that is what he meant. Michi recalls during summer training when Chika
said that for Suzuka to give each of them a part, it is because he thinks that
it is a piece that they can play.
Michi says that he doesn’t want the piece
to change. Suzuka says that he’s afraid that showing off until the end will
just end up in playing it messily. “It is better to change it and make it a bit
easier--”
Flustered Michi shouts, “Who knows!!! Right
now, it is still hard to say!! It’s possible that my family’s situation, in
fact, the problem isn’t that big. My mom also said that it is possible that
she’ll recover earlier than expected. I haven’t tried it yet so don’t say anything
yet [/that’s how it is]. *bows while clenching fist* ...let me...do it...”
Everyone looks tense and sympathetic. Chika
calls out to Michi and says, here. He gives Michi the koto and tells him that
they don’t have a lot of time so quickly start practicing. Michi exclaims,
okay. Kouta and Sane say yes, it is useless to just keep on talking!
While the others prepare to practice,
Takezou tells Suzuka that he’ll think over Michi’s situation and also properly
ponder over their method of practice so please... After a pause, Suzuka
scratches his head. He relents and says, fine. Atsumu is relieved by that while
Natsu is in deep thought over it.
Comment: At first, I was wondering why there is a special focus on Natsu
regarding Michi’s situation. Then, I remembered that it is probably the same
kind of situation Natsu had all his life. Aside from chores, he also has to
have a part-time job so he doesn’t have much time for club activities.
He can definitely relate to what Michi is
going through but then, it isn’t exactly the same situation. Unlike Michi,
Natsu can easily learn how to play with the group. So, was he thinking about
not giving in that much persistence/dedication to continue with club
activities/playing music? Or, maybe not having this kind of club members?
Or perhaps, thinking that they are all
naïve to think that Michi can still do it given the circumstances. After all,
this is like expectation vs reality. Can it really be done? Suzuka’s suggestion
is the quite logical and practical. Being young and idealistic, it is
understandable why Michi and others doesn’t want easily give up.
I guess the best compromise is to put in a
time limit to see if Michi can still catch up before switching to making his
part easy to play. Somehow, I wonder if that will affect their chances in
winning the competition. Though, in a way, the consolation would be they get to
play all together one last time.
On a side note, Chika has been reacting
quite well in both instances. He immediately stopped Sane’s guilt trip and
break the intense moment on making an important decision by going to practice. Just
like Michi, I’m surprised that it can take a month’s hospitalization for a
fracture. I always thought that if one’s in a cast, one can go home and just
have check-ups. ^^;
And, I guess in this chapter, we know how
rich Tetsuki is. I wonder if he or the others can help with the household
chores. Like, someone helping with the laundry, someone cooking extra and share
it with them for dinner...those kind of stuff. Scans by 二次元秘店汉化組

firt of all welcome back , I hope you enjoyed the trip, by the way where did you go in italy ? i've been there toseveral cities andit is beautiful and for your next rip i would suggest verona it is a lovely city
ReplyDeletei'm quite sad about the chinese scanlation, the english one waits till the volume release so they are not on monthly basis i hope that even if there is no scans someone would do similiar to you a summary in chinese or the chater dialgue , i do hope for the bet i really like this manga
actually i don't think it is uncommon for a fracture to take 1 month to heal specially for complex fracture and for older people (because they take longer to heal) and it seems that she will also need therapy after the cast (which seem to indicate that it is a compelx fracture because normally after the cast removal you are done), i think it is nice how michi realized how important his mom is to the home stability, i agree with you i think it is better to have a time limit and if not just change to simpler one becuase it is more or less May in the manga universe and the compition is in august so they can't really wte lots of time
as for natsu i honestly would understand him if he thought that all of this i a waste of time because i would feel the same if i knew michi for less that 1 month and the compition is what matters but i also undertand the other side because they knew michi for a year (and some of them for longer) the meotional connection is what drive their reactions , i do hope natsu surprices me and maybe help in michi's situation but who knows
as for tetsuki i knew his family were doctor but wow indeed and it is nice to see how he doesn't go around talking about his richness to other people
thank
emmahoshi
Thanks, emmahoshi ^^ We went to Rome, Florence, Venice and Milan. It is really nice ^^ Thanks for the suggestion ^^
DeleteHopefully someone/group will do it. Usually, if a series is popular, there will be a way.
Yes, it will take a long time to heal...but is it really necessary to be hospitalized for a month? It seems to be such a long time to be hospitalized. I mean the expenses and such.
Yup.
Indeed...though for Natsu, the competition isn't exactly that important to him either. Yup and maybe we'll also know more about his background.
Yup. And, interestingly, he got Chika and others as his friends when usually rich kids don't associate with such people.
oh i didn't think about the 1 month hospitilization, indeed it is a long period
Deletei do hope we can see more of natsu's background
sometimes kids like tatsuki hang out with the troubled crowd just to bother their parents , but tatsuki doesn't seem that way and also i think he knew chika since he was in elementary school but it is great that he didn't change as he grow older
oh you went to the 4 major cities, i really liked venice (because i love walking on bridges) and rome was really nice (a lot to do) florance was ok (i have no interest in art or museums) milan was a disapointment (if you are not there for shopping then in half a day i've seen all i wanted to see) , napoli has nice pizza , i hoped you enjoeyed your time there italy is nice and even if there is nothing to do there is a lot of delicious food to eat !
emmahoshi
Ya. I tried googling about it but it only says that it heals 1-2 months, nothing about being hospitalized that long.
DeleteYup.
Indeed.
Yup. 1-2 days in each city. We joined a walking tour in each city so basically, just go to the 'popular places' then just walk around afterwards. Went only to a few museums. True and I did enjoy it. Hehe, though have to be careful at times when it is crowded. I almost got pickpocketed at Florence. ^^;
That was an interesting chapter, kinda emotional, kinda bridge functional and kinda of info dump, I like it and now I relate to Michi's too, my how childhood was like that, though because parents were out working so I had to take care of the house chores and my young siblings until we could afford to pay domestic help, but it was really hard to find a trusty one. Again, I liked the chapter, thanks Kat.
ReplyDeleteOh, that's sad, understandable, but sad. Though the scans are pretty good and not so far behind, even so, we - at least I - really, really like your takes on it. ^^
-
Yea, I know, it's just that reminded me of my childhood. ^^ But, back to the tourism topic, I don't think we have that "kind of" service here, and I'm not sure about private beaches either. Unless the ones you mentioned are the ones that only reach people go - but that's because the inns/hotels and such are all too expensive;
And you're right, but I remember my friends and family saying that you could walk peacefully there when they went overseas, to Paris, Rome, Sicily and such, so it's really saddening to hear how the situation degraded there.
-
My god, fans of Hitler? Jesus, I can't even fathom that, sorry, I'm at a loss for words now, really. But, I did hear that president of your country is threatening some kind of war against Canada for waste?
-
Yes, like I said, it's kinda a masochistic thing because I like being informed, no only to debate and maybe even teach others, but to feel okay with myself either. I know if I hit my head on something all that goes away, but oh well, it is what it is, as I say.
-
Yep, that's one of the most stressful thing about it, besides the waiting to know if it'll get or not.
I know, I'm calling babysteps; can't really do anything so I'm just taking babysteps and that'll have to do.
-
Take care.
Thanks for reading, Fê ^-^ Ya...somehow, this arc is hinting on a turning point based on the titles lately and it doesn't seem good. I mean they are up against a 'genius'-level group and now, they have a problem within. This time, it isn't going smoothly like before.
DeleteYa. Thanks~
- - -
Yes, it is where rich people go so ya, you pay for the privacy and exclusivity. The poor would just content themselves in swimming in dirty polluted bays. Actually, when it is raining and there is a deep flood somewhere, kids swim there. When there was a manhole-type of excavation here being fixed and it is flooded with water, kids turn it into their mini swimming pool. And, we would say, God has blessed them to have strong immunity because they don't easily get sick.
I see. In the comments from travel forums, they would always say that it is the same as in other big cities...be alert and take care with one's belongings. I guess it depends if there are many people...that's usually the time when they strike.
- - -
Yup. Fans of Hitler and proud of it. Lol, that news reached your place. You see, some importer shipped waste/garbage from Canada to our country years ago. They are discussing and stuff about what to do with it. Now, it seems that they are going to reach a resolution to ship it back to Canada. So, to take credit for it, the president is saying that he'll go to war against Canada if they don't take the garbage back. So, if Canada takes the garbage back now...since they are actually going to do it soon...he is going to take credit for it.
He did it before with certain WW2 booty bells. It will be soon be decided that the bells are going to be returned then he starts yakking about the bells. The bells are returned and he takes credit for it. He likes taking credit for things like the projects done by the previous admin. He claims that it is his since they are finished during his term. So, it gives the impression that he is doing something.
Back to Canada, it is a threat that no one believes after all, this guy is afraid of going to war against China yet would gladly go to war against Canada. He likes to attack those who won't 'get back' at him for saying that. Canada just issued a calm response and his fans are saying, see, Canada is intimidated.
- - -
I see ^^
- - -
Hm...so after all the many sick leaves with doctor's assessment, it is possible not to get it?
That's good ^^
- - -
Same to you, take care and hope you get a longer sick leave ^^
Yea, it looks like it'd be onehelluva rollercoaster, and that'd be awesome, though it's bad for mah heart, lol. It'd be nice to see they facing something else than just other schools or they own shortcomings when it comes to music, now it's all kinds of shortcomings = their own pride as musicians, their own mindsets, their "romance" problems, their family problems, in other words, their own problems as a whole - not just some other school and their time to practice;
Delete-
Here, like I said, there're no places like that, it's just that the buildings, inns and places for rent are expensive, but there're still poor people that go there, there's no private - like, you need to pay to enter;
About the Canada stuff, it's not like it reached here, I've just read in one of the sites/sources/articles I read every now and then; but so, your president knows if he faces China he'll be screwed 'cuz China actually has an army and has no shame in deploying them, while Canada just tries to be the good guys all around - and is suffering because of that, but that's it's other matter altogether;
BTW, it happens here, too, when it rains and there're "pools" and stuff like that children use the opportunity to "revel" in such ways, even when people died because of floodings; kinda crazy.
I got it, he just want credits for re-election, right? For his image and stuff, Lula did the same thing and a lot of people bought, shameful.
-
Ah, I'd recommend Fairy Gone as this season anime, only watched the first epi. but it gave me a really nice vibe, hopefully it stays good up until the end;
-
Yep, some "doctors" don't even ask for your name and are already writing their report to send back to the secretary and you're left with only hope. Like I said, some people believe there're "quotes" to reach, once reached, they won't approve anymore, even if you can't even get out of the bed - it already happened to me thrice;
-
Take care, the time for it is nearing and I already can feel my stress going up. I didn't use to be like that at all, lol. Need to go back to my roots and do justice to my nickname ^^
Yup.
Delete- - -
Haha, actually, he cannot say anything bad things to China. He is all praises and would defend China against his own countrymen. Nice huh? It has been a long time joke now that we are a province of China. He even mentioned that twice in two different speeches. The latest one is recently, within this month before he head off to China to see/report to his boss, as some people would say.
About deploying their army, I'm not sure if China will do that because it will ruin their reputation that they've built all these years. It is a lose-lose situation. It can give US an excuse to join in. After all, there is no need to use expensive weapons when they can 'buy off' the leaders who are more than willing give whatever China wants if the price is right.
About Canada vs Philippines, there are some military analyst who gave data about the chances of winning. The result: Canada will even say sorry to us for wiping us out so easily. ^^;
- - -
Hm...it is 'still water', right? Not rushing waters where they swim? The problem here with floods is there is that rat urine which causes leptospirosis.
Yup. Not for re-election since presidents here only have one term...that is if they didn't change the constitution like what they are planning to. The guy is sick so he might not last long. The credits here would be for his 'successor'. They want to get someone from their allies so that they won't be persecuted for all their wrongdoings.
- - -
Okay, I'll check it out.
- - -
Oh. So, these sick leaves are done by different doctors and if you end up with one with a quota, come back again/do everything again and hope the next doctor hasn't fill up his quota?
- - -
Ah...it has already started to affect you psychologically. Well, hopefully, after all that stress, good news ^^
I see, and you're right about deployment of the army, China and US are definitely only waiting for one misstep - Russia included, ofc, and N.Korea - so I see your point and it's really a sad situation. I won't say it's similar to Venezuela where Maduro's it's only there because Russia is still want him there and maybe took all the blame when he falls, but I see, if China can do things without any army involved is way better for him; And well, luckily Canada is some kinda of globalist wannabe political correct country and hardly will be at any war at all, especially against a "poor third world country" w/e the reasons;
Delete-
It's the same thing, really, and I think we already talk about that some time ago, didn't we? How poor people get content with such things;
-
Again, I don't know if it's really good, the first epi. was, though; I need to find the time, right now I'm "working" on things to social media such youtube videos, twitter and other stuff; and seeing how I'm bad at every single one of those, I take a lot of time and make a lot of mistakes, then I have to redo things and such, more time is needed and the cycle goes on, lmao.
-
If that is true, right? I don't know if I can actually believe it, but I'm sure as hell I can't disbelieve such things. Seeing how some people get theirs even when they don't have anything, while others can barely move don't, it's something to ponder about - and cry, lol.
-
But it was something that I was already feeling for a long time, the tests only confirmed it, though I try to do things to get better and do get better days, the rebounds are quite nasty.
Thanks, so, was KoT dropped yet? I've seen the new chapter, but like always, I'm better off waiting when I'm feeling well enough to spend some time to actually enjoy the reading. God bless, Kat, take care. ^^
Yup. And, in a way, won't that make US happy since they sell weapons? It can help their economy.
DeleteTrue. So, Canada is an easy target for the president to say things since he knows they won't retaliate like China. The guy is all talk but is actually a coward. Still, the guy is deadly because he has hitmen/death squad and propagandists/trolls. Kill/arrest the enemies and brainwash the rest.
Maybe later on, we can no longer talk anything bad about him, his allies and the government or else...
- - -
Yup.
- - -
I see. No problem, I'll just drop it if I don't like it ^^ Hehe, perfectionist? ^^
- - -
Ya. Something fishy is going on there...and no one ever brought it up in public/media?
- - -
I see. Hopefully, better days ^^
- - -
It was dropped but someone translated it instead...in script rather than scanlation. A way to go about the copyright.
Yup, read it when you're better.
Same to you ^-^ Get better soon ^^
It'd certainly make the democrats/Clintons/Obama happy, since they're behind those shady way of selling weapons - most "honest" weapons they sell is to their own, some private companies have contracts with the gov and sell mostly to them. U.S itself don't really produce, it's the private companies that may have shady contracts - like the Clintons/Obama had - that do that. Not saying Trump or anyone else were honest, but that's what the most "believable" reports say/show.
Delete-
Ah, so he's the militia type of guy, which is dangerous as hell, even if he himself is knocking on hell's door.
Ha, it's already happening here - with some ministers that think they're gods or something. They spend more than 1bi - that's right, you read right - in "food". Just reminding this makes me nervous and stressed out so I'll just change gears now, lol.
-
That's what I usually do, it's just that I wouldn't like to recommend something that makes you waste time, my own thing, you know?
-
It has been some noise about it than some journalist tried to show it, but probably were shut/bribed because the subject is completely silent/dead for years now;
-
I see, for you, which is way is better? And why this way is able to go under the radar? Is it because there're no images or it doesn't show the actual chapter?
-
I'm still waiting for better days, hopefully I'll read it later today - feeling relatively well, but a lot better than the usual; and sometimes I read when I'm really down just so I can up myself 'cause I know some reads can do that you/me, lol.
-
Thanks Kat, see you soon;
I think it goes beyond them...like I would easily think of Bush like the Iraq wars. Though, my history is limited except for some news like I read that Bin Laden used to be helped by the US with weapons.
Delete- - -
Ya.
Haha...stressful eh. And, I guess they're getting away with it.
- - -
Hehe, what is a waste of time or not...it's relative ^^
- - -
Haha...but is it only for that? Here, it is for almost all topics except if they are paid/has benefit from keeping it up. They talk about this topic then later on, replaced by another. That other one is forgotten. Before, it is possible that they are bribe. Now, it is more on, if you keep talking about that...we'll find something to sue you with.
- - -
It is just a 'transcript'...text written underneath the page/raw. It isn't embedded on the image = comic = scanlation. So, it guess that is okay.
Which is better...I would think the script is better to translate = just copy and paste the text that I don't know in the dictionary. Though, it is a bit of a hassle to scroll up and down for the pic and the text. And, the translator is a Japanese beginner so some sentences are a bit hard to understand. Though there are a few who corrects the wrong translation. ^^
- - -
That's good ^^
=)
Hi I know a site that still update kono ono tomare raw, it already has chapter 79 but doesn't have chapter 78... I can give you the link if you wamnt
ReplyDeleteThanks for the offer. I already got it in baidu and someone translated it in Chinese ^^ So, I'll start working on it.
DeleteThank you~ I'm looking forward to it
DeleteIt's up ^-^
DeleteSorry to hear about the lost scanlation though I'm thankful 79 will still be on the way. Don't know what happens after that but I did want to let you know how much I appreciate all the hard work you've put into this and that I can't wait to see what you have in store for us next. Thanks so much once again :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, KrimzonStriker ^-^
DeleteSomeone translated 79 in Chinese so summary can still continue for now...
