Sarazanmai thread...

He is just being a extreme kind of tsundere

Japanese people are just way more rigid about blood family. Being adopted into a loving family is a huge source of angst for characters.

I don't know how Ikuhara is going to write Kazuki out of the extreme retard corner he's in. It kinda stresses me out.

Otters hold hands when they sleep, otters are evil, therefore hand-holding is evil.

Kazuki is going to be the one to sacrifice himself.

It is, that's why it even banned on /d/.

I swear the way these boys act makes me think Ikuhara agrees with me that 14 year old boys are the west group of people on earth. They do dumb shit without thinking it thru, are hormonal, horny, and violent.

I love Kazuki even more. I can't wait to see what crazy shit he does in the 2nd half.

Does he ever transform into a human?

You and Ikuhara are both right.

If Keppi sucked on Mabu or Reo's ass what would happen

The song that plays during that part is fucking awesome

There're literally thousands of otter accounts on twitter and otter youtubers, they film otters doing cute shit which fuel even more poaching

Mabu's ass is for Reo only.

Well goddammit why didn't anyone tell me this was the new Ikuhara show?
Picked the fuck up, I don't even care if it's bad.

There's a humanoid silhouette that might be his at the end of the manga.

>Mabu's ass is for old Otters only.

Floors five and six of Gorogoro Kaikan were joined and a stage called Tokiwa Hall was installed. Fans were lined up at the entrance to the hall.

Enta was flanked by his parents and Enta.

“Haruka, what are you looking at?”

He said, looking at Haruka who was entranced by his phone.

“Today’s Lucky Selfie fortune!”

Sara was announcing the Lucky Selfie Item for the day on the small screen.

“You really are a true Sara fan to be watching her show even though you’re about to meet her.”

“Yup! I love Sara!”

“Now, then, today’s lucky selfie item is… A sachet, dish!”

Haruka turned around and asked his mother, “Hey, Mom, what’s a sachet?”

“It’s a little bag that smells good.”

“A little bag that smells good…”

Enta didn’t notice the way Haruka’s eyes were glistening and cut in.

“S-So, Kazuki isn’t with you today…?”

“Yeah, Kazu-chan left early.”

“O-Oh…”

Enta twitched as he forced a smile. His thoughts were a complete mess.

What are you doing, Kazuki! If Haruka finds out, it’s all over…!

“Well, I wish you good Saraluck today as always!”

This must be your first Ikuhara.

Kazuki makes bad choices in life.

Will Keppi continue the tradition of being another Ikuhara subversion of a prince charming by making him the real bad guy?

Mabu is for kissing, handholding and marrying, not for exploitation.

Why did Hosoya think Mabu was the top?

He didn't

At the Asakusa Police Station, in that large conference room, a meeting was being held in a solemn atmosphere.
Sign with the words “Asakusa Unnatural Death Incident Investigative HQ” was hanging outside the door.
The chief of police’s voice echoed through the dark room.

“We have identified the corpse that was discovered this morning. Nioino Fukurou, age 35. Unemployed. Six months ago he was arrested as a suspect in the ‘Asakusa Protected Species Scented Bag Incident’, but released due to lack of evidence. We are investigating his murder.” [as an aside his name, as all the zombies names are, is a joke and can be read as “scented bag” (the way the sachet is described)]

With a shhk shhk sound the chief flipped through the slides projected on the screen.

Several photos of the protected Japanese Giant Salamander being abducted and confined, and then bizarrely, being made to eat curry, and having its sweat extracted were projected on the screen.
There’s no way a scented bag produced in this way could smell good… Such was the atmosphere in the meeting room. The air in the room seemed vaguely spicy too.

In the middle of that, two figures abruptly stood up. It was Reo and Mabu.

“We sniffed that one out!”
“That was yesterday’s sachet!”

Yes, it happened last night.
Right in the police box they were stationed in.

“This arrest is down right fishy!”

“To those for whom there is no beginning, no end, and no connection…”

Mabu held up a photo of Nioino forcing salamanders in a bucket to eat extra spicy curry.

“We’ll open this door for you…”

Reo abruptly pointed a gun at Nioino.

“Desire?”
“Or love?”

A large taiko drum appeared above Nioino.

“Desire extraction!”

The next instant, Nioino was sucked into the drum and disappeared.

Stop this meme, even as a corpse, Mabu is pure and loyal.

You are correct.

I find it moe.

what are we going to do when episode 7 arrives and we don't have any spoilers for a WHOLE week?

They seem to be focusing in on the main casts' secrets/issues rather than exploring them through their foes (like the black rose duelists), which is probably for the better because there's only 11 episodes and time is better spent on the main cast anyway.

I guess we're gonna need to SPECULAH

Mabu held up a photo of Nioino forcing salamanders in a bucket to eat extra spicy curry.

Mabu and Reo are truly doing god's work in bringing in so many animal abusers.

I mean if you read the novel you've been in this state since like episode 2

Imagine being Reo and having Mabu's living corpse besides you at all times, looking the same as he did alive but without any of the warmth and love, the person you loved deeply an unrecognizable and quiet shell of his old self for whom you have to kill to keep alive.

“This is the spot. Please come in.”

The place the kappa masked man had brought Sara was the Asakusa Kannon Hot Spring which wasn’t far from Gorogoro Kaikan.[as an aside, this hotspring was recently demolished]
The ivy twining around the building really added to its charm, but the building was already condemned. The gloomy ruins of the spring opened up after the door opened with a squeak.

“My… What a suspensful atmosphere this building has, dish!”

Sara, who was no ordinary idol, stepped inside with not an ounce of doubt.
The moment she was inside, the door slammed shut. Naturally, the culprit was the kappa-masked Toi. He wrapped chains around the doorknob and closed it with a big lock.

“I’ll let you out once the meet-and-greet ends. If you need someone to blame, blame him…”

Just as Toi turned around, having finished his job––

“Saratto escape!”

Sara was right there, striking her signature pose.

“What?! How did you get out?!”

He turned around to check the doorknob and it was still chained shut.

After that, Toi and Sara went in circles for a bit, with Toi locking Sara up and Sara escaping. Phone booth, a large coin locker, even one of those sword boxes like you see in one of those magic shows. No matter where Toi tried to lock her up, she would just “saratto escape”.
Toi, who wasn’t exactly a newbie when it came to criminal activities, but this made him lose all confidence.

“How in the hell…”

>Sara was right there, striking her signature pose.

Not really, she seems a lot more independent compared to Anthy. Even if she works for the otters and all.

“We’re about to open the meet-and-greet for local Asakusa idol, Azuma Sara!”

The announcement filled the hall, finally they would get to meet Sara.

This would be Enta’s first time meeting the real Sara too, and the excitement of that prospect had briefly made him forget that he was really there to keep Kazuki’s secret from being revealed.

“Good morning! Azuma Sara diiish!”

That is until Kazuki took the stage dressed as Sara.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, what the hell are you thinking?!

Enta was so shocked by Kazuki’s unexpected appearance that he remembered his original objective.

Crap! Haruka’s going to find out…!

“It’s Sara! She’s sooo cute!”

“Huh?”

And it wasn’t just Haruka, cheers went up all over the hall.

Th-They can’t tell?!

Kazuki smiled in response to the cheers.

“I’m soo happy that you all came to see me today, dish! I’ve been looking forward to meeting you all… Uhwuh?!”

Their eyes met.

Kazuki was visibly ruffled when he noticed Enta.

(Haruka hasn’t figured it out! Looks like it’s gonna work!)

The signals they made up for fun in soccer club came in handy.

The meet-and-greet progressed without a hitch, and ultimately Enta’s turn came. Haruka was waiting just behind him.

“I-I’m rooting for you. In more ways than one…”

Enta was cheering him on from the bottom of his heart.

“T-Thank you, dish…”

Kazuki flashed an awkward smile and shook his hand.

Haruka’s father pushed his wheelchair up and he finally was face to face with Kazuki.

“Sara-chan!”

The two hands clasping his felt just as warm as they had on that day.

>Th-They can’t tell?!

Maybe Harukappa isn't that blind.

Idolbuta have brainworms after all

Is Sara only popular with children? Real shitty otaku would never accept this.

Ikuni apparently really likes him, so honestly, it's 50/50.

Cute girls are great even if you don't desire to have sex with them.

Oh shit, if Sara is with the otters could it be that she's indirectly possessing Kazuki?

I hope so.

Stop giving me false hope user

Unable to shake off the discomfort that had developed after his grandfather’s death, Kazuki started to play soccer.
Anything would have done really. He just wanted an excuse not to go straight home after school. When he played soccer, he could just put all his mind into it and not think about anything else. Whatever his reasons for starting might have been, Kazuki started to develop a genuine love of the sport.
His and Haruka’s bedroom quickly filled with soccer goods and posters of foreign soccer players.
Having found some source of emotional support, the next thing Kazuki did was stop wearing his matching family clothes.
Just what had Kazuki’s parents thought when he threw his matching print clothes when the season changed?
That day, Kazuki was practicing soccer in the park outside their apartment.

“Kazu-chan!”

Somehow he figured Haruka would come to get him. Kazuki stopped practicing and climbed the large whale-shaped slide. Haruka followed and sat down next to him at the top of it.

“Ehehe. I saw you from the balcony so I came down!”

The night sky before them was filled with sakura trees in full bloom and the Skytree, and the Sumida River was flowing quietly that spring night.

“Is soccer fun? Maybe I should try it too when I go to elementary school.”

Kazuki had been so busy with soccer lately that he had less time for Haruka. Kazuki felt a little guilty and couldn’t keep quiet anymore, so he opened his mouth.

“…Are mom and dad mad at me?”
“No. They’re not mad, just worried. Thinking you’ve always hated matching with the rest of the family. …Do you, Kazu-chan?”

He knew it.

“I don’t hate it or anything, just I’m gonna start middle school soon. I think it’s time I graduated from wearing matching clothes with my family.”

He bullshitted an answer on the spot, but Haruka seemed to believe him.

> matching family clothes.
Wait, is this some nippon practice?

I honestly have no idea how common or not it is. I think they're supposed to be like pajamas or something. The matching pattern is specifically supposed to just be a border print but it was awkward to include in the English that the way it comes up.

>It's some SZS shit and "Sara" is a hivemind that can cause any member to act like and believe they're Sara

“Right, you’re all grown up now, aren’t you, Kazu-chan?”

He wished he was a grownup. If he was, he could’ve lived on his own… But Kazuki was still just a powerless child.

“But, you know…”

Haruka took Kazuki’s hand as he spoke.

“Even if we wear different clothes, and even when we grow up, you and I, Kazu-chan, we’re connected, from beginning to end, in a big circle.”

Kazuki never forgot the warmth of Haruka’s hands in that moment.

Harukappa is so cute. Kazuki a huge baka.

“From beginning to end!”

He was a little startled when he heard Haruka say it.
But this was Sara’s meet-and-greet and he was pretending to be Sara, so he had to respond with his half of the password.

“We’re connected… in a big circle.”

Surely his voice had trembled with the words.

“Ehehe! Thank you!”

His heart began to twist and creak when he saw Haruka’s innocent smile when––[this line’s kinda weird and I probably fucked it up somewhat so lemme just drop the JP here 春河の屈託のない笑顔に、こころがギシリと歪んだ音を立てたその時。]

“That Sara is a fake!”

Sara’s manager had appeared from a side door on the stage. The entire hall was in an uproar in an instant. And no wonder, for the manager was not wearing pants.

“A fake…?”

Haruka had heard his words too.

“Where has my Sara gone?!”

Enta pinned the manager as he shouted.

“Oh my god! A flasher! Look out Sara-chan!”

“Ugh! What are you doing! Let go of me, four eyes!”

“Shut up! You wear glasses too!”

As an aside some people on 5ch have been speculating from that last comment that Sara's manager might be that guy who showed up during the dream sequence in the last chapter of the manga

I haven't read the manga/novel. Does the idol say 'dish' after everything because of the dishes of hope? Is that how she became an idol?

No, it's her cute speech pattern. Like Naruto with Detebayo

She says dish because her name is Sara and Sara is the japanese word for dish

Disaster time

Haruka objected to the manager’s claim as Enta struggled with him [the manager].

“The person here is the real Sara! She even gave me the password and everything!”

Kazuki had never seen Haruka raise his voice to anyone before. Their parents were surely the same. It was so sudden, everyone was surprised.

“Oh my? What on earth is going on, dish…?”

The drowsy voice echoed through the hall.
Azuma Sara was standing in the entrance furthest from the stage. And behind her was Toi, frantically trying to catch his breath.

“Huh? There are two Sara-chans…?”

“Sara! You’re safe?!”

“I just went on a little walk, dish!”

Sara seemed to have no idea that she had just been abducted. As she leisurely approached the stage, Haruka shouted to her.

“From beginning to end!”
“Huh?”
“The password! Our password!”
Of course there was no way the real Sara would have known about that.
“Who… are you?”

Haruka’s expression abruptly changed.

“I knew it, this one’s the fake! Right, Sara-cha…”

When Haruka turned back around he saw––
––Kazuki’s miserable face as Sara’s manager tore the wig from his head.

“Kazu… chan…?”

As he stood in the dazzlingly bright lights of the stage, everything in front of Kazuki went black.
In the chaos of the hall, silence fell across the stage alone.

“Kazu-chan… Ah!”

At that moment, a little bag flew out of Haruka’s pocket.

“That’s my…!”

Haruka reached for it, but couldn’t grab it.

Enta saw it as he was wrestling with Sara’s manager.

“No way, a kappa zombie?!”

While Haruka was momentarily distracted, Kazuki grabbed the wig and ran off stage. The headdress had fallen to the floor too, but he didn’t have time to pick it up.

Haruka’s voice hit Kazuki’s back as he ran as fast as he could.

“Wait! Kazu-chaaaan…!”

Kazuki ran at top speed, as if trying to escape that voice.

Oh, I see. Thank you for clarifying.

Yep, I knew it, tears it is.

I HATE IT

>The headdress had fallen to the floor too, but he didn’t have time to pick it up.

Cinderella NOW

Somehow creepy to see real sara finish a sentence without dish.

Fuck yes.

You know, that WOULD explain why Kazuki kept acting like Sara when they were at the Soba place, even though he was just with Toi.

Ouch. My heart wasn't ready for this.

Enta arrived at the usual kappa square. And just as he’d expected, Kazuki was standing there still in his Sara costume.

“Kazuki…”

The long black wig fluttered from Kazuki’s hand.

“It’s over… Everything I’ve been working so hard for…”

There was nothing Enta could say. He was painfully aware of how Kazuki felt.

“You were bound to be found out eventually. That day just happened to be today.

The one who broke the silence was Toi.

“Kuji…!”

“Secrets always come out eventually. They always do. Just like yours and mine.”

Bullseye. Enta had been prepared for his whole world to end when the closely guarded secret of his feelings for Kazuki came out when the fact that he kissed Kazuki when he was asleep leaked.

“This whole idea was stupid from the start. Did you really think you were going to get away with it?”
“Haven’t you done enough already?!”

Enta shouted, unable to bear it any longer. But Toi ignored him and kept going.

“Why are you pretending you’re the one hurt? You hurt your little brother, you did. You’re the one at fault here!”

Kazuki’s shoulders trembled, and Enta grabbed Toi at almost the same time.

“Like you’re in any position to talk, murderer!”

The moment he said it, Enta realized that Toi’s earlier statement had applied to himself too, but it was too late to back down, and Toi was in the same position.

“Then you tell him! If you’re the Golden Duo, kick him in the head and wake him up!”

“I…”

The two of them turned around as they clutched at each other’s collars. Kazuki still had his back to them, but his shoulders were trembling.

“I hurt Haruka… Even though I promised I’d never hurt him again… I hurt Haruka again…”

“Kazuki…”

“…Again?”

At which point Keppi shouted loudly enough to drown out Toi’s quiet question, “Extraaaaaaact… desiiiire!”

And the next moment, all three of them were kappas.

Toi best boy!

Odds Aniki is a otter zombie

“That was cruel to do it with no warning, Keppi!”
“When the sun sets, kappa zombies appear. So I turned you into kappas. What’s the problem, kero?”
“Too many to count…”

Out of concern for Kazuki, who hadn’t said a word, Enta changed the subject.

“So that thing they stole from Haruka, you know, those, uh, things.”
“The object of this kappa zombie’s desire is scented pouches, kero.”
“Yeah, that’s right! If it’s something important to Haruka, we should get it back! Right, Kazuki?”

After a brief pause, Kazuki nodded slightly.

“Kappature it!”

The three of them faced off against the zombie along with Keppi’s shout.

“Nice smelling sachets~!”

The zombie relentlessly blew perfume at the boys.

“Bwah, it smells good…”

It seemed to dizzy the three of them so they couldn’t attack.

“Scent memories stay with you until death! I wanna burn her smell into olfactory center of my brain!”

The three of them got a lucky hit on the zombie and disabled it and then Kazuki dove head first into the zombie’s ass.

“It’s impossible to make invisible things like that tangible!”[sorry this sounds dumb as hell]

“Gyaaaah!”

“Kappatured it!”

When Kazuki pulled the zombie’s shirikodama out, he saw the man’s desire to have a woman step on his nose right after she pulled boots off.

“Ahh… Spicy…”

“I see, he was searching for the smell of someone he cared about…”

“I’ve been found out!”

The kappa zombie of Nioino exploded.

>the man’s desire to have a woman step on his nose right after she pulled boots off.

no he's a kid in that pic

Oh is that what the novel spoilers said? I just thought he was in his late teens and hot here.

“Sara!”
“Sara!”
“Sara!”
“Sarazanmai!”

“Leaking…”

Kazuki’s secret that was leaking was from that night on top of the whale slide.

“Even if we wear different clothes, and even when we grow up, you and I, Kazu-chan, we’re connected, from beginning to end, in a big circle.”

“Haruka…”

“Ehehe. Kazu-chan, wanna go home together?”

Haruka’s words reminded Kazuki of who his real family was. And after that he retrieved his matching patterened clothes from the trash. His parents watched him as he did with relieved expressions on their faces.
Things returned to normal, almost as if nothing had happened.
Kazuki got even more serious about soccer and he and Enta started getting called the Golden Duo.
Time passed and before long it was the spring break before 2nd year of middle school.
The soccer posters in their shared room had started to fade.

And Kazuki met a woman on his way home from practice.

“Kazuki…!”

When the fragrance of sakura gently enveloped him, it unlocked a long lost memory. This should have been the first time he’d ever met this woman, but something about her smell was so familiar––

“…Mom?”

Kazuki’s birth mother carried a sakura-scented sachet.

“Why…?!”

Kazuki realized something in the middle of the leak. He realized what the thing that had flown out of Haruka’s pocket actually was.

“I got it baaaaack!” [this is the zombie talking]

That was the first time they failed a mission.

Clatter clatter clatter…

An earthen-ware kettle boiled.

“You did not defeat the kappa zombie, so no plate of hope for you, kero. I’m so steamed I can brew tea on my belly, you idiots! Kero!”

Keppi was brewing tea in his belly to express his displeasure. [ヘソで茶を沸かす this is another stupid pun that I didn’t really try on, sorry]

“And of course, I won’t be restoring you to human form either, kero.”
“What?!”
“Tch…”

Enta and Toi were naturally not very happy to be stuck as kappa.

“…I don’t care if I ever turn back.

Kazuki muttered softly.

“Wh-What are you saying, Kazuki…”
“Haruka knew. I’m sure of it… He knows that I’m not really his brother…!”

And thus Kazuki confessed the rest of what was revealed during the leak.

>“I got it baaaaack!” [this is the zombie talking]
wow gg

>mc leaked 3 times
So I expect Enta and Toi to get at least 1 more leaking scene each.

Well, there's still time for that considering they still don't have five plates

I want to be spitroasted by old and young aniki.

>adult toi ends up looking more gangsta than his brother

somehow.

“You joined the soccer club? And you made forward? That’s wonderful!”

His birth mother, who had shown up out of nowhere, was beautiful and kind, and smiled a lot. Kazuki was trying to hide his confusion at first, but the more they talked, the more he opened up to her.
When he was younger, Kazuki often worried about what it would mean if his birth mother was actually a horrible person. But ultimately those fears transformed into a feeling that, if his birth mother really was a horrible person, then that was all the more reason for him to treasure the family he had now.
Right after Kazuki was born, her husband, Kazuki’s father, died in an accident. And, pushed to the breaking point mentally where she couldn’t even take care of herself, Kazuki’s mother followed her father’s advice and gave up her son.
It wasn’t a situation anyone could really be blamed for.

“The truth is, I was so young and inexperienced back then. I had just lost the love of my life. The world just seemed so dark all around me. I wanted to run away from the pain of reality. But even after I gave you up, you were the one thing from back then that was always in my thoughts…”

His mother honestly told him the truth of why she’d come to see him. And about her current circumstances without hiding anything.

“You see, Kazuki, I have a family I care about just as much as I care about you… I know it’s selfish, huh? But I desperately wanted to meet you…!”

She said and hugged him. He couldn’t even smell the sakura anymore. In it’s stead, he remembered the smell of sweet milk and sunshine.

“…I care about my current family very much too. I have a really cute little brother.”
“Kazuki…”

He wondered what his mother thought about that. He had no way of knowing, but both of them smiled.

“Let’s make this reunion our secret. I’ll see you off at the station tomorrow, so…”
“Sure…”

wow this chapter's kinda long. it's hard to imagine how they're gonna fit this in one episode even if there's no OP and ED

>tfw no older Toi or aniki bf

It's almost over, but I'm sure some stuff will be cut or abbreviated.

I'm actually surprised that his birth mom showed up

Ah I see. Thanks for the hard work, user!

I figured that was for the best. I had a family that was more real to me than any “real” family after all.

The next day, Kazuki slipped out of the house without any of his family members noticing.
His real mother would be going far away to return to her family from Tokyo Skytree Station.
He thought back on the previous night, and concluded that he was right, his current family meant more to him than anything. So he didn’t want to worry them about this, and decided to keep the meeting a secret.
But despite his best intentions––

“Kazu-chaaaan…!”

As he was waiting for the signal to change at the crossing on the east end of Azuma Bridge, he heard Haruka’s voice from across the bridge.

“Haruka, why are you here…?”

Haruka caught up to him, out of breath.

“Where are you going? I wanna go with you!”
“…You can’t.”

He couldn’t bring Haruka with him to see off his birth mother.

“Why? Is it because I’ve been bad?!”

Haruka would occasionally come up with these strange explanations for things.

“No one ever said anything about that.”

He had to hurry, his mother’s train was leaving soon.

“I”m sorry! I”m sorry! I’ll be a good boy, so… Please don’t leave me, Kazu-chan!”
“Shut up.”

He impulsively slapped away Haruka’s outstretched hand.

“Ah…”

Both of them gasped at the same time.
But Kazuki was out of time. If he didn’t leave Haruka here, he would never see his birth mother again.

The signal had turned green before he realized it. Kazuki hardened his heart and started walking across the crosswalk, leaving Haruka behind.

The light started flashing.

“Wait… Wait! Kazu-chan…!”

rip

Attached: 1533096870821.jpg (707x707, 60K)

He didn’t remember remember much after that.
The red light.
The way the setting sun illuminated the road.
The slender legs splayed out on the asphalt.
The puddle spreading over the ground, an eye-searing red, red, red.
Everything seemed like it was underwater, in slow motion.
Kazuki could barely breathe.

The Kappa square was sunk into a deep silence.
Kazuki’s forlorn voice burbled up like little bubbles and then vanished.

“I regret it so much… And Toi was right, it was all my fault. …It’s my fault Haruka can never walk again.”
“But… But, look…”

Perhaps unsurprisingly, it was Enta who spoke up.

“Just, like… it’s not like it’s all your fault, Kazuki…”
“That’s what everyone said. Dad, Mom… Even Haruka!”

After that response, Enta held his tongue.

“No one blamed me…! Even though I destroyed everything…!”

Toi just watched without saying a word.

“That’s why. That’s why I had to punish myself… I decided that I’d spend my whole life with a “fake” family to make up for it. But… They all just kept treating me like I was their real family…”

Enta began to cry.
It felt like he’d just been told that no one could ever get close to Kazuki now.

“Every time I see Haruka in his wheelchair, I can barely breathe… I quit soccer, but it’s not enough to make up for it, I stole Nyantaro… Pretended to be Sara… I connected with Haruka…!”

Through his tears, Kazuki spilled his last confession.
It was the truth he had never told a soul until then.
Even Kazuki himself had looked away from that darkness in his heart.

“I did it all for Haruka? What a blatant lie… I… I deceived Haruka to protect myself…! I…!”
I want to connect, but I can’t let myself.

And that's chapter 5.

>but I'm sure some stuff will be cut or abbreviated.

For episode 4 that was screen in the Noitamina cafe early, they didn't animate the interlude that rain bit with Reo. I saw some nips wondering if it was cut or pushed to a later episode.

Fuck... shit now im excited for ep 5. thanks user!

And here's the pastebin for this chapter /QrN9wiFj

Chapter 6 is the last one and it's a wild fucking ride. I'll probably get on it tomorrow if there's a thread around. Although I may get lazy and just summarize parts because a lot of it is very visuals/action-focused compared to these other chapters and that shit is annoying to translate and honestly not very satisfying to read compared to seeing it (at least the way these books are written).

Personally, I feel like the only real place for it in the first 6 eps, if it's included at all, might be as a cold open for 5 or maybe 6.

>Personally, I feel like the only real place for it in the first 6 eps, if it's included at all, might be as a cold open for 5 or maybe 6.

I hope so, leaving that part out from the anime might be a little odd in terms of story telling and it isn't a long scene.

Toi? Kazuki starts calling Toi by his first name now?

Oh, shit, sorry, no that should be Kuji. I'm just an idiot and should have probably gone to bed a few hours ago.

>And here's the pastebin for this chapter /QrN9wiFj
>Chapter 6 is the last one and it's a wild fucking ride. I'll probably get on it tomorrow if there's a thread around.

Nice and thanks.

This is a pretty big moment for Kazuki. Instead of the secret being forcibly leaked, he ended up confessing the whole truth himself.

this explains a lot of why he does such roundabout ways to connect with Haruka. thanks user have a great sleep

So the main difference with kazuenta and kazutoi is that Enta seems just happy to coddle Kazuki and comfort him, regardless of what he's done. Enta seems quick to react and doesn't properly think through what he's saying, just what he thinks Kazuki wants to hear.

Whereas Toi isn't afraid to call Kazuki out, but he's never cruel about it. He wants Kazuki (and Enta) to recognize how their actions aren't only hurting themselves but the people around them. Toi also chooses to be silent at times which is his biggest difference to Enta, he allows the other characters to figure out the mess of their emotions instead of just jumping straight in with empty words.

I'm pretty sure there was an interview (with Ikuhara or the other script writer i think) somewhere about how out of the three, Toi was the most mature one, followed by Enta and then Kazuki. It's definitely displayed in ch. 5

Thanks for the rollercoaster, user!

Because Toi probably genuinely cares about them even if he won't admit, he does his best to comfort them and accept them even with their secrets out in the open

He is basically playing a older brother role like his brother did for him to them Also he is probably Ikuhara's real self insert

Thanks!

Thanks so much, user.

>Enta acts like a retard because he's a faggot

Kazuki's retarded choices are on another level. They're both dumbass kids though. Toi is as well, even if he's the most graceful about it.

Enta did nothing wrong.

he raped someone

Toi is treated as flawless baby here.

According to Enta's VA in Sarazanmai radio show, Ikuhara is extremely particular about the flute sucking sound. He had Enta's VA did about 20-30 take of flute licking sound to the point that the VA didn't know which one that Ikuhara used.
Suwabe even felt a little bit repulsed at Ikuhara's specific requests just for the flute scene.

Who the fuck cares

Me. Because I want to see the LN fully translated.

Been on a roll this week, might as well take advantage of the momentum:

Chapter 6: Haruka

Yes, it happened last night.

“I’m glad our zombie is such a tenacious one this time.”

Reo was in a good mood, fiddling with a photo as the elevator rose. The man in middle of the photo, Nioino, hadn’t disappeared.

“Indeed. Now I can finally leave my post.”

Reo’s expression soured at Mabu’s comment.

“What? …Maintenance again?”
“Yes. It is my lifeline after all.”

Whether Mabu had noticed the precipitous drop in Reo’s mood or not, he was operating exceedingly normally.

“Hah! That’s a good one! You just like doing things that make you feel good, don’t you?!”

Reo spat, his words brimming with distain, as the elevator came to a stop.
They were back in their usual police box.
And Mabu began walking toward the door, without a moment’s hesitation.

“Don’t be ridiculous. What good will come of prioritizing personal feelings?”

After Mabu’s figure melted into the inky black of night, a brown fist hit the wall of the police box.

“As if you would know the first thing about that[feelings/putting feelings first]…!”

Niisan is a based MGTOW

Nice, it's the same person who started the summaries on Tumblr right?

I wonder if Mabu grew up sheltered since there's a big contrast between him being seen as pure with homeless, dirty Reo when they were younger. That, or Reo fucked him too hard and Mabu turned stupid.

Attached: IMG_20190427_083904.jpg (393x584, 37K)

“Good morning! Happy every day! Even happier with lucky selfies! Azuma Sara, dish!”

Things were less cheerful than usual as Asakusa Sara TV played in the living room. Haruka hadn’t started eating his breakfast and just silently stared at the TV. His father, watching the situation, asked a question.

“Have you heard anything from Kazuki?”

Haruka’s mother, holding her coffee cup in both hands, shook her head.

“I got a message saying he was staying at Enta’s last night…”
“Huh… You know, now that you mention it, he does look a little like her.”

Haruka’s father was looking at Sara dance on the TV.

“Yeah, maybe that’s why he got so obsessed with her…”

“Now, then, today’s lucky selfie item is…”

Haruka’s parents couldn’t see his expression from where they were.

“Oh my, my~? It’s a sachet again today, dish…”

In Haruka’s lap was the headdress of Kazukis’ Sara costume. The real Sara had picked it up after Kazuki ran the previous day and handed it to him. Haruka’s heart didn’t even quiver even though his beloved idol was right in front of him. He just thanked her and Sara calmly nodded.

“Well, I wish you good Saraluck today as always!”

“…Kazu-chan.”

I'm deliberately doing this anonymously, but no I'm not from Tumblr.

I see, thanks!

Nii-san wants Toi to protect his purity.

Weird, for me it doesn't show a kindle version

Haruka seems to be the most perceptive and emotionally mature boy in this series.

Yeah I think he notices a lot more than anyone gives him credit.

Oh, I just selected kindle version in the search and it showed up. I'm a brainlet. Thank you.

What are you thinking of CR subs, user? Am I being to petty for disliking it? Not talking about the ep 1 anoko/atsui stuff, but in general. I'm having trouble with Sarazanmai. I know they are lazy and don't convey Japanese the best way, however I'm very upset. I like their app because is easy to watch anywhere I can indulge friends to binge with me so usually paying is not an issue but now I'm wondering if it's worth supporting a staff who does such shit job.

Thanks user, I hope you drown in kisus

I hope you guys are ready for... slimy kappa sumo?

“Crunch, crunch crunch, crunch crunch, crunch crunch, crunch crunch…”

In the kappa square, Toi and Enta, who were still in kappa form, were at a complete loss for words. Kazuki was stress eating a massive pile of cucumbers.

“Crunch, crunch crunch, crunch crunch… Cucumbers are delicious! So much better as a kappa than as a human!”

Toi looked on at Kazuki, who was in higher spirits than he had ever seen so far, with pity.

“He sure lost it fast…”

“That’s what we call a kappa’s high, kero. It’s a symptom that can happen when [a human] remains in kappa for m for an extended period, kero.”

Keppi had given up too.
Kazuki was still stuffing his face obsessively with cucumbers.

“Being a kappa rules!”

To-ton, ton, ton, ton…

“In the east corner Kazuki of the sea~ In the west corner, Entayama~”

Keppi announced sumo-referee style, standing in the ring that had appeared in the middle of kappa square along with the brisk beat of a taiko drum.

“Face your opponent~”[this sounds like some sumo thing, I’m not super familiar with]

Enta, who had a topknot now, came to his senses as he did the ceremonial stomp.[I’m sorry I don’t know shit about sumo terms, especially in English]

“Sumo doesn’t have anything to do with this, does it?”

Kazuki, with the same new hairstyle, joined him in the ring.

“Oh it has everything to do with this!”

[Kepi makes a sumo call to initiate the match, I gave up on trying to make it English]

And thus the final round between kappas Kazuki and Enta began.

Thanks again tl user

nobody cares about Enta

Does the novel have any pictures inside?

Someone save Enta from himself

The two kappas grappled, struggling against each other with all their might.
They started sweating.
Drip, drip… the kappas’ sweat hit the arena floor.

“Ahh, haa… Kazuki’s skin is rubbing up against mine…”

In contrast to Enta’s expression of ecstasy, Kazuki was serious about trying to win.

“Come at me with all you got, Enta!”
“K-Kazukiii…”

Their kappa skin was getting progressively wetter.
Squish squish squish…
Dribble dribble dribble…

“I-I can’t… go on…”
“You’re pathetic, Enta! Aren’t we the Golden Duo!”

Kazuki thrust his knee between Enta’s legs and pushed up.

“Aaaaah~~!”

Enta was tossed spectacularly out of the ring.
At which point Enta realized.
This had been another one of his fantasies.

Unless they cut them from the digital version, no. No illustrations.

Enta...

Enta didn't stand a chance. We already know that he's bad in a fight, and Kazuki attacked a vulnerable spot.

“Enta!”

But the fantasy didn’t end there.

“Are you okay? You’re not hurt, are you?”

Kazuki was holding out his hand.

“Huh? Is this part of my fantasy too…?”

He pulled on the stick of gum Keppi had suddenly offered. [I think I’m missing a joke here]
And snap! His fingers were caught.

“Ow! It’s not a fantasy?!”

Sumo referee Keppi bowed reverently.

“Being a kappa is the best!”

“Kero!”

As the kappa locked arms and began to dance, they saw Toi behind them sweeping the ring.

OLD MEN

It’s because he’s not 14. When he turns 14 he will become shitty like all boys do.

“And now for the news, dish. The ‘Asakusa Scented Bag Incident’ continues from yesterday and is being investigated as the work of an organized crime ring in Asakusa.”

The screen outside the Asakusa tourism center was reporting on last night’s incident.
Toi looked up when he saw it and muttered,

“Hey, if it’s still making the news today, is it still happening now?”
“It couldn’t be… Oh crap!”

Enta abruptly shut his mouth when he started answering without thinking.
In the flurry of everything that had happened, he had forgotten that they were in a big fight up until they got abruptly turned into kappa.
Toi didn’t seem to be particularly concerned about it anymore, and Enta’s decision to avoid him entirely seemed like the right choice.

“Hmph!”

Toi just rolled his eyes at Enta’s very deliberate attempt to ignore him.

“I know! No one can see us when we’re kappas, so doesn’t that mean we can get into Hanayashiki for free?”

Enta made a very Enta-like suggestion as the four of them arrived at the little park where that public bathroom was.

“Oh, found a ball!”

Enta started playing with a soccer ball someone had left behind.

“Isn’t this…”

Kazuki smiled and answered Toi’s comment,

“Yeah, this is the bathroom I always used to become Sara. Man, what an idiot I was to dress up as an idol girl! Hilarious, huh!”
“Well, you were trying your best in your own weird way.”
“Enough of that! Alright, let’s go have some fun! I love being a kappa!”

Toi sighed at Kazuki’s transparent attempts to feign cheer.

Meanwhile, Enta was pretending to play with the soccer ball, all the while working on an elaborate plan. Even if Kazuki was just feigning his good mood, he was a lot more energetic than usual.

“Today I might be able to get Kazuki to accept my pass real naturally…”
“Hey, Enta!”

He turned around and saw Kazuki running toward him.

“Pass to me!”
“Are you sure? You said you had nothing to do with soccer anymore…”
“Oh but I have everything to do with it! Let’s bring back the Golden Duo!”

Enta responded without hesitation to the words he’d been waiting to hear for so long.

“Kazuki, catch..!”

Enta kicked the ball high in the sky and Kazuki jumped, landing a magnificent overhead kick on it.

“Enta! My Miracle Shot is aimed right at your heart!”

The next instant, the projectile, fired from Kazuki’s golden right leg, nailed Enta right in the stomach.

“Gahh…!”

The ball, however, didn’t change course and shook the goal net.
Toi, who was playing goalie, looked frustrated.

“Nice shot!”

Even as he coughed up blood, Enta was happy.

“Haa, oh no, this isn’t good. My fantasy went too far again…”

As Enta was snapping himself out of his day dream, Kazuki called out to him.

“Hey, Enta!”
“This is it, just act natural, real natural… Kazuki, catch!”

The ball made a fwump when Enta kicked it and flew through Kazuki’s unmoving legs.

“Sorry, I’m just headed to the bathroom.”

Enta’s shoulders drooped when the ball bounced off the wall.

“It’s never gonna happen, huh…”

Someone have mercy on Enta

He means that Toi's kisses are so tempting they're just like the devil. Ikuhara told me, don't bother him about it

So Enta's feelings are treated like a joke now, great. He's just a meme character.

Toi/Kazuki for endgame. As much as I like Enta, he's very much still into his delusions and even wants to "exploit" Kazuki's fake good mood to get what he wants. Toi on the other hand is very much being sympathetic towards Kazuki, seeing his act of fake joy with pity.

>"maintenance" is his "lifeline"
>he was "operating" exceedingly normally

So Reo definitely made some sort of faustian bargain here and turned Mabu into a robot/classic voodoo zombie to keep him alive, didn't he.

Literally none of these are going to be endgame.

I think that's just how Enta copes

Ikuhara will pull a fast one on us soon and someday make one of Enta's fantasies a reality

I still can't believe how fucking gay this anime is.

That would be cute. Enta is sure it's not real, but it is.

As he stared at the bathroom door locking, he heard a voice at his back.

“We can’t let him keep doing this.”

Enta snapped back at him.

“I don’t need you to tell me that… I know!”

Enta and the others arrived in Sumida River Park.

“There’s a really good cucumber spot just over there! You like cucumbers, right, Kazuki?”
“Yeah!”
“What’s a cucumber spot…”

Just as Enta was thinking his plan was working a little better.
Kazuki stopped in his tracks.
He was looking at––

“Nyantaro! Come out!”

Haruka in his wheelchair and his father.

Tk, tk, tk, tk, tk…! [kazuki’s kappa feet slapping against the ground]

The remaining three grumbled as they watched Kazuki off in the distance.

“He ran away…”
“Figures…”
“Kero…”

Guys, I think Enta might be gay.

From the novel spoilers he isn't really evil or doing all of this out of enjoyment. So yes, looks like he fucked himself over into a bad situation.

“Sorry for being late with your food, Nyantaro.”
“Mrow~”

Nyantaro meowed as he chowed down on his food, seemingly to say he didn’t mind.

“Hey, Nyantaro, Kazu-chan’s gonna come home, right…?”

But neither Nyantor, or anyone, could answer that question.
Haruka suddenly pulled out his phone.
Nyantaro had just started to nod off after he finished his meal.

“I hope this reaches him…”

Haruka whispered like a prayer and hit the send button.
Some noise ran across the phone screen and a red heart mark appeared.

“Huh? When did I download that app…?”

At that point, a large shadow came over Haruka.

“Who’s been a bad boy?”[as an aside this is echoing Haruka's sort of out of place comment when he chased Kazuki down before the accident––asking if Kazuki was leaving because he was "bad"]

He looked up and saw a man in a police uniform standing there. He had brown skin, jagged teeth and a daring smile––it was Reo.

“Mr. Policeman…”

CHILD ABDUCTION TIME

Reo leaned up against the wall and started eating ningyouyaki from the paper bag he had with him.

Haruka asked anxiously, “Are you going to arrest me…?”
“What makes you think that?”
“I stole Kazu-chan’s smile away…”
“Who’s Kazu-chan?”
“My big brother. He hasn’t come home since yesterday…”

Haruka had the headdress in his lap when he confessed that.

“Huh, sounds like you and me are in the same boat. He left me yesterday too…”
“Are you a bad boy too, Mr. Policeman?”

Haruka’s words felt like an attack to Reo for a moment, but he quickly laughed it off.

“Hah! As if! He’s the bad one. He’s been betraying me all this time with that calm look on his face. He’s like a doll that’s had all his emotions drained away…”

Reo squeezed the now cold ningyouyaki in his hand.

“I want Kazu-chan to smile…”

“…Huh?”

Sensing Haruka’s gaze on him, Reo turned to look him in the eye.

“Then why don’t you show me…? Whether the door deep in your heart is desire… or love…?”

Reo held his big hand over his head. And Haruka’s eyes slowly closed.

“The future belongs to those who have connected with desire…”

Just as Reo was picking up the sleeping Haruka,

“Hissss!”

Nyantaro woke up and started hissing at him.

Reo glanced at him and muttered, “Back off” under his breath.

“Meooooow!”

That’s all it took and Nyantaro went flying through the air.
Reo picked up Haruka and vanished from the riverbank without any interference.

Reo's bad luck with cats strikes again.

Reo, you can't make a family by continuously picking up kids off the street.

>Nyantor

Dad is going to be in big trouble with Mom when he gets home and says that he lost their other kid.

But how else will he and Mabu have kids if Mabu doesn't want to have a baby with him anymore?

Did he punt Nyantaro?

He appears to have used magic to do it, so sort of.

“Snap out of it already!”
“No!”

Toi and Keppi looked on as Enta and Kazuki argued in an infinite loop. Kazuki was clinging to a flowerbed along the river bank and Enta kept trying to pull him out. Over and over.

“Let me go! I have nothing to do with Haruka anymore!”
“You know, Haruka has been… [so worried] about you this whole time… Gah!”

What finally put an end to their loop, was Nyantaro falling from the sky. Nyantaro landed neatly on Enta’s head and frantically started cleaning himself.

“Nyantaro! Why are you here…?”

Kazuki was astonished when he got back to the pier. [er like that little wall where Haruka always sits]

“Haruka… is gone…?!”

Haruka’s wheelchair sat empty where he had just been. And in the outside seating area of his usual coffee shop, Kazuki’s father was passed out on the table.

“You’re dad’s knocked out!”
“Tch, who could’ve…!”

Toi started running around the area looking for anyone suspicious. At which point, Kazuki’s phone got a message.
Their kappa shells were basically a portal to another dimension, and anything important placed inside it would be safe, even from water. Kazuki opened his shell, took out the phone, and was shocked by what he saw on the screen.

Toi is empathetic towards both of them and pities them like the sad faggots they are

“Brrrrrrrrring! Brrrrrrrring!”

Suddenly Keppi turned into a black rotary phone that started ringing.

“Ew gross!”
“What is it now?!”

Keppi pulled the receiver off his head and took the call while Enta and Toi watched.

“Yes? Hello, kero… Yes, yes… Understood, kero.”

Click! He hung up and then announced,

“I’ve gotten some information from a reliable source. …Yasaka Haruka has been kidnapped by the Empire Army, kero.”
“Are you serious?! The Empire Army has Haruka?! …Wait? Empire Army?”

Enta was confused by the dangerous-sounding and unfamiliar term.

“The Empire Army are the enemies who destroyed the Kappa Kingdom, kero…”
“What are they after? Why did they kidnap him?!”

Toi wanted answers.

“…To kill him and turn him into a kappa zombie, kero.”

Two of the boys were taken aback by what Keppi said, but,

“I’m not gonna let them!”

Kazuki shouted.

He was practically a different kappa than he had been before, as his eyes gleamed with strength.

“I’m going to save Haruka…!”

When Reo got back to the police box, Mabu had already returned from maintenance.

“Reo, where were you? And who is that child… I believe you were told not to take any unsanctioned actions.”
“Hah! You’re one to talk.”

Reo couldn’t hide his irritation with Mabu anymore.

Haruka was still asleep when Reo sat him in a chair.

“We’ll open this door for you…”

Reo ignored him and pulled out his gun. Mabu didn’t say another word.

“Desire?”
“Or love?”

A large taiko drum appeared above Haruka.

It was kind of Reo to put him to sleep so he's not traumatized by the experience.

How can the kappas extract desire from the kappa zombies if their desire has already been extracted by the cops to turn them into kappa zombies in the first place?

Reo's still pissed about Mabu running off on his own. I want to fuck this petty slut.

It seems like the otters "extract" the desire in a sense that they release it from the owner's secrecy/inhibitions, which is what transforms them. The kappa's take the shirikodama, which is the desire organ, from the zombie, and it kills them.

“The otter empire?!”

Enta’s hysterical voice echoed down the Sumida River at night.

“We kappas have been in a long and drawn out war with the otters, kero.”

They were in an area of the river surrounded by a semi-circle of aquatic plants.

“Come with me, kero.”

Splash! Keppi dove into the river.

The crescent shape wall seemed to go on forever.[depth-wise]
The plate on Keppi’s head shone, lighting up the area in front of them, but they couldn’t see the bottom of the river.

“Why did we get dragged into this?”

Toi asked, trying to think through the situation.

“Because what both forces have been stealing… is the desire energy that is stored in shirikodama, kero.”

Suddenly, faded images started to appear on the wall.
It was an illustrated history of the kappas and the otters.

“Once the Otter Empire robbed the Kappa Kingdom of all its desire energy, they set their sights on humans, kero…”
“So does that mean you’re the last of a fallen kingdom…?”

At some point, the shaft turned into a tunnel, and they surfaced from the water.
The light from Keppi’s plate was the only thing illuminating the dark tunnel.

“I am the only one who can produce the ‘Plates of Hope’. If the Empire found out about me, they would try to kill me, kero.”

His secret was that he's a womanizer/adulterer, right? Why does the dialogue make him sound like a serial killer?

I don't trust Keppi.

Me neither, I think he's probably misrepresenting things at least somewhat

Well he apparently led a woman to suicide but unless that was his intention (didn't sound like it) I'm not sure what the dialogue is referring to

Is it a play on words like "fileting kisu fish into thirds" = "collecting kisses and breaking hearts"? Becuase he both fishes and can apparently butcher fish well, and he enjoys womanizing+supposedly tried to commit marriage fraud and caused that suicide.

Well I wouldn't be his friend either way

The kappa zombies die when the 3 of them take their shirikodama instead of returning them back to normal, that alone makes it very suspicious and not good.

There's a lot of stuff that's popular in Japan but never catches up among the gaijins.

Indeed. The boys haven't questioned that yet, but they don't know that zombies used to be people, right?

It could also be that many people watch the show on other websites rather than CR

Asenshi subs are out.

This, but unironically.

They see zombies' memories and desires when they eat their shirikodama.

They're already dead, that's why they're zombies.

Every time. Reading the novel doesn't help that much

Attached: ikuharaexperience.png (693x390, 364K)

In this case, the novel ends before it gives you enough detail to really put the dots together. The novel has actually followed the plot of the anime exactly so far though.

Yeah I know, still it doesn't tell everything being shown in the anime. If it was just the novel, without, people would be clueless. Lots of scenes are ambiguous, the endings are vague, meaning we still need to watch the show to know. It's meant to complement the anime, not to spoil everything. The songs also play a big role, they complement the plot, but don't tell the whole story

Yeah basically. It's a pretty different experience even if you have basically read the script beforehand.

They could see the light of an exit in the distance.

“Waaaaah!”

When they went through the exit, they found themselves inside a large structure. Suddenly, gravity lost its hold on them and the kappas were launched into a seemingly bottomless ravine.
On closer inspection, the structure, with a big white frame around it, was transporting an immense number of boxes. Almost like some kind of large distribution warehouse.

“What is this place…”

Keppi answered as he fell with them.

“The Otter Empire’s secret base, kero!”

Keppi’s tentacles wrapped around Kazuki and the others.

“Whoa?!”

And the next instant Keppi had turned himself into a parachute.

“Where did they take Haruka…?”

“They pack everything into boxes, kero.”

“You mean we need to check all of these?!”

“We don’t have that kind of time!”

“What the?!”

While Toi and Enta bickered, Kazuki was thinking.

“What about…”

He pulled his phone from his shell and placed a call.

Briiiing… Briiiiing…

Toi and Enta watched with baited breath.

“Please ring…!”

Oh I see

Attached: sarazanmaienging.jpg (560x958, 163K)

What happened to the reaction image for episode 3?

He could hear a phone ring somewhere in the distance.

Riiiing… Riiiing…

Where though? Which box was it…?

Among the seemingly endless boxes flowing on conveyer belts was one with the word “Spring[Haru]” written in the heart on its side.

“I found it! It’s that one…! Ah?!”

He had finally found Haruka’s box when it fell from the conveyer belt into a big pile of boxes being carried away by a red crane.

“Haruka!”

Kazuki and the others chased after the crane. They slid down the frame of the structure, running as fast as their little legs would carry them, but the distance between them and the crane only grew.

“Ah! Stop!”

Kazuki, who was at the head of the pack, abruptly stopped.
The scaffolding was broken.

“What do we do…”

Toi grabbed Kazuki by the nape of his neck and tossed him as hard as he could.

“Hmph!”

“Wahh?!”

With a slap, Kazuki landed on a piece of scaffold that continued where the other one was interrupted.

“Hyup!”

“Gfu..”

Toi was tossed after him.
Kazuki shouted when he got up.

“Enta!”

Enta held Keppi up and waved him around.

“Go, Kazuki! Don’t give up on Haruka!”

It was a battle against time.
Kazuki decided to charge ahead.

boxes are the key to all of this

This will be so fun to see animated.

What the fuck is wrong with Enta.

He gay as fuck.

He's a teenager wrestling his crush while naked

>implying you didn't had wet dreams as child

Suddenly police lights and sirens went off.

“The gate…!”

He could see an iron gate coming down ahead of him.

“Damnit…!”

Toi did an impressive slide and got right under the gate.

Ka-thunk…!

Kazuki and Keppi managed to get through the small gap in the gate that Toi had made.

“Kuji!”

But the next second a sturdy fence had come down between Toi and Kazuki.
Toi said, forcing a smile, “Jinnai and I will catch up to you…”

The utility elevator Kazuki and Keppi got on started to descend.

“You can still get him back… So run!”

Kazuki thought over Toi and Enta’s words in the elevator.
He couldn’t waste their feelings.

Ka-chnk…

[this is going to get confusing from this point because this is a chase scene + weird Ikuhara visuals]
The elevator arrived and Kazuki tumbled out onto a giant, cylindrical floor.
A long bridge spanned the whole area.
And the crane carrying Haruka’s box was just descending from above.
Just as the crane reached the bridge it stopped in mid air.
It was surrounded by some kind of taiko drum like engine burning black flames.
It seemed almost like some kind of sacred ceremony.
Kazuki started running across the bridge and got so close to the crane.

“Haruka… I’m almost there…!”

And that was when it happened.
Ka-chink…!
With that merciless metal sound, both ends of the crane opened.
And the next instant, all the boxes in the pile went flying.
It all seemed to be happening almost in slow motion, Haruka’s box fell into the gaping black maw of the abyss right in front of Kazuki’s eyes.

“Haruka! Harukaaaaa!”

Kazuki’s shout was sucked up into the floor and vanished.

Puff, puff, puff…

One by one the flames of the taiko drum engines went out.
Almost like lives being extinguished.
Kazuki stared blankly and crumpled to the ground.
Toi and Enta froze on the scaffold on the other side.

“No way…?”
“Damnit…!”

Kazuki was white as a sheet and that’s when the voice came from behind him.

“Do you want to save Yasaka Haruka, kero?”

He turned around and it was Keppi.

“Can I…?”
“If we transplant your shirikodama, you can, kero. That will bring Yasaka Haruka back to life, kero.”
“…Really?”
“You have no other options, kero.”

Before Kazuki could say anything, Toi shouted from across the room.

“Wait! What happens if he loses his shirikodama? Won’t he die like those kappa zombies?!”

Enta reacted to the comment too.

“You can’t! I won’t let you!”

Keppi had gotten up on the end of the crane at some point and started to explain.

“Humans are connected by the shirikodama. If they lose it, they can’t connect with anyone, they’ll be knocked outside the link to the world, kero.”[that last bit is probably a big key phrase and I probably handled it badly so here’s the JP 世界の縁の外側に弾かれる]

Kazuki mumbled back Keppi’s words.

“Outside the link… to the world…”

“Indeed. It would be like the human known as Yasaka Kazuki never existed in the first place, kero. All of the memories, events and things associated with you will disappear, kero.”
“What! That’s even worse than dying!”

Enta shouted at the horror of it.

“Will that mean all the kappa zombies we defeated will be undone too…”
“No, you can’t do it, Kazuki!”

Kazuki didn’t respond to Enta’s cries.
Instead he asked Keppi something.

“So would that mean… Haruka’s accident wouldn’t have happened either…?”

Kazuki flashed back to that day in his mind.

“…You are correct.”

A small smile formed on Kazuki’s lips as he hung his head.

“Oh… Huh…”

Kazuki shot up, he had no more doubts.

“I want you to give my shirikodama to Haruka.”

HOLY FUCKING SHIT KAZUKI. I'M ACTUALLY SHOCKED.

incest?

For once, no

Is it incest if you share a shirokodama

Well, there's only one ball so they can't be touching

Does this mean kappa can't be gay if they were humans who had their balls removed by Keppi

Or are the balls inside Keppi and likely touching

So basically

>Keppi caused the mass destruction of the Kappas except for Sara who he was engaged to
>Sara escaped to the otters for help and they made her into a idol so she could give constant descriptions of her "prince" in the human world so Keppi can be found and stop whatever evil plan he has
>also he is blaming the Otters for what he did and keeping Sara's existence a secret

It's Sara's kappa.

BASED. Thanks user!

His voice was quiet, but both Enta and Toi heard him.

“Understood, kero. Then jump into that abyss, kero. …Click.”

Keppi pushed a button and the crane transformed into a large hoist.

“I am holding onto your shirikodama inside my body, kero. In order to transplant it, its connection to you must be severed, kero.”
“…Okay.”
“Kazuki! Stop!”
“Don’t you move a muscle!”

Enta and Toi shouted and came running.
Kazuki slowly reached for the chain on the hoist. The cold of the metal cleared his mind.[oh shit we pulleys]
That’s right, I was always on the outside of the circle to begin with… Everything would have gone well if I hadn’t been around…
He thought back to what Haruka had told him.
“Kazu-chan, you and I are connected from beginning to end in a big circle.”

He looked back as he put his foot into the hook on the end of the hoist.

This is my last chance… To make up for the fact that I can’t connect.[つながれない僕が、つぐなうための……。]
Click.
Kazuki hit the down button and the hoist began to move with a metallic sound.

“…Don’t worry. Haruka will forget everything and walk forward into the future. And Enta, you’ll forget me too…”
“I don’t want to forget you! Stop this, please… No! Kazuki!”

Toi hurried after Enta.

The hoist kept moving down.

“Tch! We’re too late…!”

Toi had pulled the emergency break.
But Kazuki’s figure just continued to get smaller.

“Kazukiiiiiii!”

Enta’s cry echoed in the darkness.

Hers it's different, it's Keppi.

It's another Kappa.

A trio of Kappa

Sara's kappa is the cutest thing I've ever seen in my life.

I thought that that scene is meant to show that Keppi is made aware of the creation of the zombie.

Wrong pic, meant this
The only kappas confirmed are Sara and Keppi, tho. Why add another one?

Will this be relevant to the kappa mastermind?

>The only kappas confirmed are Sara and Keppi, tho. Why add another one?

There's a fan theory going on about Mabu being kappa. and on twitter the cops worked for kappas.

Or the fact that you have the rule of threes in comedies, you have three acts in a movies typically...

Is that Victor?

This thing is so cute

Is Sara’s kappa even a kappa though? It doesn’t have a beak like kappas do. I’ve been thinking that Sara’s mascot thing is an otter.

The logo for the show is literally three circles. There are other times three comes up to, first example being three hearts on one of the otter drums before it turns to a larger drum with one heart during the extraction scenes.

Though I assumed it just refered to the three main characters, it's not too much of a stretch to read more into it.

Oh, another is the otter app on the phone being three rows and three columns down.

Worked for kappas or they were just kinda just taking pics with kappas because its the shows theme? I don't remember seeing posts about them talking about working for them

Victor confirmed for wining the Saraplate

Worked for. They picked calls from ア and Mabu went on a mission for ア to investigate otters before disappearing.

A flash of fire burst forth from the muzzle of the gun.
The bullet Toi had fired hit the mechanical part of the hoist.

Creeeeeeeek…!

The chain that was lowering reacted violently and started to roll up.

“Wa-wawawaaaa?!”

Kazuki was thrown off the hoist into the air and dropped right in front of Enta and Toi.

“Kazuki!”
“Are you okay?!”

They grabbed Kazuki’s hands and tried to pull him up.
Once they got him up they saw he was breathing.

“Haa…”
“Give me a fucking break…”

The two of them could finally catch their breath when Kazuki said softly, “…Why.”

Kazuki had a dreadful expression on his face.

“Why did you get in the way?! This is what I want so just leave me alone! It would be better if I never existed.”

Smack…!

Before he could even finish talking, his right cheek burned with the impact of the hit.

“If you have enough time to spout that nauseating bullshit, think of another way!”

Toi shouted, clenching his fist.

No she already found her prince who smells like cucumber slime.

“Yeah! I’m not going to let you disappear, okay!”

Enta climbed on top of Kazuki as he lay on the ground.

“Guh…!”

Enta dangled a blue cord i front of Kazuki’s eyes as he groaned. It was the good luck band Kazuki had thrown away.[as an aside I’ve only been translating ミサンガ this way entirely because I can’t spell it in English and am too lazy to look it up]

“How…? I threw it away…”
“Haruka entrusted me with it! He hasn’t given up on you! He believes in you!”
“Haruka…”

Kazuki touched the band with trembling fingers.

“Determination: love. Box: to be returned.”

An announcement suddenly boomed through the floor.
Keppi noticed something at the bottom of the pit from his vantage atop the crane.

“Oh? He’s still alive, kero.”

One little box was dangling from a red crane that rose from the darkness.

“That’s Haruka’s box!”

The crane moved into another room.

“Harukaaaa!”

The three of them took off running. This time, they were going to get him back no matter what.
There were three massive duct openings in front of Kazuki where the crane disappeared.
The three of them each lept into one without even having to consult with each other.

Almost to the end now

Toi best boy every episode.

Toi continues to be best.

deaths come in threes

>Keppi tries to kill off Kazuki before Haruka is even dead
He's a menace.

Was this really confirmed directly to be kappa/Keppi related? I remember the posts from them before the calls, when the signs of the otters started to show up and the posts were starting to show, they were talking about "it's being spread without nobody noticing", "this place is no longer good". This post in specific I remember Reo saying it was unusual for them to get this kinda of call. Then weeks later Reo found a letter related to this, they had a fight, Mabu said it wasn't "that bad", left him cigarettes and disappeared. I was kinda thinking it was related to Sara.

If this it's related to Keppi/Kappa looks like there's something missing. Maybe the timeline of the events is out of order?
>On manga they find Sara and raise her, Reo has fangs and Mabu doesn't. They look like regular cops. Dream about her being taken away
>Their chara song mention losing fangs and "balls" made/makes someone just a discoloured corpse
>On twitter they once mentioned they took care of a kid
>On novel Mabu needs to get a fix or else he dies for good after the darkness shit, Reo helps him with this
>On anime they look like are under command of the empire of otters

Am I missing something?

He slid down the dark, steeply inclined duct alone.
Kazuki had no idea when it would end, so he thought back to what had happened that afternoon.
The moment he found out Haruka had been kidnapped, he had gotten a text notification on his phone.
It was from Haruka.
It was the longest message he’d ever gotten from him, and this is how it opened:

“Dear Sara-chan. This is my last message to you.”

He had written Kazuki a message even after he found out everything.

“Connecting with Sara-chan made every day with so much fun.”
“Since this is my last message, could I tell you a secret I never told anyone before?”

The slope suddenly stopped and Kazuki found himself thrown into a flat plane of darkness.
He got up and then continued to run forward.

“You see, I did something really bad.”
“I hurt someone who means a lot to my dear big brother.”

“No, Haruka… You didn’t!”

Kazuki shouted to Haruka who wasn’t present.

“I was so scared when I chased after Kazu-chan back then. I thought he was going to go far away.”

While Kazuki was running aimlessly, Haruka continued to sleep soundly in his box as it was moved. Tears filled his closed eyes.

“I picked up something Kazuki’s real mom dropped on that day.”

It was that sakura-scented pouch. It smelled just like Kazuki had lately.

“Oh, you wouldn’t happen to be Haruka, would you?”

Haruka, who was younger than he was now, screamed at her frantically.

“Don’t take Kazu-chan away from me! Go home! Never come back here!”

“She just smiled at me and said ‘don’t worry, I’m not going to do that’. Her face looked just like Kazu-chan’s too.”
“After that, Kazu-chan stopped smiling and even threw out his good luck band.”
“I knew it was all my fault, but I wanted to be with Kazu-chan, and I wanted him to smile.”

Kazuki tripped over his own feet.

The manga is a spin-off so it's better to leave it out. The novel is the anime in book form so it's the same thing.The twitter is set 10yrs before the start of the anime so only that could count as a prequel.

The manga happened and it proves Reo and Mabu are in love!

I didn't say it didn't happen I just said it's a spin-off therefore pretty pointless to try to link it up to the anime.

So without the manga Sara has no connection with Reo and Mabu. Still, all her lucky selfie tips are connected to Reo and Mabu murders before they are discovered, somehow she knows what they are doing. By the dance thing, looks like Keppi knows when the zombies are being made and leaks the info for her then?

Sara is an otter and her "kappa" is an otter because it has no beak. It looks like a kappa because kappas and otters are the same thing.

“Everything Kazu-chan did for me made me so happy.”

Kazuki scrambled back to his feet, and the blue good luck band fluttered around his ankle as he took another step forward.

“That’s why I’m not giving up.”
“I know Kazu-chan will come home. I believe he’s going to smile again!”

Faint light appeared before Kazuki.

“The exit…!”

The place Kazuki jumped out into was––
––a giant garbage dump.

When he looked up, he saw the crane that had Haruka’s box dangling off it, moving to the center of the area.
A strange structure made of several taiko drums was waiting where the crane seemed to be headed.

“There’s Haruka!”
“Kazuki!”

He looked over when he heard Enta’s voice and saw Enta and Toi appearing from their exits.

“We can’t do anything from here. What do we do now?!”

Enta called out to Toi who was at an exit further below him.
Toi looked frustrated, staring at the crane and drums floating in the sky..

“Shit. Is our only choice to backtrack?!”

Suddenly the drums started to groan.
The ominous noise of sharp blades started to come from within them.
Toi could see glimmering shards piling up beneath the drum’s hole.[sounds like the shredder in the child broiler]

“It’s a shredder?!”

The three of them immediately tensed up.

“Haruka’s going to be cut to pieces at this rate…!”

While Kazuki was flustered, Enta looked around the area.

“Isn’t there… anything we can use?!”
“Anything’s pretty broad…”

Miçanga is just the ball in the bracelet (it's a decorative piece of plastic) but nips are autistic and apparently call the whole thing by the wrong name, who knows why. You're doing a good translation. Source: I live in the country of miçangas

Interesting, I didn't know that. As far as I can tell, yeah, they use it to refer to the whole style of band in Japanese.

this looks more like what would be the final episodes than... Episode 6 (?)

I'm going to keep saying it, this is litterally a children's show aimed at fujoshi and faggots.

We use miçangas to make handmade band/bracelets but we don't call them miçanga, they are just the material. I guess it makes sense for them to call miçanga since it's different, but it would be the same as calling t-shirts as "cotton" if cotton was a very specific fabric.

I heard a rumor from people who had prescreened the fourth episode that there's going to be some diversions from the novel going forward.

Haruka is the best boy. Truly.

>nips are autistic and apparently call the whole thing by the wrong name
It's the same as "rubber straps" and "acrylic straps" which encompasses the whole item of a strap plus a chain, keyring, string, headphone jack, etc.

Learn something new everyday

No they didn't include the interlude scene from the novel, that's why some of them think that way.

Haruka is truly the best boy, I wish my wheelchair bound sister was as good as he is.

He is. He's got a pure heart and he's the best of all the boys when it comes handling his emotions.

Well that sucks, I hope they don't totally skip over that because it seems pretty important to the cops' story.

Damn, I'm so hyped to see this setting.

Yeah I some some nips were confused about it.

Like truly he loves his big brother and the way he behaved when he ended up crippled is so pure and very much like something a child would do in a similar situation with his big brother that he loves. I just he's so great and precious and like I hope when he turns 14 he won't be a piece of shit like all other 14 year old boys.

When Toi turned around as he said that, Keppi suddenly appeared.
After a pause, Keppi abruptly transformed himself into a ball.

“You can’t make an omelette without breaking a few eggs, kero. I’m sure it will pain you greatly, since I’m so loveable and cherished, but if you throw m––“

Fwump!

“Eep!”

Toi stomped on the now ball-shaped Keppi with all his might and then kicked it up into the air as hard as he could.

“Catch it, Jinnai!”

“Geooo…!”

The pass went to Enta as Keppi groaned.

“Oof?!”

Enta caught it with both hands and Toi called out to him.

“Pass it to Yasaka! He should be able to stop the crane with him!”
“Huh? But Kazuki…”

At which point,

“Enta!”

When he looked up, Kazuki was looking down at him with a serious expression.

“Enta! …Pass it to me!”
“Kazuki, asked me…!”

It was time for Enta’s wish to do another Golden Duo pass to come true.

“Pass!”
[more gross Keppi groans]

The Keppi-ball flew straight for Kazuki.
The crane carrying Haruka’s box stopped just over the drum shredder.

>Haruka’s box stopped just over the drum shredder.
I'm having child broiler flashbacks now.

Yeah that's exactly what the scene sounds like. Like child broiler + pulleys

No child behaves like any of these kids including Haruka, kids that age are selfish as fuck

Oh boy they better not skip it. It's the one that seems to have gotten a rise with Reo thinking of dirtying Mabu's hand that's why some of them went for the early screening and it's the main fuel for the Mabu is a kappa theories.

Knowing Ikuni, "dirtying his hands" is a metaphor for sex, isn't it.

As always.

I'm sure Reo does want to fuck Mabu a lot.

Who wouldn't? Mabu is beautiful. Reo was smart and made him his wife immediately.

Attached: 3812971985.png (500x378, 145K)

Does Mabu still cook for Reo, you think?

Pretty sure the point of Reo's character is that he's someone who purges desire but also acts solely on his desire for Mabu.

After he disappeared? Probably not, since Mabu's main motivation for cooking was watching Reo's face light up with joy. Since he's a zombie now, he probably doesn't care.

“I know you can be a little stubborn sometimes, but you can run straight for the goal, Kazu-chan!”[this is from haruka’s message––english doesn’t have enough punctuation for this shit]

“Nice pass, Enta!”

Kazuki got a running start and lept into the sky.

Ka-chunk…!

The crane opened and started to drop the box.
Enta and Toi solenmly watched Kazuki.

“You can be a little hard to understand sometimes, but I know you’re really so kind and warm.”[also haruka]

“Haruka… I’m never giving up on you again…!”

Kazuki launched one of his overhead kicks.

[more gross keppi sounds]

The Keppi ball hit Haruka’s box with absolute precision.
But in response to the hit, Haruka’s body fell from the box and was tumbling straight into the shredder.

Probably not while he's a zombie. It's nice and sad to think that the ningyoyaki Reo eats before he kidnaps Haruka is store-bought. It's in a bag, after all. Maybe Reo bought it wishing he could taste Mabu's ningyoyaki again.

Poor Reo. He just wants to be with the Mabu he loves again.

You're so cruel with the cliffhangers, dish~

Save your dads already, Sara.

“Kero!”

And the next instant, there was a thunderous roar and the blades of the shredder tore the box to pieces.
The pieces fluttered down and piled up in front of Toi.[note the pieces are described as falling サラサラ]
But neither Haruka nor Keppi were anywhere to be seen.

“Haruka…!”

Kazuki shouted as he looked up into the sky hopefully.
At which point he saw parachute-mode Keppi gliding down from behind the shredder drum.
And in his tentacles was a sleeping Haruka.

“I’m not the only one who’s been wishing to see your smile again either, Kazu-chan.”[also haruka’s message]

“Haruka!”

“You’re right in the middle of that big circle, Kazu-chan.”[haruka]

Kazuki spread his arms wide and caught Haruka as he slept.
His weight and gentle warmth filled Kazuki with joy.

“We did it!”

The three of them shouted for joy in the garbage dump labeled “Love”.[subtle]

“Sarazanmai!”

That night, in the Desire Field on Azuma Bridge.
Kazuki and the other kappa boys performed their greatest sarazanmai yet.

“Just like that!”

They even struck their usually somewhat awkward signature pose with unusual grace.
They weren’t hesitant about transferring the shirikodama this time either.
They didn’t care if their secrets were shared.

It may not have been visible or tangible.
It may have been unreliable and vague.
But the connection that they very clearly had in that moment, was shared among their mixed consciousnesses.

Just one little scene and the epilogue left.

“This really does feel more right after all!”
“You can say that again.”

Enta and Toi, who had regained their human forms, were talking normally in the kappa square.

“You know, um… I’m sorry.”

Enta sincerely apologized for everything up until that point.

“It’s cool… I don’t mind.”

Toi replied as he turned away from him.

Their issues resolved, they both turned to look at the one person left with his back to them.

Kazuki hadn’t said a word that whole time, as he felt his body to reassure himself that he was back to normal.

“…Would you have rather remained a kappa, kero?”

Keppi asked, looking quite beaten up from the repeated blows he’d taken.
And Kazuki answered, his hands groping his own face.

“…It feels so weird. I should be the same as I was yesterday, but everything feels so new…”

Enta and Toi just watched without saying a word.

“But… I am me.”

Kazuki said and turned to the two of them.

“Kazuki…”
“Yasaka…”[He just calls him お前 but yeah]

And what the two of them saw was an awkward, bright smile across Kazuki’s face for probably the first time.
And then Kazuki said for the first time, “Thank you, I’m so glad I have both of you in my life…!”

End of chapter 6. Epilogue next.

Fuck yes thank you

Epilogue: Reo and Mabu

Reo and Mabu were floating back to back in a massive taiko drum filled to the brim with water.

“Our target was stolen from us and this location was discovered… Your failure has hindered our mission, Reo.”
“Don’t be so mad! That kid had ‘love’ after all. We can’t use that. …Heh, hehe, hahahahaha…!”
“Reo… What’s with you?”

Mabu asked, unable to understand his partner’s intentions.

“It’s all thanks to that kid that I got lucky!”

An image of Keppi rescuing Haruka appeared on a large screen behind them.

“I finally found it. Our hope…!”

Gosh I hope they are naked in this

Thanks, user.

Post epologue

Desire Lost, and the Beginning of Unending Night

It was year 333 of the Kappa Kingdom Calendar.
The end of lengthy war with the Otter Empire was in sight.
Crossing the river that separated Here from There seemed nigh impossible, but the Otter Empire broached the waters and invaded the Kappa Kingdom.
Keppi, the crown prince of the Kappa Kingdom, was writing in agony in his chambers.
The dark desire swelling inside him was on the verge of tearing his body to shreds.
In that moment, the entrance to the room flew open.
And Reo and Mabu, clad in black military uniforms appeared.
"We've found you!"
At the very moment Reo was about to rush over to him.
"The desire is... bursting...!"
Something dreadful flew out of Prince Keppi's body.
"D-D-D-D-Daaaaarkness!"
"Reo! Look out!"
Bwoom...
A rumble coupled with the sound of an explosion echoed through the room, and all functions of the Kappa Kingdom abruptly ceased.
An injured Reo cowered amidst the rubble.
"Why... Why did you protect me...?"
Reo cradled Mabu, on the verge of death, in his arms.
Mabu tightly gripped Reo's quivering hands and announced,
"Don't abandon your desire... The future... lies only in the hands of those tied to desire..."
And then all the strength abruptly faded from Mabu's hand.
"Mabuuuuuuuu!"
Reo's scream of grief echoed through the sky, dyed red from the fire consuming the Kappa Kingdom.
Not a soul knew what was to come of the two after that.
All that anyone knew for sure, was that the pitch-black despair seemed to continue endlessly.

And that's it for the novel.

Thank you very much for the translations.
Reo wants the plate-maker to save Mabu.

This is very cute but it makes me worried about what's happening for the rest of the series

Probably not. It's probably the same back-to-back pose they do in the OP.
