| Hello, I'm new here but I hope i did alright. Thanks for the opportunity to apply. I probably fail though. haha. First Page Bubble 2: Is it really okay? We're four against one here. My Version: Is it really okay? It's four against one here! Second Page - On this page, all "PE" are meant to be "P.E." (Two periods are inserted, to show its an abbreviation) Panel 1 & 2: In the afternoon PE classes were started. This is the continuation from last story. My Version: In the afternoon, P.E. classes started. This is the continuation from the last story. Bubble 3: No, you can't Suzu-chan. After all, you're really late compared to the others. My Version: No, you can't Suzu-chan. After all, you were really late compared to the others. Bubble 7: Come on, you should at least memorize the multiplication table for today. My Version: Come on, you should at least try to memorize a multiplication table for today. Bubble 9: Cmon! My Version: C'mon! Third PageBubble 8: Tsk, so the real one's there. My Version: Tsk, so the real one was there. Fourth PageBubble 2: I cant believe it, she's doing a bunshin no justu and it moves differently! My Version: I can't believe it, she's doing a bunshin no justu and each ones moves differently! Bubble 3: Even if you say it, I said I'm a ninja. My Version: Even if you say it like that, I told you before that I was a ninja. Fifth PageBubble 1: I-Ikuto-sama..... My Version: I-Ikuto sama...(just one ellipsis.) Bubble 4: Ahaha no, no; you're kidding right? My Version: Ahaha, no! Nah... you're kidding right? (For those of you who disagree, allow me to explain. I believe that the repetition of 'no' sounds awkward, so i replaced it with colloquial variants((or synonyms)) of 'No' and added an ellipsis to achieve the same effect as a semi-colon. However, I'm probably wrong. Meh.) Bubble 6: I get it, Kunai-san has four twin sisters! That explains this! Yes, I knew it! My Version: I get it now, Kunai-san has four twin sisters! That explains it! Yes, I knew it! Bubble 7: We are four sisters, Kunai-nee is not a twin or a quadruplet. My Version: We're four sisters, but Kunai-nee is neither a twin nor a quadruplet. Closed your bold tags for you. for future reference, to close a bold tag you type [/b].

162 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- y: (it d be an easy win using that rice-cakes trap if we use it only for Suzu-nee, but together with Ayane, they wont fall for it) c: (what should we do, Yukino-chan and Mei-mei's are that two and Suzu's ribbon. and, Ohana-san's item is my target) t: [umu, we have to face them no matter what] c: (we have no choice, lets follow them while thinking our next plan) me: (yes) y: (yeah) to: [Is something wrong Mei-mei?] me: (I sense two people and one animal from that bushes around there!) t: [what!?] to: (Youjutsu!!

164 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- r: (so they re their bodyguard... I thought it wont be any problem with only Kuma-kuma... | Chikage surely doesnt mmiss a trick) shi: (my speed ability range is about 3 metres... they ll find us before we get them) r: (but we wont win this if we dont get Meme-chi's and Yukino's item) shi: (relax, we still have enough time anyway) shi: (no matter how strong they are, there be a time when they lose their guard | we ll wait until that time arrives) r: (oo, nice | looks like you could still say things in the ninja way sometimes) shi: (sometimes? that s cruel.. | and I said that I was a ninja) a: (why you... how dare you throw me away like some garbages!!) s: (you r persistent, I told you we ve succeed in getting Shino-chan's item so it s alright anyway)
165 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- s: (lets put that one aside) a: (dont put it aside!!) t: (pu) s: (lets put the most tough opponent, Machi-nee, as our latest target, next target is either Rin-chan or Shinobu-chan) s: (and so, who should we find first? Rin-chan or Shinobu-chan?) a: (grrr, so you want to keep pretend as if you r innocent no matter what eh...) a: (that s okay then... and for Rin, I already sent Den-den radish to search for her) [I ll remmember this one, just watch you later] (lets check it whether he found her or not) s: (eh? check it? how?) a: (fufufu, for us a shikigami user | we can see the view of what our shikigami is seeing) s: (wwoow, that s awesome!!) a: (actually I stole this "Easiest way to use your shikigami" from Onee-sama's room lately) (at last the time has comes for me to use it)
166 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- a: (I m a little nervous...) (here I come!!) a: (first, grab your face as hard as you could...) a: (goes around three times and say "woof!") (WOOF!!) a: (and then put the card on your forehead and recite "long distance viewing") a: (ooo! this s amazing, I really can view it) s: (and what do you see?)
167 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- a: (! Shinobu is with her!!) s: (really!? we re lucky, they re both our targets(h)) a: (what the heck you r talking, that uber-strong girl coupled with the super-fast one, we re unlucky) s: (ah, you r right) s: (but no problem, both of them will get to sleep at night, that time we ll get them) a: (well, yeah although Shinobu is a ninja she wont wake up easily once she s asleep) (then lets search for them with the guidance of my shikigami) s: (eh... you ll do that weird things again?) t: (pu) a: (how rude! the rituals written in this book really are the holy ones!) a: (first imitate ten different animal's voices)
168 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- a: (then do a back flip five times...!) a: (and land with your head first!!) s: (unyaa!?) a: (lastly, put the card on your forehead and recite "wakemi") (tl note: wakemi is a skill to create a new shikigami as a part of the main shikigami) a: (come forth!!) s: (waaa, he s cute(h)) a: (he ll guide us to the main shikigami) s: (heee, amazing. you re just like Machi-nee)
169 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- s: (but...) (I ve never seen machi-nee doing that weird rituals before...?) a: (?) [She put a fake manual completed with pranks on places where ayane would find easily (the truth is she only have to put the card on the forehead)] c: (that s Ayane-san's shikigami) y: (ah, the one who get delighted whenever stepped into or punched) me: (blush) (eeh!! Ayane-nee-sama has a maniac hobby like that!?) r: (aaw, I cant stand this anymore, Chikage and co are walking so slowly...) shi: (hey hey patience is what we needed in tailing someone) a: (looks like Rin is nearby after all) s: (be careful not to be found by them Ayane) a: (I dont want to be lectured by you for that!!) ?1: (what are they doing...?) ?2: (hmmm I really dont know, but it s so uncanny it seems that we cant get close to them that easily....)
170 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ma: (.....) (I have nothing to do...) macho: (ui) ma: (seem that they cant move now...) (there wont be any new development for awhile...) macho: (ui ui (h)) ma: (and here I thought to show my new shikigami I contracted last night) ?: (gaoo) [he s a "wakemi" too]
171 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ma: (ara, you found Ikuto-sama? | good job(h)) ?: (gaoo(h)) ma: (as expected, he picked the worst lots) (ufufu, poor Ikuto-sama(h)) ?: (gaoo) ma: (oh my, he already completed the east master and now in a battle with south master?) ma: (ufufu teru-teru macho, we ll go to Ikuto-sama's place) macho: (ui ui ui--?) ma: (there wont be any problem, anyhow no one would win this competition as long as they dont capture this) (and it ll be more interesting than just dazing pointlessly here) macho: (ui)
172 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- mi: (ara. someone s there...?) (or is it only my imagination?) mi: (aaa, I m tired walking around like that) (?) (it s so troublesome, I think I d wait everyone here...) mi: (ah) (yes!) mi: (how about making some ambush!!) (I ll make everyone who come here asleep with this medicine...) mi: (that way I ll get my targets easily without any hard work) (and I think I ll have some rest up there until then)
173 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [southern forest] i: (There!!) (I got you!!) meow: [you got the wrong one] i: (whaa!! that s close!!) i: (damn, how can I find the real one from all these fakes!?) meows: (nyan nyan nyaan)
174 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- i: (and catching one is this dificult, I cant just catch one by one...) (I have to find a way..) meow: (and when will you let go off me-nyaa) i: (aa, yes, sorry...) i: (nn?) meow: (nya?) i: (hou... | I see...)

(but can you catch me the real one?) meowm: (last week when I was asked to do this for the "hunting Competition" I prepared..) (the customs which looks exactly like me...) meowm: (and, I chosed the cats not only from their phisique) (but also the one whose body movement and speed are the fastest ones) meowm: (ufufu(m), this is the hunting competition for the first time in ages) (no choice not to enjoy this-nyaa)
176 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- i: (that s not...) (this too) (that one s too...) (!) i: (I FOUND YOU!!) meow: (nya!?) i: (ufufu....) (the real one is...)

(the movement of fake tails with the real one is of course different [and they re also a bit on the side]) [fake(it filled with cotton)] [the real one] meowm: (ah!)
178 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- i: (it s easy once you know the hang of it) meowm: (uhm, I see. that s the blind spot of mine) meowm : (however that may be, to find the real one from these many fakes when they re moving around at once) (and to put the differences of a litle movement of the tails...) meowm: ( guess that s what I should expected from a guy who get under the guidance of the west master-nya) (ufufu, excelent-nya. you re the winner) i: (yeah!!) meowm: (as with the promise, here is your medal) i: (where did you put that...) meowm: (ah yes yes, I want you to be careful) i: (yes, what is it?)

| ya i agree with SMX i also have made a PR test that is actually what proof readers do as opposed to QCing 3 pages with intentional errors. it includes translations and raws of parts of 2 different NA chapters and a chapter of ZnT. you (SMX) can keep it, ignore it, whatever the link to it is here_________________  |
