Kareshi Kanojo no Jijou by Tsuda Masami Source: Tankubon 9 Translated: Dianne (DiDi) Act 42 Act 42 unmei no kuruma The vehicle of fate ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer: Kareshi Kanojo no Jijou is owned by Tsuda Masami and Hakusensha. This is a fan translation and no money is being made off of this. Notes: These translations are *loose* translations. I've translated them so they make sense, not as much as you may understand everything word-for-word. Why? One, it doesn't always make too much sense. Two, I've been told I can be too strict on it sometimes, and I should just translate to vernacular. Mind you, I'm still trying to be as accurate as possible. If you've found a translation that is closer to the dictionary meaning, yet still makes sense, please don't hesitate to inform me. Thanks. Additional notes: This is the second half of Act 42, for now.. Please refer to Chas's translation (marked "C1" in the KareKano manga page) for the first half.. : text in bubbles * floating text > sound [] translator's additional notes.. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Page 184 * DISCOURAGED --- Page 185 * WA---------------------------- Guys passing by: !? * Wa-------------- * Aya, dragged out * (Kano) Sensee --- Page 186 * It feels goo-------------d * It feels like we've achieved more than just the best. * The experience of accomplishing something with friends has broadened my world. --- Page 187 * (stressed) I've caught up to you. * (stressed) And because of this, you don't have to be alone anymore. * (Tsubaki) Sorry for coming in about halfway..
