#update 163

[acidproofnotebook]

Update 163 (previously 162). Changes between online and print versions. Part 2

So, where we left off, it looked like a tense standoff between Genos, who wants to go back to the battle, and Sekingar and Waganma, who most desperately don't want to be ditched by an S-Class hero. Food Battler Futoshi steps up to offer a solution (revised version on top, old at the bottom).

Sekingar does some thinking before deciding to trust Genos (no equivalent in older version)

Rather than looking all cool-like, Genos wastes no time springing into action.

Update 163 (previously 162). Changes between online and print versions, part 1

Yes, we continue! Original on left, changes on the right. Not translated as of 26 Feb 2022. With several dialogue changes for this one, look for an update.

I will never hate Waganma for being less of an asshole, particularly as Food Battler has actually been cut this time

Of course, the super-dramatic fashion in which they're swept up sees no change

Food Battler is bandaged up as well, no miraculous escape from injury this time!

Murata remembers to consistently give Genos cheek pieces; woes of having a very complex model. Pity the animators.

Now here's a change; a much more knowing look crosses Genos's face as he concludes his talk with Sicchi. Puts a different spin on things.

Understandably, Waganma isn't keen to be ditched. Food Battler raises himself to offer a solution to the impasse.

In the interests of avoiding an awkward break, I'll finish this chapter in the next post

Translation of changes to update 163

Following up to this link, the changed pages and their translation are below. The translations are courtesy of a friend, so take them with a pinch of salt.

huff *dash* huff huff pant Waganma: Y-you okay? W: Did you suddenly lose weight?! W: You have a cut on your stomach too, don't you?! Food Battler: Don't worry about me. FB: His claws passed through the triple folds on my belly, so I'm fine. *boing* Waganma: That's a hell of a miracle! Food Battler: (to himself) Dammit... I can still move! FB: Keep burning, fat! *grab* FB: Whoa!

Waganma: You liar. WB: So you did get cut. *bip bip bip* Searching for enemies pant pant

Genos: I was planning to return to the action from the start. Genos: Whether you asked me to or not.

*click* *beep beep* Sicchi: ? Sekingar: The main priority of this mission is to ensure Waganma-kun's safe return. Sekingar: It would be a great help if Demon Cyborg-kun could assist us in escorting him, but... Genos: ...... Food Battler: It's not my place to say this but... FB: I would like Demon Cyborg-san to break into the hideout and help the S-class heroes. FB: Please let him go. Sekingar: What...

Food Battler: Even superpowers didn't work against that cat cadre. FB: I'm sure those who broke into the hideout are having a hard time. FB: Even Tatsumaki-san, who everyone thinks is invincible. Sekingar: But then who will escort Waganma-kun? Waganma: *nod nod nod* Sekingar: All the heroes above ground are injured. Genos: ...I don't really care, but... Genos: Can you handle it? Food Battler: I have a special body that instantly converts the food I eat into fat which it can burn immediately. FB: I should be able to heal my injuries faster as long as I pay the right price. FB: And there are rations here too. FB: That means I still have fat to burn! Waganma: Fatty...

Sekingar: ... S: If two S-classes work together, our chances of victory will rise dramatically. S: Is it a foolish decision to try to increase our chances of beating cadres in the hideout and avoid facing any strong pursuers until the mission is complete? S: ...Demon cyborg. *bip* S: Take this. It's data Drive Knight collected about the enemy's main forces. *grab* *click* Genos: Thanks for the info!
