Hey there! Due to the deterioration of Twitter as a platform, I've decided to start archiving my translations for Tokyo Revengers: Puzzle Revengers and Hypnosis Mic: Alternative Rap Battle on this account!
My translation queue triggers at 3:30am JST / 7:30pm GMT / 2:30pm EST. The entire queue is currently Tokyo Revengers, with Hypnosis Mic to follow next week.
This blog is still under construction, but if you'd like to read the translations up so far, head to my carrd here:
T R A V O L T A C U S T O M
That's all from me! If you have an event you'd like translated that I haven't gotten to, please send me an ask and I'll put it down for my queue!
It was the end of a meeting for the new novel… I was called for an urgent matter and visited Ramuda’s office.
I rang the doorbell. When I enter shortly after, there’s a guest with him… yes, it’s Dice who was also summoned by Ramuda.
Ramuda called the gambler over to play, who in turn begged for money. Despite how many times I’ve witnessed this scene, something feels off about it.
With a clouded mind, I jumped at the opportunity to head for the backwoods mountains when I was invited.
We follow the animal tracks and arrive at the peak of the mountain, overlooking the town of Shibuya. Not a single weed grows in the area. Nothing at all.
First, I was to play the demon, placing an empty can down that Ramuda had brought. Then I squat down and close my eyes.
I count down - 1, 2, 3… to 10, and open my eyes. Then as I prepare my guard foot to prevent it from being kicked, a dazzling light suddenly bears down upon us.
I can’t move my body… What in the world is this? I struggle desperately, only being able to move my eyes, as Ramuda and Dice walk up to me.
When the two lifted their hands to the sky, and the sky and earth were turned upside down.
Against the laws of gravity, my body was lifted into the air and beamed up into the source of the light…
I struggle, looking down helplessly at the ground, and realise why I had felt so discomforted.
Upon observation, there appears to be antenna stemming from atop Ramuda and Dice’s heads.
As I guessed, the two were aliens who had disguised themselves as Ramuda and Dice.
As soon as I realised who they were, the eyes of those two men looking up at me became distorted!
And then I woke up.
GENTARO (THINKING)
（荒唐無稽すぎますね。シブヤに裏山などありませんし）
（・・・ですが、王道のミステリーを描よりもＳＦ要素を含めたほうが楽しめるかもしれません）
(It’s too absurd, isn’t it? There’s no such thing as ‘backwoods mountains’ in Shibuya.)
(...But it might be more fun to add elements of science fiction than to portray just a mystery.)
GENTARO
ふむ・・・
Hm…
GENTARO (THINKING)
（世界観設定から考え直してみるとしましょう）
(Let’s rethink this from the worldview setting)
GENTARO
すみません、コーヒーをお願いします
Excuse me, one coffee please
WAITER
かしこまりました
Yes, sir.
GENTARO
どのような作品になるのか皆目見当もつかませんが・・・描楽しみがあるというのは作家冥利に尽きますね。
I’ve no idea what kind of work this will be but… it’s the writer’s delight to have the pleasure of actually writing.

KAZUTORA

MIKEY
ホワイトデーにエマに何をプレゼントするか考えてくれ！
We need to think about what to give Emma for White Day!
BAJI
はぁ？
Huh?
KAZUTORA
なんでオレらも一緒に考えねぇといけないのさ？
Why do we have to think about this together?
DRAKEN
オマエらもエマにチョコもらっただろ
You guys got chocolate from Emma too, didn’t you?
BAJI
めっちゃ義理だったけど
That was just her being polite.
KAZUTORA
びっくりするほどの義理だったけど
It was pretty much just being polite
MIKEY
エマを全力で喜ばす！これは東卍全体の問題だ！！
We're gonna do our best for Emma! This is a task for all of Toman!!
BAJI
でたよ・・・俺様マイキー様・・・
Here it is… Master Mikey…
KAZUTORA
ハイハイ！オレ、いいこと思いついた！！
Here, here! I’ve got a good idea!!
MIKEY
はい、羽宮君。
Yes, Hanemiya-kun.
BAJI
挙手制なのかよ
Are we raising hands now?
KAZUTORA
パーティーするのはどう? 日頃の感謝の気持ちをこめて料理とか用意してもてなすんだ
エマちゃんだけじゃなくて 普段お世話になってる感謝したい 人も呼んでさ
名付けて！ホワイトデーサンクスパーティー
What about a party? To show our gratitude, we can prepare some food and entertainment.
It'd be not just for Emma, but for the people who help us out that we also want to thank.
And we’ll call it - The White Day Thanks Party!
MIKEY / DRAKEN / BAJI
・・・
KAZUTORA
え、なに？微妙だった？
Eh, huh? Is that not good?
BAJI
いや・・・
That’s not it…
DRAKEN
思いのほか、まともなこと言っててビビったというか
We’re just surprised that you actually said something decent.
MIKEY
いーじゃんサンクスパーティー。それで決まりだ
That’s a good idea. A thanks party. We’ll do that.
KAZUTORA
やった！じゃパーティーのことはオレに任せるよ
ちょ〜 盛り上がるパーティーにしようぜ!!
Yeah! Just leave the party planning to me then.
Let’s make this party a blast!!
MIKEY
おう！よろしく頼む
Thanks! I’m counting on ya.
BAJI
な～んか嫌な予感がしねぇか？
You have a bad feeling about this, don’t you?
DRAKEN
嫌な予感しかねぇな
I definitely have a bad feeling about this.

I’m going to beat Mikey and get to the top of Toman…!

BEFORE BATTLE
MIKEY
一虎、これはどういうことだ
Kazutora, what is this?
DELINQUENT 1
うおりゃ！死ねや！！！
Uoryaa! Die!!!
DELINQUENT 2
テメェが死ねや！！！
Die, you asshole!!!
DRAKEN
ここはケンカ会場かなんかか？
Is this a fighting ring or something?
KAZUTORA
いやー、招待客はたくさんいた 方が良いよな~って思っていろんなヤツに声かけてたらさ
東京中の不良が集まっちゃったみたいな？テヘ
No, well, I thought it’d be better if we had lots of guests, so I went and asked a load of people.
Looks like all the delinquents of Tokyo have gathered, huh? Teehee.
BAJI
テヘじゃねぇーよ！こんな状況じゃエマやオフクロを呼べねぇじゃねぇか
This isn’t a ‘teehee’ situation! We can’t bring Emma or my mom here with this place like this.
KAZUTORA
場地、オフクロさん招待してたのか？なんだよ〜言えよ〜
Baji, did you invite your mom? What’d you say?
BAJI
うっせ！
どうすんだよ、マイキー
Shut it!
What do we do, Mikey?
MIKEY
起きたことは仕方ねぇ。全員ぶっ飛ばして。コイツら追い出せばいいんだろ?
It is what it is. We’re gonna beat ‘em all up. We just gotta kick them all out, right?
DRAKEN
ま、それしかねぇよな
Well, guess that’s the only way.
KAZUTORA
さすが、マイキー。オレも協力するぜ！！
That’s Mikey for ya. Lemme help out too!!
BAJI
当たり前だろうが。誰のせいでこうなったと思ってんだ。
Of course you will. Who’s fault do you think this is?
_ _ _ _ _
AFTER BATTLE
BAJI
これでやっと半分くらいは追っ払えたか?
We’re about half way through ‘em now, right?
DRAKEN
にしても・・・一虎。オマエなんて言ってコイツら集めたんだよ
ただ声かけただけでこんなケンカ祭りみたいな状況になるか?
Really… Kazutora. What did you say to get these guys all here.
All you did was call them here, and now it’s turned into a whole bloodbath.
KAZUTORA
あーそれは・・・
初めは東卍のマイキー主催のパーティーで幹部にお近づきになれるかも!? って呼びこんでたんだけどさ
途中でマイキーにタイマンで 勝ったら東卍のトップになれるって話に変わったみたいで
誰が最初にマイキーに挑むかを 決めるバトルの最中･･････みたいな?
Ah well...
At first, I told them that Mikey of Toman was hosting a party where they could get close to the captains.
Then halfway through it turned into ‘if you beat Mikey in a one-on-one, then you’ll become the leader of the Toman.
So they're in the middle of a fight to see who's going to challenge Mikey first... see?
BAJI
オマエな・・・
You what…
MIKEY
・・・
KAZUTORA
伝言ゲームって怖いよね。こんなに変わるなんて。アハハハハ
A game of telephone’s pretty scary. It changed quite a lot. Ahahahaha.
MIKEY
・・・
KAZUTORA
マイキー・・・怒ってる？
Mikey… are you mad?
MIKEY
怒ってねぇよ。オマエも悪気があってやったんじゃねぇんだろうし
I’m not mad at you. I’m sure you didn’t do it with any bad intentions.
KAZUTORA
マイキー
Mikey!
MIKEY
けど、責任はとってもらう
But you still have to take responsibility.
KAZUTORA
え？責任・・・？
Eh? Responsibility…?
MIKEY
残りのヤツらの片づけはオマエに任せた
I’m leaving it to you to clean your mess up.
KAZUTORA
え！？オレ一人で！？
Eh!? By myself!?
MIKEY
エマたちが来るまで時間がねぇ。任せたぞ
It won’t be long until Emma and the others arrive. I’m leaving it to you.
KAZUTORA
ちょっと! まだまだいっぱい いるんだけど!? オレー人はさすがに!!マイキー!!!!! Wait a sec! There’s still a lot of people out there!? And by myself?! MIKEY!!!!!
_ _ _ _ _
EVENT - PART 2
KAZUTORA
たしかにオレが悪かったけどこの人数を一人で追い出せって。さすがにヒデェよ・・・
It’s true that this situation’s my fault, but having to deal with this many people myself? That’s just cruel…
BAJI
まぁ、そういうなよマイキーは会場の飾り付けをしなおすってさ
Well, it’s not like that, cause Mikey’s gonna deal with redecorating the venue.
KAZUTORA
場地
そっか、みんなが暴れたせいで会場めちゃくちゃだもんだ
Baji.
Ah, I see. This place is a mess ‘cause of the rampage.
BAJI
そういうこと
Yeah, that’s why
KAZUTORA
いや・・・でも、あのマイキーが飾り付け！？無理っしょ！！え？大丈夫なの？
Wait… but, Mikey redecorating!? Isn’t that impossible!! Eh? Is that gonna be okay?
BAJI
どうせすぐ飽きてドラケンにやらせてるだろうな
I’m sure he’ll get tired of it eventually and leave it all to Draken
KAZUTORA
間違いねぇ
場地はここで何してんの？飾り付け手伝わなくていいのか？オフクロさん、来るんだろ？
That’s for sure.
So what are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be helping with the decorations? Your mom’s coming, right?
BAJI
さすがのオマエでもこの人数を相手するのは無茶な話だろ？
加勢して
Well, you can’t handle this many people, can you?
I’ll help you out
KAZUTORA
マジで！？サンキュー場地！！！！
For real!? Thanks Baji!!!!
BAJI
マイキーとドラケンに任せとくのも不安だし。さっさと終わらせて合流すんぞ
Though I’m not too sure about leaving for Mikey and Draken in charge. Let’s get this over so we can join them.
KAZUTORA
おう！！
Yeah
_ _ _ _ _
AROUND MAP
RAN
無敵のまいきー・・・たのしみだな
The invincible Mikey… I’m looking forward to this.
RINDOU
どこにいんだよ、マイキー。ザコばっかで飽きてきた
Where are you Mikey? I’m tired of all these small fry.
_ _ _ _ _
BEFORE BATTLE
BAJI
ふー、これで全員追い払えたか？
Whew, is that everyone now?
KAZUTORA
場地！！！あそこ！！灰谷兄弟がいんぞ
Baji!!! Over there!! It’s the Haitani brothers.
BAJI
六本木の灰谷兄弟か？・・・厄介だな
Roppongi’s Haitani brothers?... This’ll be annoying.
RAN
厄介とはヒデェじゃねぇかわざわざ東卍のために来てやるたんだぜ？
Pretty rude to call us annoying when we came all the way here for Toman, isn’tit?
BAJI
こっちは別に招待してねぇんだよ。わりぃがとっとと帰ってくんねぇ？
We didn’t invite you guys. Sorry, but can you guys just go home?
RINDOU
それはねぇだろ～マイキーとやり合あえるって聞いて来たのにザコばっかでうんざりしてたんだ
やっと隊長クラスに会えたのにノコノコ帰れねぇよ。なぁ壱番隊隊長さん？
I heard we'd be able to fight Mikey, but I'm tired of all these small fry.
I can’t be going home after finally meeting one of the captains. Right, First Division Captain?
BAJI
・・・ほんとめんどくせーヤツ呼びやがってこのバカトラ！！
...What a pain in the ass. It’s your fault for calling them here, IDIOTORA!!
KAZUTORA
はぁ！？誰がバカトラコノヤロー！！！
HUH!? WHO YOU CALLING IDIOTORA ?!!!
BAJI
テメェ以外に誰がいんだよ！！！
Who the fuck else?!!!
KAZUTORA
あぁ！？
HUH!?
BAJI
あぁ！？
HUH!?
RAN
いやちあんと、オレら放置？
MIKEY
Hey, did they forget about us?
オマエらが仲良しなのは分かったけどそういつら方付けてからにしてくんね？
I know you guys are friends and all, but can you get your shit together first?
BAJI
マイキー！
Mikey!
KAZUTORA
飾り付けは終わったのか？
You done with the decorating?
MIKEY
まだ終わってねぇ。オレとケンチンが二人でやるって無理あるよな
ケンチン、センスねぇし
We haven’t. And there’s no way I can work with Ken-chin.
He’s got no sense of style.
DRAKEN
誰がセンスねぇだ、コノヤロウ。装飾の花、ボロボロにしたオマエに言われたくねぇよ
Who you saying has no sense of style, you bitch? I don't wanna hear that shit from someone who ruined the floral decorations.
MIKEY
そういうわけださっさと全員追い出してみんなでやった方が効率的だろ？
That's why it'll be more efficient if we work together to kick 'em all out. Right?
KAZUTORA
効率的・・・なんか頭良さそう！
Efficient… What a great idea!
MIKEY
だろ？
Right?
RAN
その会話が頭悪そうだけどマイキーとやり合えるならなんでもいいぜ
This conversation sounds stupid as hell, but anything to have a go at Mikey.
RINDOU
どっからでもかかってこい！
I don’t care about any of this, so come at us!
_ _ _ _ _
AFTER BATTLE
MIKEY
よし、全員方付いたな。さっさと飾りつけしてエマたち呼ぶぞ
All right, that's everyone. Let's get these decorations up, then call Emma and the others.
RAN
エマ？
Emma?
KAZUTORA
マイキーの妹だよ。マイキー意外とシスコンだから
Mikey’s little sister. Mikey’s a bit of a sis-con, ya see.
MIKEY
一虎、余計なことしゃべんな
Kazutora, stop talking.
RINDOU
マイキーの妹・・・たしか可愛いってうわさだよな
Mikey’s little sister… I heard she’s supposed to be pretty cute.
RAN
へーそうなの？これからここに来るんなら確かめてから帰るから
Heeh, is that so? Well if she’s coming, then we’ll leave once we’ve checked her out.
MIKEY / DRAKEN
あぁ？
H U H ?
MIKEY
何言ってんだテメェ。いいからさっさと帰れよ
The hell you saying, you bastard? Just go home already.
RAN
エマちゃんに会ったら帰ってやるよ
We’ll go home once we’ve seen Emma-chan
DRAKEN
まだ、殴られた足んえぇみてぇだな
Looks like we haven’t beaten your asses enough yet.
RINDOU
あれ？なんかスイッチ入った？
Huh? What’s with the switch up?
RAN
ハハ！物足りねぇと思ってたんだけど相手してもらおうか！！
Haha! Thought we'd be going home with things unfinished, but we'll take you up on that.
KAZUTORA
・・・今日中にパーティー始められるのか？
…So we having this party today or what?
BAJI
無理かもな
帰ってオフクロに焼きそばでも作ってやるかな！
Probably not.
Think I’ll just go home and make mom some yakisoba!
KAZUTORA
オレも食べたい！腹減った！
I wanna eat too! I’m so hungry!
BAJI
自分家で食えよ！！！
EAT AT YOUR OWN PLACE!!!

準備運動にはなったかな？
Was that a good enough warm up?
RAN
いやいや、この程度肩慣らしにもならないだろ
Nah, it doesn’t even count as one.
2ND TIME
RAN
ハハハ。ゾクゾクすんな
Hahaha. Don’t be so nervous.
RINDOU
次はどういたぶってやろうか
Let’s see how you like this next one.
3RD TIME
RAN
さすが「無敵のマイキー」想像以上だ
As expected of the “Invincible Mikey”. This is even better than I imagined!
RINDOU
面白くなってきたな、兄貴！
Hey bro, this is getting interesting!
_ _ _ _ _
TRANSLATOR'S NOTE: Ran and Rindou are not romantically interested in Emma. This was very likely antagonising talk to get Toman to keep fighting them. In an official tiktok, Ran is shown not even acknowledging girls who try to give him gifts for Valentine's, so I interpret this as Ran and Rindou just messing with the guys.
