A healthy manga filled with healthy routines for a healthy living!
It's an off-week, no new chapter until next Thursday, but here are the previous two chapters as we collaborate! Let's light a beacon.

End of Chapter 18!
>>155837154
Danberu threads have been dying rather quick lately. Something happened? Did this mango lose momentum on /a/?
On to Chapter 19!
>>155837980
No, no. The last couple chapters were missed by our TL is all. Since this manga only doles out a chapter ever two weeks, and there's literally our one TL and rakuen's typesetter producing 100% the western product, it can be easily delayed.
It normally only gets a thread every chapter release, which is every other Thursday, so when thread is made every week without new content, I can see people not getting quite so exuberant.
I'm betting it will pick up excitement when Volume 2 goes on sale, which will be probably next month!
>>155837980
Translations are moving slower? Updates on Batoto aren't as fast as they used to.
And that's Chapter 19!
>>155838805
Thanks anon
I'll try to keep the thread bumped, today, in order for our TL to find it and post his work! After that, typesetter friend has his material to lay out two chapters at his leisure!
And here's a sneak peek into next week's chapter, for those so interested :)
>>155838863
Any way I can help, bro
Thanks, OP.
Hime is mai /fit/fu.
>>155838156
Thanks for replying.
How many people are at Rakuen? I've seen shit ton of series TL by them.
>>155839986
No clue! Ask the TP when he pops his head in. As the general OP of these threads, I kinda just make a thread here on 4chan every-other-week and help QC when the same anon who translates swings by and drops off his translation. The typesetter from rakuen sees the thread, takes the final edit and brings the work over to the group site and batoto. Basically, 100% of the east-to-west work is done in these 4chan threads by two completely unrelated dudes, an anonymous TL and a rakuen TP, just working out of love for the series.
>>155839333
And you've got excellent taste.

Seemed to have been a common theme in revolutionary propaganda of 17th / 18th century Europe.
Nurturing the new nation or something like that.
>>155837670
What's her name?
>>155843073
The closest thing I can make up is something like Nina Hoito.
Shiina meas tire in Russian

ジーナ ボイド
Ziina Boido
I can't say I know enough Russian to find a slavic equivalent.
If anyone wants to come up with names for
please, by all means, name 'em ITT
Here's her profile. She's Russian.
>>155843273
I screwed it up by calling her
>シーナ ホイト
It's not. It's
ジーナ ボイド
I like you know your stuff to find that relation but it's Ziina Boido. Xena Boyd or something. My fault.
>>155843367

>>155843581
Gina Void 17-years-old, seeking boyfriend.
She attends the Sambo class from the Moscow branch of Silverman's Gym.
She came to Japan to win the Arm Wrestling competition, thinking the prize money would pay for her travel expenses, and she could explore a little bit. She was known for being undefeated in her home country.
After losing to Hibiki, she decides within a few days to transfer from Kremlin West High School in Moscow to Koyo Women's High School in Japan as a study-abroad student.
She loves and respects Prime Minister Putin and her motto is, "anyway, do your best."
>>155843581
Zina is ok.
Boyd sounds retarded, but whatever. Just don't make it Bayda
>>155843865
Void makes her sound like a Kengan Ashura crossover.
>>155843865
>>155843866
Well, dang, there you go. I know enough Japanese to read the characters but not correlate meaning so hey, neat stuff.
Anything more Russian than "Gina Void" ?
>>155843942There's two KA crossovers (1 new, 1 old) in next weeks chapter. It's the Professional Wrestler Superstar and machojou's sister is referenced again.
>>155843865
>>155843979
>Anything more Russian than "Gina Void"
I vote for Zina.
>Kremlin West high school
Top kek
>>155843581
>>155843865
Uh oh
>>155843942
Berserk is appearing soon.
>>155843581
>>155843866
>>155844139
ジ is as much "zi" as it is "ji"
If anything, it's a little more emphasis on the hard start of "j", especially considering it's in katakana which is all loanwords.
So, while Zina might sound a bit more Russian to us, it's meant to be Gina.
>>155844439
It's also reminiscent of being a geminate consonant, so yes exactly. More emphasis placed on the consonant. It's Gina.
>>155844213
Void is a space pirate from Zebes.
>>155844439
>So, while Zina might sound a bit more Russian to us, it's meant to be Gina.
So be it.
>>155837154
Oh this time of the week. Almost home. Gimme a bit
>>155845485
You're a wonderful guy
>>155838488
Is that her stand, [White Russian] ?
>>155843581
>Ziina Boido
Probably Gina Boyd, that's a Scottish last name though.
>>155848564
This guy >>155843865
seems pretty convinced it's Gina Void since he's pulling information from somewhere.
And I can say I'm willing to agree with either Boyd or Void, since I've definitely seen ボイド and it was always "Void" in English.
>>155844439
>>155844599
I don't quite get it. Zina is a legit russian name. How is japanese pronunciation of the russian name relevent in a localization?
>>155840286
this is the good part of 4-chin, the non-cancerous stuff that makes putting up with garbage worth it.
>the "cute girls lifting cute weights" joke is actually a real thing
>>155849800
ジーナ
If Zina is a legit Russian name, common enough like Hibiki, Akemi, Satomi, then sure. Gina, however, is very definitely a common "foreign" name for a Japanese person to know and I frankly have never seen "Zina" before. Plus, do a google search of ジーナ and see what turns up.
>>155850453
Yeah, that's kinda what I like about $chanz; it makes projects like this a community thing. It starts here, gets revised here and without need for fame or recognition, it gets "proper" publication with another affiliated group. Rather than yell at any one group, as niggerstream is known for with their localisations, we can hash it out here until the thread dies. Like now with "Ziina" "Zina" "Xena" and "Gina."
>>155837154
The gym in this manga is too glorious to be real in real life.
I don't think a gym trainer or gym coach this enthusiastic exists in real life.
Someone like Coach would not be content to remain a mere city gym coach and would probably be an Olympic athlete.
Did you guys like settle on a name or something?
>>155843581
>ジーナ ボイド
As a Slav, I can help a little. Her name should be something like Zina Void. Zina is a normal Russian name tied to Greek legends. And her last name is literally "Void".
>>155852133
Making it a "z" sound over a "j" sound certainly is more unique, foreign and allows future "Warrior Princess" jokes. I'm fine with that if others are.
>>155850890
>asked for this in a thread
>someone pointed out this manga
>have been following it ever since
I need more /fit/ manga and anime in my life.
>>155853974
You're gonna make it
>>155854426
Working on it now, but I'm using a textfile instead today
>>155854676
I love you
>>155854535
let's take a break in the steam, bra
HnG uploaded another chapter of Kengan Asura today, too.
>>155857485
Fuck I'm gonna lift for her and my /fit/fu Akemi!
Okay I have to go somewhere, but here's 18. 19 later if thread's still up or next weekhttps://mega.nz/#!M0YQXLbR!b3RyX5Ci9l4UvdK_q3ZjOTpFblTe2YkOXr9x3ewAY7c
>>155848564
There's a russian pornstar who goes by Krystal Boyd.
>>155858018
Amazing. Thanks for the work, friend! There will of course at least be a thread up next Thursday.
Will QC immediately and post when done.
>>155852133
>Zina Void
I endorse this, and want it made official, until the manga author himself provides us with the proper romaji or russian spelling.
>>155858922
Deal.
Almost done, will post shortly, Chapter 18.
I hurt my wrist like 3 weeks ago and it still hurts when I lift something heavy. Am I fucked?
>>155860064
Stress fractures are real. Tendinitis is real. Never know. If it's bad news bears, get it checked out. Swollen? Bruising? Limited ROM? Don't make it worse.
>>155860387
Not swollen or anything and I only notice it when I lift something heavy.

[The day of the Arm Wrestling Tournament]
[The strongest people from each branch of Silverman's Gym are gathering.]
[They're mainly "heroes" but...]QC: The translation specifically names "heroes" as "male participants" so instead of lengthening the text box to show it, I changed it to "heroes" for the classically male power fantasy and seeing if people disseminate the difference of heroes and heroines given it's about Hibiki. Plus, they're supposedly very powerful, given the illustrations, as heroes tend to be.

......hey
[Sakura Hibiki]
Why're you guys not joinin' in!?!?!
[Uehara Ayaka]
No way, no way. I didn't stand a chance of winning if I couldn't even beat you.
[Tachibana Satomi]
I'm going to decline too...
Traitors!!!!!
Then there's Akemi...!
I didn't think that she'd catch the flu...
[Souryuuin Akemi]
I wanted to participate...
Maaan, this is rough. I gathered fewer people for the women's division than I planned...
Normally from here on, we would be following the official rules* and put you in a different category, but...
>*Aside from weight division, it's also divided by right and left hand.
Seriously no other girls?
>>155837335
Page 4
There's only two people in the women's division, including you, Sakura-san
[Winner]
(Left)[***a Void] (Right)[Sakura Hibiki]
Immediately the final round!!!??
If Souryuuin-san didn't pull out, we had planned on doing a three-person round-robin, too...
There were three people MAX!!? Can't you try harder advertising this!!?
Hey hey, Sakura-san,
think about it.
If there are fewer participants, then you'll get closer to victory, right?
Y-you're right!
I'm gettin' closer to the home theater set!
There probably isn't a girl who can beat you in the first place.
I wonder about that?

>It's way too local
Anyway, she's pretty experienced in arm wrestling.
Looks strong, too.
>...so what if she's experienced!!
>I'm definitely getting that prize money!!
[Hibiki is the type of person who gets motivated when she gets greedy.]

Women's Division Final!
Sakura Hibiki, from the Silverman's Gym in Kubukukuri Town!
And from the Silverman's Gym in Moscow,
Zina Void!
What did Machio-san say...? Russia's filled with champion arm wrestlers.
She might be tough...
...I won't lose.
I need that money, no matter what it takes.
>This girl...! Does she have a reason?
I'm gonna have to cover my budget deficits going from Russia to Japan.
>It was more expensive than I thought.
Ah. What a surprisingly basic reason.QC Note: This is the first time we've seen/heard where the story takes place! Kubukukuri Town!
>>155837490
Page 8
Okay, the women's finals!!!"
Let's begin!!!!!
In arm wrestling, there are two very different styles of offense.
>>155837536
Page 9
The over-arm (hook) and the hanging-arm (top-roll). This can be further subdivided, but the major ones are these two.
[Zina Void (Looking for a boyfriend)]
I'll explain them each.
First, the over-arm.
It's a technique where you enfold your opponent's wrist and attack by covering it from above.
Competitors who overcome their opponents with strength like to use the over-arm.
Huh? "Tell us what you like about Japan?" Okay... The fact they have 4 seasons? Why did you ask me that just now?
Back to the conversation. The second one is the hanging-arm.
>>155837581
Page 10
Try to pull on your opponent's thumb and use your whole body to pull it towards yourself.
Imagine yourself pulling on your opponent's arm and shaking up the triangular structure between their shoulders, elbows, and arms.
If you cause disorder in that balance, they won't be able to use their strength well.
Force them into a position where its hard to utilize their strength, and defeat them...
That's the hanging-arm.
My specialty is the hanging arm.
There are a lot of people who misunderstand this, but you can't win in arm wrestling with arm strength alone.
Huh? "What's my favorite Japanese food?" Do I have to answer that now?"
>>155837670
Page 11
Technique is essential to win in arm wrestling!
What's with that stereotypical Russian image!!?
And aren't you taking too long with the explaining and reminiscing!!!?
[Arm Wrestling strategies are applicable to regular arm wrestling, too. Try them out and be careful not to get injured!]
>>155837706
Page 12
>Is she the same year as me?
>She's got some bad luck.
>I've never lost to a girl my age.
>I'm gonna take that prize money, with thanks.
Are you two ready?
>Also... why did the referee strip his clothes off?
>Some Japanese rule?
Okay then...
Reaaadyyyy
>>155837768

We're
frozen!!!?
Th......this strength...!
It's like.......!!!

Russian tundra!?

GAME SETQC Note: I'd actually prefer this page just get a subtext translation typeset to showcase the cool and dramatic japanese font. That's me, though.
>>155837839
Page 16
Congratulations! The winner is Sakura Hibiki-san!
Yeeeaaaahhh!!!!!
>I completely lost...
Uraaaa (Banzai) Sakura.
Horosho (Great) Hibiki.
Hibiki... why don't you buy some clothes to change into before getting that home theater system?
Huh!? Why did they rip!!?
I don't remember any of this, okay!!?
This girl is slowly parting ways with her humanity...
[Hibiki takes one step closer to Machio's state-of-mind.][TN: "Uraa" is a Russian cry]
>>155837875

[Next Day]
Wheeeww... my DOMS finally got better.
It's amazing that you won!
Overwhelmingly.
No no.
It wasn't as easy as that.
Just when we were leaving, the girl said...
"Let's fight again one day, Hibiki."
It was something out of a battle manga.
So she completely acknowledged you as a rival.
I would have liked to meet her.
Well, but wouldn't that be too much?
It looks like it'd be a huge airplane fee.
>>155837906
Page 18
(Hey)
Sakura Hibiki
I ended up studying in Japan. I won't lose next time!
It's not like, this wasn't just for revenge... no way, right?
What a beautiful rival relationship!
I dunno if that's a rival or a stalker...
[Zina Void joined the muscle training buddies.]
>>155837956
Page 19
Afterwards
[She bought a home theater set with the prize money.]
Yeah! I'm gonna install it now!!!
During installation...
I don't have any room to do stuff!!!!!
[Hibiki]So I turned my bedroom into a movie room.
And now I sleep in the living room.
[Ayaka]That's the right thing to do if you're a movie-maniac.
>She prioritizes her movies over herself...
The end of Chapter 18, all translated! Rakuen TP typesetter, chapter 18 is all set for you!!
I like how we got the name of the town this manga is set and I also like the author calls the (now 5, 6 if you include Machio) girls "muscle training buddies." It's cute.
>>155860840
You're the man!
>>155860449
If you're not getting it checked out for some reason, maybe get a brace to limit its use in the meantime.
And yes, don't fuck yourself over by using it.
>>155858018
>come back from lifting
>new chapter TL out
>>155860505
TL posted
Nice, thanks brahs.
>>155863363
TL is a great guy!
I'll be heading to bed, now. I haven't seen the typesetter pop in so I dunno if he's seen the thread yet. Little bumps can help. I hope TL can get some time to look at chapter 19 and for ch 20 next week!
>>155860505
Not sure about the hero thing personally. Might rub people in the wrong way. But if you say so
Second week of 5/3/1/, today is squat day. May the cute goddesses of gains be with me today.
>>155851089
It's common. It's a short and more casual way of saying of Zinaida(Зинаида).
What turns up in google is irrelevent when we have context of the usage, and as Japanese don't have a 100% equal sound to zi, the ジ is the closest they could get.
>>155862372
>>155860064
Might be something here that helps.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWsoIgHzsEM
>>155865849
I had a little accident, this has nothing to do with my technique but thanks, I guess.
>>155866006
I see, good luck anyway.
>>155860672
>>Also... why did the referee strip his clothes off?
>>Some Japanese rule?
Personal Trainer-san is best.
