"Hi everybody!"
"This is Mao from superhuman fitness!"
"And I'm Endou Akira from Haegiwa 42"
"So today, we're going"
"To eat some super popular sweets!"
"Woow, so exciting"
[Right] In order to spread Superhuman Kung Fu to the world, Mao has been doing some advertisement jobs.
>>
"Mmmmm, so good, so good"
"Oh Mao-chan, you just eat whatever's out there"
"You gotta report on the food some more"
"Hmmm, but it's goood"
"You're such an airhead"

Endou Akira-sama

"So"
"What the hell was that?"
"Yeah"
"You just kept saying "So good, so good" like a broken record player"
"Yes, I'm sorry"
"I'm doing this out of the desperation to survive in this trade, and you dare mock me?"
"No..."
"The mere sight of you fooling around back there made my eyes burn"
"I am really, really sorry"
>>
>>161555185
Hina doujins when? Also, what happened to hobo-chan?
>>
"This suuuucks"
"Why did she have to put it that way?"
"I mean, it's so much better compared to literal garbage!!"
"Are you two actually listening to me!?"
"We are, but you just keep talking"
"And honestly, letting you sit there for a long time is giving me problems"
"Kuuuuughhh"
>>
>>161555752
Mao doesn't deserve this.
>>
"So apart from the franchising aspect, how is your staff doing?"
"We called for support from the mainland"
"And we're recruiting people who can speak Japanese"
"Our master from the mainland even declared that now is the time to strike"
"And that's how things will go from here"
"Thank you for today"
"Mao-san doesn't look very happy today"
>>
Mao chapters --> Suffering
Anzu chapters --> Healing
Hina chapters --> Plot?
>>
"Oh..."
"Honestly..."
"I've been worried about a number of things..."
"Oh is that so"
"Umm... could you hear me out?"
"Huh? Me?"
"Okay, we'll take our leave now"
"You're both girls, so why don't you talk about girly stuff?"
"Huh?"
Hey baldy, hold up a minute
>>
"So everyone's being so meeaaan"
"I'm doing the best i can toooo"
"I think you're doing a great job"
"Really?"
"Uhh... President Mishima,"
"Could I..."
"Think of you as a friend?"
"Yeah, I guess"
>>
>>161555726
>Hina doujins when?
I cant even imagine that.
>>
I'm glad I could help her with her problems and cheer her up.
"Can I call you Hitomi-chan!?"
"And tell me your contact info!!"
"Whoa"
"Mao-sama, you seem to be doing better"
"Yeeaaahh"
Mishima Hitomi
"Ufufufuffuuu"
>>
>>161555185
Hina is an oneesan now
>>
"Good work today, president"
"Same for you"
"And I got nothing to do for work anymore"
"So now I can..."
"Whoa"
"What the fuuuuuck...!!"
>>
>>161555752
Do they even like Mao?
>>
Mao
Thanks for today
Thanks for today
I'm glad we can be friends
I wanna talk to you again
When can I see you?
Huh? Why aren't you saying anything?
Heeeey Heeey
You okay? Did something happen?
Uuuugh
Uuuugh
Uuuugh
Uuuugh
Hmmm?
Oh. Oh god...
I should've waited to see how terrible she actually was!!
She's the front runner among dependents!!
Body slaaaam!
She's getting closer!?
>>161555410
Change title
>70: Front-runner of dependents
>>
I wanna just run...
But she's my client...
I am a machine...
A machine only capable
Of giving positive answers
>>
Mishima Hitomi
Mao
I wonder if I'm doing okay?
You're fine. Calm down, Mao-chan
You should just keep going.
You can do it! You can do it!
Oh yeah! Oh yeah!
Keep trying! Keep trying!
"Mao-sama, you've been looking great these days"
"Yeah! You see, I have Hitomi-chan"
"And she's aaaalways giving me some encouragement"
"She's giving me the hope to keep on living!"
>>
>>161555956
>>161556148
>>161556184
How much of a salary or pay does she have if she's in that position of the company and is the founder?
>>
I can't really put this well,
But is it okay to lie so I can get away from people?
It's okay to lie.
If you keep doing it, it'll become the truth.
How can I get along well with people?
First, you greet them.
There was a cockroach.
That's your enemy.
You gotta exterminate it now.
You have to give them divine punishment
For that is justice
"Heeey, Mao-chan, you dropped these in the hallway"
"Oh, those"
>>
>>161556333
NOT THE DOLLS
>>
"Hey, are you listening?"
"I'm telling you that I don't like your attitude!"
Uhhh, some annoying person is telling me annoying things.
If you have a big smile, it'll go well. You have the greatest smile ever, Mao-chan.
She... is not listening at all.
>>
Are these chapters meant to show how Mao's life is an eternal struggle? She practically went insane by the time she spent in that island.
>>
"Mao-sama"
"We may be doing performances for some programs"
"But it will feature some qicong experts"
"Huh? Qicong?"
"I'm not going to actually perform, am I?"
"Yes, we will meet some masters from Japanese Qicong dojos"
"Your powers stem from your psychokinetic abilities"
"So you should really just keep things to the pro fitness level"
"Okaaaay"
>>
"There"
"Whoa"
"Whoa..."
"Wooow"
"That is some really good technique handling! How did you do that!"
"This is qi"
"Then can I do it as well?"
"You would need some training for it"
>>
>>161555956
Oh shit, I should've expected as much from her
>>
Don't take this the wrong way, but here's a few things about your translation which you might want to note for the future. I'm overlooking minor changes since I know translators can always translate the same line in different ways.
1.
In >>161555595, the 何食べてもそればかり of the second line, the それ is referring to Mao only ever saying おいしい. As such, it doesn't mean "you just eat whatever's out there," but rather "You always say that no matter what you eat."
2.
In >>161556148, the subject of the sentence, どんなヤバイやつだってもう少し最初は調子見るよ, is not Mishima but rather the ヤバイやつ and the 調子見る in this context refers to the act of feeling someone out first. As a literal translation here would be inadequate, it'd be better to go with a more liberal approach by substituting clingy for ヤバイ. A possible translation then would be "Even clingy people would at least feel someone out first before clinging onto them!" This translation would then serve as a better transition to the next line, in which Mishima states that even among clingy people, she's the "front runner."
3.
Two issues to point out for >>161556989. First is the 今度出演する番組なのですが line is most likely talking about a single program that Mao will next feature in. So it should really be, "About the program you'll next be featured in..." The second issue is a pretty frequent mistake that many translators make if they're unaware of the difference in replying to a negative question in English and Japanese. In English, the proper way to answer a negative question such as "You don't have any drugs, do you?" is "No, I do not." In Japanese, however, you would answer the same question as "Yes, I do not." So even though Baldy is saying yes/ええ to Mao's question, since she's asking a negative question, in proper English, Baldy must reply with a no as in "No, you'll just be meeting with masters of Japanese Qigong dojos." For additional info on how other languages handle the negative question, read http://theweek.com/articles/451975/problem-positive-answers-negative-questions
Also, Qicong should be spelled as Qigong. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qigong
>>
>>161557598
"Wooow, I can't do that"
"Oh I know"
"Mao-chan, you said you do something similar to that, right?"
"Can't you do this?"
"Huh?"
"That's not on the.."
Sounds interesting. So just go for it.
"Uhhhh"
>>161557598
Hmm, noted. And I post live translations here because for the precise reason of people scrutinizing it into oblivion. So the end result will become a lot better.
>>
"You can't do your sham qigong if you don't have your tricks, right?"
Oh crap...
We still haven't decided whether or not I should display my esper powers on TV...
I dunno what to do! Somebody help me!!
"Hey, what now?"
"This is a problem"
"If we stop her now and spoil the whole situation,"
"It will affect our future jobs..."
>>
Baldy and Atsushi-san are just watching...
"Mao-chan, hurry up"
"What's wrong, Mao-chaan?"
"Phone..."
Hitomi-chan...
I have to get Hitomi-chan's advice
>>
"Are you fidgeting because you want to go to the bathroom now?"
"Or"
"Could"
"It"
"Be"
"That you"
"Actually can't use qigong?"
Kuuuughh!!
If I could ask Hitomi-chan about this,
You'd be nothing but an afterthought!!
>>
"Come on Mao-chan. you gotta do this now"
"If you can't, we'll edit the footage to make it look interesting"
They all think I can't do this.
This sucks
I wanna prove them all wrong!!
If I can't ask her, I'll try remembering
The advice Hitomi-chan gave me!!
Hitomi-chaan
Hitomi-chan
Hitomi-chan
Hitomi-chan
>>
Hitomi-chaaan!!
"You're fine. Calm down, Mao-chan"
"You're right, Hitomi-chan"
>>
"Huh?"
"Wha?"
"It's okay to lie."
"If you keep doing it, it'll become the truth."
"I guess so"
"Uh...?"
"Something's happening here"
"Did she go insane?"
>>
But who should I target
"Hey, whoa there"
"Are you mentally stable?"
"That's your enemy."
"You gotta exterminate him now."
>>
"You have to give them divine punishment"
"For that is justice"
"Wha?"
>>
>>161556184
>>161556216
This is terrible!
>>
Did Mao finally go beyond the path of no return (mentally)?
>>
Double spread
"Whaaaaa!!"
>>
And now...
"First, you greet them."
"If you have a big smile, it'll go well."
"You have the greatest smile ever, Mao-chan."
"Whoaaa..."
"I can feel it..."
"I can feel the rays of enlightenment!!"
"Mao-sama has finally..."
>>
"Finally attained true understanding!!"
"She has overwhelming ambition in her!!"
"Whoaaaa!! We got some unbelievable footage!!"
"This is sure to boost the ratings!!"
"Awawawawawa"
>>
Mao is such a fuck-up. Hitomi added another monster to her harem.
>>
>>161558159
What happened to her and her eyes? Did she go fully insane?
>>
"Hitomi-chan, Hitomi-chan"
"Thanks to you,"
"Today's photo shoot went super well!"
"Oh is that so"
"That's great"
"We..."
"Are gonna be best friends for life!"
"I guess so"
[Right] The front runner of clingy people and the front runner of the business realm. They're now running together!
>>
And done.
I feel like I should clarify one thing. I post my translations here before they get typeset because I want people to check my work in case I fucked up somewhere, so I mean it when I say: "If you see something wrong, let me know." I'll debate you if I think you're wrong, but usually I don't put up much of a fight.
See you all October.
>>
>>161555726
Unless its healing/comfort, DONT GO THERE.
>>
>>161558159
Oh god she's gone yandere
>>
Thanks. I don't mind a Mao chapter but I really needed a follow up of Rock-sion.
