Tokyo Crazy Paradise
Hana to Yume
2000 vol. 15, episode no. 83
Translation by Yuki-chan
Episode title page features Tsukasa, with her back turned but her head faces the viewer. She's wearing camouflage wear with really short shorts. She's taking off the shirt she's wearing and you notice there's a tattoo (branding mark?) on her back. The tattoo/branding mark is a picture of Ryuji with a popped vein and reads "An owner, Shirogami Ryuji".
Text: N? Is there something on me......?
Tsukasa's narration: ---In the body of the guy named 'Souryou Misumi' there's another person named 'Shiva' within---...? ---How...? Why are things so complicated now------...? ...Who exactly... is... 'Shiva'------...?
During the narration, there is a lot of commotion going on in the background.
Kamo-san: "...Either way, let's leave here."
Azuma is carrying a very bloody Shiki over his shoulder as if he's hefting a sack of potatoes. Shiki is still very much alive, and is trying to get out of Azuma's grip.
Shiki: "Uo--! Let go mister!! I have to protect Misumi---!!" He's pounding on Azuma's shoulder.
Azuma: "No! Not with the amount of blood you've lost!! I'll see that you'll get treated."
Tsubaki: {...Azuma... You haven't gotten enough abuse......?}
Taku: "He--y. We're leaving Tsukasa!"
Tsukasa: "! A! Yeah!"
Ryuji: "......"
Tsukasa glances back at Misumi.
Misumi glances at his jacket which is lying on the floor. "---..." A change comes over him. The cold cruel looking eyes become more gentle looking. "---..So it's gone......" [Personality change?]
Tsukasa, with fangs: "...... ...E? That guy Sakaki took the 'kagi'------!?" Behind her, Ryuji, Kamo-san, Asago, Taku and Munakata eye Misumi with caution.
Misumi: "---...So it seems..." He had stripped himself of his blood stained shirt and opted for the jacket (which is left unbuttoned). He's posing, holding the sheathed katana like a cane.
Tsukasa, sweatdropping: "...And... What?" She points at him. "You're saying that we're in your way for escape so you're going to get rowdy?"
Misumi: "...... ...Depends on the situation."
Tsukasa: "You don't have to do that. If you said 'Let me on too' then we'll let you on." {This isn't the time to be fighting.} [She's referring to the elevator.]
Kamo-san and Bun-san freak. {...W...!} A shadow passes over their faces. {Do you think!? That the Kansai gokudo's don can do such a...!}
Misumi smiles. [I mean really smiles, with his eyes closed. There are flowers in the background.] "'Please let me on'."
Text: Super smile.
Bun-san [I think]: {...He said it...!! The Kansai region's gokudo don!! I can't believe that he went so low!! Does he have no pride!? The gokudo don who might actually be bigger than ours...!!}
Kamo-san: {Our Sandaime would never say it!!}
Tsukasa: "..."
Everyone's back in the elevator again, eyeing Misumi suspiciously. Tsukasa the most.
Tsukasa: "...Isn't it because... you're like that that you're betrayed?" {I'm surprised you managed to rule Garyukai up until now.}
Misumi: "......" He chuckles. "The only time I do anything baka is when it involves you." He leans very closely towards Tsukasa's face.
Ryuji's eyes flash.
The sudden clash of metal on wood [I think, but maybe it's metal] startles the crowd. Tsukasa's hair does the sea urchin thing. Munakata doesn't look too distorted.
Misumi: "...You're slow to draw..."
Ryuji, with pronounced popped veins. "...I'll blow a hole in your head before you manage to draw the sword out..."
Misumi: "...Try it......"
Okay, okay, I'll describe the scene... Ryuji had drawn his gun. (Too slowly according to Misumi). Misumi had blocked the barrel of the gun with the sheathed sword. In background, 2 auras seem to emanate from the guys, showing a dragon (Ryuji) versus a scorpion (Misumi).
Kamo-san and Tsukasa are panicking: "HYAAAA!!"
Azuma is looking on with wide eyes and his mouth hanging open. He's still holding Shiki who's now unconscious from having struggled too much. Munakata and Asago are looking on, unimpressed.
Tsukasa at the top of her lungs: "DON'T START A FIGHT IN SUCH A SMALL PLACE LIKE THIS------!!"
Somewhere else on the airport grounds.
Akira jams a new magazine into his gun.
Cop 1: "...They've stopped firing back." From his speech mode, it sounds like Akira is the superior here.
Akira: "...Aa."
Cop 1: "After those 2 escaped into there, there was return fire but from that it seemed that there are more than just the 2 of them in there."
Akira: "...Undoubtedly."
Cop 1: "Could there be more civilians left?"
Akira: "...No... for shiroutos they're too good." {It's different from using a self defense gun.} "They're pros."
Cop 1: "Garyukai?"
Akira is surrounded by a couple of cops (all members of GRAVE) who are trying to decide their next course of action. They're in the shadow of one of the buildings. Akira easily towers over them all by at least one head.
Akira: {Probably.} "This building isn't too far from where those 2 ran from and it looks like they have a group different from the civilian troop they used against Kuryugumi hidden here."
Cop 1: "---..." He eyes the entrance of the building. "I wonder if there's another way into that building." {Aside from the main entrance.}
Akira: "There's probably 1 or 2 emergency exits."
Cop 1: "I'll go take a look!"
Akira: "... ...A...? I understand your feelings but don't run ahead. Wait for more backup."
Cop 1: "But we can't just sit and wait here. If you keep saying that then they'll get away!!" He takes off at a run.
Akira: "A! Hey! Wait a minute!!" He chases after the cop.
Cop 2: "H! Hey! Kise---!!?"
From its high vantage point, Kali watches over the scene.
The scene moves back to Sakaki and Ouguro who are holed up in some building.
Sakaki: "---What are the police up to?"
Ouguro who's by the window: "They split into 2 groups. Maybe they'll be bursting in---..."
Sakaki: "...Humph...! ...Let them come. I'll send anyone who gets in my way down to hell." He grips the huge jewel tighter. "...It's just a little longer. Just a little bit more and I can rule the world...!"
Ouguro eyes Sakaki, his arms crossed. "......" He changes the subject. "...Do you think the sousui's really dead...?" [Note: Ouguro calls Misumi by his title sousui, which means leader/commander. Sakaki on the other hand calls Misumi "Shiva".]
Sakaki: "...What...?"
Ouguro: "If it were just the sousui, Shiki and Wakasa's daughter, it wouldn't be that bad. But there were another 3 people, Shirogami Ryuji among them... ---...Until we see their corpses, we can't be certain, no------...?"
Sakaki, who's sitting down: "...Then I'll send in an assassin once more."
Ouguro: "Just any old assassin won't do it. Even the drugged ones are useless if they use the counter drug." Sakaki seems to realize this too.
Ouguro: "...This is a crucial moment... We should show... our (Garyukai's) real power, no---...?"
Sakaki, debating it in his mind: "......Use them for such a small battle...?" {I'm not for it...}
Ouguro: "To take the world in our hands, you never know..." [Crappy translation, or maybe it's just the Osaka dialect.]
Sakaki: "..."
Ouguro: "...Hey you guys, prepare. ---It's show time---..."
He turns back, glancing at 7 people who are in deep shadow. Yeah, yeah, description for the visually deprived. The 7 people are sitting on the floor. Six guys and one possible female. One guy is clearly bigger than the rest of them and he's missing hair. He looks a lot like Tako (Hizaki Sakae) and he doesn't seem to have shades on like the other guys. Another guy seems to have a machine gun for his right arm. The questionable female has an extra long left arm with 5 "fingers" which look more like paired blades (pincers?) I can't be more specific than that since it's so dark...
Back to Ryuji and co.
The elevator doors open.
Sumon: "! Sandaime."
Mooka: "Thank goodness you're all right."
Kawazoe: "What about Garyukai's don..."
Text below the clan heads: They went down in the elevator first.
The clan heads go into SD form. ".........Sandaime.........?"
One of the clan heads: "...What happened? That swelling on your face..."
Ryuji: "......" He covers his left cheek. "...... ...It's nothing..." He turns and walks off. The swelling looks suspiciously like a shoe imprint.
Kyuragi: {...It's not some strange sickness is it...?}
He watches his kumicho go.
Mooka: "... Hey, Kyuragi. Is that the Garyukai don you said you saw in the upper room?"
Misumi walks by, ignoring everyone. "..." He too has a blotchy cheek.
Text pointing to Misumi's face: A suspicious-looking swelling.
Kyuragi: "...... ......"
Kawazoe: "...Are you sure...?"
Kyuragi: {...No......} "I didn't hear it directly so..." {I'm not certain......}
The focus moves on to Kamo-san and Bun-san.
Bun-san: "...What a dreadful sight... Kamojima-san." [Crappy translation...] "The only one in the whole world... who can kick Tozai's [area in Japan] gokudo don in the face is Tsu-bo. ...It's just not something you see everyday."
A frame shows a recap of the events in the elevator.
Large bold text: Dammit you guys, calm do---wn!!
Tsukasa turned angrily to Ryuji first, kicking him in the face.
Ryuji: "!!"
Text: Shoe imprint.
She then pivoted on her base leg and caught Misumi with the side of her shoe.
Misumi: "!!"
Text: Shoe lace imprint.
Kamo-san is all happy. He poses with a smile. "Now that is Tsukasa-san!! Japan's gokudo celebrity!!" {The star of gokudo women!} [Not a very good translation...] "For Sandaime, there is only you!!"
Bun-san, worriedly: "Kamojima-san! Not in a place like this! What would you do if somebody heard."
Asago is looking at them with distaste.
Bun-san's eyes bulge out, his jaw drops and his hair does a very prickly sea urchin thing. Kamo-san appears calm.
Text: ...Huh...!!
Kamo-san turns away as if disappointed. "...O~~~h. It's only Asago-san." {How boring.} He sighs. "I wanted someone who's more likely to spread the word." {Like the evil quartet---}
Asago: "......" She's bug-eyed.
Bun-san's in a panic. "Ha! Kamojima-san! You!! You did that on purpose!!?"
Asago's getting angrier by the minute. {...No way... ...Is...that true...!!? That Baka-zuki is...!? Her (The kage no seisai's)...!!? W... WH---Y!!? Wh---y is it Baka-zuki---------!!? They have different last names!! Baka-zuki is just a baka!! And she's been in Tokyo all this time. That's not fair!!!} She goes bug-eyed again and her hair stands on end.
Munakata stares at her. "......"
A pissed Asago notices this and looks up.
Munakata takes his finger and flicks Asago on the forehead.
Text: Dekopin. [dekopin is the act of flicking someone on the forehead with your finger.]
Asago: "Ow!! O------w!! What's that for------!!?" She has both hands to her forehead. Behind her are the clan heads in the distance.
The cop walks off, taking out a cigarette. "Look in the mirror. You're intolerably busaiku." [busaiku = (of an object/craft/person) to be physically built/made poorly; in other words, "ugly" or "deformed".]
Asago: "!!"
Munakata's phone rings suddenly. "...It's me. Aa!? Kise and his guys cornered those Garyukai members!? Where!? What!? They holed themselves up!? Those worthless (or "They suck")! I'll get them all within 15 minutes!!" He stomps off, with the carrier (for the counter drug).
Asago is just standing there: "---..."
Somewhere nearby.
Tsukasa: "...The 'kagi'! We have to get the 'kagi' back... And while we're at it, we can crush Garyukai!!"
Ryuji: "---Aa." His coat is totalled, but he's still wearing it.
They both walk confidently, until...
Tsukasa: "---And so... where should we head---...?"
Ryuji, with a popped vein: "WHAT!?"
Behind them are Ryuji's bodyguards, Tsukasa's brothers, Tsubaki and Azuma who's carrying an unconscious Shiki.
Taku: "And it looked like they knew."
Toshi: "But they didn't."
Sho: "...Oh."
Azuma: "..."
Argument ensues.
Ryuji: "I thought you who has a nose to sniff out evil could track them down!!"
Tsukasa: "Me too!! I thought that you and your instincts would lead us to them!!"
Azuma, who's given up his shirt/jacket to Shiki is looking worried. {U---m... ...Can they really crush Garyukai like this...?}
Taku, Toshi and Sho: {I'm worried/I'm not sure---...} Someone takes Tsukasa's arm.
Misumi: "---This way."
Ryuji starts.
There are little sparkles in the background. Misumi has her by the wrist, the other hand on her shoulder.
Text pointing to the sparkles: A graceful escort.
Gun and sword clash again. [Revival of the battle between the dragon and the scorpion.]
Tsukasa with fangs: "Again---!!?"
Her brothers watch on with dots for eyes.
Ryuji, looking pissed: "...You! Let's end it here...!!" [Not a very good translation.]
Misumi, looking calm: "...If you're hate that she's touched by another guy that much then you have to mark her saying that she's yours......" He pulls her forward and reveals the back of Tsukasa's neck which was hidden by the camouflage top. "Like this." [Where did his sword go all of the sudden?]
Tsukasa, suddenly off balance: "Wa."
Ryuji: "!!"
Tsukasa: "E!? What!? What is it!!? What is it!!?"
Text: Kisu maaku b~y Gonzaemon. [kisu = kiss; maaku = mark; i.e. kiss mark, which I think sounds much better than "hickey"...]
Tsukasa turns back to Ryuji: "Ryuji, what is..."
Ryuji looks like the devil gone mad. You can see a popped vein on his forehead and a huge vein showing on his neck. Black flames surround him and he's lit from below. [You have to see this picture. I can't explain it enough...]
Tsukasa freaks: "UWAAAAAAAAAA R... Ryuji...!?" Her mouth is hanging open.
Misumi, still calm: "---...Let me tell you. It's not the man who meets the woman first who gets her. It's the man who lays his hand on her first." He leans forward and kisses the back of Tsukasa's left ear. [Here, Misumi actually uses the word 'woman' so you wonder if Tsubaki finally learns that Tsukasa is female... assuming that he's actually listening to everything...]
Tsukasa's hackles rise and her fangs show again. "!!!!" She turns to Misumi. "GOGOGOGOGOGO Gonzaemon!! You bastard!!"
Large text: Since when did you mark me!!!
Behind Tsukasa, Ryuji aims his gun at Misumi.
Tsukasa freezes and stands at attention.
Ryuji: "...You bastard......" Black flames dance behind him.
Text: With a voice echoing from hell.
Ryuji fires. Misumi dodges the bullet easily.
Tsukasa and probably everyone else in the area rushes to the side to avoid cross fire. Ryuji is madly firing at Misumi, who manages to block the bullets with his drawn katana.
Tsukasa: "Ryu... Ryuji...!! Calm down Ryuji!! That's the Garyukai's don, and yet it might not be the Garyukai's don!! The body [Tsukasa refers to it as a "container"] and its contents ["insides"] may be different!!"
Azuma: "!! What does that mean...!?"
Text pointing to Shiki: Shiki is still passed out from blood loss.
Ryuji runs out of bullets. "!!"
Azuma: "---...E...? Inside 'Souryou Misumi' ---is... Shiva......!?"
Misumi is in a ready stance.
Azuma: "...No way..." {...No... ...But---...} He looks down at the unconscious young man in his arms and Shiki's earlier words repeat in his mind.
"---It's a guy you know well---..."
Tsukasa: "...Mister, do you know who 'Shiva' is?"
Azuma: "---... ...If ...my thinking is correct... 'Shiva' refers to Mikaido Shiva."
Misumi and Ryuji now move into close range fighting... Well only Misumi is attacking with his sword. Ryuji has a useless gun now. Garyukai's don takes a swipe at Ryuji.
Ryuji: "!!" He ducks back to avoid the blow.
Azuma: "The disbanded Hogougumi's kumicho, Mikaido Sou's younger brother, who was supposedly killed in the dispute 14 years ago ---by Wakasa-san---..."
Misumi takes another swipe at Ryuji who's off balance.
Ryuji's eyes flash as he whips his coat off in one fluid motion. As Misumi's sword comes down, it only strikes the coat. Meanwhile, Ryuji had pivoted and is now pointing a short sword [Venkarel has suggested the word 'stiletto' for the short sword if that triggers your imagination better...] at Misumi's throat from below him. The older man looks down in surprise, unable to move. The short sword looks like a retractable blade which seems to come from Ryuji's wrist watch and it resembles Tsukasa's blade [which reminds me, did she claim her blade back or did Sakaki run off with it? BTW was that explanation confusing? I'm sorry...]
Somewhere at the Megafloat Airport.
Blood drips to the ground.
Munakata makes a desperate call into his phone. "...Hey... ...Hey Kise, can you hear me? Where are you!?" Behind Munakata, 2 GRAVE cops are leaning against a wall, covered in blood. "Answer me if you're alive!!" Munakata holds his side which is dripping blood. Blood is also dripping down the side of his face.
Cop 1: "...Munakata-san."
Munakata: "Chi. ...It's no use...!" He turns to the scene before him. {...What the hell...!!? Who the hell are they...!!?}
Cop 1: "...We're in trouble aren't we... Munakata-san..."
Munakata: "Those guys. They move like the drugged troop but neither the counter drug nor the counter agent work...! You can't even compare them to the civilian troops...!! ---They're almost like monsters------...!!"
The 7 ultimate weapons stand before them. The big bald guy has a cop by the head, and is probably crushing the cop's eyes with his fingers. The questionable female appears more feminine now, and has one slumped over cop by the back of his collar in her right hand, and another cop pierced with her pincer like arms. She has really loooooong dark hair. Three of the ultimate weapons are just standing there, waiting in the shadows.
