spoilers chapter 209: Spoilers:
So this chapter seems to focus on Arata and Shinobu. They play three matches and Shinobu loses all, she's invited to stay over, and while she's in her room, in PJs, reflecting on the matches, Arata comes in (dude, what) to talk about it. His grandfather used to say that you should reflect while looking at the cards that were taken from you. Shinobu thinks she loses to Arata because she gets frustrated when she plays with him, and the reason for that frustration is that the cards like Arata more.
All of this is filmed and uploaded to Youtube (live, I'm guessing?). Chihaya, Kana, Sumire and Nikuman are watching. Chihaya realizes that Shinobu arranges her formation with her "friends" ie the cards near to her. She remembers Watarai's words: "I always thought of the cards as my friends, but now I think of them as children. I'm sure Shinobu will feel the same someday. Go on and win against her, and become her true friend, one who will always play at the same period as her." Chihaya also thinks "I'll become the one who understands Shinobu the most."
Shinobu goes back to Arata's carrying heavy luggage, she won't go home until she can win against him.
Re: the magazine, I think we're only getting two chapters next issue, then one chapter a month (not counting breaks). Thanks Alea chan!!!!! Jraws: www.mediafire.com/file/li4i0grlz1zkzel/209.zip/file Thanks Iatheia Craws: tieba.baidu.com/p/5978755578?pn=0&Thanks mashima1Taichi Seraphina, Chihaya hasn't said "yes" to Arata yet. Chihaya still hasn't clearly expressed her love interest.........so it's still out in the open and probably will be till almost the end.  |

Summary chap 210/211 by Alea chan: Taichi goes to Nagasaki, he wants to know why Suou can't come back. He probably knows about Suou's eyesight. There he receives a warm welcome, and meets Yukiko. That phrase about "become someone exceptional" (I don't remember what TDX translated ひとかど as) is actually a reference to her name, though apparently her parents (or someone) mixed up the kanji (廉 instead of 兼). She tells Taichi, "I wonder if you can become someone exceptional by raising a meijin."
Shinobu's mother calls her and yells at her to come back. Arata walks her back home and they talk about Shinobu's vision of the cards as little gods.
Back at school she gets a scolding for her videos, her classmates tease her, and people on the internet call her ugly and weak, so she gets demoralized.
Inokuma's husband is a TV producer, so Chihaya appears on a show, where she declares that she won't lose, that Shinobu keeps losing against Arata but Chihaya has beaten him. Looks like she saw that Shinobu was being attacked in social media and wants to draw some attention away from her. Taichi's mom sees the show and gets irritated that she's such a cheeky brat.
Arata comes to Shinobu's to practice. Shinobu also sees the show and gets all worked up. She'd gotten used to losing against Arata so she ended up thinking it was okay, but now she remembers she's the queen, she can't get used to losing. Momo and Koishikawa star filming the match. Arigatou Alea chan!!!  Arigatou Crimson chan Craws 210: tieba.baidu.com/p/5991049275Craws 211: tieba.baidu.com/p/5991051203 (incomplete for now) Jraws and summary: www.mediafire.com/file/owfrxo0oo3x1w4a/210.zip/fileSuo is at his work, helping students, giving advise. They are all terribly worried for the exams, he is planning to not be there the first weekend of January, they all find it terribly cold-hearted of him when he says that they will be fine without him.
Meets up with Taichi, grumbles about his studies and entrance exams. Taichi parries, asking how well Suo's preparations for the meijin tournament are going (really like how these panels are drawn). Suo is not preparing. Well, if he wins again, he is going to retire anyway, right? Yep. And what if he loses? ...meaningful pause.... "Shouldn't I (Suo) be the one to look after you?" - "Sorry, thank you for doing it all this time" - "Well, at least being treated to brown sugar tea latte is fine, isn't it?" - it's too sweet for Taichi, there is too much sugar in it, he is complaining.
More meaningful pauses. Are you familiar with the word 「ひとかど? It comes from 「ひとかわ優れている」(exceptional), right? Yep, in kanji it's written like 一廉. There is a person I know, Yukiko-chan. Really, how unfortunate. Her parents were planning to name her 廉子, but mistakenly written it as 兼子 (兼 has a meaning of "and"). That's why I always applied myself half-heartedly. I always laughed how I couldn't become an exceptional person. Ah, by the way what was that all about?
-What, a wrong story? (Taichi)
-Well, you were planning to ask me something after the challenger match
-I couldn't win, so I can't say it.
- When you said that to me (flashback to "I will definitely win"), I could definitely imagine it. You winning against Wataya-kun.
- And then?
- The Meijin tournament? If you won that....
- WHAT?
- A meijin raising his own student like that, with that it might be possible to become exeptional.... Just kidding. I didn't think that. You are not my student, after all. And no matter who it is, I will win the Meijin tournament.
Suo leaves. Taichi starts wondering if he can find a person Suo was talking about in Nagasaki in facebook. He finds reference to Suo's cousins, but there are too many people in the photo, he can't make sense of who it is.
When Taichi arrives to Nagasaki, he finds the house to be much finer than he expected. Is it really Suo's family house? It certainly matches the vicinity of the description on the FB page of a cousin, and here is their vegetable store. He approaches to ask if Suo Hisashi lives here. They get worried. Taichi explains that his connection to him is through competitive karuta. The cousin gets exited, because for the first time ever Suo's karuta fan came by. The kids have never seen Suo themselves, but they are also equally as excited as their parents, bringing him food, which Taichi forces himself to eat, even though they are all just sweets. He notices Suo's meijin trophies, 4 of them, with the fifth one stuck on a cabinet because it didn't fit, and it'd be dangerous if it had fallen. He always sends them in, but he never returns home himself.
...it's warm. There are many people. Very tolerant atmosphere.... (Taichi thinks to himself)
By the way, what sort of people are Suo's parents? They started confusing themselves, but ended up drawing a family tree map. His parents weren't near him, but Suo wasn't lonely growing up, they don't think. It was a lively household, and everyone was able to learn whatever it is they wanted.
From Haneda station to Nagasaki, it's only 2 hours on plane. In total from home the trip took just 4 hours. He came here to learn the reason why Suo can't come back, even though he wants to. Where is that reason?
They start talking about Yukiko, that catches Taichi's attention. They end up introducing him to her.
-Who is this?
-Yukiko-chan, this is a fan of Hisashi! He came to see his family house!
-WHAT?
Taichi notices the sunglasses on her, the same ones Suo is wearing, does she always have them on?
-Ah, that, I have a medical condition for the retnas, the field of view is almost gone. Even had to quit working at the candy shop... But do you know Hisashi? Have you met? Is he doing well? Is he well?...
When Taichi returns home, they load him with plenty of vegetables that his mother now has to use in cooking, somewhat unhappily. She wonders who he got them from.
Taichi reminisces about the conversation with Kana-chan about their roles. He sits down to watch the tv.
Thanks Iatheia!!!! |
