He's for sure got a bright red face right now!Zaki: Um, Hijikata-san, to put it briefly, I don't think we're in a position to criticize. So maybe you should stop?Tae: These look easy to swim in. They might do.Zaki: !Tae: M'am, mind if I take a look at these off the mannequin?Woman: Oh, no problem. Just take 'em right off.Tae: But, um...Woman: Oh, that thing jutting out there?

I'm quite used to looking ad my husband's.Ah, looks like it's stuck on something. I can't quite get it off.He's not like my husband. Whenever he sees my face, his gets small right away.Would you mind calming that down a bit?Tae: Maybe just breaking it off would be...faster.Hiji: P-Please endure it, Yamazaki!Somoene: That didn't work at all, it seems. Could you hand me the hammer right over there?Hiji: Hammer?Tae: Um, but I'm still not sure if I want to buy them yet.Woman: No need to hold back now.

This woman's totally trying to keep them here till they die!Tae: Sorry to keep you waiting.Kyuu: Hmph. Tae-chan,I'm utterly astonished at how strong-willed you are.Who but you would have thought to, in this era where the sword is dying, to build a business targeting women combined with dieting.From a woman's viewpoint,the one to protect the sword in this era may be someone like you.Page 13:Kyuu: But I'm not gonna let you outdo me.Though, are you sure?I thought Shinpachi-kun was the one who was going to inherit this dojo?Gin: .........!!Kyuu: Shinpachi-kunis still running the Yorozuya, right?It's already been 2 years since all that happened,so is what Shinpachi intends to succeed not this dojo... but him? ["him" in italics]Sign: Yorozuya Gin-chanPage 14:Tae: I wouldn't mind if that's the case.Kyuu: Huh?Tae: If that's what Shin-chan really wants to do.But most likely, that boy is......No, never mind.Right now... this is fine.People: Thank you for today!Tae: I'm really into what I'm doing now as well.Kyuu: ...I see. Then maybe we can setup a joint practice with my dojo next time.Tae: That sounds interesting. But watch out, my pupils are quite tough!Kyuu: I'm looking forward to it.Tae: How is everyone doing over there?Kyuu: Same as always.Quite a lot happened to us over these past two years as well.But in the end, even if the outside world changes, we have no talent for anything but swinging swords.No, actually...Page 15:Kyuu: If a time comes when we do fall to ruin, along with our sword,will be the dignity of the family that lived alongside that sword.I think I'm going to have a formal marriage interview.Bin: What do you mean,Kyuubei?Kyuu: In order to protect this sword, to protect the Yagyuu Style,the fastest way would be to have children and pass on the techniques.Bin: ...Kyuubei,you...Kyuu: There's no need to worry about me.I won't bring girls home anymore.Page 16:Kyuu: In that war,I learned to have pridein being born of the Yagyuu clanand of being born a woman.If there's someone that will live with me alongside this sword,then I will gladly die with that person.Bin: .........I see.Kyuu: He wanted to seethat person again.He really enjoyed swinging his sword around on such a big stage one last time,but the time he enjoyed himself the mostwas when he fought him. ["him" in italics]SFX: DOGYAUPage 17:Kyuu: SoI'm glad he didn't come back.If it wasn't handled right,I might've ended up put in a marriage interview with him. ["him" in italics]If something like that had happened,the Yagyuu clan would have fallen to ruin overnight.Tae: I suppose so.But still, that man may have wanted to see it, too.You ina wedding dress, Kyuu-chan.As well as howEdo looks now.Kyuu: ........Yes, maybe.Tae: L-Let's get going then.We have an appointment to make the order for your marriage meeting kimono today.Kyuu: Oh, that's right.Ah, but before that, we should clean up these mannequins.Tae: It's fine to just leave them there.Kyuu: No, you mustn't do that, Tae-chan. With that attitude you'll never be a proper wife.Page 18:SFX: ZAWAKyuu: UGAaaaaaaSFX: DOGAASFX: GOpAAAATae: What's wrong, Kyuu-chan?Kyuu: Nothing...I just... got a strange feeling just then.Ah, well, I suppose the trash is cleared away now.Tae: That's true.What do you say we get going?Page 19:Guys: Uh,she hasn't overcome her hatred of men at all, dammit!!SFX: GARA GARA (CLANK CLANK)Tae: ---So,what was the cause?Kyuu: Food poisoning.He promised to stop scavenging for food and amassing trash,but he went missing one year ago.Most likelySFX: GARA GARAKyuu: he's still collecting trash somewhere.Guys: He's aliiiiive?!!Insert: The mannequin sightseeing diary continues...Bottom: Gintama...Lesson 684/ End
