Hi, ok. Here’s all this. We didn’t know that Jump was coming out early again this week so things have been really hectic. I’ve gotten about 15 combined hours of sleep this week due to working on this and other translation fansubby thingies. so far so I’m kinda gonna sleep now. Go read these chapters they’re both full of emotion. Tragedy and cruel irony and all that good stuff.

Edit: Gintama was missing a page. I dunno why, I guess it didn’t save for some reason. It’s fixed now and the links are updated.

The past slowly comes to light.

I really love this flashback arc. It’s so great how they’re sort of revealing the past and drawing parallels to the present while at the same time, while the whole time we have this “Look how it ended up” scenario we’re aware of. I’ll be interested to see what Shimabukruo-sensei goes to next.

Zuh. Ok I’m really tired now… I’ve had like 4-5 hours of sleep in the last 3 days a day trying to finish everything I need to do…
Gintama’s not done yet, I’ll be trying to get that done soon. This week’s and last week’s Jumps coming out on a Tuesday threw my whole schedule off pretty bad. Next week it goes back to normal so I’ll try to get both Gintamas out by then. We’ve had some problems with that but I think they’re all settled now maybe.

Okay, this is all done. As I mentioned, we got raws really late. This has resulted in one of the most stressful weeks I’ve had in quite a long time, further aggravated by people not communicating with me. Basically I’ve had to do all the tons of work I usually do at this part of the week in addition to the Toriko manga, trying to find backups to get raws, trying to figure out when people are finishing things so I can do certain things in advance so it’s not such a clusterfuck… So now everythings behind despite me staying up to about 4AM after working all day everyday the last 3 days… So I’m really tired, here ya go. I’m still doing Gintama, we’re gonna try to get that done soon. The next issue of Jump comes out early, apparently, so I really need to hurry and try desperately to get everything done. Thanks for your patience, everybody. To the people that weren’t patient, fuck you. Everyone please go relax and enjoy your lives. I’ve gotta go get back to a ton of other shit I need to do today.

Thanks to Tonkatsu for filling in with cleaning Toriko. I somehow managed to get alllll this shit done. All kinds of awesome exciting shit in Toriko where stuff keeps going crazy. Gintama’s chapter is an epistemic deconstruction of the summer break and its meaning as a concept in relation to work. It’s a fascinating discussion that I’m sure will leave you all a little wiser. We could all learn a little from Hasegawa though, couldn’t we? Like how to frighten small children and how to survive living in a cardboard box in a park…

Update: By the way guys, this is a Jump Combined-Week issue (Issue 37/38) so there’s no issue next week for the Obon Festival. So we’ll finish up the Gintama chapter that just came out, then the raws for next chapters will come out around August 21st.
