YuriAma 217 - Himezaki-san & White Day

“Himezaki-san, thank you very much for the chocolate on Valentine's Day. Please enjoy yourself today.”

“Thanks, Amane! Still, isn't a pretty fancy-looking dinner pretty stylish as a return gift?”

“I'm glad you are pleased. It was worth the money I earned by secretly working part-time.”

“At our age, wouldn't you normally go with stuffed animals or cookies? You sure look mature─!”

“Himezaki-san.”

“Un? What? You look so serious.”

“Please take this too.”

“T-this palm-sized box is...!”

“It's an amulet for your studies. Do your best in the supplementary exams for the end of the school year test.”

YuriAma 216 - Himezaki-san & Sandwich

“Hey, Amane, I heard that the name sandwich was taken from a person's name. Is that true?”

“That seems to be true, Himezaki-san. There is also a theory that it is not a person's name but a name of a rank though.”

“Aah─, I see─. The name of a rank, huh─? If that's the case then it won't work─.”

“What is?”

“No, I was thinking of making a simple dish and naming it [Yurika-chan], you know.”

“Isn't that fine? Whether that name spreads or not is a different matter though.”

“I'm going to be eaten by a lot of people, you know! Kyaa─! Are you okay with that, Amane?”

“If it’s your cooking, won’t it completely eat everything around instead?”

YuriAma 215 - Himezaki-san & Witch Hunt

“Amane─, what’s a witch hunt?”

“I believe it was an inhumane event that occurred during the Middle Ages, whenever something bad happened, they would falsely accuse innocent people, saying, [the cause is a witch] and [she’s a witch], with the goal of getting their property confiscated. Himezaki-san.”

“Hee─h, so what happened to those innocent people who were falsely accused?”

“They were tortured and forced to confess their crimes, and in the end they were burned at the stake.”

“Kyaa─! They were burned at the stake? How despicable!”

“That is indeed despicable. ...Why does your screaming voice have a slight shrill tone?”

“Because if I was burned at the stake, I'd lose all my clothes I’m wearing!”

“Is that all the flame could do to your body?”

YuriAma 214 - Himezaki-san & Sumo

“Amane─! Let's do some sumo─!”

“Sumo... that’s Japan's specific open-weight martial sport where weight is basically what matters, Himezaki-san. Why again?”

“No, well, I'm strong, aren't I?”

“You are indeed strong, Himezaki-san.”

“So, according to one theory, it said that [sumo is the strongest martial sport], so I thought I'd try my hand at it first.”

“It is generally not a martial sport that girls do, but it doesn't seem to matter to Himezaki-san.”

“Come on, get ready, get ready! Hands on the ground~!”

“Yes, yes. ...I don't want to die, so please go easy on me.”

“Go─!”

“Here I go!”

“It's an afterimage.”

“?!?”

────

(T/N: [格闘技 - martial arts which involve fighting without weapons; combat sport; one-on-one fighting sport.] I translated it as ‘martial sports’ but maybe that’s wrong? Advice? Also, I translated のこったー! as ‘Go─!’ but apparently, sumo has no starting signal, but that one felt like a battle cry or something, so I translated it as ‘go’, any advice?)

YuriAma 213 - Himezaki-san & Yakiniku

“Amane─, isn't that meat almost cooked?”

“Just a little bit more, Himezaki-san. Let's cook the inside thoroughly before eating.”

“Isn't that meat over there starting to get burnt?”

“Oops, this is not good, I'll eat this. Himezaki-san, please have some of this perfectly grilled meat here.”

“Hey, Amane, I think it's definitely more efficient if the two of us grill them together.”

“I can’t possibly let you [cook]. Let's continue as is.”

“But it's more fun to work together.”

“I don't want to lose my life in search of fun.”

YuriAma 212 - Himezaki-san & Graduation Ceremony

“Orororo~n! Amane─! It's the graduation ceremony─!”

“It is indeed the graduation ceremony, Himezaki-san. The seniors who took care of you are also graduating.”

“I owe a lot to Yamada-senpai in club activities─!”

“Himezaki-san, you joined as a helper in the weak club belonging to the senior members, and won the championship with ease, didn’t you?”

“Didn’t I do volunteer work with Kato-senpai─?”

“Now that I think about it, you were invited to the beach cleanup, didn’t you? I heard that not even a single empty can was left on that beach later that day.”

“Suzuki-senpai gave me some sweets─!”

“Himezaki-san ate all the cookies that were made by that senpai’s boyfriend that were so sweet that she almost threw up.”

“Geez─, I’m so emotional saying goodbye to everyone.”

“You were being used by all kinds of people, Himezaki-san.”

YuriAma 211 - Himezaki-san & Kendo

“Amane─, I tried out kendo recently!”

“You've been dabbling in martial arts a lot lately, Himezaki-san.”

“Un! It's fun to move my body after all! But that one is quite tough─!”

“Tough? Is it about suppressing your power so as not to kill your opponent?”

“Wrong─! I can adjust that part properly─!”

“So you are not denying the part that you can kill someone with a bamboo sword? So what's tough about that?”

“I still haven't quite figured out the right amount of force to create a shockwave from the sword without breaking the bamboo sword.”

“At the very least, that’s not a [kendo problem], Himezaki-san.”

YuriAma 210 - Himezaki-san & Icicle

“Amane─, there's a huge icicle over there─.”

“Indeed, Himezaki-san. If I were under that, I'd probably die when the icicles fell on me.”

“It does look painful! There are quite a few spells in games that attack with icicles, so it might be powerful!”

“I remember a long time ago, I used to hold a large icicle in my hand and pretend to have a sword fight with it. It broke right away though.”

“It definitely looks like a saber, it might be cool!”

“Also, I’d sprinkle it with sugar and bite into it.”

“Hee─h! It looks like an ice cream stick and might be delicious!”

“As expected, that last one is just a joke. Please don't believe me. I’m not you.”

YuriAma 209 - Himezaki-san & Snowmelt Water

“Oh─, Amane─, the snow has melted quite a bit─.”

“Yes, it's almost spring after all, Himezaki-san.”

“Ah, that roof over there still has quite a bit of snow on it.”

“Yes, but that too, is currently melting now.”

“The water is falling from the melting part, and it's quite beautiful.”

“Himezaki-san has also started to enjoy elegant pleasures of life, I see.”

“Refining one’s aesthetic sense is part of increasing girl power after all!”

“Was that what you had in mind when you said that?”

“Ah! If I just open my mouth under there, I can drink that beautiful water!”

“Your way of thinking is like a boy's, Himezaki-san. That too, at the elementary school level.”

YuriAma 208 - Himezaki-san & Coral

“Amane─, coral is so beautiful. Is that something like seaweed?"

“No, it's a proper living being... well, seaweed is also a living being. It is classified as an [animal], Himezaki-san.”

“E-eeeh! Even though it looks like a rock or a plant!?”

“Strictly speaking, what Himezaki-san is talking about is something like the coral’s house. Apparently, they can't leave their house freely.”

“He─h! If only the hikikomori in Japan were that beautiful, then the town would be beautiful too!”

“You've made enemies with several people with that statement.”

YuriAma 207 - Himezaki-san & Muscle Pain

“Amane─, somehow, my body has been hurting since this morning.”

“Yesterday, after returning from club activities, you got carried away and trained three times as much as usual, then used your bare hands to fix the neighbor's house, which had tilted due to land subsidence, and then dragged three elephants that had escaped from their cages and returned them to the zoo after all, Himezaki-san. Isn’t that muscle pain?”

“Aah, I see. So this is muscle pain─? U─n, it's pretty painful.”

“Well, you should rest your body and not frolic too much today. If you take proper nutrition, your muscle should grow a little again by the time it heals.”

“Un, I was talking to Amane, and as expected, I got better. I think I can probably lift yesterday's elephant and carry it with me now.”

“Have you once again taken another step away from humanity?”

YuriAma 206 - Himezaki-san & Hinamatsuri

“Amane─, what do you do on Hinamatsuri?”

“Umm, you decorate the Hina dolls and peach blossoms, and also eat Hina arare, I guess?”

“Hmm, well, I guess that's the image.”

“If you know, please don't ask.”

“So, what is this event for?”

“To wish for a girl’s growth, wasn't it?”

“Fumu, that means it’s time for me to grow up!”

“Please don't take growth in the wrong direction. It's probably a physical thing anyway.”

“Un, these have been getting tighter again lately.”

“Fumu, please keep on growing.”

YuriAma 205 - Himezaki-san & Old Maid

“It's Amane's turn, now pick your card.”

“Hmm... is it this one? Ah, it was the old maid.”

“Hahaha! You fool! Now it's my turn to pick.”

“Please wait a moment, Himezaki-san, I will be shuffling my cards.”

“It’s useless even if you do that─!”

“You won’t know until you try... now, go ahead.”

“Alright! This one─!"

“...I lost again. Himezaki-san, how are you so strong at old maid?”

“I think the old maid is a flawed game, you know─?”

“Meaning?”

“You can tell which one is the old maid by looking at the fingerprints on the card.”

“So I'm no match for you.”

YuriAma 204 - Himezaki-san & Food Sample

“Listen to this, Amane! The supermarket I went to yesterday had a lot of things that I could try eating, it was fun!”

“That's good to hear, Himezaki-san. I often hear things like that from big supermarkets.”

“Yeah! That's a really big supermarket, and there were a lot of food sample corners!”

“Heeh, what did you sample, Himezaki-san?”

“Umm, yakiniku, snacks, and whipped cream.”

“Hm hm.”

“Tea, miso soup, and juice.”

“I see, I see.”

“Orange peel, strawberry stem, and apple skin.”

“It looks like they made you dispose of garbage while they’re at it.”

YuriAma 203 - Himezaki-san & Star

“Amane─, the stars are sparkling and beautiful today.”

“Do you know Himezaki-san? The light of the stars you see now may not be the one shining now, but the one from a long time ago.”

“Un? What do you mean?”

“It takes time for the light of the stars to reach Earth, so the stars that are shining now may actually be very far away, and may have been thousands of years old finally reaching us now.”

“? Hee? I don't really get it, but that's a new sensation.”

“Yes, so there is a possibility that that star is the light of a star that no longer exists.”

“! That means that the homework in front of me is actually already!”

“Why do your thoughts immediately go there?”

YuriAma 202 - Himezaki-san & Moon

“Amane─, the moon is perfectly round and beautiful today─.”

“Yes, that's true, tonight is exactly a full moon, Himezaki-san.”

“But why does the moon shine? It's not even burning.”

“It seems to be reflecting the sun’s light, Himezaki-san.”

“Hee─h, so it’s not like the moon itself is shining, huh.”

“Even though it's night, its light reaches the moon... as I thought, the sun is mighty isn’t it, Himezaki-san?”

“So it shines only because the mighty sun (me) is here... it’s exactly like Amane!”

“So it’s a boke to my tsukkomi, huh, Himezaki-san.”

YuriAma 201 - Himezaki-san & The Sun

“Amane─, the sun is out and the weather is nice today─.”

“It is quite warm, Himezaki-san. It's still winter, but the weather is wonderful.”

“U─mu, the sun sure is mighty. It's usually so cold, but thanks to the sun working hard to shine, it's so warm.”

“That's quite a cute expression, Himezaki-san. You are not even a kindergartener, but your expressive power is wonderful.”

“Umu! If I want to use a figurative speech, I’d say it’s ‘a stunningly beautiful girl who turns everyone's heads, blending in with the ordinary and unimaginable’. An existence not unlike myself!”

“That’s quite conceited, Himezaki-san. No one is even listening, but your confidence is wonderful.”

YuriAma 200 - Himezaki-san & 200 Trails

“Amane─, this story is already 200 chapters long─.”

“It is indeed 200 chapters, Himezaki-san, so much has happened already.”

“So, is 200 somehow special? I feel like 100 or 300 is a good place to end.”

“Well, it’s twice of 100 after all, you could say it’s a good place to end.”

“I see─, twice, huh, I wonder if I’ve grown twice as much as I did compared to Chapter 100.”

“I feel like you’ve grown even further away from humans in various ways.”

“Hmm, I don't really understand it myself though─.”

“Isn’t it fine even if you don’t understand?”

“Why? Oh, I wonder if you are going to tighten up in some nice way, Amane-kun!”

“No, I just thought that the readers were probably getting numb to it anyway.”

YuriAma 199 - Himezaki-san & Speed of Light

“Amane─ isn’t light crazy fast?!”

“The speed of light... it seems that it can travel around the earth seven and a half times per second, Himezaki-san.”

“Didn’t they say that if something could travel at the same speed as light, time would stop or something? I don't really get it though.”

“I've also heard that if you could travel twice as fast as light, time would flow backwards. I don't really understand though.”

“What-!? Then, I'll do my best to become faster!”

“Haa, please do your best. So, why again?”

“If I can turn back time, I can do the homework I have due today!”

“Even if you went back, you wouldn't do it anyway, would you? Himezaki-san.”

YuriAma 198 - Himezaki-san & Speed of Sound

“Amane, I hear that Mach 1 is the same speed as sound!”

“To be more precise, [The speed of sound is defined as Mach 1], Himezaki-san.”

“What happens when you exceed that speed of sound?”

“It seems that some vehicles can exceed that, but it can generate shock waves, make a lot of noise, and is extremely taxing on a live person riding it, among other things.”

“I see─! It looks like we’re about to exceed that, but it looks scary so let's not!”

“So we were about to exceed that, huh?”

(T/N: I don’t get it. How can they talk at that speed?)

YuriAma 197 - Himezaki-san & Tile Splitting

“I was just wondering, Himezaki-san, how many tiles do you think you can split?”

“Tile splitting~? You know, Amane, don’t girls normally not do things like that?”

“It's too late for that, so I'll dismiss that question. There are a lot of tiles here that are scheduled to be disposed of, so please give it a try, Himezaki-san.”

“Nn~, well, fine, but aren't you stacking too many? There's about 30 of them, you know?”

“I suppose it’s about that much, then, please go all out.”

“Then, here I go─! Acho─!”

I regretted it. I regretted that a casual thought had triggered an earthquake disaster in this town────

YuriAma 196 - Himezaki-san & Boxing

“Amane─! Boxing is so much fun!”

“[So much fun], you say, did you start boxing? Himezaki-san.”

“Un! Only a bit between my family though! I guess being physically active suits me after all!”

“That's good to hear. But I feel sorry for your opponent, Himezaki-san. Actually, I feel like it would be better if they were sent to the hospital.”

“It's okay─! Because I'm in charge of the ring ropes!”

“...Ha?”

“Well, there was no rope, you see! So if my family fighting inside the ring was about to go out of the ring, I would instantly go around and stop them in place of the ropes!”

“Aah, you’re soft so I suppose you are good for absorbing shock.”

────

(T/N: it’s not actually a ring, it’s probably just a mark on the ground, but I translated it to ‘ring’ because it sounds fitting. What do you think?)

YuriAma 195 - Himezaki-san & Icy Road

“Wa-!? Dangerous-! Amane─! It’s slippery around here─!”

“Because the road is icy, Himezaki-san. Let's walk carefully.”

“Uu─, this is scary─! Why does it become slippery when it's frozen?”

“When you walk on ice, the friction causes a bit of ice to melt and turn into water, that’s why you slip. In snowy countries where temperatures are around -40℃, even the friction of a car doesn't melt the ice and it doesn't slip.”

“Hee─h, so that’s how it is! That's surprising! Then let's freeze it even more!”

“Come to think of it, when we were stranded, you learnt such a special skill, didn’t you, Himezaki-san? But please don’t do it.”

YuriAma 194 - Himezaki-san & Deep-Sea Fisheries

“Amane─, deep-sea fishing takes so many days, so why do they do it?”

“I suppose it’s to catch plenty of seasonal fish of winter, Himezaki-san.”

“But isn't it inefficient? They send out a big ship for a month, right?”

“It’s because the economic benefits are worth the effort. One big fish can sell for hundreds of thousands or even millions of yen. That is truly making a fortune in a single stroke.”

“Like I said, what I'm talking about is efficiency. Can’t you just bring a net and go catch them on a day trip?”

“Himezaki-san, you should become a fisherman.”

“Yes, it looks like there’s fog, Himezaki-san.”

“The fog looks pretty thick, so let's be careful.”

“Hmm? Really? It's a little hazy, but I can see clearly, you know?”

“Himezaki-san, your eyesight is also amazing, your eyes still work in this situation I see.”

“Ooh! ...Nn? No, I can’t see after all! I can’t see!”

“Eh? What's wrong? Himezaki-san.”

“I can’t see, so we have to walk carefully! Amane! Let's hold hands!”

YuriAma 192 - Himezaki-san & Hailstorm

“Amane, it's a hailstorm.”

“It is indeed a hailstorm, Himezaki-san.”

“By the way, what’s the difference between hailstorm and hail?”

“Isn’t it the size of the grains? Hail hurts when it hits you, but hailstorm hurts even more because it's bigger.”

“Isn't it strange how the names change depending on size? If a big cat and a small cat are the same age, a cat is a cat, right?”

“I suppose it doesn't really matter what it is.”

“I think they are named like that because when hail hits you, you want to sigh, [Ara─], and when hailstorm hits you, you want to scream, [Hyo─!].”

“Please don't use your spontaneous ideas as the origin of the name.”

────

“Didn't you say something like, [A good woman who is dripping with water] while being hit by the rain before?”

“There’s no way I can say such a gag while being bathed in something so damn cold.”

“Can’t you say such a cold gag while being bathed in something so damn cold?”

“Did you say something?”

“No, nothing.”

“Un, it sure hurts! But it sounds like a special move and it's cool, isn't it? Hail!”

“Are you going to learn a special move of raining hail this time? I think it's about time for you to stop that kind of thing.”

“No, no! The me who can best that special move is cool! So that’s what I’ll do.”

“Best?”
