受験戦争編
第3話 レイと美奈子の女子校バトル
Exam Wars
Chapter 3: Rei and Minako's Girl School Battle

p. 151


Minako:
I'm Minako Aino.
Age 15. Middle Year 3.
Right now I'm in the middle of studying for exams at Mako-chan's house.
 
My birthday is October 22nd. A Libra and a laid-back B blood type.
(Presents, please!)
(Ugh, I don't get it.)
Book:
How to Beat Exam English
Minako:
My favorite colors are yellow and red.
(...I wanna watch TV.)
My hobby is chasing the freshest idols.
 
My favorite foods are curry and ramen.
My least favorite is shiitake.
(...I'm hungry.)
 
My specialty is having fun...
(...I can't take it...)
Ami:
Oh, look how late it is.
Maybe we should stop here for the night.

p. 153


Minako:
Hooray!
No more studying!
Ami:
(You don't need to be happy to the point of tears. Don't you have any motivation, Minako!?)
Makoto:
Guys, I've got apple pie. Want some?
Minako:
(Yeah!)
Ooh, I want some!
 
Hey, can I turn on the TV?
(I love this!)
 
Oh, Usagi!
This manga was great! Let me borrow the next volume!
Book:
Apocalypse Zero #14
Usagi:
(I know, right!?)
Minako:
Ooh, this would be the best if we didn't have to study.
Just us girls and nothing to worry about. It's like an all girls school.
Ami:
(Didn't have to study? Who would that help...!?)
Makoto:
(She's so blunt.)

p. 154


Makoto:
Tomorrow's Sunday.
Why don't you guys spend the night?
Usagi:
(What? No way! I wanna spend the night!)
Makoto:
(Well, what should I make for a late night snack?)
Minako:
Mako-chan's cooking is top-notch.
She's like a big sister and I love her.
 
Ami-chan is... kinda scary. But
Ami:
(Yeah. Let's stay up all night and finish this workbook!)
Minako:
when it comes to studying, she's great to have around.
(What!?)
Usagi:
(Hey, Mina-P! There's this crazy angry guy on the late night show. Let's watch it tonight!)
Minako:
Usagi's the best to talk about games, manga, and TV!
Book:
A Fantasy
Rei:
Well, I
 
have a Zen meditation group early in the morning, so I'll have to pass.
Ami:
What time?
Rei:
4 AM.
Minako:
4 AM!?
Rei:
I always do it.

p. 155


Minako:
(You always get up at 4? Seriously??)
And
 
Rei Hino. Also Age 15. Middle Year 3.
Born April 17th. A stubborn Aries and AB blood type.
Her hobby is probably fortune-telling (since she does it a lot).
 
A bourgeoise who
lives with her grandpa at a huge shrine.
 
She's actually kind of a cheater.
 
Rei-chan, what's your favorite food?
Rei:
Hmm. Maybe fugu.
Minako:
Specialty?
Rei:
Zen meditation.
Minako:
...Hey, Rei-chan.

p. 156


Minako:
Do you fart?
Rei:
...Do you wanna fight?
Minako:
Well, I was just thinking you might not while meditating.
 
The exotic Rei-chan, sporting long, straight hair!
They say she has fans at numerous all boys schools!

(Ami-chan's glasses. →)

Rei:
Because boys are idiots.
Minako:
How can you say that?
 
She lives with only her grandpa and could watch all the TV she wants, but...
Rei:
(I rarely watch TV at home. It's annoying and pointless.)

(I did watch Calpis Children's Theater and Devilman, though.)

p. 157


Ami:
Hey, Rei-chan.
Are you worried about us?

(← Decided to go home to find a suitable place to study.)

Ami:
Your school doesn't have exams,
so you could be using your time more effectively...
Rei:
What's there to worry about?
It's fine. I've got plenty of time.
Minako:
Yeah. She's a cheater
(Plenty of time?)
because
 
she doesn't have exams!
You've got plenty of time, and you're studying for exams!? Damn you!
How can life be so cruel??

p. 158


Makoto:
Well, Rei-chan goes to a
private school that covers elementary, middle, high school, and college. That's just how it is, right?
Child:
(Papa!)
Makoto:
It's the most prestigious private school in the city!
(Less than a minute from Roppongi on foot!)
An escalator style school where you can even goof off in junior college!
Makoto & Usagi:
I'm so jealous!
Usagi:
Oh, there she is. You're late, Rei-chan.
Rei:
Sorry. Clean up took forever.
Policemen:
Ooh, a girl from T-A Girls School.
Azabu Police Station
Policemen:
She's cute!
I love that uniform.
 
(huff)
(huff)

p. 159


Minako:
You bastards just laughed at me!
I'm a middle school girl too, you know!
Makoto:
(Calm down, Mina!)
Minako:
Also,
 
I, Minako Aino, am really bad with
Mama and the police.
 
Also,
 
Rei-chan doesn't have a pain in the ass old bag... sorry, a mom.
And she goes to the great T-A Girls School, which even the cops love.
 
...Not fair.
 
...It's like discrimination.
Ami:
Mina!
Haven't you turned one page yet!? (What's the hold up?)
Minako:
...Maybe I should try to go to an all girls high school...
Book:
High School Exam Guide
For Entrance

High School Exam Guide

p. 160


Rei:
Sorry, but my school
 
doesn't accept applications after high school.
T-A Girls School
Middle Grades
High Grades
Minako:
You won't get away with this!
Makoto:
All she does lately. Somebody do something.
(Shaddup.)
Ami:
She's channeling her exam avoidance toward Rei-chan and her lack of exams.
(This is taking forever.)
Minako:
Damn it!
Usagi:
Oh, is that all?
You wanted to go to high school with Rei-chan!
Minako:
Well even if I turned the world upside down I still couldn't get in!
Makoto:
Well, they don't take applications, so
it's just not possible.
Rei:
You keep saying they don't, but we do still have entrance exams.
Since there are girls each year who fail and don't make it to high school.

p. 161


Rei:
That's why I'm here. (I don't wanna fail.)
Minako:
Hey! You said it was because you had the free time!
Usagi:
(Whoa, now!)
Rei:
An all girls school never changes. It's always tepid
and boring.
It's strict and has rules for everything.
Makoto:
Wow, strict?
Usagi:
Boring?
Minako:
You lie!
 
That's not true!
Makoto:
(What makes you so sure?)
Rei:
Then come
see for yourself.

p. 162


Minako:
And here I am, Rei-chan!
Rei:
(I didn't think you'd actually come.)
T-A Girls School
Middle Grades
High Grades
Minako:
And I have my compact for just such occasions!
 
Moon Power!
Transform into a T-A Girls School student!
 
Oh my.
I wish I was a little prettier.
Compact:
(So self-centered.)

p. 163


Rei:
This is just for lunch break.
Don't cause a scene.
Minako:
An all girls school is a female status symbol.
 
A secret garden.
Yay! I've always dreamed of this! The hallway of a girls school!
Rei:
M-Mina! I just said...!
Nun:
You are being very uncivilized!
(Hold it!)
 
Running through the hallway is blasphemous toward God! Your grade, class, and student number, now!
Rei:
W-We are very sorry, Sister! She has
diarrhea and wanted to go to the bathroom! We will be more careful from now on!
Minako:
(Yes. I can't hold it in.)
Rei:
Dummy! If a nun catches you, you'll go to the repentance room,
get your behind whipped, and have to write an essay!
Minako:
(Oh, a candy world!)
 
Wow, you have a cafeteria!?
Cafeteria

p. 164


Minako:
Eee, it's like a restaurant! It's beautiful!
 
Delicious! Man, Rei-chan. You get to eat these fancy lunches every day?
No fair!
Nun:
You are being very uncivilized! Eat quietly!
Rei & Minako:
We are very sorry, Sister!
Minako:
...Rei-chan
looks really...
 
You look really grossed out eating that.
Rei:
...Mind your own business.

p. 165


Girls:
(Hahaha)
(There it goes!)
(Okay!)
Girl:
Oh, Hino-san! Won't you play with us?
Rei:
I will sit it out today.
(Ohoho)
Minako:
There it is! That girl school speak!
 
Classmate?
Okay! I'll play to work off my lunch, I will!
Why, I'm in the volleyball club, I am!
Girls:
(Oh, who is that? What's she saying?)
(Who knows?)
Minako:
Here goes!
(Now here's something I can relate to.)

(← Changed her clothes.)

Girl:
(Oh no!)

p. 166


Nun:
Very uncivilized!
Rei:
...Alright. I'll go apologize.
Minako:
I guess I just don't fit in here.
(sniffle)
Girls:
(Aww)
(The ball! Come on!)
Minako:
Hmm?
 
What's this well doing back here? It doesn't fit the rest of the school at all.
 
cough cough
Aw, what happened? There's dust everywhere...
 
This is no fun. I better hurry back.

p. 167


Girl:
What? You broke the glass in the faculty room?
Rei:
(Well, yes.)
(Ohoho)
Girl:
The nuns scolded you multiple times at lunch!
That doesn't seem like you, Hino-sama.
Minako:
Rei-chan... She seems
like a total stranger.
Rei:
Mina.
Girls:
(Heehee)
Who's that?
Oh boy.
Rei:
Oh no. You're all dirty.
(Heehee)

p. 168


Minako:
...So you think that's funny.
Rei:
Huh?
Minako:
Well I'm just not like you.
I'm uncivilized! A commoner!
 
I hate you, Rei-chan!
Rei:
(Mina!)
Minako:
Oh.
 
Rei-chan looked
a little sad there.

p. 169


Ghost Sistern:
How uncivilized.
 
I have been released from the old well
after 300 years, and the air in this new world
stinks of uncivilized behavior.
 
Ah, a girl in very uncivilized clothing.
 
To live in this uncivilized world,
I will need an uncivilized body such as that.
Rei:
Mina!?
Girl:
Um!
Miss Rei!

p. 170


Rei:
...What?
Girl:
Here!
 
I made these cookies while practicing cooking. I... I've looked up to you ever since I joined this school.
Rei:
My.
 
How uncivilized.
 
I eat uncivilized little girls.
Give me your lips.
Girl:
Miss Rei!
Minako:
...Maybe I said too much.
Girl:
Aaaaaah!
Minako:
(Hmm?)

p. 171


Girl:
Hino-sama was...! (To a younger student...!)
(I saw the whole thing!)
Rei:
My.
You're very loud, little uncivilized one.
 
I eat uncivilized little kittens.
Now,
give me your lips.
(Mmmm)
Minako:
Rei-chan!!
 
A supernatural presence!
Venus Planet Power
 
Make-Up!!

p. 172


Sailor Venus:
Crescent Boomerang!
Rei:
Augh!
 
That is extremely uncivilized!
What sort of person are you!?
Sailor Venus:
Sometimes I'm just a normal exam student.
Other times I'm an angsty T-A Girls School student! But those are both secret identities!
In actuality!
I'm a friend to every girls school student. The soldier of love and beauty. Sailor Venus
is here!!

p. 173


Sailor Venus:
Demon possessing Rei-chan! Show yourself!
Ghost Sistern:
My, what an uncivilized little monkey.
I am a spirit that has haunted this garden of girls since Edo was in bloom.
Ghost Sistern!
 
I eat
Rei:
uncivilized little fawns.
Mmmmmm
Sailor Venus:
Eeeeeek!

p. 174


Sailor Venus:
Evil Spirit, Begone!
Ofuda:
Evil Spirit Begone
Ghost Sistern:
Aaaaagh!
Sailor Venus:
Ooh, sorry Rei-chan!
Girls:
Aaaaaah!
 
(You're so pretty!)
(Aah!)
(Venus-sama!)
(Aah!)
Let me touch you!
Let me take a picture!

p. 175


Sailor Venus:
Oh man. Maybe I
Girls:
(Aah!)
(Aah!)
Sailor Venus:
totally do belong at an all girls school?
Girls:
This was fun! You have to come back!
Oh, Sister?
(Aah!)
(Aah!)
(Aah!)
Rei:
(...I have a bad feeling about this.)
 
...Mina.
The nuns have their eyes on me
at an important time like this. If I don't make it to high school, it's all your fault.
Minako:
...Sorry.
Usagi:
(Mina-P. You caused a lot of trouble and upset people?)
Makoto:
(The police nearly got involved for illegal trespassing.)

p. 176


Minako:
I've always
wanted to try on a T-A Girls School uniform.
That's all it was, really.
(I won't avoid the problem anymore.)
(I got to wear the shorts, too. They were perfect.)
Rei:
...Mina.
There's something I forgot to tell you.
 
I don't fart, so
don't lump me in with you!

(Someone who does. ↓)

Minako:
Are you abandoning the comrade in arms who saved your life?
(Why? Did I say something wrong??)
Rei:
I am abandoning you.
(You used my ability without permission!)
Minako:
Rei-chan is hardheaded, but I really do love her just as she is.
(You tried to kiss me, you know.)
Rei:
(Geez, I can't stand you.)
(I did not.)

The End
