Kakuriyo no Yadomeshi

Kakuriyo no Yadomeshi Vol 12 cover (story by Yūma Midori, art by Laruha) My dear readers, I owe you a lot of apologies. I’ve been delayed yet again in fan-translating Vol 7 Ch 4, primarily due to some professional deadlines. However, I’ve also promised a friend back in late 2020 that I would sew her a dress, but I haven’t been able to finish that dress. Thus, when I was fan-translating the Kakuriyo chapters, I have been having this guilty feeling of not keeping my promise to my friend :-/ thus… I have been dedicating time to finish that dress asap. Gomen ne… However, it seems it's time to dust off my Kakuriyo novels & finish fan-translating that Vol 7 Ch 4 that has been delayed...because we're going to have Kakuriyo no Yadomeshi Vol 12 coming! It's a collection of short stories of Aoi's life in Kakuriyo with her husband Ōdanna-sama! ^_^ I will buy Vol 12 and see what they have there and report back to you at least the chapter titles… As for Vol 7 Ch 4, please wait ...

Byakuya is one of my favourite characters, and he's prominent in Vol 7 Ch 4 ( Source ) It was still 19 December 2021 when I started writing this post, and it was a year ago on 19 Dec 2020 that I decided to make this blog to celebrate the beautiful writing that is Kakuriyo no Yadomeshi. Unexpectedly, the blog has slowly but surely attracted readers from around the world. Visitors from the United States, the Philippines and Indonesia are the big three visitors, followed by Russia, Malaysia, Brazil, the Netherlands, Italy, Mexico and Australia. I have made sure that my own visits are not counted in the blog, hence Australian visitors should truly reflect the trend that there are many readers in Australia who follow the Kakuriyo story. Nevertheless, we have other readers coming from other countries as well: Singapore, India, Canada, the UK, Vietnam, Germany, Poland, Thailand, Bangladesh, New Zealand, Spain, Italy, etc. I even had visitors from the Dominican Republic, South Africa, Moro...

FINALLY, below is my translation of Volume 10 Chapter 5. It’s a very long chapter (24 pages, A4 size without notes), but I’ve decided to make it into one post to facilitate seamless reading. To give a perspective, at the start of the chapter, Aoi is already in Yōto and already en route to rescue Ōdanna-sama from the prison. But, of course, she would encounter obstacles, and that’s what you’d be reading in the first half of the chapter.  Just keep reading, it will make sense.  I have a busy November ahead of me, so I will only be able to return to Volume 7 Chapter 4 in early December. Fingers crossed I can present to you something before Christmas, or at least before the year ends. To read my translation in other languages, check this tips .

Below is my translation of Volume 9 Epilogue (I used to name it as 'Chapter 8'). Next, I will really and trully translate Vol 10 Ch 5 (where Aoi & the Tenjin-ya crew set a rescue mission for Ōdanna-sama), and then go back to finishing Volumes 7 and 8.  To read my translation in other languages, check this tips .

If you need to quote it, please acknowledge my site for the quote, because translating from Japanese hardcopy texts to English is a really hard work... I will delete this translation when there is an indication that the novel will be translated into English and I will replace it with the summary of the chapter.  Meanwhile, thank you for reading!  Epilogue: Ōdanna-sama’s Favourite Food P260-261 With tears in my eyes, I walked along the a dark tunnel with bad foothold, holding tightly in my hands a written oath that no longer has any meanings. Vaguely recognising a bright place in the distance, I head to a ...
