CLAMP x Washizu one-shot translation

[starlady]

Let me say right off the bat that what I know about this manga comes from the Wikipedia entry, and that I know very little about how to actually play mahjong, as opposed to its social, political, and economic contexts, since my friend the mahjong researcher refuses to teach people how to play anymore. So if I get something wrong here, kindly tell me (kindly), since I want to get things as right as possible.

[01]
text box: The guys in white suits who humbly serve Washizu-sama--Because the number of them put into one frame is not restricted, their correct headcount is uncertain.

BUT

From Washizu-sama's "Good morning" until "Goodnight", they certainly are the "Washizu-sama Love Cheerleading Section" who watch over him from behind.

Sign text: Hurray hurray Washizu-sama

Their movements constantly amount to Washizu-sama's limbs.

Label: Meeting

From dropping off and picking up the friends he plays with,
To bribery work to the upper echelons of the police.

Label: Send-off

From mansion management

To service as assistants to clientele

They are the super white suits-chan who handle anything, but

[02]
His treatment of them is way too brusque!

Washizu: There's what sort of problem!

FX: WHACK

Text: They're cut off within the panels.

The narration's name frame treads on their faces.

White suits: Huh?
Wai...

But their place is that sort of thing...
No...! Absolutely awful!

Cheering for our pretty Washizu-sama! That is their everything!

A formidable opponent who calls their true value into question appears!

Label: Subordinate Suzuki

Now is the time for them to cheer to the limit of their strength!

Okamoto: I can't directly become Washizu-sama's help like Suzuki, but

Suzuki: Okamoto-san--

Okamoto: At the least...! Ate the least I can put my whole heart into cheering him on!!

[03]
Washizu: I'll pay!

It's fine if I dish it out, right...!
In other words...

White suits guys FX: Gulp

Okamoto: I CAN'T TAKE ANYMORE!!
That Washizu-sama's blood is being drawn out!
I can't stand watching!
Throw in this towel...!

Label: He's cocked up various things

Washizu FX: Hock

Suzuki: IDIOT

FX: WHAP

Abstaining! Not hoping for Washizu-sama!
Weren't we told to be by Washizu-sama's side until the last!

If we weren't here who would bring back roaming Washizu-sama!?

Who would take him the small bones of grilled fish!

Akagi: Hmmph...He takes them.

Washizu FX: Augh~

[04]
Suzuki: Who would read him picture books before bed!

Who would change his nappies!

Washizu: SHUT UP YOU!!!
Who has nappies!!

FX: AUGH

White shirt 1: Iwao is the King!!

Okamoto: I cocked up...

White shirt 2: Iwao is beautiful!!

White shirt 3: Iwao is the greatest!!!

White shirt 4: L-O-V-E Iwao!

[Within Akagi & company's imagination]
White shirt at bedtime: The genius who alighted in darkness said, "Why is Little Washizu Riding Hood's mouth so big?"

Book title: Pretty Little Washizu Riding Hood-Chan

[Real world]
Akagi & company: Besides that, why are they talking like women?

Washizu: No imagining, you over there!!

[Omake]
Akagi: You're annoying too.
You change your expression behind people's backs too much.

?? (Player): Huh?

                                                                                                   
That took way too f*cking long
Do they normally use women's language? It's very...well, unique.

If Fukumoto is normally this amusing, I can see why Clamp like his manga.
