Kobato Drop 23E translation

[starlady]

!!! page 01
FX: Grip

Sayaka: I would have cried!
And after that we'd have thought about what to do together!

When you had doubts about marrying me,
We thought about it together, didn't we!?

We did our best, didn't we!?

Together!!

And I was always waiting for you,

For you to speak!
-------------
!!! page 02
Sayaka: For you to tell me to live, with you!

So
…Why did I end up alone?

Why…

Did you leave me alone…
-------------
!!! page 03
K&I: ……

Okiura: …Sayaka…

FX: Slowly

FX: Clutch

Fujimoto: I told you

FX: Glare

Fujimoto: If you made Sayaka-san cry any more, I'd make it so that you couldn't come here openly again.
-------------
!!! page 04
Kobato: Fujimoto-san!!!

Fujimoto: Besides, if I have to tell you not to hang on to Sayaka-san's hands,
I'll send you to the graveyard immediately.

Okiura: Kyokazu-chan…
-------------
!!! page 05
Fujimoto: There's nothing to be done.

I hate you, but

Sayaka-san will say that she wants to be Okiura Sayaka.

Kobato: …Fujimoto-san…
-------------
!!! page 06
-------------
!!! page 07
Sayaka: If you'd been one minute later,
I would've taken a swing at you.

Okiura: I'm glad about that.
It would have seriously hurt.
-------------
!!! page 08
Kobato: Fujimoto-san…
-------------
!!! page 09
Okiura: …Do you really intend to close Yomogi Kindergarten?

Sayaka: I want to contact the parents, for their approval.
There will be some who say that it's too bad, but--

Maybe after this I can open a kindergarten in some other place.
But

To be with you, there's no changing this timing now.

Okiura: …You really are amazing, Sayaka.

Fujimoto: I stopped by Doumoto's father's law firm before I came here,
And asked him a few things.
-------------
!!! page 10
Fujimoto: About the adjustment of the debt, and the closure of the kindergarten.
He'll lend me a hand, and I'll do it.

Sayaka: …

Fujimoto: So start running already.

It's dangerous, so I want you to take Sayaka-san far away from here.

Run,
The two of you.

Okiura: …Even if we run, he'll follow me.

He will.
-------------
!!! page 11
Sayaka: Even if he follows us, we can just run again.

And in that time we can think of a way to fight your father.

We'll definitely win,
If we're together.

Okiura: …You're right.

Kobato: Um--
-------------
!!! page 12
Sayaka: I'm sorry.

You helped with all your might, but I decided to close the kindergarten without consulting you.

Kobato: No,
That's not it.

Um,

Is the thing that hurts you the most, Sayaka-sensei,
The thing with Okiura-san's father?

Sayaka: Huh?

Um–

Kobato: If Okiura-san's father
Didn't follow you, and didn't do anything to the two of you,
Would you be healed, Sayaka-sensei?

Sayaka: Kobato…chan?
-------------
!!! page 13
Kobato: Would you be healed?

Sayaka: If that happened,
I would.

Kobato: If Sayaka-sensei were healed,
You'd be healed too, Fujimoto-san.

Fujimoto: What are you saying?
You–

FX: Sudden

Ioryogi: Kobato can't do a thing like that.

She can't be…!
-------------
!!! page 14-15
FX: Slowly

OSI: ?

Kobato: I've found my wish,
Ushagi-san.

FX: Light
-------------
!!! page 16
FX: Stopping

Ioryogi: ?!

Thank you for translating it!

Thank you 4 sharing your translations. Sad chapter is sad. The whole mood is heavy, much better than the anime's own original ending.

[carlenne.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much~!

I thought she only got a wish after she filled her bottle? I must've fell asleep somewhere in this story.

[umamandy.livejournal.com]

Maybe now she knows what her new wish is, she'll gather an entire bottle's worth of hearts in 12 hours! =P

Thanks for the translation ^^
And the last pages were definitely shocking, I couldn't read the text before, but I thought that was about Kobato leaving this world or something, not actually calling out to God to change her initial wish...still, I know she cares about them a lot (and love Fujimoto) but, seriously, Clamp made her switch her very important desire to getting a bad daddy to stop acting up?

[starlady38.livejournal.com]

hmm, yeah. My own take on it was that this is a "two birds with one stone" situation--Kobato knows she doesn't have much time left, but if she can fix this, then the people she loves best will be taken care of, and that's the best she can hope for at this point? I'm not sure.

So....she's going to wish that Okuira's father will stop following Sayaka and Okuira? What will happen to Kobato after she makes that wish? This chapter just feels so sad T-T. Thank you for translating.
