Same comic with alternate text (again)

As flat as Kyonko is, I'm surprised she can keep that dress up. Must be tape.

I wonder about the dating of this comic I know it started in or around C74.

I would love to see this translated :D

The line at the top (衣装剥がれ老夫煮らる, "The clothes are peeled off and the old man is boiled[?]") seems to be related to the proverb 狡兎死して走狗煮らる (my dictionary has "When the rabbit dies, the hunting dog is cooked." meaning: When something that was really useful has outlived its usefulness, get rid of it.)

Uhh... maybe that would be good enough: "When the clothes are peeled off, you can boil the old man." I don't have to figure out the connection with the proverb.

(I think they're related because they both say 煮らる, which is an unusual word and not modern Japanese.)

Well, having decided that, the rest isn't too hard...

This series and its metaphors.....

May I dare to bump a translation request? Pretty please.

Re-bumping this page. Seems like our lovely translators missed a spot. :3

Is this the last of the series? Weren't we just getting to the good part?

I miss the days of the rampaging Kyonko series (multiple) and story discussions. Both here and on Animesuki.

so close, just this one (and the alternative text) and whole pool is fully translated
