Can anyone translate this (Japanese, I assume) comic?

There's this little cutesy (well, in most ways) comic I found that I've been wanting to have translated for quite a while. I thought I'd ask around here if there's anyone who could have a look at it and see if they could translate it.

I don't know what they are saying, but the more I look at these, the more I'm convinced Japanese are light-years before us.

I could translate it but it's not worth my time I'm afraid. A panel or two, sure but this is a full blown comic haha.

That is THE coolest thing I've seen since TiVo.

When they add Japanese support, our fetish lives will change for the better.

Yeah, that's a nice app, but it's too bad the support packs aren't free. Oh well.

On topic, any progress on translating the comic?

I don't have an Iphone, so no luck there...

Gimme about a day, I should be able to crank out a translation for you.

Here's a colloquial translation of pages 1 and 2. Note that, because it's Japanese, speech bubbles are ordered right to left.

1: Aah! My balloon!
2: It would be great if I could fly across the sky like that...
3: Woohoo!
SFX: Bonk!
4: I shall grant you this wish!
5: Huh?! Really?!
6: Okay! Leave it to me!
SFX: Shook shook (pumping sound)
SFX: Mmmmmmmf!
7: Mm mrrg grmmm! (Not like this!)
8: Huh? Did you want to fly around like you had wings?
9: It would've been nice if you'd said so...
SFX: Pfooo (air escaping)
10: Eh, this is fine, anyway. This is more like... floating...
11: So, by the way. How exactly do I get back down to the ground?
12: Um... It should work if you just pull out the plug.
13: The plug?
SFX: Fssssssss fsssss
14: Of course, if all the gas came out fast, you'd fall awfully hard...
15: But maybe if we let it a little more slowly...
SFX: Mwahaha...
16: You'll have to get down eventually, right?
17: I just want to be normal as soon as possible...

Page 3!

18: Uggggg... it's not working! RAAAAAGH!
SFX: POP!
19: Aaah! Didn't I warn you?!
20: It'll be okay as long as I let out just a little gas at a time, right?
21: Well, I guess you can do it this way, but... uh...
22: At this rate, you're gonna land in the middle of the ocean. Looks like you're gonna have to make a water landing.
SFX: Da dumm! (Ominous sound)
23: Gah!! When did that happen?!
24: Mwahaha! Now what, hm?
25: Gulp! Well, could you... plug it... one more time?
SFX: Psssssshhhhhh
SFX: Ahaha!
26: Okay! Roger!~ More Gas, coming up!

Thank you a lot for sharing this translation mate.

No problem. I've had 4 years of Japanese classes, so it's nice to put them to use. 4th page is in process now.

Page 4

27: Ah... I'm so tired!
28: And just whose fault do you think that is?
29: Once we get inside, I'll return you to your normal form.
SFX: Mu gu (pushing, squeezing)
30: Wait, uh oh!
31: AAAAAAAAGH! I'm... I'm stuck!
SFX: Gi... (stuck)
32: Yeah... do you think it's from the gas I added a little while ago?
33: Glad I found this handy stick~
34: W... Wait!Don't do that! DON'T!

Are post dates just a foreign concept to you?

Yes, your translation is appreciated -- thank you for making it worth your time!

Zepylin

Thanks a lot for the translation so far. There's a lot less text there than I expected there to be with how jam-packed those speech balloons are, heh.

n34r

As I noted, it's a colloquial translation, so I'm adjusting what it says to make it sound more natural. i.e. "I want to return back to the form i was before" becomes "I want to be back to normal"
