Holic Rumor Mill (151)

Sorry for the lateness. I'm doing things on a FCFS basis here, so I'll post the translation for 150 later.



Chapter 151

It wasn't only those inside the studio who became excited with the sudden bombshell.
Watanuki and Doumeki start running towards the center of the uproar.

Kohane exposed the result of the deplorable spirit seeing -- "Even a lie is okay, so I was told by mother to say it." What are her real intentions!?

Letting out a scream, the woman breaks down crying. "Keep it that way!" is scribbled in the assistant director's sign. Furthermore, on the director's instructions, the camera is turned towards the mother. The program made a 180° turn, changing into a trial for the mother. The master spirit seer, the host, the [local] spectators, and even the televised audience harass the mother. But Kohane that the wounds she currently bears alone aren't her mother's fault.

Kohane: Because my mother doesn't touch me.
Master spirit seer: Doesn't touch you, you say...
Then how does she raise you?
Host: Is she one of those that give up caring for their children?

The mother can't help coming from inside the set, giving an excuse that it's for their living.

Kohane: Didn't you tell me, mother?
That you'd make it so that impure things didn't touch me,
that you'd make it so they didn't approach me?
In that case, mother,
is the reason why you won't touch me
because you
consider yourself not to be someone pure?

With all eyes on her, the mother explodes slapping Kohane. Watanuki enters the studio.

The meaning of Kohane's ending "everything" was the condemning of "everything" between her and her mother!! Can you face this tragedy, Watanuki!?

If the schedule is followed, we should get 152 on the 10th.

Bombshell, indeed. And the fact that "bombshell" is pretty much a literal translation (爆弾発言) amuses me to no end.
