1. 'Tis Time for "Torture," Princess
Copy !req
2. Princess, time for some torture!
Copy !req
3. Beastmaster
Krall
Copy !req
4. I see.
Copy !req
5. Is this dog today's torture?
Copy !req
6. Krall Regiment Member
Snow
Copy !req
7. Callie and Snowball totally
turned me into a cat person.
Copy !req
8. Zzz
Zzz...
Copy !req
9. You think I'd succumb to a dog?
Copy !req
10. Ah, Princess. Doggies
are super cute, too.
Copy !req
11. Here.
Copy !req
12. Try throwing that ball.
Copy !req
13. What will that accomplish?
Copy !req
14. I see. He's a rather clever dog.
Copy !req
15. There.
Copy !req
16. There, there. Good boy.
Copy !req
17. You're so cute, doggy!
Copy !req
18. Your Highness?
Copy !req
19. At some point, I became totally
captivated by this doggy.
Copy !req
20. Is this an illusion?
Copy !req
21. No, you chose to act like a fool.
Copy !req
22. Damn it. I admit, I let my guard down
for a moment, but that ends now.
Copy !req
23. I am the proud Commander of
the Imperial Third Legion.
Copy !req
24. We sometimes used animals in the army.
Copy !req
25. However, unnecessary feelings
could interfere with military actions.
Copy !req
26. We avoided getting too friendly and kept
distance between us and the animals.
Copy !req
27. That's right. I will
never succumb to cuteness.
Copy !req
28. That's a shame.
Copy !req
29. 'Cause it looks like he wants
you to play with him more.
Copy !req
30. D-Don't bother looking
at me with those eyes.
Copy !req
31. Be strong, Your Highness.
Copy !req
32. Oh? Check this out, Princess.
Copy !req
33. He wants you to rub his belly.
Copy !req
34. Your Highness, get a hold of yourself.
Copy !req
35. Don't worry, Ex.
Copy !req
36. It's not that the animals I
fought alongside weren't cute.
Copy !req
37. I restrained myself from
becoming too attached to them.
Copy !req
38. I see. Is that so?
Copy !req
39. That's right. This torture cannot…
Copy !req
40. Your Highness?
Copy !req
41. I actually wanted to play with them more.
Copy !req
42. I knew it!
Copy !req
43. Belly rubs! Belly rubs! Belly rubs!
Copy !req
44. I'll draw you a map of the
empire's hidden passageways!
Copy !req
45. The princess
drew a map
Copy !req
46. Good. We can use this information.
Copy !req
47. I'll have him use these
to infiltrate the empire.
Copy !req
48. Bring me Dark Ninja Gekkou.
Copy !req
49. Actually, Your Majesty…
Copy !req
50. Undercover Agent
Dark Ninja Gekkou
Copy !req
51. What?
Copy !req
52. You wish to leave the Hellhorde
so you can write picture books?
Copy !req
53. Yes. It's been Gekkou's
dream since childhood.
Copy !req
54. He previously abandoned the notion so he
could enter the family business,
Copy !req
55. but he can't give up on it after all.
Copy !req
56. Actually, I've changed
my mind about quitting!
Copy !req
57. It'd be a nuisance if I quit
after swearing loyalty to you.
Copy !req
58. Besides, it's too late for
me to try to become an author.
Copy !req
59. Perhaps it is too late.
Copy !req
60. Those who start sooner
get more opportunities,
Copy !req
61. and their accumulated
skills grant them an advantage.
Copy !req
62. Of course.
Copy !req
63. However, that is no reason
to abandon your dream.
Copy !req
64. Good luck, Gekkou.
Copy !req
65. Yes, Your Majesty.
Copy !req
66. 'Tis Time for "Torture,"
Princess
Copy !req
67. Panda, panda! Panda, panda!
Copy !req
68. Fluffy, fluffy pandas!
Copy !req
69. You go, girl! You go!
Copy !req
70. Fluffy, fluffy panda! Fluffy, fluffy!
Copy !req
71. What? For me?
Copy !req
72. All right! I love donuts.
Copy !req
73. Thanks for the food.
Copy !req
74. Oh, I'm dreaming.
Copy !req
75. Jimochi, Jimochi, Jimochi.
Copy !req
76. I sometimes realize I'm
dreaming while I'm dreaming.
Copy !req
77. And once I do…
Copy !req
78. What's up with this world?
Copy !req
79. There are a ton of pandas,
Copy !req
80. and Jimochi is some kind of weird doll.
Copy !req
81. 'Tis t-time for t-torture, Princess.
Copy !req
82. Torture is stuck inside a
wall, and Datarma is…
Copy !req
83. What the heck?
Copy !req
84. Today's torture is pudding a la mode.
Copy !req
85. I see. If I'm dreaming, then that means…
Copy !req
86. I can succumb all I want!
Copy !req
87. She's still asleep?
Copy !req
88. After lunch, she declared, “I'm stuffed.
I'm sleepy,” and began to nap.
Copy !req
89. Princess, it's time to—
Copy !req
90. Every morning, His Majesty walks
through the north rose garden.
Copy !req
91. Your Highness?
Copy !req
92. The Commander of the Second Defense Force
has a habit of blinking before a large swing.
Copy !req
93. His Majesty prefers hot baths.
Copy !req
94. My younger sister is studying
abroad in an allied nation.
Copy !req
95. Succumbing is awesome.
Copy !req
96. It's the best.
Copy !req
97. Your Highness! Your Highness!
Copy !req
98. Please wake up! You're saying
disastrous things, Your Highness!
Copy !req
99. I'm too embarrassed to tell Ex, but…
Copy !req
100. When I just became a commander,
Copy !req
101. I made it through that difficult time
because of Ex's encouragement.
Copy !req
102. Thank you.
Copy !req
103. Oh, Your Highness.
Copy !req
104. Your Highness.
Copy !req
105. Torture.
Copy !req
106. Thanks for all the tasty meals.
Copy !req
107. I have so much fun with you.
Copy !req
108. Well, well. That was quite the juicy secret.
Copy !req
109. Honestly, Your Highness.
Copy !req
110. I've heard enough secrets for today.
Copy !req
111. She seems happy. Why
don't we let her sleep?
Copy !req
112. Agreed.
Copy !req
113. Hooray!
Copy !req
114. Jello is so tasty!
Copy !req
115. I'll never stop succumbing!
Copy !req
116. All You Can Succumb
Copy !req
117. Succumb, submit, surrender, bang!
Copy !req
118. Synonyms that start with S!
Copy !req
119. Fluffy, fluffy panda!
Copy !req
120. All You Can Succumb
Copy !req
121. Yeah!
Copy !req
122. The princess
kept sleeping
Copy !req
123. Huh?
Copy !req
124. It's nighttime?
Copy !req
125. Oh, right. I took a nap.
Copy !req
126. Huh? What about today's torture?
Copy !req
127. Was it canceled because I was asleep?
Copy !req
128. In that case, Torture, you've gone soft.
Copy !req
129. Today was a total victory for me.
Copy !req
130. That day, researchers lost control
of the spell they were developing,
Copy !req
131. turning everyone in Hellholm…
Copy !req
132. into little children.
Copy !req
133. Well, this isn't good.
Copy !req
134. 'Tis Time for "Torture," Princess
Copy !req
135. 'Tis time for torture, Princess.
Copy !req
136. The torture's still on?
Copy !req
137. I heard what happened.
Copy !req
138. I'll never succumb now that you're a child.
Copy !req
139. This may be difficult, true.
Copy !req
140. The Hell-Lord said…
Copy !req
141. You needn't strain yourself.
Take the day off.
Copy !req
142. …something similar.
Copy !req
143. However, I would like to
see what I can still do.
Copy !req
144. Okay, good luck. I promise I'll give in.
Copy !req
145. Your Highness?
Copy !req
146. That was close. I nearly got carried away.
Copy !req
147. To where, exactly?
Copy !req
148. Seeing children try their best makes you
want to support them unconditionally.
Copy !req
149. However, I am the Princess and Commander
of the Imperial Third Legion.
Copy !req
150. I will never support children
trying their best!
Copy !req
151. You've reached an odd conclusion in your
confused state, but in any case, good luck.
Copy !req
152. Today's torture is this.
Copy !req
153. Oof.
Copy !req
154. Sugar Candy
Copy !req
155. Sugar candy!
Copy !req
156. They're like little stars. Just
looking at them is exciting.
Copy !req
157. And when you eat them…
Copy !req
158. They're sweet and fill you with joy.
Copy !req
159. What?
Copy !req
160. I'll talk.
Copy !req
161. Your Highness?
Copy !req
162. Tiny Torture is too cute.
Copy !req
163. Your Highness, hang in there.
Copy !req
164. She's gonna carry me away.
Copy !req
165. Carry you where?
Copy !req
166. This isn't the only
torture I've prepared.
Copy !req
167. Oof.
Copy !req
168. Fruit Candy on a String
Copy !req
169. Ta-da! Candy on a string.
Copy !req
170. Select one of these strings and pull.
Copy !req
171. You'll find that there's
candy on the end of the string.
Copy !req
172. The candies come in a variety
of flavors and sizes,
Copy !req
173. so it's exciting to see
which one you'll get.
Copy !req
174. Go ahead, Princess.
Copy !req
175. All right.
Copy !req
176. That's the biggest candy!
Copy !req
177. Incredible, Princess! You're so lucky!
Copy !req
178. You want it?
Copy !req
179. Can I have it?
Copy !req
180. All right! Thank you.
Copy !req
181. So yummy.
Copy !req
182. The empire directly employs a secret
order of knights known as Zero Legion.
Copy !req
183. Your Highness?
Copy !req
184. The empire directly employs a secret
order of knights known as Zero Legion.
Copy !req
185. All right! I got a secret!
Copy !req
186. Good for you. Good for you. Good for you.
Copy !req
187. Why do you keep saying that?
Copy !req
188. Good for you.
Copy !req
189. Zero Legion?
Copy !req
190. Yes, Your Majesty.
Copy !req
191. The Princess mentioned it.
Copy !req
192. Seriously? That's a cool name.
Copy !req
193. Tiny Torture was so cute.
Copy !req
194. I succumbed without realizing it.
Copy !req
195. Security should be weak while
all the demons are children.
Copy !req
196. Wouldn't it be possible to escape?
Copy !req
197. Princess-chan!
Copy !req
198. Hey.
Copy !req
199. I feel so light.
Copy !req
200. You-chan, In-chan?
Copy !req
201. Harm-Marshal
Youki
Copy !req
202. Harm-Marshal
Inki
Copy !req
203. You're both so cute.
Copy !req
204. Did you finish your torture?
Copy !req
205. If you're done, let's play.
Copy !req
206. Let's play.
Copy !req
207. Yeah, let's play.
Copy !req
208. Princess.
Copy !req
209. Let us join in.
Copy !req
210. Combat Soldier Fourth Class
& Pain-Private
Giant
Copy !req
211. Beastmaster
Krall
Copy !req
212. Krall Regiment
Combat Solider
Mad Wolf
Copy !req
213. Let us join.
Copy !req
214. You're smaller than me, Master Mama.
Copy !req
215. I was a child once, too, you know.
Copy !req
216. And Krall-chan, you were
totally different back then.
Copy !req
217. Still cute, though.
Copy !req
218. 'Course I'm cute.
Copy !req
219. Vanilla-chan?
Copy !req
220. Harm-Marshal
Vanilla Peschutz
Copy !req
221. As a member of the noble House of Peschutz,
it's not like I want to play.
Copy !req
222. I want to play with you, Vanilla-chan.
Copy !req
223. Then let's play.
Copy !req
224. C'mon, Princess-chan. Let's play.
Copy !req
225. Let's play.
Copy !req
226. Let's play.
Copy !req
227. Let's play.
Copy !req
228. Okay, okay. Let's play.
Copy !req
229. Hooray.
Copy !req
230. What should we play together?
Copy !req
231. Let's play trains.
Copy !req
232. Tag.
Copy !req
233. Okay. Let's do it all.
Copy !req
234. Doesn't look like we'll be escaping.
Copy !req
235. With that quiet thought, Ex decided
not to think any further on it.
Copy !req
236. 'Tis Time for "Torture," Princess
Copy !req
237. 'Tis time for torture, Princess.
Copy !req
238. You've grown since yesterday.
Copy !req
239. Apparently, the spell gradually fades.
Copy !req
240. I'll be back to normal by tomorrow.
Copy !req
241. I see.
Copy !req
242. Why are you wearing school uniforms, though?
Copy !req
243. Does the spell make your
clothes younger, too?
Copy !req
244. No. I simply didn't want
to waste the opportunity.
Copy !req
245. Waste the opportunity?
Copy !req
246. Today's torture is…
Copy !req
247. What's wrong?
Copy !req
248. Nothing. Today's torture is…
Copy !req
249. Meat and potato stew.
Copy !req
250. I can already smell its delicious aroma.
Copy !req
251. But I am the Princess and Commander of—
Copy !req
252. Wait.
Copy !req
253. Please wait.
Copy !req
254. The truth is, my cooking skills were
reverted along with my appearance.
Copy !req
255. It didn't turn out like I wanted.
Copy !req
256. Torture, your hands.
Copy !req
257. I'm so embarrassed.
Copy !req
258. At the time, I didn't cook
much, so I was unsuccessful.
Copy !req
259. Let's cancel today's torture after all.
Copy !req
260. I doubt this stew tastes any good.
Copy !req
261. Be more confident in yourself, Torture!
Copy !req
262. You may lack skill, but
you did your best, right?
Copy !req
263. Don't worry.
Copy !req
264. I'll be able to taste the effort.
Copy !req
265. I'm sure I'll give in!
Copy !req
266. Princess…
Copy !req
267. How exactly are you approaching
this situation, Your Highness?
Copy !req
268. Let's give it a taste.
Copy !req
269. It's good.
Copy !req
270. It's hot and flavorful,
Copy !req
271. and the slight sweetness spreads
the moment you take a bite.
Copy !req
272. This is worthy of succumbing to.
Copy !req
273. The princess
confessed
Copy !req
274. I am overflowing with power.
Copy !req
275. So this is youth.
Copy !req
276. There isn't anything I
particularly wish to do,
Copy !req
277. but I have so much excess energy.
Copy !req
278. It sure does feel like
that when you're young.
Copy !req
279. 'Tis Time for "Torture," Princess
Copy !req
280. You're back to normal.
Copy !req
281. Yes, thankfully.
Copy !req
282. I'm happy for you.
Copy !req
283. Thank you.
Copy !req
284. Now then…
Copy !req
285. 'Tis time for torture, Princess.
Copy !req
286. Today's torture is pizza.
Copy !req
287. Pizza, you say?
Copy !req
288. This is bad, Ex. Pizza is my favorite food.
Copy !req
289. You have a lot of favorites.
Copy !req
290. Is there any food you don't like?
Copy !req
291. What?
Copy !req
292. Cough syrup, maybe?
Copy !req
293. Over the Counter
Copy !req
294. Cold
Copy !req
295. Syrup A
Copy !req
296. That's a low-risk OTC medication!
Copy !req
297. No, wait. The syrup is pretty tasty, too.
Copy !req
298. May I begin the torture?
Copy !req
299. Oh, right. Pizza, was it?
Copy !req
300. If it's your favorite,
will you confess again?
Copy !req
301. Don't lose heart, Ex.
Copy !req
302. Pizza may be my favorite food, but
there's a broad variety of pizza.
Copy !req
303. Love
Hate
Copy !req
304. It's likely they'll serve a type
of pizza that I don't enjoy.
Copy !req
305. Hate
Copy !req
306. I see.
Copy !req
307. Now what kind of pizza will you
torture me with? Bring it on.
Copy !req
308. It's not here yet.
Copy !req
309. What?
Copy !req
310. We're going to order it now.
Copy !req
311. Seriously?
Copy !req
312. Here's the pizza delivery menu.
Copy !req
313. Tomato Ceremony
Copy !req
314. Mayo Potato
Copy !req
315. Any pizza you like will be delivered here.
Copy !req
316. Any pizza I like? You mean I
can choose whatever I want?
Copy !req
317. Yes.
Copy !req
318. If you tell me a secret, I will
order whatever pizza you like.
Copy !req
319. What's this pizza?
Copy !req
320. There's cheese inside the crust!
Copy !req
321. All Pizzas
Copy !req
322. Are they dumb? They must be dumb!
Copy !req
323. Your Highness, your face has “I love this
kind of nonsense” written all over it.
Copy !req
324. What should I get? I can't decide.
Copy !req
325. Are we assuming you'll divulge a secret?
Copy !req
326. That was close.
Copy !req
327. I nearly let her sweet talk me.
Copy !req
328. All Torture did was hand you the menu.
Copy !req
329. Don't worry, Ex. I'm fine now.
Copy !req
330. I won't choose a pizza to order.
Copy !req
331. Are you sure about that?
Copy !req
332. Choosing one of these pizzas
from all these choices
Copy !req
333. would be like choosing just
one citizen of the empire.
Copy !req
334. As royalty, I could never do that.
Copy !req
335. All the people should be loved equally.
Copy !req
336. I have no idea what you're saying, but as
long as you won't give in, that's fine.
Copy !req
337. If you're having trouble
choosing, how about this?
Copy !req
338. Choose Any Pizza
Copy !req
339. Half and half?
Copy !req
340. They can put the toppings for
two types on one pizza?
Copy !req
341. Such avarice. To be able to choose two…
Copy !req
342. The people wouldn't get lonely
if I chose two of them, right?
Copy !req
343. Your Highness?
Copy !req
344. Additionally, behold.
Copy !req
345. Pizza Pizza 4
Copy !req
346. Pizza pizza four.
Copy !req
347. Four?
Copy !req
348. It's has four varieties of
toppings on a single pizza.
Copy !req
349. Four types on one pizza? That's…
Copy !req
350. That's a whole freaking family.
Copy !req
351. The princess
confessed
Copy !req
352. So good.
Copy !req
353. The cheese is so melty.
Copy !req
354. The location of the hideout
the emperor uses to meditate.
Copy !req
355. The people must be happy, too.
Copy !req
356. This secret should satisfy His Majesty.
Copy !req
357. What?
Copy !req
358. Is that true?
Copy !req
359. You won the newbie award
for your picture book?
Copy !req
360. Former Undercover Agent
Dark Ninja Gekkou
Copy !req
361. Yes.
Copy !req
362. Take a look at this.
Copy !req
363. Shujansha New Picture Book
Author Award Results
Copy !req
364. He won an honorable mention for his
submission “What's a Ninja?”
Copy !req
365. I'd been drawing a bit even before
I quit, and one of those books won.
Copy !req
366. It's a miracle.
Copy !req
367. Geh-heh-heh. There's no
such thing as miracles.
Copy !req
368. Your hard work simply paid off.
Copy !req
369. Thank you.
Copy !req
370. Congratulations! Geh-heh-heh.
Copy !req
371. His fifth book, Gekkou the
Ninja, became a massive hit,
Copy !req
372. and in three years it would become an anime.
Copy !req
373. Good boys and girls, it's
time for Gekkou the Ninja.
Copy !req
374. Gekkou the Ninja
Copy !req
375. Gekkou the Ninja!
Copy !req
376. Gekkou the Ninja is off to work again.
Copy !req
377. He's gonna torture bad
guys into submission.
Copy !req
378. Ninja!
Copy !req
