Battle of Tokyo 🌸 Masterlist

🌸 Introduction

Before we begin, I’d like to set the record straight in saying that I do not speak or read Japanese. I bought these books because I’m very interested in the Battle of Tokyo and want to learn more about this amazing world, its story, and its characters.

I went through each book, copying the Japanese onto my computer before translating the text with DeepL. I can’t promise this will be entirely accurate, but I’m trying my hardest to work it in a way where it’s written properly in English.

This list will be updated as I get more stuff posted c:

hi hi!! i was looking at the bot lineup pics you posted, and noticed sekai also has a book, which i think is similar to the one alan is holding? i’m not sure though, but im believe that there’s two important books in the series

anyways hope you are having a nice day!!!! ❤️❤️

Hello! Thank you for pointing that out, I missed it. And you are right, there are two important books and the one Sekai is holding is similar to the one Alan is

[gif is from Black Magic - sorry, it's one of the lowest goddamn quality gifs I've ever made, it was, like, 20 minutes from cropping it from the MV to finishing it]

This makes Rowdy Shogun having zero artifacts even more intriguing to me 😂 I associate the black diamond with Rowdy Shogun the most, since it's the background of Justice is Blind, but the diamond is with Madjesters.

Thank you! I hope you're having a nice day, too 💜

LIBERATION (voice drama part) translations

GENERATIONS from EXILE TRIBE

CAST: ZERO ≠ Shirahama Alan (CV: Yuki Kaji) PARTE ≠ Sekiguchi Mandy (CV: Kimura Subaru) SherRock ≠ Katayose Ryota (CV: Uchida Yuuma)

0:04

Zero: It’s almost time. Is everyone in place?

Zero: Smash, Chatter, you two will create a diversion from the front door.

Zero: Masato and Rosso will break in from the back.

Zero: And you, Parte?

Parte: Yeah, yeah. On your cue, I’ll crush any enemy backup from behind. I know my stuff, okay?

Parte: Geez, you’re such a stickler for details, right, Sherrock?

Sherrock: But that’s exactly why he’s so charming. Not only is he leading our band of phantom thieves, he’s also the brain of all Mad Jester’s operation.

Sherrock: None of this would be possible without Zero.

Zero: Save the chatter for later. Our target this time is an important one.

Sherrock: The Final Fact.

Sherrock: The last truth* we've been looking for.

Parte: It’s showtime, gentlemen.

4:11

Parte: Who the heck are these guys?! I’ve never seen these kind of skills before!

Sherrock: They’re “Protector” users. Careful, their skill is bad news for our “Copy”.

Zero: I see. So they’re the strongest bodyguards everyone have been talking about.

Sherrock: The Rowdy Shogun.

Sherrock: Heh, how exciting.

Sherrock: It’s not everyday we get to meet worthy rivals like this.

Parte: Oh yeah, now we're talking! Catch us if you can, bouncers.

TL notes:

The setting for the voice drama takes place in Volume 2 of the novel. You can read a summary of the novel here.

In the novel, "last truth" is written in kanji, however is read as "Final Fact". Both refer to the same thing(s).

Usual translation disclaimer apply, with extra grain of salts. Earsubbing technical terms is out of my regular repertoire.

I remember someone saying "mad scientists in fiction aren't scientists because there's never a control group"

I think if you've created an elixir that turns people into goat men you have sort have gone past the need for a control group. The control group is not going to placebo themselves into goat men. You can probably not run the control group, and safely assume that none of them would have turned into goat men. That said, having a control group for that would make the mad scientist seem extra crazy and be really really funny, especially if he was carefully testing them for goat like features from the dyed water they drank instead of the elixir

“Your delinquent child is outside, and I have assured him that he is very, very grounded.”

Between Yeza and the campers still waiting for their parents to arrive from around the coast to collect them, Veth wasn’t sure any of them saw her move between the dining room and the foyer before she’d thrown the front door open.

Outside, Caleb held Luc by the back of the vest, neither of them looking any worse for wear. Behind them, Jester and Fjord looked a bit sheepish, though not nearly as sheepish as her son, who had almost curled into himself beneath the venomous look she’d given him.

“I thought you were dead! You're never leaving this house again! I couldn't get in contact with anyone and I thought you were fucking dead!” she screeched, before any of them could move, but Luc almost kept pace with her, slipping from his godfather’s grasp and, to her surprise, likely to the others’ surprise as well, threw his arms around her.

“I’m sorry, Mom, I should’ve listened to you, I’ll stay grounded for as long as you want—“

Veth spluttered for a moment, though her arms wrapped around him in return. This had not been how he’d returned under Kingsley’s grasp, caught by the ear and cursing up a storm.

It took a long moment to realize that Luc was trembling beneath her grasp. Very faintly, but definitely trembling.

She looked over his shoulder at Caleb, then Fjord and Jester. “There have been… several lessons learned in the past thirty-six hours,” Caleb said, his tone even stonier than his expression.

Fjord nodded slightly in agreement, carrying the weight of agreement. Her grasp on her son tightened, and she kissed his hair. Her sharp tone felt empty and hollow even to her own ears.

“Don’t you ever run away again— Don’t you know what I’d do if you were killed—“

“I know, Mom,” Luc interrupted, and for the first time in weeks— months— a long fucking time— he didn’t sound petulant.

He sounded like her boy.

“I kept him safe,” Caleb said flatly, also without any defensiveness. There was, even for Caleb, a dark flame behind his eyes. It felt like a spark she hadn’t seen in quite a few years.

“He was very particular about it,” Jester agreed, and then, in a poorly-disguised whisper, “Trent.”

Veth’s grip tightened, and she pulled Luc aside, away from the doorway. “Come in, tell me all about it—“ she pulled back and checked him over as Caleb nodded and passed inside. “You’re all in one piece, you’re alright—?”

“Yeah, Mom,” he agreed, with exhaustion. “Uncle Deuce made sure we were all in one piece.”

Jester pouted as she passed. “I also made sure you were okay, alright, but Caduceus is so helpful, you know, and honestly, in the end, it wasn’t even that bad— we saved most of the town, and we had a great party, and—“

She stopped her rambling in the middle of the doorway and clapped both hands to her mouth as Luc ducked under both of them into the house.

“Oh. My. Gods, Veth, you will not believe— Fjord proposed to me—“

With the number of things Jester had just imparted to her, it was honestly a testament to her own intelligence that Veth managed to process them in time to turn to Fjord just as he started up the steps, stopping him in his tracks.

“You what? And I missed it—?!”

"You know, Jester, I think we can let Caleb debrief the Brenatto family alone—"

She had him by the ear before he could move, which was an impressive feat considering he was over half her height, but he was almost as slippery of a bastard as she was.

Within an instant, he'd turned to mist in her grasp and vanished to the other side of the street, Jester complaining behind her all the while. Veth shrieked after him. "You piece of shit!"

In response, he yelled, "That's soon-to-be Admiral Tusktooth-Lavorre to you!"

Me: I am normal about this character. This character doesn't affect me in ways that it shouldn't to degrees that it shouldn't. When I see this character, I act so normal, people don't suspect anything of me because I'm so normal for this character. Yep, I am 100% normal about this character-

Someone: Hey, this character-

So, I got the character book and vol.1 of Battle of Tokyo. I'm working hard to translate the text to English and I'll hopefully be able to start posting them soon c:

I'm excited but also super nervous as I'm relying heavily on DeepL to translate it. Hopefully, I can work it so it makes sense and the translations are accurate. I'm excited to learn more about this world.

I'm wondering if the different color crystals mean anything during the "Ally or kill" section of Justice is Blind. Zero, presumably representing Mad Jesters, has a purple crystal; Libra, presumably representing Jiggy Boys, has a green crystal; and Kagura, presumably representing Astro9, has a purple crystal.

However, while there are two groups Rowdy Shogun seems to be opposing and one group that they seem to be allying with, that's not how the crystal colors shake out. Astro9 and Mad Jesters both have purple crystals, while Jiggy Boys have green, but Astro9 is the group Rowdy Shogun has the least problems with at this moment.

For the Mad Jesters, they stole an object the Rowdy Shogun were hired to protect (though apparently the item was stolen before it got to the auction the Rowdy Shogun was hired for, so they didn't technically lose the object; but that was still an affront to Lupus's pride). Marduk has flat out tried to kill Rosso twice (ex-assassin instincts die hard, apparently) and the Mad Jesters once set off a number of bombs to bury the Rowdy Shogun in rubble.

For Jiggy Boys - well, they stole the Rowdy Shogun's helicopter while trying to frame Astro9 for the theft. Then crashing said helicopter. And then, after all of the trouble to frame Astro9 for the theft, they fucking admit it to the Rowdy Shogun that Jiggy Boys stole the fucking helicopter. My guys. You specifically dragged Rowdy Shogun into the problem so they could beat up Astro9 and then admitted you did so. Also, mocking two ex-assassins for wanting to turn their lives around is kinda not cool, Claude. And may very well further hinder any negotiations to get them to not want to kill you.

Astro9 and Rowdy Shogun have worked together, with less quibbles than any other group. There was the helicopter theft framing, but when that cleared up, it seemed to settle into Astro9/Rowdy Shogun vs. Mad Jesters/Jiggy Boys.

Imo all the wonderlandians are somewhere on the queer, trans, poly, neurodivergent and crazy spectrum.
