龍が如く０英語版テキスト 「アラクレクエスト」その８

Kiryu

Actually, Akio, your papa helped me get your Ara-Q3 back.

Low-level Yakuza

!?

Akio

Really!? Thank you, Papa!

Low-level Yakuza

I did... in a way.

Kiryu

Akio, I don't want to see you crying again. Be careful going

　

home with your game.

Akio

Yup! Got it! Thank you, mister!

Low-level Yakuza

Mister... Thanks.

Low-level Yakuza

This is to apologize. Or to thank you for teachin' this fool

　

a lesson, maybe. Whatever. I want ya to have it!

Kiryu

From now on, be a good dad all the time, not just in front

　

of Akio. You don't want to do anything that'll make kids

　

sad, no matter whose kids they are.

Low-level Yakuza

Yep, ya got that right!

Akio

Papa! This is too hard for me by myself. Let's go to Mama's

　

house and play Ara-Q3 together. I need help with the maps!

Low-level Yakuza

Uh... Sure! With my expert advice, we'll be makin' a beeline

　

to that nasty Demon Lord in no time!

Kiryu

(Now that's how a game should be played.)

注目フレーズ

I did... in a way.

　日本語版　 　あ、あぁ・・・・・・

「in a way」で「ある意味」。「手伝ったんや。ある意味では」という感じですかね。日本語の台詞より気が利いている感じがします。

説明とか

アラクレクエストのラスト（長かった・・・）

アキオ少年と父親のために、優しいウソをつく（というか、本当の事を言わない）桐生さん。

とってもいい話ですね。

個人的には、龍が如くシリーズの中で一番いいサブストーリーだと思います。

（他の候補がすぐに思い出せないけど）

Kiryu

You guys are related?

Akio

That's right! Are you friends with Papa, mister?

Kiryu

Uh... Yeah, you might say that, sure.

Low-level Yakuza

Wait, buddy, that little kid you were tellin' me about...

　

That Ara-Q3 there was what Akio bought with his own

　

money? And I tried to...

Kiryu

That seems to be how this is shaking out.

Low-level Yakuza

But why? Akio, why didn't ya say anythin' to your papa?

　

All's ya had to do was ask. I coulda given you the money to

　

buy Ara-Q3 any time.

Akio

B-Because Mama always gets mad at you, Papa. For spending

　

money on golfing, and go-karts, and board games, and...

Low-level Yakuza

...!

Akio

I didn't want Mama to get mad at you even more for spending

　

all your money again, Papa. So, I tried to buy it by myself...

Low-level Yakuza

A-Akio...

Akio

Mister, Papa looks kind of scary, but he's a really, really

　

nice man once you get to know him!

Akio

He took me to a bunch of game stores just the other day.

Akio

Papa's not living with Mama and me now. I think he's

　

lonely. So please stay friends with him, okay?

Low-level Yakuza

......

注目フレーズ

Uh... Yeah, you might say that, sure.

　日本語版　 　いや・・・・・・　まぁ、そんなところだ。

まあ、なんかこう、そうだと力強く言い切ることもできないけど違うとも言いづらい感じ。便利に使えそうですね！

Kiryu

Long story short,

Kiryu

you took Ara-Q3 from a wannabe punk who

　

took it from a high school bully who took it from the last

　

boy in line who bought it in the first place.

Low-level Yakuza

...My head hurts just thinking about it. But, all right,

　

so that's what happened...

Kiryu

And I came to get it back for the little kid. It's going back

　

to the rightful owner.

Low-level Yakuza

...I'm sorry.

Low-level Yakuza

Fella, I'm the fool here. Give it back to that kid for me.

Low-level Yakuza

Damn, I was about to make someone else's kid cry for the

　

sake of my own. What kind of monster have I become?

Low-level Yakuza

I thought I could make my boy happy with somethin' I stole

　

from someone else. I was wrong.

Low-level Yakuza

How'm I supposed to be a good dad to my boy... to Akio

　

like this?

Kiryu

I guess you'd better think about that... Wait, what? Akio?

Akio

Oh, hi, mister!

Kiryu

Perfect timing. Akio, I just got your Ara-Q3 back.

Akio

Oh! Really!? Yippee!

Low-level Yakuza

Huh? Akio? It's you! My Akio!

Akio

Oh! Hi, Papa!

Kiryu

P-Papa!?

注目フレーズ

Long story short,

　日本語版　 　・・・簡潔にまとめると、

「・・・簡潔にまとめると、お前は子供からアラクレを盗ったヤンキーからアラクレを盗ったチンピラからさらにアラクレを盗っていったということだ。」ということだったのです。

説明とか

強面のヤクザからゲームを取り返して、元々は子供のものだと説明したらヤクザが反省して一件落着。

と思いきや、そこに元々の持ち主であったアキオ少年が現れて・・・

龍が如く０英語版テキスト 「アラクレクエスト」その５

Low-level Yakuza

Buahaha! You're finally mine, Ara-Q3. My quest is complete!

Kiryu

Hey, that game you got there...

Low-level Yakuza

What's that, fool? You one of the losers who couldn't

　

score an Ara-Q3? That's some tough luck.

Low-level Yakuza

For you see... this Arakure belongs to us. Buahaha!

　

So if you want to live, get off my street.

Low-level Yakuza

And listen! Don't bother looking for a place that's still

　

selling Ara-Q3. Just find a fool who bought one and take it.

Kiryu

...Villains, every last one. What's this world coming to?

Low-level Yakuza

Bah!? What'd you say, boy!?

Kiryu

That Arakure... I'm taking it back!

Low-level Yakuza

What's that? Take it back? Don't act like it was your game

　

to start with! Buahaha!

Kiryu

Shut up! It's complicated!

Low-level Yakuza

Oh, I see. You're an Ara-Q3 hunter too, then. Playtime is over.

　

I'm not holding back, either. Welcome to your doom!

Stomping…

Low-level Yakuza

No... This cannot be...

Kiryu

I'll be taking the Ara-Q3 with me.

Low-level Yakuza

H-Hold on. Please, I need that... Give it back, c'mon.

Kiryu

Give it back? This was never yours to begin with.

Low-level Yakuza

Fella, I'm beggin' ya, please. My little boy's really been

　

lookin' forward to playing it.

Kiryu

Your son?

Low-level Yakuza

Uh, yeah. My old lady left me and took the boy with her.

　

He's been wantin' Ara-Q3 ever since he read about it.

Low-level Yakuza

We went lookin' everywhere, but there ain't none for sale

　

anywhere. I just wanted my boy to be happy...

　

Fella, I'm beggin' here. Ya gotta let me have it. Please?

Kiryu

I get the picture now. Sorry, but I can't do that.

Kiryu

You probably don't know this, but a little kid saved up his

　

allowance and went through a lot of trouble to buy the last

　

copy of this Arakure Ill.

Low-level Yakuza

Eh!? I didn't stick up no little kid! I took it off some

　

worthless goon.

Kiryu

That's right. You got the game from a punk. But that

　

game belonged to a little kid first.

注目フレーズ

Shut up! It's complicated!

　日本語版　 　うるせぇ！　色々事情があるんだよ！

complicatedは「複雑」ですね。説明がめんどくさくなった時などに是非、使いましょう！
