Summary of Caste Heaven Chapter 35

Here is the summary of Chapter 35!

Many thanks to PenPen from Weibo who took her time to write the detailed summary.

Here is the English translation:

Everybody wanted Karino to step down as the King.

Karino realized that the situation was going to be out of control and wanted his followers to teach those people a lesson.

However, nobody was on his side now.

Yumi said Karino actually doesn’t give a damn about Class 2-1 and he is now disqualified as King.

 

Since Karino’s end had come, those who see Karino as an eye sore started to beat him up.

Azusa tried to distract them as a Target but in vain.

Fear of being caught, the gang retreated when the teacher was approaching them.

Eno’s follower asked him what about Karino.

Eno gloated over Karino and said it doesn’t matter because he is only an Ex-King.

 

Karino lied unconscious on the floor.

Azusa grabbed Karino’s collar and yelled at him:

“You bastard, get up!

I am the one who is going to drag you down, don’t let those mooks get you!

Get up now!”

 

The teacher was coming and Tatsumi asked them to leave, he’ll handle it.

Atsumu and the others pulled Azusa away.

Azusa was struggling and wanted Karino to listen to him.

 

Azusa asked Kagura why didn’t he try to stop Eno, aren’t they friends?

Kagura said Eno has to overcome his hardship by himself.

If he involves himself to help Eno, Eno will never be independent and grow up.

Atsumu asked Kagura what did Eno go through before, maybe they can help out.

 

-Kagura and Eno’s childhood –

 

When they were kids, Eno saw that Kagura was observing a cicada casting off its skin on a tree.

Eno asked Kagura why didn’t he help the cicada instead of being an onlooker.

Kagura answered: When the cicada is casting of its skin, it could be hurt when an outsider tries to help it.

Eno found that Kagura was very knowledgeable.

 

The next day, the cicada came out of its shell and flew away.

Looking at how much effort the cicada made in order to live, tears rolled down Eno’s cheeks.

Kagura gave the cicada’s shell to Eno.

Eno took it on his palm happily and said he would cherish it.

 

Eno was a sentimental child.

Eno was always touched by Kagura when Kagura taught him something new. This also made Kagura satisfied.

Eno was very clingy to Kagura and wanted only to play with Kagura and went to the same secondary school.

However, Kagura hoped that they can grow apart, like the cicada, they can live their own lives without being influenced.

 

Kagura went to a public secondary school and Eno enrolled in a private school.

Although they went to different schools, but they promised to be friends forever, this is not separation.

Since Eno was a very sentimental child, he could be influenced by others easily.

Kagura thought that would be the right decision for him.

 

However, the reality looked different.

Eno started to be very busy at school. They spent lesser time together.

Eno told Kagura that the seniors at school treated him well. They pierced his ears and played games with him.

 

One day late at night, Eno came to see Kagura and said that he was just passing by.

Kagura saw that Eno’s shirt was misbuttoned and asked him what happened.

It was hard to imagine that there were delinquents in a renowned school and these bad teens were now friends of Eno.

Eno was too scared to reject them.

Kagura suggested him to report to the police or tell his parents and he was willing to help Eno.

 

Eno wished to be consoled by Kagura.

Not only verbally, but also with his body, to feel his presence.

Kagura rejected Eno and told Eno that he has to overcome the problem by himself.

It won’t help if Eno just kept relying on him.

Eno said Kagura has changed. He was once kinder and gentler.

Kagura said: You are the one who has changed, ENO.

Eno: It’s me? I see…

 

Kagura said he didn’t have Eno’s news since then until he entered high school.

He didn’t know how did Eno enter this school.

But since then Eno has been like this.

Kagura said Eno won’t listen to him anymore.

 

Azusa punched Kagura on his face and said Kagura was the source of the trouble.

Kagura left Eno in the lurch without offering any help.

Kagura was struggling and said Eno was too dependent on him. He just wanted Eno to be a bit more independent.

Azusa accused Kagura that he was just scared. If he really cares about Eno, he would still help Eno even though he knew that he would also get hurt.

Kagura replied: So what!

Whether Eno’s feeling on him or grabbing Eno’s hands which asking for help and fall down together, he was too afraid to admit that he was just an ordinary kid who was incapable to help Eno.

 

Azusa gave Kagura the key of Eno’s paradise room and asked him to have a look on Eno’s insect.

 

Karino’s mother came to school and talked to the school director.

She said Karino is going to be a politician in the future and she won’t forgive those who hurt him.

She won’t let Karino come to school until the matter is resolved.

Azusa was waiting outside and he told Karino’s mother that he is Karino’s friend.

He begged to see Karino because he needed to talk to him urgently.

 

Karino’s mother said she remembered she saw Azusa before at the sport festival.

But bad guys like Azusa should stay away from Kouhei.

And she accused Azusa was the one who made Karino get hurt.

She wondered what Azusa wants to tell Karino face to face.

It seemed like it was something improper.

She won’t let Azusa in even if Azusa comes to see Karino.

 

Azusa was so angry and nearly burst out.

He couldn’t help but went back to the classroom.

He saw some guys with heads covered with paper bags (the committee members of the caste game) announcing that the majority in class 2-1 agreed to disqualify Karino as the King.

The game will resume on next Monday.


------------

This chapter is mainly about Eno's past. 

Eno was really cute and adorable when he was a child.


I feel so touched when Azusa scolded Kagura:' if you really care of somebody, you will still help him even though you know you will get hurt.'

This is exactly what Azusa and Karino did for each other.

Karino was beaten up because he wanted to protect Azusa.

Azusa tried to shift the anger of those who beat Karino because he wanted to save Karino.

I hope Azusa will be able to meet Karino soon, and tell him what he feels...


It was funny when Azusa saw Karino's mother came out from the director's room.

He nearly blurted the word 'old hag', but then quickly changed it to 'Karino's mother'.

When Karino's mother refused to let Azusa meet Karino, he couldn't hold it anymore and shouted at Karino's mother addressing her as 'old hag'. XDDD



       "“You bastard, get up! I am the one who is going to drag you down, don’t let those 

          mooks get you! Get up now!”



     “Let me go! Can you hear me, Karino?” (taken from PenPen, Weibo)

Caste Heaven Vol. 7 announcement

Official announcement from Be Boy Magazine website: Caste Heaven Volume 7 will be released on the 10th of May.

Since I only purchase the monthly Be Boy Magazine, I have no idea which chapters are included in Vol. 7.

But the new released cover from Ogawa sensei is SUPER adorable!!


From the reflection on the window, Karino is reaching out for Azusa but Azusa doesn't realize it.

And the translation of the cover hit me hard, what a love confession from Karino!!

' EVEN IF I HAVE TO GIVE UP EVERYTHING; I STILL WANT TO PROTECT THAT GUY' 

アイツ(That Guy)is marked in red. Karino's most precious thing - Azusa!

悲傷四月

 

安息,黃國俊。


四月一日,18年前的這天,哥哥張國榮永遠地離開了我們。
昨天看了一場感觸很深的《想你張國榮》音樂特輯。
那些電影片段和歌曲,讓我想起自己年少時期的那些青澀時光。
特輯尾聲許冠傑先生現場獻唱了哥哥的一些經典名曲。
看着70多歲的許冠傑,不禁在想如果哥哥還活著,他現在是什麼模樣呢?

今天看到黃國俊病逝世的消息,很震驚。
他發love time這張專輯的時候我就開始注意到他。
他的聲線很特別,其實不是我喜歡的那種,可是我卻深深被他的歌聲吸引。
我最喜歡他和江得勝合唱的《鱒魚》。

我已經很多年沒聽他的歌了。
去年和友人提起他(友人認識的音樂朋友和他交情甚篤),
突然想知道消失在幕前多年的他不知道怎樣了。
後來在微博看到他仍然有在創作,雖然(還)沒有發行。
他這些年寫的歌我也有在仔細聽。

2018年他經歷人生的低潮,後來寫了《加油》這首歌。
他曾經說過2021年會有驚喜,我才他應該是打算出專輯吧。
現在,或許永遠都沒有機會再聽到這張專輯了。

安息,黃國俊。
謝謝你曾經唱過那些讓我很喜歡的歌。
永遠會記得那些歌曲、你的聲音。

Caste Heaven Chapter 34 (English)

 























PS: The facial expression of Karino (pic below) is PRICELESS!! 





Spelling Error: Defensive



Karino is so proud of his Azusa when he said: His toughness is unbelievable.
I guess this is also what makes him fall in love with Azusa...




PS: Have you discovered that guy above (next to the door)?!
He is Taisho!!
I'm sure he'll do something.






















Epic! I find this chapter very interesting.
Eno showed his real face and burst into anger;
Karino defended Azusa for the first time in front of the public and his care for Azusa is getting more obvious;
Azusa felt the warmth of some true friends and he knows his Karino is coming back to him finally.

The next chapter will be released on the 7th of May.
