Hagakure Sakura Does Not Lament

You Guys On The Other Side of The Screen

Translated by LyraDhani

Edited by LyraDhani

The large electronic bulletin board that was currently widespread in Japan – “Ame no Sagume” or “39 Sagu-chan” – was operated by the government.

There were some privately operated bulletin boards, but they were small in scale. The reason for this was because the isolation of the country had made it impossible to use large foreign servers.

Most of the large servers in Japan were destroyed in the turmoil of 30 years ago.

Therefore, when reconstruction began 30 years ago, the government was the first to create a large-scale server and bulletin board system in order to create a place for citizens to exchange information.

And when the number of users exceeds 10 million a day, the cost and maintenance of such a large-scale bulletin board system were not trivial.

Perhaps, for this reason, government bulletin boards still dominated the market share even after 30 years.

The difference from the old bulletin boards was that users were required to register as members using their national IDs in order to post on the boards.

Even though the BBS had a high degree of freedom, it was still run by the government, so that might be the least that could be done.

Some people said it was about government surveillance or freedom of speech, but if you have a problem with it, just don’t use it.

If you just wanted to browse, you didn’t have to register. By the way, Tsugumi was basically a professional viewer of message boards.

“Hagakure Sakura… Is it?”

Tsugumi muttered to himself as he stared at the computer screen.

Among the many Magical Girl-related threads, he found such letters. He wasn’t doubting Mebuki, but he was astonished to see that it was really there. Where on earth would there be a demand for it?

This thread started a week ago. It was around the time he defeated Manticore. That’s probably why the title was “C-class”.

Tsugumi swallowed and clicked on the title.

Is Hagakure-san finally joining the ranks of the C class?

I’m deeply moved

The frequency of battles is really high, isn’t it?

I feel anxious because I feel like she’s rushing too much.

The Manticore was a formidable opponent…

I haven’t seen Hagakure-san injured in a long time.

When she got slammed into the rock, I cringed like a stone.

Blood was pouring out of her forehead.

No matter how many battles she wins, she’ll be healed, but that was scary.

But I really like Hagakure-san who smiled belligerently right after that.

How’s M?

According to the other discussion group, that was a dare to hit.

This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com

Apparently, she planted a huge amount of fine threads in the Manticore at the time of contact.

If you didn’t think it was moving, it was a trap.

But I’m surprised that’s all it took to hit the Demonic Beast at that speed.

Looking at how she flew after hitting, it feels strange, so I am sure that some precautions were taken.

A scheming Thread user.

Is she a ninja from a hidden village?

16: Anonymous

I guess that theory might be possible, since no personal information about Hagakure-san has come out at all.

There’s no such thing as a hidden village. www.

But there’s almost no sighting information.

She’s a stray Magical Girl, so she’s not even on the government’s introduction.

I saw Hagakure-san a month ago.

She was at the takoyaki restaurant where I work part-time.

This is what I was told.

She just pointed to the menu and said, “I’ll have everything from here to here.”

She brought about 20 boats of food.

No way, that’s a big meal!

Stupid, you can’t eat that much by yourself.

There’s no way, right?

25: Anonymous

Come to think of it, there was a sighting at a donut shop once.

The one that said she bought the whole menu.

26: Anonymous

Ah, that one that was confirmed.

There was also one story that said she brought a lot of meat to the riverside and barbecued it by herself, and bought a box of yatsuhashi (in a big cardboard box).

Maybe they weren’t just stories?

28: Anonymous

I don’t think she’s eating that much, though, because she’s not very fleshy.

Well, maybe it’s just to fuel the economy.

Don’t mention the breasts. It’s pitiful.

No one said it was about breasts.

You know, why does everyone here call Hagakure Sakura with “san”?

Isn’t it too long and shouldn’t it be “Hagakure” or “Sakura”?

32: Anonymous

>>31

Read past threads.

33: Anonymous

>>31.

We use “san” because she’s not the “kyapi-kyapi” type like other Magical Girls, and she’s a hard-core type of person.

Also because some people shouted that calling Sakura is disrespectful to the legend.

That’s about it.

The battle scenes are so unnecessarily cool.

It’s not a flashy one like Rikka’s, it’s more of a showcase of skill.

Well, Rikka is far superior in ability.

This girl couldn’t even reach Sumire-sama’s feet.

Go back to your exclusive thread.

If you’re going to compare her, at least compare her to other C-levels.

Comparing her with Rikka is not an option.

But she’s a C-class in three months, right?

At this rate, maybe even an A-class wouldn’t be a dream, would it?

It’s tough to start from B-class.

The Magical Girls who let their guard down after defeating C-class are the first to die.

I’m not too worried about Hagakure-san because she doesn’t seem to have any frivolity.

Some of these guys are monsters, though, and they’ve been destroying A-levels in two months.

I think Yukinon might be the next legend among legends.

Sure, Yukino Shizuku is amazing, but it’s not the thread for that.

At this point, I’m going to ask despite the risk, Hagakure’s face is quite cute, isn’t it?

More beautiful than cute.

To be honest, I like it like crazy.

I’m a woman, but I wouldn’t mind being hugged by Hagakure-san.

I want to be cursed just once.

Too sad that the video is silent…

If only I had the audio data, I’d make my own.

I like that you’re not being flirty.

Perhaps she is indifferent to her own appearance. And the last time she had a nosebleed, she wiped it vigorously, like she didn’t care.

Sometimes I giggle like a child.

I want to give her sweets.

Speaking of Hagakure-san, I heard a strange story.

Don’t be weird.

>>56.

I didn’t mean it that way.

A friend of mine who was watching the battle through a mirror near the site told me that the barrier wasn’t lifted even after the battle was over. Normally, the barrier would be lifted immediately, right?

By the way, I looked it up, and there are several similar reports on social networking sites and such.

During those ten minutes, what in the world is she doing–?

58: Anonymous

Stop making it occult style.

Seriously, stop.

I think she’s just having an evaluation meeting with her contract God.

I’m sure it’s easier to give combat pointers and such in the field.

That’s normal enough.

Speaking of which, what do you think of Hagakure-san’s outfit?

Isn’t it nice to look like a Magical Girl who has fallen evil?

Your eyes are strange.

At least call it a dark hero look.

The glimpse of her shoulders is glamorous.

68: Anonymous

Simple, but strangely fitting.

69: Anonymous

I think it’s cute how she spins around before she fights.

Other Magical Girls do quite a bit of fanservice, but Hagakure-san doesn’t get any media exposure at all…

Is it the policy of her boss (contract God) or her own wish…

Either way, I wouldn’t hold my breath. We’ll just have to put up with the video.

It’s like the supply is just in time because of the number of battles.

Ah, I want audio data.

Was I exposed?

◆ ◆ ◆ ◆

After seeing that much, Tsugumi closed his laptop with a slam. In many ways, he couldn’t watch anymore.

“…It’s embarrassing.”

He held his face in his hands as he said this. If it wasn’t night, he might have groaned and rolled around on the floor. It was as if a stranger had forced him to play a humiliating game.

He got it now, so “Hagakure Sakura”‘ was a reasonable-looking girl in other people’s eyes. He felt both happy and somewhat empty, a delicate feeling.

The other thing that bothered him was the “Gluttony” thing. He had expected that the predation scene would have been a big problem for his reputation, but it seemed that part of the scene had not been preserved in the video.

That helped him, but he was a little afraid that one day it would be exposed.

–But, he was more favorable than he thought he would be.

Maybe that’s because what he saw was a thread dedicated to “Hagakure Sakura”. But he didn’t think he’d be able to see the general thread on Magical Girls, he was so scared. If they criticized him harshly, even the stoic Tsugumi would be depressed.

As Tsugumi was holding his face in the same position, Bell, who had returned from going out, spoke to him.

“What’s with that strange look? Did you hurt your stomach?”

“Bell-sama. …I just looked into the abyss for a moment.”

“What?”

Bell made a noise saying she didn’t know what it meant. But he honestly didn’t have the energy to explain anymore.

–Let’s not look at the internet for a while. The damage to my psyche would be too much.

But the next day, when Bell looked at his online history, she revealed the contents of the thread to him, laughing.
