Hold The Light - Anthey Oom's Realm
Reload Scene 1

translated for Rory ^_^

(Sounds of vendors in the background)
Goku: Uwaaa, what's this? How cool!!!
Hakkai (Laughing): This is the first time you've been to a festival, isn't it, Goku?
Goku: Yeah!
Gojyo: Then, I'll teach you the karmic suffering of the festival (TN: hey, that's what it sounds like to
me :) ) Flirting, if you call it a festival, with this, the key is... (Sound of halisen) Ow!!!
Sanzo:  Well, Your head is a 24 hour, 365 day festival, isn't it.
(Gojyo laughs)
Gojyo: Yeah! The life of a Festival man!
(Hakkai laughs)
Goku: Hey, hey, Hakkai, what's that?
Hakkai: Ah, that's target practice, isn't it? If you say you want to try a pistol, you can shoot it
there. 
Goku: Uuuuu. 
Sanzo: No.
Goku: What's up with that? I hadn't even said anything yet, had I?
Sanzo: No.
Goku: Wha!.... (pause) That's ok.  At best, Sanzo would be useless at it... he's always missing,
anyhow... (TN: something like that)
(Sanzo makes a noise of the line getting to him)
Sanzo: Did you say something?
Goku: Not really...
(sound of Sanzo pissed)
Sanzo: Come on!
Goku: just as I thought!
(Sound of them walking off to the shooting range)
Gojyo: Jeeze, which of them is the kid?
(Not translating the stuff in the background, too hard to hear behind the other voices, essentially
Sanzo's trying the shooting range)
Hakkai:  (laughs) Well, isn't that ok? 
(Sound of Gojyo stretching)
Gojyo: At any rate, no matter what you say, this is a festival...
Hakkai: That's true...oh!
Gojyo: huh?
Hakkai: a goldfish scoop (TN: kingyo sukui)
Gojyo: Ah! how nostalgic!  I used to be good at that.
Hakkai: is that so?  I was also occasionally turned down at the goldfish scoop.
Gojyo: Oh? I said it, didn't I? This humble Gojyo-sama, in both flirting and the goldfish scoop the
same, I didn't even have to use my right hand!   Oh, hey, hey, but when they had monako (I'm guessing
this is what they call those paper tools Hakkai talks about here in a sec) I'd use it.
Hakkai: If that's so, then how? 
(Gojyo makes a sound)
Hakkai: You're good?  When speaking of the goldfish scoop, the tool you use is that round frame with
paper pasted on it, you're restricted to that.
Gojyo: Um...
Hakkai: Keeping the monako strong in the water is a job of thought, isn't it?  Soon the water
deteriorates it, and you aren't able to catch the goldfish.
Gojyo: Hakkai~~~
Hakkai: Durability... That was always the first point.  Scooping in the water with the durability of the
paper... this was what you had to watch out for... The scooping person with the paper frame between
right and left... it beautifully becomes the best net...  And above that silver net, putting tension on
it, the red goldfish... IN that way, scooping out the goldfish is like the puff of a picture.  That's
it!  The goldfish scoop is entirely for the sake of the moment, that...
(Gojyo in the background during this speech, trying to catch Hakkai's attention)
(near the end, Goku yells at them in the background that he wants their help? Support? cheering?
something like that.)
Gojyo: hey, hey, hey, Hakkai, Hakkai, Hakkai.  Look, we're helpers. (TN: I *think* this is what he says)
(Hakkai makes a noise)
Gojyo: Eeeeh! Sanzo's arm was completely lured to the shooting range... (TN: Same as above, I *THink*
this is what he says)
Hakkai: Eh, well, that's true also...
Gojyo:  Iyaaa, Really, festivals are good...
Hakkai: Yeah yeah!! (TN: This sound is the noise of agreement that you usually see in anime of someone
with tears in their eyes overwhelmed by happiness, if you know what I'm talking about, the closed mouth,
tears brimming 'unnn unnn!') That's true, isn't it!  Coming into contact with the Goldfish scoop  is
wonderfully rare...
(Sanzo and goku come into the conversation)
Sanzo: Because a monkey had to shoot, that's why it ended.
(Gojyo chuckling)
Goku: But you were shooting at the end!
Gojyo: Now now... How many times did you guys shoot?
Goku: But, Sanzo was unreasonably bad at it!
Sanzo: asshole, do you want to die right here, right now?
Hakkai: Sanzo...This... Don't joke around, you're not planning on spending all our money on the shooting
range, are you?  If we used the same amount on the goldfish scoop...
Goku: Ah, but this really isn't a normal shooting range!
(Sanzo whips out the gun and begins firing)
Sanzo: Be quiet be quiet be quiet be quiet BE QUIET!!!
Man: Wai... wait, older brother! No real guns, please stop~~~~
