I'm done translating ep.2 of Hagane no Onna 2. (link HERE)

SPOILERS:
As expected, Hagane-sensei has a new class which means there'll be new cases of bullying, monster parents, etc.  The Class of 4-4 has the Aikawa kids pitted against newcomers from Mizukawa School who just got transferred after their school division was dissolved by the gov't.  And so the new kids are pictured as the underdogs while the Aikawa gang seem to be led by gutsy, pint-sized leaders -- the small but menacing Ryosuke from the boys and Haruka for the girls' side.  

Mizukawa kids weren't as bad as they were first pictured in the 1st ep.  Their leader is Natsuki (played astonishingly well by child actress whose kanji name I can't read) who seem to have major a role in the second season.  She is the friend and staunch defender of Tomoki, a boy with Asperger's syndrome.   

Just like in ep1, this made me cry watching the last parts of the episode.  New characters like the apathetic Mizushima-sensei (how many teachers are like him?), the new resident villain for this season, can make your blood boil.


Hagane's new class of headaches (jk!): Class 4-4


Gutsy newcomer: Natsuki


Natsuki's Friend, Tomoki

So as usual, Hagane-sensei has a lot of work to do... I'm wondering if she ever regretted getting that nickname 'Steel' since she seemed to be getting all the hard cases that they could possibly find for her. 

Since I'm done with this, I'm going to translate Deka Wanko Extra Edition now....
