Yarisugi Companion to Atashi Monogatari (Complete)

TRANSLATOR NOTE:

1) THERE'S A PLAY ON WORDS REGARDING THE
CHARACTER YARISU IN THIS MANGA. "YARISUGl" IN
JAPANESE MEANS TO SOMETHING EXCESSIVELY. THIS
PHRASE COMES UP REPEATEDLY. AND TO MARE IT FIT
INTO THE CONTEXT OF THE MANGA (AND TO GET IT TO
FLOW INTO THE ENGLISH TRANSLATION SMOOTHLY). I'VE
CHOSEN TO USE THE PHRASE "GO OVERBOARD".
2) THERE'S OFTEN A MISCONCEPTION THAT COMPAN¬
IONS = SEX. BUT THIS IS NOT NECESSARILY THE CASE.
IN THE CASE OF THIS MANGA. THE COMPANIONS ARE
HIRED GIRLS WHO KEEP MEN COMPANY AND ENTERTAIN
THEM AS THEY STAY AT THE HOT SPRINGS RESORT
(BUT AGAIN. NOT NECESSARILY HAVE SEX WITH THEM)
3) ON PGS 22 - 23. YARISU STARTS HER SENTENCES
WITH THE SAME PHONETIC SOUND AS HER NAME (I.E..
SHE SAYS "YA" AND THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE STARTS
WITH THE HIRAGANA "YA"). HOWEVER. IT'S TOO
COMPLEX AND I'M TOO LAZY TO GO WITH THE THEME.
SO YOU'LL HAVE JUST HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT. SORRY ~
