The translation presented here is for enjoyment only. I enjoyed the content so much that I posted my amateur translation here on my site. This ryuha has some unusual (by our standards) technique names and I wasn't sure how to render some of them, if I made any mistakes – I deeply apologize but it is only an amateur translation.
