Thread: Ratchet and Clank Manga

2. Ratchet gets a snotty and bloody nose a LOT in this manga

I think I heard somewhere that in anime and manga, an exaggerated nosebleed is a sign of sexual arousal.

4. Lots of characters appear; including Vox, Juanita, Dallas, Luna, Qwark, Ratchet clones from SM, etc.
But Vox and Luna are dead!

Yeap I know that, but the bleeding noses in this manga are from injuries ;P there doesnt seem to be much 'sexual' jokes in it. Just mostly Ratchet getting beaten up and all that XD

And here's a video of me and my brother checking the manga out for the first time

I act a bit silly, so please try to excuse it XD and I'll post a few sneak peaks to my gallery. But I wont scan many/all of the pages, since it is illegal to do so emoji and it was hard to get hold of this in the first place XD

Him i use my image language translator to translate the test! if it works! you have a good scanner, my just hang up and needs color to scan something! thats just weird! nah i shouldn't be mad at it! it didn't cost too much!

Deleted user

It would be fantastic if someone could translate it, I really want to know what's happening XD but I'll list up the "Chapters" soon, nonetheless.

What is this I don't even…


You think that's mad? Oh there's much 'worse' things I haven't shown yet. Much worse XD *Shivers at the thought of that Starshield page, and the Clank hose-out-of-ass thing*

Ok, i'm not sure if i want tha manga!emojiemoji

Deleted user

Oh come on, it's funny XD weird, but funny. Nothing is meant to be taken seriously in it emoji

But yeah, These seem to be the chapters for the Manga…

Chapter 1: Hot Springs
This one is when Ratchet & Clank are just minding their own business and then all of a sudden, Ace Hardlight jumps out of the TV/HV and joins them on an adventure to Space Japan to see the famous hot springs o_O madness happens and then they have to use Clank as a snowmobile to get there through the snow XD (because the Hoverbike wouldnt work).
They arrive there and rush to get the best spot, but Ace has trouble getting his armour off, which allows Ratchet and Clank to run off to get the best pool. Then they end up fighting a gargoil and then Clank gets electricuted by Ratchet's Scorpion Flail and… uhh… yeah o_O

Chapter 2: DreadZone
This one seems to be based on DreadZone. Ace hops out of the TV once again and offers Ratchet a chance to become a famous gladiator. He agrees of course and so, he and Clank go to DreadZone with Ace and more madness begins. Ratchet acts like an idiot too, but uses the Scorpion Flail a LOT here, and even attacks Vox for no apparent reason XD Juanita and Dallas are watching.
Ace gets annoyed about Ratchet screwing things up and so, he becomes his teacher. He teaches him how to use the Landstalker and all that, but Clank and Ratchet vomit from Ace's bad driving as it seems and… err yeah XD cant explain the rest.

I'll list more soon emoji

I used to study Japanese, so I could try and translate some of the text. It'd have to be a good quality scan, though.

Deleted user

I just did a scan of the character page, a very large scan here

Maybe you'll be able to read a bit from those? Would be interesting to see how the japanese describe these characters xD

Okay, here's a rough translation. (Emphasis on rough.)

Main Character Introduction

RATCHET
Coming to the space city Megalopolis from Planet Veldin in the galaxy's countryside, Ratchet is a no-good (?) old man hero. He is unsteady, loose, and delinquent. He and Clank make the strongest (?) combination…

BTW, those question marks aren't a matter of me being unsure; they were actually there in the original text.

CLANK
Clank is a robot who escaped from the brink of a robot planet. He is serious, punctual and studious. Fixing machines is his specialty, but the garameka he makes are really useless.

I have no idea what garameka means, and I can't find a definition. Can anyone help?

QWARK
He seems to be a former famous hero, but he is now dabbling in various occupations.

ACE HARDLIGHT
The currently popular hero from the TV battle show Dreadzone.


Four panel theatre

Panel 1
Rival Ace appears!
Champion of Dreadzone, Ace Hardlight!

Panel 2
In fact, his weakness is…

Panel 3
Rain…

Panel 4
Ace: Now you know!!
RAINCOAT HEAD
Clank: Seriously!!

from what i'm seeing, Garameka seems like some kind of machine/computer or something, all i know from what i've seen on Google is that it is something technology related.

Deleted user

LOL!!!!!! That's great XD and I knew that mini-comic on the side had something to do with Ace's hair and rain XD (well, kinda obvious anyway) but yeah, what other pages do you reckon I should get in high-res for translation? Just remember, I'm not actually allowed to scan the whole thing.

But here's the list of chapters/stories in it… are you able to give an idea of what they're titled? It'll help me greatly with adding them to the R&C Wikia emoji

if only you'd know the language,you can know whats happening and the story emoji

Again, rough translation. I'd like to see the "Fake Ratchet" story, I bet they ripped off of Fake Crash emoji

Deleted user

Random as heck, but I find some of the content in what I'm seeing and reading from the translation to be enjoyably weird.

The humour is definitely something I could NEVER picture in a R&C game ever.
