I translated this a while back for Steamy Jimmy's show, but I forgot to post the full translation afterward. This is the story manga for the Super Bomberman 2 Hudson Official Guidebook. If you'd like to read along (and it will make more sense if you do), you can find it here.

[Panel 1]
SFX: ZZZZZUM!

A suspicious space ship draws near the Earth, unnoticed...
What on earth is about to happen to Bomberman...!?

[Panel 2]

Only 1 hour until arrival on Earth...

PLASMA: Huhhuhu, so this is Earth......

[Panel 3]
SFX: SHINE!

PLASMA: Our brother, Bomberman, lives here!

Page 7

[Panel 1]
SFX: SHOCK!

BOMBERMAN: Wh, whaaaat!! You're my siblings!?

[Panel 2]
(Sign: Bomberman)

(Door: It says "oshirori okotowari". "Okotowari" means "refuse"; phrases including "okotowari" are put on doors to basically indicate that they refuse solicitors, etc. I don't know what "oshirori" is or if it's even complete.)

That can't be! Such talk, after all this time!

[Panel 3]
(Shelf: I think it says "Danger Nitroglycerin", with the last half of "Nitroglycerin" being off-screen)

(Bag Magnet is holding: Present)

PRETTY: It's true, big brother. Both you and we are cyborgs created by aliens.

BRAIN: You are the prototype, so to speak, of the Bomber Cyborg... Because of a memory circuit failure, you forgot.

PLASMA: Brother!! Together we will return to our original creator!!

(Captions)
Golem Bomber - Giant of unrivaled physical strength

Brain Bomber - The genius scientist who developed the remote control bomb

Pretty Bomber - The lone woman of the 5, she uses heart-type bombs

Plasma Bomber - The leader of the 5, master of bomb throwing

Magnet Bomber - Uses magnet bombs

[Panel 4]
SFX: ["heta"; Onomatopoeia for collapsing in despair]

...Th, this is so...

[Panel 5]
Not a chance, I love Earth!

(Yellow background text)
TN: This is weird. It looks like it's saying "Munku no Sakebi!!", "Munch's Scream!!", basically drawing a comparison to Edvard Munch's "The Scream" painting, but it's spelled like "Munku no Rokebi!!" and I don't know why.

(Black background text)
but stolen (TN: Referring to how the pose was stolen from the aforementioned painting)

[Panel 1]
SFX: QWAK!!

PLASMA: Sorry, there's no use arguing about it!!

[Panel 2]
SFX: ZZZZZ

[Panel 3]
BOMBERMAN: Mmmngh... Th, this place?

PRETTY: Big brother, what happens next?

[Panel 4]
PLASMA: Um, we'll take him to the boss's place, subject him to mind control with the brainwashing machine... After that, I guess we'll withdraw the necessary information on Earth from his memory.

[Panel 5]
PRETTY: Give us the info we need so we can conquer Earth!

BOMBERMAN: Wha, what!!
Conquer Earth!?

Page 9

[Panel 1]
BOMBERMAN (thinking): Holy cow! Jesus Christ! That's what those guys are aiming for?!

I have to stop them somehow!

[Panel 2]
BOMBERMAN: Heyyy, cute little sister ♥

PRETTY: Oh, big brother! You came to!

[Panel 3]

BOMBERMAN: I'm gradually remembering things... my incredibly gorgeous little sister~

PRETTY: Ohh, that's good ♥

[Panel 4]

BOMBERMAN: I think I could remember more if I got some kind of intense shock...

I know!! What about a wake-up kiss? [TN: literally "good morning kiss"]

SFX: Waving

PRETTY: Ehhhh!? No wayyy!

MAGNET: Lewd big brother...

[Panel 5]

SFX: Deheheh

BOMBERMAN: Look, I bet if I got a kiss from a beautiful forest maiden like you, I'd surely regain my memories.

PRETTY: Well, I guess it can't be helped...

[Panel 6]

PRETTY: Well! Just a kiss on the forehead!

SFX: CLICK!

BOMBERMAN: (grin)

[Panel 7]

BOMBERMAN: Wahahaha!! Successful escape!!

SFX: JUMP!

PRETTY: Aaaan! Stupid big brother! You trampled on this girl's feelings!

[Panel 2]

BOMBERMAN: Even if we are Bomberman siblings, no matter what!!
You lost, little brother!* Repent and abandon your plans for taking over the Earth!

*(Odd note: furigana - small text - above the word "little brother" says "Magnet Bomber" instead of pronouncing the word)

[Panel 3]

MAGNET: C... crap... But we have an ace up our sleeve that you don't...

SFX: Stagger!

SFX: BLAM!

[Panel 3]

BOMBERMAN: Alright, if that's how you wanna be, I'll tell mom about the dirty books you've been keeping above the ceiling!!

MAGNET: Huh!?

Page 12

[Panel 1]

BOMBERMAN: ...Also, found your weak point! BOOM!

SFX: BOOOOMB

MAGNET: Uwaaaah!! Cheating big brother!!

[Panel 2]

BOMBERMAN: It's sad, but it can't be helped... I have to defend the Earth......

TEXT: Nanmandabu... (TN: a Buddhist prayer)

FIENDISH BOMBERS: Urrghhh... Youuuu ...

[Panel 3]

PLASMA: We're not brothers and sisters anymore!!

PRETTY: You killed big brother!!

PLASMA: Bomberman!! We'll kill you, you bastard!!
