NOTE: WBp#'s are printed first, Normal manga pages in parenthesis()
NOTE: Translation is done from BOTH the WB and normal manga. So depending on
      which one you have there may be a few extra items.
      Example: The subtitles on page 171 (169) are only in the WB'S!

Comments on the revision (CN):  Besides inserting the romaji, a few missing
 lines and the wideban subtitles were translated, as well as many missing
 FXs, stutters, exclamations and honorifics.  During editing, other lines
 were modified by the members of the translation team.  For the purposes
 of translating, visual cues were also inserted to allow those without
 the manga to also contribute to the translation effort.  [This script is
 not intended to be a substitute for the manga; you'd only be cheating
 yourself...]
