Robyn's Note: Translation mostly done for practice, but I felt pretty confident in my English wording. What is here is what I originally had written. Rewording occurred in Photoshop to make it fit the area it was in and look better.

英雄伝
"Hero Report"

(I can only guess the little "dadan dan dan" is mostly sort of a sound effect using 'dan' that is 'report'.)

ゴーストの眼魂「アイコン」にやどっている英雄たちはどんなひとだてのか、紹介するよ！
Inside Ghost's Eyecons dwell people's heroes. Let's introduce them!

第１回
宮本武蔵／トーマス・アルバ・エヂソン
First Round:
Miyamoto Musashi / Thomas Alva Edison

１回も負けたことがない剣の達人！
◀︎両手に一本ずつ刀を持って戦う「二天一流」を考えた。60歳のときに書いた「五輪の書」には作戦のたて方などが書いてある。
▼お風呂がきらいで、髪はボサボサ、着物もボロボロ。巌流島の戦いのとき、小次郎は、武蔵の体が臭くて負けたのかも!?

宮本武蔵　『日本』　（1584ごろ〜1645年）
江戸時代に活躍した剣の達人。60回以上の決闘をして、1回も負けなかったといわれている。有名な巌流島の戦いでは、刀ではなく舟をこぐときに使う「かい」で戦って、佐々木小次郎に勝利したぞ！

This Sword Master didn't lose even once!
◀︎Musashi developed the "Niten Ichi-ryuu" ("Two Heavens, One Style") style of fighting with two katana at once. Around age 60, he wrote "The Book of Five Rings" ("Go Rin No Sho") which was about the 'Way of Strategy' and his sword-fighting technique.
▼His hair was messy, and kimono was falling apart, as he disliked baths. Maybe Kojirou lost the duel on Ganryujima because of Musashi's terrible body odor?

Miyamoto Musashi　『Japan』　（c.1584 - 1645）
A Remarkable Swordsman in the Edo Period. With over 60 duels, it's said he never lost once. In the famous duel on Ganryuujima, he used a boat oar rather than a katana, and defeated Sasaki Kojirou!


いろんなことが気になってしょうがない！
▼ある日、ガチョウのたまごを自分でかえそうと、鳥小屋でたまごをあたためていた。ガチョウのお母さんもビックリ!?
►汽車の中で新聞を売ってかせいたお金で、実験に使う薬や道具を買っていた。貨物室で実験をしていたんだって！

トーマス・アルバ・エヂソン　『アメリカ』　（1847〜1931年）
40時間以上光り続ける電球や蓄音機（音を記録したり再生する機械）など、1300以上の発明をした人。エヂソンはのこした「天才は1％のひらめきと99％の汗」という言葉は、たくさん努力することが大切だという意味だよ！

He couldn't help but be curious about various things!
▼One day, he incubated goose eggs, warming them in the aviary himself.
Was the mother goose also surprised!?
►He sold newspapers on steam trains to earn money to buy chemistry tools, which he used to conduct experiments. He even experimented in the cargo hold!

Thomas Alva Edison　『America』　（1847 - 1931）
This one person created over 1300 inventions, including a lightbulb that shone over 40 hours and a gramophone! (A machine that played recorded sounds.) Edison's most famous quote, "Genius is 99% perspiration and 1% inspiration," means that it's important to work hard!

I did end up transcribing the copyright info at the bottom because I couldn't clean it up any other way and didn't want to remove it completely. So I'm also copying it here. ^ o^
