It's always amazing to see how this guy is able to go that far off the deep end and still keep that poker face he always has.

Also, all of that catalogue shopping just to match accessories with the lil' sis? Adorable.

Ngl I have been tempted to go up to strangers and be like "hey neither of us would buy this at full price, but we also don't need as much as we need to buy for the discount. Want to split?"

Considering he’s liked feminine(?) things as a teen/i imagine he’s had years of practice repressing himself , unfortunately

I wonder if he has any female siblings/cousins , be amusing if we got a flash back of him “forced” to crossdress or so and parents disapproving so he has to hide it even more

I mean depends on your culture or how friendly ur neighborhood is, my dad will make small talk with the cashier but they never talk to ppl in western grocery stores but they’ll chime in/comment on Asian grocery stores if they’re talking about the prices or ingredients

But I have heard of ppl offering to pay grocery’s for other ppl either around the holidays or offering to pay for a homeless person with card instead of giving them cash directly if not like a flirting? Technique but awkward if you aren’t already like college acquaintances or so

Love how train ad is about hair removal, even with MCs stubble I imagine full beards aren’t as common, tho I suppose depending on the price/permanence it might be “worth it” to never shave again


Crowded train, but there's still a magical buffer around the JK.
I mean the story isn’t that serious but I can imagine other than female only train areas, idk if Hikaru would
Bc he’s just a crossdresser rather than trans (tho idk if women in JP would still allow that), I think some ppl would avoid a young teenage girl just so they don’t accuse of being groped or so since mc had a “fantasy”/stray thought about being “blackmailed/charged” just for looking at “her” too long lol

woo Sanrio name drop, I imagine the smaller accessories being cheap but wouldn’t be surprised if the plushies were overpriced , unless they’re cheaper /because/ they’re in JP vs a non JP country selling hello kitty goods Tho I’d still wanna go into a physical store versus ordering online so you don’t get a bootleg knock off then again if it’s the official catalogue it’s prolly legit

the magazine is obviously titled "Sunho" so i am very confused as why the translators keep calling it "Sanrio". sanrio (サンリオ) and the parent company of the magazine, Sun Hoseki (サン宝石) both have サン in their names, but they're not related. i swear, people first mix sanrio up with san-x and now they do it again with another company.
sun hoseki's official character is called "hoppe-chan" for its faux gem cheeks. its name does not come from hopping around.

OK, honest mistake as I had never heard of Sun Hoseki and typing Sunho into google provided me a lot of famous Korean people. I had, however, heard of Sanrio and assumed that they just used a different name in Japan as sometimes happens. The pitfalls of not being a native I'm afraid. So, how about calming down a few notches and realise that not everyone in the room is as knowledgeable as you. Thank you for the correction. The pages have been amended.

Yeah, came basically to say this. I love his deadpan expression. Hell, almost dead expression. Meanwhile his mind is racing.
