I don't know about the west but here in Southeast Asia, everyone drank alcohol when they are small lol. Accidentally mistake papa's homemade beverages for water stored inside a bottle, letting the kids get some small sip since they are being curious and annoying u during meals so you gave them a small taste and watch them bleggh cause it's adult's drink, etc..etc. It's not considered a bad thing
It happens a lot in the West also. Here in the UK, except Northern Ireland, the minimum legal age for drinking alcohol at home is five!

I love Grandma's message to Chokki that she'll be welcome regardless of her precise relation with Shun.
Also giving Chokki time to sort out her feelings, without rushing her along.
Awesome woman :)

I know he's not the focus of the panel, but Pome is adorable on page 14! And page 15! (And all the others!)

Thanks for the chapter! :D

I don't like the idea of only getting 20 pages every month so I hope next chapter has more content, it's not that quantity > quality, but's not like this chapter's quality tops the ones from before.

I hope the author is just busy and we'll go back to the previous schedule eventually.

at least there's progress and the MC's are not too dense.

who TF gets drunk 1 second after drinking alcohol
I'd challenge the 1 second estimate, just because it's manga and time passes uncertainly between the panels.

As far as quantity, Umeshu (plum wine) has a 10-15% ABV and he chugged a juice glass of it. That's like shotgunning four Budweisers back to back, or slamming 3 shots of whiskey. I drink regularly and if I did that, I'd be buzzed after a minute too. For a skinny kid who has zero alcohol tolerance, he'd be reasonably floaty.

This is true. My dad made me drink some Johnnie Walker Black Label when I was 6.

Uncensored and nonconsensual hand holding. How degenerate.

Mom give me a sip of beer when I was 8 because she doesn't want to pay more for swwet drink and I was thirsty, at a restaurant or something.
Good thing I still not a alcoholic.
Will continues the tradition.

You ever downed a glass of wine before?
Even without having breakfast, a glass of wine would not make anyone drunk in a microsecond.

I understand it is a trope, akin to the effects a fever has on the average japanese protagonist. I just think it is extremely stupid.

Ah, another great chapter, but man I hope the monthly schedule is temporary, dunno what the author said about it, maybe he is busy consulting for the anime?

Is not just a trope, look it up

Japanese, but often asians in general lack certain enzymes so they have trouble metabolizing alcohol and thus can get drunk easily, my mother has a similar genetic defect and can easily get drunk on a 2-3 glasses of red wine.
