Amayo no Tsuki - Vol. 11 Ch. 44 - Unexpected

[Kitsune_115]

Not Kanon, Mahiro. At least insofar as Middle school Saki is concerned.

I realize you might have been making a general statement independent of the chapter, so disregard me.

Yes it was general. No worries I understand what you meant as well

Now im sad, they could have been friends from the start

Most of you (except for people like Kirin-kun) are super lucky you don't have to wait 2 weeks for half a chapter. I'm usually pretty chill about waiting for manga to come out, but this is one of the exceptions. It was torture at the time waiting for the second half to come out.

Perhaps roommates

Super glad you are working this series to the finish line.

lovebombed but she’s lovepalestine she’ll never give up

 

[Prismatic-chan]

first of all, thank you so very much for translating this.
i love you.
also, i'm going to explode if nobody confesses their feelings in the next chapter.

 

[Kamui]

Once again this manga drives home how Saki's biggest enemy is herself

Mahiro still the kind of person I dislike, but at least she seems to be a good gal and not this menace Saki's mind created.

I don't like to reward reckless behaviors, but holy shit, good going, Kanon!

 

[WolfenLady]

I'm still not sell on the middle school classmate. She still feels icky to me

 

[flowsthead]

Middle School is the absolute fucking worst. This felt so relatable to me, not because I necessarily dealt with the same issues (my own queer awakening happened later in life) but because middle school aged kids are the absolute worst combo of hormones, insecurity, and lashing out because of insecurities. It's amazing how much more chill people are as they get older, but those few years in middle school feel like they were awful if not traumatic for almost every single person I've talked to. Mine wasn't even that bad relatively, and it was still pretty shit.

So to me Saki imaging a terrible scenario and an enemy where one didn't exist feels incredibly real.

That's probably one of the most beautiful ways of describing how head over heels she felt about Kanon. Those short, staccato bits of exposition just to drive home how much the entire day melted away, how the world just fell quiet and tuned out, how there's only Kanon in her field of view. That really made my heart skip a beat.

Amazing development on Saki's end of things, one of the very few misunderstanding arcs that I can get behind.

Thanks for the chapter.

 

[Brackass]

I really like how this chapter presented her internalized homophobia. Not looking Mahiro in the eyes, not observing her reaction at all, just wholeheartedly assuming her reaction because of her own projection. It's not like there couldn't be an external antagonistic homophobe who could be an issue at some point in the future, but the more important antagonistic homophobe to deal with is the one within (lol).

thank you for sniping that group and continuing this!! we've been waiting forever.. it's been a drought

 

[yungpobo]

Thanks for the TL!

 

[Gryps2]

I am happy that Saki has made an important discovery about herself and Mahiro turned out to not be a bad person, but also Evil Mahiro is such a look. Kuzushiro should look into doing a toxic yuri series.

lovebombed but she’s lovepalestine she’ll never give up

What?
What does this even mean?

What side are you on?
What's happening?

 

[tranhere]

Oh, fuck...

She projected her internalised bullshit (lots of people deal with it) onto someone who just wanted to be friends.

The only person who hated her was herself.
Mood.

Totally agree with this. Great chapter

 

[FoolTarot]

now kith

 

[prhy]

Waaaaa!!!! First thanks for chapther and second I understand saki… it’s hard to talk

 

[dqvdqv]

Those internal projections can really wreck you, change how you think for the worst.
