An extra long chapter this time, nice.

I guess this...slenderwomen?...is related to what the alter was originally for. It appears to be different from the Jumping Women. Her arms are normally raised while on the talisman arms are always down.

I noticed that some of the phenomenons seem to heavily target women. Most of the victims are women and even the shrine dolls appear to be mostly feminine (it even has an anime figurine). The exception appears to be the Jumping Women. Perhaps these phenomenons are looking/targeting her?

On a side note, I really wish they labeled the chapters. The editor parts of the story constantly reference them but there are already so many and apparently more to come, it's hard to keep track.

My bet is that the sticker is depicting the giant figure with chalk-white feet from the sanatorium incident in ch.2. Also, I'm guessing that figure is the one inviting women to the mountain to become its bride, like K-chan from ch.1 did.

Interesting idea about the phenomena looking for the Jumping Woman. Maybe it's tied to the concepts of main god and the other gods of the shrine/mountain? Initially, I was thinking that the Jumping Woman is someone who fell victim to the mountain and is now desperately trying to reach out to the living out of some lingering attachment/as a warning? The girl who was looking for the rental property did abandon her initial idea of moving close to the mountain as a result after all. Not sure as to how it helped the psychology student though.

What an interesting manga so far. I am not able to really figure out what is going on yet though.

Still, thank you for the translation!
