I do like how his friendship with Riku is. Riku already knows of his friend's crush on An, and the fact the girls are friends means he has a fellow guy for when they're all together but dragging the boys out too. But it also means he knows when he's asked stuff it isn't necessarily teasing like the others were, and it means he can tell someone too when he wants to that won't take advantage of that.

An, Shunpei, don't worry. You'll enjoy it when the time comes. :glee::hearts::hearts::hearts:
Thank you for the translation!

In the raws, Riku calls the two brats (implying Shunpei is in the mature club like him 👀)

You know, this reminded me that when I was growing up, EVERYONE automatically drank without touching if they were borrowing a bottle.

And this might be the first time I've seen that happen/attempted in manga.

This manga is really great at creating unique and believable characters, and of focusing on just a handful makes for a lean plot, but still it's kind of a waste they don't explore the others as much.
Are you thinking of Tsurezure Children or Assassination Classroom?

Bruh, you guys already held hands, highest tier of lewdness. What's there to be ashamed of?

Thanks for the translation.
I wished the author would have skipped this ridiculous indirect kiss trope, but well, at least it was done with some taste.
I think this manga has provided the best solutions to every single romance trope up to now, from firework festivals down to indirect kiss tropes.
It actually feels like a bunch of teens navigating the topics instead of a checklist for the author to complete.

They've been married since they slept next to eachother in chapter 10 and 37
I mean sure, we know that, but in legal circles that could still technically be considered an accident. Now though, an indirect kiss has taken place, one that they both understood the meaning of ahead of time. That shits legally binding.

Is this the first chapter we have seen that shunpei has had his face blanked out? Not only was it blanked out once, but in multiple frames throughout the chapter.

Previously we have only see An's face blanked out, but im guessing the author is trying to show that shunpei is changing emotionally too.

Good progress i would say. As they both continue to dance around each other, I expect we will see a lot more blank faces for the both of em.

I get confused because in my country at 14 you are usually at first year of high school.
When I started high school I remember a dude that was 13.
If I remember right elementary is 6 year while middle and highschool are 3 years.

It feels kinda weird for Shunpei to be losing sleep over Riku and Kanako just kissing. However that's still probably all that happened between them given that the focus of the chapter was on an indirect kiss.
