Houkago Kitaku Biyori - Ch. 62 - Let's Do Something Different from Everyone Else

[nomunire]

At this point, I can imagine these two having a kid without either ever exchanging contact info or confessing, citing “Romance” as the inciting incident. Maybe they can use that for the name.

 

[Gu7]

i know it's a slow burn but i'm being stewed over here

 

[ozBY]

Well I cant blame my boi shun at this point Im blaming chokki for making things that complicated between them what do you mean by "my precious kouhai" just go ahead and accept that you like him or you`ll really lose him after you graduate you idiot romantic

 

[rymar]

They say love makes you stupid, guess there is some truth to it.
The romance of drifting apart cause she moved away to go to college.
Great stuff!

 

[Purplelibraryguy]

But you eventually run out of bubble gum. And then what?

Then you kick ass.

 

[Umbrum]

Mite mite
Beni imo taruto

 

[AlohaBorealis]

he’s still just a “precious junior” for now.

I’d flip a table but it would just inconvenience everyone else.

 

[LivingStickman]

they're already dating, they just didn't know it yet lol

 

[Umbrum]

I'll be honest, and I know it's kind of a mean thing to say, but I think KyoAni has fallen off, particularly since they don't do cute SoL anime like this anymore.

Thank you for the translation!

She popped the question! I never would have guessed. But he is standing strong! Well done!

It hurts when he says "won't you forget about me?" Because despite all we've seen Shun still feels that he can be forgotten by Chokki.

And what does he get in response? "You sure love the hyper go home rules little guy XD"! Not her reassuring Shun to some way, in some degree that he is unforgettable outside of their "club" and him being a "junior". There was no "I will never forget you as an individual person" but a sort of "you'll be part of a fond amalgam of feelings I had in school". The "bond" comment was predicated on the club, and followed by him being a junior. And maybe she was being deep or coy, but unfortunately we know Shun's thoughts: "precious junior huh?" That sounds pretty deflated to me.

Listen, I'd be mad at my bro if I said, "Hey man, I hope you don't forget about me" and I get a fist bump with a "You're a valued member of this organization and our shared commitment to the task enshrined by our core competencies".

I'm starting to feel bad for Shun. Chokki is more complicated than your average person. They have just rolled with things in their care free days, but have we seen them really overcome a struggle? What if there is some inevitable stress that a true relationship brings where you need someone to rely on or be accountable. A previous poster joked about her letting Shun know she's in labor by carrier pigeon, but imagine them handling any sort of mundane family crisis. It's comedy from the outside but tragedy on the inside if they have a future together.

Wooohhh... idk why, but besides feeling happy seeing MC getting closer with Chokki-chan, which is incredibly wholesome Btw, for some reason, something still feels a bit off about this chapter.

thank you for translation

"Something still feels a bit off about this chapter"

He thinks the relationship between them could fall apart at any moment and she ends the chapter accepting the distance between them despite all her friend's warnings

 

[carmozo]

Then you kick ass.

I kick ass for the lord!

 

[ReasonableSuspicion]

 

[Lyanhyrt]

Way to shoot yourself in the foot.

 

[EnFiveFour]

I don't think she'll forget him. Probably she's scared, very scared. Of forgetting him, of her own feelings, of graduating without being able to tell him how she feels, of being rejected... The entry exams are not making it easy for her to process all that's happening. So she's been using the Hyper Go-Home Club stuff as a shield.
But now Shun has turned the club rules into a true romantic bond. Let's see how much she can resist and who'll confess first.
Great chapter! Thank you for the translation!

PS: My poor heart! That hug has just killed me!

Did you watch City The Animation last year? As much as it's full of absurd/surreal moments, it's essentially a cute SoL. And that show was gorgeous! KyoAni racked up the W's on that one.

I just don’t get it. You can have her number for when you can’t reach her, and still do their ‘romantic’ things like postcards and letters. This isn’t an either or type of situation, you can walk AND chew bubblegum!

This on so many levels.
Generational fumble by both, here

This is dumb, he is dumb.

Way to show you have zero faith in your connection that just exchanging contact info relegates you to the same status as everyone else. I guess literally everything that has happened up until this point means absolutely nothing and your bond is so fragile that exchanging contact information is enough to break it

We use our phones everyday for every thing. If they could talk whenever they wanted it wouldn't be special. Having to take time to communicate, making it a priority instead of doing it while browsing the web or reading between text makes you more present in the interaction, makes it more important and meaningful.

If he had texted those pictures they wouldn't have been able to talk to each other like this.
