ty for translations!

ITS SO GOOD ty for the chapter!

very excited to continue reading this manga ty for the translation!

you're telling me i could tell people to smile and remember the law of attraction and make that much money??? maybe the grifter life is for me

Emi talking about dying alone while practicing Leta-sensei's "smile the pain away" technique LOL this chapter was a bit of a painful read

The relatable job interview moment where you get caught without experience in a key area so you just have to awkwardly talk about how eager you are to learn it LOL

Fae said my handwriting on page 12 wasn't girly enough to be Emi's..... I swear it looks fine LOL

Now that we know how old Emi is, it feels like the conversations at the start of the chapter take on a slightly different meaning. For example: At first I thought it was because Yoshie might not know the cultural differences, but now that we know Emi's 40, it feels like it's being said more out...

New arc! I feel like there's a lot of potential here, and cult stuff seems like a pretty natural topic to explore for this manga. I'm interested in how this story develops (also hopefully we get to see runa again)

Even though Kokoro doesn't directly impact Hayato and Runa, I personally liked her addition to the story. She did a lot to humanize Bashi's fans and give context to how they view him. I'm pretty sure the intent was to further flesh out the main theme of brainwashing. I also just found her funny LOL

So that's the end of the brainwashing arc. Hayato in particular was a very relatable character for me, and I really enjoyed Runa and Kokoro as well. Hopefully we get to see more of Runa in the future because her story feels kinda unfinished, like she's still focusing on being self-reliant but...

The face that Kokoro makes when Bashi tells her he loves her too LOL. It's so doomed she's never getting over him.
