My Girlfriend's Not Here Today - Vol. 7 Ch. 33 - Protection & Amusement

[MangaDex]

 

[Manko-sensei]

Duck face asks sad duck "are we going back for real?":

 

[UdenEmpati]

Ah yes.
"Introducing as a dear friend!"

Honestly that makes me wonder if Nanase has some familial-learned internalized homophobia or something. I know Japan is still somewhat broadly conservative on that matter, but the degree to which she's hiding her relationship from nearly everyone feels like a fear/aversion response, at this point.

Mainly because I choose to believe that she's not ashamed of Yuni, because otherwise I'd expect her to have dumped Yuni the moment the cheating was revealed.

Fuuko being dragged back(?) under by Glasses is another wrinkle, but not enough info to say anything substantive yet.

Also Yuni is absolutely going back to Fuuko, not even kidding myself, because that opens the door for Nanase to cheat with her best friend, because why the hell else is she there being "all concerned and protective and understanding".

What a trashfire haha. Fantastic toxic yuri.

"as a dear friend" Somehow Nanase threw the occasion herself
She got in Fuuko's arms faster than I thought
Thank you for your work!

 

[tbvp]

ty for the chapter!

 

[Ichaivalrose]

Who what

 

[Fahadxyuu]

Ooh that sensei side eye, age gap yuri would be nice too

 

[vannn]

"Let me introduce you to my family."

Good start

"As a friend!"

...fumbled

I'm reaching the point where I'm no longer feeling sorry for Nanase, yeah. I applaud her wanting to try and make it work with Yuni--I would have drawn the line at the repeated cheating, personally, and focused on the clearly-more-important-than-my-secret-girlfriend volleyball career. But if she's going to continue like this?

Unless it's some fear-response to a bigoted family or something (and if it is, just tell Yuni the truth about that)...she's really just returning to their initial status quo with Yuni, and if that happens, it's on a matter of time before Fuuko gets another "comfort-excuse" shot.

 

[rezced]

thanks for the tl. Man, our toxic couple is back .
Hope we get the past story between Fuuko and Mashiro. I'm dying to know why Fuuko has sweared to protect Yuni (from mashiro it seem, seeing how the panel showing her was next)

 

[Mangamoz]

Eh...
I don't remember who was who...

Gonna have to go to other sites to reread the story again to refreshen my mind.

 

[Yuri_Enjoyer_Deluxe]

Ah shit, here we go again...

Rent A Girlfriend is back in town boys!!!

 

[UdenEmpati]

Ah shit, here we go again...

I somehow still respect Yuni more than Kazuya.

 

[Riktasi]

Nanase is still very much chained up by her projection of homophobia. She's afraid of everyone around her being homophobic and afraid of reliving her previous experience of unrequited love and risk of social outcast. The only reason she still tries to be with Yuni is because she's a "safe choice" in that Yuni has already revealed herself to be a real lesbian, so there's no longer the struggle of going through the song and dance of "straight or gay?" that she would have to do with a new girl. This probably also applies to Fuuko; she sees Yuni as low hanging fruit since she knows all the weaknesses of Yuni's relationship with Nanase and can promise a stronger relationship.

I guess an electric fire is better than a widlfire 🦅

Idk man if I was Nanase I too wouldn't advertise to people that Yuni is my GF especially since she cheated and keeps on cheating, infact I hope Nanase does a revenge move to dunk on those cheaters but the reality is that I agree with you and I imagine Nanase is going to cheat on Yuni with that other girl which would be hilarious, everyone cheating on everyone

I wonder if your girl cheats on you but your still with your girl, if you hook up with someone else...is it still considered cheating

 

[T-sama]

Let's see Nanase defenders twist themselves into a pretzel to justify this bullshit lol

Seriously, if Yuni didn't question it things would have been worse, cause in the day it happens she would be hit with a slap in the face when Nanase introduces her as a friend even though she expected to be introduced as her girlfriend

I think I said before and I'll repeat, at this point Nanase deserves whatever happens with her

Only way I see a relationship working is if she decides to get a cuck chair :v

well - I'm coming at it from the start, when Nanase wanted to keep their entire relationship under wraps from everyone, and just treated Yuni like a friend while at school and rebuffed all her attempts at affection/togetherness out of fear of being seen by someone else.

And Yuni didn't communicate her worries and objections of being sidelined, yes. I fully fault Yuni the most out of anyone - because all she had to do was speak up, and I bet Nanase would have done something at that point, however unintentionally neglectful she may have been up to the time Fuuko stepped in.

And yes, it's still considered cheating. "two wrongs don't make a right", as the saying goes - if Nanase doesn't want to be hypocritical, she should break up with Yuni before she goes off with Yuka (or whatever her friend's name is, I can't be assed to actually remember).
