Boku dake ga Shitterun daze - Ch. 9 - This is what it is to be young

[MeganeR]

Ah youths.. How I miss ye

Anyway hmm I think mom could still change if Oura speak up and clearly say what she wants. She didn't force her to audition for the drama after all.

Japan's nape fetish remains weird.

How is it weird though? Quite a comfy place when you’re hugging too. Give her a kiss there and see her reaction.

 

[Shamgarsan]

Dude is shocked, flabbergasted, utterly astonished to read that message and discover people start conversations with that much text.

Japan's nape fetish remains weird.

Fetishes are generally weird. This one sounds simple enough, though - it's a patch of skin that's normally hidden by clothes/hair, so to see it in full view up close is unusual and precious. Also, there seems to be a pervert angle to it, since you get to look at it behind someone's back in secret. Also, sweat/soap/shampoo/perfume/warmth.

Just message her back that you already met her sister and block the shitstirring "concerned" bitch, waku!

 

[Freestyle]

she is slowly becoming possessive of him!
I'm curious what the MC's deal is, sounded like he is some sort of genius who skipped a year or could be just me overthinking it.

 

[Haruka]

I guess he didn't know yet afterall?

I think he did at the very least heavily suspect. Would still be pretty surprising that someone you just met start a conversation by attacking your friend.

Right we still have no ideas of his circumstances iirc ? He is smart, mature, doesn't seem to have been bullied, got his shit together better than most kids.

Guys he literally said it himself in the first chapter that everyone view him as some kind of child prodigy in the past, tried his best to study then proceed to crash and burn and devolve into hikikomori for a year.

HEY, WAIT A MINUTE THIS BACKSTORY SOUND SIMILAR

ah forgot about that but still we dont know much details, they dont show him being smart in his current school

Also as the other guy said he seems to have a ridiculously supportive family and his current classmates are all pretty nice to him as well.

Guess author is doing the buildup, he'll deal with Oura reveal first.

 

[Limntee]

These waku friends are kinda off, they don't seem like bad people but it looks like that they only talk to him because he's close to Oura-san

 

[lightokamii]

I can already feel my hate for her mom manifesting

 

[JGordonson]

Thanks for the translation!

I'm enjoying this manga enough to just see where the mangaka goes in terms of giving the "Who is Oura/Does Oura have a sister" thing a bigger focus.

I don't find it all that interesting personally and like how they've been handling it up until now, but whatever. As long as it doesn't get in the way of Waku and Oura just hanging out and having nice interactions then I'm cool.

Oura's mother puts a shamefully small amount of value in her being able to enjoy her school experience and was nasty for disregarding her schedule request in Ch. 8.5 (I feel like shit like this would end up sowing the seed for the talent to fire their parents eventually in real life.)

 

[abdullah17]

wow you're an idiot, waku

Based? Finally someone with a brain, I swear we're gonna see a reasonable crashout from her at some point.

I don't think it's like this, there's definitely some aspect to it because he's close to oura but it looks like the whole class (school?) is cooked. We already talked about how the school doesn't seem to care about dress code. Oura and waku are kinda off too for obvious reasons. Like there's definitely something sus going on in this whole setting and it's not because of oura, piercing girl is definitely not in the group for oura and glasses girl is the same for example.
