Thanks for the TL
Poor Adachi her insecurities are gonna be the death of her one day.

So it's a good thing that Shimamura is having this conversation and setting boundaries and expectations of what constitutes acceptable jealousy and outright mistrust of a partner.

 

[UdenEmpati]

the granularity of Shimamura's musings continues to sell this for me in a way I find riveting.

I definitely thought at the outset that it was supremely pseudo-intellectual and came off as "pontification for its own sake". I clearly no longer think that, but every new installment I'm reminded of how I've come to really enjoy how introspective she gets...especially as Adachi remains a comparative black-box of insight (at least in the monologue sense).

It's refreshing, having someone think this much about what's going on in her life, but also not spinning mentally and going nowhere or resolving anything in 25 pages. While still keeping it realistic to who it is having all these thoughts.



Great stuff. Thanks for doing what you do on the TL side.

Proper communication,
something that's really rare in romance manga

 

[blablablub]

No beating around the bush. Just straight up gay up saying what's going on. You love to see it.

BUT she was WRONG....Tarumi is not a good girl, she is a thieving cat

BUT she was WRONG....Tarumi is not a good girl, she is a thieving cat

It's kinda sad if you know what happen in the next chapter

this is really the appeal of the entire story, for me, and what you describe is highlighted even more in the novels. Shimamura is always introspective but watching her shift from a passive to proactive actor in her own life, and watching her develop her thoughts into such strong beliefs regarding Adachi is very humanly beautiful, in a way

 

[Hikineet]

Thanks for the chapter.

 

[RireMakar]

I'm way too poly for this shit... watching the way these two talk and navigate jealousy and each other's boundaries feels like horror. A lot of the time, I think that's intentional — that one breakdown double panel will live in my mind forever holy shit — but then there's chapters like this, where I can't actually tell whether this is supposed to be good improvement or not! I suppose it's certainly better than keeping secrets but it is still a nightmare scenario for me to imagine a partner where I have to navigate a conversation like that in order to keep the peace.

Good stuff, thank you for the translation!

Sometimes this manga goes from adorable…to feeling like I’m watching my neighbor, struggling to train his dog not to bark or bite anyone who gets too close to them.

He fails completely, tries to calm him down, and then he looks at me defeated, waiving weakly from far away.

In my opinion adachi is so selfish. I know she is scared of losing her, but you need to trust people more.

 

[kkakasih]

shimamura is insanely patient holy shit. its very obvious that she love adachi so much

 

[Karskii]

Still one of the most grounded romance I've read. I thought Adachi is gonna thow another tantrum but she is definitely progressing. I hope she can open up to other people more, get some friends of her own, and so she may understand where Shimanura is coming from.

amazing chapter, i absolutely love the way shimamura thinks about her life. Especially when it comes to handling her relationship with adachi (my girl needs to get some friends)
thank you for the translation! im shocked to see so little comments

Hopefully tarumi can move on. She seems like a nice person
