Turns out "Nagatsuki" is Japanese for "Bluebeard"!

Romantic chicken and a return to the series' roots of being the Death Note of being trans and gay. As far as this specific bout goes, competitive spirit and a pretext for seduction/flirting seems to be the main thing as far as Tachibana is concerned.

Onee is/is not the star of a spinoff that started a couple months ago.

Japanese can be weird with loanwords, apparently. Karakuri Circus also had an anime adaptation back in 2018-2019, which I mainly remember for the OPs and EDs and the bonkers way the plot wound up going overall.

To compound the documentation of confusion, I went back and re-watched the episode of the anime where the character is first introduced (Season 1 Episode 7, about halfway through), and she clearly says エレローラ in the audio there as well. So either there's some kind of weird Mandela Effect going...

I'm not with the team and haven't seen the raw but I feel it important to make it known that I found someone on one of the novel translation sites asking the exact opposite question and saying the raws say エレノーラ, which is also how it's rendered on the Wikipedia page.

I'm not about to play defense for child abuse here, but it is worth keeping the scope of things accurate: She hit her hard enough to draw blood, panicked and called an ambulance, and it turned out the wound was shallow and healed immediately. Obviously the message is not that It's Okay To Hit...

Like, Keima from Lazy Dungeon Master has "the Create Golem spell is actually OP because of how flexible it is in what you can make with it and how the dungeon system allocates resource costs" as an early plot point, and figuring out how to use that to do other bullshit is, if not always the...

And Yasuhara-sensei really put in the effort on those names, huh A megane named Megaki and a character with eye-concealing bangs named Kakuregi Cultural exchange takes many forms

Sex with a human male, but for understandable reasons she does not want to have sex with someone she does not love solely to deal with the plot-magic cat-curse if she can avoid it.

Without seeing the raws, I'm guessing "vomit" was meant figuratively in the sense of "spit it out," i.e. talk under interrogation.

Rura continuing to demonstrate why her subscribers love her with that list she had.

Yup. They're homophones, which has been the result of at least one janky fansub from back in the day.

Butterfly-san has cold hands.

Grid is non-diegetically transparent so you can see the face. Semi-common artistic shortcut because preserving the partial covering of the face doesn't really serve any purpose.

Well of course. Mileage is the point of that technique!

Last June, apparently.

Because they're Japanese and that's a common way to address a stranger who is not visibly an older adult or a small child. If they looked elderly they'd be calling each other Ojii-san and Obaa-san despite not being each other's grandparents for the same reason.

The Chapter 1 flashback seems to indicate it's because he's kind, considerate, and has had her back for a long time. Can't remember if it got elaborated upon on Misato's end between then and now between the present-day RomComDram Shenanigans™.
