The matching glasses scene is so adorable.
And that wraps up Volume 5. Big thanks to GoggledAnon for being so fast with both translating and proofreading.

Merry Christmas everyone.

Thank you for the translations, they're great. Also the little things like keeping the word "oshi" just made me realize once more how blessed we are with you guys. Merry christmas!

Thanks for the cluster chapters, Merry Christmas to everyone!

Aju tried poking fun at Naori & Hinata but Naori genuinely seems not to care and Hinata had couple's glasses on her mind. She never wastes any chance to reaffirm her relationship with Naori, even if that means showing off to a random cashier lol. "Boyfriend," she says? Funny.

We also noticed you gazing into Hinata's eyes, Naori. New guy seems to be sitting in front of an Aju poster? And as the authors said, I'm looking forward to more Naori and Hinata adventures!

First, Thanks for the translation!
Second, how official are they, as in do they both think themself together as an couple already or not, it kinda confuses me, excuse my inability to read into lines too much I know they both are so into each other, and hinata probably realized that too (Chapter 23 and 24) but what about Naori? She seems to not realize it fully yet but i dont knoooww.....
Someone clear it up for me....

Hinata=down bad. For Naori it's not as much about not realizing it. She has some self worth issues that hold her back from believing she measures up with Hinata. Add on that Hinata is basically a princess and Naori's self worth issues compound even more.

Some of Naori's push to help Hinata (& the oni) is to prove to herself that she's worthy of Hinata. I think she'll have to get over that stuff first. In the meantime they're basically already a couple (and everyone treats them as such) but haven't sat down to discuss what they are yet.

Hinata seems to recognize Naori's issues, shows patience and tries to help. But it's clear Naori feels strongly for Hinata and thinks of her romantically (like this chapter's gazing into Hinata's eyes, or accepting the couple's glasses when she had the chance to change them, holding hands while Hinata was sick, etc. etc.).

Evidence: They sleep in the same bed, in a "love nest", match each other like pair glasses, nearly kissed onscreen, agreed to be together for a single purpose. Hinata is obvious about romance, and Naori doesn't mind when others see them as a couple.

Roommates. This manga won't shy away from showing kissing or long-term commitment. To be fair, for secondary characters or a more chaste/censored story the evidence would be enough to say they're basically married. Naori's lack of awareness or acknowledgement of situations is inconsistent and sometimes annoying imo, but she has some self-esteem issues (last chapter rules out comphet). Hinata knows it's fully mutual attraction since the near-kiss incident at the latest, but Naori has to clearly express herself when not blackout drunk for things to progress.

while I'm a bit disappointed that this is just a filler chapter with little plot progression, I'm also super happy that we are just having some Hinata & Naori cute moment.

just my opinion but: this series might be the only one where I don't like having a serious plot. Not only because the plot is taking away all the yuri time, but also because the plot doesn't interest me at all (also, I keep fearing that the series will be axed or end too soon, and the plot will be rushed without having a satisfying end).

anw, big thanks to all the people who participated in translating this! You're all super amazing for pumping out all these chapters so fast!!

 

[Cornonthekopp]

Thanks for all the chapters lately, this is a really unique story so I get very excited each update. I do wish they would kiss soon lmao but I can appreciate a good story driven slow burn type of thing. Kinda reminds me of otherside picnic in that way, "bartending is the most intimate relationship in the world" and all that

 

[Manchura]

alcohol solves all your alcoholic monster problems is all this has taught me

 

[galaxia9]

They're so cute together. Thanks for translating this adorable series.

 

[titundo]

Is it bad that when they're talking about "pair glasses", first thing I thought about are glasses that go over your eyes? Like, wwwhhhyyyy... oh wait, oh yeah....

But yeah, can't wait for the next volume. New characters and possibly more action, yay!

 

[Alex_Grey]

So, am I the only one who thinks the masked guy is Naori's grandpa?

 

[RexNemorensis]

"Can you drink your way out of this one?"

Spoiler: CAN I??
