judging by her mole under left eyes... thats supposed to be Alice san??

They couldnt find a half blood blonde japanese or at least get a japanese looked like one and color her hair blonde? looks so weird and awkward....
Glad after Kamen Rider Geats, Sato Ryuga is in more Dramas. He's portrayal as Kamen Rider Tycoon was really good.

Fumika Baba look so different in here. Probably because her makeup look more natural ?

I'm going to guess 2 things are in play:

1) I bet there's probably not that many legit half-foreign (at least half-foreign where their non-Japanese half isn't some other East Asian ethnicity like Chinese or Korean that would mean they are not terribly dissimilar from your average Japanese person) actors and actresses in their entertainment industry. I remember one of the more recent Godzilla movies had a character who was supposed to be half-Japanese/half-American and the daughter of the Vice President or something like that. She was played by a totally Japanese actress with just slightly brown hair who couldn't speak English if her life depended on it and it was clear she learned her English lines phonetically or by parroting an English teacher.

2) I get the sense that they don't really want that anyways. Alice is essentially Japanese in everything but some of her appearance. So they probably prefer someone who comes across as Japanese as possible rather than whose difference is obvious. Even in manga, most of the time half-foreign characters tend to basically be Japanese in every way that matters other than perhaps hair or eye color and cute cultural misunderstandings.
all they had to do, is get big booba blonde foreigner that fluent japanese for this role
or big booba japanese woman and give her wig or color her hair


the point of this manga , the plot, is how the growth, romance and struggle of someone you know have a gaijin/foreign blood growing up native in japan rural area and their issue in their life, this literally look like another japanese soap opera

You'll be surprised at how many blonde female characters in live action film and television adaptations aren't blonde

Yeah, Japan is inconsistent. Sometimes they are really accurate with their characters in live action and other times they are not.

Also it's Tycoon from Kamen Rider Geats.
Fucking Keigo Bujin Swords his way onto this one.

lol I’m imagining Mc had the same teacher as the dude from “The Bear” did lmao. My boy looks 30, that culinary school is killing him.

This was a wonderful surprise tho.

Thanks for the scanlation, it's great to have an extra chapter of this beautiful manga,

but even after a while, it seems like they're not even married/dating, strange... I expected more affection, a kiss at least, anything

Thanks for the bonus chapter, it was a really cool conclusion to one of my favourite series and a very pleasant surprise. I don't think I'm a fan of the main characters' changed looks though... :haa:
