That blindfold makes it thrice as hot, very nice. I wish they tried to have more panels with her blushing with blindfold on without drawing eyes beneath it.

I get annoyed every time I reread this chapter, so I guess I'm finally gonna post about it:

Hammurabi did not coin the phrase "an eye for an eye". While the Code of Hammurabi is notable for its use of reciprocal punishment and does include provisions about loss of eyes and teeth, the phrase itself comes from the Book of Exodus in the Bible.

@Daxar Well, the title is probably symbolic, so it's not easy to translate.

熱を帯びる means "tinged with heat", "feverish" or even "passion".

It's a feeling of warmth, excitement, increased tension, emotional.

https://thesaurus.weblio.jp/content/熱を帯びる are all the meanings of 熱を帯びる

So, the title could translate something like "The Anemone Gets Hot/Warm", or "The Anemone In Passion", "The Anemone Becomes Lively/Emotional". But certainly not in the "in heat" (as in, looking for sex) meaning.

It's clearly The Anemone, the flower, unless there's a character named Anemone (and I don't see any).

And flower symbolism is something that Japanese (especially women) can take seriously. It's called Hanakotoba.

In Japan, red anemones say “I love you”; white anemones symbolize sincerity, anticipation and hope; purple says “I trust and wait for you”.

More generally, the anemone symbolizes forsaken love.

So, translating the title exactly, or the feeling the author wants to give, is quite arduous, because there are probably multiple layers of meaning that would be lost in translation.

Best bet would probably to just use the romanized title, to play it safe, "Anemone Wa Netsu O Obiru"

Heck, 'Anemone's Passion' would be a better English title than the current one. I was avoiding this for a while cause the name made me think it was a lot spicier than it is.

How do the translations of series names get decided on here, anyway? Can this one be changed?
