@labanina Congratulations! Seems your scanlations of this series are now being excepted. Compared to your first effort where about 95% of the comments were from people who wanted you burned at the stake for "sniping" (oh, how I hate that word), I'm now the only person to mention that word (so far) in this comment section. Keep up the good work!
@FredFriendly thanks, first versions of 45 and 46 chapters were objectively shit though so the ire was somewhat justified back then.
Poorly edited MTL and all that, since I couldn't get proofreaders attention nor find TL scripts in archives at the time.
Nowadays anon-translated chapters are much better, despite my best effort to fuck them up.
I'm just a clean/TS monkey after all, lowest qualification in scanlation process,
that some would insist takes longer than 2 weeks for a 10 pages long chapter
Great chapter. It shows our boy's character growth that after he realizes that onee-chan was initially reading the situation as "he has a one-sided crush and Yamada at best is just putting up with it to be nice and at worst is using him like a simp" it mostly just bounces off of him rather than fueling his insecurities like it probably would have a dozen chapters ago (since that's how *he* figured it was as well before the hug scene in 43.)
That said, while it was a logical assumption for her to make that it was a one-sided attraction on his part it's also hilarious considering that for the majority of volumes 2 and 3 you'd be more likely to assume it's the other way around if you didn't read Ichikawa's internal monologue.
