Ah, a fellow F1 and wholesome manga enjoyer...

Nothing better than F1 and wholesome manga

 

[havelmom]

they already skipped the awkward start of dating phase because of the friendship and are already in the married couple honeymoon

 

[Knighto]

thanks for the hard work

"On New Year's Eve I went to my girlfriend's house to pound mochi. No really. Her mom was there.

 

[rozert]

So no blessings for couples?

They're already blessed with each other, what to wish? :")

 

[AnotherDuck]

Just cozy family stuff.

If you do it every year, it's a tradition, even if you do it at different places.

I'm not sure she has enough hair to have that hairdo.

"You already have a girlfriend, so you gotta work on your vocab for praising girls."

It's the opposite. If you're together, you learn to interpret each others' intentions better, so fewer words are needed. Doesn't mean you should stop communicating, but if you make your intent clear, that's enough. Though I disagree that he shouldn't praise any other girls. But that's up to him.

Ah, he mentioned her fragile sandals and helps her. That gives her a +2 in avoiding breaking them.

 

[fantieys]

peak as usually

 

[RolandMayfield]

Thanks for the chapter!

I really enjoyed the others teasing them with the sandals

 

[DragyVVV]

Peak as always. Festivals often come with drama in Romance Anime. Curious for the next chapters.

Umi showing her clingy gf side more and more lol. Kinda miffed they skipped a bunch of small stuff from the LN but it is what it is.

How important is the small stuff?

 

[EnFiveFour]

Thank you for the translation!

"You've hardly been around the house this year."

Like you should talk.

And Fridays are still a thing.

 

[ItsThatBriGuy]

What a lucky guy ..

Not only it's first time doing shrine visit with fren ...

But with his gf and 2 of his fren was girl ....bro literally doing shrine visit with a harem

It's not such a great thing down the line, but it's not wrong to enjoy it a little. For now.

How important is the small stuff?

World-building. Establishing the relationship with Riku more firmly (something that'll be important when we get to adapting V5), showing the depth of the bond between Umi and Maki in all its sweetness and spice (losing their banter about her bathing him while he's at her place sick was downright criminal). Those sorta things.

There are also some significant changes from the LN. Maki's insensitive comment about the mochi machine is actually part of a monologue from Sora about how long her marriage has lasted. Time is spent between Maki and Umi in her room under the pretense of playing a borrowed video game but really, in Maki's words, "messing around". Maki only goes home briefly to change into his own clothes (rather than the hand-me-downs from Riku he's been recuperating in) and is already back there when Sora is fitting Umi in her Hatsumoude gear rather than meeting up with her near the shrine later. Umi's jealousy when Yuu flirts (semi-unconsciously) with Maki is a lot more demonstrative than her little pout here (sure hope his side healed quickly). And Maki is well-versed in shrine etiquette, despite rarely making the annual visit; Nina is the one who blanks on it every time.

The last chapter and a half covered about 70 pages of the EN version of the LN, so we lost a lot.

Bro's wishing for the good health for himself, his wife and their future 12 children.
