Well, I agree... I think both was in the wrong. Riona was taking it too far when playing pretend and Karin got scared. Karin was in the wrong as she kept her silence as the rumor spread. It'd be unrealistic if they just shrug it of and make up. I love how they are both described in the story and how the story goes so far.Honestly I don't agree so much that Karin is super in the wrong here? Like at such a young age getting really scared/anxious when someone makes unexpected sexual advances and telling your close friends about it is super normal I think, and its clear she also understands how things have been blown out of proportion by those friends telling the rest of the school and is trying in some way to remedy that by telling her friends Riona isn't really like that and going to apologize to her directly.
Obviously it'd be better if she accepted that what she did was the root cause of things but again, she's just a kid. When you're that age its really hard to admit fault, especially if you were wronged in some way (which I do think she was)
Yeah I agree they're both wrong! I'd appreciate if they talked about their feelings in full and actually came to understand each other's emotions but honestly don't really think this is that kinda mangaWell, I agree...

redditorWhen I read things like that, it really empathize how different I am from the norm. All I did in middle school was ignore my bullies, smartly finish all the fights they started with me (and by that I mean decking them when there was no authority to tell me it's bad to reciprocate) and minding my own business because others kids my age were not worth the effort and books were more flavorful.
I think it's good for people to debate as long as they don't resort to personal attacks or being rude. \o/wow this thread is wild
yeah i think this convo was pretty fun actually! i enjoy seeing how people interpret media in ways that i dont (and also im reaaaally bored trying to procrastinate an assignment today)I think it's good for people to debate as long as they don't resort to personal attacks or being rude. \o/
Sexually abused? I can always count on mangadex comments to have at least one person unironically posting an insane take like this lmao.Did you expect someone who get sexual abused just keep silent and okay with it?
fixed, thanks!Couple of corrections:
p14: Judging from the raws, it's supposed to be AI (ey-aye) not Aー (long A)
p19: weirdos got got way
it wasn't out of the blue, they clearly stated they had been playing pretend lovers for a while, and after Riona went for the tongue kiss and Karin went along with, that send mixed signals that maybe she might be willing to become real lovers instead of just pretend.I actually think Karin is a fine character, having someone just make out with you out of the blue would be shocking and she shows regret for having told her classmates about it, we're not dealing with adults here (for the most part).
I really like this series so far, thanks for the update! Also the font change was an improvement I feel. Great work as usual Zeztie.
was not 100% sure of what this meant when I was translating this, the original text said この前だって自分からドブにつっこんでいったし which I read as "she threw herself into a ditch before this", but being that she never literally jumped into a ditch before this, I went with what's currently there.“It’s not my fault that the other girls are outright saying ‘I would throw her in a ditch.’”
