I have completely forgotten the blonde tbh

 

[mirewitch]

@HelloHound She's one of the mean girls from Izumi/Nanaki's old group who no longer speak to them

 

[HelloHound]

@mirewitch ahh I see; it's just real easy to forget background characters when the story moves the way it does

 

[yuzhyuzh]

this watcher gang girls version is really good at goin undercover.. Iroha as the leader..xD sad thing no praises for her..hahaha

cute chapter..now i can breathe that the guy poses no threat to the main ship..
thank you for the chapter💕

 

[KCS]

>Why am I sad
You caught the big gay you dummy

 

[Lilisionnach]

@yuzhyuzh I wouldn’t count him out just yet. I think maybe he just got a little shy, so he came up with something on the fly. He looked pretty flustered.

Though I am worried that the blonde will let slip that watcher gang is present. Next chapter will be interesting.

 

[Picks]

"Why do I feel so uneasy?"
It's the looming threat of the friend zone, dummy.

 

[Mushroom_X]

Cant wait to see moar

 

[yuzhyuzh]

@Lilisionnach now that you mention it,yeah..you got a fair point regarding this guy..if he ask Kaede again,then thats it..i hope he got discourage on Kaede's reaction when she talked about Nanaki..xD

LOL..i was actually hoping the watcher gang will be busted...i wanna see some funny stunts from Iroha if they get caught

 

[Leemac13]

Izumi, iroha, and nanaki's trio has stupidly amazing chemistry.

 

[Lilisionnach]

@yuzhyuzh I get the feeling that if he asks Kaede out she’ll agree. The old childhood friends trope. Kinda getting a “Girlfriends”-esque plot line here, but hoping I’m wrong.

 

[Xanhomey]

Thank you for the translation.

@Lilisionnach why would she agree? putting aside this being a yuri manga, if he did ask her out there'd be a lot of "gotta think about it" before she even thinks of agreeing, especially cause of her feelings for Nanaki. And I know yuri manga love their "can't talk cause we gotta have drama", but Nanaki would also not just let things be

 

[nims]

she’s so dense

 

[Eplayer]

thanks for the chapter

 

[Lilisionnach]

@Voidox We don’t really know her exact feelings for Nanaki. A couple chapters ago, she was upset that Nanaki turned Izumi down. And she just thinks he couldn’t be interested in her, since she doesn’t see herself as cute enough, not that she would reject the idea of going out with him.

And Iroha’s already planted the seed that what they’re doing at this point is a date, so who knows. It’s possible the mangaka goes a different direction, but it has been done before, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it happened here too.

@Lilisionnach

not that she would reject the idea of going out with him

um, well this is just your assumption, so I dunno what to say. There is nothing to suggest that she'd go out with him, I mean, does she even like him? She hasn't talked to him for all this time, and she isn't a character who would just go out with someone who is basically a stranger to her

heck, an argument can be made that Akio isn't actually interested in Kurokawa and just wanted someone to geek out with/catch up

Also, you seem to be dismissing the current emotions/feelings between Nanaki and Kaede. Sure we don't know Kaede's "exact" feelings, but the way she talked about Nanaki in this chapter was very much not "just a friend", even the dude recognized that. And there is fair amount of past chapters showing as such. Interestingly, we see how Kaede still has an inferiority complex when it comes to Nanaki

And again, Nanaki isn't just going to let Kaede go out with the dude without at the very least saying something, and since we know she loves her, she'd probably do more than just that

in the end, this whole thing is just there to drum up the drama. It's a common trope of yuri manga: old childhood friend shows up, misunderstanding, can't talk and all that :/ while the trope is so overused, at least it usually ends up with some sort of progress. Also "friend" is word for progress in yuri manga xD

And Iroha’s already planted the seed that what they’re doing at this point is a date, so who knows. It’s possible the mangaka goes a different direction, but it has been done before, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it happened here too.

well, you're basically saying "anything is possible" which is w.e cause sure, anything is possible... but this is still a yuri manga and tagged as such officially, and I'm looking at things presented to us in the manga and not making assumptions
