Saving Natsuki Arc. Wasn't sure this was going to happen. The paradox implications are sort of weird. But this is a silly comic. So it probably won't even come up.

Left Field Guess. The ghost is Natsuki from the future. To close the loop of her being a ghost.

A little comment on the TL. In the raws, on page 4 Ema says 精神体, not 魂 (soul). I feel like this is an important distinction to make in this type of supernatural setting, no? Tbh I don't know what the proper English translation would be either. Maybe "consciousness"?


Anyway, I feel for Mayuri here.

Shriveled up demon probably looks like a pineapple

glasses-kun sound fine to me, but again, this is not my native language.

Don't tell me they're going to change the past and Natsuki will survive, grow up and become an adult in the present

Thank you for the translation as always, good sir

Glasses-kun sounds fine. Anime/manga often have characters be referred to by a characteristic or nickname (such as Stripes-chan, Konbini-oneesan, G-san, etc), so Glasses-kun is fine here.

Mayuri is right, faerie is a really broad term and there's definitely evil fairies that don't look like little people at all. Good for her for standing her ground
I wonder what the Japanese connotations of "faerie" are.

My concept from various western sources is humanoid, maybe tiny, maybe with wings, and then morality wise they are either extremely nice or some level of inclined to fuck with you.

Maybe they have rules and they fuck with you if you don't follow them, maybe they fuck with you for funsies, maybe they don't understand or care about human concerns so there are serious consequences for you.

It's a bit larger than that... They're a bit like aliens in that regard.
