Futari Bus - Ch. 10 - Special

[Silfir]

"Understands what I'm thinking even if I don't understand it myself" achievement unlocked! Well done, protag-kun! Of course, he has no idea.

 

[pataponaccount]

A fluffy story about two kids with a slow burn budding romance. Starting today, they're childhood friends.

Wait a minute...

 

[NutzYaboku77]

Childhood friends never win, so gotta deny it as much as possible

They do if the whole story is centred around one. If it's "fell in love at first sight" typa trope then there's always that childhood friend that is used as a fodder and catalyst to steer the main duos ship in the right direction. For me, I avoid those settings like plague. Childhood friend supremacy baby!!

 

[Oculunus]

The side characters are doing all the work of pushing the possibility of their relationship

 

[Ezlsnow]

Don't abbreviate it like that dude, and it's only just one syllable less

Jarvis do NOT abbreviate futari bus

Heh. All these opposition unleashes a petty devil in me. I'll abbreviate it some more!

FutaBu!

 

[MasterPannya]

they won't accept themselves as childhood friend despite all of that

 

[brndndss]

wheres Kouhei and Kaeda to school these kids about childhood friends and that those with the title can only increase in closeness

 

[skywardgem]

that bedhead moment was way too cute wtf, idk what kinda pace the mangaka's gonna aim for with these two but I'll gladly indulge in moments like that for a while longer

thanks for the chapter!

So it's like they've know each other for long but even now they don't really feel like they know each other that well, rather than keeping up with an already stablished relationship it's more so that they are getting close now.

It feels special cause it's something she didn't have before that's now a cherished part of her life.

Special enough to chat again though

Happened to me when I started to talk again with my ex (as friends)

I went out with her once more not that much later (apocaliptic decision), but that's another story.

 

[Vivafif]

I love cozy love stories like this

 

[undeed]

Heh. All these opposition unleashes a petty devil in me. I'll abbreviate it some more!

FutaBu!

So... Futa Club?

Tho, in all seriousness, I can definitely see some Japanese readers will call it FutaBasu (FutaBus)

 

[henman]

See? No romantic tension at all

 

[Chronigan]

So, I can't really tell what An is thinking either. I think she was more curious about how he would define their relationship rather than interested in romance.

 

[Castane]

Ah so she does consider him a classmate still
phew... PHEW

 

[andrybak]

Imagine being the bus driver

there's a manga where it's a whole train carriage watching them from the side: https://mangadex.org/title/157ab2cc-1fc7-4b29-8955-72d94a140982/kesa-mo-yuraretemasu

[MrMcDaes]

Blessed wingwomen doing heaven's work

At least abbreviate it to Futaba.... Bus is written in katakana, and it take the sounds, not the spelling, so it's ba, not bu. Futaba means bud.

Isn't the name Futaba already the synopsis of this manga? Two young COUPLE who grow their relationship bud little by little. And bud is typically illustrated as two leaves from one stem 🌱, just like this COUPLE who are basically one soul.

Childhood friends, but with no competition...
