Futari Bus - Ch. 8 - Someone You Like

[azer89]

third wheel or wingman?

 

[Tsunjigiri]

remains to be seen, it could be to her he's still "classmate", or it could be someone else, or something else altogether

but additionally, I don't know what word the original uses, but "same class" (同級) can also just mean "same grade", which is pretty applicable to Shunpei even if they are in different schools

 

[Rafzalo]

Yeah, what I got from that conversation at the end is the An might like someone other than the MC, but maybe it’s intentionally ambiguous or the translation made it seem that way.

Not sure if the wording is weird, it sounds like she has someone in mind OTHER than our male MC. Because he isn't her classmate anymore

She is basically stating her views and answering her friend's previous question at the same time, that there are indeed some interesting people there (athletic, smart, handsome), but she doesn't feel that way since she barely know them, and for her personally, she feels like she can only like somebody after getting to know them better first.

 

[Kampfarsch]

but no more detours after school like today

Look at her, making sure they have their alone time

yeah hopefully after they develop their friendship again, theres an arc where she realises she likes shunpei

 

[caliche9700]

Aaaw, the poor kid is jealous

 

[Makinya]

Lulu is adorable. As cheerful as she looks, it seems she's pretty mature on that front and is probably gonna understand Shunpei faster than he does himself. I do think that An is keeping it vague on purpose because she knows Lulu might catch on, added to the fact that she somehow distances herself from Shunpei/her old class, like that time when his friends got on the bus and she went back to her spot by herself.

could be the case but it could also be she i trying to be conspicous its made clear she is smart, shes not gonna pull the steriotypical blunder where shes obv talking about a certain someone when trying not to

Feeling down and awkward, Shunpei decides to contemplate the terrifying stupidity of the chickens.

Nice to see a manga character be such an avid fan of Werner Herzog

I don't think it's as pressing as you guys think it is.

She's just saying that yeah, there are people in her new school that are nice, handsome or athletic (because of course there would be) but she then goes on to say that she currently has no interest in any of them, because she doesn't know them well.

I didn't get the sense that she meant "I'm planning to get to know them better before anything happens," just that that's what would need to happen before she would even consider the idea of liking someone.

Meaning our guy has like a 7-8 year head start on anyone else, he low diffs

 

[skywardgem]

Shunpei better be ready, Luluca's gonna lock in on him until he admits he has, in fact, been talking with An more often lately. On the bright side she seems like the type to instantly wingman for him once he does admit to any feelings lol

thanks for the chapter!

 

[AlkaliSky]

Ty 4 the chpt!!!!

 

[coyote_vdb]

Thanks for the translation.

Low diffs?

 

[Stahlregen]

Gay. Things get just a liiiiiiittle rocky with the girl he likes, and our protagonist already turns towards looking for cocks instead.

 

[xanon]

Lulu looks to be the type who's sharper than her image.

 

[Haydrion101]

Chicken of introspection.

Oh to be a young man wistfully staring into a chicken coup...

 

[JoeKerr]

This is one of the cutest things I've seen in a long time.
And despite how sweet it is, it's also low-carb.

 

[Castane]

Are we sure Classmate was the correct word?
