Is this IA ? The typesetting make no sense whatsoever, I can't believe a human would mess with letters/lines spacing so much.

And never put text sideways unless it's a panel/Pilar it's beyond annoying to read.

I don't remember the story that well. Her mom is still married? I forgot about that. Having an affair and with a high schooler is wild 0_0

Try not to have the upside down text. It's hard to read but I don't mind as long as the translation is accurate and not AI. I'll assume it is until proven otherwise.

Cheers.

Something I learned from my own first attempts was that continuity and word flow was the most important thing to aim for: font continuity, size continuity, structure continuity, spacing continuity. It should "flow" basically, not make the reader have to "jump" and adapt to it. Beyond that you got the core meanings and text translated well, and there weren't many issues with the lack of subject causing nebulous translating. Just a typesetting issue overall, one you can easy address with time.

Cheers for the update on this series.

Edit: I will say, revisit page 8 and correct the bottom panel. That's one of the more glaring things people are likely to point out. MD let's you upload replacement pages.
I actually used this MD-based resource to get the "rules" of typesetting down. Might be handy.

The translation itself is not bad but typesetting needs a lot of work. The letter spacing is all over the place and words are regularly split between two line

The whole point of the manga is that Mizuki is a married woman fucking her daughter's classmate (Hinata). So yes, she's still married. Hence why the daughter thinks her mom is cheating (on her father) with Mao (Mizuki's school days crush)

Thanks to continue this one

And here I thought this ones abandoned. Glad to see it was picked up by another person! Thanks for that! The TL is good but i think it’ll be easier to read if the typesetting would be more consistent and words were not split between two lines. Please don’t abandon the series! It’s really funny and reasonably spicy.

Actually whatever happened to Squiggles? I think they had a break, since a lot of stuff I read from them wasn't updated, but then like 70% of manga they did never got another chapter

This feels like it's setting up for Haruka to tell Hinata that she thinks her mom is having an affair, and she'll forget to say that it's with Mao, so Hinata is going to freak out thinking she's been discovered herself.

The affair itself is the least surprising part about this story. From what little we’ve seen, the husband has been neglectful of his wife‘s sexual and emotional needs since their daughter was born, and has been physically absent for months. It’s a universal truth that if you don’t satisfy your partner, they’ll go somewhere else, however Mizuki has been a housewife for most of her adult life, so she is financially dependant on her husband, not to mention she feels obligated to maintain this relationship for her daughter‘s sake and this leaves her effectively trapped in an unfulfilling marriage.

The husband isn’t a sympathetic figure either if he needs his own daughter to remind him to thank his wife for the extra trouble she goes through to deliver him home-cooked meals. That‘s why I lean towards siding with Mizuki, because we actually have evidence of her doing things for her husband of her own initiative even when they’re apart, but what has the husband done for her personally?

I admit I'm surprised you're shocked over what is the literal premise of the series itself.
