Do people really have such bad reading comprehension that the TL needs to revisit the previous chapter to explain basic English grammar? I knew there's a lot of overlap between weebs and dipshits but jesus fuckin christ

edit: gud chap btw, thanks for scanlating
The english grammar itself wasn't the question, but the translation. I must admit I had to check the JP raw as well to make sure that that was what she was actually saying instead of the opposite (that he is not allowed to look at the girls with revealing swimsuits).

As a side note, one of the replies noticed that the dude might've been looking at girl with skimpy swimsuit to the right while the gf was talking to him and the author replied "Naturally"

She's more of a Sadodere than a Yandere. This is how Nagatoro could be if she turns on the mean side.

********************

https://the-dere-types.fandom.com/wiki/Sadodere

A sadodere is a troublemaker who enjoys manipulating others feelings, commonly taking pleasure from it. It is common that a sadodere will play with their love interest's emotions and humiliate them as well.

...

Although a sadodere enjoys hurting people, they will feel more pleasure when hurting loved ones. That's why this dere type can be confused with yandere. The difference between a yandere and sadodere is that a sadodere character enjoys doing harm, while a yandere character will only harm others to prevent them from taking their crush away from them. Yandere characters can also hurt their love interest, but they do it to get what they perceive to be a positive outcome. Yandere characters don't feel any pleasure in harming their love interest or other people. It's also possible, for a character to be both dere types and feel pleasure like a sadodere while doing these yandere actions.

(I hadn't heard of this one before...)

A more ethical version of this dere would be hiyakasudere characters, who don't like torturing their love interest to death to feel good. They also only want attention from their love interest which they extract in a seductive and teasing manner.

********************

I wonder what the name would be for someone who constantly flirted with other guys in front of you just to make you despair that you were going to lose her at any time...
Thx for the explanation

I must admit, I'm still reading this because I have no clue where the author wants to bring this.

Will she mellow out?
Will she fix the MC to be a better person?
Will the MC fix her?
Will we get a bad ending?

I have no clue! That is why I am so curious to see where it goes.

Anyway, although it's not the reason I read this, the art is amazing in its unique way.
Could just be exploring this specific fetish, without the "growth"

Honestly that's okay with me, since I don't feel like the author has set any expectations that there would be any character development.

I've also taken a look at the raws after reading the tl note and the translation is at least partially wrong.
in the raws it says: "今日はこの露出の少ないつまない水着の女しか見ちゃダメ"
露出の少ない means something like showing little skin. She says that the MC must only look at the woman who doesn't show a lot of skin as opposed to the ones he has been looking at before.

Though it's not directly mentioned, she says この...女 ,which likely means herself as there is no other woman she would use この for as この is used for things close to the speaker, and it makes more sense for it to be herself as she basically says that looking at that woman (likely her) will be boring as compared to looking at those women wearing the skimpy swimsuits

Feels like sadistic mommy. The sugar mommy that pampers you rotten while throwing insults.

Yes he did. Now that I think about it, how did the MC even meet her if he's this dysfunctional as a person based from what we've heard about him so far in the story.:thonk:
He was a young boy with a bright future. Then he met her.

i am so down fucking bad for this girl seriously

this manga is so nice, the codependence between these two characters is so good and unique
the fact that on surface level to most people this is probably seen as a super toxic relationship, but for these two characters it is everything for them
because the guy is so utterly useless, but she needs/wants the absolute trash, and in turn he is loved and recognized, so he needs her as much as she needs him, codependency is great

i would LOVE to be the mc haha PLEASE seriously PLEASE im begging haha, also love the art style

1. Ah yes, good old "Girl is waiting and a bunch of guys come to try and flirt with her saying that they should go somewhere else", classic.
2. About the above, it usually involves the guy going to the rescue saying "it's my girlfriend" (lying) or "she already said no, leave her alone". But it makes sense this guy doesn't do it.
3. She should date a hobo

Do you think if a girl says that when getting hit on, people would leave her alone?
