"She confessed" -> "I turned her down"
"WhY dIdN'T yoU GiVE hEr aN AnSWeR?"

Likewise. Something seems of about the translation. I hope. Otherwise boss reached new level of stupid.

Sheesh, you guys are naggy.

There, I fixed it.
Despite the first translation being correct, it's exactly what she's asking there, "Why didn't you give her an answer?!", the interpretation was not as correct. It's implicit that Megumi is asking why Aoki didn't say "yes" to Shiori. Like, "Why didn't you give her a positive answer?"

I hope it's clearer now. If not, not going to change again.

Jokes aside and not to shit on you, that is a completely different sentence, IMO. A response that is suppose to convey "Why did you reject her? / Why didn't you give her a (positive) answer?" isn't even close to the same as "Why did you not give her an answer?". (Near) Identical sentences can mean completely different things depending on a single word or various contexts or tones. Especially across languages.

A translation (or scene or whatever in general) should reflect the message the words are conveying more so than the words themselves, because in this case it was pretty much nonsensical, even if it was "what she said" / an accurate translation. This is a good example of a situation a translator should have left a note or taken a more liberal translation that may not be accurate word wise, but accurate message / intent wise. Kinda like how you get a glossary in Shakepeare's plays or completely different translations when jokes that would be lost in translation are made.

Anyways, she's still pretty damn dumb if that's her response. The clarification / revision is appreciated.

Well we finally got Megumi to say she likes Shun, but let's all just agree that Megumi is kind of an asshole.

@Ruroumi nah Shun is as realistic as this manga gets with it's characters. This chapter only works because we know that he is patience, ready to talk and perspective. If he wasn't this would be one of the most toxic relationship

@RangoBongo Sorry for the late reply. It's a manga called Fecchipuru or Fetiple. Probably not the kind of fetish manga that you think about lol.

This is what love should be. Mutual.
Many manga always portray story of boys fight over girl ( and vice versa, especially in harem genre) which some how annoy me that it rarely show the opposite side.
people are really annoyed with her. But like I said in another comment. She is more realistic than most people can see.
people have issues, some people have serious ones. People like her surely would have issues to start not just her first romantic relationship but her first emotional relationship.
they relation is healthier than most people here think, it's just they started just now and people like her take months, sometimes years to get in the right track
