Kesa mo Yuraretemasu - Ch. 36 - They Still Haven't Met This Morning

[Kaito57]

Straight at the beginning, Author keeps pushing the knife from last chapter deeper...

Dear God : our Boy is ready to lock in like a freaking Champ the second someone he cares might need him to !!

Last Page be like : "I'm here to talk to you about the Wingmen Initiative..."

 

[Hadski]

Welcome back to the epic romcom series that even their friends want to root for the main couple

Here comes the cavalry!!!
Happy Holidays everyone

I still really enjoy the loop and characters and am giga intrigued by Kirishima's story but I hope that if they do get involved it isn't any further than anyone did until now. This has been doing mighty fine without lame tropes and I think the distance and back and forth between all groups has been a big reason why this is so enjoyable.

using "them" means that the exact same text can be used for both parties.

putting "him/her" just looks clunky in a single speech bubble - "them" is elegant and still technically correct, and even relevant (given how contextually vague Japanese can be when it comes to pronoun usage).

I disagree. In this case, we all know the gender of everyone involved already so using them invoke a sense of unfamiliarity. Putting him/her points directly to the ones being mentioned in context and remove that barrier. This is the better solution than a vague pronoun.

Pog the friends are coming in for the clutch ! Thanks for the chapter and merry christmas !

"him/her" just doesn't look good when used in speech bubble format in cases like this.

If it were audio dialogue where they were speaking over one another, it would be...honestly not sure on that front, either. If only because of the audio garbling, but I think it would be more permissible with disparate VA dialogue overlapped.

Given the point and intent is that the two of them are saying the same thing, having it conveyed with identical dialogue beats out any weirdness with pronoun usage, and "them" still works even if genders are known, in that sense - and the physical placement of "him / her" in a single speech bubble just looks weird from an visual aesthetic standpoint in printed image & text media like this.

The person who said they changed it to "you" was most correct I think, even if it would marginally change whatever the original literal translation would be on all of those same points, so it's kind of a moot point in my mind.

Thanks for the scanlation.
HOLY SHIT YES YAY LETS GOOOO

So is the festival less 'fate' than we thought, if the wingfriends are getting involved?

 

[Mafeb]

It's time for the wingsquad to shine!

Also, she's taken already, so I wouldn't hope too much for a side ship of mutual besties

 

[mangadexer01]

the friends gonna come in clutch!

 

[drEJ]

I am honestly more invested on Kirishima's out of nowhere family drama, and out of nowhere potential ship with Nayu's friend, than on the main couple, since they are not going anywhere any time soon

That would be so peak to see this develop. Need it for my two goats ❤️

 

[GreenSmoke]

First chapter entirely outside of the train I believe? Interesting, it feels like the world is suddenly expending.

Fantastic that those two are meeting, they're the perfect tag team to bring both of those idiots together. I guess that the meeting during the festival won't be a twist of fate then, but rather engineered by their best friends.

Him/her looks perfectly find in speech bubbles. It shows that both are having the same thought, just that one word being different because they're referring to each other. I've seen so many works where it's done that way and it's never looked off. When you read it in your mind, you hear two voices overlapping, with one saying 'him' and the other saying 'her'.

It's not even just for pronouns; I've seen instances where multiple characters are saying the same thing, but they each have a different way of addressing the person they're talking to (for example, one uses their name, another uses a nickname and the third uses a title or honourific), and it's handled the exact same way.

'Them' doesn't make sense because they each know the other's gender, so they wouldn't naturally use gender-neutral pronouns. Even if grammatically it works, in context it doesn't.

Thanks for the chapter :D And merry Christmas Eve everyone!!

It's happening... The geniuses are plotting together. Reminder that Himari masterminded all of this, the little schemer.

Also, a Kirishima family sideplot is very welcome, though not at all unexpected. With how he views life, there was just no way he doesn't experience his share of trouble. A Kirishima and Himari sideplot is welcome as well... Again, it's not the most unexpected turn of events, but HOlY THE SIDE SHIP IS SAILING!! I REPEAT, THE SIDE SHIP IS SAILING!!!!

This is probably the best Christmas Eve I have had in a while.

 

[YamiryuuZero]

The friend of a friend I ship my friend with is my friend too!

 

[panzerkampfwagyu]

A nice christmas lunch, how delish of a chapter

 

[outinthegardener]

Side characters are here to grease the axles on this... ship? Train?.

 

[EulBassist]

Oooooh I'm liking this!

Thank you very much for the chapter!

 

[Sky_Ravager]

LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

thanks for the chapter and happy holidays, everyone!
