RED YURI!!!!!!! LETS GOOOOOO AYA YOU BISH CALLING MITSUKI A CHEATER. She do be cute tho I don't blame you ALSO KORN LETS GOOOOOOOO can't wait for you guys to complain about the authors bad taste on this one

 

[Hicleric]

Well...she's not exactly wrong 🤘 🤘

 

[UdenEmpati]

Wonder if the line will be "Shu's seemingly always in a bad mood because of chronic pain".
It'd certainly be valid justification for her perma-grouchy-ness.

Feels like it could go two ways, though (or I guess more, but two bigger ones at a glance).

• Shu likes Aya, but can't square herself with being gay, but creates some sort of yuri triangle to push Aya & Mitsuki to finally confront one another and talk things out.
• Shu likes Aya, but resolves her feelings and gets past them, becomes friends, and helps Aya & Mitsuki sit down and talk things out.

Either way, I look forward to seeing what the author does with her.



thanks for the TL

Ive never been so early before. Thank you for the translation!

 

[Kitsune_115]

Wondering where this story is gonna take us moving foward... it just keeps introducing characters and it is A BIT discouraging that is always just 4-5 pages long per chapter ngl.

Thanks for the translation it was pretty fast.

If Aya discovering Nü Metal isn't a metaphor for the current state of her relationship, I don't know what is

 

[noobplant]

I got injured a while back

Maybe instead of Shu liking Aya, its more like seeing them together reminds her of her own failed yuri? Or Shu might just be closeted. Idk.

Yes Aya-chan heal the world with Rock🧑‍🎤😂

 

[luigiymario2]

Lol, if you're gonna share a Korn song make sure not to put it straight to anyone's ear! That's a sure way to deafen someone

 

[Niflheim_]

Please be emo Narita and not a bullet train ticket to not green yuri

 

[MsW0lf]

Ugh, ya know what? Maybe a tinge of Blue would do these stoopid lesbians some good! Learn to grow up, not take each other for granted, and COMMUNICATE for once! 😤

You know what you call an avoidant who is in a relationship with another avoidant? A breakup!

 

[skeletom_]

Korn lmao

Maybe this will make them grow up ? I mean, they are still young, and growing up together is one of the challenges faced by a couple who met when they were young

 

[Darris]

What an obnoxious character.

 

[PsychoWar]

Korn AND yuri!?!?

 

[smolbro]

I love the music taste in this manga

 

[MonstaMaps]

I just cant imagine a Japanese person blasting out loud the lyrics "say fuck that, fuck that, fuck that."

Korn does generate a certain emotional reaction, that's for sure lol. It's been a looooong time since I listened to a song from them, though. So Shu-chan has an injury that is causing consistent pain, sort of similar to the constant "pain" she's been feeling whenever Aya pops up. She's such a mysterious character; it's nice unraveling something new, while we continue developing Aya's troubles and worries.

The question of what Shu-chan actually feels reminds me of "My Dress Up Darling," when everyone wondered whether Akira liked Marin or hated her. That "mystery" was also fun and had its own unique conclusion. The personalities almost match up perfectly, too, with Akira being Shu and Marin being Aya, with their artistic bf/gf waiting on the side.

I think Aya spending some time away is fine for now. Sometimes you do need time to process and think about the things bothering you, and clearly, Mitsuki's avoidance and potential trauma about the band situation is shaking her a bit. In that way, "painkiller" could be referring to both the music joke but also what Aya's currently doing, hanging out with friends and thinking to herself. As always, I'm enjoying the piecing together of the bigger picture. Everything is mostly in place now, except for the ultimate role Shu-chan plays.
