They're practically married now, heh.

On another note, Suu-chan can be rather scatterbrained in social situations which is 0-mega cute.

After showing up in manga and anime for all these years, we finally get taught what they're about.

I've read enough manga to know those Papico bottles are one of the biggest flags you can possibly raise in a seishun romance.

Maiko is considered as children yet they have to entertain old men huh.... well, I know they are art performers and not escorts in that sense, but smh

Wow, papico is serious stuff, might as well be a life pledge.

@Esasaeriri I understand your point and their profession has a... unfortunate past, to say the least, but i think the "children" status in this particular case is because the Maiko is the infant stage of the Geiko so for this event they are benefited because of the desire for their protection and well being.

Lol, seriously? So many people have just now learned that double papico are shared with loved ones, and not just like that? Jokes aside, I liked the chapter, I was already starting to worry that Kiyo became a side character without emotion.

@Suben Yeah, just like holding hands lol

@Esasaeriri Middle school is compulsory education. Can maiko really be that young in modern times? They would still need to be receiving full middle school education in addition to the maiko one. Since high school isn't obligatory, it makes sense a youth could simply not go to high school and instead become a maiko full-time. Though that being said, I'm obviously no expert on the Japanese education system.

I think this is the first time I've seen this food in manga; the other comments saying they see it a lot makes me feel I haven't read enough manga. 😷

@oichifan39 To be honest, it's pretty strange. Japanese kids and teens are very fond of this stuff, which is why it constantly appears in manga and anime, especially as a childhood flashback.
