Irie did nothing wrong

No snek? I sleep... 😴

 

[jonnywarlock]

Don't tell me... Irie has stage fright? 🤭

Also, it was hilarious how MC actually jumped on the grenade and volunteered... Only to get shot down by nearly everybody else. Ah... It's OK, dude. It's the thought that counts.

It turns out, Kusunoki is really cool as well. She should play the prince instead of Keisuke. But then there is the cross-dressing issue...
But if its both of them cross-dressing then...
But that would not be fine, or it would be?...

 

[GregoryFregory]

she might be a prick but remember that she put so much hard work writing the script and directing it and thus she has done more work than Kusunoki ever did.

You know this might be the 1st time (maybe) I've seen in a manga where the MC volunteers to help with a play/concert to be denied. Kusunoki will win her over with her genuine kindness & be the light we all know & love. Thanks for the translations.

H- how long you been collecting this?

Lol we got faked out with the "Male MC swoops in to save the festival play" trope haha.

 

[GregoryFregory]

the girl who said Shizuki can't be the replacement because he wouldn't fit Usui's size prolly forgot to consider that Irie herself has quite a huge chest of her own so I totally think it won't go as smooth as we know even if Irie eventually agrees

H- how long you been collecting this?

not that long, i was just bored at work and suddenly it was finished

 

[Gilthwixt]

Damn they really hung a lampshade on the "MC is forced to play the lead in the school play" trope huh. Especially funny timing given the recent episode of Blue Box.

"You know, it never really clicked in my head that it was a shrine until I lit the candles. Didn't even realize once the hair doll was finished."

Thanks for the update

I'm telling you now.

It's gonna end up being the Hebikawa 'snake-bitch' playing the beast somehow with the MC in the cuck-shed watching her kiss Kusunoki during the play. I just know it. Japan loves NTR too much.

For the record, I hope I'm wrong. 😅

EDIT:
I looked at the raws for the rest of this chapter. Now I'm 80-90% sure it's gonna happen... 😭

The rest of this chapter (part 2) ends with Hebikawa (snake-bitch) stumbling upon Kusunoki in the girls bathroom as she tries to convince the director girl to come out of one of the stalls. Easy to predict what happens next. After being convinced to come out , director girl either forces the job onto Hebikawa or (what I'm guessing will happen) Hebikawa volunteers on her own.

To be fair, Hebikawa appears to do some introspection (thinking about past events) about the MC and Kusunoki before she gets to the bathroom that I don't understand (ie. don't feel like translating ), so I might be missing important context.

 

[Destalia125]

It's okay, Shizuki, you were still really cool. At least for a few seconds...

 

[Prince-Z]

Thank you for the TL!

Honestly I would have preferred our MC playing the beast instead, as I don't think there's a good way this development can go elsewhere. Maybe I'll be surprised though. Please don't be snake

Also wdym ask her out?! Maybe some good development!

 

[Dingo777]

Poor MC, hopefully he can still ask her out later. He tried at least.

Swear to god if they bring in snakebitch I’m getting a brick and a ticket to Japan.

 

[LordofLeechers]

It sounds like Kusunoki has passed her glowup after all.

 

[kamikazejoe]

where is hebikawa?
