Kyou no Ashura Meshi - Vol. 2 Ch. 9 - Bodhisattva and Asura

[W-Scarecrow]

Uh the fat fetishists are about to throw a fit 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I'M ABOUT TO THROW A FIT

...Is it cos it's too hard to throw a fat?

 

[Rafalga]

Fatties on suicide watch lol. Good for her. She already had a pretty face (well it is shoujo) so outcome is not really suprising.

Ramen is a dish I was always disappointing in when I’ve done it myself.

 

[gemgem88]

Welp, that was shit

 

[Sarevents]

man, give us a break. that was too fast.

Fitness should be about making oneself more comfortable with their self image and self esteem. I've been exercising regularly for a while now, due to hating how I looked, and to do it for others seems disingenuous. It's not mutually exclusive to partake in fitness for others and yourself, but the benefit is going to be felt only by yourself.

If part of the goal is to be more lovable for others, then I believe it's being done for the wrong reasons, y'know?

With that said, I think a before kiss and after kiss should've happened, to show that Asura loves her, regardless of her size. The chatting her classmates had about her before and after is typical B.S. you'll get, someone's always gonna be talking.

im throwing a fit cuz it makes it seen chubby ppl cant get love or kisses unless they lose weigh "look guys everyone loves her now! her bf kissed her! see you fat fuck lose weigh ppl will like you if u do" if she lost due to
1 health reasons or 2 for herself rather for others "making myself lovable" wich is a very bad reason to do so
nobody would be throwing a fit but she did it literally cuz she wanted to be more lovable when she was already lovable just feels pointless and just an excuse

 

[TaKoCuh]

I'm on the teachers side now this was the worst ending💔💔💔

 

[shiroyosha08]

well,... not bad i guess

 

[pepperonimadness]

One more chapter huh. Gonna miss this one ngl. While it's not perfect in some places, when it hits, it's really good

Dudes it’s bad writing that undercuts the central theme and unique premise. She literally does it to be “more lovable”.

But the framing just kinda undermines her character and journey. What do you mean become more loveable to someone else? She was perfectly loveable before. It was 100% fine for them to portray it as her wanting to lose weight because she feels less stressed and would like to look a different way for herself, to feel more comfortable in her own body.

3) Yes, the character only gained weight due to mental health issues (stress eating), so itd be normal for her to aim to lose weight once her mental healtg recovered. However the issue was the phrasing of it in series seemed like it was her becoming more loveable because she lost weight. No, she was loveable before. She didnt need to lose weight for the author to write her as being more loveable.

Hey, hey. Listen, you probably weren't expecting this to be the case, but the translation was wrong. That's the problem. Don't be mad at the author/creator for this.

What the text actually said was:
"After I met Akira, and he said he loved me, I was able to LOVE MYSELF MORE".

(big text to attract attention, just in case someone else drops by to leave more comments, because this is important)
If you still don't like her diet, fine, but don't get too hung up on the "lovable" dialogue. That's an error.

Good reading, thanks for the translation👍👍🔥
