Mao Marimo - Vol. 4 Ch. 35 - God and living in the village

[Enaero]

Well, thanks genderbenderbb2 for translating it, the closure of finally seeing it through after all these years is kinda nice. Is it hypocritical of Ako to be wary of Jiu cheating, when Mao's already cheated with her? She managed to stay unrepentant garbage through the very end without an ounce of character development, I'm glad the last thing we see is Kagu dunking on her.

@darklight99 well there’s a few I absolutely wouldn’t say there’s plenty, at least as far as manga/manhwa with finished English translations go, (I’m aware in the resent surge in translation of light novel/web novels that fall into this category) the only ones I’m aware of are kashimashi girl meets girl, girl reborn, trans star, and two that are arguable but I personally would count them megu miruku given the ending, and trans Venus which honestly could be considered Henti depending on who you are. So you can hardly blame @dokidoki for thinking that, (if you put aside kashimashi which any gender bender fan should know of, given its even got an anime ), and yes there are a few more currently being translated but there are some people who prefer to wait till a series is over to read maybe doki is one of them(there’s a few that looked like they where going to turn out this way but their translation was dropped or they were cancelled, like bloody beast 9 which was dropped with just a few chapters left because the translation group broke apart, yes I’m bitter about it)

 

[Sopu]

@darklight99 if you look at page 15-17, She obviously looks very flat-chested from how she looked before

 

[Darklight99]

@Sopu Ehh, it wouldn't really make any sense from the story's point of view though. It even has Jiu and Mao have sex after the guardian visit.

 

[Sopu]

@Darklight99 What's wrong with gay sex? But still, I think it was meant to be a joke ending, but Mao did turn back into a boy because of no boobs~ From how she was drawn before, the artist made sure she had breasts with how the clothing was until those last pages.

 

[Darklight99]

@Sopu Nothing wrong with it, but I don't think that it's what happened. None of them making any note of it would be weird. And there's definitely some lining in her shirt at the end. But I do indeed see your point.

I forgot how to add an image.

 

[Darklight99]

@Sopu More like this

 

[Sopu]

@Darklight99 The other ones she is completely flat tho, she is also wearing boyish clothes from what she was starting to wear.

 

[Darklight99]

@Sopu Those clothes aren't boyish by any means. And again, it makes no sense from a story point of view and if it did happen, it would be made clear outright.

 

[Sopu]

@Darklight99 they are boyish, definitely not feminine at all.

 

[Darklight99]

@Sopu I have never seen boys wear shorts which aren't even halfway through their thighs.

 

[Sopu]

@Darklight99 Gon Freecs shorts are short as those, They are boyish because they don't have anything girly about them, I am not saying that that length is worn by boys I'm saying by style is boyish, her whole outfit it boyish not just the shorts.

 

[Darklight99]

@Sopu Gon is a much younger kid, Mao is a high schooler if not a college student considering that there was a time skip. The rest of the outfit barely counts since all of the sisters are also wearing similar stuff. "Boyish clothes for girls" and clothes that boys wear are different.

Spoiler

Funnily enough, this is reminding me of Haganai.

 

[Chichiquitas]

This manga really reminds me of boku girl. Thanks for translating till the end!

 

[Rioz]

did Mao turn back to being a boy or not? I'm confused... it could've just been him crossdressing...

harem end?
