What is this chapter even about. I don't get it.

awkwardness...

The chapter title makes me think this is the last chapter.

If bot-run scraper sites don't get the updated versions, good. Literal leeches like that don't deserve other people's hard work to turn around and make a profit off of through unaware casual (or willfully ignorant) readers. I've heard some groups even purposefully release a rough draft early to get collected by bots with a note attached telling readers that they're looking at the shitty early version from a bad stealing site and telling them to either use Mangadex or their own scanlation site if they want to see the real deal and support the actual people behind their favorite series.

they're both stoned

 

[trilling]

He's overthinking the issue making both to believe they're compromising. Though both of them just wants to have fun with each other. Awkward.

I think the author's focusing more on setting the atmosphere and flexing their drawing skills. I was gushing over the art the whole chapter.

All the art:

p3 had me thinking how nice shoes could be drawn.

p4 the expressionless pull to safety with the nicest bus I've ever seen in manga (the best part is it's not a truck).

Or the fact that the chapter starts with so much beautiful scenery and when shota-kun making the awkward apology to her on p9, the artist cuts all the scenery completely and it's just blank white. If you review the whole chapter, almost every time the dialogue is important, the artist switches from beautiful, detailed scenery to blank white backgrounds. I'm loving it.

p11, this panel split to show the difference in their heights. Amazing.

All the previous chapters were like this too. Can't believe I'm just noticing...

Edit: The white background thing might be the artist skipping background drawing, but imo, the exchange for better backgrounds on other panels is worth when I'd rather be focused on dialogue in the panels they do it anyway.

Yeah, even though this is extremely slow paced and nothing really substantial has happened so far, it feels like the author just wants us to appreciate all the little subtle details that they put into the art and character interactions instead of focusing on the usual sense of progression that we normally expect from these type of stories. Its the type of manga that you read for the atmosphere and general feeling of warmth that it exudes. Its so beautiful in that respect that the lack of real substance doesn't bother me at all since I'm too busy admiring every damn thing the author puts into the panels.

The pacing and slowness of the story makes me want the main characters to have a platonic relationship. I want them to remain as friends/best friends.

 

[BlackIrelia]

It'd be nice to see more strong platonic relationships in manga between man characters. Its romantic relationships so often and then platonic for side characters. Lets mix it up.

 

[Captaininvictus]

This is a comfy manga

 

[SpriralSoul]

Jasmine Tea, thanks for translating this! Interested in how all of this incoming drama will balance out with the fluff we've gotten.

 

[JaddyZyato]

So comfy...i love this
@Jasmine Tea Thanks for this great manga

Two bird-splats at the same time? What are the odds?!

 

[AWildDUK]

I definitely get why some people are turned off by the way this is paced and structured, but it has a certain dreamy aspect to it that I like a lot.

 

[kdramalover28]
