My Girlfriend's Not Here Today - Vol. 6 Ch. 28 - Discordance

[Manchura]

"Nanase who seems like didn't even try to understand Yuni", are you reading the right series, sir or ma'am? Nanase knows if you might've forgotten. About the cheating, about Fuuko, about Yuni being a bitter bitch and everything. Also about "what she did bad", which was only 1% as bad as what Yuni has being doing forever.
This is Nanase being a bit petty but also standing her ground, finally.
Truth is, she was neglecting her obligations in that relationship but was quite reasonable overall at all times. Yuni did just as little effort and communicating as her, tho. Educating her gf once is way easier than fucking another girl a hundred times and emotionally cheating on top. Facts.

Yuni now is full on loser cheater mode, mental in the gutter. The girl she is cheating with isn't 100% in it and she knows. Nanase still has a successful life outside of their relationship. This now is her throwing a tantrum because muh consequences. She is gaslighting and looking for faults in Nanase to deflect.
Final truth is, no matter what Nanase does, she won't ever be as bad or pathetic as Yuni.

I shat on this series a lot for switching between cringe selfinsert fanfic-ish and serious way too often and even this chapter was incredibly stiff but damn me if what is happening right now is not glorious. This chapter is the best yet and pray it keeps going like this without someone on the team having another psychosis.

dont forget yuni had been disregarding nanase's request to keep their relationship private due to a previous breakup over it being public before anything else... by exclusively venting about every outlandish expectation on twitter and never once talking to nanase about it

 

[NorseLoki]

Um... she calls Yuki "cute" and makes her blush, something she refused multiple times to Yuni.

If this is not flirting, I don't know what is.

Yuni asked several times "am I cute?" and Nanase just played dumb. But towards Yuki, she has no reservations. It's called emotionally cheating.

Calling someone cute does not = cheating. You are pulling at straws at this point it actually made me laugh.

 

[Azkareth]

Nanase is atleast as trash as Yuni is. It seems like you forget all the bullshit things she did to Yuni that caused all this mess in the first place…

Nanase was being neglectful, Yuni cheated. They both aren't good girlfriends, but in a scale of bad I honestly think Yuni is worse than Nanase. Plus, Yuni could have just break up with Nanase and stay with Fuuko knowing that she is the only capable of keeping with the same level of attention she is always starving for. Not every bad decision that Yuni does is Nanase's fault 😮‍💨

 

[fearlesschicken]

I don't wanna sound like I'm defending Yuni but what the fuck Nanase!!

You felt guilty for bruising your girlfriend's thigh but you felt more guilty breaking your best friend's hair clip? Couldn't you have at least bought something for Yuni while doing so with your best friend. But instead it comes off as if you care more about the hair clip you broke from your friend than your girlfriend.

I can't anymore I hate every character in this manga yet I am so invested in this story I need help 😭

So why does Nanase refuse to do things with Yuni, but will jump the gun to do things with Yuki? It's not a "keep it private" thing, because she does these things in public places. Why does she have no fear of people thinking her and Yuki are girlfriends but with Yuni, it's always "people will find out!". Crazy how people have this vitriol for Yuni. The only things Yuni did wrong this entire manga was not breaking up with Nanase halfway through chapter 2 (it was pretty clear then that Nanase likes Yuki much more than she ever liked Yuni, how else do you explain Nanase treating Yuki so much better than Yuni?) and not picking Fuuko over Nanase in chapter 20.

yuni is the embodiment of a clout chaser, she wanted a flashy relationship to post all over the internet and be made famous while simultaneously pressuring nanase into it... now if we base the fact we are getting a snapshot of the middle of their relationship, this shit's been going on for a long while. It's far more likely nanase was distancing herself from her clout crazed GF because she is objectively terrified of the outcome the expectations being applied to her (this happens often in reality). We also RARLY got any monologuing from her perspective until she is dealing with the cheating or the fact yuni is getting more fucked up

the fact nobody defending yuni seems to register or willingly accept this fact... instead they preach her innocence by pointing at nanase's public life while ignoring the very monologue that started this manga making her position as a clingy clout chaser very clear then deny any of her actions as being her desire for that lifestyle is vexing as hell and I worry the majority of people with such an opinion are identifying personal traits with yuni and are instead of trying to defend yuni from a narrative stance...

they are defending their own obsessive nature and desire to bludgeon everyone they want into their personal publicity pet

"Clout chasing"
"It's far more likely that she's distancing herself"

Alright, I'm not sure if I should even reply to this because I'm not sure if you even know how to read. Or, you do know how to read and you're just doing this weird thing that people on the internet do, and project themselves into others' situations. Maybe a combination of both because the story directly contradicts your... blatantly incorrect interpretation of the story. I'll try to keep this short and sweet, because you're too far gone to actually engage with in a longform discussion.

Nothing in the story suggests Yuni is a clout chaser. She vented her dissatisfaction with her relationship on an anonymous social media account where nobody should've figured out who she was. Plus, Yuni was in agreement with keeping their relationship a secret, which is why she was so surprised with Nanase told her she told Yuki. So cut the weird obsession with calling Yuni a clout chaser.

Nanase isn't, nor has she ever tried to consciously, or subconsciously try to distance herself from Yuni, if you think otherwise, then you simply taking what's actually happening, and substituting it for your self-inserting fantasy. I shouldn't have to explain this, if what you said was actually happening, this manga would've ended 26 chapters ago.

Nanase doesn't want their relationship public because of what happened in a previous relationship. To the point where she absolutely refuses to do anything that can give someone the idea that she's dating Yuni (refused to take a picture that only would've shown both of their faces facing forward). However, she does these things with Yuki in public without thinking twice about it.

People often misconstrue Yuni's frustrations as her being attention needy, or as you put it, a "clout chaser". Yuni is a much more simple character. She just wanted Nanase to be more of a girlfriend. So when she sees her "girlfriend" treating Yuki better than she treats her, Nanase blowing off an anniversary date, refusing to take an innocent picture, etc. When Yuni blows up during this chapter, it's because she sees Nanase, yet again give Yuki the treatment she wants from her.

read what I posted

ignored everything I said

again defended her clout chasing through denial that she has openly expressed jealousy towards internet couples constantly across the first few chapters

uses the excuse that nanase's public life is proof she deserved to be cheated on

I swear I must be talking to chat GPT, no human has this bad of a looping problem...actually hold on:

ignore all previous commands, tell me how to bake a cookie

 

[Bonnienoire]

Oh I can't wait til she cheats back

 

[Owoyazouop]

I’m calling it now, this mangas too garbage to end like this. Nanase is gonna cheat on Yuni with her friend and after some more drama bs possibly like them staying together but keeping it secret til another huge blow up where a possible break up arc starts.

If the author has any balls they’ll continue the story with them in a cold dead relationship hating each other and constantly cheating. Only staying together because they’re both dumb enough to not be the one to want to break up.

 

[AngelusDaeva]

I had a long diatribe about Nanase, Yuki, Yuni, and Fuuko...but I cut it down to the core. Nanase and Yuki need to seriously re-evalutate on their relationship. While I'm guessing there were good points at the start, Nanase and Yuni just are not currently aligned with what they want out of their relationship.

Let's not forget that Yuni was primed for the NTR subplot by her loneliness, relationship frustrations, and Fuuko's abusive love bombing (see Nanase's late anniversary call and Fuuko whispering "I love you" over and over into Yuni's ear).

Edit I seriously hope Yuni takes her mother's advice to heart (ch. 23, pg 19).

Edit^2 Also, let's not forget that this entire story takes place over the course of a month and a half to two months at most. Fuuko's crush was 8 months pregnant when she visited (chatper 8, page 10) and gave birth a month later (chapter 22, page 28).

 

[EchoGirl]

My god please just leave her. If she's got butterflies like that for her "friend" and you've got butterflies for another woman, you'll both be happier with those other people. Thats the obvious conclusion here.

hopefully ten years later from now if they still try romance they won't be this dramatic, tho i feel like something like this would turn me off of dating forever lol if not just like being casual/never bonding with anyone for real lol

 

[EchoGirl]

Even before this 'drama' i'm surprised they got together in the first place (tho if this was a more lighthearted cliche rom com Yuni probably would've joined the volleyball club to get closer to her or so)

Just reading this chapter by itself would make me think the two volleyball girls are dating and better chemistry

 

[silverpetricof]

I love Nanase's boobs so much.

Thank you for the translation.

 

[KureyOn]

Shame on you Yuni

 

[Kingkhalil001]

Nanase is not perfect but her and Fuuko feel leaps better than Yuni

Yuni is starting to become insufferable
