I hope there are more scenes like the pajama party in the future. That's what I loved the most in previous chapters, character interactions about their dreams and how they're progressing.

In another topic (about the new character) I understand that it probably will run into the tropes, but I'd also hope for Teshima to not be jumbled inside of the already-too-much love triangle... Probably a hollow hope.

I find it really weird that Fuu was okay with a Uehara in the club in the previous chapter and then dreading being with him in the same club this chapter. Was there a sudden change in her character?
I think she was okay with it just in front of niina (because she wa fan girling) but deep down she didn't want it

It'd be a nice character development if the new girl came to really love MC's comic, more so than everyone else's (and not fall in love with him and become ANOTHER love interest). :meguu:

Damn, Niina took all the height and boobage and left nothing for the other heroines.

please, author, don't make this a fucking harem. this unnecessary love triangle is enough... don't fool me with this "I don't need a man" trope, only for the MC to win her heart by "being generous"

it's really cool that Niina's friends are talking about their dreams without worrying about drama and judgment.
(in most manga, the dramas would be easily resolved with a simple conversation like this)

It's like they're closer to you than us or something
Girl. You were quite literally just using her ass as a headrest/pillow a moment ago. I dunno how much closer you wanna be without adding a tag or two to this story

I suspect the "guys are fine" line was a mistranslation. She was likely saying "we don't need guys". The original line was probably something like "otoko wa ii", which can mean either depending on context. Obviously the latter in this case.
it was 「男は大丈夫です」
I went with fine/okay because I didn't know what was going to happen this chapter.
but it's also used to deny wanting a bag with your purchase at convenience stores sooo 「いえ、大丈夫です」

New girl makes a bit more sense when she doesn't want guys around while she's drawing BL. Still mad disrespect tho.

New girls can only be little gremlins because Niina has a monopoly on the boobs

Out of the four of them, about one and a half are proficient in human interaction.

She has friends? I mean, it's not like it's news, but they don't really appear.

Also, real friends. Even if it took her a while to talk about her manga aspirations, they certainly passed the vibe check.

If it's not a memorable Japanese name or a manga that I really really like, then it's very hard for me to remember the Japanese names loll

English names are lot easier to remember for me
I'd always argue for English names. This is primarily an English language website. If there's an English title, it just makes sense to use that with an English translation.

The new girl is already lowerring my interest in the series. I can see a future with our protagonist being abused for the crime of being a guy while the heroines are worshipped as goddesses. Then the question is if she'll join the harem later.

Friend A might want to reevaluate her future. If continuing her parents store and expanding it is the dream she should go to business school, not cooking school. She'll need to know how to run a business more than knowing how to cook a meal.
I think going for both is better because she obviously wants to cook and run the restaurant so going for both is the ideal option

Lol Niina is so smug showing off Ren-chan

More characters is good, means the series is probably doing well that they're expanding the cast. Now it seems they'll spend more of their time at school in the manga club.

At least right now I still think this is at most a love triangle.

ah, yeah. Because you add a new girl, she must come with the trope "I don't want a guy in the group, girl only is better".

so we retcon when she said that guy are fine at the end of the previous chapter ? wtf :lul:

Ah, because we really need this lame cliche with an obvious past on why she want to stay with girl only... Damn, we can't escape this :meguu: .
Author, you can do better to make her friend with Uehara later. Like, why make it a passive-agressive relationship that'll explode later.

At least, the pajama party was the highlight of this chapter. :win:

Thanks for the tl

note here, yes it was a translation mistake, it's fixed now, sorry for the inconvenience
