[Kurshir]

uh oh
UH OH
So the mom IS the co conspirator in whatever the hell the daughter is cooking up. God the dad's poor family is going to get so much shit throwing at them in the upcoming chapters

 

[dafzetxd]

holy shit this mother and daugther is a huge red flag

 

[Kr1tSt4b]

Thanks for the translation! Also give me some mom action as well.

 

[velatic]

Like mother like daughter

 

[KoriCongo]

I know I should be focused on the dubious duo of mother and daughter, but I can't get over how HUGE Chika's phone is.
Does this take place in 2016? Are phablets still in vogue in Japan?

Red flag oyakodon⁉️

 

[NeloDante]

Even me with an Oyakodon fetish, I would nope real damn hard from this situation and never see them both ever again. A fetish does not always translate well into reality.

 

[CrimsonWarden]

Yup. The suspense vibe is building up.
We basically have the story of a weary young mother and a peculiar daughter with an oblivious step-father

 

[sevenMeru]

truly a Bruh moment family

 

[Shrimperor]

run
RUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

 

[Heamoanne]

So, maaaybe mother and daughter are trying to recreate whatever the hell was their old lives? I mean, mother said that she was in seventh heaven and daughter clearly has some ideas about being a mother.

Anyway, my dude is going to have a trip.

 

[LordTrollbias]

My guy doesn't know it yet but he needs to LEAVE ASAP.

So I'm guessing the mom can't bear any more kids and so she's raised the daughter to fulfill that ambition in her stead and the poor guy is their means of doing it.

 

[Lurking-around]

Wait so what happened to the mom's previous husband ? Did he die ? Is it mentioned before ?

 

[Hijinx]

We spent so much time on Touko that we overlooked the possibility of the mom also being a little touched in the head.

 

[thehypesreal]

Wait so what happened to the mom's previous husband ? Did he die ? Is it mentioned before ?

First chapter says he died but not how

 

[talihem]

Does saying ominous things and giving people the creeps run in the family?

 

[princedizzytoon]

 

[zomba]

Putting my imaginary money on the line here:
The mother was impregnated by her much older step father. She might've even been in a three way relationship with her stepfather as the only male, and her own mother as the second female.
The step father passed at some point, and now she's trying to recreate the same dynamic with her husband and daughter.
Something that wouldn't have been possible if she had a son.

 

[Jexzer]

I know that it's a story and the suspension of disbelief demands that the plot continues. But there's nothing really tying him to the mother and daughter, he could simply say 'no' and walk away if things get too weird.
