Google translate tells me that Quetzalcoatl is pronounced like "ketsu aru koa toru" in Japanese, which helps me understand why when she started a statement with "Setsu aru" she'd finish it with the rest of the word. Suetzalcoatl, where "suetzal" in this case means "makes sense" lol. So now I'm trying to think of a closer equivalent pun lol. Maybe "Tama-gotcha", lol. "Gotcha" instead of "makes sense", and tamagotchi instead of quetzalcoatl.

Maybe something like "Tezcali-gotcha"? It definitely sounds sillier in English lol

EDIT: On second thought, considering the context of the reply ("They should teach us stuff like this in English, right?"), I don't think Mirai is trying to convey something like "understandable", but more like "that's right". Which means the pun shouldn't be using "gotcha", but instead something like "true" or "for real" instead.

i'm. genuinely flabbergasted that i didn't catch how similar the word is to the rest of the line. the article about this that i lightly skimmed in 30 seconds LIED to me

thanks for leaving a comment about this since i don't think i would have noticed myself otherwise! edited the TL notes to mention this instead. as for the 4kids dubbing i'll leave you to it, i have a natural geographic policy for this kinda stuff. nature is meant to flourish without outside intervention

if you're wondering, that's a bit of a manipulated translation. the two speech bubbles combined are translated literally (and written) like this:

heeko:
英語ってそういうこと教えてくれる説ない？
eigo tte sou iu koto oshiete kureru setsu nai?
"Wouldn't it make sense for stuff like this to be taught in English [class]?"

mirai:
説あるコアトル
setsu aru koatoru
"That would make sense, coatl"

heeko asks if it wouldn't make sense (setsu nai?), mirai says that it makes sense (setsu aru)
i don't think it's exactly a "true" or "for real" but rather a more sinister, third thing

There's something strange about Shouko being large already on page 12, because that kind of implies that that's the default size of the person the power belongs to, instead of making active use of it.

And if I had to guess, it came from Kumi's father, or perhaps another family member.

What the... chrollo lucifer. Hunter X Hunter reference with catch and release ability

Edit: i kinda comment a bit too fast. The author making it obvious with him drawing chrollo

 

[Grabzky]

obvious page 10 reference kinda deal

 

[ThreeWolfMoon]

Heeko's brain expanded along with her body

And the description of it is calling back to Hisoka explaining his Bungee Gum and Texture Surprise

her ability has so many caveats lmfao

 

[roppatsu]

her ability has so many caveats lmfao

still simpler than king crimson

 

[That-Guy]

I see. So if a girl gives you Valentine's choco, and you eat it, you also get your friend's black hole. Quite a holesome chapter.

 

[Miku4L]

her ability has so many caveats lmfao

If it didn’t she’d basically be “a certain manga’s last boss”. It’d still be pretty broken if she can use the abilities herself though.

 

[Shamgarsan]

Her mom’s ability is to grant fine print.

 

[Lunkli]

I sure do wonder why his friend was intending to give him chocolate on Valentine's day. Surely there couldn't be any deeper implications?

Also, possible translation of the Quetzalcoatl joke: "Quite right zalcoatl." or "Quite-zalcoatl right."
