guess i might as well drop a poll about that pikarun/shiny nickname decision to make it easier for anonymous people to decide
https://strawpoll.com/ajnEOJXvxZW

also while we're here, let me get it out of my system:
HIKARUBROS WE'RE SO FUCKING BACK
I prefer if it's kept the same as the source material since there might be references to it that wouldn't make sense if it's localised. Also bonus points for sounding like Pikachu

To be exact, the letter p in Japanese is just the letter h (or occasionally f) with an extra squiggly next to it.

Gotta admit, not a big fan of this chapter. Felt too contrived and clichè, which is a shame considering how original the rest of the series has been so far. Oh well.

He was right though (you won't understand part) and nothing in the chapter really changes it. It's like rich people saying money doesn't matter. They will never understand. The "message" really fell flat. Story should just stick with the wacky hijinks of the gals.

PSA: Edited the chapter to feature Pikarun instead of Shiny; all mentions of his nickname will be Pikarun from now on. TL notes page is a bit different

No problem, glad to be of help. Though I don't see the edit on the live mangadex page yet?
oopsies i may or may not have forgotten to press enter on the edit page

No, he was wrong. Speaking of money, it also doesn't matter much, as long as you aren't poor or in debt. Once you have enough to get by with daily necessities and have basic social standing, money and other privileges like beauty are really mostly meaningless or come with different set of demerits, compared to lofty things like having good friends or family, so gals are completely right in this one. So he doesn't have flashy powers, boohoo, same with everyone in our world and yet people are plenty happy without them.

You sound as naive as the author. But its your life so whatever floats your boat.

I just realized while reading this chapter that Hikaru's and Kuroi's abilities are opposites. Glowing & black hole. Light & dark. And the two gals' powers are opposites as well. Time & space. The symbolism in this manga is amazing.
