thank you for the hard work TLing and coming back to dump all the chapters so we could have closure

You think she will become an alcoholic too once she hits 40? seems like the author's kink

That was sweet. Very energetic. No time for subtlety or drama and only the simplest of character arcs. But it made it to the finish line which honestly most of the these series can't boast. There's a lot I would've liked fleshed out. I easily think we could've at least gotten a good half a dozen chapters out of meeting the parents (I also really don't understand how a college student in Japan that was either 19 or 20 throughout the main story progressed that fast including living with the man before actually dating). It was a sweet read that had me hooked with the batch release (thank you); I just wish it was fleshed out.

Ah, so this was finished outside of MD. Okay. Thank for bringing it back.
About this series...well, it's one of those which have a great premise in oneshot, but get totally ruined in serialization. This one in particular was supposed to show how the main couple exchanges "investements" and "returns", in a slowly growing, bittersweet manner. Instead, the serialization almost instantly got bloated with tasteless tropes and annoying sidechars I couldn't care about. That was sad, the series turned generic and lost its uniqueness from the start. I blame it on the editor's poisonous influence, as always. So, when the translation stopped updating here, I didn't really care much.
Now when I read it to the end, I see that nothing changed and on top of that the series presumably got axed. To be expected, well. I hope this will be a lesson to author to never listen bloody editors and do the story on their own. The main couple's relationship got awfully rushed to the point of being unnatural and feeling forced, forget about "slowly and steadily increasing investments", the plotline about dead bro felt out of place, that "big breasts" woman was annoying and so and so on.
Well, I mark this as completed, rate it 4 as in "bad" and hope next time author does better. I really do. Just look at the art. Look at smiling Miran.
Apart from that thank you to translation team and/or those who uploaded the rest here. I'm out
P.S. the pre-serialisation page says there are 9 chapters, but only 2 got translated. Can someone finish it? I'd love to see how it was planned originally
