Well, it depends where you draw the line between "a bit of fun" and "kinkeh" (also how much you feel something needs to be sexual to be considered a kink) - the foot licking thing went away reasonably quickly, but biting absolutely never stopped, even if it's meaning in their relationship shifted quite a lot.
. . . though I'm honestly not sure that anything they do is really a "kink", since I don't think any of the "kinky" things they do are about sexual pleasure - they're not doing any of them because they feel good, they're doing them for other reasons, and the good feels are a side effect. And the good feels are often not even really sexual . . . The foot licking was about dominance and control, biting started out as dominance and control, and then developed into an assertion of ownership (and acceptance of that ownership, for Sendai) . . . and they both ultimately found as many "non-kinky" ways to express those things as they did "kinky" ways.
Argh . . . I'm really trying not to write a 5000 word essay, particularly given this is the very first chapter of the manga adaptation and none of this is going to be visible for ages . . .
Anyway, yeah, if biting is really a kink in the context of their relationship then they definitely keep it up waaaay longer than they do the foot licking thing, which arguably isn't really a kink either . . .
Hazuki is probably more correct because there's literally no hira/kata-gana(Also, please, mr. translator, could you change Hadzuki into Hazuki, every translation I've seen uses it so this was a bit jarring for me, but granted idk japanese so maybe your take is more accurate? It's just that I've seen Hazuki multiple times in anime and manga and it rolls of the tongue better, so I got used to it, I've looked into some character databases and there are ton of Hazuki's, but almost no Hadzuki's)
No it's Hazuki, and that's explained later in the series that her name is 葉月 "August" since that's her birth month. As such, "Hazuki" would be the correct way to read it.Hazuki is probably more correct because there's literally no hira/kata-gana
for D.
though perhaps it's Hatsuki?
Sadly no. I'm guessing life just got in the way - it did for me, I ended up well behind for a while due to job and other commitments (though I did manage to start catching up after a while), I imagine the same kind of thing happens for anyone doing things like this for the love of it . . .Was wondering why I recognized your name, just caught up to where Angela stopped translating. She was doing such an amazing job. Do you know why she ever stopped?
https://travistranslations.com/novel/65335/story-about-buying-your-classmate-once-a-week/So, a lot of hype for this around here, now I'm really curious about it. Guess I'll have to add it to the reading list.
Does anyone have a link for a translated version of the LN? I'd like to check it out as well.
Thanks in advance to any kind souls who reply (^▽^)
Sorry for butting in but dont worry those two are possessive to each other lol.Since you have read the source material, can you answer a question I have?
Are these 2 only going to have a “relationship” with each other or does it take the annoying route of having one or both of them get together with a different random person?
Similar but heavier. There is more focus on the nature of their relationship and neither of them are honest to themselves about their feelings.This feels oddly familiar...
"The Classmate Who Says "Its Impossible For Two Girls To Fall In Love" Falls Within 100 Days" vibes anyone?
I immediately got that impression as well, from the basic premise. But these two characters here seem to come across with a bit more realism to their personalities, which makes them more engaging for me. Admittedly, this could just be me assigning character traits and motivations to "blank slate" type characters that only have 2 chapters of introduction. But relatable and realistic characters engaging in romantic & lewd antics is something I am looking forward to! Hopefully it's done well and doesn't end up in a mess!This feels oddly familiar...
