I love those information bits at the end. It's funny that there is similar belief among Ainu people when it comes to bathing... but I doubt that their reason is similar.
so what you're telling me, translator, is that Rati, as cute as she is, has some nasty, putrid swamp crotch going on because she probably hasn't taken a bath in months?
Well im not the translator but i dont think so since anyone ought to wash their parts after doing some dirty/necessary activities (urinating, defecating, or things like after cooking/making herbs by bare hands like what has been shown in the manga) pardon me tho if im mistaken. @LysandersTreason

back in those days, you have a bucket of water and a mug to pour the water over your body. Kinda a DIY shower. When I visited India, this was quite regular there as showering uses up a lot of water and there are frequent water shortages in India. Hope that helps.
