The Guy She Was Interested in Wasn't a Guy at All - Vol. 2 Ch. 50 - Past and Present Intersect

[pab101]

Thanks for the chapter!

 

[lesseffective]

I'm glad that the author was able depict that adults can have an amicable breakup in the past and still end up being friends in the present without things being awkward.

We continue to see why uncle is the best character. Came here for yuri, left with uncle

 

[wlftchtr82]

There's a good chance her uncle is just the after-school hangout, and she spends every dinner/night with her folks. If there's nothing interesting there we won't see them until later though.

If that was the case he wouldn’t have given up on going to the US with his gf when the relationship was going smoothly.
He had to stay precisely because there wasn’t anyone else to raise Mitsuki (a.k.a her parents are gone). You can love your nieces, nephews, younger siblings and etc a whole lot, but you don’t drop the chance to live your own life if it’s not something absolutely necessary — you could always visit them and when this isn’t possible, just keep in touch online (it all happened in 2013, so it was an option).

Chapter 8 heavily implies she does in fact live with her parents and does not live with Uncle Joe.

Because otherwise she lives alone which wouldn't make sense when Joe would obviously let her live with him.

Except her bedroom is upstairs, above the shop.

Are you referring to the line "I'm home...not like anyone cares..."?
Because that line isn't referring to neglection at home. The original line「ただいま〜…っと」has no such implication. It's just her saying "I'm home" with an added sentence-ending particle indicating that shes having a monologue.

Because that line isn't refering to neglection at home. The original line「ただいま〜…っと」has no such implication. It's just her saying "I'm home" with an added sentence-ending particle indicating that shes having a monologue.

So the likely explanation is that she said "I'm home" to an empty place because Joe was still at work.

 

[anideki]

Based uncle.

 

[Evangelear]

Yeah, the first page of chapter 8 when she comes home she makes it seem like no one cares if she is there or not(though could be normal teenage "no one cares" thoughts), which wouldnt make sense if its Joe's since she knows he cares.

So she does at least live with her parents.

But didn't Joe "try his hardest to not listen in" when Aya broke into her house in chapter 38? So I thought she lives with him?

 

[alacaelum]

At this point... he is only uncle in name, he is completely her father.

I thought that her parents were dead, but if what some people said here tracks, her parents are alive but don't seem present, which by itself is bad enough but I hope it doesn't go beyond that.

But even then... by all the flashbacks we had... Joe raised her, all the scenes show him being present but no one else there.

All things considered, Kanna seems to not want to sour things with our sweet brats, that by itself shows that she is doing that because she is thinking of Mitsukiis future... but she did leave that pinless grenade with Joe XD.

 

[AccForManga]

Yeah, okay, seems I was wrong.

The translated "i'm home" line just felt more than what it was meant to be ig, sorry.

 

[alejandor]

So Kanna's plan is to lure Mitsuki to stay for a while with her and so get the uncle in tow.

 

[DatOneGuy]

Kanna isn't trying to lure Mitsuki to LA, she's trying to lure Joe

 

[Thrembs]

History repeat itself plz don’t go.

 

[luigiymario2]

Sad... ;_;

 

[rckvnka]

Like I said, I would also choose Mitsuki,
Plus, I really don't understand and don't sympathize at all with this fascination for murrica.
It's a delusion, any musician serious enough will try make success in any place, first at all in his own country.

It's like how weebs want to live and work in Japan, I guess?

 

[NIPHY]

It was their dream, and they could have been a family. 🥲

 

[Rocketn00b3]

Joe is so fucking real every chapter, I can't get enough of this guy
