Next chapter - more lewd tail fluffing!

Couldn't she just shapeshift herself into losing weight?

Couldn't she just shapeshift herself into losing weight?

Yeah, I was not entirely sure of the physics behind her human body gaining weight. Oh well, maybe a ratio of increased human weight goes back to the fox? Like 5 kg human means 0.5 kg fox increase. Well, it's funny, that's all that really matters.

 

[xanon]

Come on, Goro. You know there's a night time exercise you'll both enjoy!

I will assume that she just has gotten so used to being in human form, that it simply didn't occur to her to use her shapeshifting to modify her weight.

Is it as simple as that? If that's her original (default) human form, then it may be bit hard to maintain the weight.

 

[sarusa]

Oh yeah, interesting TL note. It's very unusual to find proverbs, idioms, etc. that are exactly the same from language to language because those are usually deeply cultural. Like in Japanese, there's 'I'll even accept a cat's paw for help' which means you're so desperate you'll even rely on a cat even though cats are notoriously not helpful. That same phrasing doesn't exist naturally in English.

But on page 5, the two birds one stone thing is exactly the same in Japanese as English (two birds, one rock). Shared ancient hunting frustrations.

 

[HawkGoggles]

Oh no, my fox wife is too sexy for me. How ever will I deal with this? Yoga!

 

[Chuito]

Couldn't she just shapeshift herself into losing weight?

Im guessing conservation of mass and all that physics so it has to go somewhere. Besides she might look skinnier but be more sluggish and less healthy.

Now what I really wanna see is a squishy fox wife. Im sure she can shapeshift into that

 

[Karamru]

I don't know a squishy fox sounds more fluffy

 

[Angry_Panda]

"I might actually want to see that."

No, Goro, you DO actually want to see that. More muffin for the fluffin'.

Thanks for the chapter!

 

[Abhw]

Kogane is casually breaking the fourth wall here

 

[henman]

Throw in some meditation while you're at it

<snip> (two birds, one rock). Shared ancient hunting frustrations.

It's the opposite! Being able to "kill two birds with one stone" implies being lucky, clever, or skillful. So, Goro uses it right in the panel: can I find a clever solution?

Frustration would be killing zero birds with many stones Thanks for TL!
