I'm glad that they're having fun.

 

[shemper]

Thank you for your work!

Honestly, Miko's the ray of light that keeps me reading. Thanks for the upload.

Miko is just carrying the plot at this point. Both of them made that promise again but now Shiori is the one that can’t trust.

I guess what has her so shaken is how fast Hinako’s demeanor changed and how it was always just a fake display to get herself killed.

Yup, Shiori must be feeling really frustrated right now. She never intended to keep that promise. She just needed more time. Time someone doesn't want to give her 😏

This will kinda force Shiori to stop being complacent and try to actually understand human feelings.
It’s corny, but the story will probably be around her understanding what it means to be happy…and how it’s not as simple as cheerful smiles.

My theory is that the character dynamics of this manga so far has been running on two parallel layers, the first being a monster wanting to eat a suicidal girl and the second being two gay women being gay. Every development of the story so far works for both of these layers.
Because of that, I think Hinako’s change after the new pledge is on the one hand her trying to put up a happy face to make Shiori eat her. On the other hand she’s also subconsciously enjoying being bound to (and kissed by) Shiori and that made her genuinely happy in part.
For now she doesn’t have to think about which one is her real feeling because the motivations align, when they do deviate some day she’ll have to rethink her relationship with the mermaid and death.

kinda wish a tragic ending, the ending when shiori will actually eat her this story is good when its darkest

 

[Augorhen]

I'm kinda enjoying that this series leaves me with no hope for any character being happy in the end. Thanks for the upload!

 

[MathMols]

Fox the wingwoman?

 

[nyannibalism]

thanks for the translation!

miko certainly has started to care a lot more for shiori than she did before

 

[KZO]

What if she eats her a different way?

I see where you're going. Shiori, mourning Hinako's death all of her long ass life... And wishing for a death that no one can grant her

 

[Shtoops]

Miko pivoting perfectly to being the wingwoman is not exactly what I expected, but it does actually make a lot of sense. And she's quite good at it too. She's gonna have Hinako and Shiori in bed together by the end of the week.

I just binge read the chapters, but the way Miko's character pivoted from the childhood friend love rival (the one destined to fail to the girl on the cover art) trope to the guardian fox trope- with it, in retrospect, having always been the guardian fox trope- is one of the cooler things about this this series.

We also get the parallells with Shiori and Miko where Shiori told Miko that a yokai that killed humans couldn't be redeemed and that it would be better for Miko to be killed, where we now know Shiori probably sees herself this way. Miko sees the parallel to her situation and wants to be the one to help Shiori learn what she doesn't know, much like the monk who forcibly took her in.

I am so happy to see that they are having a good time. Thanks for the translation

 

[Mitsu13]

Currently feeling the same with Hinako. Want to die to meet my parents again. I guess short but happy life is much better than long but sad life.

 

[mindlessBiped]

You'all don't seem to grasp that a feeling can be bittersweet too. Mermaid is simataniously happy that her love is getting better, while simataniously knowing that it brings her closer to death.

Also, you all insane to believe the 'conversations confuse me" girl is able to pick up on fake smiles (which it's not)

 

[yanderecoverl]

Lmao, that was a great chapter. I hope we get to see them in a amusement park soon
