Just a brief note on the whole pronoun thing: It's entirely normal for people to switch between "boku" and "ore" depending on whom they're talking to, or even what they're saying. This is especially true in real life, but it happens in manga and anime as well. Translators almost never have to remark on it because it doesn't really matter. But in this case, Stowie is insecure about what pronoun to use, and so I couldn't really get around it.

Anyway, a nightmare of a chapter in general for me to translate. Both the redrawing and the writing. Hoping for smoother sailing in the next volume.

There are two empty speech bubbles on page 20.

Thanks for the chapter!

Chechov's Phimosis

Also so it turns out the woman Aoki was sleeping with really was a cram school teacher then...
I recall it was mentioned that her cram school job was how they became acquainted. But I never made the connection until she showed up, lol.

Lol , one rival who extrovert close to fml got aeroplaned ,only for another girl with same interest as ml and taller and easier to talk than fml to pop up. Classic shoujo development. I like her more than kamoi already
old busted: short kings
new hotness: tall queens

Yeah new girl is peak. i sort of hope she already has a crush and doesn't become a rival. But the misunderstanding as she uses Stowie to progress on her crush nudges Kamoi to action.
