I don't get it, what's Natsu's problem?
Like superstorm said, kids being kids.
And we also saw that he only let his mom and Yuuto carry him, even when he was just a baby. So he always liked his uncle a lot and is jealous that the uncle he loves so much, gets along more with his dad than with him, even though both look the same (Natsu and Kai.) So it's just a kid wanting attention.
Why he never warmed up to his own dad, though, that's a good question.

I'm happy they are all happy and that Class Pres won. They even have a child now! I'd love to see more of the wholesome family stories of them all (without the grandparents, though.)

This manga did a great job not glorifying the menhera. Really loved it and superstorm's translation, I bet made it more enjoyable.
Thanks for bringing this to us @superstorm ! <3

I mean yeah, great story. Definitely an 8.9/10. If there were more chapters to flesh out the ending a bit more and see the relationship between Yuuto and Bucho (prez) blossom more than just a single phone call and a reference to them having a kid, it'd be one of the greatest. But I'm happy with this, no doubt.

Hello, everyone! I've returned for a Twitter short/extra!

Of course, I'm going to ask you to buy the volumes (Volume 1, Volume 2). It's my only way of repentance after scanlating this entire series into English.

On to the notes:
  • The title is as Tetsukazu-sensei wrote it. "Nagano Family" removes confusion between Kai and Yuuto's families, as they are both have "Konatsu" as last name.
  • (p. 2) It's a tradition in many East Asian cultures to give money to nieces and nephews when the new year rolls in. This gift is called otoshidama (おとしだま;お年玉), and it's wrapped in a white (red, in China and other Chinese cultures) envelope called the otoshidama-bukuro (おとしだまぶくろ;お年玉袋).
  • (p. 2) Yuuto did not age well... What happened to his hair...
  • (p. 3) Tooru refers to herself in third person. This is a normal child thing.
  • (p. 3) Tooru being in 1st grade makes her 6–7 years old, Natsu being in 3rd grade makes him 8–9 years old.
  • Class Prez and Yuuto baby confirmed??? We really won.

I just checked, and the Pixiv Comic version adds official Furigana for Class Prez, which is... drumroll... "Takigawa"! My gamble was spot on! I also realized I never went deep into the names of the characters. Here's a handy-dandy graphic showing their translated names, offical readings, and their meanings. This is a rom-com, so some of these are actually jokes in and of themselves, and some have some deeper meaning.

  • Yuuto means "kind person". In this case, to a fault. Chapter 4 monopolized on this by adding a name joke.
  • Kai means "world"; it's the "kai" part in "sekai" (世界). The story revolves around him, and so do the lives of three people, so the name is fitting.
  • Natsu and Tooru have seasons in their names. Usually, this means they were born in that season.
  • Akira's family name is "Ebiguchi" and I swear I'm not making that up, nor am I making up the fact that her family name is literally "shrimp mouth".

Also noting here for the record; I won't be adding volume numbers to the chapters. They don't use the volume art (which is another reason why you should buy it!!! It has improved art!!!) and I don't plan on re-cleaning all those pages. Unless I'm required to by site policy or something; I don't really mind either way.

P.S. Minor wording was changed in the final chapter (Ch. 30) post-publish. I updated the chapter; have a look when you can.

That's it from me for now. I'll go back to working on more wholesome romance manga now... See you around!
Congrats on finishing the translation for this series. Your notes are great. Thanks for sharing.

Shion and Kai are really making it, good that Kai doesn't make the same mistake as his mother, no favouring of siblings.

Yuuto and Enmi having a kid finally after 8 years, guess they wait till they finish university with finding a stable job, about time because Yuuto got grey strands of hair...

Shame we didn't had Akira in the final chapter after all story also revolved around her.
Even making her visit with Yuuto and both Shion with Kai seeing her recovery, forgiving her actions she was made to do thanks to her mother, after asking them for forgiveness... maybe even accompanied with a compassionate boyfriend who keeps her in check if she would get out of the line...

Thanks for scanlation till the very end!
