thanks for the update (Now we need a mod to add Azumanga daioh as a 'shared universe' thing in the related tab XD)

Never had bars like that but a back hip circle sounds difficult tho I’m clumsy and would prolly fall on my butt lol, sucks if it’s a required grading thing versus basic gym stuff

Is the manga releasing this slowly or just a scanlator thing and we're like 100 chapters behind?.

If it's the manga, why?, it never released this slowly before
I heard that the author was just doing it as a hobby so that’s why the releases
Are slow vs him being under pressure for monthly deadlines like other publications? But hey rather get 40+ pages every few months versus like a monthly ch that’s like 8-10 pages tho that might be fitting for Yotsuba too tho I might be biased and fine with anything with her at this point lol

If you look at how she gets off the bar vs her previous position you can infer osaka does a front roll flip off the bar which is something she was having problems with or couldnt do at all earlier in the chapter. It shows that while shes taking her job seriously as a teacher she unknowingly is very competent. It even gives a visual for yotsuba to start flipping around thus teaching her and ironically owning up to the promise to "teacher her anything". This comedic irony and dichotomy in such a tiny detail that could go unnoticed and is just a tiny character moment is what truly makes this peak and the culmination of 30+ years of azuma's hardwork and truly makes yotsuba a goated magnum opus.

how the hell did that space head become a teacher?

I never saw much of Azumanga, but based on her tracksuit and talking about the back hip circle, i assume she'd be a gym teacher, which, no disrespect to coaches, is probably 'easier' to qualify for than a homeroom teacher, plus Ena/Miura is only like a couple years older(?) than yotsuba so i'd assume an elementary school teacher is a bit more of an achievable goal than a high school student

Ah. Nope. Elementary teachers don’t have subject specialization in Japan. I’ve worked at four elementary schools (English paraprofessional) and I don’t think there’s any member of the staff I DIDN’T see in a tracksuit at least once. Administration included.
Also, fun fact, the teachers advance with their students so the first grade teacher is the next year’s second grade teacher. (unless they’re moved to a new school, which happens every 3-to-5-years).
Anyway, she’s calm/even-tempered which is the most important quality.

Ah I see, apparently the fan wiki calls her a gym teacher but while it’s good to stay in shape I think asking to do a back hip circle is asking too much if she as a teacher herself can’t do it so hopefully they don’t get graded on it m

Who you gonna trust? a fan wiki? or me, a tricky wizard from Italian literature?

Got about a third of the way through the chapter, went to work, came home, continued reading, and got completely blindsided.

Why do I feel this strange urge to ship Koiwai and Osaka now?
