I think that it's better to call Yuzuko a “smart baka”, than a “smart fool”, because she is the primary complement to the Yui in Yui's rôle as tsukkomi . (Yukari is also something of a baka, though mostly she is quiet and sweet.)

I always wonder if I should keep the japanese or not when doing those. I kept tsukkomi because that's such a specific thing, on the flipside baka is just idiot so I just put idiot.

@DjDrake8—

baka is just idiot

But, in this context, even if we agreed that “baka” always meant idiot, it doesn't just mean idiot, because the baka is the character to whom a tsukkomi as such reacts. (Yu reacts to other characters, but not then typically as a tsukkomi.)

Yuzuko is certainly a goof, but her behavior is driven not by stupidity but by a childlike urge to play and to experiment.

I get what you mean, makes sense when you say it like that. Will keep that in mind might reupload.

 

[Furuishi]

"Smart Idiot" is fine tbh. Seems like a fittingly nonsensical way to sum her up.

Though I think Kei's is meant to be more like "joke target" or "joke magnet" rather than "jokester".

(Thanks for the chapter! I don't mean for the whole comment thread to be nitpicks).

probably true was having trouble finding what this one meant. Original text is イジられがち.
Edit: thank you for pointing out the passive, didn't really look at it that much and was only looking up ijiru as I was going through these after doing the chapter real quick. My bad should have caught it, haven't done a chapter in a while, will fix.

 

[Furuishi]

Yeah, that's "ijiru" (to mess with) in passive form (ijirareru), which means someone else would be doing it to her, rather than her doing it.

aw yeah, now let's close the small 33-chapter gap

not to mention the 4 volumes after that 🙃

 

[REMasher]

Oh!? Thanks for bringing this back!

 

[Mechrast]

Thank you so much! Been really missing Yuyushiki.

Does this mean a whole volume will come up next?
Neat

bruh that is a tall task, especially when exam season is near. I'll try during summer not like there will be much to do. I will say I need a cleaner if I want any sort of consistent schedule with this.
