I kind of want to pick up the WN, but not much time to read lately.

The manga is pretty great so far. Given how long the WN, I'm a bit afraid they will both do regrettable stuff. Let's see how it goes!

They are both awful
I love them

I'm reading the novel cause I'm impatient, not super far in 16 out of 115 or so chapters, here's my spoilered impression, no plot spoilers:
Omg they're both sooooooo toxic. I'm enjoying it, but damn, this is some crazy shit. Neither is doing any explicitly bad things, but their attitudes are some of the absolute worst I've read.

honestly this spoiler excited me LOL i'm glad it might be going down this path

Oh the sweet agony of these girls.

guys I have a feeling that she might be gay

guys I have a feeling that she might be gay

Hmm, I don't know. I think she's not. She keeps going on dates with guys after all.

It's ironic that their entire drama / issue right now could easily be solved if Kanata wasn't a giant coward.

Like if she would have just told Yui she not only didn't like that guy, that the only reason she pushed her away in the first place was because she knew she had just been with another woman well then that basically would have not put these two together but at least put them in the right direction? But I guess we're going to get a Aquarian date out of the drama got to have that Yuri staple right

Yui dropped a You’re not my type on her at the end of the last chapter. I can’t really blame Kanata for trying to get some distance after that.

Honestly, moving out is a good idea. They’re too much up in each others’ business right now.

NINOMAE INA?

Ok So, Kanata called her disgusting not because she kissed her right after vomiting, or because a woman kissed her but it was because she could smell another woman on her. Got it

So I just read the entire novel yesterday.
It's way longer than I had expected, I goes all they way into their adult life after university. Hard to imagine the manga will go that far.

Also, IT'S THAT THE COSMIC PRINCESS KAGUYA OCTOPUS????

Wow, Bocchi has already faded from the public consciousness heheh

Thank you for the translation of this series. I'm so curious to see how much of it will be adapted, the college arc is cute and a bit angsty, whereas the adult arc, for me at least, takes the cake with Kanta's narration, Yui as a whole is a bit more personable and we get some new side characters. I really hope at least some of it gets adapted since it would be a bit disappointing to focus only on the college arc.

Nothing gets resolved in the college arc so I don't see why they would end it there. Unless they wholesale change the ending.

this was so captivating

THAT TEXT WAS ONLY A VOLUME EXTRA????

Can I ask where can I read the novel? Thanks in advance

I assume this is MTL, given the sheer volume of translations, and "Most of these are still ongoing, new episodes will be translated and uploaded as soon as possible, usually same day or next."
