To those mentioning plot holes, can you elaborate on that a bit?

Whilst I've only been habitually cynic (I do, in fact, quite enjoy this manga, and am not trying to expect too much from a moé comedy 4-koma), I think the most glaring issue is (Future-)Kako's plan and motive being very very stupid for somebody who's allegedly such a bright scientist.

Michi has shown herself capable of tracking someone down who has fled to the past. (Her world also has apparently toys that can quite accurately predict people many years in the future.) Why would she expect to stay hidden? Especially since as an immortal, no matter how far back she jumps, she'll eventually end up back where she started.

There are many other smaller things that are to be expected from a time travel story written by somebody who is not a massive sci-fi nerd, and even more things unclear because we know next to nothing on how time travel works in the story.

Yeah, I'm a little confused as to when exactly Kako decides to become a science whiz with the capability to create an immortality elixir. She seems like an incredibly normal girl.

The promise is so sweet
Kako san and Mirai san...ಥ⁠‿⁠ಥ

I forgot that was a thing.

Hehe. To be honest I despite arranged marriage plots, and I think its addition was a mistake, far too dark, serious, and oppressive for this story. It makes me happy that the author decided to just write it off, giving Michi her side couple without fuss.

Also, Michi actually isn't written off as well ?! Awesome.

Thank you for the translation. I love how they all share in caring for Nozumi.

Yeah same. She was even buying stuff for her Sakiko throughout the hang out. It's been chill. Nozomi will have a fun aunt.

Very cute chapter. I love how much this chapter showed how much she really loves Kako. Literally their entire shopping trip was her thinking of what Kako would love.

Please stop with the Michi abuse.

God forbid women have hobbies...

DO IT! YOU WANNA KISS THE GIRL! DO EEEEEET!

An almost kiss noice :), we're getting progress

KISS! KISS! KISS!

Presumably it's specifically motivated by otherwise not being able to meat Mirai/Nozomi. She just needs to realize that, I suppose ...

Man they're cute. Nice semi-day out with their daughter while the "roommate aunts" have their own fun. Won't be long before she finishes those kisses. It was especially cute seeing her so proud of her daughter.

If you want to kiss, just kiss

If you want to kiss, just kiss

She should as her future self made it clear she's NOT coming back for her

Feelings conveyed but mission failed.

Just kiss your goddamn wife!

I mean, Tomekichi drew plenty of kisses in their last manga, so I don’t see why we have to chicken out here

it's the character chickening out, not the author. it's a step forward but Kako clearly isn't quite ready yet
