I think the "my love isn't like their love" line just refers to the friends talking earlier about how much Nanoha loves Chidori lately, on 06. So it's Chidori's inner monologue about how she actually is into girls romantically vs Nanoha just having a more friendly love for Chidori. You know, in Chidori's mind anyway. But hey, we'll see.

The blushing quota was not met in this chapter. I'll overlook it this time.

THE KIND YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY BOUT TOO MUCH BECAUSE YOU KNOW IT'S ALREADY RESOLVED

Give me that delicious past angst with present cute times yesssssssss

This is totally a girl who's confessed to chidori tho, that bag of chocolates which has the NOT FRIEND label on is super girly

The only thing is, I reckon, down the line, this means this girl can pop up at any time in the present if the mangaka wants any DRAMA

The phrasing used in the original is 私の「好き」とみんなの「好き」は違うんだから. Throughout the manga, when Chidori uses "minna" she's usually referring to her friends, so I think your interpretation is likely correct.

I think that she doesn't know who Igarashi is (also that's a surname, if she knew he/her they would have used the first name). Also I think that the chocolate made her realize that she was disappointed because she wished they were from Nanoha.

It's not just the design. Following Japanese conventions, Valentine's Day is the day when girls hand out chocolates, not guys, thereby eliminating the past / wannabe boyfriend theory...

My advice to Chidori is, GO FOR IT!

Edit: I didn't notice that the chocolates weren't from Nanoho. My advice doesn't make sense.

Um, sorry to hear that your sister in law's girlfriend is a cheating slut, I guess. Just not sure this is the right forum to share that kind of stuff on, though.

ch22, pg 10 has a minor error, it was fixed https://yuri-project.net/hana-ni-arashi-ch22/

I think Yoshida-senpai was the girl who gave Chidori the chocolates and that she's similar to the poly girl from AnoKiss who gave flowers to everyone and thats why she says that her love isn't the same as her love.

Oh, it's cute that those two who also confessed on that same day on the last page.

Towards the end of the chapter I was like "eh, reruns...?" cute twist.

And I love the simple effect of page 16.

Yoshida is the girl who's dating Abe. They're mentioned here, they just happened to start dating the same day Chidori and Nanoha did. Igarashi is the one who gave the chocolates to Chidori. She has no relation to Yoshida (as far as we know).

All we know at this point is that Igarashi and Chidori have some sort of history—Chidori was in love with her but felt betrayed and avoided her, and that's why she cut her hair. She didn't confront her until Igarashi gave her the Valentines chocolate, and then she went and returned the chocolate to her.

"I love you!"
"Me too!"

Is there some quirk of Japanese that makes that sound less weird in Japanese or something? Cause it seems to be an extremely common translation but it's also a really strange thing to say.

好き！
私も！

I guess it might be a little too literal, maybe "I love you too" would be better. But the "me too" answer isn't uncommon in English. I've heard people speak like that, and I'm sure I've said that myself, though it can definitely seem awkward when you think about it.

Edit: though now that I think about it, Chidori's awkwardness in answering might make "me too" a more accurate translation in this case.... I'll just give myself the benefit of the doubt and assume that's what I was going for when I wrote this down.

It happens in English but usually only from fairly socially awkward people or when someone is responding to someone saying "I love you" when they're not paying attention or when it totally catches them off-guard. You do have a good point about it not necessarily being out of place in this specific scene but I feel it's far too common in scanlations for it to simply be a matter of people actually frequently saying it in most cases.

I'm by no means an expert in Japanese but a quick Google translate gives "Like!" or "I like!" as the most viable translations for the first one (with "Love!" or "I like it!" being the other valid ones) which would suggest to me it's not quite as straightforward as a a literal translation. An addon I have for Firefox suggests that while "me too!" might be valid as a literal translation it actually misses nuances that may be there in Japanese. It actually seems to be a phrase used in a sort of self-inclusive reflection of whatever it's being used in response to. So while "me too!" would be the literal translation I think that "I love you too" would actually be a more natural translation and would likely be closer to what the author intended.

Thanks for posting the Japanese dialogue. That definitely helped me see where it comes from.

I have taken on a fatal overdose of cuteness. It was nice chatting with you all . . .
