Just a normal palm reading

Agreed U-U

Soo... she doesn't like her big boobs? o.O
I mean--!!!... 'she doesn't find them normal' alrite... >.>;;;;

I suspect there's something wrong with the translation. Well, either that, or there's some kind of joke that I don't get at all.

I was under the impression that Blonde Classmate had realized that Mako says "normal" to mean "love" (in the scene where she gets a lightbulb over her head) and thus asked Mako about her "normal" for Sayaka to actually make her talk about love.

However, the question is "What parts of Sayaka are not normal?" (meaning: what parts you don't love) and the answer is "Her breasts, because they are so firm and soft." This doesn't make sense. Even less so if you consider Blondie's obvious shock and Sayaka's embarrassed reaction.

If the question was "What parts of Sayaka do you find the most normal?" (meaning: you love the most) everything would be much clearer.

that's very smart and NORMAL to do palm reading (a.k.a. handholding) OMFG! this is getting so lewd!

It may be a bit confusing, but that's really how it is in the original.

A possible interpretation is that Shiki (the blonde, her name is mentioned in another one-shot) quickly realized that Mako would say "normal" as a denial, so she instead asked "What's not normal?" as in "What are you willing to admit that you like?".

(Or you can just think that what Mako meant is that Sayaka's boobs aren't normal, they are big).

Ah, this sounds plausible. It's the most likely explanation.

A bit disappointed, I was hoping the h̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶t̶o̶u̶c̶h̶i̶n̶g̶ palm reading turn erotic.

Woah, don't just go around posting links to images tagged insane amounts of sex so lightly!

Sayachii is starting to succumb to the power of yuri :)

(Or you can just think that what Mako meant is that Sayaka's boobs aren't normal, they are big).

Actually, I think it's better read with that interpretation; Mako pulling a twist and pointing out something that's actually not normal - but somewhat outstanding even? ^^; Well, I'll take it.

Then I will censor this for you: Whoohooo~!! :)

^ Lol, great way to remind me to re-read that manga! :)

This is my favorite manga now. But just in a normal way.

She keeps saying her friend is weird, but I see nothing weird about her.

Ah, Just a Normal Manga.

Whew, for a moment I thought someone was going to get shivved.

It's nice to see this again, after such a long time. I am distrubed by the lack of the word "normal" in this chapter, though.

Even other people are noticing now.

The part about how "carnage was avoided" made me think that, actually, violence is surprisingly rare in these manga. (Well, 'surprisingly' if we go by American-European standards, of course.) In a yuri love triangle, you'll practically never find a scene where a girl attacks her rival in love and tries to scratch her face or yank her hair off or something. Japanese people sure are civilized, huh?

Did you notice? This is the very first chapter since the beginning of the manga where the word "normal" is never said.

It’s almost like Yuri is trying to play up the cutesy/sexy/girly factor, and many authors are going to look at fighting as being none of those things.

Also, take a look at the bullying tag if you want to see just how vicious some Yuri works can get.

the class rep made a good save. everything is back to NORMAL.

i want the tall girl to confess first

Murder averted.

And we're back to feeling just normal. :D

Mhm, honey, you look so ... normal ... in that lingerie ...
