The poor cinnamon roll! Yes, it was a massively heteronormative assumption, but he thought he'd found someone he could use as a role model... now he's just embarrassed beyond belief!

In all this, people seem to have missed an extremely point revealed in the last page of this chapter

-> Sakuma has a deep voice

My mind can now only imagine her with Keiko Kubota's singing voice.

Who?

Anyway, maybe she could be voiced by Romi Park if there was an anime?

Edit:

This page, in particular, kills me every time.

I didn't understand that until now, and even then I had to read it multiple times lol

I just noticed that Wako's bunny-eared manager is named Yamaguchi Gumi. Ikeda-sensei really went for it with that character. An entire Rumiko Takahashi series's worth of weird, bad jokes rolled up into a single character.

Not sure if just a lame joke or if you genuinely do not know and can't be bothered to make a google search, but in either case, sacrilege.

Not to get my hopes up too much, but I swear to god after years of saying Sasameki Koto was one of the few works to really appeal to me as a butch (trans) woman, if Ikeda gives me a gay trans woman in a manga with a really healthy sapphic age gap couple I will buy him several hundred dollars worth of alcohol if he wanted.

Tbh with regards to Kita I don't even see the whole 'mistaken as a stalker' thing as negative, like, yeah they pushed boundaries a bit with how they returned that umbrella, but like awkward possibly trans girl with no one to really talk to about it suddenly sees someone they think Gots What They Want I can kinda get suspend my disbelief enough to not mind it at all.

Oh no, poor Wanko, she feels so bad about it :( That's okay girl, Sakuma isn't hurt and she isn't mad at you.

Oof it is really true though. Life and happiness can be so fragile. One minute you are living your happiest life and then you are in tears, blaming yourself and asking what if.

I feel bad for her. Im not 100% clear on what happened- did the mat whip up somehow on the other end when she let go and hit sakuma in the face and rip her glassess off?

also, the awkward behaviour makes the misunderstanding a lot more embarrassing

Yep. At least that is what I got too.

I really don't get how whatever this is whips into someone's face, but, ya, seems to be what happened. Especially after she told her to "hold down that side".

Those glasses costed a pretty penny, Wanko's going to have to do the unthinkable to pay for them...

(gasp) Actually land a role?

From what I can tell, the intended way was to unroll it down the railing gently, but Wanko, being too excited over the prospect of ice-cream, pushed it out at full force, causing Sakuma to get whipped at the other end. Trying to sort out any lengthy piece of fabric can be deadly without proper coordination.

Easy tiger, she only just started paying rent ;-)

I can already see this causing another horrible misunderstanding...

Easy tiger...

Worse... she's going to have to... work in retail.

Still better than in customer support.

Well accidents happen, at least there wasn't anger and instead they were able to handle it.

Wow, Wanko is way more mature then me. I'm the kinda person that if I accidentally hurt someone will say stuff like "Oh that didn't hurt" or "stop being a baby" you know anything outside of "I'm Sorry"

...."I'm sorry your such a panzy"

You are a shit person. Nothing more to say than that.

Definitely not overboard at all. Chill.

I mean, it's not really wrong, though... Maybe if they had left it at the first paragraph, but that ""I'm sorry your such a panzy"" bit essentially accusing the victim sounds a lot like hurting them might not be an accident soon.
