lol

At least Sakurako is aware of herself being a pervert xD

Points for self-awareness

I think Kasumi and Sakurako need a good beta couple to show them how it's done.

I don't think they need it.

"This is probably fine, right...?" The food and snacks are vying with her sense of self-preservation.

Kinda makes me think of Hana from Wataten.

I think they ended up unintentionally showing every other couple in the series how it's done already? Unless we're talking about a different "it" here.

Hey, Yukiko? This is not how you resolve a cliffhanger.

This has to be a fake out from the translators because god damn it I was so ready to see what comes next after that fucking cliffhanger

"Is she your partner?"

"Uhh...."

"First things first, let's make sure this isn't a dream. Let's sleep till tomorrow and see what happens. If the problem doesn't fix itself, we'll try something different."

Kasumi: BASED.

Not sure if you're calling Kasumi based, or if you misread that as Sakurako saying that and adding Kasumi commenting "based" to that.

Just like Yasuda who was based too, lol, it's the natural coolness of lazy people.
The other characters in the manga often commented that supernatural events, which in a normal manga would lead to sexy & fun moments, are wasted on lazy people... so Yasuda turning into a girl didn't lead to squat nuthin as he just said 'oh I'm a girl now hm hm I see' and went back to sleep.

Fans of 2beya had discussions before about Yasuda and Kasumi being twins separated at birth as they were so similar. I thought immediately of that when I read this chapter: someone close to them returning to infancy had the same effect on Kasumi it would have on Yasuda, she decided to just sleep to see if the problem just goes away...... and go away it did! It was the right solution! Score another point for lazy people! XD

That sounds like further confirmation of incoming progress.

Sakurako should just serve Kasumi her desserts using her body as a platter.

Angry Sakurako best Sakurako.

Kasumi fucked around and found out about dessert as a meal.

Got a bit irked and impatient so I read with some of the Raws I’m just glad Kasumi is at least giving their relationship some more serious thought and not just treat it as an afterthought

What's this about a "not even me" line? Who said that when? I'm a bit lost.

Wait what is chapter 71.9 related to. I can't remember the chapter it's from unless it's a chapter form volume 10?

71.9 happens right after Special 3 of Volume 9. See the last page of the special here:

I think Kasumi's shrewdness is in contrast to her laziness, did she do well in school? I would be surprised. We know Sakurako was a, if not the, top student, but she seems to lack street smarts in some areas [and Kasumi in others]. Anyway, when they were playing board games like e-sugoroku [not to be confused with ban-sugoroku, because Sakurako is right that that is a lot like mancala.] where luck is a big deal, Sakurako mentioned that it seemed the less Kasumi cared, the luckier she got. She clearly flashed to her relationship with Sakurako, and not that she didn't care about winning in relationships or care about their relationship, but that she was the "less-interested" as you could never be more invested in it than Sakurako, and she was, objectively, very lucky to be together with her. I think that's a very good part. It seemed to me to be referring to the "least interest" idea about relationships. The person least interested has the control.

So Sakurako and Kasumi's important moment in the train ends with ... a shrug.

Well, if even the author doesn't seem to care, I don't see why I should care either.

They definitely do care. It's a seed that's been planted. Sakurako finally brought it up, Kasumi acknowledged it (internally) and now has some thinking to do.
I expect some change for sure, but it'll still be in the usual chill pace xD

Damn. I know this could be the spark that leads to some actual development later on. But later on could be in a year, or two, or ten...

I'm getting just a little impatient here.

This

Omg, autor really said Slow burn in the slowest way possible. I mean if One Piece it's finally reaching it final arc, this manga finally its finally acknowledging feelings.

But glad I'm young and jobless to see a development in 3 years.
