Just go by 1000¥ = $10USD

The yen is very weak right now, so $60 after taxes for two larges and two orders of poppers is pretty standard around these parts even if delivery isn't included. Although... around these parts a large is much bigger. And theirs looks a bit like frozen pizza, but we'll never know if this is pizza heresy unless we go have some ourselves!

Leftover pizza the day after is one of the sadest tastes known to mankind.

Cute chapter and then that last panel left me laughing lol.

140 yen to the dollar, when the historical average of recent decades is maybe 80-120 yen to the dollar. But that's mostly relevant if you're importing/exporting to Japan. For a pizza store paying Japanese rent, Japanese labor, and mostly Japanese ingredients, it's more sensible to use a fairly standard conversion rate -- even better to compare Japanese prices to Japanese incomes. Just because the yen falls from 100 per dollar to 140 per dollar doesn't mean everything in Japan got 40% more expensive.

Pop it in the microwaves at medium for a coupleaminutes. And like magic , it's new again
(and with a possible addition of salmonella)

Also: $40 for a large pizza? And this is the cheap place?

Remember with yen you have to take off two zeroes, so it’s actually less than five bucks American which is really cheap for a whole pizza. Especially one as big as they said that was.

Right, so do that off of 3980 and what do you get?

29$ as for today. Convert Yen to Dollar now is more than just removing 2 0. Money change value.

No better present than giving her the birthday she's always wished for. ^_^

If this series has ever had a chapter that justified the Wholesome tag, this one was it. :3

the mark of a truly good pizza is how good it stays as leftovers, particularly refrigetrated. most delivery places cannot hold up, but your local top tier joints always come through, refrigerated or reheated.

this got me all so fluffy and all butterflies so adorable so cute

No drama, just Asako spoiling Miyako on her birthday :3

Miyako continues to make great faces... Both confessions scenes are great, but this one has some very dangerous hand holding

It is fun to find out that Asako's family is just in the know about her sexuality and looks to be completely supportive, she really does seem to be pretty much fully out to people too considering that Hato the mangaka she's an editor for also just knows she's gay.

Also hell yeah on the confession and immediate "hey do you wanna go meet my parents" from Asako.

Asako should have looked at her tea sooner

sooooo comfy. i love how natural the whole realization to confession was. it reflected how Miyako naturally fit in her life already. i hope the story continues well into their relationship!

FIIIIINAAAAAAAAAAAAAALEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS COFESSION!!!

Ugh...oof...ow, I hurt my throat.

This has been one of my favorite yuri series so far! Subtle without too much blandness, sweet without aching teeth, strong without curling my mouth....it's the ultimate meal!

If you mean "tall", always has been.

YES, YES, YES!!! I'm so happy for them <3

Firstly, I acknowledge and even appreciate the misdirection in the first couple of pages, but also you do not fucking do this to a person.

Secondly, my heart is warm and my day has been made. This is the good shit right there. I adore how naturally and organically Asako realized her answer's been under her nose the entire time. I also love the specificity of declaring that she's family but not like her brother. Shout out to MVP sister-in-law, too. The bit with her recognizing Miyako is also appreciated.

The confession scene was incredibly fucking sweet, and absolutely gorgeous too. Huge fan.

I will say though, that it's incredibly relieving and refreshing to not have convoluted drama and third wheels and "you don't know what you've got until you've lost it" kinda shit and inject the fluffy goodness right into my veins por favor, but part of me is, like, almost disappointed at how smooth the sailing has been. In a "that's it? just like that?" kind of way. I'm too used to stories having a give-and-take relationship with their readers, stories that just give almost feel like a trap.

But hell, yes, just like that, and I'm a big fan. I also love that it doesn't seem like the story's going to end, which is also cool. Everyone thus far has been very supportive, I'm expecting their parents to be so as well. I'm somehow imagining her mother being an insane fangirl like Hato is. Also now Ruri and Hato please and thank you.

So the most minor of points: the "hates bell peppers" trope. I'm personally not a huge fan of green bell peppers (I like red or yellow ones much better), but they're in lots of dishes that I like, and so I eat them.

Is this an actual Japanese cultural thing about bell peppers specifically, or just a conventional narrative stand-in/shorthand for "food little kids and childish adults won't eat," like broccoli or asparagus in the US?
