I like the mini wiki in the end. I'll probably treat myself with some eel at the end of the month.

Ah, they went to Kawagoe. I thought I recognized the place. I there there myself a few years ago to see the locations from the "Tsuki ga Kirei" anime, and I wound up at the Kashiya Yokocho without even realizing what it was. Fun times!

That deep lore dump in the translator notes was kind of like reading the wiki after finishing a fantasy book.

I bothered this time, but if people want to stay ignorant (or do it themselves) it'll save me the trouble.

I feel like their comment was an approving/good-natured one.

It was. :-)

I love them.

I'm fine with fictional romances. Having one myself would just be a hassle (...).

Felt. It's a pain in the ass when people pity you for it like you've "given up."

Very nice. ^_^

... I guess you can still ship Hatomori x Ruri, but platonically

After 15.5 I really ship them now. But as besties. Maybe, dare I say, fu—
...fun buddies.

Also family members looking at you weird when you say it's not a priority right now (you being in your 20s).

Naw, if anything, 15.5 has only made me ship them harder. Shit might be the titanic, for all I care, I still say full steam ahead.

As an aside, the comedic chemistry between Hatomori and Ruri is absolutely outstanding, and the comedic timing is also impeccable. Good shit.

Ruri would totally be my kamioshi if she existed in real life

18.5 seems a subset of 15.5?

I'm guessing you have to refresh really hard or something, it was uploaded all at once as 15.5 and split later from what I saw

Damn. Ruri is such an attractive person. I need a Ruri in my life.

I'm sorry, but I can't interpret that scene between Ruri and Hatomori as anything BUT a flag.

This scene between Ruri and Hato was probably the author's reaction to (Japanese) readers shipping them, so she gave them food for thought. Imo, she has/had no intention of making a side couple, so she just made them aro.

The fans: "This sign can't stop me because I can't read!"

Finding romance a hassle is not the same as being aro, though. Them being alike like this, as Ruri puts it, is less a sign of this ship not sailing, and more one of them being highly compatible, as they can focus on their jobs as they want to, but also spend their free time together at home in bed without having to worry about the usual romance bits like dates. Old married couple trope style.

Not to mention like, one of the most popular yuri manga of the past couple years, had a legit ace lesbian ending (crescent moon and doughnuts). So it can be seen as either or.

Also if one actually read it, the note wasn't that she's ace. Just that she didn't have the time nor energy while idol girl is like 'yknow I could also go for something easy and lowkey'

It's a side couple flag lmao

It was announced that this manga has been licensed by YenPress:

I'll keep translating it anyway.

If people want to support Yen Press, they can buy it.

Appreciated.

Especially as, no matter how good work they usually do, their chosen translation for the title makes not sense if you've actually read it.

Throwing the title into Google Translate makes it look like they just did a fairly straightforward translation of the title though.

Is that the way a rental listing for a place like that would be worded? The “with Landlord” would seem to be the relevant part here . . .

Ah right, I forgot the actual context for that. Yeah, in that case it is oddly worded for it.

Let a thousand translations bloom!
