Ah yes, I am sure the nurse is used to the supernatural from hearing the moans from the ghosts haunting the infirmary

Bonus points if it's literal lesbian ghosts to be introduced later.

Props to the translators who know it's "Psych" and not "Sike," which is not a word in the first place. The pedant in me is pleased.

What you mean is "sike" isn't the right word for that situation. Sike is an older word, but word it is.

“Sike” is not a modern English word. It may be a slang spelling of “psych,” which is a shortened form of the idiom, “psyched you out.” “Sike” is also a pre-modern spelling for words such as “sick” or “seek,” and a Scottish dialect word for “a small stream.”

But in this context “Sike” is not a recognized English word.

I had a grin on my face for the rest of the chapter because of this.

Looks like everybody so far has recognized it.

Hilarious. I love how you've made a "play on words" with the word "recognized" by referring to one denotation of "recognized" when a completely separate denotation of the word "recognized" was originally intended.

Wit at its finest.

Omg this chapter was soooo cute, love the gym teacher and nurse.

So, everyone including the female teachers are lesbians at this school?

Hibiki has dated boys, so she's either bi or het.

That's not necessarily how it works. You can find out more by researching "compulsive heterosexuality" but the tldr is that most of us start out thinking we're straight because that's the norm society dictates, try it out and find it unsatisfying without quite being able to figure out why, and then one day have a gay revelation and never go back. Girls and women who "date" boys, have one gay encounter, and act like they just saw the rapture is all over yuri manga, and that story structure is not supposed to communicate "bisexual" lol. They're like the black and white clips from infomercials of people trying to do household chores, fucking it up in silly ways, and going "there just has to be a better way!" while looking into the camera.

There's that but it's not like we have any indication that she disliked said dating with boys, so there's nothing wrong with assuming she's bi, doesn't change anything about what's happening in this series.

Hibiki in fact went from dating boys to going out with Kaoru with no angst and then went right back to boys after things didn't work out with her. She seems like a pretty clear bisexual. Same goes for Mariri, who's dated at least one boy but had no trouble initiating things with Mayuyu.

I honestly totally forgot about Hibiki's brief flirtatious friendship with Kaoru. If she's talked about boys again since (decent chance in the over 200 chapters it's been since that little story played out, never would have been able to find it without the tags) then yeah she's probably bi. But she bi because she can be attracted to a girl and also still likes boys, not because she had anything to do with boys in the past, that is an important distinction still. A character's hypothetical future is way more important for defining sexuality than their past.
(And I'm still iffy about Hibiki because I don't remember her ever saying a single positive word about any of her relationships, they seem very unfulfilling for her lol. But then so was her crush on Kaoru. Maybe Hibiki doesn't truly like boys or girls but a secret third thing.)

Hibiki crushes on a boy as recently as chapter 222, and Midori's dialogue implies this is a regular occurrence.

As for her views on her partners, the implication seems to be that Hibiki doesn't have the best taste in boys or girls.

Gah so glad to see this… im always so curious about the adults that have been sprinkled throughout… curious to what they see and what they think… I feel like school nurse and shop assistant in the changing room probably hear the most lol

Also, so cute to see how the trend traveled throughout the school… I’m curious how it went from debate club to Miyoshi though… but I suppose if anyone is going to know anything it’s Miyoshi lol

Probably is a bit strong. I don't think the proportion of university students in dorms reaches 50%.

That's gonna vary depending on where you go and what country you're in. I'm pretty sure in Japan some schools literally require all freshmen to start out in the dorms.
