^ Doesn't Mitsuki simply use watashi?

Usually yes, though she maybe used "ore" when she pretended to be a guy.

But why is she using "ore" in Aya's mind?

It could just be that "I'm going to walk my own path" is a badass line that requires "ore." "Watashi" or "boku" would undercut the badass vibe.

Did Aya only JUST figure out that between her and Mitsuki, they've given their friends the western music bug?

That was my question too. I haven’t re-read the relatively recent chapters to see exactly when and how that “we’re all hanging out together listening to Western music” thing happened, but I did think it was well-established by now.

Maybe Aya has just been so besotted with Mitsuki/stressed about her exams that her wider situational awareness was impaired.

That group hug was so cute!!! ><

I was the ''just wants to be done with high school and move on to a better stage of my life'' type and that's a pretty strong motivation to pass your exams, let me tell you ! I don't know what letter that is (^^)

I don’t think those headlines are supposed to be interpreted as literally said/coming from the person they’re about. ( i.e. Narita isn’t saying “The Good Boy”) I think it’s supposed to be more of an omniscient narrator kind of appellation. And as someone else said, there’s a kind of “no fucks given cool” vibe to phrasing it that way.

Took her long enough indeed... :D

My results are out in two days, and I have been doing everything and anything to forget about it, I get her nervourness

hopefully ill get the same results as aya when i take my college application tests, ^_^

passed

I’m a little annoyed the tariff changes in the US hit at the same time because I was going to not order any more hobby stuff until I see how that was applied. But the plush…

Nice job Mitsuki

squeeee
I live for shit like this. It's funny cause Aya has definitely marked her territory before, but Mitsuki is the first to do so after they started dating.

OFFICIALLY DATING!!

There we go lol

Mitsuki isn't the introvert she used to be, lol ... in front of the whole class :D

Oh no
Ono
Oh no, Ono…

Oh no
Ono
Oh no, Ono…

?

Humiliation ritual, as the kids say.

Truth is, the game was rigged from the start.

Mitsuki growing her hair out really makes it feel like a good bit of time has passed. Or it it just a new hair cut? Either way her new look really makes her switching from quiet classmate to ikemen mode go even harder.

There was a meme going around a while back. “Oh no” repeated four times with piano music. The audio was sampled from the song Remember (Walking in the Sand) originally by The Shangri Las, but I don’t know who did the version from the meme…

Anyway, that’s all to say that poor Ono is stuck in a multilingual music pun.

So now this is officially yuri, right? Oh, wait . . .

Oh no
