I have to say, the reduction of tone use in the art has definitely been an improvement. It really helps to see and sell the extreme facial expressions more.

I love how goofy this manga is, I'd love to see it turned into an anime.

Anne.... What do you mean "have I lost...!?" god she really is exactly the type to declare she won't lose right before getting dunked on isn't she. Have I lost??? A reminder in the first chapter breathing the same air as Anne made Kaoru shake and drool from excitement so hard that Anne believed she was possessed.

Have I lost. As if she could delve the depths of embarrasement Kaoru plumbs on a daily basis lmao. Though I guess yes, you have lost, you are in fact falling for that Kaoru despite getting into this with the explicit goal of crushing her under foot.

This manga likes to randomly make one character the reasonable one while everyone else behaves like complete maniacs, doesn't it :P

This manga literally makes me laugh out loud. The character dynamics are so bananas. Being nervous visiting another's house, fine. But being so arrested by the home and the aura of Anne's mom in particular as to fall silent at the table... and Anne's solution to this is to applaud... It's all just so funny.

Absolutely nobody in this story is reasonable.

She lost The Game :-(

The crazy Yuri is back! Thanks for the translation! And love to see Anne actually being the master of the scene for once! Time to rule because they’re in your realm! Your home!

Don’t mind all your failed plans before and how you’re the one who learned the most and got the most embarrassing scenes from the Gyarus, the sports tournament, the maid cafe (twice!) and all that.

And you show them who’s boss and who’s on top!!!

Hey now, Kaoru's younger sibling and Anne's cat seem perfectly reasonable (reading Das Kapital as a 10 year old is perfectly reasonable). It's just that each family is only allowed to have a single member with more than two brain cells. Though, Kaoru's encounter with Ms. Red Flags seems to have given her an infusion of sanity, because she's been acting much more reasonably lately.

Started from the beginning. I'm dense and I need to ask a question.

Kouru's not actually smoking weed, right? Anne just thinks she does because she's a sheltered "good girl" who believes the reefer is a common source of all evil.

Yes, Kaoru is technically not using any psychoactive drugs. Anne thinking that she's on something is not that strange because Kaoru is always a drooling mess in front of her. The crazy part with her is that she goes full steam on that suspicion and tries to solve it with literal weed killer.

Correct, neither Kouru nor her friends use weed or any other form of drugs.

I can't recall exactly where I heard it, but from what I have heard, marijuana usage is not as common in Japan as in the West, or it at least isn't a publicly discussed thing. Many people in the West have some general understanding of what weed does, how it's used, etc, even if they themselves don't use it. On the other hand, the majority of Japanese people don't really know what weed does or how it's used beyond "a thing you smoke that has funky effects on your brain".

Well the whole idea of this chapter was absolutely insane, you have to be a genius to even come up with something this stupid that works (and I mean this without a hint of irony :P)

If TL wanted a forced joke with MSG, they missed MSG -> Management of Sausage -> Sausage Management. I think it's too late to work in a correction unfortunately...

This is a good summary of the series. We had an extended plotline about the MC's love interest bringing weed killer to the MC's house.

I found out about this series relatively recently, but I've enjoyed it a lot more than I expected. The art is fun too. It still feels like the style of standard manga art, but they take a lot of liberties to do things in a creative way. A lot of series are shackled to the moe aesthetic or otherwise want the characters to seem conventionally attractive - which is weird to me given how unrealistic manga art is, but manga readers somehow developed unrealistic beauty standards for simplified comic characters.

Weed killer saga was good too but this is a step above, which I didn't think was possible. It's not just characters being weirdos this time, there's some pseudo-scientific phenomenon at play related to processed/unprocessed foods and I cannot really fathom how do you even come up with this stuff

I believe that step one is being Japanese, but that there's several more after that author had to accomplish to bring us this chapter.
