This should be made into a custom tag for this chapter

Well, that escalated quickly

Huh? Next is the last? Is it getting axed.. Because the age gap?

Doubtful, there are a lot of age gap stories and this is by far one of the most wholesome of them. "Falls in love with gorgeous girl, learns it's a child, decides to forgo romantic intend and act as a responsible adult in a wholesome, good-role-figure, friendship"? Given it's JAPAN we're talking about, it's likely it got cancelled because it was TOO LITTLE extreme.

Cute but I don't appreciate the usage of the word "doggo", it was very painful, please no more. Very cute, thanks for the translation.

Agreed. Memes tend to not age well.

Well, that escalated quickly

"Being paid to play with big boobs is the best."

I dare anyone to find a better life to live.

Ichihara Chiaki would agree

At exactly that point, was when Akane considered seriously droppig everything and moving to a SFW manga.

Kiss fight! Kiss fight! Kiss fight!
Oh, shut up!
(kissfight)

Risa is such a bro. No two ways around it.

To be a couple you need two

Do we have here exactly half of an "idiot couple"? And hilariously, don't we have here an "useless straight" and a scaringly competent lesbian? It's as if the mangaka was making it on purpose to mess with common tags...

those tags

Oh hell no. If she hurts the cat, fuck that mermaid.

KLONK
(noise of kitty-hurting series being dropped)

Manga endorsed by Shadow Zone, I see. Small wonder their idiot couple levels are on "rocket scientist of the week" tier.
(I wonder how many people, if any, will get those references)

gaydar jamming

dunno if it deserves a what the fuck am I reading? tag or not, but certainly makes me consider it.

And yep I think that "What?" was all of our reactions lol.

I even dropped the "h"

edit: usually would jokingly suggest adding a what? tag to the chapter, but for this one is better to deliberatelly do NOT add any "oh what a tweeest" tag - it would spoil the effect of that "what?"

are... are really Japanese surprised by bare shoulders? Not bare tits, bare ass or even bare legs - bare SHOULDERS?
Or is the mangaka exagerating for comedic purpose?

What was that park?

place where they started dating. Even with the "do you want it to be?" (a date) line.

Nothing according to keikaku

Also wouldn't this technically be considered Tsundere?

by this point they are stablishing a new kind of 'dere. We have here the KOIDERE, 濃いデレ - the one who alternates betwen lovey-dovey (the "dere", [デレ] as you all know) and dense as compressed neutron matter (the "koi", [濃い])

Not keen on this, first the guy earns zero sympathy for his sob story. "Huhuh, I have a strong sex drive, so I'm gonna cheat on my girlfriend and cause her to frequently go get drunk and vent in a pub. Because I cherish her, of course."

He's an idiot and insensitive. Worthless as a boyfriend and as a friend. What exactly was the takeaway of this chapter

We already knew this guy to be scummy, and this chapter stablished him also to be a crybaby.
At a MINIMUM (and that minimum would be by playing Devil's advocate, asuming his sorry tale is -against all common sense- actually true, and that he just don't realize how idiotic his actions were) he has a HUGE comunication problem for not talking out that stuff with her. The MOST LIKELY scenario is however his sory tale being just a self-told lie to self-justify he thinking with his crotch.
The takeaway of the chapter seems to be the breakfast of page 94. Err... sorry, couldn't resist. Seems to be a set-up for future interactions.

I'm honestly more interested in the old guy vs the dragon.

we won't get to see the icredibly epic fight because the two tsunderes have left and the guy's imagination is gonna follow them. Obviously.
