Probably because of the mention of her mother's being used as a "vessel by those things" (as mentioned in the link above).

I mean, I get wanting to explain the system as something else, especially when - like for most of us - it is your first time meeting this trope, but it makes no sense if you consider the perks it can offer for the points or the way too far-reaching punishment she got for disobeying it.

my suspicion is that what has so far been referred to as the "villainess system" is a high-tier Mare that can seal off certain memories and command its "vessel" but isn't able to manifest like the Mare possessing Elsa way back when did.

Why jump to such far-fetched theories when the much more likely one is that she didn't have these memories because the time traveling older version of her is in control during this time, leaving behind a gap once she returns to her own time again.

These adorable idiots. Pure comedy this time. :D

And the father is already confirmed to be the smartest character in this manga.

Kitties!

Lovely. Things are really getting interesting now.

Adorable indeed.

And then, chaos.

It turned into a marriage interview because you're planning to get married, of course.

Excellent! ^_^

Nice.

And finally he figures it out.

All in all an absolutely hilarious chapter, though. :D

Father Firebomb

That is such a brilliant name for him... :D

Komari does her usual job of outrunning explosions, Eri gets saved by her own girlfriend. All is well as it should be.

That was surprisingly lovely, even with the separation, especially considering what Shimeji was dreaming of when it came to Majime. Just this page alone warms my heart like nothing else.

Adorably useless even on their first trip as a couple.
