SENPAI NO BAKA!

^ I did.

I get the "I will change now" part, but both of them seem a little cryptic in phrasing. (This isn't about the accuracy of either translation; I'm just wondering if anybody has any comments on these intro phrases in general.)

I won't go into discussion over translations but the Japanese text for that line is literally (and I mean literally):
If now, because now.
Make of that what you will I guess, the sentence is already ambiguous in Japanese so people need to look at context.

Thanks. I get the feeling that if I were trying to do such translations (never happen, though) I’d constantly be yelling, “Can I get a g*****d PRONOUN around here, please?!?”

And the answer would be: blank looks.

Lol. I need to make a countryball animatic from that.

LMAO.

False advertising. The string needs to be taut in order to actually hear anything. Kids these days know nothing about old toys :/

Considering the fact that I'm a teen, I could probably be classified as "kids these days", and I know how those cup-phones work despite not having used them once. But you're right, the string needs to be taut.

K.
I've read the many posts I missed, and I kinda feel like @Clueless1 on this. I can't say something that hasn't been said already.

Alright. Um... I would want to apologize for that self-advertisement incident from 28th January... And also to apologize for barging in with this off-topic post... Now, due to time constraints, I didn't read the beforehand posts, so, that's an additional layer of apology from me... But, I really wanted to just explain myself... After that self-advertisement incident, I got back to my self-punishing ways (because old habits die hard, apparently), and, so, deleted the post I advertised, and then decided to bar myself from entering the forums, fanarts and comments on Dynasty Reader for 8 days (29th January though to 5th February), while giving myself only one opportunity to see if there were any new chapters for the entire duration of those 8 days... I didn't have luck and there were no new chapters on any ongoing mangas I'm following at the time I decided to use the opportunity I gave myself. Those 8 days were basically a self-inflicted agony... and I can not say I didn't deserve it... Now I know how those drug addicts feel like when they go through withdrawal...
If I am to summarize what I said above in one (admittedly, run-on) sentence, that'd be: "That annoying Balkans guy is back, and, what with much (but not all) of his self-trust lost, he can only hope he can constrain himself, as, IF he does, he wouldn't screw himself over and annoy the shit out of everyone else.".
What a sentence!
I sincerely apologize.
And as for that post I advertised and deleted... I will re-post it, but, to avoid this being interpreted as self-advertisement, I won't be doing it any day soon.
Once again, most sincere apologies from me to you, for bothering you.
Peace.

BV I'm going to be deleting posts of yours advertising other posts of yours on sight from here on. Nobody else sees a need to do that and I'm mystified as to why you do.

No, this isn't an invitation to explain your reasons.

Fair enough. TBH, I'm not actually surprised.

EDIT:
Well damn, I thought I still had the opportunity to delete it before you did, but it seems to me you deleted it before giving the heads up.

Ahhh... finally some new fanart on this!

TL: https://imgur.com/a/DigCm2h
The chapter is also uploaded on Mangadex but I heard there's some internal server issue that's making it slow to load (The file size is pretty big too so I might have to reupload). This was such an amazing chapter & a bit of an interesting one to translate. 4s version should still be coming at some point, but this should suffice for now. Enjoy, folks!

Wow, thanks. Though, just like Blastaar, I'm gonna wait for it to be on Dynasty Reader to comment on it properly.

Whining, stomping my feet, and holding my breath until I turn blue isn’t actually going to make the translation appear here any faster, is it?

You'll never know until you try.

Guess not--no new chapter and here I am with a pounding headache.

Back to waiting patiently it is, then. :)

Stop it, you're making me feel like I'm a bad person for finding all this I quoted funny... And I think everyone should know by this point what usually happens when I feel like bad person... self-worth and self-esteem plummit, while self-loathing and self-punishment skyrocket

BV, I realize I don't really know you outside of these forums, and I don't always "get" your posts, which I chalk up to language barriers mostly, but some things I'm pretty certain of:

1) You're definitely not a bad person.
2) You're supposed to find that stuff funny
3) You should never trust the little voice in your head that puts you down. It's a dirty little liar

This is something I didn't know I needed until it came. Thanks.

Preview time!

Only one left after this one… I can't believe I followed and translated this series from beginning to end for 5 years. I'm gonna miss it. ;___;

Thank you for all your work Lyendith!

Bonus detail: Guess what’s back on the outside of Touko’s bag.

The strap she bought on that aquarium date?

Raws out: https://imgur.com/a/SnBxsoo

This chap is A LOT. I needed tissues. So proud of both Touko & Sayaka.

Gwah! Can't wait for it to be translated and put here on Dynasty Reader!

Also, YagaKimi stage play confirmed for May

Let's hope it's better than the Spider-man musical.

Lol.

If anyone is interested to see how the beta character designs look like, here they are: https://m.imgur.com/a/8pJjrJq

I'm trying to decide whether those images were a blessing or a curse for me. Could it be both simultaneously?

The fanart looks nice, but I can't support this ship.

The only downside at least to me of the fact that the chapters were uploaded yesterday is that my pun on page 81 went completely unnoticed...

Just because it was un-remarked upon doesn’t mean it was unnoticed.

I think the term is “merciful silence.” :)

... Let me guess... The pun didn't get anyone to laugh, innit?

If you are into history, this might be something that might interested in. Spoilers:
At the early part it has a pretty high note
Then it goes somewhat bad
Then it becomes quite intense
Then it gradually gets more depressing in the end.

While making this post, I was listening to "Immovable As The Mountain", which is also the last music in the video I linked to.

As the series and its readers slip into a reflective and retrospective mood, I was considering what would be the funniest single line in the series (so far). My current nomination:

“That means no Moe for you!”
(Delivered in a particularly moe way.)

Runner-up: “Tastes sweaty.”

(That’s granting that the bulk of the humor in the series tends to be tsukkomi/boke exchanges and more developed scenes.)

Random observation: Yurine’s sister, Sumire, is incredibly cute.

As for that, well, I'll gonna be struggling to choose, but probably be either: that ChihaIzu scene which someone, all the way back in volume 4, commented "How to confess 101", when Izumi just threw a bunch of flowers through the window on Chiharu; then what you mentioned about the "No Moe for you"; and, of couse, Sumire's "Can I call you Ayaka onee-sama?".

• Nagisa & Hikari—Double Tsunderes, will deny they like each other when they’re living together with a bunch of cats in their 70s.

This is, in my opinion, the most hilarious description of a couple... ever.

I read the latest chapters and I suddenly have a doubt: is there any male character depicted or even mentioned in the whole manga?

Are these girls gay, or is it an alternate universe like "Eden no Otome" where men have gone extinct (or never existed in the first place)?

If I remember correctly, (even though this can't possibly count as a character) there were a few images that featured a male professor handing exam results to Ayaka and Yurine's class in that chapter in which Ayaka had a fever, and then fell unconscious just as she realized that she won (on that one exam).

As for the second paragraph, I made a pun (but, as you can see, deleted it) stating how Seiran is so full of lesbians, that one could say it's saturated...
or, should I say...
satyuriated?

This is probably off topic, but I really don't want to waste these.
I have Vol. 1 YagaKimi DVD codes that I'd like to gave away so someone in Japan can actually use and not go to waste but I've had no luck giving it away since I think most English communities aren't in Japan/understand enough Japanese? https://twitter.com/f2mo89 I can send you the pictures with the code.

The code valid in Japan only is the YagaKimi Special Event in May pre-application ticket. http://cncn.jp/yagakimi_sp1/pcInfo.asp I'll have more from the Vol. 2 DVD too to gave away.

The other code is for the complete set DVD bonus mouse pad from Amazon Japan. (They'll need the other 3 codes from DVD bought from Amazon Japan). I only bought Vol. 1 DVD from Amazon Japan; so won't be qualified. https://e-entry.com/amazon-yagakimi-dvd

Maaan, this may have become the main reason why I regret being broke...
