well, Ran may still simply dye her hair to get them from dirty blonde/light brown to blonde
and she's too beautiful on the 3rd volume cover...

So what's happening next? Are we gonna see No-rae's dream in the car? Or will we switch to a new scene completely? In the latter case I think that has No-rae reached a certain conclusion inside her head, she might still want to talk to someone about it. Considering Hee-jin knows Seol-a ran after No-rae, are we going to see the talk between two friends? Or more like, is No-rae going to come out to Hee-jin and ask her for advice? They seem to be good friends. And it's clear Hee-jin will accept this news just fine, considering how she reacted when No-rae first mentioned Seol-a to her.

Start with update 44 :
March 6 - March 9 - march 16 - march 19 - march 22 - march 24 - march 28 - april 1 - april 7 - april 12 - april 15 - april 17 - april 29 - Mai 2 - mai 11

Updates are rare ?

I'm not saying they're rare, I'm saying they used to appear faster:
day difference in March: 3, 7, 3, 3, 2, 4; average: 3.67 days
day difference in April: 4, 6, 5, 3, 2, 12; average: 5.3 days
day difference in May: 3, 9, average: 6 days
and if I average the last three releases, when the noticeable slow-down peaked: 12, 3, 9, av. = 8. That's more than two times bigger than in March, with one chapter being a filler.

Tan Jiu can update a little slower than the author of 19 day but the latter update very very very often and Tan jiu have never been that far behind (never been totally regular either)...

To be honest, I assumed it's the same author. Was I wrong?

also there isn't more progress in 19 day than in Their story, not that I feel there is less progress in their story now than in the beginning either x)

I haven't read 19 days, so I can't really compare the stories. But I certainly see that updates for 19 days come more often. And due-to my assumption of the same guy drawing them, I considered that Their Story might be in a pinch. There's also this very subjective personal perception that the author tries hard to invent the plot in order not to rush things into a confession of some sort and kill the story.

I personally don't see anything changed since the beginning (the last one being kind of a special).

At this point it's hard for me to verbalise my feelings. I really like the story and don't want it to end. But I got the vibe the author's been struggling with it recently, so I decided to ask if it's just me.

A little early and presumptuous to make calls like this.

You're probably and hopefully right. Just shared my observations though.

It feels that the author somehow ran out of ideas what to do with the story. The updates are rare (in comparison to 19 days). The progress is practically zero. And a lot of art talent and effort goes for ... for a cake recipe...

Wow, kyra, impressive work!!! I wish I could be as fast!
Thank you so much, halmoni, anon, and the rest - you so made my early Monday morning today!
And LOL, don't tell me that the cxca-cola polar bear is a requested Ikuni reference, kau-gau!

Wow, I'm actually awake before the translation has been posted.

By the way, I just notice the car in better detail. It look sooooooo much like my old car. A 4 wheal drive white Hyundai (Tucson) ^^

Haha, I was about to comment, how Ssamba put a lot of details this time, including the car, and you even figured out the actual model!
Now we also know that Seol-a is a right-hander - the wristwatch's on her left hand (really like how simple yet cute the model is). And No-rae's mom seems to still have a ring on her fourth finger, so I guess No-rae's dad's alive. Working in the city, perhaps?

The next hour or two is officially "wish you understood Korean" time.

and damn it's soooooo cute... especially small No-rae... and that... that HUG from No-rae's mum... sweet Jesus.. I'd die for it xD Guess it doesn't apply to some of the Dynastians though hahaha.

Even the lamest of friend is better than no friends unless he backstabs you and/or is extremely harmful, he's not quite there yet.

He will be. I'm certain he will.

The second to last panel you see is the brother storming in the apatment he lended to Seol-(I think?)
The last panel starts wite a blood splatter and then fades to black
"The End"

And then, the next chapter starts with Seol-a in yellow riding a motorbike

So no early chapter today - I'm so easily spoiled, hehe

Stupid question: When you unlock chapters on comico, is there a way for them to stay unlocked forever or is it always temporary?

it is always temporary unless you buy them with coins, if I got it right, i.e. you need to pay for them with your money to get unlimited access.

I want to read the new chapter so badly, but I guess there's going to be no Seol-a x No-rae interaction. Probably Seol-a learning about No-rae's past from So-seol. Perhaps also unconsciously giving hints to the brother about her relationship with No-rae. And No-rae will be thinking to herself about the decision she made last night. If she came to one.

Ran didn't seem too happy to see Keiko playing with a child

But of course Ran's worried. First, there's a miscarriage, second, there's the conflict with Keiko's mother. Not very positive topics - Keiko might fall in a depressive mood. This is sort of supported by Ran's question at the end ("Have you recently had nightmares, senpai?" unless I, again, mistranslate and misinterpret things).
Besides, Ran understands that Keiko does want to have a child a lot but this is something she can't give her. This is however, more of a yuri-goggles speculation.

It's interesting how in this chapter their interests and interactions again felt somehow disconnected although up till recent chapters it felt like they have totally been in sync with each other just about everything.

Anyways, looking forward to the translation. And so great the three-week-wait season is over! FF with its stable weekly schedule totally spoiled me ^^"

LOL, somehow Tomoe reference made me think of Akio even though he has no glasses. If Ssamba's reading this thread, please (or more like PLEASE!!!!!!), introduce a reference to Utena within the next 5 chapters!! hahaha... No-rae in a cowsuit.. or Seol-a revolutionizing No-rae's inner walls when they're going back to Seoul in a... ahem... car xDDD

Not sure why the mobile version isn't just the same content as the full version but just presented differently (simplified layout, touch-friendly).

may simply be a bug

halmoni

I have no idea why people would go on the comico mobile site when they could just download the app lol.

lol in fact I did it too yesterday, because switching between tabs is faster than switching between apps on my granny smartphone

Plot twist, actually I went over to their MT and gave Seol-a a blanket and pillow. So that was my real debut chapter. :^)))))

hahaha! How about another plot twist. New female character Hwang Min-jin is introduced. Immediately falls for Seol-a. Gives Seol-a a blanket and a pillow, kisses her, and realizes that she actually doesn't like girls. That night Seol-a dreamed of No-rae kissing her.

Lara 77

I don't think the brother will ask for much details about how things are between no-rae and Seol-A... I feel his nature is the type of calm big brother who likes to let the others talk when they are ready rather than asking for details himself.
I feel that in a way or another, he will be the one who will finally reveal to Seol-A , and to us, the wound of No-rae in her previous relationship and he will put it in away of indirectly saying...So please take a good care of our No-rae and be the "friend" who will stay by her side as no-rae needs you to show her the "path" she needs to choose.

THIS!

I like the fact that Seol-a questioned herself, what's going on, despite accepting No-rae's excuse. She clearly sees that something's bothering No-rae and that something appears to be beyond Seol-a's reach. I guess she will keep trying, hehe. Especially if the brother asks her to take good care of No-rae lol.
And No-rae is so sleepless... Guess she was thinking hard the whole night how to proceed now. Her brother suggested her to try the unpopular path. Seol-a actually came for her. Deep down her character must be crying to confess, yet she's so scared to do that. Really wonder which decision she reached eventually. Hope she will try to get closer to Seol-a and try to at least confess indirectly, as in try to show her affection more. So Seol-a, you get ready, girl! Haha
