Okay, I can't find this one again for anything--its about a gal who works at an aquarium that is falling on hard times, and she agrees to an illegal procedure to turn her into a mermaid, with the condition that she gets turned back. Instead they give her a "natural" mermaid girlfriend, and when the park closes instead of reverting her, the shady management chooses instead to have them stuffed and mounted... It's kinda fucked up so I wanna damage my friend for misery loves company... lol

I'm still looking for this so that I can make my bff suffer with me... apparently "mermaid" and "OL" were not part of the tagging (if I even read it here, I may not have. :-/ )...

I don't even know anymore what Kurogane want out of this relation.

The series description literally calls these sexual relationships "contagious" on the cover of the next chapter.

Ohhhh, so that's what happened to me. I caught The Gay.

YO I SWEAR IF THIS GETS AN ANIME

Like the one discussed on this very page?

lol, and that has been discussed for a couple months now? Oh, and whose light novel has now also been licensed...?

I mean, nope. No way. People hate this series, it's awful, so it will never happen.

The Moke ver. is definitely the worst version of this story. Only in that it leaves out all the small things that build up the characters, yet I still read it because I can't get enough of this series.

I'm still holding out the hope that it's just rushing through the chapters that the old release covered and that it will slow down once it goes past that point..

The last chapter is coming November 22nd

...wait. Damn.
How are the many dangling threads and clues and questions to be resolved in such short time!? ;_;

Well, Kyuubi ;) , I imagine it will be like many that have long drawn out developments and quick ends--it will be total crap!

Please put the pages in the correct order

Apparently that zombie Yuuri runs into was the psychopath chick from the college arc

How the fuck did it get to their old school?

They've said that the zombies seem to be drawn toward places that they have strong memories of, also we've been shown that some zombied people retain some modicum of their sanity for a while even after changing, so apparently she really really wanted to be there?

As wholesome as it is, that's probably gonna be mildly annoying in the future.
Imagine trying to just kiss one of them while the 3 of you are hanging out.
The other one will just keep butting in until you 3 are having sex.

That's hilarious! But really not usually how poly works IME lol

I think the big change we saw in Shima comes from a bit of introspection after the trip to Nagoya with Tarumi, and then just the hilariousness of her "date" with Adachi following almost exactly the same pattern. Two trips to Nagoya and having to run for the train? Check. Overcrowded with only one seat in the corner? Check. Same chocolate store? Check. It was like her trip with Tarumi was simply an ironic practice run...

Yeah.... you can blame the typos and missed grammar on me. I am not a healthy person, so I had some stuff happen that caused me to get backed up with the chapters, so I went too fast once I was finally able to really put butt-to-chair. Rest assured though when stuff QC misses is brought up here it gets corrected eventually.

The kids are alright, IMO

Yeah I'm surprisingly much less anti-Yashiro now that she mostly sticks to Shima's little sis. Which is doubly surprising as I am staunchly anti-kid in general.

I was mostly talking about Adachi and Shimamura themselves, lol, but you're not wrong either.

Oops again, lol...

I feel like I've got a much better understanding of who Shimamura is now - not so much someone who's dealing with bad memories so much as she's someone who has ambivalent, complex feelings about her memories and how her relation to them changes as she naturally gets farther away from them and changes herself. It's charming.

I really can't wait until she and Adachi kiss

Same. Adachi is gonna launch into orbit along with Yashiro.

Thanks again to you and Sneik, I've grown very fond of this series and I wouldn't know about it all if not for y'all.

Much appreciated. Though all I do is nitpick spelling and grammar, sneikkimies does all the hard stuff.

Thanks as always translators, sneikkimies and team

@ translator and qc, you do a great job and just know that I love you and I value you and I‘m happy you exist.

I just wanna thank the translator and qc.

Thank you. :)

Oh, but on the nitpicking side of things, last line of the last chapter has 'pedals' instead of 'petals'. ;)

Oops... frazzled brain was frazzled...

Hehe, don't feel bad, I had to search for a definition as well.
Looks like it means "somewhere between masc/butch and lipstick/femme" — which comes pretty handy to describe a lot of people! (like Akira)

^And me. lol I don't do makeup at all--seriously how do people even do eyeliner without blinding themselves, let alone get symmetrical"wings"??-- but I'm all about chapstick, flannel shirts, boots and baseball caps.

But I digress. I thought it was pretty obvious that Akira at least tried to make a move on Ayako. To me it seemed like that when she did it was probably after her brother passed and she made a huge faux pas. Hence the "I'd never earn the right to be by her side in my lifetime" remark she made

Because this is an official re-release (read: improved from web version for publication). The art is touched up/made more crisp and defined, and where it seems either needed or just a good idea, some panels are redrawn, some are added new, and sometimes some can be deleted entirely. So far not a lot seems to be different, aside from the art touch ups and the addition of a few extra panels to make a scene more impactful. (Like when Tadokoro goes and starts to cry at Nikaido's compliment of her art, we got a bit of a redraw with some extra panels for that scene that the webcomic didn't have.)

I'm a bit skeptical, only because I can't find a source that says anything, about a double amputee being able to stand or walk with prostheses that mimic real legs. A lot of our balance is controlled in minute changes in our feet.

The fact that we've actually made some pretty great strides (no pun intended) in prosthetic technology aside, we ARE also talking about an alternate world where superheroes do super stuff and even have a base floating up in space. Having prosthetics in that world that are able to more closely mimic real limbs isn't that far out in the realm of possibilities, especially given how close we can come to it in our own world. (I admit I had my own minor gripes about things like how little she had left below the knee and not wearing a stump sock, etc, but then I reminded myself of the above...) Nor is such a stretch that someone who is a healing super could figure out how to move more "normally".

Lipstick Lesbian A few of the girls (even Akira at times; other times she's chapstick)

I was today years old when I learned I am actually a "Chaptstick Lesbian"...

Yes I know this has nothing to do with this topic but I couldn't help it, didn't think I'd have much more to learn, lol...

Which pannel represents the cake song? I had to put the movie down for a week after that

Boo!! Cake song is awesome

Look at me commenting on a 2 year old comment :D

I too had to take a moment. Was watching on my PC (yarrrr) and I had to pause and take a moment as I muttered ".....what the... actual fuck..?" to myself. Seemed out of place even within the bizarro-world setting, heh.

I dunno, I think that that maybe kinda spoils the impact a bit...?

Also I think she's just a naturally aggressive person... doesn't mean we're always angry. >_>

Also, I need a Lady Black in my life to fix my back like that. What a change to my life it'd make. Climbing mountains my ass, I'd be running up the damned things like my fat ass had wings.

Senpai is totally projecting her siscon onto all the underclassman and using them, unsuccessfully, as replacements for her little sister, ain't she? So she knows a little bit about the struggle of "impossible" love. I reckon this is just her twisted way of trying to force Asuka to either shit or get off the pot (as they say back where I'm from, lol).

So regarding the nurse (forgot their name) and Mimi calling her an 'old man'... Is that supposed to imply that she used to be an old man and used some kind of magic to turn into young woman or that she's a pervert? I mean, those two student in one chapter called her a pervert, so it's possible that she's doing to lead to those conclusions.

It's because I believe the original term Mimi used was "jiji", which is usually interpreted as kind of like "dirty old man". For whatever reason the translation used a literal interpretation. She wasn't meaning to literally call her an old man, she was just calling her a pervert, more or less.

Oh pardon us. Go right ahead and talk about the actually important and topical matters. Nobody will interrupt you, you have my word.

Your point being?
Dude chill, it's just an internet forum. People are doing much worse than this in the UN assembly, for instance.
