Wow. Grandma with that old school multiplayer tech!

But the real question is, was it a Super Famicom, PlayStation or Saturn? This is important to determine her exact level of awesome.

So proud of Shimamura. She did not answer Tarumi's call and always have Adachi on her mind. Truly loved the chapter and that "Kyou no Adachi-san" is the icing on the cake, we can never get enough of baka-Adachi. Haha

It gets better when you consider Shimamura laments in the bonus chapter that Adachi wouldn't let her end the phone call late into the night and Adachi says she went to comb her hair and considered makeup and changing clothes immediately after the call. She likely did all of that in the middle of the night.

I see, thanks. I'm glad you're not stopping.

Man, I suck at Bomberman, Shimamura's grandma would definitely beat me.

Also, just to make sure I say it here as well, despite the situation with the other version, I am going to see this project to the end in one way or another.

What is this about?

Yamada. ... You're on vacation. Your girl friend has a room to herself, Yamada. Yamada, your on vacation and your girlfriend has a private room.

Forget the fireworks, girl, arrange a sleepover.

To be clear, Yamada, that does not mean you should just sleep when you go over.

The senpai seemed like she was trying to play wing-girl throughout this chapter, but she'll need a bigger clue-by-four if she wants to make a dent in our protagonists.

But from how Kase was talking about it, her room seems to be the equivalent of Harry Potter's cupboard under the stairs.

I seem to recall she did, but hell if I remember the exact point. I hope someone else can either confirm or deny it since I might just be misremembering.

Would Tarumi really say she remembers seeing Adachi somewhere before so vaguely when she had gone to that same restaurant Adachi was already working at? Seems like a weird thing to forget.

Look at these characters being able to leave their homes and go on vacations, wouldn't it be nice if the real world was like that, haha...

This manga is unexpectedly comedy gold, but also pretty hot when it wants to be.

He also wrote the manga adaptations, including the currently ongoing one.

Have fun, it's a wild ride.

She feels like she'd be very low-maintenance.

The worst part of it all is that Shimamura would probably see it as having get rid of two elements of disturbance at once.

Some NTR pairings in yuri are high IQ like Yuu X Sayaka but this one would just be weird.

Reminds me of what's going on in Vampeerz.

So far it's only based on a few hints people have noticed such as Shimamura willingly arriving half an hour early at her date with Adachi and covering her chest in the swimming pool's changing room. It's possible she hasn't simply been able to brush off what Adachi told her over the phone.

I'm interested in seeing if the idea some people threw out that Shimamura has become more conscious of Adachi since the latter's outburst and that she's been acting strangely is correct, which would require her POV.

"Sh-Shimamura, can we start calling each other by name? We've been married for ten years..."
"Huh? Isn't my name a bit difficult to keep saying? Shimamura is easier, Adachi."
"O-Okay..."

On their wedding day: "Wait, when did I agree to get married? Oh well, calling it off now sounds troublesome."

I feel like if the confession was to happen in an Adachi chapter, all we'd get for Shimamura's reaction would be a "Wow, cool".

Will the author ever grace us with Shimamura imouto's actual name though?

I'll cut the author some slack in this case because one of the side pairs has known each other for ages and the other is made of kids and not meant to be truly serious.

Hm, I don't usually empathize with the characters much while reading fiction since I prefer keeping my own thoughts and feelings separate to avoid coloring my expectations of them, but this was a case where I could really understand Adachi, more so than usual. Although she herself reflected earlier on about how empty her life and person are without Shimamura, so I'm not sure how healthy it can be to just accept she's not interested in ever opening up to other people.

If that girl with the glasses who seemed to know Adachi is someone who already appeared, I can only think of that middle school classmate who was with her on library duty.

Oh boy, this was quick. Time to read even though it's the middle of the night here.

It's funny how there inevitably end up being a lot of speculation and impressions after each chapter since they're translated one by one, whereas the author writes them to be consumed on a volume-by-volume basis. For all we know, next chapter will be from Shimamura's point of view and we'll get all the answers we want, and the author never intended for readers to agonize about them through forced stopping points.

Though this is a pretty interesting way of following the series in its own right and it sure beats having it done in chunks and to wait a long time for the next batch.

Nah, that fine gentleman was only interested in little girls. Maybe Shimamura would've worried about him had her little sister and Yashiro come along.
