NARITA-SAN I HAVE A JOB FOR YOUU PELASE (shu x rinko, BELIVE DE PROCESS)

When does he start getting paid though?

Yeah, cool your jets about a potential breakup, this is really about the series' usual theme of the connecting power of music.

Triple length chapter? The scene transitions with the cups and the guitar were great.

I'm so happy the delay of gen 10 is giving us more Horizons episodes. I'm not ready to say goodbye to these characters yet.

I'm reminded of Randy Marsh blaming the mess on ectoplasm.

^^ As of the current point in the manga, Agott (right) has a crush on Coco (left). Coco doesn't seem to have noticed yet but their relationship keeps developing.

^ Those people are unreasonable and shouldn't be humored.

I think that's fair if they haven't read the manga and are only basing it off the first few episodes of the anime. Seeing people ship them without knowing the later context would look weird.

Finally more people will discover the ancient Arkco texts.

I'm glad the scanlators got these, they're so good.

is this a official work? Because the art style and coloring are insane!

No, it's an unaffiliated doujin. There should be two more coming from the same group which are longer and also full color, they're very impressive.

The one who created Kaguyachiyo's body was Iroha

I wasn't implying that wasn't the case, sorry if my post came off a bit unclear. By 'the same teenage body she had' I didn't mean literally the same but one modeled to look the same as that.

and she either made it so it could grow somehow, or she just makes a new body every few years to simulate Kaguyachiyo's growth.

Iroha mentions a YC (Yachiyo)-type body she had already tried moving Kaguya into so we know for a fact she made multiple.

Iroha's tendencies are not her fault, her relationship with Kaguya is just complicated.

Is anyone else wondering why Iroha insisted on Kaguya appearing that age...?

There are two different Kaguya bodies during the ending. The one she awakens in which is the same teenage body she had when she spent the summer with Iroha ten years earlier, and an adult body that seems to match Iroha's age seen in the concert, the various photos on their kitchen table and in the Ray music video. This doujin and a lot of fanart prefer to go with the younger body anyway, which I get because it differentiates Kaguya and Yachiyo further.

There are over a hundred doujins announced over several dedicated events, let alone general ones like Comitia. Ganbare scanlators!

I decided I'd buy my whole local release of the manga if this ever happened so I did, thank you Hiro.

Wait, why did her name change and how does Sae already know that it did?

People who die and become cupids lose their last name and become known only by their first. Sae mocked Ena by calling her her last name Hasumi before correcting herself.

Do...do cupids kill other people to make more cupids? Now I'm wondering if Koharu's accident was more than that.

Kanna was masquerading as Koharu's classmate in her flashback, though I'm sure in her case her aim was to make her fall in love and Koharu's death was a genuine accident she was powerless to prevent. Here though, it certainly looks like Sae caused Ena's death on purpose.

For some reason, I had thought there'd be some filler in the volume release to mitigate that issue (which was a very stupid thing to expect, of course).

Maybe you could expect something of the sort in the anime.

^ There's also the matter of Mitsuki probably not being ready to open up to Aya about her inner turmoil yet and using sex as a distraction, whether she's aware of it or not.

Glowing eyes means they're doing it both in the real world and VR at the same time. I'm looking forward to doujins with the same premise.

Things are obviously not back to normal, Mitsuki has closed herself off to music. The drama around that is just starting.

That helps a lot to connect the dots, the only thing I'm not sure if it's clear is this

they buried her capsule, since it wasn't needed anymore

Is there something that adds some meaning to them burying the capsule? I first I also thought they were digging it out, but the capsule is perfectly clean so burying it makes more sense, I just don't get why they did it. Even if they didn't need it anymore, I feel like there should be something more that I'm missing given the attention it was given in the MV.

It's another reference to the original Tale of the bamboo cutter. Kaguya and the emperor of Japan fall in love, but Kaguya has to return to the moon so she gives the emperor an elixir of immortality as a parting gift. The emperor travels to the top of Mt Fuji and burns a letter in hopes the embers will reach her on the moon and the elixir because he considers immortality without Kaguya by his side a curse and rejects it. In the subversion operated by this movie, Iroha is the emperor and the song Reply is the letter which does reach Kaguya. Kaguya's ship used to house her soul over the 8,000 years she spent on Earth until it was plugged into the internet and it represents her immortality. Iroha transfers her soul in a new body and the burial of the ship at the top of Mt Fuji symbolizes Kaguya herself deciding to live on as a normal human with her love, a complete inversion of the elixir's meaning in the fairy tale.

Whether Kaguya actually becomes mortal or if her soul will still persist in the moon/virtual realm once her new body dies is a different matter and starts involving speculation about the nature of human souls vs lunarian souls which I don't think can be definitively settled.

By the way, there's a paywalled third page where the examination, uh... goes further.

the gacha has unlimited reroll and the others can choose which form she takes

Yeah, that kinda bothers me about these comments (same elsewhere). I mean, not to make this little thing an entire thing, but this simply has nothing at all to do with gacha. It's infinitely repeatedly, at no cost, with what looks like roughly a 50:50 chance. It's as close to a coin flip as something that's not flipping a coin can be. No gacha works like this, anywhere. If it did, they wouldn't be the predatory, exploitive garbage that they are.

Otherwise I naturally agree that it's great we keep both forms. Now of course we only need an excuse for everyone to get both a wholesome and a pervy form; including the "villains" - swapped-roles-arc when? :p

Gacha is just the act of getting something randomly, it doesn't inherently carry the negative connotations it has acquired over time.
