The author has kept this arc going for quite a while without the tension break of actually learning what the problem is that's causing this negative reaction/tantrum. I have my guesses, presumably something related to all the bother she made for her adoptive parents and feeling very guilty and not wanting them to go through that with another brat? But Xiaoyang really doesn't seem that bad, whatever trouble he causes can't be worse than what Xiaoen is doing with her tantrums and enbyphobia. It's obviously a very irrational position she's in. Definitely appreciate Xingyuan countering her trying to say some vile shit she probably doesn't mean just to hurt Xiaoyang and chase him away.

I think we do know. Xiaoen was the unwanted child, given up and forgotten/erased from her real parents. Xiaoyang was her replacement as the son, but Xiaoyang wasn't who the parents wanted them to be despite the expectations and possibly a façade. Xiaoyang then tries to be who they want to be outside the family, repeatedly going to Xiaoen who is basically traumatized (for lack of better words, even I think trauma is a bit too much). So whenever Xiaoyang is around, she's reminded every time how people outside Peachtown basically don't want her.

AHA! Before it was revealed that she'd already paid I had a feeling it was all a play.

Unless it's a cut off interrupted sentence Hana's last speech bubble before being zonked has a proofreading error that slipped through:
"You've been following me all the after..." I assume this was meant to be "after all".

all afternoon probably

Still doesn't fix the glaring problem of that "the" in the middle.

Edit: you were correct, had a look back at the chapter to check and it's been fixed.

Kanna left for the US to follow the dream she and Joe had together… without him. He chose Mitsuki who he wasn’t going to take to the US with him at that age. Then she waited until Mitsuki was about to come of age to see how he felt and perhaps convince Mitsuki to come to the US too. So he’d not have that last reason to stay. But she came right when Aya was becoming a big person in Mitsuki’s life. So she helped Aya and regularly reassured Joe that Mitsuki wasn’t alone because Aya was right beside her. Mitsuki would be fine if Joe left with her.

Only now Aya isn’t quite Mitsuki’s person, just a younger version of herself, and Joe is joking about Kanna being like a mom, a role she turned down before, and not what she came back for. She has in her heart what she wants with him, but can’t ask him for it.

I think you've hit the nail on the head, if I'm reading you right. Kanna is afraid of the commitment after having put it off so long to be allowed to be in their lives after Joe said "mom". I think it triggered her flight response.

"And they were ROOMATES!"

Yesssss, they're both making moves! I legit hissed that "yes" out loud I was that happy.

So they're both living punching bags, one in the sexual and the other in the literal sense :(

I think the latter is used as both :(

actually i didn´t dislike the boyfriend, he seems a pretty chill boy and i do hate men on yuri stories.

Idk if a "chill" dude would forcefully drag his girlfriend (and not gently, as she complains about grip strength) somewhere dark and secluded, then complain like being caught in the act of something when interrupted only to go away and leave the girlfriend behind instead of asking for privacy. Boy was acting super caught-in-the-act guilty.

Hrm. I'm thinking that Yoshi was and still is hostile to try and get Hana to leave him so that she can be herself. I've seen it happen so many times in manga and other media that it just feels like that's what's happening. It's always possible that it's just as stated, but still. This by no way excuses his behavior if that comes to light, he's still being a dick.

The faces! Miriko's faces! She's us, the readers! She's wondering why theses two aren't together yet and kissing and living together and already adopted kids!

Oh goodie, Dad is one of those snobs. I admit sometimes a cover doesn't live up to expectations subjectively, but it seems he treats it all objectively. UGH.

Pg 37

freshly baked bread like what rachel makes would be eaten as it

should probably be "as is"?

That page has a few minor grammar issues. The other notable one is "they would dip stale bread soaked in potage or wine". Unsure if they meant "until it was soaked" or if "soaked" slipped it's way in and wasn't corrected on a proof read

I hope they touch on classic patriarchy lineage vs how actual lineage works via this new scope. Men aren't the sole provider to genetics >:[ Especially with the way the story is going and the lost prince having the dark magic, compared to a "all women only magic", I can see ways to flesh this out that I hope the author doesn't just wave away.

It's obvious VP did all the stuff so efficiently to make the rest of the council quit so she could be alone with Prez.

Man, it's so nice to see Ming Wei HAPPY, but I fear potential fallout. I hope there's no punishment.

Just so people don't get the wrong idea, the monster is saying they are LIKE Slender Man in appearance/size, not that they are.

Regarding the translator's notes, pigeons are just another name for Rock Doves, specifically but not exclusively the domesticated Rock Dove yet still also used commonly for the wild variety.

There's also no real distinction between other species of dove or pigeons for why they call them that other than generally the size of the birds. Bigger birds in Columbidae are usually called pigeons and doves the smaller, but it also is inconsistent as a "rule".

Mom really fucked up there. Page 25 specifically (or what's labelled as 25) shows she wasn't ready for nor expecting the absolute clusterfuck that she herself forced to happen. She just thought one stalker was bad enough, but she literally called the starving pack of scavengers right to a buffet, which then turned into an all out brawl. Idk why the school, students, and managers had to apologize when Mom was responsible for everything. Should have had legal charges pressed against her.

What makes an isekai is the whole “dying and reincarnating” thing, so it’s more likely it’s time travel

I’m curious how this girl got sent back in time. Is her room like the tortis? Tardis? The blue box in Doctor Who that does the time traveling thing

Can she go back and forth, or did she build the mills and stuff? Very curious

Isekai has often lately been conflated with reincarnation, but as someone else stated isekai is not about reincarnation. The word/term used by other manga that do have reincarnation usually have "tensei" in the title from the many I've seen, but as with any JP word using kanji you have to make sure the reading is correctly used.

Jealousy Arc start!

It's been a long time, why's Adachi at odds with her mom?

Ok, I can't tell if emperor not finishing what she said on page 3 is on purpose...or because a oopsie with the translation.

Methinks it's a typo translation error, "their" was meant to be "them" perchance.

Looks promising. Wonder if Shiichasu will get a turn.

Admit it, we all immediately thought it was Mya-nee.

Such a nice ending to the chapter, though. ^_^

No, I thought it was Stalker-chan
