Shinobu doesn't know much of her real parents. She lost them in the war, or something. She was raised by a family who were neighbors or relatives. They lived in abject poverty, and in fact that family planned to sell Shinobu to a brothel in a few more years. Kagami's mother made a deal with that family (gave them money, I guess) so that they would allow Shinobu to attend the academy. She also settled in that town for a while and taught Shinobu all she needed to know for the entrance exams. Shinobu took a liking to her and started calling her auntie, and has been writing letters to her ever since she arrived in Tokyo (it's implied she doesn't know her real name, only her address). Of course, Kagami had no clue about any of these things: she hasn't returned home or talked to her mom for years.
What would you know, I got almost everything right. Go me.
We need further information on all these matters, but occasional contact between Madame Kagami and Shinobu seems much more plausible than Kagami’s mother raising Shinobu in dire poverty.
That's the only piece that really doesn't add up. If Shinobu had enough contact with auntie for her to tutor her up to speed for the entrance exam it seems unlikely she would have left the poor girl in such poor condition. There must be something we are still missing.
She didn't say she tutored her, she said she told her what to study. In fact, Shinobu had problems with her grades at first because while she memorized what she needed for the entry exam, she didn't actually understand any of it and had to learn from square one when studying with Kagami. I almost wonder if Auntie just gave her the answers to the test.
Even if that's not the case, she said she was told what to study, not that she was tutored directly.
It had been a while since I read those early chapters, but you are right about the wording. The whole thing still seems a bit off to me but perhaps we will get the gaps filled in as the story goes. It still seems odd that her very rich "auntie" would have left a girl who is close enough to refer to her as family in a borderline starving state like that without some sort of reason.
^Nope, definitely not a muffin, although I can see how the shading of her palm may look confusing. Looks pryanik enough to me, even if not quite the kind I'm used to.
They caption some of the strangest things in this manga, lol... Like in the 4th chapter "Lined up, lined up, lined up" as the students were on their way to breakfast or the actual breakfast having "warm, warm" around it.
I finally found it in Spanish! It's in chapter 16 right now <3.
If there are translation issues I can translate it from Spanish, probably not as good as doing it from Japanese though
You can still try to contact the team who work on it to see if they still on it or dropped it. I mean, it's not like doing translations from Spanish will hurt too much from raws.

It looks like they dropped it in Spanish too, chapter 15 was uploaded way back in May :(
That sadden me that the manga seem to be popular in Japan, it get top 10 in the last Yuri Navi top list but here it'sbarely popular and we struggle to have translation.
If this one really is dropped from English translation in the long term I’ll be very disappointed, because it was one of the series I most looked forward to reading.
(For quite a while I was Googling around hoping for news of an official version so I could pay money for it.)
this series already on chapter 18 , but why is still there is no update in here ?\
is it not gonna updated here anymore ??
Idk, the current translator team didn't give news so we don't know if they're still on it but can't do it or if they drop it. A good thing will be that another team or someone pick it up and continue the translation.
