Ngl I wanna see hodaka and hiyori make out soon
ffs sorry for my big thumb I meant to like ur comment
Oooooookaaaay
Ok ok ok okaaay
That was a huge step!!
I wonder how many steps back we’ll go now *sobs*
It’s always like this ┗( T﹏T )┛
Kinda random but I had never seen guys be embarassed of going to bakeries or sweet shops before I started reading manga. This thing that they say that desserts and sweets are girly and only women like them is so weird, so different from what I know lol
Maybe it’s a Japan thing idk
i'm not japanese so don't take my word for it... but yes, it seems that liking sweets is seen as "girly" in japan (as well as childish)
apparently, coffee-flavored desserts are an exception because of the bitter taste
Right? That's so weird!! I had no idea that was a thing
I'm not japanese but the reason for this is that sweets are usually presented as cut and fluffy and normally that's a girls things. So a man been in this stores looks unnatural. Since coffee shop are as well different there fluffy cute and stylish to fit the asthetic as well some of them even have rules that man are not permitted
I mean to an extent we (Americans) do it as well but with beverages. Sweet, colorful cocktails are considered "girly drinks". Black coffee is considered "manly," while pumpkin spice lattes are notoriously associated with women.
Like you might know assigning gender to random things is nonsense, but you're more struck by the absurdity when you see another country's silly made up gender rules from the outside
Thanks for the replies, guys! Interesting points of view
It's interesting to read the comments. I'm French, and at home it's not gendered at all. Everyone buys sweets, and pastries are just a cult ahah. Seeing a man not appreciate pastries, it'll be more weird for us than anything else xD. I suppose that in Japan, sweets are very connoted with girls, Valentine's Day and all the “kawai” aestheticism. Over here, it's more of an “art de vivre” for everyone.
I never liked Naru… but I like this mangaka so I gave it a try
Holy shit this is so boring
I’ll wait till it’s finished… maybe it gets better
Ugh their talk was so wishy washy
Better than nothing I guess. But we need better than the better than nothing.
leaving wiggle room for that issue to come back full circle and be resolved in some way
Lmao what’s with the censoring curse words
What are we, 10 years old??
Why did I just reread this, it’s good but such a torture aaa （/TДT)/
This is probably one of the best things I’ve read all year, thanks for the translation
Fuck off blondie
