Everyone goes so easy on Tomoe and idk if it's because you wanna protect hard into just have a kid and leave it and still be told you're a good mom.
Now, the fact that she left her kid knowing she was not fit for mom hood is awesome, she was aware and left her with people that will love her. That's commendable.
The fact that she leaves and never takes care of Ayu, just when she's on vacation or when she wants to, while both guys are just taking care of Ayu and her needs daily sacrificing time and doing all their effort all that while Tomoe still gets to be the legal mom. That's what's shitty.
She does none of the work and gets to be the "real" parent. And everyone plays into that, she's incredibly selfish.
She doesn't want to be a mom, but doesn't want to give up her mom status.
Both guys deserve better.
I'm not slandering her. She's a bad mom and a selfish person.
I'm just saying the manga could have addressed that better cause she was painted in a good light, when, actually what she did was just terribly selfish.
The whole adoption point doesn't hold because these boys didn't want a baby. Tomoe dropped Ayu on them. They didn't ask. Of course they ended up loving her but they didn't want her. They didn't ask for her. Tomoe just dropped Ayu on them, not considering what they wanted at the time.
A kid needs so much time and work. And they have done so much. Tomoe doesn't deserve to be called ayu's mom, while the boys are still referred to by name by Ayu.
Tomoe was a selfish person. She dropped Ayu, didn't think of the baby, nor on the people she was dropping her with.
Tomoe is a bad mom. She's never there for Ayu. Just when SHE has free time.
these are facts.
you make a good point tbh, I agree. because she's suffered so much loss, unfortunately no one will ever bring up this issue to her :/ they'll give her free passes forever.
Did your mom drop you on two gays that didn't even want a kid?
Cause I see you projecting but I don't see the correlation here?
being a distant mom is not the same as just dropping you to follow some guy in another continent for someone else to be your whole family unit?
Like maybe stop being defensive and understand they're different situations instead of projecting.
Tomoe dropped her kid to her two friends cause she didn't want a kid, well, the guys didn't want a kid either.
she was selfish.
Oh but she wants to be seen as a mom without ever being there, oh wait, she sees ayu like one month a year! And then just talks to her on the phone! Yep that's deffo gonna help her when she's got the flu. Lemme get out my #1 mom mug.
My point is no one ever calling her out on it and treating her like she's perfect and good. She's not. She's allowed to be selfish, but no one ever calls her out on it.
That was my critique. If someone ever called her out on it ever, I would have no issue.
-------
Also @bimblefrog. Yep, I agree no one is ever gonna comment anything which is annoying af, she's never gonna get better.
1. Tomoe did not "follow some guy into another continent". She goes to underdeveloped/dangerous countries for social causes as her job.
2. She loves her child. It is the child she had with the man she loves who is now dead. She cannot prioritize over her child or job because both are important to her. If she didn't want a kid she would've aborted.
3. Tomoe tries her best to keep up with her daughter's life through technology. Ayu's personality emulates her mother's which means they must've had a decent amount of interaction off screen.
All in all, yes she was selfish but looking from her perspective I could understand her decisions. Besides, she is not the focus of the manga and her lack of involvement in Ayu's life is just a plot booster for Ayu to stay with the guys.
this was what i thought about her character the whole time
I really ship Asuza and Ayumu.
I really wish they would both leave the game together in the end, they seem like the only real people in the whole manga.
I know it's not gonna happen but I can dream.
Holy fuck I'm sorry atsumu...... You're the cutest I'm sorry I cannot spell.
YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THE AUTHOR DIDN'T GET THEM TOGETHER AGAIN CAUSE SOME BULL EXCUSE THAT'S GONNA DRAG THIS 50 MORE CHAPTERS?
WOW SHOCKED.
The more chapters the better
Bless the original group coming back to this.
I really hate this group's obsession with (badly) coloring pages
Bless not! We were waiting for ever for an update...
You'll get your update and without this group and their ego being a part of it.
LMFAOO!! @Kyu14
Hello again, you negative & stalking soul. You are ALWAYS following my group and making hateful & rude comments. It’s been almost a year, and wow...you still have that horrible energy. Always talking trash & being so hateful.
Honestly, you really flatter us~~~~you give us more attention than anyone else.
Is this that weird thing where you talk crap about the thing you love most?
Us
LOL...whatever....
WE ARE STILL HERE! And you are gonna STILL read the manga we put out dead... So talk as much crap about us; a year later, 10 more manga released & 1,500 more followers...we had yet to stop.
#Tough
Love,

Please ignore this decaying soul. Apparently, when a group add their own dicks to manga that weren’t there & redraw it...no ego is involved. But, when they add color pages, then it’s “ego” & we apparently are trying to “flaunt” ourselves (idk where their logic comes from) apparently 1-2 color pages is egotism.
I’m proud of my colorist who volunteered to try to add (something) to the group’s efforts when scanlating. They aren’t just a troll who writes negative griping comments, and actually does no scanlation themselves.
If we suck soooooooo bad, pick up our projects~~~ release it yourself. #DoBetter.... @Kyu14
Or continue to talk crap....behind a screen...lol
Thx, I look forward to another Salty dedication page like last time =*
I'm just so happy you're leaving this project, I was very upset I had to stare at your shitty coloring because I was already following this manga.
But I'm free now :)
Lol, don’t flatter your stagnant life. You got no dedication page dear. Buuuuut....if no one else in life is showing you the attention you clearly crave, suuuuuure, it’s for you. :)
And you know what, actually~~ Lewd4Yaoi Scans will probably do chapter 26 too, and have several more color pages than last time. I’ll see if there’s time in their schedule~~~No one said we (had) to let it go, it was by choice. Thanks for the ongoing motivation!!
This manga deserves better deffo but if you wanna do a whole chapter just out if salt that's ok by me. It's more work than I deserve and deffo more than just one Salty page.
I really feel bad for you...it’s almost depressing. (But then I think of my life filled with positivity
You done?
Good.
Tell your colorist to practice color theory cause blue with red? It's always such a bad combination and composition and to use something else other than soft shadows/coloring + burn.
take the advice.
You guys are projecting so much, Sanada has been apologizing since chapter 1.
He did it with actions and then in this chapter with words. Idk what more you want from the poor guy?
that happen when people only see one side(⌒▽⌒)
i forgot about that completely. ): i’m booboo the fool
The translator is throwing a fit now?
so no one can express (well deserved) negative comments?
The fuck is this? I k own most people are go na down vote my post into oblivion cause MUH TRANSLATIONS but wow, Transat or our opinion on the story does not reflect your job as a translator?
Like you didn't write it I don't understand why so triggered.
People are allowed to express opinions and this sort of censoring is the worst. Translator can stop and I'd rather not read this anymore if I can't give my honest opinion on it.
A translator's need for virtual attention is not worth more than my freedom of expression.
And you should all learn to stop giving into this sort of manipulative behavior.
LMAO just show me where the fuck the translator said that because now I'm curious, as the last thing I saw her post about was a quick note about Here u are not having a chapter last week (because the author didn't update it, not because she didn't want to translate). And at another topic she explained why the last chapters were a little late compared to before, and the reason was that, wow, she has a life too besides translating this specific work.
So, yeah, I'd like to know where she said that
The author is really dragging this and it shows.
either main couple has a "wacky" misunderstanding that makes the plot go back or we go to side couples.
We get it authir you're milking this but it's been 75chapters. Maybe you've milked it enough.
True enough.(〜￣△￣)〜
Wao the art was so different I thought it was the wonho and the cousin until I read the comment section. :/
