Ugetsu

Just thought we should have a new thread for this chapter.

I'm sure when Sayo gets the translation up we will have a lot to say about it.

Remember when Aoki had that sleepy long cellphone call with Rin? And he said he wanted to show her the sea? There is a landscape early in this chapter that shows the sea, lets us know we are near Aoki's home town. It took me a while to realize that Houin had gone along, I think Watashiya has a generic "pretty blonde" so that Rin, her mother Aki, and Houin all can look rather alike.

In a way the tampon scene -- I think Watashiya thinks kids are reading this and wants to do a little "sex education" just as the teachers are discussing, to make it all clear and normal so the boys won't get all freaked out about menstruation etc. I don't know, it's also possible that it's just another excuse for fan service. But that is not the feeling I get from this, it doesn't strike me as cheesy.

And let's see, when Rin gets into bed with Daisuke -- Watashiya is trying to show how she is growing, her bones are getting long and she's getting taller, but it makes her look so gaunt and thin. In a way she looks more like a child now, stretched out and flat, than she did when she was smaller and rounder.

I am curious about what Daisuke's sister is saying throughout this chapter. I can't make much of it out but when she first meets Houin she calls her "Bouin" which makes it obvious that Daisuke has used that nickname.

Perhaps what happened with Daisuke was similar to what happened a while ago with Reiji...

I don't think the tampon scene was for that purpose but rather to go along with the timeline of them growing up. I did noticed Rin has definitely aged and barely looks more older then when we first saw her. Come to think of it, maybe this chapter is showing the aging and maturing process of the girls. While of course this chapter doesn't go completely along with the story process, it is giving us an update on the characters change in their lifestyle.

Sayo just released the chapter translated in his page. So i guess Rin isn't ready to except anyone else in her and Reiji's life looks like Aoki found another troublesome matter in her life. Aoki's sister was just being curious about Houin with a crush on him. Well all i found interesting was another added problem with Rin which was already mentioned before in the earlier chapters.

So as i said before, nothing new just another fan service display(at least that's how i see it).

-- w -- Aaaaaaaah........I let it out................sorry, this chapter REALLY turned me on....I was on fire......Because I did almost the same thing that Rin done when I was 14, except it was with my cousin Rene, he was 20 years old and pretty handsome, I didn`t get completely naked, I was in my underwear.....And for the chapter itself, you`re right Newnie, a lot of fanservice (my other cousin, chino, is going to have a hell of a time to enjoy this chapter) but still I feel something else, now we have meet Aoki`s family, and now we know more about the issues in the Kokone family, so I think that something will happen, something that will continue the plot where it stopped. Nice chapter tough, and guys, I don`t know if you know, but today, I knew you.......ONE YEAR ago...Newnie and Kikis, you`re the best Cyber friends that a Bounty Hunter like me can have,and I really want to keep the good friendship. I will upload more photos of Rin, and specially, that full body frame of Rin in the page 19 of this chapter, just wait and see, since stoner hasn`t showed is face here for a while, I will post it naked, but with censorship, and you can save it and repost it. Expect further news from me, yours truly:

Um three months ago was our anniversary but it's okay. I feel the same way about you and kikster too, my best cyber friends i had. There's nothing completely wrong with the chapter but K.W. could of at least make the explicit parts appear once in awhile, it's fine but all the time... i don't know what's going though her head. Well anyway take care Samus and i will definitely look forward to you art works( i do miss them you know)

Dark Samus

Three months? I remember that I started to talk with you guys more often in November 20 (Remember the question that I did, about If you were Aoki and about if you would fall in love with a child?) That was the month when I formally knew you both....but is ok, I feel the same way Newnie

Newnonimous

Well yeah but you first appeared in August when you just commented on the chapters and hardly talked to anyone else, then later you started to take interest in me and Kikster when we had a very deep discussion about the manga and you just complemented us on our research and THEN you brought up that question to us. that's how i remembered.

Just a random question but you're latino right?
