>>265716659
Great story time, thanks OP
Why is Japan so obsessed with the concept of childhood friends?
>>265719796I think it has to do with the tight social circles in japanese culture. Often the people that you are very close to outside of family is often a much shorter list than in other cultures and those relationships carry more weight.
>>265527271
>>265693382I want to become childhood friends with Honami-chan
>>265720571young-adulthood friends?
>>265719796It's a nice concept, to be fair. Although they make her lose all the time...
>>265693382!!!
>>265720352Danger!
>>265720352>the condom broke!
>>265719577So happy. I wish I could feel like that again.
>>265729288Fuck that, get a mohawk.
>>265691555I wanna go!
One more day.
>>265732684Time flies when you're childhood friending.
>>265733378You have to make up for lost time after all.

>>265770316Based. No JC left unpaired hopefully.Place your bets on what the lucky boy is gonna be like.
>>265770316I'm curious if there will be any spin to it or just something straightforward.
>>265770514Maybe the goal is to make her popular.
>>265770316I demand 100 more Mai chapters as compensation

Is it time?
>>265770316Why is she so smug?
It's that time.Tonight we're wrapping up Volume 9 with two bonus chapters Volume 9 Chapter 88.5 - Bonus 1: After Chapter 82
[END CHAPTER 88.5]
Volume 9 Chapter 88.6 - Bonus 2: Thanks to Tomoka
[END CHAPTER 88.6]
Now starting Volume 10. Since we are now ahead of the volume release we'll be missing the end of chapter omakes. Once the volume comes out I will post them.
Volume 10 Chapter 89: Childhood Friend and Lip Balm
>>265800452Somebody needs to stop her
>>265800354Those lips...
>>265800230Associating with hussies...
>>265800354Kouhei is ascending to the status of a lipsfag
>>265800605This.. IS GOOD!
[END CHAPTER 89]
Volume 10 Chapter 90 - Childhood Friend and Valentine's Day
>>265800662The price of hesitation.
>>265800452Must not... get stiff
>>265800822Love that pettiness.
>>265800952It tastes just like regular chocolate
[END CHAPTER 90]This chapter had me in a translation dilemma. I considered translating "honmei" and "giri" as "home-made" and "store-bought". That bothered me because it's not accurate, but it is often done that way to be more digestible to a Western audience. I also considered "romantic" and "obligation", but I don't like the black and white connotations of those words. So I left it as "honmei" and "giri". Next chapter(s) next week: Tuesday Apr 30 around 22:00 NY time. Hope to see you then. >>265770316Just when I thought I was getting caught up Obiya-sensai gives me more work to do. Well, that's ok because I love Nono.
>>265801047Thanks OP!
>>265801047Thanks OP. Honmei and giri is fine to me.
>>265800954Stop it Kouhei, being dense is glasses kun's schtick>>265801047>That last frameso dramaticthat said, I think you did well with "homei" and "giri" with the tl note, it's soulfulromantic and obligation is also correct but changing obligation to friendhip wouldn't be that bad eitherHonmeis aren't always homemade and giris aren't always store bought though, so that one is the only wrong one
>>265801047Thanks. Honmei and giri is fine, this is /a/, this stuff is common knowledge.
Tomoka is handsy with the boys
>>265800741It´s really cute how neither of the two realized she was talking about them, but instead got worried about someone else giving the boys romantic chocolate.
>>265800483
>>265800281>>265800308Is this ntr

>>265800768Death to the interloper. Just because you facilitated a cute moment between Aida and Kaede doesn't mean want to see your stupid face.
>>265804235>Death to the interloper.She is going to marry Nono in the spinoff
>>265804366Nono is for Tomoka.
>>265800483This little whore
>>265805363Tomoka is for everyone
>>265800178Mature people don't go out of their way to say they're mature...
>>265800365I'm curious how many times a day he faps to the thought of Kaede.
>>265800483I've said once and I'll say it again, Kouhei is an absolute CHAD.
>>265805943As often as she schlicks to himAdvanced childhood friends masturbate to eachother, it's completly normal
>>265800638Nonsense, lots of things are excusable if you're both childhood friends:>going to the mall together is okay>going to the movies together is okay>eating at a family restaurant together is okay>wearing couple shirts is okay>having sleepovers is okay>bathing together is okay>spending the night at a hot springs inn is okay>taking each others virginities is okay>getting married is okay>starting a family is okay
>>265806188Is there even a thing that isn't excusable to do as childhood friends?
>>265807172holding hands in public
>>265801047Thank you for all your efforts OP. Really appreciate it.
>>265807185That's never ok.
>>265808794I bet these two will hold hands in public before marriage!
>>265807185Ah, so that's why they hid the act on the previous chapter.
>>265800387Wow he's literally me.
>>265800483I love this little shit stirrer like you wouldn't believe.
Mark my words, Nono's spinoff manga will mark the permanent removal of the lesbian kouhai
>>265812640Tomoka my beloved.
>>265800129Ah, another highly exploitable panel. Delightful.
>>265800605

>>265800978For a moment I forgot and thought she had an extendable cyborg arm.
>>265819669What are you talking about? She does have an extendable cyborg arm. She used it extensively in the second tournament arc.
>>265800768Cute.
>>265813082Or maybe she'll become more important.
>>265526606thanks op
>>265817805That a lot of childhood friends...
>>265828545kaede who had no friends because she moved around so much now has many friends I'm not crying
>>265830353It's the rain. Must be getting in our eyes.
>>265800129Cute bee!
>>265809090Society is crumbling before our eyes.
>>265801047Thank you, OP.>So I left it as "honmei" and "giri". I think that you made the right decision.
See you guys next week
>thread is still up one week laterIs this manga actually that popular here, or is it just the OP and/or dedicated anons necrobumping it? I have no idea how this storytime out of all of them somehow managed to get threads that last this long.
>>265836803It's a handful of anons necrobumping. Not that I mind, I like this manga
necrobump
>>265836803Dedicated following, of course thanks tl anon and based Maibro.
>>265840270And which one of you will take it from me?
>>265841310Honami is desperate enough, I think.
>>265843518Fuck Yeah! C'mere onee-chan!
>>265812640>>265844822Bean head
>>265526606Thank OP
>>265836803A little bit of both.
>>265817805
>>265847566Then how did this manga of all storytimes get such a dedicated fanbase? The guy who did Aho-Girl at least was doing a chain that developed a fanbase over time, but I don't think the OP of this one has done other manga before has he?
>>265800605Such PRESSUREwwyd anons?
>>265800822>I'm going to save and give them back to herfucking rude, I love it
>>265848317Kaede is just that lovable. I also think that dorky romcom like this tends to attract more anon.
>>265848317People really, really liked the premise. I guess you weren't here for the daily.
>>265526606I just realized i can't find a bunch of chapters on the usual sources and now they are on deader than dead threads too. Where did you get them all, op?
>>265849678>you weren't here for the daily.I thought this was the Daily
>>265849967The daily ended once we got caught up to the official release. It's now a weekly.>>265527357
>>265849956They're all in the archives see >>265527357Also OP is posting new chapters on MD and filling in the missing ones too
>>265836803Used to average 100-135 IP's back when the counter was a thing.
>>265850741Uh oh he's fucked now.
>>265850741What CF crime did he commit?
>>265850419Why did they take it away?
>>265852133He broke the terms of the Childhood Friend Agreement he verbally accepted.
>>265527219dude just got sleevejob'd
>>265858000I wish that were me...
>>265860037The girls or the boy?
>>265854160too much faggotry around it, I guess?
>>265850350the archive interface sucks. I want to download the chapters
>>265861178Anon-kun is just as clueless as ever, I see. You really can't get anything done without me, huh. Just go to Nyaa, you dummy.
>>265860074yes
>>265853178
>>265861874Shrimp is pretty verstatile.
>>265861874I wonder what Kaede would like for White Day.
>>265860115If anything it was the answer to a lot of faggotry. I don't know how it worked on the crazier boards though.
>>265849956Get out of here, kaiju!
