In the wake of the recent sad news I thought it would be appropriate to give this story an honest read.The plan is to a few chapters every day, less than a volume, but still get this wrapped up within January rather than stretch it out to, like, AugustSo let's find out together what it's really like having a little sisterBonus Story: At the Motoba's after the Beach
I noticed the other day that I hadn't been linking to previous threads>>285121468
>>285188699Thanks for posting, OP
He almost had it
It's her! In the flesh!:(
Following the pattern; Ebina and Kanau must be siblings!
Spoilers
>>285188699Good timing.
Chapter 72: Umaru & the New Game
>>285188754>I noticed the other day that I hadn't been linking to previous threadsI hadn't read one of your Storytime's in a while so I thought you just changed your format.
>>285189176Nah, just an idiot
Chapter 73: Umaru & the Hot Day
>>285188893Ohhh...
I also got fat at some point
Chapter 74: Umaru & Earpicks
>>285188973The gang is all here.
I just use q-tips like an animal
Chapter 75: Umaru & the Dating Sim
>>285189482Japanese (and I think a lot of east asians) have earwax that tends to clump and solidify requiring it to be picked out with something, rather than softer earwax that can be wiped away with q-tips. So whenever this stuff comes up in animanga it's because of that.
So I guess Alex can morph his pupils
>>285188973Now's not the time to go flying like an airplane
Chapter 76: Umaru Skips School
>>285188754Oh no, she's sex
Chapter 77: Umaru & Gossip
>>285188973When is he adding Ebina?
>>285144172little sisters shouldn't be this cute
>>285189713You can't?
Chapter 78: Umaru & Halloween>>285190044I mean, like, kinda?The cross shape is out of reach
>>285189836>Worrying TSFanons...
>>285188754Bomba's mom looks like Taihei, wtf
>>285190008She really is a sweet girl.
Chapter 79: Umaru & Cleaning
Okay oniichan, you can beat this this bad habit out of herUse violenceThat's a real pet peeve of mine
>Digimono WorldBased
That's about enough Umaru for one dayTune in tomorrow for the next tournament arc!
>>285189694this is adorable lmao.
>>285188847she is so fucking flat man... So hot!
>>285190124I think a number of anons would take Kirie up on her offer.
>>285190205I'd prefer it if Taihei didn't have that kind of alter ego.
>>285189836Fuck all the anons that kept me away from this manga by saying that Umaru is an irredeemable little brat. Pages like this, the times she is considerate to her friends, and moments of affection to her brother show that under her slacker exterior she is a sweet teenage girl with a heart of gold.
>>285190434Umaru....NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Ebina > Sylphin > Umaru > Kirie
>>285190454JIBAN WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOF
>>285189576Umaru...
>>285189379I want to feed Ebina
>>285189713That's Mangekyou Sharingan for you
I wonder if basing his characters off his family was a mistake? I kind of got that feeling when I heard a later character drawn at the time was literally his daughter.
>>285189482>>285189667I was told you're not really supposed to stick anything in your ears at all because you risk pushing earwax father in, which can lead to impaction.But, my ears also produce way too much wax, so I use little rubber ball thingy to scoot lukewarm water into my ears. If they're pretty bad, you use hydrogen peroxide first, then spray the lukewarm water a few days later.But nothing beats getting a GP to use a water pick/irrigation. You feel like you have super hearing withy how sensitive they become. Like you'll become very aware of the rustling of your own clothes sensitive.
>>285189399missing ebina
>>285192517Uhhhhhh, only sibling pairs count as part of the gang.
>>285190106https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9C0F3j-1tY
>>285192241Different manga
>>285190542Thanks for the dump Magister.
>>285192245This is all very true. I use earplugs daily at work and over time it slowly compresses the canal and plugs it up with just wax. Earlier this year I ended up showing noticeable hearing loss on an audiology test, but after my doc flushed my ears with hydrogen peroxide my results went back to normal. It's genuinely surprising how much can build up in there over time.And yes, you're not supposed to use q-tips to clean. But basically everyone does, docs and other health professionals included, so it's just accepted as something people do.
>>285189941When Ebina gets an oniichan of her own.
>>285189482I used to get earwax so bad that I'd slowly go deaf over the year until I went to a doctor to clean them.Now I just have a spray bottle that I use every month or so.
>>285188771>the "bad man" they imagine Kirie with is literally just Alex>>285189591>Kirie is now in the same room as AlexMy misunderstanding senses are tingling...
>>285189379An angel cries when a girl loses weight>I also got fat at some pointSame... I need to start doing cardio
>>285189417Wait, Japs REUSE ear cleaners? Vile
>>285189576What did the author (and Umaru) mean by this?
>>285189576>>285194909she's trying to send hints to Taihei
>>285189667I'm Chinese and my earwax is indeed dry; flaky or powdery.I just gently scrape the walls of my ear canal with an earpick and it easily removes the dry earwax
>>285190346TSFeet
>>285192245You're not supposed to use Q-tips because people are retarded and do it wrong.What most people do is place the Q-tip at the opening of the ear canal and then shove inwards, roll it about a bit, and then drag it out. This is 100% the wrong way to do it, and this is the primary reason why using Q-tips leads to impaction and shit because you're literally just shoving a bunch of it inside until it piles up and compacts so hard that it's solid rock and then you have to go to the hospital. Since trying to teach people how to not fuck it up is too hard, they just gave up and said "don't do it" which honestly isn't that bad of advice. The wax doesn't just sit in your ear and comes out eventually barring special cases, and your fingernail is usually good enough. But people suck at using their fingernail too and it also leads to impaction because they do it wrong in the same way as they do Q-tips wrong. Also a lot of people don't wash their fingernails when they stick it in their ears (or in general) which is gross and leads to infection too. Which is why people are told don't use fingernails either.When asian people use it, they stick it in through the middle, land on the point they want to scrape, and then scrape outwards. This habit is also trained in moments like here when people do it for others because the ear canal is oriented vertically at the point so doing it wrong means the earwax just falls straight down into the void and can't be recovered. So they don't have as much impaction issues. They just have more stabbing issues because they stick it in too far or get bumped while scraping and then it punches through the eardrum if they were too close at the time. Also irration and such from scraping too frequently.
>>285189229FGO and Genshin took this genre over
>>285189379husband and wife
So if Taihei and Umaru are self-inserts for the author and his sister, does that mean he had a thing with his sister's friend?
>>285190262>Grape juiceI see
>>285189755I like this cover.

>>285202494I should look for one of those in jap stores, that scoop looks really useful.
>>285206190It's useful for the kind of earwax they have.

>>285242827>>285242862I wonder if this spawned a wave of incest fanart. Actually, I genuinely don't know how much r34 Umaru has.
>>285191419Early manga umaru IS that bad.
Go hug your sister while you can...
>>285241871Volume 6 already? If I remember right, an anon told me this was around the time when his little sister got diagnosed with an incurable disease and got hospitalized. >>285242421No... Oh god no...

>>285189229A rare retarded Taihei moment.
>>285243143Umaru is not for lewd.
>>285241606
>>285209471I am 100% asian (I doubt we can find any european gene in my body even if we trace back for more than 1000 years) and I had a ridiculous doctor who told me I shouldn't use an ear pick and if I must, I should use the disposable cotton things because ear wax naturally ends up in the mouth and disappear.I ignored him, my brother didin't. He ended up with clogged ear wax because he was pushing the hard ear wax in his ear to the point that he wasn't able to hear very well. He went to the doctor and that one told him that he needed more tests because he couldn't figure out what it was.I checked his ear, saw that huge amount of ear wax and spent like half an hour cleaning his ears. He recovered his hearing.Those reusable wooden earpicks are useful for people like us.
>>285242458>he's working IT for not-Syscolmao of course
>>285242634But what about the perishable meals????
>>285241502this used to happen a lot too at sports stadiums, but nowadays the networks in major cities (plus public wifi) are strong enough now that it doesn't blink when 80k+ people try to use their phone.

>>285244742Not gonna lie, UMR is very lewdable
>>285246128But she's actually just a qt jk. And ook at how flexible she is!
>>285246233>>285246159She's basically Yotsuba.
>>285241173Come to think of it, where is their dad?The story is heavily implying that their mom is dead and Umaru reminds Taihei of her, but their dad hasn't even been mentioned I think.
>>285241598>basement dwellerI have that shirt.

>>285246521I don't think Whatsapp or social networks on phones were a thing at that timeThe manga from 2013? or so
>>285246521Never heard of cellular network congestion during major natural disasters where everyone's trying to message family and friends?
>>285241822Holding hands with Onigawara Kimiko
>>285246926It used to be more common. Of course zoomers do not remember.
>>285245807Crackship sank by US Navy
>>285247020It's the same innocent and wholesome humor.
>>285242002Did they fuck?
>>285242699I can personally attest that grilled eel is fucking delicious. It cooks like a really fatty fish but it tastes so much different. Once you start grilling, you can see the fat glistening and melting off the fish. You don't want to over-grill it lest all the juices drip out and it becomes a dried husk. Nothing wrong with dried eel too but if you're grilling a fresh eel, you gotta enjoy it at its peak where the whole thing's cooked, fat is dripping, and the edges and skin side are nice and crispy. Don't even really need seasonings or sauce for it because it's just that good. Most of what you see outside of Japan is probably eel drenched in teriyaki sauce but I can tell you that it's completely optional. Nothing wrong with teriyaki sauce eel but it's different without.Most people don't believe me when I tell them because they think eels are gross.
>>285242689How much does it cost to get from Tokyo to Hamamatsu? Could Umaru afford to do it with just 20,000 yen?
>>285247480nah just a quick pafu pafu
>>285247814According to Maps even the most expensive trip is 8686 yen one-way so it's definitely doable. Taihei probably also paid for their lunch so she's got at least 5k left over after coming back, which is good enough for a couple of her konbini feasts if she doesn't just buy a new geimu with the money.
