A path that's just a little bit lonely
A path that's just a little bit lonely
Bye bye Akari-chan!
Yeah
Bye byyyyyye
Sign: Nanamori Elementary
...
Akari!
Wah!?
Yui-chan!?
It's been a bit, hasn't it?
I'm so glad
I was just thinking about you guys.
Us too, without you things feel off.
Really?
What's Kyouko-chan doing today?
She's at a club.
Ah, I see
She was in the wind ensemble, right?
I want to see Kyouko-chan too.
I get it.
How's school going for you?
It's fun.
Was it ever explained why Akari cut her hair? The outfit she has in here is also a lot more modest than what she was wearing in the first episode/chapter of the series. This actually looks like a uniform, but it's different from the ones Hanako and them wear in Oomuroke.
But I go a different direction on my way home
Since you and Kyouko-chan graduated.
It's kind of lonely by myself.
I see
We all used to run home together this way, huh
Kyouko-chan would fall down a lot.
Yeah, yeah
Why was it that we ran?
Do you remember?
If you don't go down this path quickly, monsters'll appear!
That's what you said.
Eh!? Did I?
There were a lot of other rules we set up too.
Like about crossing those white lines.
Or about saying hi to the doggy at the house over there while going home!
Ah
I guess that's true.
It was really fun.
Yeah
It feels nostalgic, huh?
...that's right
It's already become "nostalgic".
Me and Kyouko, you know
Do nothing but talk about you every day
Huh?
About what kinds of things we want to do
When you start middle school next year
Where we want to go together
Things like that.
We just feel like it'll be so much fun.
Though next year is still some time from now.
...
Huh!?
Wh-what's wrong?
When you and Kyouko-chan left
I
I couldn't do anything but
Remember things from the past
Like "that time was so fun" or "we did that"
Akari...
Thinking about how you two
Are experiencing the future (TN: I'm unclear of who the subject is supposed to be here. It's possible Akari's talking about seeing/experiencing the future through watching Yui and Kyouko)
Cheers me up!!
Huh!?
Akari!?
Kyouko-chan!
Uooooh
It's Akari
I'm glad to see
...you're doing well
That was a hard fall
Such a nostalgic scene.
It's been a while since we went home together.
I'm glad
Your club already ended?
That's early today.
I quit
Huh!?
I can't even imagine Kyouko in the wind ensemble. What instrument did she play?
Kyouko-senpai
We're gonna leave you behind
Hold on, wait for me!
The board game we played today was fun, huh?
Right!?
We didn't play it enough.
Akari!
Be on my team tomorrow
Okay!
Kyaa!
That means me and Yui-senpai will be married!
I mean
Will be a team!
What kind of slip up is that? (TN: Kekkon and chiimu/team sound nothing alike even in Japanese)
You guys have some time after this?
Let's hang out some more at Yui's place.
Okay
I guess I have to
Yay!
Now that that's settled, let's hurry!
Hey, wait!
Let's run to Yui's place
You're gonna fall!
Akari
What's up?
Nothing
Just thinking about how happy I am.
What's with that
(Ehehe)
C'mon
Let's go too
Yeah!
Side Text: Plenty of memories. Plenty of time from now on.
And last page. No Akari bullying for you.
I think she cut her hair because Yui cut her hair when she entered middleschool so it was to be like her.
Thanks for the dump
Akari chan…
Lethal dose of cuteness
thanks anon
No Akari bullying for you
Until next chapter that is
Until next chapter that is
With a look of melancholy that the lack of presence brings
Akari focused chapters are the best thanks for dumping.
Been alot of Akarin in the manga this year!
As expected of the main character.
I doubt that's going to last though
Thanks for the translation! Cute Akarin chapter
I feel like the Akari bullying was mainly created by the anime? Honestly there was never a time in the manga where I felt it was too harsh like it was in season 1. So don’t blame namori, blame the asshole director.
Japanese elementary school kids don't tend to wear uniforms, they must go to a posh school
There some moments early on in the manga tho
Wouldnt consider Misaki posh or well off in the slightest
Yui and Akari are meant for each other
She's a scholarship kid
Does she get good grades?
Which is sad because they hardly see each other due to Akari's lack of presence and Kyouko and Chinatsu fighting over Yui
Built for rough, nonconsensual sex.
Yui and Akari are meant for each other and me
Yui=wife and Akari=daughter would be ideal
Yeah, I know. And in the first episode of the anime she had clothes that weren't a uniform, but here the clothes she has on looks like a uniform. Just a weird inconsistency, or maybe it isn't a uniform but just clothes that look like it.
Not an uniform, just a shirt and a dress.
O-of course!
Looks like Akane dressed her
Namori's fashion sense evolved, she drew a long dress on Akari in the latest chapter because she knows it's cuter. That's all there is to it.
It is not an uniform and it is pretty consistent with Akari's usual fashion style.
Also, thats not the original chapter.
I wouldn't have minded if Akari kept her long hair (and stayed flat-chested of course, pic unrelated but the closest I could find)
Yeah, you can tell that because of the R
Rereading the early chapters, I really forgot how horny Namori was back in the day.
She is definitely more subtle about her leg fetish nowadays
And when was the last time someone got groped?
pantyhose *sigh*
Yui pantsu~
Thanks for all the hard work TL anon.
Furugana
Has YY always had these or is this new?
I don't think any manga will have no furigana. But series aimed at an older audience will have less, typically only for names and some lesser known words. You can see that there's a lot of kanji in Yuru Yuri that doesn't have furigana.
That being said, I've read some manga that will have furigana for every kanji in a speech bubble but that also has an abundance of handwritten text outside of bubbles with no furigana that isn't any less difficult to read. Kind of makes me rethink the "furigana is to help younger people know the words" thing since it makes no sense in that context.
Did Namori redo the early chapters?
I remember her style changed significantly since then, as evident in this comparison.
She redid the first chapter or so in an extra booklet to match the anime's first episode. That's all I'm aware that was done like that. For instance Yui is the pervert in the manga's first chapter and Kyouko seems closer to her original crybaby demeanor while in the anime Kyouko's the pervert and Yui's more stoic.
She redid the first couple chapters for one of the anniversaries.
Maybe I'm remembering it wrong. But didn't Yui and Kyouko start the club for the sake of having more time to hang out with Akari once she got into their school?
But, due to that, the moments they do have together are even sweeter.
Kinda. The amusement club exists for the sake of Akari but it is also not a real club, they are just squatting in the tea ceremony club.
The redo was more than 10 years ago
