They say good things come to those who wait.

So starting with volume 15, we’re reading one chapter per week.

This should put us on pace to finish volume 15 around when volume 16 is released.

Only time will tell if the wait really brings good things.

I sure don’t know whether it will.

After all, since I started reading this series before it first appeared in ABBC, and because I’ve traditionally read each volume in one or two sittings, this will be my first time first reading the chapters alongside everyone else!

---

I’ll post the usual “this week’s chapter” post tomorrow, as per usual.

Until then, here’s the girl who’s been showing up a lot recently.

(She made it onto a volume cover this time!)

[ChristopherFritz]

This week we start the volume off with Chapter 188.

I think this is only the second time I’ve encountered a メイドカフェ in manga. (The first being volume 5 of アオハライド.)

Story comments

Oh snap. Maki knows about Rin’s feelings! Interesting development.

[fyrember]

I find it funny that she realizes with a glance and it takes the other characters ages and it being literally told to them to notice hahaha

Yeah I don’t know what’s up with that girl, clearly the OTP is Rin x Ayumu, I hate it when mangakas put in other love interests just to bring tension lol

[ChristopherFritz]

We’re on chapter 189 this week. The festival continues!

[MrGeneric]

Spoilers

Seems Ayumu and this new girl have great chemistry. Rin better watch out!

[ChristopherFritz]

Let’s keep those festivities going finish off those festivities this week with chapter 190!

[ChristopherFritz]

We’re making our way along with chapter 191 this week!

Story comments

Poor Urushi. Their feelings are mutual, but Ayumu is so much less easily embarrassed than she is. She returned the gesture of getting right up in his face, and he was completely unphased

[fyrember]

Shocker

She’s tired of ur shit my dude

Also I just realized she probably didn’t see the expression he made

[ChristopherFritz]

Our greatly-missed heroine returns for some shopping this week in chapter 192.

[ChristopherFritz]

This week it’s chapter 193.

Just to be safe, please do not read this one in a public or workplace setting.

Story comments

Takeru had no idea what he was signing up for when he started dating Sakurako

[fyrember]

That image made me go into the への rabbit hole. You think you understand something and then they throw you a curveball, Japanese am i right?

Also why is it always the quiet ones the ones that are the freakiest?

[ChristopherFritz]

メリークリスマス！ This week it’s chapter 194.

Were you able to correctly guess what the gift would be?

(Random on-topic AI-generated artwork.)

[aamunoz]

Story comments

I found it surprising that the Christmas date was pretty much not featured at all. But I guess the focus of the chapter was them getting each other the same gift, so it had to skip over the actual date to keep a reasonable length.

[ChristopherFritz]

Things are really cooling down for our cast this week in chapter 195.

[aamunoz]

Story comments

I feel like Ayumu is running out of time. If he doesn’t get moving, Urushi is going to ask him out first!

[fyrember]

I can’t believe they could publish this without getting censored. WARNING: SUPER NSFW
