Definitely got no references to add to this one. :slightly_smiling_face:

Though page 123, the first panel, I just noticed for the first time that there’s a big ol’ padlock on the door in Marika’s flashback.

Double Pages

The last double page is poorly drawn/aligned.

Other double pages so far have an excuse of almost.

MISSION:05 when? Can’t wait to see who he is.

Whenever the spin-off club starts. :slightly_smiling_face:

They should have definitely thrown it away and try again from scratch! That’ll teach them!

Impressions for this week

Not liking too much that there is more violence in this manga (the slap), but otherwise liking it and looking forward to read more, as others said last week it’s hard to stop after only one chapter, which feels quite short after reading a 4-koma!

Oh I read too much. I didn’t realize that the flashback was for next week. This really flew by.

I also had to check the schedule to check if I should keep reading, was expecting to stop only at “Mission 05”

I made it, better late than never! I got so sidetracked after the Bocchi spinoff club I forgot to check out the main club. I felt indifferent about the first chapter, but once they started the 7 day test I was interested throughout the whole thing

Week five! In which we discover that baby Asumi dresses like an OL.

From the artwork we’ve seen so far I assume that Asumi is going to become an astronaut in the future. If that is the case she doesn’t seem to be cutting it so far as astronaut material with a significant breakdown in this chapter when put under pressure. Perhaps she has other qualities that are ultimately going to mean she does achieve her dream of becoming a rocket driver.

Do you want to know? I was thinking at some point I’d write up a summary of the rest of the story for those who are sufficiently invested to want to know the outcome, but not enough to actually read it, but I haven’t decided exactly when or where I should post it. :slightly_smiling_face:

I somehow bought all 12 volumes a few months ago in a sale so I will be aiming to stay spoiler free!

In English?

Only the English translation has twelve volumes - the original has sixteen.

Oops, you’re right it’s 16 volumes! In Japanese.
