Guidelines When to add an entry If you are reasonably confident of the word itself and the appropriate translation for the context, go for it! If you are unsure of a word’s meaning, please feel free to add it, but highlight the row and write…
Please read the guidelines on the first page before adding any words.
Discussion Guidelines
Spoiler Courtesy
Please follow these rules to avoid inadvertent ネタバレ. If you’re unsure whether something should have a spoiler tag, err on the side of using one.
- Any potential spoiler for the current week’s reading need only be covered by a spoiler tag. Predictions and conjecture made by somebody who has not read ahead still falls into this category.
- Any potential spoilers for external sources need to be covered by a spoiler tag and include a label (outside of the spoiler tag) of what might be spoiled. These include but are not limited to: other book club picks, other books, games, movies, anime, etc. I recommend also tagging the severity of the spoiler (for example, I may still look at minor spoilers for something that I don’t intend to read soon).
- Any information from later in the book than the current week’s reading (including trigger warnings that haven’t yet manifested) needs to be hidden by spoiler tags and labeled as coming from later sections.
Instructions for Spoiler Tags
Posting Advice
- When asking for help, please mention the page number, and check before posting that your question hasn’t already been asked. As the threads get longer, it becomes more convenient to use the Search function, which is located in the upper right corner of the forum. It is the magnifying glass which is near your profile picture! The best way to search is usually to type part of the sentence you are confused about, and select “in this topic”. This will show you all posts within the current thread which has that string of text.
- Be sure to join the conversation! It’s fun, and it’s what keeps these book clubs lively! There’s no such thing as a stupid question! We are all learning here, and if the question has crossed your mind, there’s a very good chance it has crossed somebody else’s also! Asking and answering questions is a great learning opportunity for everyone involved, so never hesitate to do so!

I just got back from Korea, and am going on a business trip today! I’ll be reading Nozaki on the train there, excited to begin this volume! Can’t wait to hear what you all think!

I really enjoyed the chapters for this week!
For chapter 51, it was super easy for me to follow, and Waka is kinsd of a himbo and its hilarious. He was almost Mikoshiba-esque this chapter!
52 was also really fun, but difficult for me to fully understand. I have a hard time following the video game episodes sometimes, and I think I need to go back later this week and try to breakdown what was happening in more detail so I can understand.
Overall, great chapters! Can’t wait to see what y’all thought!

Just finished chapter 52 today!!
This was one of my favorite panels/jokes
[/spoiler]The build up to it was SO perfect haha[/spoiler]
I really liked chapter 51, evil eyepatch Waka was hilarious! I don’t remember that from the anime, maybe we’re past what the anime covered now. But I really hope they bring that joke back
I agree, it took me a little longer to read the video game panels. The main thing I am still stumped on is the joke on the extra panel after the chapter when sakura goes
「もう一声！！」Nozakiたち：「なにが？！」
Looking forward to the next chapters!

Agreed both on the excellent joke you mentioned and for the confusing part of chapter 52! I didn’t get the chance to look at it since I caught the flu!

One of my favorite running jokes! I love who they repeat the scene from Ryousuke’s perspective and its so easy to see how he misinterpreted it. That and the panel where Ryousuke realizes he fucked up and asks Nozaki to sit down is gold!
For the last panel in the first Omake that you posted, I remember that respond vividly frmo when I read it in English that I knew what Chiyo was going to say but it burned even worse this time!
Great classic chapter with plenty of misunderstandings!

Great chapters this week!
55
Love any chapter with Mayu in it, but wow this chapter just reminds me that if Chiyo was a guy this type of behavior would be taken MUCH differently! Still solid and we get to see Chiyo take a step closer in Nozaki’s life (I guess lol)

Back when I read in English, Seo/Waka weren’t my favorite, but I absolutely love reading them now. Not sure if I appreciate the joke’s and their simplicity in Japanese more or if I’ve just changed as a person haha. Had one of my favorite panels of the series so far!
Low quality cause I’m a paperback reader, but gosh I would love to have this image for reactions cause I think its perfect! (I anyone wants to screenshot and share I would be grateful!
Can’t wait to hear what y’all think!!

Another set of great chapters!

As a fan of anything detailing the manga industry, a great chapter! I wonder how much Tsubaki-sensei is portraying what she thinks her old editorial department was up to behind the scenes (back when she was making Ore-Sama Teacher for Hana to Yume.
And @2OC3aOdKgwSGlxfz Sakura always knows when her crush is thinking about her rival hahaha.
58
Awwww, precious Mikoshiba really is bad with girls, deperate enough to ask Seo of all people to help him avoid additional female contact. And Waka is a little dummy. Great Miko moments with asking Sakura for help with the choir club, and Miko and Kashima’s ‘date’ 
My other favorite panel is the Chorus Club trying to hold Seo down, one of the most intense panels in the manga lolol.

I still liked chapter 57, but I really liked 58!! Perfect mix of absolutely hilarious and then also a really sincere moment. Chefs kiss
