It’s an abbreviated way of counting… imagine something like ひとつ、ふたつ、みっつ and so on. It’s not particularly linked to the つ counter, I believe…

I completely blanked those as the start of counter words… 
I knew it was going to be something obvious. Thank you so much!

I gave the intro chapter a try when the book club first started and couldn’t make much sense of it. But I recently started reading again, after having learned a lot more grammar, and I’m slowly catching up!
I’m finishing volume 5 and I’ve already read 6, so I am setting myself the goal of catching up before the end of this thread!

Without the context this is even harder to recognize, I would think it was just her name or something hahaha.
I guess it’s a counting sheep to sleep kinda thing?

It absolutely was!
Thinking back on it, I actually think I didn’t realize what it meant until I saw it in another series (Mitsuboshi Colors? Yotsuba?) and then I had went back and checked this story because I remembered it from there.
The main character of the story counts a lot of sheep as she tries to get to sleep each night.

Another week, another chapter of Takagi-san! Seems like there might be some 教科書 sharing going on in this chapter. Should be loads of opportunities for Nishikata to get teased! Looking forward to it!
Are you planning on reading with us this week?
- I will be reading along!
- I’ve already read it!
- I will catch up later!
- I won’t be reading (anymore)

Hi there,
I’m pleased to be joining this book club ! I’m a beginner learner but I’m a fan of Karakai Jouzu no Tagagi-san Series and I’ve already watch the anime so even though I’m not used to read japanese, I have a fairly good understanding of the dynamics between the different characters.
I’m happy to have Takagi and Nishikata as my first Manga in original Japanese =D
I will try to read along and catch up the 6 previous Volume in the mean time !

Takagi is her own worst enemy sometimes, Nishikata had almost cracked the code!

I’m melting 
As of yet, the sequel to this chapter is an Anime original, I don’t know if it will ever be featured in the manga
I sure hope it will, the 夏祭り was really the Highlight of season 2
Has anyone seen it ?

Unfortunately, since Takagi moved to a different streaming service for season 2, I never saw it. Actually, I only saw season 1 when it first came out, so it’s been so many years, I don’t remember it clearly. So at some point, I stopped being sure whether we were still in the events of the first season or not 
There has been unfamiliar stuff happening for a while now, but I was never sure because (anime season 1 spoilers) I clearly remember Nishikata thanking Takagi about something and her being super happy in her room at the end of the season, and I feel like we haven’t seen that in the manga yet.
So I was never sure if the stuff we were reading was actually past season 1, or if I was just not remembering.
