I read the previews for プライドにキス, which I saw recced on tumblr, and 花咲く恋がふってくる by the same mangaka, as well as ディノサン: Dinosaurs Sanctuary, which was advertised on a paper included inside one of the volumes of 極主夫道 that I got yesterday. Also finally 異刻メモワール, which has been open on my tablet for ages.
Tired again today (though it was mostly because I made the bad decision of of getting an iced chai, which I then had to down within the span of like 5 min so it wouldn’t get too watered down to be edible. So sleepy…), so I only read ch 59-61 of HQ. Only 1 more left this vol, augh
I realized today that aside from using 僕, Tsukishima also uses 君, rather than お前 like all the other guys thus far (actually, I think Take-chan uses 君 too?). Even though it’s somewhat surprising, it does fit him… (Though, 僕 and 君 are on the same level of politeness, aren’t they? So looking back, him using 君 isn’t surprising except in the way that discovering that he uses 僕 was surprising, if that makes sense.)
loooool I forgot it was this match where Kageyama tries to compliment Tsukki and says “knife” instead of “nice.” Though here it’s more like “nuff;” I’ll have to pay attention to the audio next time I watch the anime, since I’m pretty sure the subs say “knife.”
(actually good lighting for once because I took it in the car)
Also, it’s sad that Tsukki doesn’t know how to react to people caring about him or complimenting him, but at the same time it’s hilarious watching him flounder lmao (like with Suga in an earlier chapter? Good stuff). Anyway, I adore him. (Kageyama, too.)
