It's Not My Fault I'm Not Popular!

BTW, how long do we keep talking in spoiler mode?

I really like how ]Kuronuma was all shy and uncomfortable with Okada until the conversation veers toward anime VA. Then the monster was unleashed. Despite her stoic bravery (not even Yoshida intimidated her) ,Okada never stood a chance. Nemo also giving this huge final boss vibe here

The spoiler tag markup is [[spoiler:some text]].

I forgot to mention Akane's reaction to Tomoko dropping the Shin chan bomb on her. That seemed to be a punch right in the childhood.

With Akane deciding to apologize to Yoshinori as well, either the group is going to split again in the next chapter, or it might be joined by Hina's and Akane's guy friends.

Thanks

BTW, who is Yoshinori ?

It's the guy with glasses who is frequently shown hanging out with Akane and Hina. His surname is Kiyota, while his given name was revealed in chapter 117.

People have also pointed out how Ucchi and Minami's friends are complete opposites of each other, which the former all being distinct and unique and actually openly friendly, and the latter literally faceless and casually dismissive.

I’d say the post after someone points out scans are out (but doesn’t directly link them).

The previous spoiler marks were mostly because someone was posting about the RAW.

A bit of a bonus, one of the promo stuff for Volume 12 is this little bit of artwork of Tomoko and Yuri together.

I think one of the other online pre-order bonuses was a postcard of Yoshida instead.

We're missing something for Ucchi, and we're golden for the Kyoto Trip girls, I think.

Chapter 130 is out, and it's mostly yuribait.

Also, Masaki's delinquent friends return, and they are surprisingly chill about Masaki attacking them again. Makes me wonder how often Masaki starts fights with them like that.

People on Reddit pointed out that the incident from Tomoko's middle school trip to Disneyland which Tomoko mentions in this chapter was actually shown in a flashback in chapter 79. This in turn makes me wonder how far ahead do the authors plan the story.

What was that thing Asuka shared with Tomoko? Sort of looks like a churro, but could just as well be some similarly-shaped food stuff I've never heard of.

Apparently one of the other pre-order bonuses was of Asuka putting on make-up instead. Hmm.

I think they've done a great job of depicting the interactions between Tomoko and Yuri in this chapter as a lot more subtle than with Tomoko's other friends.

These two just get each other really well.

Asuka has been consistently entertaining for me. She might just exceed Yuu in nice-ness.

When I saw Asuka's reaction to receiving the keychain, I knew exactly what Tomoko would think before I turned the page.

The yuri subtext over the course of the series follows a very steep exponential curve.

"If we hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate."

What subtext? Tomoko was basically thinking “I hope this doesn’t awaken anything.”

There were some complaints of mistranslation of the speech bubbles on the reddit forums. How bad is it , really?

Two short omakes, presumably from volume 12, were posted on the subreddit. One is set after chapter 117 and shows Minami being a jerk as well as Hina thoroughly creeping her out.

The other one is set during the events of chapter 119, and, coupled with that chapter, shows a bit of Yuri's manipulative side. It seems that Yuri first convinced Masaki to go to the class farewell party by telling her that Tomoko is going and they should look after her, or else she might do something weird, and then convinced Tomoko to go by telling her that even Masaki is going.

You know what I find funny? Nemoto very rarely is shown not smiling and the image used for Nemoto on the character page here is her not smiling.

New chapter is out. Yuri's issues with jealousy and possessiveness are not quite resolved, but she does seem to reach some sort of... maybe not understanding with Hina, but at least an acknowledgment of how they are feeling about each other.

Other than that, Masaki is being ridiculously adorable, and I don't even think it's a spoiler that Ucchi returns, because of course she does.

Also, apparently it's a yuri manga now.

Well, the picture is from the anime, which is adapting chapters from before Hina had any meaningful characterization (though I think in the manga she was perpetually smiling from the start).

A conversation in which Tomoko is the socially competent one?

Hard to believe this is still the same series.

"If we hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate."

• Me: "I still don't think this is a Yuri manga."
• Ch.131: "Hold my beer..."

Hatsushiba making that second picture was incredibly dumb, but just plain incredible at the same time.

Next time Tomoko see/thinks of Yuu, Tomoko will probably feel she's been "neglecting" to lust after her since becoming friend with Asuka.

I burst out laughing at his second picture.

Poor Emily. She was so heartbroken she developed facial features. All this to that dam playa Kuroki Tomoko, drooling over some hot girl's thigh and toying with a poor maiden's heart.

"HOW'D YOU LIKE THEM EARS?!?"

Hatsushiba, truly a man after a fandom's heart, especially after how much of an unrepentant you-know-what Minami's being.

And yeah, you can definitely feel how hurt Ucchi was by the whole thing because she didn't fall back on her usual "kimoi kimoi KIMOI" on the reveal. Ouch.

Boy, I can't wait to see the translation of chapter 132 . The RAW is already out and it reintroduced a previous character while setting up some rather pretty interesting future dynamic between her and Tomoko .The future looks promising.

A rough translation is out already.

So the scum test taker from chapter 110 returns, has a name now, seems not to be Megumi Imae's sister contrary to some suspicions (including mine), and has no idea what she's gotten herself into.

Edit - Though it turns out there might be a connection between her and Megumi after all.

Other than that, Mako seems to be Minami's only friend at this point, as Minami doesn't even particularly want to hang out with her old group. And Ucchi is confirmed to be Waldo's daughter.
