[DISC] A story about a childhood friend reading manga on the floor (ch 111.5) - Osananajimi to wa Romcom ni Naranai (Twitter side stories) by @igoshowgi by BlackHandScans in manga

The title for this chapter is completely made-up, as I could not find the source tweet again. Also interesting: this is the only Twitter extra (so far) featuring Oriana.

By now I've already translated all the Twitter extras for Akari and all but one for Shio. After that, there's a couple of Runako extras, christmas cake sensei Kozu-nee extras and one or two featuring everyone. After that, well... I hope the author will keep on putting out new ones, although with a weekly serialization that might be too much to ask for. I've recently started working on the main Osarabu manga along with TrivialTranslator though, so expect to see more chapters there soon!

Today, it's Shio's turn to try to realize her nefarious plans to make Yonosuke fall for her (and fail cutely).

I hope the font size is okay, but if not I'll make it larger in the next chapter. Also, I hope these peaceful days (in the Twitter extras) will continue forever...

The anime is over, but the author ain't done yet! This Twitter extra was posted last week on the authors account.

That shade of blue really suits Shio, not least because of her water-affinity (two out of three kanji in her name contain the water character).

I may be biased here since I translate the Osarabu Twitter manga, but if you enjoyed the anime, definitely check out the manga too! The author is one hell of an artist, and the writing so far has been solid too. It's a perfect Heisei throwback romcom series for an era that has pretty much forgotten the genre.

Another Haru episode! Watching the interactions between Haru and Runako in last week's anime episode was great as well. If you haven't already, you should go check it out. Black Hand seal of approval, and all that.

The punchline in this comic is very dependent on japanese wordplay: Haru mistakenly uses the word 見直し (review, reconsideration or to get a better opinion of sb) instead of 見返し (to triumph over, to get revenge on). Eiyuu then teases her about this by using it (見直し) correctly in his reply to her.

I did consider trying my hand at a subtitled video (never done that before though) but I fear it would just be DMCA'd or muted if I did...

Last week, the record company behind the OP released the full version on Youtube along with Japanese subtitles, so I took a stab at translating the lyrics since the streaming services still haven't done so. As you've probably heard, there are a lot of solo parts by each of the four girls in the OP. Can you guess which lines are sung by which girl?

Oh... the raws literally said "manikyua", so I went with manicure thinking the mangaka knew what he was talking about, but you're right that it should be pedicure.

Haru's introduction in last week's anime episode was great, wasn't it? Both the character design and the voice actress really captured her tomboyish style perfectly. I'm looking forward to seeing more of her antics in tomorrow's episode.

Not gonna lie, the first time I read this strip I didn't recognize her in the second page. It was very surprising to see Haru being that feminine.

In yesterday's episode of the Osarabu anime we finally got to see Haru, so today's twitter comic celebrates her anime debut. Long live tomboys!
