Quickly checking the raws, today's episode adapted 109 and rearranged 110 & 113. Next week, 111 and 112.

Those eyes

Saya > Hotaru

Hotaru > Hajime >>>>>> Saya

177 now
I'm just redumping it with better raws.

[It is said that in the yearly sales of chocolate-type products]
[Valentine's season takes up around one-third of all the sales.]
Cocoa-kun
"Really"
Valentine's
Outside of Valentine's

"Speaking of which, recently primary schoolgirls coming to buy chocolate dagashi while making excuses like, "It's friendship chocolate, okay?!" have been quite common."
"I told you, it's for friends!
(Maou...?)
[I see, that makes sense. Right now, our store doesn't have any chocolate at all.]

[Anyways,]
"Kokonotsu-kun,"
"Good morning."

"Ah..."
"Morning..."

[Today is Valentine's Day.]

Ichiban Natto

She's holding some natto...

(Why natto...?)
"Are you about to go to school?"
"Ah, yeah..."

"You shouldn't leave home this late! You're about to be late, aren't you! Have you properly eaten breakfast?"
(Why natto...?)
"Uh, no... I haven't eaten..."
"That's not good! You have to eat something! For example..."

"Natto!"
(Why...?)

Whether it's obligation or you're serious, let's go to the dagashi store!

"Here! Now eaaaat properly!"
"......"

(It's the first time...)

(That I've received not chocolate...)
"Whoa..."
(But natto instead on Valentine's...)

(How should I react?)
"Peel"
"I do like natto..."
(I don't know!!)

(In the first place, does Hotaru-san realize it's Valentine's Day today...?)
"Flip"

"T-the heck is thissss?!! It's not natto!!"
"Fufu... So you've realized."

177th Sweet: Kininatto

"It's a parody dagashi series that has packaging identical to natto!!"
"It's the Natto Chocolate, "Ichiban Kininatto"!!"

"Whaaaat...?! Damn it, I was tricked..."
"Fufufu, you were careless! Did you think me of all people would hand over normal natto?!"

"But eating nothing in the morning really is unhealthy."
"Replenish your energy with that."

"Haha... thanks..."

"If it's called 'natto chocolate', then is it 'natto flavored chocolate'?"
"Fufun, that's what you'd think."

"That's compleeeetely not the case!"
"Compleeeetely?!"

"It's really just like normal wheat chocolate."
"You're right... It's just like wheat chocolate..."
Tasty

"Then, why the natto-like packaging?"
"Yes... This is quite a deeply interesting phenomenon, but"

"Originally, the parody packaging seen in dagashi, modeled after commonly seen products"
"Are made to look like a replacement product for kids who look up to adults and adult-like products."
"Cocoa Cigarettes and Namaiki Beer are great examples of this..."

"And like this, the amount of 'parody packaging' dagashi continue to increase even today."
"And the result"

"Was the goal of 'making it popular for kids' swapping places with 'parodying products'."
[Make the packaging something adult-like but still something kids can buy]
->
[Wouldn't it be funny if we made this the packaging?]
"Parodying became the main goal!!"

"......"

"That's a really dagashi-like line of thought..."
"Quite... It's the best."

"Oh, the bus seems to be here."
"Phew, barely late..."

"Well then, Kokonotsu-kun."
"Go receive a lot of chocolate at school."
"A lot... In the first place, I don't know if I'll receive any..."

"...Eh?!"
"What are you saying? We're going to have a sharing later on what sorts of chocolate you've received! You sell dagashi, so you've got to get more than anyone else!"
"Wait a minute, Hotaru-san..."

"You knew today was Valentine's Day...?"

"Fufu"

"You were careless."
"Did you think me of all people would hand you normal chocolate?"

"See you!"
"Happy Valentine's!"

"......ngh"

(Whaaaaaaa~...?!)
"Man, Coconuts is late."

Hotaru-san's personal way of saying Happy Valentine's Day!! Next issue, to school!! Which means?!

Raws, translation and dump thread by usual people.
That's all for this week.

thanks for the dump

Holy shit, I want to Hotaru to kick me.

It might hurt, she's wearing heels.

Hotaru a shit. Saya a best

You're objectively incorrect.

I wonder if there will be a white day chapter.

Of course. But first, Saya and probably Hajime will give Kokonotsu some chocolates.

That guy feels like a genderbend Hotaru.

Close

I remember thinking that this guy was related to Hotaru when I saw his eyes and behavior.

I probably thought the same but I don't remember.

Thanks for the new typesetted chapter.

So manga is sold in convenience stores in Japan? Why can't comics in murrica be sold in normal shops?

Saya a shit

Is the series ending soon? What with the growing romance/harem shenanigans going on?

...

Will we get a chapter about chocolate coffee?

>Is the series ending soon?
Nope

Are coconuts and hotaru fucking yet? Says is a fucking cuckqueen

They are planning their future together.

...

I guess it's time to revisit that bochi doujin

What does Hajime actually do at the shop? Are they both managers/clerks?

Thanks for the dumps.

She's the assistant manager. She watches over the shop when Kokonotsu is at school and You is recovering from his broken leg. She is apparently working directly for room and board.

Because Manga is seen as kids stuff outside of Japan

But so are comicbooks

Will the anime get to the new years festival?

Didn't the art in this manga use to be cleaner?

Thanks for the dump
