//This is another of those series I’m just filling in for a chapter (at least for the time being), I don’t know if I’ll continue translating it or if someone else will continue with it, but I sure wouldn’t mind continuing doing it, it’s really funny and the chapters are short

Aito: Wh…What’s going on here!!? This room looks horrible!! (cd: You’re wearing a jersey too!!)

Aito: I…It can’t be…

Aito: Gy…Gyaaah!!!
Aito: Ashisu-san stinks!!!

Aito: My Ashisu-san who always smelled of shampoo has…
Aito: Ashisu-san has a sour smell!!!
Aito: No matter how busy you get, please, please take a bath!!
Aito: You’re a girl!!
Sahoto: Ah, geez!
Sahoto: Now that I became a professional mangaka,
Sahoto: I’m a mangaka before I’m a woman!!
Ichika: Excellent!!
p4
Ichika: It’s people like you that become popular authors!!
Box: Konno Ichika (29) Gongon’s No. 1 Author
Sahoto: Konno-sensei…!?
Sahoto: Yo…You look worn out.
Ichika: I…I had lots of work this month…
Ichika’s sd: Fufufu…
Aito: I…Ichika-sensei is sour too!!
Ichika: This is how female mangaka look when they’re fighting!!
Aito: Eeh!?
Ichika: When I was young
Ichika: I spent a whole month without bathing and using a bottle to go to the bathroom!!
Aito: Th…That’s too much!!
Ichika: It’s just how much I was dedicated to my manga!!
Sahoto: And after that you could create the great hit "Adventure World" is, right!?
Ichika: Exactly!!
Sahoto: The…Then, I have to throw away more of my femininity…
Aito: Hey!!!
p5
Aito: Ashisu-san, you’ll die as a girl!!
Sahoto: That’s none of your business, sensei.
Aito: Do you manga properly as a girl!!
Ichika: Aito-kun…
Ichika: You can only gain things
Ichika: After losing other things!!
Ichika: Aito-kun, you wish for your manga, panties, and girls equally
Ichika: And as a result everything you do is half-assed!!
Aito: No…No way.
Ichika: I feel that Ashisu-chan has potential!
Sahoto: I…I’ll do my best!
Ichika: And, if Ashisu-chan becomes no good as a girl,
Ichika: No guys other than Aito-kun will want to take her and you will profit! //as in marry her, in Japan, women normally marry into their husbands house leaving their own, that’s why “taking” a girl is a way to say that you’ll marry her
Aito: Eh!?
Sahoto: No thank you.
Aito: N…No, but…
Aito: E…Even I…
p6
Aito: Even I would say "no thank you" to that Ashisu-san!!
Sahoto: Wha-!?
Aito: A sour Ashisu-san that died as a girl…
Aito: I wouldn’t take her even if I were asked!!
Sahoto: I wouldn’t ask you to!!
Aito: I mean, Ichika-sensei, you cry "I’m lonely…I’m lonely" 2 or 3 nights a week!!
Ichika: Wh…Why do you know that!!?
Aito: I heard from the editor in chief!!
Aito: Even if you become a great author by becoming sour and dying as a woman,
Aito: You’ll only gain loneliness for when you’re old!!
Ichika: Old!?
p7
Aito: That would be the end for you as a person!!!
Aito: I…If you’re still doing it after hearing that…I…Can’t…
Sahoto: …
SFX: *clatter*
SFX: *scrub scrub*
SFX: *scrub scrub*
SFX: *splash…*
SFX: *clatter…*
Sahoto: Don’t misunderstand…
p8
Sahoto: It’s not that I don’t want sensei not taking me…
Sahoto: It’s just that it’s too much of a humiliation to become a person who even sensei treats like that.
Sahoto: Do you have any complaints?
SFX: *flutter*
Star: Pay great attention to the next page!!
Aito: …Embrace me<3 //"make love to me <3" if you think this isn’t explicit enough
Sahoto: No way.
Aito: Ahn, I love that Ashisu-san!
Ichika: Wh…What…What should I do…?
