Chapter 32: Bodyguard? (Second half).

With apologies to Raw Anon and TS Anon. I couldn't wait so I took screenshots of Comic Fuz myself... that's why the weird dimensions. Let's wait for the proper rip to get it typeset.

See you tomorrow.

Hey, about what you want…

You’re still on that?
I’d be happy no matter what you get me, Ayano.
…
I mean it!

>>280137113

Just knowing there's someone out there
is thinking about someone like me… you know,

Thank you.

I knew right away what to get Natsumi for her birthday.

[on phone title] Isshiki Fumi
[first message] Thanks for your work! Classes ended up a little earlier than usual.
[second message] Good work today. I just got to the parking lot, so I’ll head over right away. Wait for me at the gate!

But I guess I just can’t understand him because I’m still a kid.

>>280137176

Also… yesterday…
We’ll meet again, right?

>>280137204

I’ll go explain the situation to the school.
And then…

>>280137690

I’ll report the situation to the agency,

I don’t want to have to do this all over again. [she doesn’t want to explain this whole situation again if/once her mom arrives]

Since Fumi isn't her legal guardian, they need waivers/authorization to be able to discuss the situation and give Ayano to Fumi. They say 引き渡す a lot, which is "handing over, entrusting".

[subject line] About the Haga Ayano incident (inquiry about entrusting)

To the faculty members at Houbun University affiliated middle school,

Thank you, as always, for your support of my daughter. This is Haga Ayano’s mother, Haga Yumi.

Thank you for calling today. I’m sorry I was unable to answer, as I was in a meeting.

At the moment, due to work commitments, I am away from my office and unable to respond directly. I entrust this matter entirely to Mr. Isshiki of JG Production.

If anything further is required, please contact Mr. Isshiki directly.
I apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.

Haga Yumi

Regarding Haga,
I ask that no information be shared publicly, if at all possible.

---

A bunch of the email is covered so I filled in the blanks with what would make sense. The english should be randomly covered too. Also RIP Typesetter Anon.

>>280137990
>I entrust this matter entirely to Mr. Isshiki of JG Production.
Actually make this "I defer this matter entirely". And actually I don't know why I made it "Mr." make that "-sama" instead.

30:
30:
Because in her line of work,
a mistake in how these things are handled can be fatal to one’s career.

Of course. We’ll be mindful of that.

We do plan to inform the local police station about this incident, however…

We’ll handle any information related to Haga-san’s work with the utmost care.

Thank you for your cooperation.

>>280138010
31:
The same goes for us.
If, by any chance, strange misunderstandings were to spread,
It could influence the other students as well.

We’ll protect all our students, Haga-san obviously included.

>>280138033
32:
Then, would it be alright if we proceed entrusting you to your manager?

Yes…

Let’s leave things to your manager for today, alright?
It’ll be fine.

>>280138056
33:
Her mother didn’t come.

Even at a time like this,

...she had no idea of what kind of face her daughter was making…

>>280137990
Ayano's mother doesn't deserve to be a parent.

>>280138079
34:
She entered the show business at just 5 years old.
Her mother expected so much of her… then left her on her own.

Even when she wanted to see her mother, she couldn’t say so. She just stood there, surrounded by us adults.

And meanwhile, we ended up convincing ourselves she was just a “good kid”.

It’s no wonder she was making that face…

But, I don’t want for her to make that face anymore.

Fumi's just about McFucking had it with Ayano's mom now.

This is grooming.

As usual please point out any awkward or stiff English. I'll try futzing with the userscript posted earlier, if Raw Anon doesn't upload something I'll put this chapter on catbox.

Let's hope Typesetter Anon is here tonight and sees this thread.

>>280138398
Thanks

>>280138398
>I'll try futzing with the userscript posted earlier
you get a little box in the lower left corner, and it's basically just going through the gallery, click select all, and just download as a zip. you only need to make sure that the order is correct, sometimes it goofs up the order
I think hakuneko works too, but you have to do some login shenanigans to get it to work and I never managed to figure that out, so the script is just easier for me

>>280138298
How is he not embarrassed? She was the victim and yet she's the one being considerate of him.

>>280138213
>>280138237
>>280138253
I might be a little retarded, but is he mainly shaking because he got anxious about the whole situation, or because he got mad about her mother?

>>280138660
I think mostly because of the whole situation. He's still not over how he fucked up handling Akari.

He has no chance of escape.

>>280138391
I don't think you can call it grooming when it's a 13 year old girl grooming an adult man anon.

Still think she should get him that strut bar.

>>280138915
>That was easier than figuring out how to crop the screenshots, ha.
the easiest way to crop screenshots is usually using a photoshop action batch, but in general you should avoid using screenshots unless absolutely necessary. but for almost all manga it's possible to get direct rips, the hard ones are app only manga like ganma, which also is region restricted to Japan.

>>280139037
Should get him an olympic barbell with weights, a squat rack, and a pull up bar. Then he could make it like zyzz.

>>280139026
That's just what the 13 year old girls want you to thinkrs08v

>>280137224
>Fumi's hair being messier than real life in Minori's image.
Minori is the best.

>>280137061 (OP)
Bro where is the plot?
This is going nowhere

>>280139256
The plot is very much actively happening. The plot is Ishiki being mentally tormented by past trauma, inability to act or pick his priorities in life and a relationship with a 13 year old girl that is getting out of hand and he can't/won't do anything about to the point where it will reach a breaking point, just as it did in his past job. Chapters like this are the cracks building up, and eventually we'll get to the park where something breaks.

:3

>>280139112
Fumifumi should loft but remain natty and not turn in to an early social media attentionwhore. He will have an easier time picking up and carrying his wife.

This chapter was really fucking cute. You can tell Ayano is slowly healing Fumi. Cameraman-san getting away with the photos worries me though.
Thank you to TLanon and TSanon for your valiant efforts.
Lastly: BROS I WANT A CHILD WIFE SO BAD

>>280139256
It's interesting you say that when this manga is probably one of the most deliberate in its plot development. Nothing in it is wasted. Just this chapter we had 1) Fumi's patience with Ayano's mom running out, when he was the one put off by Shiraki saying he didn't like her on ch 6. 2) Fumi's acceptance of Ayano's "you're fine just the way you are" from ch 30, which was prompted by Ayano figuring out Fumi actually cares in the elevator. 3) Minori and Ayano making up, which will probably make the dossier/investigation come up again.

It's as >>280139292 said. Now that Ayano fully understands him, the only roadblocks to the end game are in Fumi's mind. All of his excuses and hangups are being methodically taken down. It's really well done and has almost no fluff.

Typesetter Anon onegai.

Painfully low amounts of :3 this month. I'm getting too used to the dose.

I was re-reading the whole manga and honestly that one page where Akari realizes Fumi is not coming and you can see that she had her bags ready and despite everything was still sure that he would choose her, that they could run together is one of the most heartbreaking pages i have ever seen in manga. Its genuinely painful.

>>280139123
Kek

>>280139952
That arc pulled no punches. Everybody was miserable, nobody redeemed themselves. Vpngg

>>280139952
It wasn't until then that she understood he really wasn't in love with her, she was being silly but it's still tragic. Meanwhile Fumi really didn't have what it would take to act, in some way, and try to help her. Even if the option to run with her was off the table, he'd have to love her to live with her like that.

But it's ok, his decent and caring behavior towards Ayano will redeem him. He won't just cut ties with her. :3

If Jaga writes an ending where Ayano and Fumi don't get to be happy together I might have to fly to Japan and correct her.

>>280139163

Thanks for translating and the raws, I'll get to work on them.

Its kinda weird reading Jaga's doujin and thinking about how we basically know how Ayano looks naked

>>280142780
It’s great that we have confirmation she has very pretty nipples.

>>280138318
>Might not be a physical thing at all.

Do Japanese kids dislike hugging? If she was Western European she would be hugging Ishiki all the fucking time.

>>280138348
Thanks for the translations.
This manga really feels like something that STALKER would have translated if he didn't got drafted for the war.

>>280144239
>Do Japanese kids dislike hugging?
Japs are against touching other people in general

>>280139952
>and despite everything was still sure that he would choose her, that they could run together
She just dumped him a few days ago, figuratively speaking.

Why does this guy like that piece of shit Subaru so much. I bet the author has one.
I bet he blows every 3rd paycheck on headgaskets.

Does anyone find it weird that nobody (the teachers at Ayano's school, Fumi's coworkers, Fumi himself) considers simply reporting Ayano's mother as an unfit parent? Her daughter gets creeped on and her response is to say: "I've got work commitments, so let her talent manager handle it.". Anybody would be picking up the phone to Child Services pretty fucking quick.

>tfw no JC wife

>>280144393
>Japs are against touching other people in general
Sad. Hugs are good.

>>280144733
>onsiders simply reporting Ayano's mother as an unfit parent?
If manga and anime has taught me anything, is that Japan's social services are close to non-existent. Same with mental health and defamation/honor laws.

>>280144733
even in the US, which is probably the most neurotic nation with respect to that, CPS would be having a giggle (or be mad at you for wasting their time) over that kind of report.

>>280144733
>Anybody would be picking up the phone to Child Services pretty fucking quick.
She's well fed, goes to school regularly, has no bruises and there's no cum dripping from any of her holes, why the fuck would child services care about her?

Oh, right, magazines are broken. Tankoubons too.
It's kind of a pain to support multiple categories with Hakuneko's cancerous API, and the maintainer is a faggot who refuses all my PRs anyway.
I have my own custom Python script for ripping from FUZ but it requires a tiny bit of programming knowledge to use so it hasn't been met with much enthusiasm when I shared it before. You're probably best off just using that violentmonkey userscript.

>>280147668
yeah, my programming skills are almost non-existant, I'm halfway through a How to automate the boring stuff with Python video tutorial so it's probably a little while until I can do anything useful
The userscript works fine and gives direct rips, but it's slow and cumbersome compared to just download with hakuneko or kobo/calibre. but it even works on bookwalker which is a plus

>>280151035
>Where's the Kodomo no Jikan team?
it's more that it needs a director who's able to keep the drama and tension up without rushing it
most directors are terrible at that. the average anime has terrible pacing

>>280145718
I accidentally typed the capcha there

>>280145499
the point anon is making is probably that emotional neglect is just as harmful of a neglect as all the other things
but it's out of the scope of what cps can do about, and it's also subjective and hard to verify
I know since I grew up with emotionally neglective parents, but at least I got fed and had a roof over my head
but you grow pretty distant to others and aloof because of it

>>280151266
I can just imagine some newbie completely ruining it by forcing dramatic glances instead of having things happen naturally, almost imperceptibly like in the manga.

>>280141851
Thanks Raw Anon. I imagined it was something like that.

>>280152084
you're probably not going to get an adaption without exagerrated reactions. then it'd had to be directed by makoto shinkai or something. even mari okada isn't able to pull it off

>>280153342
if I had to guess based on the previous chapter he was probably supposed to be more perverse, but the editor probably stopped it and made it less offensive since it's a 13 year old girl if I had to guess
otherwise he'd probably try to take upskirts is my guess

Let's be honest, is there anyone here who has never taken a pic of a girl in the streets?

most closely related I've ever done is probably snooping around on facebook to find images of people

>>280154058
>jerked off to Ayano.

Alien ayano ?

>>280153570
I'd rather avoid any form of repercussion. Shit could get bad in the current climate.

>>280154027
I would

>>280153570
I took a sneakshot of a woman while working out at my uni's gym. I won't do that ever again, I have a good friend who called me out on how wrong that was and the shame hit me hard. Also looking back it was retarded to do, I was in a large building full of uni students. I would have gotten destroyed if I got caught.

>>280155467
... but was she hot?
this is important

Stop fucking blogposting in a :3 thread on /a/ and go back to /r9k/ you faggots.

>>280153570
Taking pics of little girls in public is just asking for trouble.

>>280156438
They have no expectation of privacy while in a public space!

I want to :3 Ayano in her :3 until she :3s

very important Ayano

>>280153570
I live in a Medeiterranean European country, and I seen every summer some stuff. But I'm not suicidal, yet.

>>280153570
I haven't.
When I see IRL creepshots being posted in 2chan loli threads, I feel nothing.
I guess I'm a fake lolicon.

Jaga needs to surpass this page soon

>>280153570
Nice try, officer

>>280153570
I fully admit to taking sneak pictures of fat retards on the street to laugh at with my friends

>>280153342
Honestly with taking creepshots, the high is who it is and being the person to take it. The visible thighs is enough for at least one tribute.

Consider reading this manga too
>>280157939

>>280138253
Look at that hand size difference

King shit Anon, thank you

I love this manga.

Why was Ayano walking to the parking lot when Fumi told her to wait by the gates?

>>280161213
He just smiled without putting on airs or trying to distance himself. We're in the end game.

>>280161153
This page hurts me

>>280162578
She was lost in thought, probably didn't even register the message. Dumb brat aaking for upskirts.

>>280161240
Does making him a father counts as a physical thing?

>>280161344
>tanned tomboys
Eew

>>280160439
stalker is ukranian, so he was forcibly conscripted or fled the country.

>>280163069
We're so fucking close. Just one more push.

Stalker is the anon from /gif/

I hope I never get described as being "from /gif/" woof.

>>280164268
Wasn’t he an expat?>>280164420

>>280160554
Impossible to say no to that face.

>>280138158
>>280161037
Just a small observation, shouldn't this be "I got her involved..."? It seems Ayano is looking at the room Minori was in and the raw just says 巻き込んじゃった

>>280161153
I wanted to say something crude but that look just says so much about how safe she feels with him, it's just so precious.

>>280164942
Oh you're right. I didn't make the connection that's the room minori was in.

>>280164677
Isshiki will find the way

How much fanservice does this manga have?

>>280160367
Minori legs...

>>280165698
A lot if you're a woman

>>280138079
>>280138104
>>280138121
You have no choice but to marry her.

Interesting, that's the most positive response he's had so far to her intimacy.

>>280165963
The way she consistently grasps only one or two of his fingers is so alluring.

>>280165963
H-hot...

>>280161116
She's a celebrity. They can't have guys taking upskirts of her and posting them everywhere.

>>280138253
Why are his hands so big?

>>280166321
You know why.

>>280166321
>Why are his hands so big?
because big manly hands turn women moist

>>280137778
she needs to be dicked down so badly it's not funny

>>280166519
Minori will have a cute side-character kodomo doushi romance subplot where she develops a crush on a boy in her class but gets really tsundere about it.
Source: it came to me in a vision in the desert

>>280166519
By me

>>280160732
Why is the school staff interrogating them? They aren't gonna do anything anyway

>>280166587
Thanks Jaga

>>280166739
To get them out of people's eyes and give time for Ayano to calm down. The woman teacher noticed Fumi was uneasy w/ the commotion.

>>280166739
Keeping up appearences. Look occupied and like they're doing something.
Honestly it's a farce and they all know, but they've got to play it out.

>>280166201
Wedding soon

>>280166216
It's a metaphor for Ayano wanting to grip Fumi's cock.

>>280161153
>>280161213
I can feel it... the power of the Subaru WRX STI™

>>280167630
is this just product placement, or is she actually really interested in subarus
and why subarus. what's special about them

>>280167667
She's actually interested.
Dunno why, I like their old model wagons though.

>>280167667
She likes cool cars and is very knowledgeable about the Subaru community culture. Fumi's friend who got him into cars also has one, and wears Subaru shirts. I would bet she actually owns one irl.

>>280167086
Kind of depressing how grounded showing that is. Like it's meant to show the child they're doing everything they can to prevent it from happening again, which is clearly jack shit. But giving that sense of safety is pragmatic, and covering their ass by documenting and giving lip service is too for the corporate reason.

>>280166321
Female author

She practically just needs to lean a little.

Is there any chance this really ends with both of them dating?

>>280173340
Happily married

Imagine eternal JC Ayano wife. Fumi is so lucky.

Any updates for Jaga’s sugar mommy series?

>>280173527
I heard it got axed.

>>280137061 (OP)
How do you think the manga will likely end?
A) Dating but after she become legal
B) Reach their life goals, but doesn't end up together
C) Double suicide
D) Secretly dating
E) Celine dion

>>280173527
Different author

Next chapter should be the end of vol7, right?

>>280173527
Up to at least chapter 7 in the raws, MC went on a date with his childhood friend.

>>280173560
a) probably

>>280148417
Nobara?

>>280173539
>I heard it got axed.
It's not axed yet, but sales were really bad, didn't even rank daily on shoseki sales. So most likely axed at two volumes.

>>280174349
Ah scratch that, it ranked daily five times, my bad.
It also was released on a thursday, so the ranked days are thursday, friday, saturday, monday, tuesday. So even if there's no weekly one, it might have reached weekly if you had put together all the five days.
In short we don't know.

>>280173560
I severely doubt that he's going to go for her romantically, the story is fairly obvious that he cares about her on a platonic level. And she's just got a kid crush.

Realistically it's kinda easy to get a woman to fall for you if you interact with them often and aren't too ugly and not a sperge

>>280137296
>>280137324
>not carrying a bag with the camera pointing upward
NGMI

>>280174521
You just need to be nice to girls and they'll like you

Be real with me, is this going for the Ameagari ending?

>>280160367
>>280160391
This is it.
With Akari he stopped and never moved forward.
With Ayano he made it through.

>>280174521
it's not particularly hard to find a girl that's interested in you
the issue is mostly that incels are not going to find those girls when they're being terminally online and complaining about it on the internet instead of going outside and meeting people
and they've watched too much porn and have unrealistic standards, and sort of expect to date super models
it's like clockwork really
the only big issue is that dating apps are kinda shitty for guys and a lot of the dating action have switched to dating apps
like there's little more demotivating for a guy than trying out a dating app to be honest. it pretty much ruins any interest in trying.

>>280174759
Different situation, with Akari he was partially the cause of the problem and was afraid helping her would fuck him over personally, neither applies in this case

>>280149407
Lol, lmao even
Age gap romance anime in 2025? With a JC?

>>280175005
Yes

>>280173560
A) after a ridiculous time skip or B)
Publishers are too much of a pussy nowadays for D) and E) since they already toned down the creeper
A) is fine for me only if they wait for the minimum which is 16

>>280174760
>it's not particularly hard to find a girl that's interested in you
Statistics says otherwise

>>280173527

>>280160908
He needs to become her dad

>>280160908
>she had no idea what kind of face her daughter was making
:3

>>280175005
There are multiple this season.

>>280173527
Rawkuma has two more untranslated chapters

>>280176589
Who taught her how to :3?

>>280176733
Are we getting closer or further away from answering this age-old question though? It feels like a lot of works like to dance around a concept without ever addressing the hardest questions. Though I guess this is also Japanese way of storytelling, evoking conflicting feelings through the experience while never spelling it out.

13-sai feels like the author's expression of frustration and sadness where clearly pure feelings get sidelined because of a societal dogma.

By the way, is Jaga a male or female?

>>280171724
But does she swallow?

>>280177330
>By the way, is Jaga a male or female?
Judging by artstyle and story alone, 100% a woman.

>>280178354
I'm fairly certain Jaga is confirmed a woman.

Fumi is prime "I can fix him" material.

>>280174760
>it's not particularly hard to find a girl that's interested in you
>the issue is mostly that incels are not going to find those girls when they're being terminally online and complaining about it on the internet instead of going outside and meeting people
Now imagine a girl who would fall for such a person. Imagine someone even worse than a fat, ugly, mentally ill, terminally online 4chan poster.

>>280178435
It's working. He's getting fixed in real time.

>>280174760
The issue is more the fact that after school there's no realistic places to get to know a woman to that point naturally anymore. Work or Church used to be the two other places but work is HR world now and the few women who actually go to Church get scooped up fast.

>>280173682
same artist

>>280174521
Interacting with people at all is really hard, infact even finding people and then getting to the stage where you can interact with them is really hard.

Have you sent any letters or postcards to Jaga?

>>280179664
Just become a talent manager

>>280174760
>going outside and meeting people
You faggots don't understand that if you're the sort of person who can do this (meet and connect with people) then you're already the sort of person who can get, or likely has had/has, a girlfriend.

I am not a woman hating incel, I don't blame anyone but myself for never having had a relationship. I am outside 5-6 days per week but I am alone. Some people just go through life with the ability to connect with people they just barely cross paths with and interact with them, others go though life alone and can't even quite nail down the reasons why they just naturally can't make a connection with those barely acquaintances you meet during life. And in my case absolutely none of the barely acquaintances are women in the first place. Where the fuck are they even women to socialise with, assuming you can socialise?

>>280176795
>Who taught her how to :3?
It comes naturally to her, it is her natural state. She's just the :3 sort of girl

>>280175068
Lol, lmao even
>>280176733
Such as?

>>280174760
>incels
Go back.

>>280179942
What would he do then? She needs to demonstrate.

>>280180118
>>280180154
>>280180154
She seems like a sweetheart.

>>280180212
:3 detected

>>280180257
in my mind the :3 is just being playful
I can sort of imagine people having the :3 irl right before they do a prank or something fun
sort of hard to explain

>>280181121
She doesn't have the right equipment for that

>>280182126
No, I understand. That's how I think of it too. I am just saying that Ayyyano is naturally the sort of person who thinks in a way/does things that cause her to :3. She has the playful smug.

>>280182736

>>280161094
Literally shaking

What is Ayano's final objective once she's 18?

>>280185364
Getting pregnant by Isshiki.

>>280185491
You think she's gonna wait for that long?

>>280186076
Her first will be 4 years old by then. That is a long wait but not terrible.

>>280185491
...and then they are both out of job.

>>280177330
>Are we getting closer or further away from answering this age-old question though? It feels like a lot of works like to dance around a concept without ever addressing the hardest questions. Though I guess this is also Japanese way of storytelling, evoking conflicting feelings through the experience while never spelling it out.
This is what art is.

>>280185491
How? She can't just show up one day to his door and then rub her fertile pussy on his face.

>>280186186
Most child actors don't make it as adults, they could just get together and maybe Isshiki can live out his dream of becoming a director

>>280187126
Because the most important thing to be as an actor is to be attractive, and not all child actors age well.

>>280187169
>and not all child actors age well.
NTA. But this is huge in nipland.

>>280187126
Jesus fuck anon you can not be this tone deaf.
Go read chapter 18 and 19 again. They can NOT backpedal on this.

>>280187169
Isshiki will only direct movies with her as the lead actress

>>280187740
I can see this ending coming true

>>280137061 (OP)
FUCK Isshiki.

>>280189002
Ayano...

gentlemen I just speedread thru ch 9 why the fuck is this so wholesome and makes me smile and dokidoki
it's wrong, no one in the west would be receptive, like I'd lose my job. Yet this is the most compelling male/female romance I've read in weeks

this was crazy

wew lad

>>280190124
A child's body heat...

>>280190124
GET OUT OF THERE MAN
SHE'S GOT YOU

>>280190124
She's a FUCKING child.

>>280190306
>13yo
>Child
She's almost an adult

>>280190124
Fumi never stood a chance.

>>280190124
Women really do instinctually know how to break a man

>>280190306
Out of 10!

>>280190101
Are 13yo girls really this tiny?

>>280193209
Ayano is extra tiny.

>>280193294
It wouldn't surprise me if she takes hormones that stall her growth so she can remain a child actor for longer.

>>280193341
That's fucked up enough for me to believe.

Would Ayano be a good wife?

>>280193493
considering how little her mom seems to care about her and just consider her an asset, it wouldn't be beneath her I think

>>280193522
I unno

Little girls are strong

>>280193341
You forget that at the start of Chapter 20, Ayano was asking Fumi for ways to grow taller. She's trying to trigger her body growth, not supress it.

how can he resist this !

>>280193771
she could be given pills she hasn't been told properly what is, like told it's just vitamins or something
or if growth stunt medicine is injection, they could've just told her it's vaccines or something
many ways tot trick her

I want to pick up Ayano and put her in a high place not high enough for her to be in any harm but too high for her to get down from there by herself

>>280194170
that's loli abuse anon

>>280194170
I used to do that to my friend's cat when I was little, not sure what was wrong with me

>>280193787
He's in denial.

>>280177330
Jaga is a woman, obviously.

>>280194170
Do NOT bully the Ayano. Get bullied by her instead.

>>280150698
only Shaft could handle it

>>280137061 (OP)
As someone who has read a lot of IRL stories about neglected children, I think Ayano is way too nice and well-behaved to be one.
Honestly feel like she's some weird insekai self-insert of the author not a human child.
The more you think about this manga the more you realize how silly it is.

Would (You) be able to resist Ayano's advances and retain your sanity, anon?

>>280194254
He wasn't kidding at the start when he called Ayano an insanely pretty girl.

>>280194459
not even for a second if she didn't want me to

>>280194459
I would've been arrested inside half a chapter.

>>280194418
She's not neglected in general, just by her mom, everyone else gives her plenty of attention

>>280194574
What does Ayano want from Isshiki? Attention? Or something else?

>>280194726
Closeness and intimacy, but not necessarily in a sexual way.
While Isshiki probably wants to protect her.

>>280194999
She wanted to kiss.

>>280193642
>pomf

>>280194726
A father figure, but also pOnOs in vagOO.

>>280193639
thanks

i love Ayano-chan.

I was behind a Subaru WRX on the way home today. I laughed to myself and thought of this thread. I'd upload the pic but it has enough doxxable things on it.

Is it just me or does Ayano get cuter every chapter?

>>280197082
>>280197916
The guy who tried to take a creepshot of her...

>>280159389
What is that nasty handwritten dialogue? it's so off-putting

>>280194459
Of course not, no sane men would resist her

>>280194459
No, any healthy straight man that says they can are lying to themselves.

>>280194418
>>280194726
So one time I read an explanation that deep down, an archetypical woman wants to be spoiled and taken care of by a father figure - he gives her stability while not breaking her illusions too much, basically she wants to be treated like a child. This lines up with another fact where women are a little unstable and not the best decision-makers (made apparent in modern society). Even in anime and manga, you can see how most of the plot points in non-fantasy works come from some kind of irrational action by a woman.

In this framework, an age-gap romance with a (reproductively fit) teen is basically the most evolutionarily correct and purest form of romance, where a teen girl hasn't been "educated" out of it by society yet (making her independent). Of course, with Ayano's experience of being a female celebrity, she isn't exactly socially adjusted in a normal way (this has improved her both her social/manipulation skills and pragmatism), but her most primal concept of romance appears to be still intact.

However, many people incorrectly interpret this safety-seeking aspect in loli/teen romance stories as "she just needed a father". We have this flawed idea where a girl who wants safety somehow can't also want romance, and that they should "get over" the safety part before romance can be valid.

In modern society (which this manga also represents), where men are trained away from their predatory instincts, women are paradoxically forced to take more charge for anything to happen. You can clearly see Ayano grooming Isshiki towards a romantic role, she's constantly playing and enticing him, giving him the opportunities to initiate (since normally male is the initiator), and feeling sad when he shuts down her advances.
