Chapter #6 - I'm double dribbling

>>283138968 (OP)
hi my fellows hertzies!

>>283139129
Cute klutz

07

>>283139295
She's a total trainwreck.
And now I wonder why this thread has a fucking schizo.

This series warms my heart.

>>283139019
>Mario Kart
Can they say that? Not even a WcDonald's?

>>283139385
And no, he's too dense to notice, Kurage.

>>283139431
On screen sex? In my magazine for teenagers?

>>283139626
Aaaand that's a wrap.
I honestly appreciate how earnest it's in being a sol/romcom.

>>283139585
Cute potato

>>283139553
Wow, she's not being subtle huh
Nice

>>283139674
Thanks OP

>>283139674

Yeah, it’s a nice little dose of heartwarming every week.

There’s also just really good chemistry between them, it makes perfect sense why she’s fallen for him as hard as she has, and I’m cheering for her to get the happiness she deserves.

>>283139674
thanks for the dump op

Let's hear those one-liners, anons
>What rule would an amateur add to basketball?

>>283140056
You have to say who you're passing the ball too.

I'm loving every chapter of this manga, glad I picked it up.

>>283140056
They'd create height classes for players

>>283138968 (OP)
>Hey, stop narrating...
God damn it, already got me on the first page.

>>283140056
"The ref has ruled in favor of a re-do because the sun was in your eyes".

>>283140911
Ironically, the actual one liners are the least funny part of it.
The com part is ok otherwise.

>>283139256
>Hello, Wilson
THAT'S VOLLEYBALL!

>>283140056
It would be 10 points per shot and 100 for catching the golden rat someone set loose on the court

>>283141339
The one liners don't really feel like >Japanese humor. It's like the text in the second SZS opening.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwhkmfGOyes

>>283140056
give up, because I don't know basketball rules

>>283140056
3 point shot shouldn't need 3 episode worth of Flashbacks.

>>283141604
>The one liners don't really feel like >Japanese humor
I wonder how much of that is thanks to the translators, and whether or not it's an improvement

>>283142724
Now that's just crazytalk.

>>283140056
0.5 points everytime the ball hits the hoop without scoring.

>>283140056
It's actually hard coming up with one of those when asked to.
>Each player gets a turn with the ball like in a rpg.

>>283139373
It is very cute, and it's also a romcom that seems built to resist adding a bunch of third wheel harem bait loser girls.

>>283139674
Oh, wait, is forcing her to basketball a Blue Box reference?

>>283140056
A second, lower hoop; for shorter players.

>>283141339
I feel like there's probably some punny wordplay in a lot of them that doesn't translate out of Japanese.

For whatever reason, I image Kurage being voiced by Nao Toyama

>>283144005
New characters will get introduced down the line, especially new girls.
No romcom has ever subsisted on two characters. But the author can make do with side couples.

>>283145351
>down the line
If it survives that long.

THIS IS MAYOTUNA RIP OFF MANGA
wtf?????

>>283140652
hehe

>>283147854
>>283148157

>>283139403
I guess in manga it’s okay as long as you don't show it.

>>283148144
elaborate

How is this manga doing in Nipland? This manga is cute I don't want it to die.

>>283149466
it's boring. fmc is too straightforward for mc.

>>283149466
CP by chapter 7, so it's doing more than ok.
They love the girl.

>>283151205
the series doesn't really have anything outside of the girl, it's a double edged sword. still, it's charming

>>283140056
It'd just be netball with a backboard

>>283139553
My God, she's so in love...

>>283140056
Every player gets their own ball

this manga is self-insert material for potato-onna
there i said it

>>283140056
>Everyone gets to bring their own basket

>>283140056
Only granny shots are allowed.

>>283140056
Take a player off the opponent's side if there's a large enough gap

she's so unsexy

>>283154360
unsexo (forma de sexo)

>>283153077
I self-insert as Mimei though?

>>283140056
Skilled players would have to play with power level inhibitors

>>283157523
>>283140056
Or rather:
Skilled players would only be allowed to remove their power level inhibitors when their team is losing, to use "that" move

>>283139221
Here's Noda and Murakami:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clGXZuQU6Pk

I read the first chapter and it's kinda refreshing to see the girl being clearly into the male lead, AND knows how to flirt and reel him in too. Usually they would be too shy or clueless.

>>283144005
>>283145351
it doesn't work if the couple already flirt this much. a third wheeler is just weird

>>283139129
small girl + big jacket is a very powerful combination
mizuos sleeves are a charm point too

>>283157931
I like the way the flirting is done too, it's a lot of teasing but it's lowkey and without going overboard like other teasing romcoms

>>283157982
Big shoes too

>>283157574
>forgive me, Zanzibarkley...

>>283140056
Don't put all your balls in one basket

>>283140056
Racial segregation

how the fuck does japan keep pulling these niche shit and making manga about them?
sending in one-liner joke for a radio talkshow at 3am is just fucking ridiculous, same as sitting in a show where one guy is just monologuing some story

>>283158321
The manga is about the romcom, the radio comedy is just the pretext

>>283159365
even the pretext is pretty ridiculous

>>283160307
It's not that bad, though
Just a shared common interest, is it that far-fetched? People should have hobbies y'know

>>283158251
Took long enough for that low fruit to be picked

>>283157931
Shame he's not getting the hint, EVER.

society is fucked if students stay up from 3 to 5am to listen to radio comedy and go to class at 9am

>>283160415
it's realistic for men to be wary of women's advances.

>>283160901
No Kurage, that isn’t funny!

>>283157931
>AND knows how to flirt and reel him in too
>if I act deadpan all the time he won't be able to tell when my confessions are genuine!
Not sure this will work out as well as she thinks.

>>283162071
I'm impressed by how the author can make her look more interested in that panel despite her just having her usual blank expression. Not even sure how he did it, art-wise.

>>283162188
After a quick comparison, I think it's the extra glint in her eye.
But let me tell you, out of all the series I join the dump/discussion threads for, I'm surprised that this week the last man standing is this one.

>>283162188
framing

>>283162587
It's a very cute series.

>>283160758
Instead of if students stay up from 3 to 5am to browse tiktok and go to class at 9am?

>>283160758
i mean, i remember when i was young pulling all-nighters was so easy
now i'm almost 30 and lack of sleep will literally knock me out for several days
getting old... is so sad...

>>283160758
>>283163389
The real crazy part is gonna be after they get together and start hooking up after listening to the show together.

>>283138968 (OP)
Just read the first chapter. Picked up.
Also, if he slept a little before getting out to listen with her, instead of being a delinquent going out late, he would be a diligent student going out early.

>>283164638
One thrust per joke read.

>>283160901
Yes, that's Cute and Funny!

>>283164538
What's nuts is how fast this happens. I didn't go to college after hgih school, ended up enrolling now for a degree because of where my career ended up.
>1st year
I pull several all-nighters for assignments, absolutely no problem
>3rd year (now)
I pull one all-nighter for one assignment and am absolutely fucking destroyed for the weekend.

Literally like 3 years, 29 to 32, and the difference on me is so huge.

>>283160901
TL please

Eel Potato is a MUCH funnier name than Owl in the Woods.

>>283164679
Kek

>>283164679
When he gets a joke read, he gets a blowjob. Cunnilingus for her.

What do you think came first? Did she become a manzai expert and sculpt Fukumori into her perfect tsukkomi so she could tell him she loved him with a perfectly straight face? Or did she realise that in order to become the most powerful double act she would need to have a partner she was actually, literally in love with, and vice versa?

Is she the funniest because she's Mizuo Kurage and he's Mimei Fukumori, or is she Mizuo Kurage and he's Mimei Fukumore because she's the funniest?

Also I cannot believe our all-star competitive academic, sporty, popular, apparently intelligent MC has NOT YET realised he's being trained as the straight man of a comedy duo.

>>283164724
Because it uses potato as an adjective, that's funny.
His name is just stating something.

>>283164724
Mimei Fukumori isn't good at being creative or funny
Fukumori -> Fuku + Mori -> Mori ni Fukurou (Owl in the Woods)

>>283164769
>>283164831
They're just so innately well matched that he just falls into the role without effort

>>283140056
switching basketballs with tennis balls

>>283140056
Jumping too high is forbidden!

>>283140056
If you manage to slam dunk, you win the match.

>>283165398
>I turn him into my tsukkomi

>>283164846
Isn't it using eel as an adjective??

>>283144005
What if the third wheel is actually a tsukkomi?
A gay straight-man woman

>>283165425
Is the potato eely or is the eel potatoy? We might never know.

>>283165439
>Spoiler
Heh

Is she a potato shaped eel or an eel shaped potato?
I feel the answer is yes.

What one-liners will Kurage say while they are having sex? Go.

Coming! Coming!
Coming soon to a movie theater near you!

>>283165989
>Is it in yet?
>W-w-what?!
>I was asking about the release of GTA 6...
>That would be is it OUT yet!

>>283165989
You are so deep! Found any oil yet?

>>283165989
This is so embarrassing! I can't look you in the face, can we do doggy style now?

>>283166979
I like this one.

>>283165989
You are coming? I'll come clean and say I punctured the condom.

>>283168106
I think that would be more like:
>I'm gonna come! ...clean and say I punctured the condom.

>>283168370
Much better, thanks!

>>283139674
It's a shame half of the series' popularity so far has been from NTR; they have great chemistry.

>>283168542
literally what NTR lol

>>283168542
All of its popularity comes from cute girl+vanilla romcom no matter how hard you try to force the NTr angle.

>>283165989
>You know, getting your hymen thorn actually hertz.

>>283139585
Did she actually time it? She knew that line was coming.

>>283165989
Let's come together!
Right nooooow
Over me!
Tumtum turururuuuu shoot me!

>>283168774
>he thinks she's a virgin
>he forgot about the guy on the baseball team

>>283169714
They guy with the matching keychain? He couldn't open her lock.

>>283169714
You seem obsessed, anon. Did Someone Hertz you?

>>283165989
This is your one and only shot, don't miss it

NTR??
now we are in boys

>>283170939
MC's reply:
>I'm not throwing away my shot!
>Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it.

>>283165989
Last two panels >>283139221

>>283170939
Then she leg locks him and forces him to shoot again.

>>283173152
Where are you getting this fanart, anon?
