2

3

4
Althought it’s not that it wasn’t good / but…

5
Here you should say / something you splurged on recently / eating some exotic food- / contents like this to have the chance to create more conversations later
So that’s it / crap…

I / love Roasted pork with egg over rice
Grade B foodie
5
…huh
6
For the sauce are you the type that likes / sweet? Sweet and salty? Or spicy?
Huh?
Well, normally would it be sweet and spicy type?
7
Traditionally, that’s correct / but
8
When you add egg on top of the roast pork, it becomes roasted pork with egg over rice
This unbeatable combination / would it be fun to add a different flavor?

Page 14
1
Therefore I / established a club in the school called roasted pork with egg over rice research club, roasted club for short
EH

I / am very happy
This past week

Page 19
1
Althought it’s something small
Do I really have to write it out / maybe I shouldn’t
If I have to write it out, how should I write it
2
The best part is
The topic of good news and bad news
3
Even if something bad happened / I’m happy
That I can convey that feeling
4
Thank you very much
For asking me to do this

Page 20
1
So what of it
2
doesn’t it / feel extra good
3
what’s wrong / what’s with that face?
4
Yea… / actually
I’m surprised at the level of how good it felt, but…
5
No sparkles
From her
Eh?
6
Don’t tell me you’re still going by that theory?
Not theory / it’s fact

Page 21
1
What was it
girls in love would sparkle?
2
Right
3
Let’s say / you do see that kind of light…
Yeah
4
Is that really sparkles coming from a girl in love?
Can you really trust that light?
Of course
5
This light is / “personal viewable visible light of love” / conclusion
Huh? Huh? / Personal visible…what?

Page 22
1
Light of love that only I personally can see / so I call it “personal viewable visible light of love”
…oh
2
As you expected / visible light is a parody
I didn’t notice / really sorry
3
Then
Yea
4
This light was / when I conclude it to be light of love
In the winter of middle school first year
5
I close examine around me
All the girls who were shining
6
Came to this conclusion
No question about it…!!
7
A girl would give off a light if they have someone they like…!!

Page 23
1
Then / to be sure I asked all the sparkling girls
Do you like XX? / something like that
2
EH!?
3
That’s a bit
Ah- extremely direct
Ah / completely denial from all of them
4
…then / there are no proof at all
No
5
After that / I was completely ignored by all the girls
I / was always eavesdropping on girls conversation / sneak a peak at girl’s cellphone / picking up thrown away notes exchanged in the class as rumors like these were spread.

Page 24
1
Anyway, that proves / what I had said were all true
Pro…probably
2
Sensei / so during the middle school you never talk to girl / don’t tell me this is the reason?
Well
3
Anyway, / the light tells the truth about what that girl feels
So that’s it
4
But / currently / young shinonome isn’t sparkling for other guys right?
…yeah

Page 25
1
Then / just like this slowly change the distance to light
…could it happen
2
It can’t be helped / I’ll assist you then, don’t be depressed
Thank you for that…but
3
You have not / liked someone
4
Before?
6
What…
Hmm?

Page 26
1
I’ve always been a good girl
I thought this is better than couldn’t have one-
2
s…sorry
don’t look down on yourself like that
3
You’re a very nice person and very smart / you’ve help me greatly
All right / 10 points
4
…huh?
*grin*
5
First, immediately apologize / and then acknowledge and praise the other
Toward a girl who’s about to sulk is a perfect score
Oh!

Page 27
1
Get a feel of it / learn ways to approach a girl from me
So that’s it / good tip
2
Then I’ll do what you say / treat her to something to drink
That’s good!
3
But / if there is no reason, don’t go out of the way to do that all the time
Hmm / …then
4
As a thank you gift for listening to me / I’ll get you something to drink
Yes / that’s fine
