top: The third chapter of this limited-time-only serialization!
1: I came home from work one day
2(small): I can see the floor...
3: to find my room perfectly clean.
side: Madarame, who has never had any sort of relationship with cleanliness, suddenly finds his room immaculate?!

2)
1(3b): Ahhh...is this Hato-kun's doing...? He must have been trying to be considerate...or maybe he couldn't bear to look around because everything was so dirty...
2: The books and games are also perfectly categorized.
3: hah
4: Safe...

3)
middle text: Want one?
left text: The re-serialization is doing great!! It is overwhelmingly popular!!!

Chapter 59 - Minesweeper

4)
1: ...it kinda feels like
2: the atmosphere of the room's changed, too...

5)
1: ...well, whatever...
2: It's pretty much all girls now anyway...
3: If it was back then

6)
1: And....

7)
1: Oh

8)
1: Tata
2: tototo
3: Ummm
4: Watanabe!
5: Madarame!
6: Woahhh, woahhh, woahhh!
7(2b): I really panicked there...(how could I confuse them?)
8: Are you the only one here?
9: Uh...um, yeah.
10: Aww...I wanted to see the faces of the newcomers.
11: --huh?
12: What? I'm a member of Genshiken too, you know!
13(2b): I'm the little sister of the previous President, and the sister-in-law of the new President! It's a great position to be in, you know!
14: ...Sasahara was the President before that. (And then came Oono-san)
15: Try coming at night.
16(2b): During the daytime...well, the most amusing person won't be here, at least.
17: Hato-kun
18: I had work off yesterday, so I happened to wake up early today.
19(small): I had such a good sleep
20: ...work?

9)
1: I'm a cabaret girl in Hachiouji.
2: Come and reserve me sometime!
3(small): Here's my card!
4: Nah,
5: I never go to places like that.
6: ...she's really in the wrong place here...
7: Ahhhh, but you know?
8(2b): Now that Kousaka-san and Saki both graduated....this place has gotten pretty boring...

10)
1: Do they ever visit?
2(2b): ...nope. I met them for a little at the welcome party,
3: but they never come all the way up to the room.
4: Ohh...
5: But if Saki doesn't come, then they're be no point for you to come either, Watanabe.
6: Right?
7: Haha...
8: So she's going to persist with Watanabe...

11)
1(2b): Ha...hah? Wh-what are you talking about?
2: Whether or not Kasukabe-san comes here has nothing to do with me.
3(2b): ...huh? What was all that about putting some space between you two, then?
4: There's no reason to hide it now!
5: You like Saki, don't you?
6: ...I don't understand.
7: What do you mean?

12)
1: Ummm...it was, like, crazy obvious, you know!
2: Like, CRAZY OBVIOUS!!
3: It's weirder to think that this wasn't all brought out in the open!!
4: My sister and Oono-san said the same thing.
5: Which means her boyfriend obviously must have known as well! (and my brother and the guy with the chonmage)
6: Also...I'm not sure about this,
7: but I think that Saki herself must know too.

13)
1: ...I

14)
1: have no idea what you're talking abouuuuuut!!!!
2(2b): Uwahhh...you're really pissing me off!!
3: Can't you even TALK about your love properly, you otaku?!
4(2b): Talk about my love? I've never even been in love! (I've been an otaku since the moment I was born)
5: So then you have no friends, huh?! (Well excuse me!)
6: Shut up! Go and give one of those old men at your cabaret a free groping, why don't you?! (Bitch!)
7: Cabaret girls are NOT prostitutes!!!!

15)
1: ...can you two stay in that position for a moment?
2: I'm going to go to the convenience store to buy an eyeleteer, a carving nice, and a pot lid.
3: That makes no sense! (Don't overdo it)
4: A...foreigner?
5: She's new.
6(2b): ...hmph. Well, whatever. I'm going home.
7: Yeah, that's it, get outta here.

16)
1: You've never had a broken heart yet.
2: That's why you can still laze around here forever.
3: --huh?
4: Try confessing to reality once, you otaku!

17)
1: N...
2: Noooow then...
3: I've got to be off to work as well...
4: There's a way to move ahead without getting a broken heart.
5: ...huh?
6: Just fall in love with someone different.

18)
1: ...um, sorry.
2: But I don't think that's gonna happen...
3: Howdy!
4: Oh, Su-san's already here!
5: Hello, Madarame-senpai!
6: Howdy!
7: Oh man...
8(2b): -er, huh?
9: You're all gathering up now?
10(2b): Your lunch break's gonna end.
11: Aren't you a bit late?
12: Afternoon classes are canceled, so we decided to make our annual pilgrimage to Ikebukuro.

19)
1(3b): Hato-chan seemed especially excited, and replied saying he'd "change right away." I guess he's never been there before, so it's going to be his princess road.
2: He's probably changing at your house right now!
3: Hahaha, ohhh--
4(2b): Well, I have to go back to work. See ya.
5(small): Goodbye!
6: Goodbye!
7-8: Uwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

20)
1: Oh, the first-years all went together?
2: Looks like Su's really starting to fit in.
3(2b): I dunno...but Yoshitake-san seems like a very proactive person, so... (I guess she'll be alright)
4: ...what are you fidgeting so much for?
5: Eh...fidgeting? (I'm not)
6: Hyah...
7: ...hello? yes.
8(2b): Thank you very much...yes.

21)
1(2b): Yes...thank you very much.
2: ...huh?
3(small): I've rarely seen that smile...
4(2b): Yes...yes...yes, and?
5: OK, understood.
6: ...Ogiue-san?
7: ...my one-shot storyboard (it's a two-parter, but)
8: was OKed by the person in charge...!
9: Eh...
10(2b): You mean...it's going to be published in a magazine...? (It's decided...?)
11: ...yes.

22)
1(2b): Kyaaa! Congratulations! Things are going so wonderful! (You're becoming a mangaka!)
2(2b): Thank you very much. I wonder how many fights with Sasahara-san it took...
3: Call Sasahara-san right away!
4(2b): No, Sasahara-san probably has work...I'll send a mail.
5(small): Sent!
6: Hyaa (A phone call?)
7: What excellent response time!
8(2b): Th-th-thank you very much...it's really all thanks to you...
9(small): Oh, you're outside right now?
10(3b): Eh? Ah, at night? I see...I don't think Su will come today, though...(she's off at Ikebukuro) Yes, later is fine.
11(small): Woah...
12: Sorry, I'm listening in...
13(2b): Ahh...um, the first part will be in the September Issue, and the second part will be in the October issue.
14: They'll be on sale in July and August, though.
15: The deadline is on July 12 and August 12...

23)
1: Eh?
2: August 12...?
3: ...yes.
4: Now that I said it I just realized myself...(I completely forgot)
5: I don't know if I was selected or not, but...
6: That's one of the days of comifes, isn't it...?

24)
1: Huh...?
2: Did I forget to turn the lights off...?
3: If not, then is it Hato-kun...?
4: He's never been here at a time like this, though...
5: click click snap
6: Ahh...

25)
1: Uhh...
2: excuse me...
3: I was just picking up my things...!
4: I'll leave immediately...!
5: Eh?
6: Ahh
7: Umm, er...
8: I went to Ikebukuro today...
9: It was...so sudden, and I had a feeling I would be buying a lot of things, but didn't have time to prepare a big bag...
10(3b): so I left all the contents of the bag I usually put my clothes and makeup in here, and then took it with me empty...and when I got back I couldn't wait any longer and read an entire doujinshi...I was dying to read it, and it was thin so I figured I could finish it easily. I was so patient on the train, you know, so I kind of rebounded.
11: Mmm.

26)
1: Was it fun?
2: Ikebukuro.
3: Ahh...
4(2b): Y-yeah...(it was really...)
5: That's good, then.
6: Feel free to come here whenever you like.
7: You're the one who cleaned this place, right?
8: So I have no right to complain.
9(2b): Ah...sorry for doing that all of a sudden. I always use this room, so...
10: You don't need to worry so much.
11(2b): Ohhh! This really is a lot of stuff. Can you carry it all home?
12(2b): Ahh...I'll take it all home immediately! It's alright.
13: Oof...

27)
1: Wanna drink a little?
2: I still haven't had my fill yet.
3: So I bought some on my way home.
4: Ah...

28)
1: Ah, I'm sorry, but I really...
2: can't wait to read all this...!!!!
sfx: mufuuuuu
3(small): Alright, then go home.
4: Ah...sorry. Yeah, you're right.
side: You smell good. Like boys' love doujinshi.
5(small): Sorry about this!
6: Be careful.
7: uwaaaaaah
8: What was that just noooow
sfx: roll
9: ...it smells
10: kinda good in here.
11: Meanwhile, in Ogiue's room.
12: Eh...but why, Suu...
13: What? You want to read them together?!
bottom: Next time, Ogiue-san gets some help <3 catching everyone's hearts!
