Sonobe: And so, I'd like to introduce our new member!


125
Sonobe: This is Nomihara Noriko-chan. Be nice to her!
Nono: U-umm, what's going on, Sonobe...?

Mikuru: Oh, Nomihara-san... Let's have some lunch together.
Mikuru BG: Have a seat.
Nono BG: N-Nice to meet you.
Nono: Oh, do you always eat lunch outside?
Masumi: Just cause the weather is great <3
Masumi BG: Yo

Masumi: By the way, Sonobe! Since when did we become a group?
Masumi: I think groups are really snooty, so I don't really like them!
Sonobe BG: About that
Sonobe: I didn't mean anything like that.
Sonobe Small: It's just for convenience. Convenience.
Sonobe: By the way, this girl has something good here *musical note*

Sonobe: I really like it <3
*sfx*

Masumi: Uwa, she did it again...
Sonobe BG: Hey, hey! Stop being rude and look over here!
Mikuru: Man, I feel bad for Sonobe's victim...
Ujiie: That smile is the scariest.
All: But anyway, for now,


126
All: We'll call you "Nono"
Nono: Wha?
Nono BG: So sudden...

Masumi: No good? Then how about "Nonocchi"?
Ujiie: Nah, "Nonoppe" is better.
Mikuru: "Noppii"
Mikuru BG: Sounds much cuter.
Nono: ...

Nono: "Nono" is fine.
Nono: It was my nickname in junior high too.

Sonobe: Now that that's all done with~
Sonobe: I, Sonobe Sakura, have planned our first social event~~

Mikuru: Ok, let's eat!
Masumi: She just loves talking, don't mind her. Let's go!
Nono: You sure?
Ujiie: We're sure.


127
Sonobe: What's that? Have a looksie at these pool tickets for the Imperial Hotel!
Sonobe: Let's go and have a blast!!

Sonobe: And drinks at the bar are included~~!

Mikuru: This is amazing, Sonobe. You've really outdone yourself this time *musical note*
Ujiie: Ohhh, they're legit.
Sonobe: Hehe, I got them from my dad.
*sfx*

Masumi: Pool, huh? Sounds nice *musical note*
Masumi: Maybe I oughta grab a new swimsuit...

Mikuru: Swim
Ujiie: suit
Nono and Masumi: right...


128
All Normal: Maybe
All Big: We should forget about it
All Small: at this time.
Sonobe BG: Don't run away, ladies!
Sonobe: You can't just give in~!

Mikuru: But but, it's because of autumn eating~*
*Note: In Japan, people tend to gain weight after summer due to the autumn foods (at least this is what I was told)
Mikuru: Everyone eats! It's not like summer! We just let ourselves go~
Sonobe: I know. Do I have to spell it out for you, Nazumecchan?

Sonobe: I'm fully aware of a girl's issues.
Sonobe: And I have a plan!
Sonobe Small: Yup <3

Sonobe: Look at this.

Mikuru: Who is this girl?


129
Masumi: Y-You for real?!
Masumi BG: Eh?
Masumi BG: Eh?

Sonobe: You betcha! That's me from the 3rd year of junior high!
Sonobe: I only put it to use once, but I still managed to lose 2 kilo! It's a diet that only pure girls can put to use! And I will share it's secrets with you!!
Sonobe BG: Swallow your pride and I'll show you the way!

Mikuru: Only once?!!
Masumi: W-What is it?!

Sonobe: Its name is
Sonobe: none other than


130-131
Sonobe: The Man Diet!!


132
Masumi: Hey, is the Man Diet really for real...?
Nono: We really turned out in full force for it.

Mikuru: I checked on the internet. There are stories just like it.
Mikuru: But there's a good chance it's fake I think...

Sonobe: In other words, the Man Diet
Sign: Flashback
Sonobe: is a diet that works by letting a man look at you.

Sonobe: I had my dad look at me, because the more embarrasing it is, the more fat that's burned away!
Sonobe: Keep it up until you burst into flames!!
Dad BG: Work hard, Sakura...

Sonobe: Your sense of shame is the key, so if you get used to the guy, then you're screwed!
Sonobe: You have to keep going one after the other!!
Sonobe BG: I chose my dad from my relatives.
Masumi: Wh-What a dreadful technique...


133
Ujiie: But there's nobody around to really ask.
Ujiie: Are we going to call our dads?

Sonobe: Leave that to me!
Sonobe: My junior has a brother. We can borrow him anytime.

Sonobe: Well, you guys were thin from the start, so if you do it once, then you'll be perfect <3
Sonobe: Plus, since I pulled it off as a study session, you guys can just be normal! It's killing two birds with one stone~ *musical note*
Mikuru: In her mysterious way, she pulled us along with her fast talking...
Mikuru Small: She's a force to be reckoned with...

Masumi: Hey, girls have guts, so just get undressed right in front of him.
Mikuru: I'm not taking off my clothes!
Mikuru: The guy that's going along with this inane story is definitely perverted.
Mikuru: I came along just to protect you all.
Mikuru BG: What does she mean by we can borrow him? That's just dirty!

Mikuru: If something happens, I have to stop everything...!
Masumi: Ah, here she comes now.


134
Sonobe: Hey everyone, let me introduce you.
Sonobe: This is the underclassman I scouted.
Ayuna: I'm Shiraishi Ayuna.

Masumi: And you've done it again. You must be sick...
Masumi BG: Another victim...
Mikuru and Ayuna: ...
Sonobe BG: She's the most popular girl of the freshman~
Sonobe: It's cool, cause she's really cute <3

All: It...

All: It's...
Sign: Shiraishi
Kou: We... Welcome...


135
All: It's a guy we known perfectly well.
Kou: Eh?

Masumi: Sorry, give us a moment!
Masumi: Sonobe! Get over here!
Sonobe: An <3

Masumi: What do you mean we can borrow him? That's Shiraishi-kun! What are you planning with a boy from our own class?!
Sonobe: Well, you see. If I ask an adult poorly, it'll probably get us into trouble with the police.
Sonobe: And with double the embarassement, it'll up your dieting results~~ <3
Masumi: That's why...

Sonobe: I already talked to Shiraishi-kun and made him keep silent about everything.
Sonobe Small: It's okay.
Sonobe: Don't worry, Masumi.
Masumi: B-But...

Sonobe: See, because you're feeling embarassed, the fat right here is getting burned away~ <3
Masumi: Ha-Hakyuu...
Masumi Small: My weak spot...


136
Kou: H-Hey there, Nomihara-san.

Nono: I-I wonder... is it really okay for us to do something like...this?
Kou: Eh? Something like this? ...I think it's great.

Kou: I'll try my best just for you, Nomihara-san!

Nono: Just for me... <3

Sonobe: Hey, Shiraishi-kun. You've got good grades, right? I was wondering if you could help us study a bit?
Sonobe BG: In a way, I'm not lying!
Sonobe: Especially Nono-chan!.
Kou: Nomihara-san? I don't see why not...
Kou: I said I would, so now I need to help them properly!

Nono: But, I'm sort of happy... I don't mind being looked at if it's Shiraishi-kun <3
Nono Side of bubble: Kyaa, I said it!
Kou: ?

137
*sfx*

Sonobe: Okay! It's time for the showdown, ladies. Are you all ready?!

Girls: Yeah!
?: U-Um, why are we in swimsuits...?

Mikuru: Ayuna-chan, Ayuna-chan.
Ayuna: What?


138
Ayuna: M-Ma... Diet?!!
Ayuna Small: Oh my god!
Masumi BG: Girls got guts!
Masumi: Alright! Let's hurry and get things started, Sonobe!

Masumi: 1 kilo by any means necessary! I just can't get rid of this last kilo!
Masumi Side of bubble: Dammit
Ujiie: So, we're girls who sold our souls to a demon...
Ujiie BG: I'll come too.

Nono: Ahh, I'll be like this
Nono: in front of Shiraishi-kun


139
Ujiie: Good-looking flesh.
Nono: Huh?

Nono: Wai... Ujiie-cha... Wha... Eh? Kyaa
Ujiie: Flesh.
Ayuna: Mi-Mikuru-san... what is she...
Nono: S-Stop... Ah
Ujiie: Flesh.
Mikuru: Oh that. Don't worry about it. She's having some friendly physical relations.
Mikuru: She'll probably come for you next.
Ayuna: Ehh?!

Ujiie BG: Flesh~
Ayuna: Nooooo~~~~~~!!

Sonobe: Well, time to get started.
Sonobe: Let's go!

Mikuru: Really, what are you thinking...?
Masumi BG: You're in my way!
Sonobe: Nope, sorry. You can't pass, Nazumecchan.

Sonobe: Only people wearing swimsuits are allowed past this point~~ *musical note*
Mikuru: What are you saying?!
Sonobe: It's obvious, ain't it? You're determination is weak, while Masumi's is the real deal!


140
Sonobe: If you guys change into swimsuits, feel free to come in~~
Sonobe BG: Until then, see ya.
Mikuru: Grrr~~ Sonobe~~

Kou: U-Uwaa! Why are you all wearing...!
Ayuna: Hah
Ayuna: Hah
Mikuru: See, just look. Shiraishi-kun can't keep quiet...

Mikuru: ...Huh, the voices got quieter...
Ayuna: Y-Yeah they did...

Sonobe: ...No way <3 Right? <3 Good, huh? *musical note*
Kou: Aw... Ah... That... Eh... Sorry.
Sonobe: Yay <3 come over here a bit more, Shiraishi-kun.

Kou: Err, well...

Kou: Haaaah?!!

Kou: Oh crap! It's bouncing! Everyone is shaking~*
Note: curve (from last page), shaking, and bouncing all come from the same word. (it's a play on math and breasts)
Kou: And also, someone's got some nice perfume. ~Ahh, I'm... I'm...

Kou Big BG Right: Ahh, so this is like
Kou Big BG Left: being in Heaven and Hell.

Mikuru BG: Hmm, so Shiraishi-kun's a pervert.
Masumi: Ah, it's like this Nono.
Kou: Ahh, there's a cute snake looking over here...
Sonobe: Oh, Masumi's smart *musical note*

Kou: This is like a catch-22.
Kou BG: But it's good, hohiih...
Kou: It's my fault, right?
Masumi: And...

Kou: But...
Kou: Mikuru-san... looks so sexy.


147
