The Betrayal Knows My Name, Vol. 7 By Hotaru Odagiri (Trade Paperback, 2017)

When Shuusei and Tooko drop off the radar while on a special mission to Kyoto, concern for their safety reaches a fever pitch at Twilight Hall. While preparing to rush to their rescue, Yuki and company are relieved to hear word that Tooko has been found. Still, with no word from Shuusei, a party heads to Kyoto to locate their ally. But while they’re away, the suspicious deaths around the city are confirmed to be the work of the Duras. Will the remaining Zweilt be able to confront the enemy and save the innocent with their forces so severely depleted?!

…THE EPIC HUGS!!!

Silver Diamond Vol #13 by Sugiura Shiho

Well I can understand why Hakubi misunderstands the innocent relationship between Tohji and Kazuhi ^^ 

Because Kazuhi does nothing but fuels those thoughts with those suggestive looks! And I can even imagine his voice when saying those things ^^ Yes, he only wants to be affectionate and make up for all those lost brotherly years, but sensei draws him in such a sexy way and I’m lost.

How to CONFESS to a GUY :p

on the 3rd pic, he would like to say, “Let’s become man and wife.” :)))))))

Silver Diamond Vol #14 by Sugiura Shiho

One of my favorite mangas!

Senroh Chigusa: spreading the love since 2003 <3

Because yuuram is life, I will make a megapost that will include every yuuram moment in every novel and extra story we have available in English so far. 

I’ll make a post per novel and then make the megapost that will link to them when I have them all. They’ll be long but who doesn’t need a reminder of these wonderful moments in their lives? 

To make it fun, I challenge you to count the times that Yuuri calls Wolfram beautiful.

Let’s begin! 

 ——————————————————————

Novel 1. ch.3 -The first time Yuuri sees Wolfram-

“As for the super beautiful shape of the fourth person, even I might be able to match his physique physically. It can’t be helped because characteristics like the length of the legs is a racial feature, like height and shoulder width and body weight. Since when did I become someone who only worries about body build. Maybe, because of that day when the second pitcher said, “You, since you’re a small target, it’ll be hard to throw a ball into you”.

Even if our bodies are evenly matched, when I just glanced up, I’ve already been defeated. How can he be this beautiful! Because of them, his face emits an aura. Although it’s likely to seem that way because of his dazzling blond hair. His looks and voice are like an older Vienna chorus boy. His white skin seems transparent, and his irises are an emerald green that make me think of the bottom of a lake, and furthermore he doesn’t have a split chin. He’s an angel, definitely an angry angel. However, being in this place, he’s also probably a beautiful Mazoku.“

—————————————————————— Novel 1. ch.3 -Gunter talking about Shinou and Daikenja - cuz it applies

"Shinou is the darkness, and the Daikenja is the light. They yearn for each other, love each other, and are born bearing each other’s colors in body. In short, darkness is light, and light is darkness!”

—————————————————————— Novel 1. ch.4 -Yuuri slapping Wolfram-

It seemed like he wasn’t going to stop attacking under any circumstances. Wolfram gulps down his glass, and because he’s beautiful the way he glares this way is all the more fierce. (…)

There are moments when my small-town sense of justice can’t be suppressed. As a catcher, that’s a fatal flaw. It’s very disadvantageous in life.

Right in front of me I had slapped that beautiful face.

—————————————————————— Novel 1. ch.6 -The reason why Yuuri chose sumo for the duel-

The common people wear trunks, while the rich people or nobles generally wear panties with ties on the side. As a gung-ho noble, Wolfram would almost positively be wearing the panties. I don’t want to see him in his underwear, but he has a figure that looks like it’d come off easily during the match. If that happens then the match is mine. You’re immediately defeated if it falls off. There is a rule for that.

(..) From the start I take a low position, and with a quick forward movement I struck Wolfram’s waist while he was unprepared for a lunge. Instead of a loin cloth I took hold of his belt. It was an instant victory.

—————————————————————— Novel 1. ch.7

-Wofram pov: sort of good-looking brat-

If he was going to kill him, then kill him. Although it was humiliating that this sort of good-looking brat had him by the neck, it was much more honorable to die like a warrior, than kneel and beg for his life.

—————————————————————— Novel 1. ch.8

-Wolfram accepting the proposal-

He looked away from me oddly, lifting his chin diagonally in an unnatural way.

“And so young partners…”

Leaving behind a meaningful phrase, the aged one left the room.

—————————————————————— Novel 1. ch.8

-Wolfram being cute-

“Are ‘grip’ and ‘bat’ the names of the weapons you’re used to using?”

“No no. On of the pieces of gear you use for baseball is like a stick, as well as a glove and ball, and the pitcher throws and the batter tries to hit it, and if he does the batter becomes a runner, and the catcher takes out the runner.”

“As I thought, a life and death match.”

——————————————————————

Novel 1. ch.8 -First time he calls Yuuri henachoko-

“At any rate a worthless maou like you can’t even ride a horse by himself! I can gallop with extra luggage on my horse without any trouble, even if you seem uncertain. You’re the first maou to be such a henchoko, so it can’t be helped!”

“D-don’t call me a henachoko!”

—————————————————————— Novel 1. ch.9 -Second time he calls Yuuri henachoko -

“My older brother should have arrived there by now, so everything might already be under control. It isn’t that dangerous, but since you’re a henachoko don’t go where I can’t see you.”

“Don’t call me a henachoko.”

—————————————————————— Novel 1. ch.9 - When they meet Adalbert-

“Don’t listen to him!”

Wolfram’s voice sounded hoarse as he shouted. The uneasiness made my shoulders tremble.

“Ah, huh, you could talk?!”

“Don’t listen to that guy! He’s…”

It wasn’t just my shoulders, but my arms were wrapped around his waist and his entire body was trembling. As he turned his head to face forward I could see beads of perspiration forming at the nape of his neck.

“That man, he betrayed us… He’ll try, to bring you, into his group, too.”

“Wolfram, if it hurts then don’t talk.”

(….)

“From the looks of it, they’re not planning on killing you. It’ll be troublesome if you get hurt trying to resist. Go with Adelbert for now.”

“But, you and everyone…”

“Don’t worry about us.”

I take in his words. If I leave them behind, what will happen to them?

Wolfram whispers briefly again.

“Hurry and go, Yuuri!”

——————————————————————

Novel 1. ch.9 -Interesting foreshadowing-

“No, I’ll shout, I’m allowed to shout! I’ll be Japanese until I’m twenty, even if I have the soul of the maou, I’ll be Japanese until I come of age. I think Japan is more peaceful that this country, so even if you tell me to stop I’ll continue talking! I oppose war, completely oppose, I’ll oppose it my whole life, even if in death I’ll oppose it!”

——————————————————————

Novel 1. ch.10 General knowledge -Gunter

“As I explained to you, majutsu is a quality of the soul. Your majesty, having the soul of the maou, can make the four elements obey you gladly, without going through the trouble of taking the oath and such things.”

—————————————————————— Novel 1. ch.10

-Are you seeing this, Gyun-gyun!?-

From the far side of the corridor, the blond with wavy hair comes running. The intense navy blue uniform suits him; the mazoku Prince Wolfram. 'Although he’s a man he’s this beautiful, Günter’ I muttered in a sigh.

—————————————————————— Novel 1. ch.10

— Golden wings—

“Appearing without any treasure, don’t embarrass my older brother and me!”

Before I could open my mouth to respond, Wolfram grabbed my chest and fastened a shiny golden decoration to me.

“Hey…”

“My uncle Bielefeld gave this to me when I was a child. It doesn’t have any special origin, but it suits someone who hasn’t gone out on the battlefield, let alone military merit. Anyway, considering Yuuri can’t even ride a horse, he’s the most henachoko king in history.”

“Don’t call me a henachoko~.”

“All right, settle down.”

When he says all that in unnaturally fast speech, Wolfram half-runs away.

The present fastened to the left side of my chest is a gold bird with both wings spread. Conrad smugly gazes after his little brother’s back.

“It seems Wolfram has taken a liking to Your Majesty.”
