Little things mean a lot. :)

Hey all! Like I mentioned before, my physical copy of the magazine couldn’t make it to me because of covid/shipping reasons, but my friend in Japan was kind enough to get the raws to me! She actually has a scanner, so she was able to scan the magazine, thus the different format. However, the images are not the highest quality, and for that, I apologize! When I get my copy, I will be able to get better pictures, but for now, this will have to do!!

There is a lot of dialogue in this chapter, so it may take a while for me to translate. Thanks for your patience, as always!

And, as the nice anon told me, Nakamura-sensei wasn’t able to get the last chapter in Opera vol. 76, so we have one more chapter to look forward to in Opera vol. 77 which will be coming out at the end of August.

Enjoy!

Doukyuusei art I made in October for my patrons

I went with a soft automnal theme for this one and I like how the colors turned out

I love Sajou and Kusakabe A LOT, so it was a pleasure to draw them ❤️

Under the cut is my translation for Blanc Ch 8! ^_^ Thank you as always to @aliciacentolla​  for letting me use her pictures of the raws for this post! :D Also thank you to Kai for answering my “is this an idiom or a grammar thing I haven’t learned yet?” questions so that I could ensure this is as accurate as possible! ^_^

I’m still working on Ch 7 (this semester killed me @_@) but Ch 8 was so intense that I ended up translating 20 pages the weekend it came out. ^^; So I figured I might as well just finish it up and post it before Ch 7. ^^; I advise you read this chapter somewhere where it’s okay to scream and cry. @_@ Seriously. Have tissues ready. You will need them. T_T

Please support Nakamura-sensei and buy the mangas if you’re able! Vol 1-3 of Doukyuusei are available in English (they call it Classmates) at pretty much all places that sell mangas, and you can buy the rest of the series and the current issues of Opera that contain Blanc on amazon.jp or CDjapan (they even have ebook versions, but they’re always at least 1 issue behind for the magazine)! Also Seven Seas has a survey on their website where you can request titles you want them to license. So if you haven’t yet requested them to license the rest of Doukyuusei (Sora to Hara, O.B., and Blanc), let your voice be heard and fill it out! :D

Under the cut is my translation for Blanc Ch 6! ^_^ Thank you to @aliciacentolla for letting me use her pictures of the raws since I can never seem to get good pictures from my copy of the magazine! ^_^ Also thank you to my friend Linzz for answering all my kansai-ben and “is this either an idiom or slang?” questions so that way I could ensure this is as accurate as possible! ^_^  

I’m super sorry it took me this long to finish translating. T_T This summer was so busy I barely even had time to sleep, much less translate. T_T Hopefully it never again takes me this long to translate a single chapter. @_@ But I am extremely grateful for your patience and how kind everyone was about the delay! This really is an incredibly sweet and patient fandom, so thank you thank you thank you for being so wonderful! ^_^ <3

As always, please remember to support Nakamura-sensei by buying the mangas when they come out! As of right now, Vol 1-3 of Doukyuusei are licensed in English–vol 1 and 2 of Doukyuusei are out already in English as Classmates, and vol 3 comes out in November! :D Vol 4-6 can be found on amazon.jp, and Blanc can be found in Opera Magazine also from amazon.jp! ^_^

So Sajou and Kusakabe talked on the phone and decided to meet once Sajou comes to Tokyo (unfortunately not in this chapter ;_;). Sajou visited his mother in hospital. She asked if they made up already and told him that he should treasure things (and people) he holds dear because nobody knows what future can bring us.

Meanwhile Kusakabe was visiting some place with guy from music company (I guess?) to see if it fits for his MV. On the spur of moment (deciding what should be in MV) Kusakabe reveals his orientation. After a moment of confusion guy says that it's Kusakabe's song and it would be wrong for it's MV to be different than he imagined.

I just can't with Kumi being all cutie (is it even okay to call her that?) with her "it's a secret~" when Sajou found CD Kusakabe made for her. Like she treasures it so much and wants to brag about it, yet she wants it to be her little secret.

Then their phone call. They're still so awkward and in love with each other, getting butterflies in their stomachs just from hearing each other breaths on the phone... Yet it's so hard to close the distance that appeared between them.

I love how Kusakabe casually said that his vision of flashback was not of a high school GIRL. And his laugh right after, like whooops, I just said it... whatever, what you're gonna do now, buddy?
