Miseinen Dakedo Kodomo Janai [Chapter 26]

As some people are moving back some things into the old apartment, Nao apologizes to Karin’s father for the inconvenience regarding wanting to divorce Karin before, and now, bringing back their luggage/stuff to help him move back. Kazuki laughs and says that it is alright, it is just a small thing because in the end, he still chose to be with Karin. Somewhat flustered Nao says ya. Reika happily holds Nao and Kazuki’s arm and exclaims that’s right, no matter how they disagree, it is okay as long as they don’t divorce. Reika hugs Kazuki and says that from today on, they would forever be relatives [by marriage/in-laws] and she’ll leave her son Nao to him as his son-in-law. Quickly leaving, Reika says that she has an appointment for a whole body makeover[/most likely a spa thing]. She heads to the car where a driver is waiting. She happily says that she no longer has to worry about money and she even bought a new bag. After she left, Nao apologizes to Kazuki about his mother. Then, Karin calls out from above that the whole place is back to how it was. Nao says that he’ll be coming right up. Kazuki tells Nao that he’ll be leaving. He declines Nao’s invitation to go sit for a while since he is already at ease. He tells Nao that looking at him, he doesn’t look confused regarding marrying Karin and his facial expression had become carefree so from her on, he’ll leave his daughter under his care [/yoroshiku]. Somewhat blushing, Nao says that he’ll definitely [do so]. Inside, Karin exclaims in surprise that her father already left when she specially prepared some tea. Karin chokes on her drink when Nao asks about the arrangement of the furniture. Karin is nervous as she told Nao that she made the moving people to put it back into how it was on the day they got married. It turns out that she made the futons[/bed] together in one room since from tonight on, they are like a married couple living in the same house.
Sitting by the futon, Nao tells her to hurry and come to him. Karin wonders if the FIRST NIGHT is finally going to happen tonight. She tells him that she’s going to take a shower first. He tells her that they’ll perspire anyway in the end so shower afterwards. Nervous Karin tries to protest but in the end, she sits in front of him when he calls out her name. Nao tells her that they are going to start. Blushing Karin says okay.. To her surprise, Nao rolls over a futon to her and tells her to carry it back to her room. He quickly moves her things into the other room. Karin is in disbelief for it is like there is totally no progress these past three months. She asks him why they are in separate rooms. He tells her that it is because their sleeping time isn’t the same. He says that she also has to change clothes so even if they are married, it would be better to have a bit of private space. Karin exclaims that without that, it is also okay because he is already her husband and he can see his wife’s everything. Nao touches her face and says ya, he plans to do that soon but he wants to slowly build up their relationship. He tells her that they unexpectedly became a married couple and living in the same house, but he still wants to start from the lovers’ stage. Holding the dividing door, he says that it would be better to slowly eliminate the barrier between them. She asks for how long is this slowly. Nao finally admits that if they don’t sleep separately, he has no way of maintaining his rationality and he hopes that she will cooperate. He hugs her and says, “Because I like Karin. Please let me cherish you more.” She happily says okay. She sees a cute jewelry box on the table and asks Nao about it. He tells her that actually, he should have given it to her three months ago. He opens the box and says that it is the wedding rings.
He tells her that it is prepared for the wedding day but at that time, he doesn’t like her so he casually made up a lie to her father so they didn’t exchange rings at that time. Holding up the box, he asks her to please exchange rings with him now. Silence. Nao starts to say that it might be too casual to do it in this kind of apartment so they just do it in some church later on. Karin grabs the box and exclaims that to wear lovers’ ring with him is like a dream. So, they put the ring on each other’s finger. Karin happily holds up the ring and says that he is a bit strange for he has no way of exchanging rings because he doesn’t like her but he was able to properly do the promise [/wedding] kiss that he even tricked her by saying that he’ll only kiss her face. Nao admits that he plans to kiss her on the face but seeing her so nervous and trembling, he couldn’t resist it for he finds her very cute. He holds her hand and says that even right now, by merely putting on a ring made her quite happy-.. They kiss. Look at each other. Then, to her surprise, he kisses her quite deeply. Then, after breaking it up, Nao says that it is as he said, it is dangerous if they don’t quickly separate rooms. At school, fangirls confront Nao and Karin to be honest as to what their relationship is. They always have this knot in their hearts upon seeing the two of them like that during summer vacation. They nervously ask if Karin is his girlfriend. The two wave their right hands and say that it isn’t like that. Looking at each other, Nao says that she is his important family member. The fangirls think that they are relatives. They apologize and quickly back off. They are happy that Nao still belongs to everyone. The couple is wearing their rings on their left hands and were holding their hands from behind. Karin mutters that they are not lovers at all. Nao mutters that they directly jump into that stage. “[We] are a married couple, that kind of important family member.” Blurb from the mangaka: “Thank you for the support. This series will temporarily go on a hiatus. After resting and recharging, I’ll be back, please wait for it.” End of Part One.
Comment: So, things are back to as it was with a bit more lovey-dovey from the couple from here on. Nice touch with the exchange of rings even if it wasn’t at the wedding itself. I actually don’t know what to think of Reika appearing here but boy, she’s really brazen. For now, they are still going to keep their relationship a secret even if I don’t see why they cannot just say about being ‘lovers’ since that is what Nao wanted them to start again from. Is it to protect Karin from the jealous fangirls? But then, isn’t it annoying if the fangirls are all over Nao? Lucky for them, the fangirls aren’t very sharp with love stuff. Anyway, since part one is over, I guess in part two, the next possible problem/s will come from outside. It is not mentioned for how long the mangaka is going to rest so for now, thank you for reading up to this point. ^-^ Scans by allwink

  2. Noooooo ! ! Hiatus ? Aaaargh ! ! this is torture ! ! ! For some reason, this is one of my favorite mangas, currently. Awwww ! This really sux. * hangs head *

    maybe they want to keep it a secret because they are living together ? But basically, the school will not let that be a problem if they are actually married. I undersand that living together without marriage is a no-no in high school in Japan. ( Just like LDK)

    That said... I feel this is too good to be true. Somehow, sometime, something';s gonna happen that might break them apart. I don't know of any problem that would break them apart, unless , a rival comes in..... most probably a girl rival in nao's past. Remember when Nao was asked if he had done it already, and he didn't respond ? Maybe that girl will appear soon ? Or maybe, the following episodes will be the difficulty of married life ? Or maybe the fun of keeping their marriage a secret from school ?

    1. Hehe, is that so.

      True..but not hinting on a romantic relationship between them seems kind of wrong = more problems later on which might be the mangaka's intention. Oh well, maybe they don't want to lie or something.

      Yup..or else, the mangaka could have just ended this story here. Well, there are a lot of possibilities..I just hope it will be better than the divorce arc. =P

      Hm..not sure if I'll continue. The Chinese scanlations didn't continue the 2-3 chapters afterwards and it is a cliffhanger. If it is complete, I MIGHT summarize it.

    Tks a lot Kat for this new summary !!! ....I was waiting (im)patiently for it !!! ....I think that it was a cute and tender chapter for Karin and Nao ... their futur seems bright right now ... bit how it will goes when next chapters will be coming ?!?! ... It is really very sad that this manga will be on a hiatus ... but well it's better for Minami sensei's health ...

  5. When Nao said to Karin that they will start or when he seperated the things in the room, it reminded me a lot of the third chapter.
    And btw thank your for always summarizing the chapters and I can imagine how hard and difficult this must be!! <3

  6. Kat, what does it mean, hiatus? Hiatus is what authors say when they want to discontinue writing the manga.... and they hope fangirls will forget it in time. I wish the author had said she or he is going on a " break".

    1. megaworthit, hiatus does mean 'a break' though the wording used in Chinese/Japanese is temporarily '休刊' that means 'suspension of publication'. In one word, doesn't it mean hiatus? I usually use the word hiatus if the mangaka doesn't give a specific date when the publication will resume. It might be a short or long time but usually somewhat long.

      I use a 'break' when it is just 1-2 chapter break from the regular schedule. The mangaka has been taking breaks already since this series should come out twice a month but lately, once. She mentioned of health problems so maybe, she couldn't cope as evident with Nao's hair not colored in the last chapter.

      Delete
    2. Oh, so there are health issues. O_O I hope it's nothing serious. Well, it's okay, then. She really needs a break. By the way, kat, I was looking at your list and saw Last Notes ! ! I like that manga ! have you dropped it?

      Delete
    3. Ya, megaworthit.

      Yup, the English scanlations are quite up to date with that one, way from the start so there's no need to summarize it.

  8. such a cute chapter ^.^. well, I guess the mangaka is wondering what kind of twist she should give in the story to make it more interesting, but I hope her hiatus doesn't last long- this is one of my favorite mangas :'(...Karin isn't like other manga heroines in her straightforwardness :P ( KARIN: "it is also okay because you are already my husband and you can see your wife’s everything"... way to go karin) Thanks for the summaries, Kat. you rock, as always ^.^

  10. I know why!!! She was pregnant (It is on her twitter) how cute and at the same time I hope she doesn´t change the serie´s pace to end it abruptly like the mangaka of hadashi de bara (The ending was laking of something and was a bit rushed) or like miseinen lover´s kaho miyasaka that never ended that series and began another after maternity leave for almost 2 years ( or it was one?)

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Yup, Maika ^^

      I've recently read it in her blog here: http://aquarich.blog41.fc2.com/

      According there with google translate, she has just given birth late last month. And, it seems that she is still going to think things over her future as a mangaka. I'm not too sure how long of a maternity leave she needs. And, well, the ending leading to this hiatus..I think it was very rushed.

      Delete
    2. I knew it, I also had it a little rushed for me. But not as rushed as Hadashi´s ending (It was sooooo rushed) Thanks for the info. I also had a little of help from a translator but not a full translation just the first lines (She is someone I met at a fansub that knows japanese.) Some mangaka that have maternity leave take about one and 2 years. But some of them like Kaho sensei, cancell their last serie and begin another one. I hope this does not happen to miseinen but also hope Minami Kanan takes her time to make the story interesting without rushing an ending to it.

      Delete
    3. Indeed, Maika. As for Hadashi, iirc, she gave birth in the middle of the series and not at the end so I don't think she has the same excuse especially since after Hadashi, she wrote a new series which has already ended.

      Indeed. Well, it really depends on the mangaka. Maybe Kaho-sensei doesn't feel like continuing that series so she just left it and started a new one. I mean, sometimes after 1-2 years, it is possible to lose interest and thought of a better series. Also, I think it might also depend on the sales of the manga. If it isn't doing well, it would be better to leave it there and just do a much better series.

  14. What actually happened :( no translaters for manga? I had to come to the ends of the earth to read summaries TT But you did amazing at translating from chapter 20 up to here, you even provided us with a peek at the scans! You are saving me from a lot of feels because if it ended at 19 for me i'd cry my eyes. Though her other story, Yowamushi Meikyu ended so sadly for me, no one warned me *cries* Just dropped by to encourage you and thank you and to ask what actually happened to the scans and why no one uploaded it I'm truly curious! xx
