Kekkon Surutte, Hontou desu ka? - Vol. 4 Ch. 35 - Are You Okay to Go on a Date? (Part 2)

@kahluaCoffee

So far, she doesn't. And continues to avoid our boy.

 

[Hejti]

rly lying to own mother when they already told the truth to MC family?

 

[kiero13]

So full of misunderstandings for the characters and us viewers

And yeah I'm not sure if they were even close or not. They're somewhat distant yet not. Pretty sure she tried to be a good mom though.

 

[HunterCO]

Man I would be emotionally drained trying to keep up lol

 

[PocketSand2020]

ohno

 

[gobletoffire]

I don't know if the raw is using 'san' or not but, I guess you don't need to use 'san' who will use an honorific to their own children?

 

[eypicasso]

oh noooo

 

[zapken]

Hey everyone, translator here. Honjouji's mom does use "-san" in her dialogue in the Japanese. It's not *unheard of* that a parent might use san with their grown children, but it's not remotely common. Based on this, there seems to be more to Honjouji's backstory and relationship to her parents than we've seen so far, but that's just guesswork on my part.

 

[Rialtoir]

@Hejti she didnt lie, they're not actually getting married yet

 

[Hejti]

@Rialtoir yeah but should tell about their little lie like they did to MC family, mother somehow got the info about it and that might be a plot thing to make things harder in future

 

[Exington]

@zapken Thanks for clearing that up! I was wondering about that myself

 

[foist]

Maybe the "-San" is like when your parent calls you by your first+middle name and you know they mean business

 

[PostImpressionism]

@Rialtoir she DID lie, the question was about "getting" married. Although it's not in her personal plan, it is part of her life rn, so she should have come clean

 

[Rialtoir]

@PostImpressionism not really, she hasn't even decided if she's gonna accept his confesion yet and as far as they themselves know they're not gonna marry they're just gonna wait till is decided which of the other single employees will be sent to Siberia and then cancell everything. She has nothing to come clean about to her with how things are right now and by how they talk they're not close enough to discuss her deceiving her workplace with her

 

[SUPER7X]

My friend refers to his parents by their 1st names, which is certainly super unusual, but they're on perfectly fine terms, so I think Rika's mom using "-san" doesnt necessarily mean something bad. Could just be a weird thing. Unlikely given that this is fiction and Chekhov's gun and all that, but you never know.

 

[justforthelulz]

Moms always know. Always.

 

[oliaulin]

"-san"? why is mom using -san tho

 

[big67]

Quite too many cliffhangers/side stories imho...

 

[bouken]

@oliaulin
It's unusual but not completely unheard of. You could feel the sense of distance between them.

surprisingly the comments in this chapter were productive, that's nice to see, I hope it continues like this
