so...

 

[VINT64]

...good...

 

[Alacran]

I understand the story needs to happen they explained why it's not so easy to just do it but also

CAN WE FUCKING TALK ABOUT THIS CAN YOU NOT FUCKING ASK THE GUY TO HIS FACE ALONE IN PRIVATE WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON????

 

[Tersione]

He's hiding something, that's for sure. There might just be more to this than Kudou waiting for her memories to come back.

 

[Sandpaper]

Wait...so why can't Kujirai just ask Kudou what's the backstory? Because she's in love with him?

@Sandpaper
Well I'm pretty sure her reasoning for putting the photo back and not asking about it is because of what the other girl said, that she thinks he's waiting for her to remember on her own. Finding the picture isn't "naturally awakening" her memories, obviously.
I kinda like this temporary resolution actually, she's grown as a character while we now have a loose end to look forward to getting solved eventually. But for now it's more romance/world building I guess.

That twist turned the story around, holy shit. Great time to pick this up.

 

[phantom1412]

Interesting direction, let's see how it goes...

 

[themoobz]

[mrmm]

Should have renamed
Kowloon Generic Romance with a twist

@Sandpaper I think it's because of what her friend said about Kudou waiting for her to "regain her memories". If that's true, then he's in love with the old her, the one in his memories. But that's not her anymore. So I think she might be a little scared to ask him and a little annoyed that (from her perspective) he's looking at the old her and not her right now. Which is why she told him to look at her and why she was upset when he refused to try a new restaurant (him refusing to change and let go of the past) and when he said he feels nostalgia for her.

or she can ask her boss

 

[Truck-kun]

Does the text on the Post-It changing between panels on page 18 have to do with the margin text on page 2, or is it just an error?

 

[Big_Boss]

He IS trying to make her remember old things, taking her to old places and treating to her favorit dishes from before.
Thanks for tranlsation!

 

[IJustMadeThisToComment]

This is such a wild journey,i'm glad to be experiencing it with you guys.

 

[Sandpaper]

@Rellea that makes so much sense, I can't believe I missed all that (especially the trying a new restaurant part). Thanks for the explanation :)

@Cillbosby I see...and I yeah definitely like her putting the photo back - it just seems right for her character (and for the plot to develop).

The schedule change so early on in the serialization. I hope there is nothing wrong with Mayuzuki.

 

[ErikMm]

@horsewithnoname I'm rereading from Chapt 1. Lots of stuff I missed. Mix of old and new tech: She has a1970's flap digit clock by her bed.

Chapt 2 TV announcer: "Generic Terra is truly a romantic undertaking for all mankind". Generic Terra is clearly the Ramiel in the sky after rereading Ch2. The TV announcer actually says Generic Terra is romance for mankind. So "Kowloon Generic Romance" actually refers to the second earth they're making when readers are assuming the title refers to love between the two main characters?

Lots of foreshadowing of amnesia like people are speculating. "Righteousness emanating from this juicy, boiled gyoza dumpling" from him in Ch1 is the exact same thing she told him in the flashback when they first met. Constant fiddling with the glasses. Numerous mentions of "nostalgia".
