Ho. Ly. SHIT you guys are going to freak the fuck out over this chapter. While reading most of it I was just shouting various expletives into the ether in my apartment lol
There's a detailed summary under the cut for those who wish to avoid spoilers ^^
The text in the sneak peek was D's inner monologue - here's a more accurate translation now that I have seen the whole text: "I've concealed my emotions, so that this person won't run away". He takes the cigarette from Y and LIGHTS THE DAMN THING. Y asks him how it tastes and D responds that it's "sweet and bitter - it tastes like you" (WTFing hell I'm dead already).
Y makes fun of D for saying such a sappy thing. D whips out the memory card saying he got it from Inami and asks Y if he knows what's on it. Y does indeed know what's on it and asks D if he's watched it, maintaining a "I don't give a fuck" attitude. D says he hasn't watched it. Y asks him if he'd like to watch, to which D asks if it's really okay to watch it. Y goads D on, saying he's not embarrassed (Y still doesn't understand what D's getting at, or at least is pretending to not understand.)
D says that Y is pretty different when he has sex with Inami compared with when D and Y have sex. Y still doesn't get it and responds that it's just that kind of play with Inami. D then spells it out very clearly that he's referring to Y's impotence. Y looks surprised and then brushes it off saying it doesn't matter if he doesn't get hard - the sex isn't for his benefit, it's for Inami's.
D responds by asking why, then, does Y get such satisfaction from the sex that D and Y have? Y doesn't have a sassy come back. D continues by asking if Y remembers how many times he (Y) came the last time D and Y had sex. Y says he doesn't and D says he also doesn't remember. Y takes this as a jab and makes the excuse that his body just had chemistry with D's and that's why he came so much.
D asks when Y's body started to have such chemistry with his. Y dodges the question by asking what D will do if he hears the answer. Y continues on to say (sarcastically) that D has built a satisfying life for himself with a woman and everything. D responds by saying it's unexpected of Y to take such an interest in D's life (D's FACE IN THIS PANEL IS KILLING ME... 🥲 probably the closest thing to a smile we've seen from D but also he looks like he's about to cry). Y realizes his slip and gets up, trying to end the conversation.
D tries to pull Y back but Y snaps and says that his life is none of D's business. Y continues, saying there's no reason for D to do it with him any more and why doesn't he go off and do it with his woman.
D pushes Y against the wall and tells him that just like how Y and Inami's sex is none of D's business, who D has sex with is none of Y's business, isn't that right? Y agrees. Y asks what D's aim is - to confirm that Y can't get it up with anyone except D and take pity on him? To which D responds "You want to do it with me, don't you?" (!!!!!!!!)
Y tries to protest, but D pulls him closer. Y says, "You were only doing it for my sexual gratification, what benefit was there to you?" (Wow, Yashiro is so unbelievably deluded lol). D responds that it wasn't just Y's body that experienced chemistry, it was mutual. (This is the panel from the second sneak peek, btw)
Y continues to protest, saying it was terrible for D to do such a thing under the pretext of his duty (as a member of Sakuraikka). D asks if Y disliked it, slipping his leg between Y's thighs. Y says that D said some cruel things to him (during their sexual encounters) and D says 酷いの好きでしたよね (You liked cruel things, didn't you?). Y responds …好きだよ (I like it [you]). (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
D is absolutely shocked by this (indirect) confession and kisses Y ferociously. We then get about 12 pages of sex, which I will not cover in detail because even though I'm 33 years old and translating a pornographic BL I still blush like a little girl when I write that stuff so you'll just have to wait until I upload the chapter. lol
I will add some things about the sex scene though - D FINALLY takes off his pants (we won, fandom). We can see the bullet wound on his leg from Y as well as the wound in his chest from Hirata. D takes the lead, as usual, Y doesn't initiate any sex acts on D (I just want Y to give D a blow job once, lol). D doesn't penetrate Y in this chapter which means next chapter is going to be a continuation. ✨
At the end of the chapter, as D has Y in his mouth, Y stops D to ask "What kind of sex is this?" to which D responds 俺は節操がないのでただやりたいだけです それ以外にありません (I don't have any moral integrity/ I'm not a man of principles so I just want to have sex. It's nothing more than that.) By the way, this expression 節操がない is the same thing D said to Tsuna when he asks about D's sex life in ch 37. Y smiles softly and pulls D in for a (very steamy) kiss and says, いいな、それ (I like that / That's nice).
END OF SUMMARY
Good lord, what a great chapter. Sensei's name is included in the list for the next ihr Hertz issue so we can hopefully look forward to the next chapter on March 29. ^^
As I said above, my scanlation will be available in a few days, thank you everyone for your patience. ^^
Appreciation post for one of the best episodes of characterisation I have seen in anime: And So Kyoya Met Him
There is Kyoya, who is the youngest of the Ootori children with two elder brothers and one elder sister. Kyoya, who, despite being the most efficient of the Ootori children, is never going to be the heir. Kyoya, who does everything to gain his father’s approval. Kyoya, cold, calculating Kyoya, who does everything based on if it is useful to him and what he gains by it.
And there is Tamaki. Tamaki, who can never even dream about ulterior motives, who sees the best in every person, who happily declared Kyoya to be his bestfriend minutes after meeting him, because Kyoya said he’ll put out kotatsu for him. Not because he wanted to, but because he was thinking about his father’s gains, thinking about what he’ll gain from being in the good books of the son of one of the richest person in Japan.
“When my sisters recall the good old days it’s mainly about fashions or pop starts. For them 1966 was the high point of their youth. But for me it was just fifth grade.”
