Also my Japanese isn't the greatest but.. this is what I could decipher from the chat log:

Alright. How are you pigs doing!

Third! Because I'm slacking off at work lol

You’re the pig. Good job on slacking off.

I changed "会社早退" (leaving early from the company?)" to slacking off, since here's still there.

Looks like he's futilely trying to bump his thread too :shobon:

For this?

OnonoimoTa
I like punk and metal. 28 years old. My favorite music label is Hell Cat! Meow~
It’s been a while, pleaase read the lyrics I wrote today

Edit: Made corrections. That isn't "Dog", but the "Ta" in Kanta.

\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ Regarding Ononoimo, I'm not sure if it means Anonymous. In Japanese netspeak, anonymous is "名無し" (Nanashi/Nameless). I think it's a references of some sort, but I'm on a school computer without a Japanese keyboard, so I can't look it up now. I did get some results for a TV show. I'll just pretend he's trembling potato or something.

I could see it as him mashing up "Anonymous" with "Kanta" to get "Anonymota."

I could see Kanta doing that, but anonymous would be anonimasu phonetically, not ononoimo. He could be butchering it, or making it sound cuter, but there's probably some other meaning.

It could be a reference to Ono no Imoko, with the" ko" (common ending of a girl's name) replaced with a "ta" (common ending for a boy's name). I still don't know the significance of that.

A quick search of the Japan part of the internet indicates that it has something to do with potatoes? Which would make sense, given the shape of his head.

I'm in mind of the "nonomohe" style of drawing a generic face, using the corresponding hiragana characters for the eyes, nose, and mouth. You could possibly make a weird head shape (wearing a hat?) out of an O, then the no no for the eyes, i for a nose, and a squashed mo for a mouth. I assume I'm thinking way too much about this. The implication probably is that he's bumping his own forum post because he has no worthwhile contributions to make. I know the feeling.

I'd just like to sperg to a manga references this latest chapter has;

When Kanta is criticizing/praising the food at restaurant, his hairstyle changes to characters from food-critic-centric, "Oishinbo": to its protagonist Shiro when he realizes the entree is drat good, and to Yuzan, Shiro's rival/father, if his response is lukewarm about it.

It’s summer, let’s go BBQ! :woop:


Another co-worker. Kanta is trying to build his office girl harem or something. :clint:


A day at the workplace…


(Hmm… What are these people looking at?)


(Ah, a company event notice… This year is…)
BBQ EVENT!



BARBECUEEEEEEEEEEEEE! :chef:

BBQ! This should be interesting!


AWESOME!






It will be so much fun, everyone would participate, right?
You must come; anyone that doesn’t would be a little too shutin. You would come, right? Ms. Shoko?
(Ms. Shoko!)
Of course! This is the BBQ! I can’t wait!
(Ms. Shoko is going… Hmm... Hmm…)


MEAT! MEAT! MEAT! :btroll:

BBQ! HERE I COME! INTO THE RANK OF BBQ EVENT!


The day of the event…

Today is the day of BBQ!


Speaking of casual clothing…
Ms. Shoko casual outfit…


“Must be… Very cute.”

Hmm… That can only be witnessed in social gathering where everyone in is in their casual attire.

Ooh, this is a tough one, mostly because we're relying on Kanta's sense of style again. We can't pick anything too exceptional or else be overdressed for a casual event, plus our subject this time sounds like she intends to drag Kanta around the whole park before the end. That means "shiny and stylish" is right out. "Normal" is a safe pick, but boring, and "shocking t-shirt" has way too many possibilities given the internet, so I'll take the risk and go with Kanta's personality this time.
