Thank you tofu for your translations! You did a great job! I don’t know if you’ll see this comment, but wanted to let you know all the same. I also wanted to say that the meaning was very well conveyed in the last chapter of Hiromichi’s revelation. Especially the words “it’s not even funny” I think that truly hit the message home about him realizing it. I’m not a gay guy, but it truly tore at my heart strings to see Hiromichi cry and say the words “I slept with a man”. Aah it was such a bittersweet moment. The realization and joy he might have felt about finding out he wasn’t crazy and his sexual identity was real. But then there might also be despair because of what it would mean for him and his family. So many complicated emotions and feelings. Sorry for my ramblings, these thoughts just went through my head when I read that part.
