Watamote ch221: Since I'm Not Popular, I'll Be Welcomed

p1
>Ah!

>Senpai says she's coming to my class...!
>Then we'd better head back there.

>Is this a maid café?
>Erm, it's a Korean idol-style maid café,  apparently.

>We used the ideas Senpai gave me as is.
>Onee-chan's prejudice towards high school girls is showing.

>Shouldn't you be helping out too, Hirasawa-san?
>Ah, no... I haven't been tasked with anything.

p2
>I did want to try serving customers once Senpai got here...
>but... I'm not very well-liked by the girls in my class, so...
>...

>Um, do you have a moment?
>Eh?
>!

>Would you be willing to let Hirasawa-san help with serving customers for just a little bit?
>Uh, there's no point in asking me...

>Then who should I ask?
>I don't really know, so go ask someone else.
>...
>...It certainly doesn't seem like they think much of her.

>It'll be her last chance to see her third year senpai at a school festival,
>so please let her have this.

>Um, it'll just be for a little bit! Please!

p3
>They said I could help out.
>Good for you.

>Even if those girls hate you, they don't want to look like bad guys either,
>so bowing down and begging makes it harder for them to refuse.
>So they really do hate me...

>But thanks, Kiko-chan.
>Eh?

>Senpai came up with our class' festival project for us... so I've been wanting to take part this whole time but couldn't say anything...
>But now I can thanks to you, Kiko-chan.

p4
>...Well, um... you've been taking care of me too,
>so it's the least I could...
>Welcome, my ladies~

>Looks like Onee-chan and her friends are here. Do your best.
>I'm gonna step out for a bit.
>Okay.

>Senpai. Thank you for coming.
>Oh!
>That's cute~

>Huh? That's Sasaki-senpai!
>Who's that?
>Y'know. That vocalist who performed earlier.
>So she's Hirasawa-san's friend...?
>This way, please.

p5
>What would you like?
>There's a lot to choose from.
>Cheese corn dog?

>It's battered cheese that's fried on a stick. It was all the rage a short while ago.
>A snack for fatties?
>Is this like a rip-off of that fried butter America has?

>I definitely don't wanna eat a whole one, but I might want to try just one bite.
>I'm counting on you, Tomoko.
>You've got guts to be making a request like that.

>If you really wanna eat something delicious, why don't we head to the convenience store?
>It's all over if you say that!

>What do you recommend?
>The pancakes seem to be a good choice.
>I'll have coffee then.
>I can't tell if you're making a clichéd gag or being totally serious.

p6
>Okay. Two coffees, two colas, one milk tea,
>one cheese corn dog and one of the pancakes.

>?

>...Tomo-chan.
>Ofuu!?
>R-Right...!

>Y-
>You're outfit
>looks cute.
>!

>Thank you so much!
>Hehe...

>If you jerked off a guy like before in that outfit, they wouldn't last long.
>I have no idea what you're saying, but shut up, Fuuka.

p7
>But man, a lot's happened already. The movie, the haunted house, Kuro-chan's little brother's play.

>Your movie seemed to be pretty popular with my class, Kuro-chan.
>Especially the boys.
>Eh!? For real!?

>It's because there were a bunch of pretty girls in it, starting with me.
>Ah... That kind of popular, huh...

>Gathering and filming pretty girls is the director's power, in a sense.
>You sound like Akim*to Yasushi...

>Writing an original film... gathering pretty girls... getting footage...
>Akim*to Yasushi...

>In the future, you'll write novels... drop out of college... write song lyrics...
>I'm turning into Yas*shi in that latter half.

p8
>Here's your cola and coffee.
>Thank you.
>Thanks.
>Here's your pancakes.

>Your little brother's play was pretty great, huh, Kuro-chan.
>Ah...
>I guess...

>That kiss scene was amazing.
>I didn't think they'd actually do it.
>I feel bad for Glasses-chan, though.

>We're rooting for Glasses-chan, after all.
>Please don't root for her. I'd rather diminish the glasses population...

p9
>One bite really was enough. I can't eat another bite.
>You can have the rest, Tomoko.
>Quite a thing to say while giving away something like that.

>I think Tomoko's little brother would be better off with Yoshida-san.
>Yoshida-san? ...Ah! You mean Delinquent-chan.

>So Delinquent-chan's like that too, huh...
>She was there during the play...
>Kuro-chan's brother sure is popular...
>Let me have a bite.

>Having watched Tomoki-kun
>today and yesterday,
>I don't think he's interested in that kind of thing yet.
>Eh~ Really?

>Tomoki-kun seemed to be more concerned about Tomo-chan than all those girls.
>He's probably a little embarrassed since you're siblings.
>Well, it is pretty rough for me when people talk about my little bro.

>But if I had a big sister like Senpai, I wouldn't want her to get a boyfriend or girlfriend either.
>I'd want to always watch over her like Kiko-chan does.
>You dropped a disturbing name all of a sudden...

p10
>Taking out the kiss scene made it much better.
>Students have gotta stay wholesome, after all.
>Like you're one to talk, Koto...

>Got a moment?
>Huh?
