Watamote ch165: Since I'm Not Popular, My Final High School Summer Break Starts Tomorrow

p1
>>July 19th
>>Summer break starts today!

>They've got a new arcade machine, right?
>Already beat it yesterday.

>Kuroki-san, make sure you do what we discussed today during summer break, okay?
>I'll call you this evening.
>Y-...
>Yeah.

>I've got plans with Yoshida-san today, so go on home without me, Yuri.
>What plans?
>Ah, well, career choice stuff...
>Hmm...

p2
>Shall we go home?
>Yeah, sure.

>You haven't gone home yet, right? Come to the bus stop by the park.
>It's Nemo...

>Over here!

>Where are we going?
>It's summer break tomorrow, so it's gotta be that.
>?
>>Seaside Bus

p3
>The beach...
>It's the beach...
>I came here last year too...

>We're aiming for a different college from you, Nemoto-san, so we don't have time to be playing around.
>No, Aoyama and Morinaga are about the same level.
>Besides, we didn't come here to play.

>It's summer break tomorrow, so just studying normally would be boring, right?

>So I figured we might as well studying while enjoying the summer with the beach by our side.
>We don't come here often since it's a 10 minute bus ride, right?

p4
>It's hot and sweaty here. I'd be able to concentrate better if we were studying in the library...
>Even coolers have a summer vibe, y'know.
>...Just try listening, Tamura-san.

>You can hear the waves, right?
>What about it?

>The sound of waves send out alpha waves which improve your concentration and relieve your stress.
>That's why studying by the beach would be the most optimum solution.
>...

p5
>Couldn't we just study while listening to the sound of waves on a smartphone?
>>Natural wave sounds to study to.
>>330,000 views
>Real waves sound better, right?

>What about you, Tomoko?
>Eh?

>To be honest, it's not that bad.
>It may be Chiba's beach, but stopping by a beach on the way home from school feels like youth.
>Hmm...

>See? Kuro gets me.
>You're always complaining, Tamura-san.
>It's because you won't shut up about it, Nemoto-san.
>But still...

>You're really talkative, huh, Tamura.

>That's not true...
>Ah-chan... I know you mean well, but...
>You never really talked before so I had no idea.
>Gloomy silent types always have things unneccessarily pointed out about them.
>Like "you're a real fast talker" or "Ah, OO-san can smile too", or more commonly "OO-kun is funny"...

p6
>...I'm thirsty, so I'm going to buy some drinks.
>Ah, I'll come with. You don't know where the vending machine is, right?
>You guys want anything?
>Pocari.
>Anything tea-related is fine with me.

>...What are you doing?
>Well, there's no wind today, so the waves are pretty quiet.

>It's the sound of chasing waves.
>It'll help us concentrate.
>It's real waves, so it's fine, right?

>...May as well throw in some summer sounds of my own.
>Eh?

p7
>This is just annoying.
>Ahahaha

>Fu...
>!?

>Tamura smiled.
>Look, Hina.
>It's that "Hey look, (that loner) OO-kun is smiling" kinda phrase...
>...Ah-chan...
>...

>Even though we'll be studying for exams, it's pretty nice that we don't have to go to school starting tomorrow.
>Yeah.
>Eh!?

>What?
>Ah, well... Nemo aside, I kinda thought you had people you wanted to go to school with everyday, Okada-san.

>No, it's a break, so of course taking a break would be better.
>Ah, yeah, I guess so...

p9
>It's a break, so I just wanna get with some close buds and laze around.
>Studying aside.

>School has all sorts of bothersome stuff, right?
>...In many ways.
>...Yeah.

>Well,
>I guess everyone would feel that way.
>I only just now
>realised what an obvious thing it is, though...

>It's hot!

>Break time! Let's get in the ocean!
>Huh?

p10
>You come here too, Tamura-san!
>It's cool and nice~
>It's dirty, so I'll pass.
>...

>Take that, Kuro!
>Uwah! That's dirty!
>...Stop saying that it's dirty. That hurts, y'know.

>It's not that dirty. I've been by the harbor and it's the same thing!!
>It's dirtier towards the fort.
>Even if you give me comparisons...

>I wanna take a photo of all four of us, so you ask her, Kuro.
>I'm sure Tamura-san will come if you ask her.
>Hm...

>Ah, Yuri-chan.
>What?

p11
>It's really shallow, so it'll be fine.
>It just to the tip of your ankles. Just the tip. We don't need to go all the way in, okay?
>What's with that phrasing...?

>If you say so, Tomoko...
>With the way she asked you!!?

>Looks like there's seaweed here. Getting wrapped up in it feels gross.
>Come here, you two!

>Kuro and Tamura-san, get in a little closer.

>Ah...!?

p12
>That was your fault, Nemoto-san...
>No, you're to blame too...
>May as well just take it here.
>You get in the water too, Ah-chan.
>Seriously...?

p13
>Our skirts still aren't dry yet.
>But at least we get to study until the evening so it's a good feeling, right?
>They're gonna reek of the ocean once they dry...
>W-Well, it is summer break, so it'll be fine.
>We won't need to wear it starting tomorrow, after all.

>Ah, the baseball team won.
>We'll have to cheer for them tomorrow... in the morning...
>Eh!?

>It's all your fault, Nemoto-san...
>It was fun so it's fine, right!? Geez!
