"Itsuki, you have dishonored our family" "I'm sorry father" "If that's true then cut your hair" "but I don't have ha--" "then cut your tail!"



Is Seppuku, not sudoku. This is a sudoku:

Those Americans... always taking everything so lightly.

But still, studying there sounds nice.

Yeppers, thems was the joke.


"You're a disgrace for our entire clan, son-san. There's already a 3 in that row!"

"Me love you loooong time, daddy-dono."

"Oh, I can't be angry with you if you play the cute-kun!"

And the shirt tucks into his fundoshi.
I was trying to imagine Itsuki in pants, but nope.

But it's been established that Itsuki is a great student who, in the past, would be the one to set the curve. So to assume he gets 100 or darn near it on every other test is not a long shot.

Itsuki's parent = my parents in nutshell.
they expect 90 and when I get 90 all they say is good job,,,, I got 98 on IT class, what ma parents say is "well done,,".

I laughed soooo hard on this strip

You expect to get rewarded for something you're supposed to do?

no, it just make me feel like hard effort doesn't make my parents proud... that's it
tho I'm proud of my self. =P

incorrect. a 90 is above average, so "something you're supposed to do" is get a B or even a C. an A is something that should be rewarded.

You should get good grades for yourself, not for your parents.
That being said Itsuki is a bit too stereotypical. :I

you should also get a promotion at work for yourself, or graduate college for yourself, but people still celebrate and congratulate you.

I'm not saying you shouldn't get congratulated, but you shouldn't expect it.
It's nice if they do, but it is certainly not mandatory.

When I was younger, I cared a lot about my parents' opinion about my grades, which often led me to downfalls since I'm a person who takes words too deep into his heart. That's why I started to think about my own satisfaction of grades I got, therefore I knew what to expect from myself and if I was dissatisfied, where I should correct myself.
Remember, you study mainly for yourself. Not only for your parents. Because you forge your own future.

I stopped trying to make my parents proud when I figured out it was impossible. Thank God I care enough about academics to still try my hardest in school.

I can't see this arc lasting more than two weeks

10-4 that guys
