I was wrong - this is apparently Hoppo's first meeting with Katsuragi. No wonder Katsuragi calls her onee-chan.

Also, this makes it even more significant when Katsuragi offers Hoppo onee-chan the strawberry off her cake. Up until now, that privilege was only for Zui.

Also shows why Hoppo calls Katsuragi "Raggi" - it's how Katsuragi introduced herself. And since Zuikaku was basically Katsuragi's oneesama figure.... offering strawberries acknowledged the onee-chan relationship.

Except she's saying "Zui!" I think she's thinking, with toddler-logic, that if she holds out Zuikaku's favorite treat, Zui will show up to claim it.

Abyssals sure love their caves

Mithiwithi and I were talking about the following bonus where she does the same for Hoppo, just line she did for Zuikaku in this page and the following one.

At least this one isn't right under the Naval Base.

Now we need a better quality version of this page.

Going to approve this one for now. Hopefully a better version comes along, but it'd be a shame to lose this for now.

Where is Hisahiko selling his book again?

This was from Haruna Weather 4, I think, which sold at C88 in the summer. Paracite has a physical copy.

What you say is true - this strawberry was meant for Zui. But our point is that in any context, the strawberry is for her oneechan - which explains the significance of the strawberry in post #2111644, which is for Hoppo oneechan.

Haruna Weather 5, I believe. Well, it's not in the 4 or 6 that I have in front of me, so I've gotta assume that it's 5. I would scan it, but I a. spent too much on doujin at comiket, b. Japan's WoFs costs a ridiculous amount of money and c. Managed to drive my car into the mud bad enough to need a power shovel to extract it.

Which leads me to enough of a budget deficit that I can't afford to -rent- let alone -buy- a book scanner.

Ouch. I didn't think the mud this time of year was that bad. My condolences.

No, no, I was an idiot and drove down a back-road logging path, thinking it was the next road up the way. Just means a month of TKG for breakfast instead of anything substantial.

At least TKG is tastier than KD over here. Vegemite on toast might work, too.
