To be fair, Hina has improved greatly as a human being since the time-skip.

She was able to hold down a part-time waitressing job and endear herself to the customers in chapter 52 (http://kissmanga.com/Manga/Hinamatsuri/Vol-010-Ch-052--Is-There-Anything-You-Want-?id=262508).

She spent her own money to buy a present for Nitta in Chapter 52.5 (http://kissmanga.com/Manga/Hinamatsuri/Vol-010-Ch-052-005--Hina-s-Feelings?id=310684) i.e. she thought about someone other than herself.

She noticed threats to Nitta's safety and safeguarded him from harm in Chapter 55 (http://kissmanga.com/Manga/Hinamatsuri/Vol-011-Ch-055--Nitta-Yoshifumi--The-Sacrilegious-Brute-of-a-Man-?id=311000).

Chapter 56 showed that she got along well with every clique / group of students in her high school (http://kissmanga.com/Manga/Hinamatsuri/Vol-011-Ch-056--An-Average-Day-in-Teihen-Senior-High?id=311639).

A good chapter as always.

The smart move was to choose Anzu though.

I'm glad we're getting new translations, but these past couple chapters have seemed a bit "off" readability-wise. It makes me miss the days of Norway-Scans, no matter how many Norway jokes they shoehorned in.

Even the WhyNot scans from a little farther back are borderline incomprehensible as soon as a speech bubble says something more complicated than "Oh, look at this!".

It's kinda sad that i feel mostly just confused instead of amused after a recent chapter, which might be part of the reason why i haven't enjoyed the story as much since the time skip. I re-read some earlier chapters and they are still fantastic, when the dialogue actually flows instead of every speech bubble, even those in the same panel, having seemingly no relation to each other.

I just have to say I laughed my rear end off when they interfered. What a tremendous chapter. Who thinks up this kind of stuff?

Is it really all that surprising that Hina is not normal considering her background? I wish we could learn more about what it was like for her before Nitta found her.

From what the other espers have said, she's always been like that. Probably comes partly from being so powerful, though. I imagine that let her off the hook for a lot of stuff back home.

Hina puppets Nitta again in the latest chapter and the results are absolutely beautiful - http://kissmanga.com/Manga/Hinamatsuri/Vol-012-Ch-063--The-monster-has-yet-to-wake?id=347200

Also, an omake flashback chapter about young Nitta and why he became so good at housework and administration - http://bato.to/reader#1f345b0be2bc9920

The best part about reading this omake was that the chapter right after is Hitomi goes to New York!
