Yeah, its shaping up to be pretty interesting. With the tags that were on it initially on Batoto, it looked like a light shoujo ai with an actual plot and interesting leads, but its turned out to be a lot more than that.

You'd think she'd put all that effort into finding a possible world where Yukari isn't dead.

Its not like she can move between worldlines herself. I'm sure there are plenty of Gakus who interpreted the warning about Yukari dying the opposite way and kept her from joining Jaunt, but they're irrelevant since they have no need to avenge someone who isn't dead to them. The author could make up an explanation about Gaku not being connected to them because they don't have a unified goal with her and throw in the word quantum here and there to make it sound convincing if that question arises though.

A relevant blog post from the guys who were translating it. Amounts to "the translators for Qualia aren't translating poo poo right now, and its writing is really tough to translate so we can't just get anyone to do it". Essentially its stalled and they don't know when if ever they'll get it done.

I kind of assume the resolution will involve Gaku actually talking to Yukari rather than just suffering alone, as that's how similar plotlines always end in animes. Granted, none of them have protagonists go quite this far...

Hrm, perhaps I misremembered but Nanami certainly did bully Yukari and seemed to sorta try to talk Gaku into staying away, its also a little weird how she was just as knowledgeable regarding all the quantum physics stuff.

I'm guessing he's assuming that the Nanami that knew about quantum physics and tried to keep Gaku away from Yukari was being controlled by Gaku as she is now. Not sure if that's what the author intended or not, but its somewhat plausible.

Looks like someone just tossed the completed chapter onto Batoto credited as translated by Something Awful.

These are pretty much what I originally expected the series to be at the very start.

Yep. Dumb bro-con romcom. Its funny sometimes if you can put up with that.

she was surprised Yukari was aware of her, I think.

I kind of got the impression that it wasn't going to happen this time around but I dunno. Maybe the epilogue will show what happens next?

Gaku gave agency back to Yukari and that magically saves her?

I guess. Also while Yukari has agency, Gaku honestly telling Yukari she doesn't want her to leave simply because she doesn't want her to leave instead of because she has future knowledge of her death would contribute. And then there's the thing where Gaku befriended Alice and everyone knows friendship solves all problems in anime.

I thought the thread title was from the manga already. And even if not, the guy translating it posts here, he presumably sees that line every time reads the thread.

This thread was posted in June 2013 and hasn't been renamed.
