Year 2, Class 7, Classroom: 16:20 (After School) — Thunderstorm It's still raining heavily, so Satou, Taira, and Azuma are hanging out at Suzuki & Tani's desks, not knowing when to best leave the school. Suzuki: The rain really isn't letting up, huh? Tani: Yeah. Taira: Maybe a harbinger of storms is hiding amongst us? 1 Tani: Don't…

Year 2, Class 7, Classroom: 13:30 (Lunch) — Rainy In middle school, Taira's homeroom teacher passed out "communication notebooks" where students were supposed to write a few sentences about what had happened at school that day for the teacher.

Hallway in Front of the Staff Office: 13:05 (Lunch) — Rainy Honda leaves the staff room after returning the key to the projector they used in 4th period.

Chapter 2 A-side: Was that girl we saw at the Saturday performance Class 8's Nishi? This section is written from Nishi's POV. Nishi calls Honda "Hon-chan," while Honda calls her "Nisshi."

Interlude 1 Sato, next is P.E.—!! ...or so I thought. This part is from Satou's POV.

Year 2, Class 7, Classroom: 10:55 (Third period) — Rainy Watanabe: Suzuki's definitely got the magic touch. I'm jealous. Right after Suzuki declared that the skies…
I'm not going to bother with translating these character pages as it's all obvious things you would know if you watched the show. These images are also just my screenshots, so we'll have to make do with whatever quality Bookwalker wanted to give me. Unfortunately, zooming in on their reader app doesn't actually seem to do anything; the image just gets more pixelated. This novel is written like…

Which basically comes down to a staring contest, so Choco…

Here Comes a Black Witch!! — Choco's Debut Volume — Here's a series I love that's pretty obscure to English speakers: Kuromajo-san ga Tooru!! — or translated, Here Comes a Black Witch!! It's a silly Magical Girl series, yet it doesn't bother to adhere to typical tropes for its genre. Choco has basically no friends and is essentially a side character trying to live quietly in a classroom of main…
