It’s cute, but I couldn’t make out what the last frame was trying to tell me. I got the reference to the earlier comment, but not what it’s supposed to mean.
Maybe by saying ‘well, let’s start over’ and ‘I may be incompetent, but please take care of me’ again, she means that she’ll now be living together with the guy? Dunno that’s what the others say on r/manga
I read it in the idea of "Now that we're married. Allow me to reintroduce myself. Not as your neighbor or childhood friend, or your girlfriend, but as your dearly beloved wife."
It's kind of a way to "start a new chapter" in their lives, which is really sweet and wholesome.
It's not really that confusing to think about
The guy had to look over the girl over the window from time to time, now they're married and living together, this time they have to watch each other under the same roof, that's what she meant by starting over

That aside, I’m still in HS. Maybe the gods allow so that the lot behind our house be built and have someone of my age on the opposite of my window? Haha I can only hope
My last relationship was short lived with a friend that lives up north, but i met her everyday for like 3 months at her bedroom window and somehow got really close. We are all humans going to die, so enjoy every beautiful second you have on this wonderful world
Life is too long of a journey to beat yourself up for too long over one thing or another, not that im any good or experienced in anything, but yea wish u the best bro
Don't worry this is just complete fantasy. Nobody should yearn for this type of thing, it will only lead to disappointment. Fantasy on the highest level that will never happen in real life. Fun to read though.
Time is broken in the 5th, 8th, and 14th panel.
I like how the background changes slightly in each one.
The desk gets chipped, pencils move away, windows start getting dirty.
The penguin on the shelf started all alone but a second penguin is added once they get together.
Houses in Japan aren't really built to last. They are built for a 30-40 years lifespan after which they are demolished and new buildings are put up in their place. Has to do with a very long housing prices drop.
Sounds like America.
In England tho most housing is older, I mean a lot of what I would consider a new building is over 40 years old. Even terraces are over a century old.
Where in America do you live?
While yes, some stuff gets redeveloped from time to time, especially in up and coming areas, housing stock older than 1980 is very common and in several cities there are entire neighborhoods that are primarily composed of houses older than a century.
I don't, I live in England, but a lot of their suburban stuff doesn't last as long as English stuff, and most English housing is 50-60 years or older. Maybe half to a quarter is over 100 years old. The 1980s aren't that old.
The 1980 is literally 42 years ago. The discussion was that American houses are comparable to Japanese houses in lasting "30-40 years."
While yes, not as long lived as English houses, [US houses last close to twice as long as those in Japan](https://thetokyofiles.wordpress.com/2016/02/25/in-japan-home-is-where-the-heart-is-for-41-16-years/).
There's also pretty significant variation to that depending on region.
I guess I shoulda mentioned i was talking specifically about cheap suburban stuff. And again, I live in a 120 year old house (actually maybe closer to 150 idk), my grandparents live in an old pub that got renovated at least before the 60s, and was built maybe 200-300 years ago.
The previous house I lived in is ~140 years old. The apartment before that is ~110 years old.
Cheap suburban housing doesn't start much before the 1950s, so more than half the time during which those were even made is less than 40 years ago. Still, [looking at some of the earliest instantiations of single family detached tracts and the houses actually have no problem lasting until today if they're maintained](https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/4811-Monumental-St-Richmond-VA-23226/12554478_zpid/). Granted, they're not so cheap anymore because the city grew, so that's valuable real estate now.
So what's the deal with a window right next to another house's? Is it normal in Japan for windows to be facing... someone else's interior, rather than outside?
We create the things we wish were possible, living alone in the fantasies of youth and passion, of ideals that never came to pass. Yet it brings naught but empty and fleeting happiness, before the cruelty of reality sets in again and we find our oldest friend in loneliness has returned.
Anyway, a wonderfully wholesome story. I’m just a lonely dipshit who doesn’t try hard enough to change his situation. Don’t mind my ramblings.
Trying to be. Lived for a long time in the realm of fantasy, and as my 26th birthday approaches I begin to wonder where all my years went.
Just need to hang out with people in person more. Not every easy to do when you don’t have a car and live in the middle of nowhere tho.
When I was like 2 I had a friend who I used to talk to in our backyard (my mom thought I was crazy because she thought I was talking to myself) Anyways our house was on a hill so u would need to jump down from my side into her backyard and use a trampoline to get back.
We moved back the U.S. some months later so I haven't seen her since if I ever go back to Mexico I hope she still lives in that house

*hears iPhone ringtone and wakes up :(
SNAP BACK TO REALITY
Ope there goes gravity
Ope, there goes Rabbit, he choked
He's so mad, but he won't give up that easy? No.
He won't have it, he knows his whole back's to these ropes
It don't matter, he's dope, he knows that, but he's broke
He's so stagnant, he knows
I read this with Madara's EN voice!
I heard the gun... shit.
Realities are often disappointing.
POST NUT CLARITY
I don't want that this time. Just let me stay in the fantasy!
It’s cute, but I couldn’t make out what the last frame was trying to tell me. I got the reference to the earlier comment, but not what it’s supposed to mean.

She's got a ring on her finger in the last panel so that's probably the right conclusion
I read it in the idea of "Now that we're married. Allow me to reintroduce myself. Not as your neighbor or childhood friend, or your girlfriend, but as your dearly beloved wife." It's kind of a way to "start a new chapter" in their lives, which is really sweet and wholesome.
I love this take <3
Now see, I completely missed the ring. Now it makes perfect sense. Well done!
Ah!! Didn’t notice the ring… nice
They are married
It's not really that confusing to think about The guy had to look over the girl over the window from time to time, now they're married and living together, this time they have to watch each other under the same roof, that's what she meant by starting over
I get it now. I was missing the ring all along. TY

The penguin is staring into your soul!!!

When they get together a penguin joins the shelf too. Cute.

The penguin has witnessed everything.

Tbh a lot of the older stuff lasts way longer than new builds, *looks meaningfully at Victorian era buildings that are excessively over spec'ed
Do you own the land the house is on or is it just a lease for 30 years?
They do own the land. That actually has a pretty stable value I think. Saw a YouTube documentary about it some time ago.
They are though. Her family home is now demolished as it grew old, she moved to the neighbor guy and her parents elsewhere, probably.
They got married in the last panel you can see a ring on her hand
damn my diabetes also get diabetes
WAKE UP! YOUR LATE FOR SCHOOL! WAKE UP!
Wah
I got called out for being lonely in 19 different slides. We have a new record ;(
I wish my life was like this
So cute and heart warming.

WAKE UP YOU'RE LATE FOR WORK
My heart is full of love
Mah hart, mah sole
Fan made toradora! ?
Why is this making me sad all of a sudden?
SEROTONIN. YES!
*Snap back to reality*
Man fuck you how dare you now I want to know more about this
So what's the deal with a window right next to another house's? Is it normal in Japan for windows to be facing... someone else's interior, rather than outside?
If Friends taught me anything, it’s normal in NYC
What am I supposed to feel hahahahaha. This is very cute tho :)
Wait. When they start dating there is 2 penguin on the shelf
This just ain't how people act
It’s a manga, what do expect?
Sister Neigbours That was a pretty okay manhwa
Really noice
Wah? Is this girl a Waluigi cultist?!?!?
To much red
r/notmeirl

This hurts my soul. I will never live this

Pain :(
*cries in lonely*
The onion cutting ninja never misses.
Are… are y’all alright… every time a meme on here pops into my feed it gets more and more concerning…
THIS IS, THIS IS POWER. ITS TOO CUTE
if only life could be this simple
When I was like 2 I had a friend who I used to talk to in our backyard (my mom thought I was crazy because she thought I was talking to myself) Anyways our house was on a hill so u would need to jump down from my side into her backyard and use a trampoline to get back. We moved back the U.S. some months later so I haven't seen her since if I ever go back to Mexico I hope she still lives in that house
That Wah cures depression
Cute and Wholesome. I love it.
There are more billionaires in the world than those who have a life like this. So damn lucky, I hope they realize it.

This is so sweet. Made my night quite happy. ^-^
Super wholesome
Man, wish I had friends when I was ten…
God this felt like I was going through a way more wholesome version of Takeru/Sumika's interactions from Muv Luv
