Last time, I thought the 39th was the most recent chapter. Turns out that I'm mistaken because the 40th chapter was already out. And just today, I saw chapter 41 out. Oh I'm so delighted to see this much Kimi ni Todoke sweetness in just a few days (after those pretty angsty previous chapters. Kazehaya, you idiot! *hugs*)[ Kimi ni Todoke - Chapter 40 ]At Chizu's house...Girls keep working on costumes. During on their work, one girl confesses other girls of her love to one of their classmate boy (his name is Andy). She asks Sawako for her adivice since she's been already known as a love consultant. Sawako wants to cheer her sincere love by holding her hands. They see isas Sawako is transfering mysterial lover magic into her. Everyone applauses. Ayane says in a low voice " No. She is just feeling of like-minded...".At boys' house..."Why am I making a float here now...?" Kaze screams."Why? Because we are so behind!" Classmates, who don't know what's going on with Kaze laugh at his comment.Kaze smailed.In the morning..While everyone sleeps on floors, Sawako cannot sleep but holding her phone that received Kaze's message "Please allow me to talk with you tomorrow again." Her reply is as simple as "Yes".For parade Sawako gets makeup by Ayane and turns to be more adult/sexy look.Everyone is surprised at her realistic figure. Even Chizu checked if Sawako has feets. (It is believed that Japanese ghosts don't have legs.)Kaze is looking for Sawako.Ayane tells him that she was talking with other girl at hallway. Ayane also tells Kaze "The Kimono you are wearing now was made by Sawako"At the hallway, Pin tells Kaze that he made Sawako to leave for ground to get ready for parade."What? Are you rushing to be dumped again?" Pin's teasing does not bother Kaze any longer. "Whatever!"Kaze's excitedly rushing to the ground. Pin isn't happy for him as he likes to watch Kaze upset.Finally Kaze finds Sawako. "Kuronuma!" He calls her out.Sawako turns.Kaze's heart is leaped when he sees Sawako's face with her makeup on."That's why I don't want to expose her to anyone..." He sighs.At this moment, as ususal, Joe appears!"Kazehaya! Should I leap like this during the parade?"But Kaze is not as Kaze yesterday."I want to talk to Kuronuma now!!!"Ryu pulls Joe, who still does not understand what's going on, to the different direction away..Kaze told her that he has things to say to Sawako one more time.Sawako interrupts. "May I say first?"...Before I still have courage to say..." I was very very happy at New Year's Eve. But then, I was scared. I wanted you to be mine, but also did not want you to dislike me."Sawako continues.Although something might end once I confess to you, "I want to rebuild our relationship all over again from this point."Times up. It's parade time." Please look at the summary of my whole year experience. I will show my scary acting and be helpful to everyone!"Kaze looks at her and tells her again the word that he said before but did not reach her."I like you!"He does not care if there are people around and listen to it.The words reach to Sawako. She blushes.Ayane and Chizu smile nearby.At the parade,Under Pin's direction, Sawako plays as a ghost, delivering a juice to each judge as counting "one juice... two juice..." as if she counts as a plate. (Note: there is a famous Japanese haunted story that a woman ghost appears from a well where she was forced to commit suicide due to the unreasonable accusation on her for breaking valuable plates.. It is told that when the ghost appears she is always counting plates like "one plate....two plates....")The announcement for the result.Although Sawako's acting receives good reputation, their class gets disqualified since giving juice to judges was considered as a bribe. Pin complained but everyone else feels satisfied with their performance and accomplishments. They talks about after party and gradually leaves.Kaze and Sawako stand infront and look each other.Kaze: " It's not different. It's the same, isn't it?"Tears overflows on Sawako's face."Everything, Kazehaya-kun. I want everything."Kaze gets closer to her with smile,"It's the same..... It's like a dream..... Finally I reach you...."He touches Sawako's teary cheek. Sawako gets surprised and looks at his eyes.They look at each other and smile...---- Does this reach to you? I like you more than anyone else -----[ Kimi ni Todoke - Chapter 41 ]At Sawako’s houseSawako’s father and mother are relaxed in a living room having a cup of tea.Sawa’s dad “Where is Sawako?”Sawa’s mom “She left for after-party of the school festival."Sawa’s dad feels lonely.Mom smiles and says. “You will feel lonely more than now when Sawako has a boyfriend.”Dad. “!!!!”Chizu and Ayane are walking to the party venue.“I wonder what Sawa and Kaze are doing now”“They said they are coming together to the party”“They might not be coming”“Gah! I want to punch him, if he would do so!! (lol)"Kaze is standing at the street waiting for Sawako.“Have you waited for a long time?” Sawako rushes to him.“No. I just came here.” Kaze smiles at her.They walk slowly together. Sawako looks up to peek Kaze’s face secretly, but Kaze is also looking at Sawako. Catching his eye, Sawako get flustered.“What’s that reaction? It hurts me." Kaze smiles.“I’m sorry” Sawako hastily apologize. “I am still nervous.”“Me, too.” Kaze smiles at her.The smile comforts Sawako. (He is the same…)At the party venue,Joe and other friend are reenacting the scene carried on at the school yard in front of everyone today.“It’s the same, isn’t it?”“Everything, Kazehaya-kun. I want everything…”“It’s like a dream….”Seeing Joe and his friend’s acting of their drama, Kaze and Sawako get frozen at the entrance door.“Oh, Kazehaya. I was just explaining what happened to everyone who wasn’t there.”Joe continues. “Hey, I now remember. Yesterday at the classroom, they are…”“JOE!!! DO YOU WANNA DIE??? (Angry!!!!!)” Kaze threaten Joe.Questions are thrown to them from all over.“Uh…. In sum…… Well! ”Kaze is blushed, but with serious look, showed victory sign to them (It equals thumbs-up sign in Japan).Roar is raised from crowd. “How did you do, Sadako?” “Is this due to the power of your black magic?” Questions are now shifting to Sawako.“NO! It’s not!!” Kaze interrupts.“Because I am the one who is deeply crushed on her!!”His bold remarks shocks everyone and the roar from crowd gets even louder.Sawako is also shocked at his comment along everyone else.“You too? (surprised that much?) Seeing her face, Ayane asked Sawako.Kaze gets worried at her reaction. He bends over to her and asks“You know what it means.”Sawako blushes and nods.“ Whew! I felt heat. I am so relieved!”Boys starts to prey to Sawako wishing for accomplishment of their love.Party continues. Classmates request Kaze and Sawako sing a duet.Sawako: “I can sing Ginkoi”.Classmate: “G…Gin??”Sawako: “Or Izakaya”Classmates: “…!!!”Classmates get frozen to hear the name of the songs Sadako listed since they are all a couple of generations old. (She never joined the same age group gathering, so don't know what songs are popular among young people?)Yet, Sawako is still enjoying these conversation with her classmates. She is happy to feel that she has her place in a class gathering.After the party, everyone decides to go to beach.On the way to walk to the beach, they are kept being teased.Ayane: "Hey, don’t you need more space between you guys? Don’t get too close to our cutie."Chizu: "He can’t help it. Because “It’s like a dream…” HAHAHAHAA!!!!!!!(LOL) !!"Kaze: (///They are so annoying..///)Many students from other classes including Kurumi are at the beach. Kent who did not come to his class party is also there chatting with girls from other class.Pin is consulted by a girl student.“Teacher. I got heartbroken.;; (by Kazehaya?)Class-D students have arrived. Finding Sawako, Kent calls her out.Kent: “Sadako-chan. I am so happy for you!”Sawako: “Shi…Shisho…(means teacher)..” Sawako looks at him with appreciation.Kent starts explaining to Kaze that Sawako misunderstood that Kaze likes another girl.Kaze: So, who said that to Kuronuma?Kent: ……////Kaze: ~~~~You caused this mess!!!!! (Angry!)And, One more thing! She is not Sadako, she is Sawako!!!Kent: Oh, so you don’t mind if I call her Sawako-Chan?Kaze: !! …..MmmKent smiles.Kent: It’s OK. I am calling her (Sadako) as her nickname.Seeing Kaze and Sawa, Pin also wants to join in teasing him.Hiding behind Kaze, he copies Kaze’s voice and says it loud.Kaze (Actually Pin): “Kuronuma! Please marry me!”Sawako turns in red and reply: "Let me think about it for a while."Kaze (real): "Eh? W, wait, Kuronuma…"He hastily holds her hand.Sawako brushes and say it loud: "Please let me think about it~~~~~!!!!"She runs away.Kaze stands motionless.Pin advises to KazePin: “ Have you said everything clear to Kuronuma? She is not sharp about these things.”Sawako is sitting on the beach and calling to her father on the phone. There are no people around.Sawako: “Yes. I will be home before it gets too late. ……. Uh, father. What do you feel when I marry?”Father: "!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"After hanging up the phone, she finds that Kaze is approaching to her.He explains that he did not say the propose a little while ago, but Pin did.Sawako tells him that she knew that was not Kaze but Pin’s joke. Also she explains that her reply “please let me think about it” does not mean that she wants to pause it, but she wants to imagine (dream) about it.Kaze feels relieved and smiles.Then, he gets serious look on his face. He remembers the thing to makes it clear.“’ You know what it means’ is not enough. We cannot move forward by skipping to tell such an important thing.”Kaze faces Sawako and gazes at her. Sawako cannot move. They look at each other.“PLEASE, GO STEADY WITH ME!”“I promise I will always care for you!”Always…. Always….Kaze’s words echo in Sawako’s head.She blushes and squeezes out her answer, “Yes”.They smile each other.Suddenly Sawako realizes that she has something to tell Kaze.“I haven’t told an important thing to you, yet. Please don’t dislike me.”Kaze nervously looks at Sawako.“When I look at Kazehaya-kun, I cannot help but harboring a secret desire.”Hearing Sawa’s comment, Kaze feels released from his tension. He squats down and says“How can I dislike you…”“I envy Sawako” Chizu and Ayane are looking at them from the distance away.Then, one girl is walking away from the crowds. No one else but Kent and Ayane notice Kurumi.Continue to the next chapter….[ FANGURLING ]I thought Sawako confessing had been the sweetest but Kazehaya confessing in front of everyone certainly beats that one! But you think it's just because he's very proud of loving this girl that he doesn't give a damn of what others will think about it?In my opinion, he did that to imply to everyone: "I love this girl and she is so mine. Noboday touch her! She is my possession and I won't share her to everyone else! You can't ever excuse yourself by saying you're not aware of that!"Kazehaya is not exactly a 100% nice guy . . . but he's pretty possesive . . . seriously. But instead of annoying it made him adorable. Hahaha!My other favorite part in chapter 40 was the last scene. He wiped away her tears and they smiled. Simply . . .DAAAAAAAAAWWWWWW!!!!!The latest chapter had been so hilarious~ The marriage thing had been so epic:BWAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!!!!!!!!!!I LOVE ALL THE CHARACTERS WHO TORTURE KAZEHAYA THIS WAY!!!!!!!!Anyway, that scene of them at the beach had been really sweet~ Kazehaya wants to go straight to the point . . . because this series had so many isunderstandings already. Bwahehehehe . . .I am also very amused on the part of Kazehaya doing OTL. Bwahahhahahahahahaha!!!!!!And my favorite line is when Kazehaya said: “Because I am the one who has a deep crush on her!!”. That line is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO true~ Oh Kazehaya *huggles*Hopefully, Kazehaya's fangirls won't ruin the happy couple in the next chapter. I hope Kurumi had already changed, and not back tohow she was when she had first appeared.Notes/Credits:- Thank wildakljp for the english summaries~- scans aren't mine of course
