Disclaimer: Kareshi Kanojo no Jijou is owned by Tsuda Masami and Hakusensha. This is a fan
translation and no money is being made off of this.
Notes: These translations are *loose* translations. I've translated them so they make sense,
not as much as you may understand everything word-for-word. Why? One, it doesn't always
make too much sense. Two, I've been told I can be too strict on it sometimes, and I should
just translate to vernacular. Mind you, I'm still trying to be as accurate as possible. If
you've found a translation that is closer to the dictionary meaning, yet still makes sense,
please don't hesitate to inform me. That's why I've put up the ROMAJI alongside my loose
translations: so you can catch me and help me fix it, if necessary. :) Thanks.
Another note: I've left expressions as they are.. More untranslated vocab will be placed at the
bottom of this page. The subjective particle has been left as [ha]. Yes, it's actually there,
and I didn't just put it in for fun. :) All Katakana are capitalized.
: spoken
* floating text
: (thought) thought
