Spoiler Summary/Synopsis:

Kaname manages to convince Nasa to take Tsukasa on a clothes shopping trip. Once convinced, Nasa then wants to see his wife in lots of different clothing. When Tsukasa learns that Nasa shops at the bargain bin, she decides they will go to the fashion district of Harajuku.

Inside one of the clothing stores, Tsukasa tries on an outfit with a shorter skirt. Nasa likes it, but doesn’t want other men looking at her. This pleases Tsukasa, who then has Nasa pick out clothing for her to try on. His tastes are cute, but more chaste.

Next, they head to the underwear store. Nasa is worried about looking bad in such a store. Tsukasa reassures him, but as his mind is on seeing her in her underwear, Tsukasa changes her mind. She has him sit on a bench and wait. He looks at a nearby bra and is stunned to see it costs ¥12,800. However, Tsukasa picks stuff that costs much less.

As they walk to the next shop, Nasa asks if he can see her in her underwear sometime. She’s says he can do so anytime he wants. However, the conversation embarrassed them both so much, they changed topic to Nasa’s clothes.

Thoughts/Review:

As usual, I’m way behind on writing about Tonikaku Cawaii chapter 36. But I have to say it was a fun chapter that brought back memories for me.

Kaname — The Story Pusher

It is funny how Kaname has become the character that pushes along the different stories Hata-sensei wants to tell. Hata-sensei wants to do a chapter showing a young married couple on a clothes shopping expedition. So he has Kaname come out and tell Nasa, “You should buy your wife some new clothes.” ?

Of course, Kaname has to go further than that to convince Nasa that this is a good strategy. But it is moments like this that make Kaname such a fun character.

The Shopping Trip

I’ve never been married, but once upon a time in what seems a lifetime ago, I did date a girl who asked me to come with her on a shopping trip. Personally, I hate going shopping. However, when a really cute girl asks you to go shopping with her, that’s what you do. ?

I have to admit that it was nice seeing a cute girl who’s trying on all kinds of outfits for you. But this was in the days before smart phones, so it wasn’t all fun and games. In fact, there were long stretches of tedium as she went from store to store, looking at EVERYTHING her size. So basically, I had to pay for those short moments of seeing her in sun dresses and swim suits (no underwear though) with long moments of, “KYAAAAAA! Going shopping is BORING!” ???

Final Thoughts and Conclusion

Since I need to get a move on, I’ll wrap up reviewing Tonikaku Cawaii chapter 36 and put in some final thoughts.

• Another admission I have to make is that I laughed at the trek to the underwear store. I do recall those days when I was eighteen. The underwear department can be overwhelming for sure. ?
• Shiranui got a cameo on the 2-page color splash images with Tsukasa. Funny how the Hayate the Combat Butler characters keep showing up. Not that I’m complaining, mind you.

In the end, Tonikaku Cawaii chapter 36 was a cute, fun chapter showing only the best bits of a guy going clothes shopping with his girl.
