Tonikaku Cawaii Chapter 165
Tonikaku Kawaii Fly Me to the Moon 165
トニカクカワイイ 165

Spoiler Summary/Synopsis:

Nasa sees “naked apron” trending on Twitter and begins to ponder it. As he does, he speaks allowed, letting Tsukasa know what’s on his mind. As they talk about the subject, Tsukasa suddenly expresses an interest in seeing one for real. Aya shows up and volunteers to bring hers out.

Aya then speaks about Hollywood movies and couples suddenly making out when they get home. However, when she sees Nasa and Tsukasa’s reaction to this, she concludes they act like this. The couple vehemently deny it.

Aya presses on, lamenting about couples doing things that she cannot. Then Aya admits that once when she say Tsukasa working the front desk, she wondered if Tsukasa was wearing Nasa’s favorite underwear. This causes Tsukasa to go off. Eventually, Aya wanders off.

Nasa mentions wanting to see Tsukasa in her underwear. She even offers to buy some cute ones for him. This makes Nasa want to go out shopping. Tsukasa asks what Nasa’s favorite color is. He states he likes red, but white is good too. And so it seems the couple will go to buy some white lingerie.

Thoughts/Review:

A normal-length chapter is what Tonikaku Cawaii Chapter 165 contained. However, it was filled with fluff, which is fine.

Naked Apron and Lingerie

Hata-sensei seemed to meander a bit in Tonikaku Cawaii Chapter 165. First he started with the whole naked apron fantasy. As such, it seemed like we might get to see Tsukasa get into one. But, that didn’t happen.

Aya derailed the naked apron conversation and shifted it to Nasa and Tsukasa acting like couples in American movies. Then she shifted it to lingerie and whether Tsukasa wore stuff Nasa liked. And then things ended up with Tsukasa stating she’d buy some cute lingerie for Nasa.

I didn’t feel like going back through the entire manga series, but for some reason, I did think that Nasa had seen Tsukasa in her underwear. Maybe I just imagined it. She did get into a bath nude with him once. Maybe I’m just too tired and shouldn’t be up. (But I have to be because of work.)

So in reality, just a lot of fluff here, which was fine for what it was.

Exciting Cameos!

Hata-sensei has a fondness for characters he’s created from other series. And that came to life with not one, but two cameo appearances in Tonikaku Cawaii Chapter 165. The first was Marie from Hayate the Combat Butler. Hata-sensei had her in Sanzenin Mansion kitchen, wearing the naked apron.

The second cameo came courtesy of These Two Will Be Married in 100 Days. (Check out my review of that manga series here.) Hajime and Himeka are the stand-in couple for Aya’s story about American’s making out in movies. As a fan of Hata-sensei’s works, I do appreciate the little cameos like this.

Final Thoughts and Conclusion

In the end, Tonikaku Cawaii Chapter 165 is a fluffy, meandering chapter. It is fine for what it is.
