Shinohayu 65: Plover on the beach

Long time no chapter! After skipping one issue, Shinohayu returns at last.

A plover walking on a beach leaves footprints that remain long after the bird is gone but these too will fade eventually. There is a Japanese classical poem (waka) that compares a plover's footprints with memories that will eventually fade if not written down. In Shinohayu, the "plover" is long gone but its "footprints" still remain as memories. However, if the plover never comes back, will its footprints also disappear?

No Saki chapter this month

So it seems Ritz caught the flu right after submitting the previous chapter. Her manager cancelled the chapter's release immediately but Ritz thought maybe she could still make it and started working on it as soon as she could. In the end, it couldn't be though. That's why the announcement was delayed until now. Next chapter should be on March 1st.

Ritz also posted a table with birthdays, heights and blood types for minor Shinohayu characters. It's just names, probably not worth translating but if someone is really interested, let me know.
EDIT: someone added the table info to the Saki wiki so it's all good.

Saki 200: Open

Round 200!! This chapter is called kaihou which means "open" or "opening" and there's a good reason for that, but it feels we just closed a chapter that was opened almost 10 years ago.
