The last hanchan begins. The winner of the Interhigh will be decided here. However, before that, there is a new volume release in April. As always, to give Ritz time to do all the usual pre-release work, no new chapters until then. Patience...

Shinohayu 124: Green Harvest
The chapter's title "Green Harvest" is used when speaking of companies recruiting university students long before graduation or, in the original sense, buying a rice harvest long before it's ready to be reaped.

Toki 82: Amplitude
Happy New Year everyone! First post of the year!
Two notes on this chapter:
The cover has Nanami sitting alone in a fancy cafe, as if she was waiting for someone. Mekimeki asked on X who could she be waiting for, then added the most voted character (Shimeki Natsu) to the picture. This alternate cover is included in the file, at the end of the chapter.
Also, a reminder that the Sonezaki Rine that appears in the rankings in page 13 is Senriyama Middle's club president who has appeared in a few chapters. The two names in grey are unknown, probably just filler names.

Shinohayu 123: Roosting
Short, easy chapters like this take very little time to translate. That's nice but I think I'd prefer longer, more eventful chapters even if they took a bit more effort on my part.
Next will be Toki but that won't be until... um, next year?

Saki 283: Break
This chapter... is in pretty rough shape sadly. Several pages with missing ink and tones and all that. We hadn't had a chapter like this in a while now. Looks like Ritz desperately needed a "break", like the title says.

Saki Biyori - Omake Chapters
Every volume of Saki Biyori contains one extra chapter at the end with new stories that did not appear in the magazine issues. This is a collection of all of them, 32 pages in total.
I was a bit reluctant to do this at first but after I started reading, I was smiling all the way through. Some of the stories at least are pretty funny. On top of that, it's been fun doing some Biyori again after all this time and maybe you will enjoy reading it as well.
