[Cyan] Maiko-san Chi no Makanai-san - 05 [1080p][x264][AAC][12EA4ED0].mkv

Story summary from MAL: “Kiyo and Sumire came to Kyoto from Aomori Prefecture, dreaming of becoming maiko. But after an unexpected turn of events, Kiyo starts working as the live-in cook at the Maiko Manor. Their story unfolds in the Kagai, the geiko and maiko district in Kyoto, alongside their housemate maikos. Kiyo nourishes them daily with her home-cooked meals, and Sumire strives toward her promising future as the “once-in-a-century” maiko. Step into the glamorous Kagai, warm your heart with behind-the-scenes anecdotes and Kiyo’s kitchen episodes. Stay tuned for this touching tale of 2 childhood friends lifting each other up as they grow together.”

This episode has one of my favorite scenes from the manga - the snow shoveling scene in which we get a snapshot of the personalities of Kiyo, Sumire and Kenta, but also more hints towards that mysterious, unassuming "something" that makes the unobtrusive Kiyo what she is, and so "special". But the simulcast tl in this one got super duper lazy and just randomly decided to skip over all sorts of lines as if they didn't exist. I had to ask for a lot of help from other fansubbers for tl - shoutouts to everyone for the help and willingness to continue bringing this little gem to the Eng fansubbing scene!

Note that we try to create the releases optimized for mpv - other players may give odd playback results.

There was an oversight in the muxing and the ep will display in the title bar of the player without a number. If this is an issue for you here is a patch for it! Apologies! https://mega.nz/file/f51GjYLD#OXIw2wR199oB9XFll8OmVUKkwLs_tOJPbLOwTt2agVE
