Chapter 17
I still feel unease about going with the full snake route, but apparently it would of been generic and boring, if she went for the "Daily Life With A Monster Girl" version. There no politic discussion in this chapter, all we had was a nice cute chapter about the friends and their younger siblings. Very cute, and I'm glad the chi-san weren't afraid of the snake girl and DAMN the mermaid really had big boobs! I wonder what do you guys think of the mermaid tail, only going all the way and stopping at the pelvis, instead of giving us a full Ariel look?

New chapter. This time, it's a family trip to the hometown of Hime's family... and we find out that Hime really IS part of an old family. Literally. Like the area where the town was built on was actually theirs at one point in time, and even then they apparently still own a huge chunk of the surrounding countryside. And they have this huge old-style mansion too. Makes sense, I think, since there's more than enough hints that Hime's family is a samurai family.
The weird thing is though is the revelation that Shino's mom... is actually the younger sister of Hime's dad. Which makes her talk earlier about how it's not fair for Hime's family to be an "elite" family seem weird, as she's technically the third daughter of an old line.

Hime dad is the older brother of Shino mom. The oldest lives with grandfather. I wonder something was mess up in translation, because the way Shino mom act around the family, it confirms she too familar to be a in-law. and at the ending panel, I love how Shino is a still cute kid, but she acts like a older sister and a role model to that other centuar child.

Just picked this up, I'm guessing the helper in ch 25 is a demon that got released in ch 8 (mirror/seal being broken) and the extra child playing in ch 12
Anyone notice Sue (the youngest child) seem to be a mixed breed? She has the ears and tail of a tail-person but the wings of an angel but not the halo (the ears are different from the triplets too) |

Kind of surprised that we got this chapter really.
So the focus is back on Manami's family, specifically here youngest sister Sue. Looks like the little one has a new hobby, though I'm not really sure that keeping her off a tight leash was a good idea on the Class Rep's part. And we finally get a clue as to the identity of Sue's mysterious playmate the other chapter. It's one of those situations where all those after-chapter notes come in handy, right? (If you don't remember, the notes on God and the Devil) Note the comment "Well, it was my home to begin with."

Well that goes against everything a high school manga stands for. We have a bath scene and instead of one of the teenagers the "old woman" is nude. Not that mom hasn't kept her figure after having two children and being married for ~18 or so years. Must be a centaur thing. Never seen a picture of a droopy one.

Three new chapters! Well, technically a short lead-in to a chapter, a chapter that shows world-building, and finally something that leads back to Hime and her family (specifically a peeping tom).
The lead-in obviously highlights the still-latent racial tensions in Hime's world, when an older angel woman slaps her fanny and calls her an "animal". Two businessmen, an angel and a centaur, comment on how Japan seems to be so backward because of this.... Which segues into the next chapter, the historical part, where it's shown just how centaur equality came about in Europe. Surprise, it's because of Napoleon freeing the French centaur slaves, giving them equality in exchange for becoming his cavalry forces. Things kind of snowballed from there really. The last chapter, is of course, focused squarely on Hime's family. If there's anything Hime got from her dad, it's apparently being a bookworm. Oh yes, the pervert... We get a change out of (care of Hime and her dad again), but you have to wonder about a pervert that can outrun two centaurs. And it turns out it's some sort of alien.... Uhm, yeah.

I can't remember which chapter but wasn't there one which said that centars were treated as knights in Japan while the rest of the world used them as beast. That being the case wouldn't the old folk have more respect for them instead of treating them like animals? Or did I read something wrong?
