Synopsis[]
With animesque flowers about her head, Tomoko remarks that there are a lot of erotic anime manga cuddle pillows[1]. Hina, standing next to Yuri, asks her what she is saying. Tomoko replies that she has been thinking that they are used for erotic purposes. The side narration reads, "merchandise sale!!" In her imagination, Tomoko sleeps on a cuddle pillow which depicts an Anime Babe™ with tremendous . . . tracks of land. One reads "fresh (生)" and the other "milk (乳)." Tomoko's head rests upon the character's entrance to her Road to a Christening, with an arrow on her left leg pointing towards its location with the censored "rape me love (レ●プ ミー♡)," and "maid servant[2] here." On her belly is written "Slut (ヤリマン・yariman)" with "Stop (止)"[3] repeated underneath. Tomoko explains that they are called a pillow, but probably no one uses them as a pillow.

With a background that depicts Yuri, Hina, and Tomoko cuddle pillows, Tomoko asks, "For example, how would you use our cuddle pillows if they came out?" Hina thinks that they would not come out, but Tomoko continues as a chibi near a view of Voice Actress Hina peering at her phone with swirling eyes that as a voice actress, "Nemo" would be happy to report the availability of her cuddle pillow to her fans. Voice Actress Hina's phone reads the following texts:
- "Hina-chan's cuddle pillow I used right away and it got dirty (^_^;)"
- "True ejaculation."
- "Hina-chan's cuddle pillow, I don't cover it, I cover myself and am sleeping. Dreamed inside Hina's body."
- "Pure waist shaking."
Concerned Chibi Hina insists that she would never be happy. . . .
Tomoko turns to Yuri, revealing that they are in their classroom with Yoshinori in the background, and asks her how she would use her cuddle pillow. Yuri calmly responds that she would want her to bleach and wash it. Tomoko insists, "don't you want to use it.?" In Tomoko's imagination, Yuri mounts the Tomoko Cuddle Pillow[4], thrusting her hips, and Tomoko asks, "Well, about my cuddle pillow? Would you shake?"[5] Yuri denies she would. The shifts to Tomoko pushing into a Yuri Cuddle Pillow[6] as her chibi insists that she would. Chibi Yuri merely replies, "Sō."

Not Shown: "Subtext" . . . goodness no!
Emiri appears behind Yuri and thinks she would not do such a "boring" thing with a Kuroki Cuddle Pillow.[7] Emiri imagines hanging the Kuroki Cuddle Pillow™ from her ceiling at her height. She gives it a push, she stands in front of it as it swings towards her, but she sees Tomoko's eyes appear to stare into her, and she quickly dodges it as she shouts, "Disgusting?!" In reality, Emiri pants a bit. She continues to listen as Tomoko consults her phone and explains to Yuri that the pillows are designed for erotic purposes, and she has heard there are various types.
There is a view of two pillows. One has "legs," whilst the other has a "slit."[8] Tomoko's voice explains that there is the type with legs and the type, "with a hole in the middle into which something may be attached." Back to reality, Tomoko lasciviously insists that Hina's cuddle pillow would have the hole, and Yuri's is "able to grow a stick."[9]
"Worse," Hina replies.

Shown: Tomoko presents Emiri with a beer can . . . probably.
Emiri imagines herself confronted by Tomoko's Cuddle Pillow® on legs with a prominent pixelated protrusion pointing [Stop it. – Ed.] towards her. She screams, "Uwaa – disgusting?!!" while, in reality, thinks an expression.[10]
Back again to reality, Hina insists that not everyone will use cuddle pillows for sexual purposes, and she declares that if she had a Kuro Cuddle Pillow® she would use it normally. In response, Emiri imagines a Chibi Hina sleeping next to her Tomoko Cuddle Pillow. Yuri calmly adds that she would also would use it normally after she turned it inside out, and Emiri imagines a chibi Yuri holding a now bare cuddle pillow. Tomoko rhetorically questions that Yuri-chan would erase her existence.
The next panel reveals Asuka laying with her head on the Tomoko Cuddle Pillow's knees. She remarks that if it is a "Tomo-chan Cuddle Pillow," then it would be nice to use it as a lap pillow. The following panel depicts the athletically attired Masaki violently punching in the face of the pillow. She smiles as she suggests that "your cuddle pillow might be used for stress relief."
Blushing Kotomi happily starts to describe to Hikari how she would use a Tomoki Cuddle Pillow. In her imagination she places the pillow's cover over her head. She starts to say that she would cover, then stops. She corrects herself that she would "wrap it up and make it slippery," as she imagines pouring baby oil upon said clear-wrapped pillow. She continues that "during menstruation,"[11] she wonders if she will hug and sleep with it differently.
Hina smiles as she concludes to Tomoko that not everyone will use it for sexual purposes. Tomoko retorts that the last one will definitely be used in a bad way.
The side narration repeats the declaration for merchandise and directs the reader to see the next page for details.

References[]
- ↑ 抱き枕 (dakimakura)
- ↑ The phrase is 使女こちら (tsukaime kochira), with 使女 meaning "maid servant," or even "message girl," and こちら meaning "over here." WataMote Wiki is not sure where the Fanilators get "toilet" from that, other than to suggest the function of a "working girl."
- ↑ The Fanilators change the kanji into hash marks to suggest a record of the numbers who have "stopped" there!

- ↑ Tomoko uses the same verb 振る (furu) used by the imaginary otaku texting Hina about what he does with his hips.

- ↑ The Japanese still use coins. Thus, this is clearly designed to store change. Probably.
- ↑ 棒生やしたりできる (bō hayashi tari dekiru): it appears the ambiguity is intentional which leads to Emiri's imagination.
- ↑ Translation Note: Emiri actually says her catch phrase completely in katakana (キモイ) rather than her usual mixture with hiragana (キモい). WataMote Wiki will spare speculation on the meaning. However, her next expression could be her perseverating on キ which could be a reference to "feeling" with "good" or "disgusting" left unexpressed. Or she could be making the sound of keyboard clicking. . . .
