Thanks!
Liking Vivid it would be nice if more Einhart/Vivio oriented works have been translated, NanoFate group is mostly concentrated on NanoFate theme.
There are actually really nice Einhart/Vivio doujins on their site in doujin section which just needs to be translated, maybe you guys could pick up some.

Thanks again! Looks like you are having fun translating these jolly doujin.
Though I feel a bit sorry for Erio if Fate, the closest thing he has for a mom, has such a low opinion of men.

That’s only “strange men”. I’m pretty sure Fate was shipping Erio and Caro long before they were even old enough to get there themselves. =P

I’m still surprised no one else finds it odd that the doujin is named “Secret ‘Tea’ Party” while the girls are actually drinking coffee.
Maybe “Coffee Party” just didn’t sound as good. Or maybe the word for “Tea Party” in Japan is broader than it translates to. I’ll have to take that up with our translator. =P

I did note it, but I thought it must be a direct translation from Japanese, Japan being such an ancient tea drinking country, it’s vocabulary possibly encouraging such a term, however inaccurate. Kind of like “a coffee break” is an ordinary term even if not all drink coffee.

I figured that would be the case.
And yeah “coffee break” is a great analogy on an old American ritual that used to be completely centered around coffee and where now coffee is optional.

Yeah, “Secret Tea Party” is actually in English on the cover, despite Fate going out of her way to drink coffee over tea due to the rest of her family’s preferences in the actual story.
I honestly think the subtitle was supposed to be a reference to Alice in Wonderland more than anything else.

What’s the gesture? I is curious o3o

Don’t know if it has a name. Just make a fist with your thumb sticking out from between your middle and index finger.

Apparently it’s called the “fig sign” (I had to look this up, as I wasn’t aware it had a name either). Most articles I can find on it mention its sexual connotation, and the fact that its considered offensive in some countries, Japan included. However, the basic meaning when shown in this context is an implication that the subjects being discussed have a sexual relationship.
Unless my memory is particularly failing me, anyone who watched Naruto back when it first aired will remember Konohamaru making this gesture when he first sees Naruto and Sakura together, with similar implications.
