If you are new here, welcome to this little site, and I hope you enjoy reading this amazing series that is Petit Bourgeois, or also known as Shoushimin. Note that if you want to read Volumes 1 or 2, please avoid the PDF/EPUB. I have been making edits directly to the pages to keep them more in line with the later volumes, as well as deal with grammatical errors, but the PDF/EPUB will only be updated after this round of edits is complete.
After the edits, I will be not be continuing the translation of Volume 5, but I will be skipping ahead to Volume 6. The former is just a collection of side stories, while the latter follows the main story of the two protagonists, and I would really like to know what happens next.
That’s it for this update. To end off, I highly encourage everyone here to buy the original Japanese books, if you have the means to do so. The author, Honobu Yonezawa, has said that he might write some more stories of Kobato and Osanai in college, and supporting the official release will encourage him to do so. Anyway, see you in Volume 6!
Thank you SO much!
I just discovered this series through the currently airing anime adaptation. Being instantly captivated, I had terrible cravings for the source material and was overjoyed to find your amazing translation.
After hungrily gulping down all the parts translated so far in a couple of sittings, I can’t wait to take my time and treat myself with your translation of vol 6. Godspeed and thank you again!
As you said in your recent post, you will no longer translate volume 5 because it is a compilation of short stories and will skip to volume 6 because this continues the main story. What I want to know is if you will go back and translate the rest of volume 5 after you finish volume 6.
I personally would love it if you did that. Also, thank you for your hard work translating this series.

Yes, I will go back to volume 5 after volume 6. It has also come to my attention that there are three other stories that have not been collected into a volume, so I will translate those too.
Thank you so much for the translations. I still have the other volumes to go through but at this point im going to re-read from the beginning. Cheers
