Yes, the penultimate sentence in the unofficial translation I was reading. But they kept it as netorare, so searching for cuck was fruitless.
I ended up reading most of 4.5. The unfamiliar names turned out to actually be connected to the main story, it's just that when you're skimming you don't realize the unknown girl is actually the little sister of the running mate of the chick who lost the debate. Especially if you didn't recognize the running mate's name either.

The fan translation I'm reading doesn't translate words presumed to be familiar to the otaku, like NTR:

"Interesting. So this is what it feels like to be cuckolded."

"I see, so this is what is called netorare (NTR), huh."

I'm wondering about Yuki:
She's a horny otaku, loves to read 'wincest' and S&M manga, gets off on hitting on her own brother and watching him squirm.
But what would happen if he whipped off her towel, grabbed her hand, and headed for the bedroom? Would she be a for-real brotherfucker, or it it truly just a game she plays? I think it's just a game, but I also think she really hates to lose, so I'm not sure what she'd do if you called her bluff.

Even the bit we did see was entertaining, decent cosplay and people watching. Ton of food trucks too. Was really disappointed in the "beer garden", only Asahi.
Will be going to more in the future. Next time we'll board the animals and stay in one of the connected hotels to the convention, has a lazy river on the roof, so that'll be nice.

Got to meet the owner from PandoraX, nice guy.

He actually doesn't have one of Shalltear that I've seen, might be a good recommendation. Megumin I've got on my other board

View Quote

I know you've read further ahead than I have, but...

The last big embarrassment was hypnosis.

The next big embarrassment has nothing to do with Yuki.
The culprits are

Click To View Spoiler

Grandpa Kuze and mama Kujou,

who start the marriage negotiations during parent-teacher conferences, in front of their homeroom teacher.

"By the way, is Kuze-kun good at social dancing?"
Akemi asked a completely unexpected question and left Masachika stunned for a few moments. He blinked and asked the question again.

"Social dance...?"

"Yes."

Masachika was even more confused when Akemi confirmed it in a very natural way.

(Social dancing... Uh, what does that mean? Is there some kind of implication? What's the point of that question? I have absolutely no idea!)
Do I need to answer honestly with "I think it's pretty...?". No, I don't know if I can give such a perfunctory answer. Before the worried Masachika could answer, Alisa called out to Akemi in annoyance.

"Mom, what the heck is that question? Look, Kuze-kun looks troubled."

"Ehh?"

"Why do you want to talk about social dancing?"

"Eh~? Because his shoulders are slightly hunched?"

Akemi placed her hand on his cheek while glancing diagonally upwards, and said something he did not understand. It turned out to be nothing. It was just a natural comment. After all, she was Maria's mother.

Masachika felt like an idiot for being cautious, but then Tomohisa quickly approached Alisa and took her hand in a very natural gesture.

"Young lady, do you want to be my granddaughter?"

"E-Ehh?"

"Oii, Jii-chan!"
Masachika skipped all politeness and shouted at his grandfather, who said something outrageous as if he was proposing.

"How about it? Are you willing to become Masachika's wife--"

"Seriously, please shut your mouth!!!"

He covered his grandfather's mouth with his hand from behind, forcing Tomohisa to keep quiet, and pulled him away from Alisa with all his strength.

"In that case, since my turn has come, I'd like to excuse myself first!"

"Ah, yes."

"Alright. See you again."

After ending the conversation forcefully, Masachika said goodbye to Alisa and Akemi. Masachika finally let go of Tomohisa's hand as they both walked away.

"So? What do you think, Masachika? Do you have any intentions of marrying her?"

"I told you to be quiet."

"So? Does Alya-chan want to be Kuze-kun's wife?"

"Mom, please be quiet."

At the same time Masachika was looking at his grandfather, he overheard a conversation between a mother and her daughter from a short distance away, and Masachika silently showed his sympathy to Alisa, saying, "We're both having a hard time, huh...".

Then, as he regained his composure and turned his gaze to the classroom... He saw his homeroom teacher smiling stiffly, and Masachika looked up resignedly, "Of course the commotion will be heard...".

The next Yuki incident is more competitive than sexy.

BTW, don't hate Yumi (Yuki's mother) without knowing her circumstances.
Not that it excuses her. She could have easily been a wonderful human being like her own mother before her.
She explained herself in Vol 9.
No spoilers here, just background of why the Suou family is as it is, and why Kuze resents Suou Yumi.

But in the end, the real agent of chaos is Nonoa Miyamae, the blond girl who surrendered the debate.

Dixie Gun Works used to sell a replica of the Japanese Matchlocks, but they have apparently been discontinued.

https://www.dixiegunworks.com/index/page/product/product_id/9502/category/315/category_chain/312,313,315/product_name/MM0005A+Japanese+Tanegashima+Matchlock

Looks like the artwork is a 'carbine version' of that, with AR furniture and a few other things added. The muzzle device would seem likely to serve a dual function - deflect the muzzle blast forward and act as a funnel for loading.

I don't recall seeing what the Japanese version of a cartridge box from the muzzleloading era looks like, but I imagine that making a MOLLE compatible version would be an interesting project to complement the 'Tactical Tanegashima Teppo'.

Now a real killer, when he picked up the ZF1, would have immediately asked about the little red button on the bottom of the gun.

The series is getting some serious love in terms of animation, too.

Just started watching Elusive Samurai.

Really appreciating these studios that make use of the Rec 2020 color gamut (like Demon Slayer). Looks spectacular on the LG OLED.

It’s kinda like Ossian newbie. Massively overpowered guy who doesn’t initially fully understand just how OP he is.

Entertaining enough, though.

Those are the two I'm waiting for a new episode every week and have read ahead on.

The other two I usually watch on release day are Dungeon People and Dahlia in Bloom.

Dungeon People is pretty funny. Extremely silly too, but the way that it turns expectations upside down and skewers cliches is delicious.

I've just started watching Dahlia in Bloom - maybe two or three episodes - and so far it has been unexpectedly interesting, with some very imaginative world building and character development - so I'm enjoying that one as well.
