Hey everybody! Guess what time it is? Time for earlier than usual Bellybuttons! I always preferred this at night due to more people being online, but tonight is going to be going to movie with family and no guarantee how much time I'll have at the end of the night before needing to sleep for an early work shift tomorrow.

So instead, we now bring you vol. 7 of Les Nombrils early in the day. And as a special Christmas present from Ouash, our translator of this volume, all the pages are the proper size now rather than the unusual image size we got from the scans during the year!

Because this book of course lacks a recap page like all the others, last issue we learned Albin was just a dick rather than a murderer while his best friend in fact was. He got stabbed, Vicky was nearly pushed off a bridge, lesbians happened. It was a very packed volume and I encourage you to go read it.

How has this man not gotten in shit with parents?

Now I just want Vicky and Jenny to be happy, and I'm getting pretty sick of Karine's shit.

Why won't the French let amputees eat chocolate, anon?
>>
>>78437295
The expression is the final line from this joke (which I have translated):

> Mommy, can I have some chocolate?
> There's some in the cupboard. Go on and get it.
> But Mommy, I can't, you know I don't have any arms...
> No arms, no chocolate!

It's meant to poke fun at the absurdity of arbitrary "because I said so"-type parental rules. The mom doesn't want the kid to eat chocolate, so instead of just saying so and explaining why, she sets him up to fail and tells him not having arms is the reason why he can't have chocolate.

Not really. Hugo's been a complete fucking doormat despite knowing Jenny's pretty vapid about looks. Why grow a spine the moment someone calls her out in public for the express purpose of mocking not only her but the entire concept of Hugo and Jenny in a relationship?

I can get where he's coming from but Christ on the cross he should have let this one slide.

>>78442122
Or better yet, let Hugo go to the gym and get absolutely chiseled. Sure, getting a six pack is difficult, but he can at least let the beer belly go.
>>
>>78442130
Okay, so three volumes left. I'm betting a resolution with Jenny and Hugo with Vicky and Jenny coming to terms in 8. Karine's story mostly being resolved and a fakeout with Megan and Vicky with their parent's going after each other in 9. Vicky gets a conclusion in 10.
>>
>>78442203
Not really a great course of action, as it only validates Jenny's vapidness, but pretty realistic for a 15 year old boy.
>>
Hugo's no saint. He has jackshit in common with Jenny. The ONLY reason he's into her is her looks. If she looked like Murphey's mess of a girlfriend he'd never put up with her stupidity.

Jenny loves Hugo for his mind.
Hugo "loves" Jenny for dat ass.
>>
>>78442225
I still stand on the opinion that he should lose the beer belly.
>>
>>78427438
>My life's about to become a living hell
come on, how much worse could it get?

>>78442467
nah, Hugo might find her truly endearing,
I mean she's actually very sweet,
>>78426493
but she isn't the sharpest tool in the shed and easily manipulated by others
leading to her being obsessed with looks;
I mean, just look how her mom reacted to Hugo
>>
>>78442863
She's as sweet as often as she's casually cruel. Hugo only puts up with it because he's a pathetic friendzoned beta fag and desperate to finger her.
>>
>>78442863
>Hugo falls for Megan and turns her straight
>This creates a rift between Jenny/Vicky and Karina since Megan is part of her band
>Meanwhile James and Jean-Franky are now gay for each other
There, now everything is worse
>>
>>78442939
Things took a change of direction when Hugo realized how much shit Jenny's in on a daily basis and is still cheerful.
>>
>>78442950
nah, I do't think so
if anything everyone at school will tease Vicky because she came out as gay
also, she's poor now
they can't even turn towards Karine now
>world tour also means she's probably on a longer leave
>>
>>78443019
I honestly can't wait to see what the new status quo of the characters looks like.
Specially Vicky, she just found out she has a half brother, is broke and Megan is probably still going to try and date her behind their parents backs. What, when you think about it, would ruin any chance of their parents ever being ok with the relationship, like what would you if your daughter started dating the daughter of the guy that basically got you broke?
>>
So, here we are. Jenny and Vicky are now living in the same house.

Predictions:

Vicky, being out of her mother and sister's influence, might actually become a half decent person. I want to think that because her father and Jenny's mother will have little to no time to actually fuck up her life, but Jenny and her little sister Jenna will be somewhat of a good influence on Vicky. I want to think that seeing Jenny and Jenna taking care of their baby brother will be a good thing for Vicky to see.

Jenny, I want to say will stop being negatively effected by Vicky. Because of Vicky's change above, I want to think that Jenny will actually be allowed to be a good person. I am hoping that her mother getting and staying sober (sadly, I doubt it will last long) will help Jenny get past her bullshit. I admit, Jenny is the one I hold the most hope for because, while not the smartest one, she is influenced by her surroundings and I think if things lighten up for her that she will be able to lighten up herself. I'm also going to say it, I hope Hugo gives her a second chance. I think that boat as sailed, but I think both of them would be great for each other. She needs someone to anchor to, and he needs someone to strive to make himself better.

Karine... not sure what to say here. I have no problem with her and the band. I don't like Albin, and I am hoping she refuses to get into any kind of relationship with him ever again. She has grown the most, but that was due to outside influences and I don't think that actually is anything deep down. I think the band might be the best thing for her to have a future she deserves instead of one she settles for.
>>
>>78443112

Honestly, I am ok with the idea of Megan and Vicky dating. I think Vicky realizes she needs both someone she is attracted to and someone that can support her. If the band takes off, that is Megan in a nutshell.
>>
>>78441452
It's surprisingly good. One of those comics you end up reading for the story instead of the sex

I do actually have it saved on my computer, only problem is that I'm at my parents for the holidays and so I don't actually HAVE my computer. In the New Year, I guess I'll story time it on /aco/ if nobody beats me to it
>>
>>78427438
The worst part of the Record drama is that they would probably be better off without Albin. He's unreliable as he will just shut down for months on end, and she's already got three talented musicians with her who all seem like alright people.
>>
>>78427329
> Vicky's sister is actually smiling in the last panel
> literally doesn't care about her mom being attacked, her dad being threatened, or her entire family being called niggers, just as long as her baby sister is having a bad time

There's a lot of awful people in this comic, but somehow she always finds a way to be the worst.
>>
>>78427187
I've got a bad feeling that this is Albin's meds doing the talking, and that Karine will be ready to forgive him just as he's recovered and gone back to his old ways with another girl.
>>
>>78443112
>>78443204
I think the drama between Megan and Vicky will ramp up as, if what her father and mother said is true, Megan's dad did some very illegal, or at least civilly liable, things to put Vicky's family in their current situation.
>>
>>78443523
>he will just shut down for months on end
He discovered that his best friend was a serial killer, and said best friend tried to frame the murders on him and stabbed him. He didn't shut down just because, he was hit hard by PTSD and depression.
>>
>>78429046
>How has this man not gotten in shit with parents?
Because he changes the girls for the better, gives them self-confidence etc and doesn't seem to prey on them sexually at all?
>>
>>78443790
and his on anti-depressants now;
he should be alright
>>
>>78443795
He seemed perfectly willing to sleep with Katrine last volume.
>>
>>78443890
Different anon but people don't just bounce back from deep, serious trauma like that with a couple of pills and ta-da. How old are you?
>>
>>78443795
Albin doesn't really seem that interested in any of the girls sexually,
he probably sees them more like art-projects or experiments
actually, he doesn't seem to be that bad, he might be manipulative but all of them have a better self-confidence at the end
why is Albin the evil guy again?
>>
>>78443905
Where? Are you talking about the doing housework together page? Because that wasn't sex, it was literally a joke about doing the dishes
>>
>>78443908
I know,
but anti-depressants break up the cycle of depression so the depressive person gets shit done
>>
>>78443914
People misinterpret things and believe that lying = worse than murder, or something like that. Albin being a bit dishonest and leaving some things out because he gets a kick from being a good influence in people's lives after a lifetime of being bullied and ostracized is hoorrrrrrible, but Vicky doing the same and much worse for James only because she wants to get a rich man to fleece and flaunt off and doesn't really give a shit about how James might feel about things is waved off because, uh, her parents are strict and superficial, or something.
>>
>>78443795
I doubt they approve of what's going on but they seem to be too intimidated by Karine's new attitude to act.
>>
>>78443970
I doubt the're intimidated by Karine (see >>78426870 and >>78426558)
>>
>>78443914
I'm pretty sure treating women like something to be improved then discarded is douchebag behavior. Plus he's dating a 15 year old.

>>78443952
There's a difference between Vicky pretending to share interests with James and trying to change James' personality and isolating him from his friends because she feels a need to improve him. Albin might have good intentions but he's a complete control freak. Doing the same thing to twelve women, essentially turning them into copies of each other in dress and appearance, is pathological behavior.
>>
I predict Karine will go on the world tour and then they will play wherever Dan is at the moment and more drama can happen.

Also, is Hugo the authors self-inset?
Why doesn't he at least try and improve his image since he knows the girl he likes cares so much about it, jeez.
>>
>>78444059
>Why doesn't he at least try and improve his image since he knows the girl he likes cares so much about it, jeez.

Because that'd just validate her shallowness and make him even more of a doormat than he is already.

Also, the author is woman.
>>
>>78444134
But it's so much better being overweight and 'sweet'?
Then I really hope the author understands how shallow Hugo really is.
>>
>>78444228
I'm sure she does, most of the characters are highly flawed and have various ranges of jackassery. It's pretty obvious that Hugo whiteknights Jenny hardcore.

Albin isolating girls from their friends is really, really messed up. Classic abuser behavior. And as he becomes more emboldened his manipulation is only going to get worse.
>>
>>78426948

Interesting indeed.
>>
>>78442122
Wait, what the fuck?
Are you taking Jenny's side?
>>
>>78446173
On one hand isolating people from their friends is textbook abuser behavior but on the other hand Vicky and Jenny ARE really terrible to Karine and cutting off toxic relationships is usually a good thing

The Albin/Karine situation is just set up where it seems so bad but Karine has improved herself because of it

Now that she's better off she should probably get rid of Albin too
>>
>>78442122

That's ridiculous. What kind of person thinks that what few people they hate should decide the way they live?

Furthermore, it really is hurtful, and perhaps he somehow had the hope that she would respond to love and accept him, and yet she sent him to fuck himself.

What kind of pathetic bastard would still be hung up on her?

I know 4chan would just say that Hugo is just a pathetic Beta that was hung up on looks, and perhaps he was at the start, but I can't see it now as anything other than a guy in love with a girl that she thought was better than what she turned out to be.
>>
>>78446173
Have you actually read his interactions? he's not an abuser, he's naive and a little bit arrogant.

He thinks he can read people like a book and thinks he knows what's best for everyone and practically does it as a hobby. He then realized he's been acting like a retard on some things.

Not to mention that if it weren't for recent (book fucking 7) events humbling both Jenny and Vicky up, karine had virtually 0 reasons to hang out with them.

>>78446789
Albin & Hugo are big misunderstandings if you ask me. Hugo should have let that slide because Jenny made it clear she fucked up, I mean, clear enough to have learned the lesson to some degree.

Albin was one person before Karine and another afterwards. His lifestyle in a way, fell to pieces and now he realized he didn't really know himself. getting stabbed and left for dead by his childhood friend probably has something to do with this.

Brilliant as always, how do they always knock it out of the park?
The visual and even translated dialogue is just so superb, by the way praise given to the translators as well. What's best is the way it juggles drama and comedy.

Take the scene with Vicky being confronted by Megan in the closet. It serves both as a joke and foreshadowing. Everything does in fact come crashing down on her. Well I guess technically that was inevitable all things considered but still I think it's quite clever.

Similarly I can see Hugo and Jenny's scene where they're literally walking in circles until Hugo requests for a change, a public one. Jenny declines since they'd be seen walking together. As soon as just that happens. Of course this scene as well was kind of exactly what it is at face value so it's debatable if it could be called foreshadowing but I feel it still achieves it since much how Vicky was literally in the closet Jenny literally has her affections now more out in the open, but still confined.
