Combini de Kimi to no 5-fun Kan: Chapter 71 Recap
Previously in the manga, Shibasaki tells his sister that he will be working on the Christmas holiday, and his sister taunts him for it. The only reason Shibasaki wants to go to work on a holiday is because of his promise to meet OL-San on Christmas, and he even has a present prepared.
On Christmas, Shibasaki is helping decorate the store when OL-san comes in as promised. Shibasaki is wearing reindeer headgear as part of the festive spirit. OL-san loves the atmosphere and compliments how everyone is fired up for the festival. Shibasaki finally gives OL-san a present, which is a chicken fillet snack.
OL-san believes that the gift is for her cat even though Shibasaki is unaware of the cat’s existence. Shibasaki asks OL-san for a name since she didn’t have any present for Shibasaki. OL-san mistakes Shibasaki’s question and reveals her cat’s name, Takuan instead. Shibasaki’s curiosity about the name “Taku” finally ends with this revelation.
OL-san and Shibasaki shared a few more words, and Shibasaki complimented Takuan’s name. OL-san is later shown feeding her cat the fillet and tells Takuan that even though she was convinced that Shibasaki was a cat person, he just wants to care about what other people hold dear. OL-san wonders if Shibasaki was asking about her name instead.
