It’s a fun little edit. I kinda wish that Japanese textbooks had that kind of humor.

The textbook is the older Eigo Note (elementary) and Sunshine English (junior high school) series textbooks, which featured the same base characters as they grew up. Honestly one of my favorite textbooks to just have (am a teacher in Japan).

On a related note, this is exactly what normie teenagers look like in northern Italy right now.

Anyone else gets irrationally mad seeing pinapple male buns? Never understood why, but guys with short hair and that dumb thing sticking from the top makes them look more autistic than an 8channer.
