Ayumu and Chiyo
Ayumu and Chiyo
One cannot go fast , the other won't grow
They're both high school students, and prone to accidents
Both cute too; Ayumu and Chiyo-o-o-o-o

The school year is now done, the students are now free
'neath the Okinawan sun
eat sata andagi.
Ayumu and Chiyo
Ayumu and Chiyo
In school relay races, they're both really slow
They'll prove that they're the best, and do not need big chests
Both cute too; Ayumu and Chiyo-o-o-o-o

Isn't it illegal for Chiyo work anywhere I mean she is 11 or something...

>>86327
exactly why it wasn't shown in the anime

>>exactly why it wasn't shown in the anime

whaaaaaaat, that's the stupidest thing i've ever heard. there's an entire series devoted to underage girls who act as assassins in the employ of the government or some junk, and azumanga can't show chiyo working at a fast food joint. shut uuuuuupppp dude

in the manga Chiyo uses her high school ID to get the job. The manager just assumes she is a very short teenager.

>>86602
No, the manager assumes her family must be really poor if they're sending an 11 year old to find work, so he takes pity on her and hires her anyway.

>>86603
no, the manager thinks she really needs the money because she's short- because of like malnutrition or something

>>86344
...it was though

>>86604
What he says is "She must really need the money." I always interpreted that as him thinking she's so poor she needs to work even though she's just a kid. (The lunchlady thought she had malnutrition though.)

Also, lol at "An gradeschooler."

>>86351
Remember, that Azumanga Daioh is meant to be realistic...ish.
FTAGHN!

no, the manager thinks she's a drug mule, and his past experiences with the columbian mob has taught him not to interfere with their business

>>86690
I still interpret it as the malnutrition thing- like he doesn't realize she's really 11 or 12 or whatever- he still thinks she's old enough to be a highschooler (panel two).
A very short highschooler that's needs money (panel three).

Thus my inclination on the malnutrition theory.

You just killed some catgirls

Lucky him

Osaka, are you pondering what I'm pondering?

Ee, I think so, Chiyo-chan, but can Tomo double on the ocarina?
