Chapter 49

"Senpai, are you asking Me out!?" (センパイのお誘いっスか!?) is the forty-ninth chapter of the Don't Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro manga series.

Summary
The President rather abruptly visited the art club room and, seeing Senpai seemingly having a problem getting in the mood to do a good painting, suggested he was slightly burned out due to the end of the Cultural Festival. She then gave him two tickets to the zoo so he could sketch while in the outdoors; saying she herself used to free herself to nature to refresh her body and soul, which prompted him to imagine her frolicking naked in the woods. The President also ordered him to try and invite the one she called the "cat girl"; since if an outsider like her kept barging into the club, she should at least draw something every now and then.

Just as the President exited the room, Nagatoro approached it and managed to eavesdrop; but she only heard the President's last words, which were that she ordered Senpai to "ejaculate" ("shasei"). Suspicious, she peered into the room and, seeing the zoo tickets in Senpai's hands, got excited and immediately searched on her phone for some recommended advice for a zoo date; then, feigning indifference, she entered the room and sat on the sofa.

Initially too nervous about the idea of ​​inviting the girl and going to the zoo with her, Senpai remained silent; then, remembering Nagatoro's words at the summer festival, he took courage and asked her if she likes animals, to which she happily answered that she loves them. Senpai then used his "putting that aside" gesture again and asked her if she likes to draw, to which Nagatoro replied she only ever did it in class. Senpai considered saying he could teach her; but he quickly dismissed that idea believing it would sound too pushy. However, right then Nagatoro conveniently admitted she was a terrible artist and would like for him to teach her. Finally, he managed with some difficulty to ask her if she wanted to go to the zoo with him the following Sunday, which, after her usual taunts, the girl accepted, smiling heartily.

On Sunday, a dressed up Nagatoro met with Senpai at the zoo, and told him how excited she was since she hadn't been to the zoo since primary school. Then, after the boy gave her a sketchbook, Nagatoro realized that she misunderstood the meaning of "shasei" and that the President had ordered him to actually "sketch" instead of "ejaculate", which got her a little upset (implying that she expected something sexy from the date), and as a result she kicked Senpai in the back of the leg.

Trivia

 * The word Nagatoro misunderstood was "shasei" which in Japanese could mean 写生 (sketch) or 射精 (ejaculation). The pun is very hard to render in any other language.
 * This chapter, alongside the following two, is the fifth time the story is not self-contained after Chapter 17-18, 22-23, 24-26 and 36-46.
 * It is also the fourth time Senpai and Nagatoro use their "putting that aside" joke and gesture, after Chapter 3, Side Story 1 and Chapter 42.
 * Although in Volume 7 it's collected as the forty-ninth chapter, it was actually released in Magazine Pocket as the fiftieth.
 * Nagatoro and Senpai have their first official "date", albeit they previously had an unofficial one in Chapter 26.
 * The flashback shown, when Senpai remembered Nagatoro's remark on inviting people if he wanted to be with them, was from Chapter 25.
 * The President's statement in this chapter, combined with her tendency to do self-portraits in the nude, seemingly suggest that she's an exhibitionist or at least a nudist.
