The translation was a bit stubborn on this one. I got different names with each translation and they all were quite different in wording.

友達の誕生日前になると送られてくるぼっちのメッセ

来週ントカちゃんの 誕生日だよー!

It's either something like:

A message from Bokucho sent before a friend's birthday

It's Ntoca's birthday next week!

Or possibly something like:

Messages from a friend start coming in as their birthday approaches.

Next week is Kontaka-chan's birthday!

Not sure why this one is giving me so much trouble...

    I know the られ form but られてくる form not so much.

    来週ントカちゃんの 誕生日だよー!

    • 来週, raishuu, next week
    • ントカちゃん, sotoka-chan, sotoka is another character in the show
    • の, no
    • 誕生日, tanjoubi, birthday
    • だよー!, dayoo!

    "Next week is Sotoka-chan's birthday you know!"

    I don't know why the translation struggled with the names so much especially in the last one. The first one, deeple came out with "A message by a lonely person" which makes sense because she named after being a loner.
