Disappointed by the ending. I had great hopes for this series once upon a time, but it stuck with subtext to the very end...

I dunno, holding hands at the place where Sei wanted to confess seems like actual text to me. Especially when Nan's feelings had become obvious by that point. I mean yeah, I wanted a kiss or an outright statement of some sort too, but this makes it pretty clear they're now a mutual couple and that's pretty consistent with the writing throughout.

Yeah, it just fitted well with the way the whole series went. That said I would have liked 15 or so more chapters.

lol By definition, the fact that it was never explicited stated or proven by a kiss or something makes it subtext. I agree with the first guy. Implications aren't enough because even friends can hold hands and sometimes obvious isn't actually obvious but misunderstanding. I don't like implied endings. I'd rather they seal the metaphorical envelope that is a yuri series with a kiss at the end, on the very last page, of every yuri series ever to make me feel better.

Oh wonderful! Another story about a sex obsessed lesbian without any actual romance. Just a girl who liked having sex with any girl she could find. Yay....*sarcastic tone*

It really bugs me that she's starting to ACTUALLY have sex with her "clients." About 90% of this series' appeal just disappeared along with her virginity.

Honestly, I read yuri because they tend to me more romantic than normal series and when it's a happy ending, its a REALLY happy ending. So, the fact that there are so many yuri series with false loves really bugs me.

Did it end? It feels like it ended. I DON'T WANT IT TO END THOUGH!

That was both confusing and stupidly depressing. Why do people enjoy sad endings? I will never understand and, frankly, I don't want to understand. I enjoy happiness, I am NOT the weird one yet somehow I seem to be the minority.

So Ume spends X amount of years in the sister-zone, all while sleeping, holding hands, and probably lots of other flirty things with Natsuki... that urge has to be building.

Or it could be that the romantic feelings became mutual at some time within the time skip. That's what I'm hoping for at least.

Finally, they grew up. They're finally at an age that I can ACTUALLY take seriously. All that angst from toddlers...WTF are we supposed to do with that?

If the index is anything to go by then they seem to have skipped a chapter. But there is already a chapter six translated. Did you guys translate the index then skip chapter six and just attach it to seven for convenience? Just wondering.

If that corpse's name was Mina, then, with this being a vampire story, the logical assumption would be that her full name was Mina Harker who was the main character of The original Dracula novel. Meaning that that girl is either Dracula him/herself or finished off what Dracula couldn't lol. Whoop! Reference!

I hated this. Whatever happened to romance? This is just a story about two girls who slept with each other in high school. Then when they met again at the reunion years later, one was getting married and they decided to screw each other anyway. So, the woman was still getting married and they decided to have sex just once anyway. Stupid. I hate this kinda shit. Because normally I would've been sad anyway since they wouldn't end up together but now, this woman is marrying some guy who she doesn't even love and I feel bad for HIM! Not her, since she's clearly just a slut who will sleep with anybody, as the flashback made sure to clarify. I'm tired of this. It's stories like this that solidify the stereotype that yuri is basically just lesbian porn.

I love EVERYTHING about this series. I'm glad to see a yuri series where the main characters aren't spending multiple chapters struggling over whether it's okay for two girls to date or struggling to confess in case the other person begins to hate them for it. A series where the happy ending already happened and it's merely a continuation of said happiness. I'm seriously tired of drama and bad endings.

Although, one thing I don't really care for is that the kisses are never shown on-screen or simply blocked out by one of their heads. It makes me feel like the kiss is faked or something like that. I'm WELL aware that I am greatly over-thinking this and that I am slightly insane, but that's just the impression I get with blocked kisses.

I hate Kanana. I really do. I find playboy/player characters absolutely obnoxious. Just makes me feel like any relationship they become a part of will end instantly because they will just revert back to their player ways. And since she's in a love traingle now, it makes it impossible for me to deal with. Hell, Kanana even agreed to date the girl.

...I will spend...the rest of my life...trying to decide whether or not that was a sweet (because they actually fell in love), a horrible (because EVERYTHING ABOUT IT), or a depressing (because Stockholm's) ending...I just...What even...Okay...you know what? Just okay.

That special chapter...that cat...it's as if she's a clone of both of my dogs...

The third chapter...just what? Ena...she's kind of an idiot, isn't she? She left a note that made it sound like she'd be back soon, like leaving breakfast in the frigde and everything. So, why would anybody be concerned about a note like that? Why would she freak out and come running after you? If I read a note like that from my girlfriend, who's living with me, I'd just be like, "Oh, she must've gone grocery shopping." So, what exactly was Mizuho supposed to do? Run out after her thinking something like, "Oh, God! She's grocery shopping!?!? I have to stop her before she buys those low calorie cookies with no flavor! Doesn't she know that Chips Ahoy is the best!?!?"

Or they work together and it's implied she ditched work all day...

Nonetheless, what Ena was expecting was a bit of an overreaction, isn't it? Isn't it more likely that her bus broke down or she got caught in traffic and her cellphone died? Or maybe she just ditched work like you said. Are you telling me that there has never been a day where you just didn't feel like going to school or work? Or maybe it was a weekend and Ena had errands to run that she didn't tell Mizuho about? Who would immediately jump to the conclusion that they ran away from their job, home, and life over a broken heart when they didn't even realize that there was a problem with the relationship to begin with? Not to mention that she's not a child. Ena is a grown woman who can take care of herself. If she had disappeared overnight as well, then maybe I would be concerned that Mizuho don't care about her. Either way, my overall point is that, Ena didn't really leave any evidence for Mizuho to be concerned too much. There are a near endless amount of more logical assumptions that one would jump to based on everything that was seen.

You guys, I am happy to inform you that I don't think this series is going towards the netorare ending (or at the very least, I have found evidence that says otherwise). The title of the series is "Dandelion Among Lilies" and the lilies in the title would be the lesbians since the Japanese word for lilies is yuri and well we all know what other things yuri refers to. The dandelion part implies somebody different, which would have to be the little sister who is straight. So the whole point of the series is about a straight girl living with a couple of lesbians and whatever other troubles they may have going on with their lives. If somebody has read the raws and knows otherwise, feel free to correct/warn me so I can drop this before the disappointment.

I don't know about you guys but when I realized this I was extremely relieved because I was planning on dropping this series into a fiery volcano at the first sign of netorare. I'm so tired of that bullshit genre. It's gross, stupid, and, frankly, I don't understand it. If you want multiple partners then just don't get a girlfriend. IT REALLY IS NOT THAT COMPLICATED! Seriously, if these characters realize that they are becoming attracted to other people, then I wish they would just wait the ten minutes to one whole day it would take to break up with the person they were currently dating. I think their private areas could survive one day by theirselves.

After the OVA, this is pretty much a canon relationship.

O MY GOD!!!!!! If I have to deal with ANOTHER series that has an open ending, yuri or not, I will take my frustration out on somebody. It's INFURIATING to be disappointed so often! I read romance series because I WANT THEM TO END UP TOGETHER. I don't like implications, they're not nearly enough.

And boom, just figured out that Manabu is probably an illegitimate son or something. Because frankly, he looks nothing like Mayami's father. So either an illegitimate son or a first husband who betrayed the mother or died or something. I don't think that this is the kind of series that would have something like infidelity as a part of it, so it's probably the dead/traitorous husband thing. Either way his mother is a horrible bitch, though.

I'm sorry, but even for kids what all of those people were doing was just too cruel. Maybe if all they were doing was ignoring her I could forgive them in the end, but they went too far. They were beating her, pushing her into puddles, mocking her LITERALLY TO HER FACE, and destroying her SUPER EXPENSIVE equipment. It's just wrong. Frankly, all of those people should just go die because the world would be a MUCH BETTER PLACE without people like them. Even the MC who became nice in the end AND tried to own up to his wrongs at the time doesn't deserve forgiveness since he was the worst while she was still protecting his feelings. In fact, the deaf girl deserves acceptance into sainthood for all they did while the rest of her classmates simply deserved a very early death!
Seriously, mangas like this do nothing but enrage me because they act like people can be forgiven for anything if they just say sorry, but, frankly, that shouldn't be the case. If that was the case, we wouldn't need the death penalty or prison. Actually, if those kids weren't minors they could have been facing jail-time (in America, at least) or, at the very least, fines so large that their lives would, deservingly, be ruined for a good amount of time.
