Arai was fashionably late this week but I'm glad she came through, good chapter.

Yes agree it was good. Looking forward to seeing how this arc finally wraps up. Maybe the build up was a bit too protracted but I think the resolution will be worth it.

I just hope we get more on Rinko and Shu and they don't get discarded like Mao & Chizuru seem to have been (would really like to get a reunion with them at some point).

[Edit: Noticed on re-reading that Rinko & Shu are in the bar

Yes! Serande us with cool tunes. This is also a trial run for when they're married and their daughter or son runs away. Felt like a real family moment there; I'm sure he felt very comfortable and loved. Been really enjoying all this.

The chapter was great. One of the reason is that Araij didn't try to cram everything in one chapter, like usual, with a begining and an end. It looks like next chapter will continue right after page 4.

I'm a bit afraid of the resolution of this arc thought. Because I could see Mitsuki picking up the guitar, start playing and then... Well that's it. Trauma resolved, no discussion. Next arc. I hope I'm wrong, but I don't know why, I have this feeling.

I like the angry little hand coming out of Aya's speech bubble, ready to slap Aki lol

Finally! You got this, Mitsuki!

Will Mitsuki finally realize that it doesn't matter to Aya how good or bad she is at music, as long as it's Mitsuki's song and she's singing for Aya? Tune in next time, at the Green Yuri Channel!

Good point. It seems like an unavoidable discussion but there's always a chance it just gets skirted around.

YES GIRL play that guitar, get your spark back

YESSSSSSSS WINNERS LOVE WINNINGGGGG

I wish we had some extra longer chapters for times like this, right now the current length still makes the release pacing a bit grueling with us having to wait for another chapter for see her play. Though it's not the end of the world, and it will be better for anyone re-reading or starting the series later at least.

Also yeah I hope we get more to the resolution than that, her playing again should be the start of the resolution and communication afterwards would be nice to see.

Oh, so that's how Mitsuki will finally play the guitar that's lying around at her workplace.

Well guessed!

So Aki was the spark.
