This looks like a promising series. And I'm always a fan of height differences.

Looks promising. I like the idea that Hina is actually a kid and Hana is the older one.

Morinaga's best work is when she sticks to the basics. Girl meets girl. They fall in love. Girl Friends and Kisses, Sighs and Cherry Blossom Pink are, to me, her best work and they're the most grounded of her stories. Hopefully this will have a similarly organic relationship.

They're both decent, but c'mon, Mare was her masterpiece.

I love morinaga milk, every series is the same two character designs. It really makes it feel like none of her series ever dies, though I hope she gets to the relationship part of this series a little faster than in, say, girlfriends.

Milk really does like those short black haired and long blond haired girls doesn't she. Looks like good stuff though!

"No part-time work?!" Do Japanese schools really hammer on all of these extraneous details about how a student is supposed to comport oneself outside of school? I mean seriously.

As always with Morinaga Milk, this looks very cute. I have one problem with the translation, though; saying "gyaru" instead of "gal". I've always felt that sort of transliteration to make an English word sound Japanese is insulting to the Japanese. As if you're laughing at the Japanese for saying "gyaru" instead of "gal" or 'doriftuto" instead of "drift" or "dorama" instead of "drama." The Japanese are saying English words. It's just the translator insisting on using the Japanese transliteration of the word instead of just using the English word the Japanese are already saying.

That one was School Police. The entire series was published in English by Seven Seas under the name Gakuen Polizi. Volume 1 is here and volume 2, conclusion, is here. I've been assuming that Yuri Project hasn't done a release for so long because of that.

Here's an explanation. Normally, if the Japanese uses an English word, I'll use that word in the translation if at all possible. In this case though, it's not possible since gal means two completely different things to English speakers and Japanese speakers. Please see the translators note on page 2 for an explanation. For a more thorough explanation, search gyaru on the web.

I think what motojin means is that Seven Seas officially used "Gal" for "Gyaru" in their manga, and others official licensors have as well. I don't really care either way, myself, but when I read "gal" in manga it's usually referring to the gyaru-type girl.

Proof that for new credits pages I start with old. It's fixed; don't forget to hit refresh to see the fix if you want. A while back when I did a triple chapter release, I accidentally gave all 3 chapters the same name in the credits pages.

I love Morinaga Milk as a yuri artist. The drawings are always cute, the stories usually have a happy ending, and the plots flow nicely without too much jumping around. I will definitely be following this series to see how it unfolds, senpai I understand your pain of being older but shorter than your junior...the struggle is real. Hoping this is longer than the Princess Mirror storyline. Also Hina-chan is gorgeous! <3
