What's the prequel to this story?

imo in order to put a "sequel" tag there should be required link to a prequel, which would show up next to the tags, this would be way more convinient than looking for it by yourself by browsing other works from the author

I agree with this, it's ridiculous to put a Sequel tag on a story then not actually say what it's a sequel to. At the very least put a link in the first comment in the discussion when it's posted.

Looks like we've got a mystery on our hands, gang.

My guess it's a sequel to Your Straightforward Expression since they're already dating in that one. But as I said, you really shouldn't have to guess.

I thought all her eliumi stuff was part of a series. Like, that's why this one is number 8.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

e: It's more than a little self-centered considering that yuri manga is such a niche in what can already be a pretty unforgiving line of work, but I'd be really happy if the author went on to do published work one day.

SO CUTEEEE

Haven't even started reading, checking the author to see what the prequel was, author has like 20 pieces that are all Eri x Umi lmao

IIRC Passion actually comes after Your Straightforward Expression, which would potentially make this the sequel to that one?

There really doesn't seem to be much continuity between her stories to be honest, other than The Secret Shokolad taking place the morning after Deep Blue Sea Like Me, so calling anything but that a sequel seems to be over-selling it.

Girls in Boxes once wrote whole chronology BUT I DON'T REMEMBER in which post xD dammit xD

Edit: FOUND IT

Deep Blue Sea Like Me → The Secret Shokolad (vol. 1) → The Secret Shokolad (vol. 2) → Fortunate Re”lation [ re-release of Fortunate Relation; not yet scanlated] → Your Straightforward Expression → passion → Time for sweet living [her latest work!]

Edit 2: there is new work "Tsumuide Yuku Hibi"

I've removed the sequel tag after some discussion with drpepperfan. It was probably a mistake to add it there and I apologise for the confusion.

As I've explained previously, tMnR's UmiEli works can be considered a "series" as they all have a loose connection. However, they were not released in chronological order, and they do not assume you have read the previous works (except for the ones explicitly titled "Part 1" "Part 2"). They are not a strict "series" in the traditional sense and there's not currently any larger banner I can describe them under.

If you're interested, the chronological order is as follows:
Deep Blue Sea Like Me → The Secret Shokolad (vol. 1) → The Secret Shokolad (vol. 2) → Fortunate Re”lation [ re-release of Fortunate Relation; not yet scanlated] → Your Straightforward Expression → passion → Time for sweet living / Another work that we should be releasing soonish (not 100% sure on the chonological order of these two)

The release order is more or less the same order that each doujin has been scanlated.

I agree with this - though I see you removed sequel in this case.

Sometimes it can be hard to figure out what a story is a sequel to so it should be always linked to, assuming it is on the reader.

The best way would be to make the sequel tags actually link to the sequel, not to a list of all sequels (can't see why anyone would ever need to get a list of all sequels anyways but I'd have that accessible only through the search by tag facility and the link in the overall tag list.

Maybe you can't make it work like that at this point but It would be nice to get a link somewhere going forward.

As to the doujin it was amazing - thanks :)

I always thought I liked Eli x Nozomi more but now I'm not sure - they sure are sweet together.

Unlike nico & maki I can enjoy Eli and Umi with several different pairings - Eli can go well with Umi or Nozomi
- and I think Umi works well with Eli and Kotori - though for some reason I don't think she works with Honoko imo.
