I don't think this series is good, but like everyone else I'm still on board.

And mr bones' wild ride has only just began, and none of us will be able to get off and stop reading it.

Huh, I just stepped down and was fine. You sure the car is actually moving?

I don't get everyone's confusion.

Tsubasa meets Misaki and they start doing the nasty regularly. Rumors start at school about Tsubasa being a prostitute. When she comes to school with a black eye Misaki can do nothing but wonder if the rumors are true so she asks Tsubasa. Tsubasa tells Misaki the rumors are true and leaves, she then goes to Jun's house. This is where a flashback happens.

Tsubasa lives in an abusive household. One day she meets Jun. Jun provides an avenue for Tsubasa to defy her father, they pretend to be prostitutes to rob men and then start having sex with each other. Turns out Jun is a real prostitute and seems to be grooming Tsubasa to pimp her out. Jun gets two customers to have their way with Tsubasa but changes her mind when she sees how much Tsubasa doesn't want it.

That was really depressing. It could have been far worse of course but that doesn't make it less sad than it was (not that it's bad or anything because of that, I'm just saying). To me, it still only seems like we are in the introduction part of the story but seeing as how there is only one volume and the series is complete, I really won't get my hopes up.

This series feels really rushed to me. Even after observing part of the main character's backstory, she still feels like she lacks character development. This is just my observation though and I'm sure other people will disagree. I do like this story though despite my complaints. Maybe it's the artwork, maybe it's a guilty pleasure read, I'm not completely sure (maybe I'll re-read it in the future and see it in a better or worse light). Whatever the case, I find myself wanting to read the next chapter.

We've started having a flashback that's already lasted for almost 2 chapters and will probably go on for at least 1 more, lasting more than the actual timeline events we got to see. Since we barely got to see the relationship between Tsubasa and Misaki develop, with only 3 scenes of them together spanning over 2 chapters (two of them being somewhat romantic, and the third being the revelation), starting a long flashback right in the middle of chapter 3 makes the entire thing feel disjointed. The author should have delayed the flashback by showing more "dates" between Tsubasa and Misaki before the whole prostitute thing shows up, but likely they're limited in pages or chapters available to wrap up the story. You could argue that if story is the focus and pages are limited, then there's way more pages of porn than needed to showcase awakening to sexuality eating up the plot, but whatever.
Another possibility, should the author really wanted to highlight the importance of Tsubasa's past, is to not make any flashbacks and instead start the manga straight from Tsubaki meeing Jun in chapter one. Problem with this however is that "first girl wins" is like an unspoken rule of the yuri genre, and some readers would have had a hard time acepting Misaki over Jun, even considering what happens in the last scene of this chapter.

EDIT: One other possibility would be to take the Lost approach, and divide the flashback into several parts shown across the manga as needed. Much harder to pull off, though.

Well, this explains why she's so sexually aggressive.

I think I'd prefer if Linda went back to drawing fluffycute one-shots instead. Oh well, at least the art is nice. Thanks for your efforts as usual, ZdY.

Oh...

Oh! Lord, that Ch. 3 flashback passed by without me really noticing anything! NOW, after a re-read of all four chapters, things suddenly start making sense!

I suspect that's the moment Jun figured out that Tsubasa was a genuine lesbian.

Oh, but didn't she used to invite boys over?
I don't think that not wanting to be raped by two random guys is that great of an indicator of anyone's sexuality

Meh whatever. Nothing is really surprising at this point.

I mean when they revealed she is a prostitute, people should've know this series is really gonna be fucked up.

So a fair warning before. This might include het and a lot of NTR in future chapters

As long as it's not too disturbing and creepy, i might not mind it.

Rather than inviting boys over, I find more likely that he was just one boy she liked, she might have taken him home, and her father basically treated her like a slut who keep bringing various boys home, we already know her father is a piece of shit, so it won't be a surprise if he overreact because she brought home her boyfriend or a male friend, I'm betting she's bisexual, and if Jun just had asked she might have accepted it, so, uh, yay that she was almost raped...?

I wish there was more of a focus on the characters' inner frailty and mutual dependence and less on the external trappings of dysfunction. I guess you can only expect so much from pornography.

Tis ony the truth. When you see fluffy art and cute characters involved in prostitution, you know shit gonna down the hill.

Het has a really strong possibilty and NTR is already there.
