Feels like watered-down Yuricam.

...how? They are nothing alike besides the MC wanting to marry into money.

Girl who thinks she's straight goes gay-for-pay because she's greedy, slowly realizes she's not straight. Everyone is "wacky", i.e. totally nuts with super-exaggerated personalities. Parodying typical shoujo stuff. It has the same feel, right down to the fact that despite the entire cast being gay, no one will probably ever outright say so. Hence why this is subtext. Only reason Yuricam is yuri instead of subtext is because most of the other characters are clearly aware of their own sexuality, but since the main character is completely in denial about it and has 99% of the screentime, no one who matters will ever clearly say "I love you", even though there are many characters that clearly would. Clearly.

Eh. On the fence about this one. I'll give it another chapter to see how it pans out, but if all four of the main characters have "bad" personalities, then it's going to be hard for me to like.

It looks like it is a much better take on the sort of self-aware yuri trope parodies than Yuri-Danshi.

Yuri-Danshi didn't parody yuri, though. It parodied (male) yuri fans, like its name suggests.

This was hilarious, can't wait to see more :>
Is it over already, or is there a chance for things to get gay, Roppo? Also, didn't expect to see you TL something with the subtext tag... Not complaining tho

It's currently at 9 chapters (including this month's YH issue) and ongoing. There is always a chance... ;D
And there's not that many good super gay manga out there, so if there's a good one with subtext, I guess it'll have to do. x)
(An upcoming project of ours is both gay and hilarious, though. Sakura Nadeshiko for anyone interested in looking it up.)

Heh. Looked it up and I don't think it'll be well received here. Unless there's something I'm missing.

Really? My impression is more like "as long as it has yuri/lots of girls/at least two girls I can ship everything is 10/10". But maybe I'm being too cynical.

Well...
A story about a yuri couple where one of them grows a dick/becomes a boy won't be received well on a yuri forum. I don't know why anyone would think otherwise.

Let's not call it yuri, and have a long argument about why the subtext tag is pointless instead!

Also, if that's what the synopsis you read said, the person who wrote it was on some major shrooms.

@Pyoro
Right...

If it's this then that is what it's about. Nadeshiko grows a penis.

I skimmed through the first chapter.
And looked up on the last one published.
But maybe I missed something? Well, it looked obvious to me.

It is published though. I can read the Japanese chapters that are online.

Don't know what you're talking about. Just looked up two more chapters and it's worse than I thought. Offensive even.
But that's okay. The comments will be fun when you publish it. I'll be waiting.

We seem to be straying off topic for this series. Could we perhaps make an effort to get back on course, and wait until the new series gets here for this stuff?

I'm reminded of reality television, in which a group of people with unappealing personalities are brought together under a silly context and you just watch layers upon layers of petty conflict bubble up between them.

Except this show happens to be permeated with lesbian subtext so I'm in.
