The MahiMahi duo is really starting to grow on me

READ IT IN THEIR VOICES AND TELL ME IT'S NOT THEM.

I DARE YOU.

Really, this gotta be the most original pair I've seen in a while! not just from this manga in particular but yuri in general.
Also the odd small mangaka (not the grumpy one) with the heartbroken girl with a ribbon in her head makes a very fresh combination too, I hope to see more of them.

The moment the camerawoman came up I went "Kera? Fruits? Larme??" It looks like Kera. (If anyone is interested in Japanese street fashions, Kera and Fruits have street snaps, and Gothic Lolita Bible and Larme exists for specific styles)

The mahimahi duo is the cutest.

He actually drew them a little different. Mahiro looks slightly taller and thinner than Mahiru, while Mahiru's eyes are slanted downwards. /chpt87-page55

Those two are always the funniest. XD

Some stuff popped up in my Twitter feed with dates but since I don't read Japanese, I don't know if Google Translate is doing a good job.

Volume 13 may be the last one depending on sales? Am I understanding that correctly?

Yes. The editor has told Kishi to take into account the possibility having to end at volume 13. It's not decided yet and sales of 12 (out soon) will influence it.

Well, it's better than keep making couples and slowing down their development trying to go on with a classroom full of lesbians cough*kissandwhitelily*cough... I'm just happy that most of them are very established already and I hope we can see them all happy at the end.

Welp, guess my next order from Amazon.co.jp is August 18, 2017.

I really hope it doesn't end at vol. 13, since as of ch 158 (released a few days ago), many of the storylines/couples are still quite far from a conclusion, so they would either have to be insanely rushed, or left unfinished. :/

Whether or not it does get axed depends mostly on the sales of the physical copies in the following months.
The sales are currently not that good and bookstores don't want to give shelf space to books that don't sell well.
Bookstores don't get many copies of Virgins Empire volumes in the first place, so Kishi is asking for people request for them if they are already sold out and you want to buy them.
He says that it'd be difficult to bring each character's storyline to a satisfying closure if the series is ended abruptly, but the axing is not set in stone yet and he believes in the possibility of continuing the series.
The next chapter will be released on Tuesday night next week as usual and vol 12 will be out on the 18th of this month.

At least Ai and Chei got to the end game.

Oh, I can feel the tempo changing, I'm actually all for this here. More yuri is more fun.

"Going to the Lily Side" is my new fave sentence and I will most definitely find a way to work it into my writing.

That was nice but honestly, I don't remember that girl with the camera... Or the other one, now I'm confused

Yeah, Airi and Michuru did vanish for a good while. Probably because the mangaka realised how boring they were compared to the other pairs.

I read that last line in Schwarzenegger's voice.

And that's how Michiru realized she was into NTR!

Netorare and cheating tag?

Yeah, Ayano was undressing another girl behind your back, Miyoshi!!

I got the impression Shueisha was making it difficult to translate/license Virgin's Empire in English (which is bizarre, as it's licensed in German).

Ahhhhh ahhh Ayano

I ship her and Miyoshi so hard. Or at least I just want her to confess to Miyoshi already. This chapter was so good

Why did Ayano lie about the undressing some other girl though........
When's gonna be the time i see AyanoxMiyoshi like LOVEY-DOVEY AS IN LOVERS FOR REALZ...?!? >~<
