I miss Keiko and Ran so much. I wish we had either a proper development or at least more fluffy slice of life instead of this messy ending.

I curse you Timea817, for bringing this back up -_- ... this story hurts so good!

Lets do some stretches to alleviate the pain ;)

2018 AND I AM STILL ANGRY!!

Stretch could have filled in what Prism was left hang on. But the ending ended up screwing it up.

Just give up already Shou. Your beautiful art of girls but awfully meh of men, means you will either have to go back to hentai, or staying on mainstream with yuri. No choice.

Reeeeeeeee this manga brings back very bitter memories

I got diabetes

I've got mixed feelings on the ending, but overall this was an enjoyable read.

Actually, Show promised a slice of life manga with roommates stretching. He delivered a slice of life manga with roommates stretching (one that was going pretty well until he fucked up the pace at the end). No yuri was promised, Stretch wasn't ever tagged as yuri (or even subtext) here. I don't understand why people can't let go about that...

I guess it wouldn't bug me as much if not for Ran's dream and the valentine's chocolates making it pretty clear she had feelings. If it had stayed just subtext it would be one thing, but it was crossing over into outright text just enough to sting

I've recently had some issues with repetitive strain injury. So I decided to print some of those stretch-routines from the manga.

Now every time I see those stretch instructions I just remember the pain from the ending and forget all about any other issue I might have. Works perfectly; I feel much healthier already.

Waiting for the next year to come along so I can bitch about how I'm still angry in 2019 haha.
Tbh all in all this series had some memorable and honestly funny moments.
Still doesn't make up for everything else though.
Basically I agree with what Nezchan said smh.

I wish each chapter was marked by what exercises demonstrated because my back hurts too much to just look through all of them DX

Only “Happy End” surpasses the betrayal of readers’s expectations. May the Yuri Gods strike down the author! (Just kidding, I just won’t read any of author’s other stuff)

Hey, this should round out this thread section. Let’s put a final nail in this coffin and stop making comments on this dead series.

I rather liked the ending. Usually these long-running repetitive series finish up with some generic light-hearted bullshit—nothing changes, nothing is resolved. The author actually had the balls to write a proper conclusion.

Also, the ending is consistent with what little was presented throughout the story. They move in together during periods of instability in their lives. Their life together is a transient thing, their relationship a result of circumstance more than anything else. Their feelings are never presented as mutual love or anything like that.

This isn't a brilliant work of art. It's a manga presenting illustrated instructions on various stretches, with some underdeveloped story wrapped around it to contextualize the central gimmick. For the genre of underdeveloped stories wrapped around some gimmick, it was at least interesting.

Thread was dead for 2 years, so if anything you just brought it back to live. If you just wanted to rant about ending, go ahead, but then don't write pretentious stuff like that.

EDIT/ My bad I looked at account's date instead of post's. Still my point stands.

Actually, if you do all the stretches consecutively, an invisible yuri ending magically appears.

Or so I hear—I pulled a hamstring in one of the middle chapters and never did finish. lol

I'm mostly sad the author never mad any yuri after Prism

New Shou's manga is def yuri: https://sundaygx.com/sakuhin/sakkaInfo/vampires.html

Who gonna pick this up cuz im ready.

"The little love story of a girl and a girl". And a vampire story at that.

Can't lie, it looks exciting.

Edit: skimmed the first chapter and whoa... that computer art.

And the relationship sure moved fast. From zero to waking up in the same bed.

Remembering this still kinda pisses me off.

What unholy creature featured this abomination?!

I bet it was Nezchan. It is well known that she enjoys tormenting us all. ~nod nod~ ;)
