Not so much a love triangle as a love line segment.

I think that would be Nanashi no asterism, which was also licensed, which is really puzzling

Oh right, that one. I sometimes call it "the one with a resolution slightly better than Happy End".

I lol'd.

This little story pretty much made me realize I would be a terrible teacher in Japan. If I were the advisor, I would destroy that band. One of the substitutes is super skilled but pushed out because they don't like her? One of the other substitutes sucks and rather than practicing MORE they are making her run errands? What if your clarinet player gets a cold and you NEED her to not suck? I would be hated because I would violate every bit of Japanese power dynamics. Like in that anime we all refuse to mention.

Also, I'm a flute player and have had that "too nervous to play" thing happen to me. Obviously I'm a guy so the circumstances are different but hell does it suck. It was the worst.

This time it is really a love square. I loved all characters so a big polyamory maybe?

It's kind of wild that I'm this happy about a trans/nonbinary character being included in a story that isn't all about them being trans or nonbinary? They're not played for laughs, nobody makes a big show of finding them creepy, they get a solid romantic angle of their own that's treated as sincerely bittersweet and not tragic or laughable, and even the fact that it's the terrified-of-guys Hotchi that has her own quiet unrequited crush on them is subtly affirming. It's just! Great! I love it!

Loved this and it made me remember about this authors other work and now I'm going to read Lonely Wolf, Lonely Sheep for the hundredth time.

Love... pentagon? It's more like a conga line I guess.

Going to the music store as a date... that's genious! I just realised if anybody ever did that to me, I 'd probably fall in love right away. And if they bought me a nice guitar as a present I'd marry them right away. xP just kidding... maybe.

That aside, this one was cute. I love this cute art style.

Wow I really wanted Robert to end up with Inui, but in the end nothing even happened. smh

Already really liked the story and the dynamics of all of the characters, and then they throw in a genderqueer character in here in the midst of all that??

(Just throwing this block in here because, great comment.)

Is Robert a trap? Like biologically male. If so, shouldn't this get a het tag?

A trans person isn't a crossdresser.

A trans woman or a nonbinary person with a girl isn't het.

The manga doesn't say one way or the other what Robert's crotch looks like. Just that people call them Robert.

Don't be stupid.

There was no solid hookups, and we lost a good sensei to the het side. It was a dark day for yuri.

But... of which nation, if they are only half-Japanese?
