The subtext shields are still holding, though—Konatsu’s feelings have finally gotten through to Koyuki, but neither of them can quite say what those feelings mean yet.

If the shark or the turtle (or either of the hard-shipping dads) spill the beans, though, it’s a yuri apocalypse.

The thing is... in the novel, the Salamander and the Frog don't date.

The Salamander imprisoned the Frog because it was feeling lonely, being unable to leave its cave.

In the end, the Frog can't leave, even if it wanted to, it accepted its fate. Somehow, they became friends.

Super Friends.

I honestly haven't read the story, but the brief synopsis you have provided sounds like an excellent metaphor for unrequited love.

Is not lizard, they're still amphibians you guys don't get it!

I get the joke, it was a good one, this is a really funny inside joke

And “holding hands = lewdness” jokes NEVER get old.

Especially intertwining fingers.

Or Stockholm Syndrome.

I mean, the metaphor about the Salamander and the Frog is that Koyuki was feeling lonely and Konatsu accepted to be her friend and to stay close to her to alleviate that loneliness. Like, a BFF.

No yuri. Still subtext.

that sounds like... hotel yurifornia? you can subtext any time you want but you can never...

holy shit, Nettaigyo’s latest chapter did not fucking disappoint

10/10

throws confetti

Ok this cannot be subtext anymore im sorry.

I actually looked up "Salamander" by Asuji Ibuse and it's a really depressing story. It's a parabola about depression and loneliness actually.

The frog is trapped by the Salamander and is slowly dying.

It's about their acceptance of their fate: being trapped and dying.

... I don't think this manga is going to follow that route, after all... She wouldn't mind being a frog.

"I don't mind you trapping and slowly starving me" is a thing friends say

it's skinship, guys

Yeah, they're superfriends.

One of the things that's really charmed me about this series is how present the parents are. Like Koyuki's parents already seem like they have a way better idea of what's going on with their daughter's [subtext] than Koyuki herself does. It's not an idea that yuri normally ever tackles, that parents would actually support the relationship. But like dad's been pretty much shipping them from the start, and mom kinda seems like she's realized something this chapter, too.

Like it's just taking an already cute, fluffy story and making it that much sweeter.

Nettaigyo with the unexpected hard swerve into S&M

What does she even do for that 2 hours? Hmmmm

You know what she did ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I honestly can't wait for the next chapter, like are they gonna delve into Koyuki's realization of Konatsu's feelings?? or is the mangaka gonna give us more angst??
