The perfect reply doesn't exist.

Edit: Also, wtf does "not lizard" mean?

I stand corrected.

I'm still a little bit annoyed that Kasumi NEVER shows any affection for Sakurako even after all this time.. But hey at least the two juniors finally became a couple. To anyone who's read ahead, do we see more of them together or is that their last appearance?

With the bonus chapter now I'm really sure that the author just messing with us for not letting the main couple (mainly kasumi) openly gay

And I still have to wonder what people like you have been reading to say stuff like this. Has everyone forgotten this chapter: https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/a_room_for_two_ch29 ? That's not the only example either, although it's probably the most concentrated one. Kasumi displays her affection in a very low-key laid back kind of way, because she's a low-key laid back kind of girl. But she still DOES display it.

I think the problem people have really stems from years and years of "will they/won't they" writing in yuri. There's been a conditioning to require an exchange of the exact words "I love you" for anything to be certain, and even then people have been burned by series that build up a relationship which gets thrown away in the last few chapters, often ending with the girls getting boyfriends because they've "grown up". (thanks, class S)

So, while I agree that Kasumi certainly loves Sakurako as much as Sakurako loves her, I can understand why people are uncomfortable or skeptical about it.

No to sound judgemental but it really threw me off in the latest chapter where Moka was found to be very uninhibited. Not that its a problem to love people even in a sexual manner but the whole manga up till now has more or less avoided touching the topic (even with our apex lesbian Sakurako).

So now we have an official couple as per the bonus... Come on Kasumi, even your Kouhai is moving faster than you. Don't take Sakurako for granted.

It feels a bit like relationships have been turned up to 11 now that we've gotten to a college setting.

Considering Seri's motivation here was Kasumi and Sakurako's relationship I think it would be hard for this be considered moving faster.

I think in many cases it's just a misunderstanding as to what some people mean when they say "showing affection." I believe it's pretty evident to the vast majority of readers that Kasumi loves Sakurako, but what they are actually referring to is the apparent lack of reciprocated romantic attraction and physical affection. Kasumi is so chill it's hard to tell if she even experiences sexual attraction let alone acts upon it. But you certainly don't need sexual attraction in order to love someone. There are plenty of happy couples out there, some even married, where one or more of the partners is ACE.

Thank you. It annoys me too to see people not get Kasumi love for Sakurako. Just because Kasumi isn't very physically affectionate with Sakurako doesn't mean she doesn't reciprocate her feelings. This is the same girl who finds most daily life routines a pain in the ass so of course she is going to find physical intimacy a chore. She also has very casually kissed Sakurako a couple of times so in general kissing or other deeply intimate acts don't matter a lot to her. She just isn't a typically lovey-dovey person. She's catlike in nature in where she's very choosy in how she displays affection. Hell, the manga compares Kasumi directly to a cat.

We also have to take into consideration Sakurako perviness at times can be a turn-off for Kasumi. It's cute and funny from our perspective, but I can see some of the things Sakurako does be too much and annoying for Kasumi. Sakurako has a tendency to go from 0-100 gayness real quick too so it's intentionally setup to be a boke/tsukomi comedy routine with them sometimes.

There are other moments where Kasumi is openly gay for Sakurako too like when she casually joked about marrying Sakurako in front of the mom or when she forcibly stopped a drunk Sakurako from kissing Seri which means a lot coming from someone as typically calm and sedate as Kasumi.

Yeah for sure. I only meant to illustrate a reason someone might not be happy with the level of affection Kasumi displays. I'm sorry I was unclear. (also Kasumi is my favorite character by a mile and tbh if she were confirmed as ace I might die of happiness)

In what world is 40 chapters lazy?
K-on did three years in 4 volumes with a total of 56 chapters, then it moved on to college.
A Room For Two has done three years in 4 volumes with a total of 40 chapters + 5 bonus chapters.
These two series are very similar, and it would be difficult to find someone who thinks K-on was "lazy" because there weren't 100+ chapters.

mmm well the k-on manga is indeed 4 volumes long but to be honest the k-on manga is not that good i think the thing that makes k.on great is all stuff that yamada naoko and the kyoani staff put on the show wich is a lot a there´s a pretty good video that talks about it by digibro

If we could decide if something is lazy or poorly made by looking at its size, I would actually insist that Yuru Yuri's author isn't trying very hard if that many chapters have passed without any significant changes. But that's not how things work. The quantity of a work isn't proportional to its quality. It can only have a subjective impact on someone's opinion.

yeah i wasn´t triying to say that the manga is bad because of it i just find werid the way the manga handles the high school topic a lot of manga and anime depicts high school as this amazing, fun , random and exicitng stage of your life when you can do and be whatever you want and the end of it as this sad melancholic time where the chatarcters stop being kids and pass to the next part of his life that is young adulhood (wich i know is a lie because even though i almost finish my carrer im still inmature and a child at heart)
but a room for two is so casual about it the characters just pass through high school like it was nothing and when they finish the school doesn´t seem like they really care about it

again im not saying that the manga is bad is just so different from other mangas that´s why i find it kind of weird surely im just looking at it the wrong way this is clearly not traditional school manga

sometimes i froget that if you critize or point out something about a manga is clearly because you hate it to death there´s no way that you can enjoy something if you don´t think of it as a 10/10

It's amazing how as seen in chapter 43 even Sakurako and Kasumi's classmates know they are dating, it's just them who are unaware
