I didn't like how the sex scenes took up so many pages, but I did love that ending.

I actually enjoyed it, although I wish there were about twice the pages devoted to the wedding. The father made a certain amount of sense if you look at it as him wanting her to settle down with someone, and by this point not picky about who she did it with.

The story was a bit short on what there was to love about Kiara, given what a frankly childish personality she had.

There were barely any sex scenes...
Actually way too little of it.

I'm not a fan of this mangaka's art in the slightest. But damn it all, if I don't love his yuri series for the stories alone.

That 4th chapter was so rushed its not even funny, i give up, i didn't like this manga before im not going to like it now >.>

At least it's better than Citrus, which, while I would usually prefer a story takes it slow, definitely fits in the "just end this cliche garbage already" pile.

Better than Citrus +1. That twin-drill third-wheel is so much of a pain in my ass that I dropped out with her as the only reason. And this Ch4 is what it has to be after Ch3.


Aaaannnnd laughed my ass off at the scanlator credit page.

I think the story is beautiful. Everything is just beautiful. Eventhough it might just a dream in real life..

Lesbihonest, the plot was okay; not over the top cliché yuri setting. Yeah, the dad and daughter context (between Kiara and his dad) was a bit "eh" but it doesn't take away much from the experience.

The characters were developed quite nicely, imo. We even got a little bit of back story laid out, like how Nozomi was comfortable with her life but she desired something more than her current lifestyle and thus resulted into her following Kiara, and how Kiara was "introduced" to liking girls by Annie.

The h scenes were really steamy too! And top it off with crisp art. It is far from the being the best yuri story, but I can't say it wasn't enjoyable to some degree. Quite a read!

I'm rejecting the Marriage tag because spoilers. It's better used for oneshots/doujinshi, not concluding chapters of a series.

I waited until the end to read this, which was undoubtedly for the best; I saved myself a lot of drawn-out frustration. Sad to say that on the whole, I couldn't really enjoy it much. Kiara was way, way too unlikeable. For 3/4ths of the manga she's desperate to get rid of Nozomi, and in the end it's still not much of change... Even though she says she loves Nozomi, I never really felt it. Mira's artwork was as sexy and beautiful as always, and more yuri with dark-skinned characters (and marriage) is especially welcome, but Kiara's tsuntsun was several magnitudes too much for me.

Aye, I agree with you on Kiara's attitude. The character reminded me a of a little boy that picks on the girl he really likes because he either a) is too slow to realize he likes the girl or b) is emotionally incapable of processing the fact that he likes the girl. however, Kiara's attitude improved/implied that she really liked/loved Nozomi in ch. 4.

I got hooked to it till the 3rd chapter. Though honestly, I was a bit disappointed for the last one.

A bit rushed, I should say. But nonetheless, overall, it's a good series to read.

I think Mira went for the 'realistic' angle on Kiara and Nozomi relationship. They're twenty something girls, is perfectly normal for people their age to get married in a rush and at least we know they're still in love and happy some years down the line.

Aw, c'mon. Even a Drama/Comedy/Tragedy might make spoilers, are you rejecting them too?

Drama/Comedy/Tragedy is genre, Marriage is not.

Mira made some new art featuring the sidecouple in the story:

Eh no, not Annie. They're the two girls who had a threesome with Annie.

I can't believe how many negative reviews this has gotten. I strongly disagree with those who say that Mira should 'stick with porn', and for me this is just further proof of that. I love this story.

I've suggested that the final chapter should have the marriage tag a couple of times, but they were both rejected. I can't understand why though. They get married for pete's sake. You see them standing outside of a church wearing wedding dresses talking about how they just got married. What else do you need to qualify for that tag?

That honestly makes no sense. The whole point to tags, especially once the series has scrolled from the first page of Recent Changes, is to find stuff you're looking for. So if you're looking for manga with marriages in them, you're not going to find this one which reduces the usefulness, doesn't it?

I agree, what's the point of tags if they're going to skip over content which actually contain the tag?

You've made the case to keep an untruthful label in http://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/your_fault so that people be warned that there might be content they dislike.

Why is this not the case for things they might like?

Furthermore, this particular "marriage" tag is extremely important. For many obvious reasons, there isn't that much marriage in Yuri and the whole thing is important to many LGBT members in which this subject is extremely sore and ongoing battle. Think of all of those who couldn't, can't or wont be able to achieve this happiness of getting married to the person you love.

Considering what kind of content this site has the most and who reads it... I would even go so far as to say that you have a duty to put that tag on.

For the record, I was answering a question; not endorsing the response.

I'm in no position to disagree with either of you, and I can certainly sympathize with the points made. However, when the first request was made, at least two uploaders and one staff member agreed that spoilers took priority over relevance.

Not much else for me to say.
