Neeko's mom comes across as genuinely wanting to push her daughter forward without really understanding how she feels. like, she does what she can for Neeko to "progress" on the life track she doesn't question because that's what she and all her peers believe you're just supposed to do, it's normal and there's no reason to think about it.

Well, yeah. Moms trying to get their twenty-something daughters married asap (setting up omiai and such) is like the oldest trope in the book. Truth in fiction, too.

It's a common source of angst in yuri stories, where the lesbian daughter isn't interested in men but 1) she hasn't come out to her parents yet, or 2) she has come out to them -- but they just got angry and redoubled their efforts to get her a proper husband. I don't think it's Neeko's case, though, as she has shown some interest in males (and little attraction to females).

Honestly, it's kind of unrealistic that her mother has waited until now to introduce her to some marriage candidates. In a less comedic setting, the pressure on Neeko to marry someone and give grandchildren to her mother would have been there, I suspect, since long ago.

But its the dad who sat this one up

lol false alarm everyone.

But it's the dad who set this one up.

Yeah... and now that we know who "Sousuke" is, it makes sense.

The author really trolled us. I was absolutely sure some guy was going to come for Neeko... someone who was manly, assertive, good-looking, with a great job, and, generally speaking, the perfect hubby candidate. Then Neeko would have to fight an uphill battle to reject him!

Actually, I'm glad it didn't turn out like that. Whew!

got baited by the cover for some reason, I dunno why

Well, you gotta hand it to Neeko, even in the midst of her despair, she still shows off a great camel toe.

Also, now it's Neeko and Neko, this could become a buddy comedy or a crime show, or both.

I think we can already add Yuri crush to this

No way this girl's heterosexual

No way this girl's heterosexual

Yup. She even has a mild version of Kase-san gaze... Poor waiter.

very angst, guy have no eye

Just in case I'll leave this here

Koi wa Ameagari no You ni

This is the scariest manga I have ever read.

Just in case I'll leave this here
Koi wa Ameagari no You ni

I tried to watch this but I ended up feeling just too creeped out by the age difference and implied power imbalance in the relationship. I really like the art though, so there's that.

Also, it was exactly what I thought of too, when I read this chapter. lol

At this rate Neeko's going to get another sister.

Neeko chapter, yay! No Neeko in it, boo.

I'm like you.
Both Subtext and Yuri Crush would be appropiate, I'd say.

The artstyle is so lovely! I can't get enough of this series (legit, I need more than they can supply me!) I'm sure anyone can relate to Neeko in most aspects (I feel your pain Neeko, in the same position as her)
There's no tag but her sister is making the subtext happen in this series (her friend is almost at yandere stalker level), didn't expect any Yuri from this at all but.... maybe subtext

I feel so stupid for getting excited for Neeko's friend wanting her over to repay her... Was hoping for Yuri. Sigh... It was still nice though in it's own way.

Also that second depressing as fuck chapter... I feel less alone, but it doesn't make me feel any better.

The karma for using your sister :x!! I hope this doesn't give hers weird ideas like body paint art/ gaming in twitch

First payment!!!! GOOD JOB!

That's a dangerous rode that can only lead to perdition

Oh no. Don't go down that path, Neeko...

she has the body for it :0
