I think there was room for improvement.

The teacher is underused, the sempai is a just a rough outline and the 3-way relationship is rushed forward.

It's like the author had planned a lot of things, but it didn't come out as well as they thought and they had to cut the experiment short.

FUCK YES
Poly ending. Did absolutely not expect that. Not because they were no hints. But because the mangaka actually pulled it off!
So fucking rare! The absolute and total madwoman! Kudos!

Why do you think well written stories always top the charts and are phenomena?

Gentle reminder that Citrus is the best-selling yuri manga of all time last I heard and, on a more general note, I really hope you aren't trying to make an argument that the most popular manga/anime/movie/novel/*anything* in general are so because they are paragons of thoughtful writing. That is almost never the case and one of the most fallacious arguments you could ever make.

Gentle reminder that - and this is something I give profound thanks for nearly everyday now - the Japanese authors of the vast majority of these works do not read this site and are blissfully unaware of Western yuri fans' self-important views on how they should do their job better. You are not giving feedback to the author here, so stop pretending that. You are only wallowing publicly in your own sense of superiority, writing post after essay-like post to no real effect except propping up how much better your tastes in Japanese schoolgirl lesbian fantasy stories are compared to others'. Please gain even a tiny bit of self-awareness about how far you are going (and habitually go) to belabor this point.

I love this entire comment.

Just saying it doesn't make it true, thankfully. Pretty childish I must say.

And insisting on continuing this will most likely just incite the mods, so I will just facepalm and leave it at that.

I love this entire comment.

In a surrealist ironic sense I hope. Unless you are a fan of swiss cheese of course, because of the amount of holes it has.

Well if it's poly anyway why couldn't they take in that lonesome cute&cruel senpai as well?)
Or is there my tasty extra for senpai x teacher ? :3 it'd be nice~

Woah that felt rushed, was it suddenly stopped or something?

Not "of all time", but it did get into a well-known American paper's list of best-sellers. If I'm not mistaken, that was The NY Times.

If it's not selling that great, well, it's gonna be axed.

What a train wreck, both the manga and the comment section. At least the art was good. The artist should collaborate with an author who can actually write something coherent.

The author can write, it just was cancelled and they had to rush an ending, they were even begging on twitter for people to buy it, but nobody did.

Wow the comments here remind me of a child throwing a temper tantrum because their parent bought them the wrong toy for their b-day. The story was axed so we can't get a good ending and the author decided this was the best way to end it with a chapter or two remaining, although, the threesome route was probably not the best way to end this, I agree.

I do agree that this last chapter was just hacked together but I still really liked the last few pages. This poly end made me like this series a bit more and it what I was hoping for anyways.

Bad story couldn't sell so author decided to go out with a bang by having an even worse ending.

When uploaders, or moderators, give you a gentle reminder that you're doing something wrong and recommend that, in the future, you show at least a tiny bit of self-awareness and adjust your attitude, the correct answer is to thank them and mend your ways. Definitely not to hit them in the face with a brick of text made of pure undiluted condescension and sarcasm.
Keep in mind that the next reminder might not be as gentle.
