its kinda sad that the focus of the moment is this pseudo love triangle where nothing happens… i feel bad for the otaku girl, she’s clearly just ‘there’

Okay, but can we talk about the fact that the date on the ema says 29-10-2019? That's ten days from now! Future manga! Σ(T□T)

Still waiting for my flying cars, full-body cyborgs and industrial massdriver facilities on the Moon to arrive by the present year as according to Cyberpunk 2020. :|

Already pointed it out in a previous comment. Maybe a translator joke.

Imagine a yuri manga set somewhere in Neu Katz's AFOW. I'd pay to read that crossover.

Love rivals always seem to be a sign that an author doesn't know how to keep their work going in any other way.

I liked this manga better when it was about a popular gyaru and an unpopular nobody falling in love.

At this point, I don't know anymore.
Let this flow whatever path it is.

I'm still shocked that they decided to license this

Boggles my mind

There's just one thing that this story is missing: Kurokawa, at this point of things, should find herself falling hard for Fujishiro, and struggling in confusion with feelings of love and passion that she doesn't understand. You know, just like Fujishiro has been feeling and acting towards Kurokawa? That. Afaict, Kurokawa is still stuck in "I admire Fujishiro, she's the perfect princess!" and hasn't shown any romantic feelings (or feeling of jealousy) towards the other girl. This cluelessness is blocking any progress in their relationship....

^A lot of that would be down to Kurokawa still being fundamentally caught in her deep-rooted self-esteem issues and putting Fujishiro on a pedestal as some kind of distant, ethereal quasi-divinity. She doesn't really have a very normal or healthy perspective of their relationship yet, nevermind now being ready to view them both as "mere mortals" who could conceivably have something like that between them.

Ajiichi has a thing for having a short haired hot girl in love with one of the MCs of their stories. Also, i don't get the Izumi hate, like yeah, she's just your average run of the mill closeted lesbian who is in love with her friend but its too afraid to act upon those feelings. Nothing out of the ordinary for this author. I actually like how she seems to be the gyaru version of Kurokawa, both of them seem to like Fujishiro a lot, but still feel unworthy of her love.

I thought this trip would help Kurokawa step away from her "admiration" phase of Fujishiro and maybe even a "Shit, i'm in love with her" moment, but we didn't get any of that. We actually didn't get anything. These last 3 or 4 chapters feel like unnecesary filler since we learned nothing new besides confirming Izumi is actually in love with Fujishiro which anyone who's reading this story already knew when they hugged in that cafe. I really hope the story develops more in the next few chapters cuz it feels like Ajiichi is following Citrus formula of just running around circles until a sudden dramatic development occurs.

Haven't you seen the news? That stuff has been postponed to at least 2077.

Filler. :/

Uh yeah loving this new update
Izumi is a little creepy isn't she? But at least she's trying to get along with Kanade
I can't tell whether she'll continue try to get in the way of Fujishiro and Kurokawa but that wish she made didn't sound very good
Izumi/Kanade was born as well lol. She is very good looking though so I totally get Kanade

Kanade definitely figured out that Izumi is into Fujishiro. What will happen now that she knows?

I'm still shocked that they decided to license this

...Really? Seemed like an inevitable license to me.

This manga has really become stagnant. Its just really boring

Ah, I see. Izumi is going to Romeo and Juliet it

Izumi! Quit ruining everything by driving our protagonists apart!

It feels like she doesn't even love her in a romantic way but it feels more possessive yandereish way with how she wrote her wish

Well, you know what they say. Can't enter through door, gotta try through windows.

WAIT. WE'RE LOOKING INTO THE FUTURE?!

Yes! You go, Izumi!

So Izumi is indeed in love with Fujishiro.

yeah but still useless lesbian

Yeah love triangles are a pain it's been several chapters now where nothing happens at all.

Exactly, most of the time they're just a stalling tactic that ultimately contributes nothing interesting and just leaves us with either a sad sympathetic side character or a vanquished mildly annoying villain.

erm.
Well.
. . .
yeah.
And I do like Izumi for the most part. Watching this amount to nothing is pretty boring though. I don't know what else to say. I guess If I somehow had the feeling she had a snowball's chance in hell of ending up with which ever girl she's interested in?

Edit: Well. I shouldn't call it "nothing" but still. Not interesting. A drag on the story that plays out the same way.

Edit: again. Sorry. Didn't mean to bitch about love triangles anymore. Gonna research good possible uses for them when I get a chance.

Well, now it's perfectly clear that Izumi is in love with Useless #1 and Useless #2 knows about it... so the question is, what will she DO about it? My guess? Try to distance herself from #1 because she feels that Useless #3 has priority because she's known her longer, leading to #1 becoming either sad or angry or jealous of Oblivious Otaku again.

As for the future date, it's probably something to do with the publication date of the magazine?

I hope Kanade can overcome her view on Nanaki as a princess that she can't possibly reach out to, because that's just how things are.

I hope Kanade can come to see Nanaki as a normal human bean with normal human flaws. I think then, and only then, can she really fall in love with her
