"figure ya could be any more transparent sis?"

How subtle, what with the furious blushing and all. Chances are their friends knew all along.

Ikr? But this is manga we're talking about, and most of the time (in romance) characters are conveniently extremely dumb

Still can't rule out the possibility. I do remember a very short bonus chapter, which both left me feeling like they, while not knowing about it for sure, were kinda on it (at least that's the impression I had), AND that left me thinking that those 3 are gay too.
Maybe I should re-read this manga afterall, since I may have misremembered.

I know what you're talking about. I think they were talking about getting a bf and one of them said "or a gf" and the other said both is fine these days. The third was a bit more shocked. I think the one with the glasses.
But I don't think they're gay. It felt more like they'd be accepting of Chidori and Nanoha dating

I'd honestly be disappointed if it wasn't to be revealed the other girls
a) already know about them dating
b) were intentionally playing oblivious because it was so much more fun to see them squirm
and c) were having a betting-pool between them about when the other two finally came out.

I can't read this properly anymore as I started watching Nanoha the other day (I'm only up to episode 2 strikers so please don't spoil me lol) and can't see the name Nanoha like I used to

I'm sure the attraction, even on a sexual level, has always been there, but they've just never been able to admit it to each other before. I do agree that in a sense this was a moment of awakening, though, especially for Chidori. It certainly may be a realization of real love, but less for her own feelings and more the full recognition that Nanoha truly does love her the way she loves Nanoha, and she's not going to pretend it's nothing like her Senpai did.

Actually I don't disagree with anything you just said. I think we just see the same thing, and describe it differently. I've always felt a hesitation in Chidori and Nanoha's relationship. If you look back over this discussion I've gotten into a few, lets say disagreements over it. So that has colored my view of this plot thread. You obviously didn't sense that (Not wrongly. I can't stress that enough.) So, you have a different point of view.

I’m delighted to see that you’re recovered from what seemed to be a rather serious case of yuri-skepticism.

May your good health continue, my friend!

Not so fast there. I still have a massive case of yuri-skepticism. It's my defence mechanism to protect me from my over sensative yuri-goggles. You're bound for endless disappointment, if you see yuri in every girl/girl interaction.

This is good and i finally got to read all the raws too so i’m glad that my japanese reading is still good in some ways:D

I think they didn't actually know before. There were too many scenes where one of them would've brought it up or acted differently if they'd known. However, I'm pretty sure at least one of them knows now.

Their smiles gives me life.

Gotta love that lewd shoulder pressing

Gah! This manga is so wholesome! I love it so much!~

What a legendary group!
Even mentioning the credits for the artworks used

Btw thanks for that manhwa recommendation in the credits. I've just read it and it's literally one of the best stories in the past years.

Not to mention holding hands right next to their friends.

Hmmm... so their friend ACTUALLY said HIM... I was wondering if she was image was everyone else's imagination of the presumed guy since there's no face. If she had used gender neutral terms I would have suspected that the person she was crushing on at her cram school was female...

These two certainly can get overheated just from the thought of kissing each other!

Ah! I am so happy to hear that! It's one of my absolute favourite series (assuming we're talking about "Her Tale of Shim Chong", "Between Summer & Fall" was fun but I mostly included that one because I thought the panel was hilarious).

Ah, the gender of the crush is actually ambiguous in the raws. Here is what schuyguy said when we were quality checking:

"Kumako doesn't refer to her crush by gender in the original. In fact, no one refers to her crush in any gendered manner throughout the entire conversation. But this is very common in Japanese. Usage of pronouns is rare, because once the subject is brought up you don't need to explicitly state it for the rest of the conversation. Unfortunately, you have to make a choice in English. Any translation of that exchange that avoided the use of gendered pronouns would sound unnatural in a way the original doesn't. If I used "them" then it would draw attention to the lack of a defined gender in a way the original doesn't. It just doesn't work the same way in English. If you refer to a singular person as "they", people ask for clarification."

So, here, Kumako doesn't refer to this person as "him" until someone else does first. They made an assumption, and she went along with it.

Yes I was talking about that! I'm in the look out for new series, so finally I found something worthwhile. If you want more people to get to know it too, maybe make a thread here and upload the first chapter (since that one is for free).
I actually wanna talk about it a bit more, but won't do it here.

GIRLS! STOP RELIVING THAT ONE KISS AND JUST KISS SOME MORE! A WHOLE LOT MORE!
