I don’t think she’s autistic. It has more to do with her upbringing. She kind of had to grow up sooner because of her dad’s position, everyone even her mother, kind of just expected her to responsible.

Her parents relied on her to be good and then because she was so responsible, the adults sort of separated her from other kids and dubbed her as practically the perfect daughter. The separation bled in with her peers and they all thought she was this poster child/senpai.

Everyone put her on a pedestal and she felt like she had to live up to their standards.

Anyway, in my head they reconciled with a kiss instead of a hug

So wholesome! T_T
These two last chapter's were awesome, can't wait to see the next one! :3

Yeah I found the ending pretty beautiful, but the comments were stuff like "I hate Koyuki or I hate Konatsu! and this whole arc was awful and they even said they hate the author too! I can feel they weren't happy at all to read this chapter, they just were "about time!!" that kind of desperate people really piss me off, and I'm in a good mood now, I don't need that vibe!

Of course, saying that this took too long to concluded is valid criticism (it feels longer because of the schedule) but there's never need to hate o.O and those comments are just a waste of time if they'll come back next chapter anyway.

You ain't seen inane complaining until you've read the post on /u/ blasting the author for drawing too many pages and selfishly taking space away from other authors in the magazine.

Oh yeah--that's some primo butthurt right there.

Honestly the way the parents treated this makes this seem more gay than it probably is. XD Mom's whole knowing "go get your girlfriend back" vibe killed me.
Now kisuuu!! >:[

I'm just hoping that at the end, Konatsu will ride Koyuki's back and they'll fly to the horizon with "THE END"

I’m glad they made up it’s nice to see them happy together
now can they just date.......

Ok. Now kiss

This series is such a tearjerker

the illustrations of the salamander and the frog are so... deep. It gives me chills how well this is done.

isn't this really a yuri manga? huh!? I want more sweet line T-T

Going to be very curious how the upcoming chapter goes now that we've seemingly addressed the manga's core conflict....

Seriously, the parents' conversations in this series are like the subtext-iest thing in the whole story.

Anybody hear anything about why we didn't get a chapter last month? I don't think one ran in the magazine and Hagino hasn't tweeted in a bit....

Think Covid hit Japan, Hagino hasn't posted any updates for the manga but posted a video on YouTube :(

She also posted a pretty nice FFVIIR fanart on her twitter so she must be doing okay. Maybe the magazine itself got delayed?

No, the magazine itself definitely ran - I bought raws hoping to get a sneak peak of the new chapter, lol

She did an art stream tonight, tho, so she's definitely still fine and working on the manga. Maybe we'll finally pick back up this month?

As long as she's doing well and there are no issues with the manga. I can wait.

A small detail but which may have its importance in the future of the manga, she twited the launch date of the last of us 2 postponed, while this game has lesbian relationships in its history ....

She follows Nio Nakatani on twitter and she's drawn a whole bunch of doujins and fanart with girls kissing posted on this very website, I don't think her interests are exactly hidden, lol.

honestly how is this not yuri?

It's back!!! I'm so happy T-T

I was so scared reading this, because we're only at the start of her recovering from that prolonged turmoil, so the last thing we needed know what's another cause of drama or anguish, but looks like everything will be daijoubu... Apparently because we don't know what her answer is, instead of a good bye? maybe, a place to return or... a promise to come back? I won't waste my time thinking about it, come on author, hit me with that part 2!! I'm ready!

Seeing her thinking about the President (... :P) during her most vulnerable moment was touching.. And well, about frogs too haha.

Well, is not lizard, that's for sure.

The cliffhanger at the end, smh. I love the feels this manga gives me though, even though it drags the suffering for a while, it doesn't fail to get me emotional

I got a vibe from this chapter that the next one might be the last.

It's so nice to see them playfully teasing each other now, it sure took a while to get there. As for the new club members, I wonder if they're actually going to be important or not since they didn't even get names.

Same, but that would be really sudden. Going by the words of Konatsu's aunt to her father about not taking away the place where she belongs again, I think it's more likely that this situation will end with him realizing that Konatsu is finally doing well and that he'd be doing her a disservice by going back to Tokyo together with her before she graduates. Konatsu clearly doesn't seem ready to leave yet either.

After all, there'd be no need to introduce the club members if it was just going to end now with Konatsu leaving. Logically, they're there because Koyuki is the one who will be leaving first since she graduates in a few months and Konatsu will be taking over the club in her third year.

Oh, and I've always felt like the final chapter is going to have both Konatsu and Koyuki's names in the title.
