Feels like the author's brain melted along with the story while drawing the sex scenes. Shion deserved better. And Nozomi's development made as much sense as Citrus's plot progression

Shion deserved bettter indeed and Nozomi's progression was in fact dumb as shit. Can't win them all I guess.

That's an insult to Citrus... and me, who finds Citrus mediocre, saying that, well... that's saying something!

I don't understand how the MC can change her mind in just 2 or 3 pages. Im afraid to say that...Citrus did it better. I think I just expected more of it(?)

Usually 50% story+50% porn doesnt work that well but this was particularly jarring. Drama about consent/love together with Mira-tier sex was not a good combination.

The real twist of the story is that Nozomi was a top all along!

This had me crackling. I don't agree (Citrus is hands down better than this) but it made so much sense while making none that I couldn't help but laugh.

I don't like it, the ending is way too sappy, and it doesn't sit right with me how the story suddenly shifted to portray Shion as so selfless and kind and Nozomi as thoughtless for not noticing her feelings. Like, hello? Shion totally did betray her by using Nozomi's weakness to satisfy her pent-up desires, the accusation is well-deserved. And Nozomi was right to blame her for that.

But I guess she suddenly fell in love with her, changing both her tune and her sexual orientation in one fell swoop, so that makes everything OK, or something. What the fuck.

Lesson learned: If you can draw decent porn, stick to that, don't try to tackle heavy themes like consent and assault, and unrequited love across gender lines, only to wrap them up in a neat, kitschy romance bow that makes no fucking sense.

Maybe all the sex melted my brain as well because honestly I didn't think it was all that bad as far as real smutty work goes
Like I don't know maybe being real close to someone for that long might make it easier to fall in love with them especially when you think of what they've done and meant to you
Like I dunno I've read way worse smut than this

I can't believe the whole story just revolved around a flashback.

I think it all feels a bit off, not so much the story itself but the pacing of it all is way too quick.

Needs to be more time for her emotions to develop and to understand what she did before the change

I actually thought this was a mature and interesting take on a relationship like this. It shows that perception, ignorance and naivety, wilful or not, can cause a lot of problems.
The 'im suddenly in love with you' was very cliche as i was kind of expecting Nozomi to have actually loved Shion for a long time (as well) but was ignorant to it because perhaps she saw loving another girl as being "wrong" or "disgusting" and it taking almost losing Shion to realize it.
Contrary to others, i think this still had a better plot than Citrus.

This is something I would like to imagine as a heart-broken fantasy, when you love someone so much, you just want to be with them. And this manga comes with a simple fantasy realizing that desire. At least Shion is happy!

Ya'll do know that hentai plots are never that good and we are mainly here for the titty rubbing and clit flicking action, riiiiight?
In any sense the plot isn't that bad, Nozomi was always bisexual, just in denial. When she grabs Shion's boobs as a "prank" she excused herself thinking Shion found it "gross." Then got the closetted lesbian vibes and quickly hid in her own closet too and friendzoned the crap outta her.
She knew Shion's feelings and took advantage of them and then found out, hey I actually did enjoy getting fucked by my female friend. Maybe, we should just try it out, who knows, it might work.
And bam it did. Sometimes shit really be like that.

I know a woman who told me a while back she was bicurious but has never tried it with another woman. Recently she got drunk and made out with one of her female friends. It escalated just about this quick, and the only reason they didn't go all the way was because her friend was on her time of the month.
Now this woman knows she's bisexual. All it took was some alcohol. lol

Life and love is complicated often, I think it's ok to acknowledge and explore that in this medium
