There are five chapters of this out at the moment. Typesetter-chan was kind enough to help me with this one so I don't have to do everything myself like the first chapter. This is a pretty good manga in my opinion, especially in the next few chapters. If you like the emotional roller coaster types of stories, this one's for you. The manga admittedly tries to play coy about what it really wants to do, but everything will become clear soon enough.

With the exception of Ako every one else's motivations/feelings are hinted at. I love reading between the lines and I appreciate how subtle everything is at the moment so I'm definitely hooked.

this... will be utterly painful. gonna be honest here, I'm rooting for Yuki. If anything happens between her and her goals i'll punch someone.

I'm rooting for Yuki too. The friend hardly ever gets the girl and her character so far seems decent. I'm hoping Komachi’s not in love with Ako, just obsessed because she wants their 'twinness' to remain strong, so Yuki won't feel like a rebound.

"I'm hoping Yuki's not in love with Ako"

You mean Komachi instead of 'Yuki', Komachi being the younger twin?

Thanks for the catch but either way, it works cuz I’m hoping Yuki only has eyes for Komachi.

Well well

This looks pretty interseting so far...

wtf is happening

I feel like sensei will never like her that way
so I'm rooting for the other twin and their friend

You know, i don't usually root for the twincest ending, but this might be my first time. Its just that i feel awkward AF whenever the sensei and the not-so-creepy twin do anything lovey dovey. Like it feels kinda forced, i dunno, i'll just have to wait and see.

but everything will become clear soon enough.

Nice

Ako's moving way too brash and fast. I love her cockiness tho.

She has to.

If she's not forceful and firm, she'll be dismissed.

So she's gambling her everything on it.

Also, Sensei said she'd like someone who's forceful :P

What is the anxiety Ako's feeling?

It will become clear in time. We're just two chapters away from the latest raws.

The attempt at hair cutting ??... Whats that meant to mean..

Can't wait for more now that we've seen more of Maki's thoughts and such. Curious who that girl from her youth might be and how that flashback will relate to the present going forward. Also, I really wanted Ako to realize how uncomfortable Maki was on the "date," but nope, a disguise will fix things!

I really like how everything in this manga is just ever so slightly "off." It's really hard to convey it in translation, but I think the author made the dialogue intentionally stilted to help give that feeling. Not sure if our translation really gets that feeling across, but I did my best.

EDIT: Some translation notes for chapter 3 - This chapter heavily relied on the words "間違う" "wrong/mistake" and "正しい" "correct/right/proper" to an almost unsettling degree. I had to sacrifice some readability to accentuate the importance of the words "right" and "wrong" in this chapter.

Probably to make herself look like her sister and maybe trick Sensei into something? I can't say for certain.

@Lucas Magnus

The translation doesn't need to perfect to get across that feeling. Komachi is being creepy af and people are smiling at all the wrong times. Plus the title literally primes us for bad feels.

I feel sorry for Yuki, she seems like the most innocent party here and only had the bad luck to crush on a messed up person.

The whole manga feels stilted. Not in a bad way though. It’s just the tone of the story. Everyone has things they want to say and/or a refusal to act on things. So far we have Ako and Maki’s ‘reasons’ for possibly continuing a relationship. It’s simple enough, they both make each other feel good.

Now for Komachi I don’t know enough about her. Is she just one of those twins that relish in having a single identity? But then she hasn’t cut her hair like her sister so I’m guessing she’s the type that’s obsessed with her sister, (still don’t know whether it’s romantic though) and just wants to do anything and everything so they won’t lose their bond. She’s complicated since we don’t know her intentions.

Poor Yuki. Hope she’s equipped to handle Komachi... who probably just cut herself....

I wonder if flashback girl is connected to both Chie and Maki.

Oh shit what about to go down....

Cuts hair to match the sister -> pretends to be her -> mess up the relationship -> OOF
