HAHA!! Your so smart and clever! How foolish of me, to think I could ever measure up to your incomparable genuis!

It's still dumb to leverage your own future like that to make a point.

I mean, do we have a reason to believe she's lying when she says there's nothing she wants to pursue? ... I guess that remains to be seen.

I don't know, I do think Subaru is right that it kind of sucks ass for Asahi to use making sacrifices for her as an excuse to just not care about herself at all and make no effort towards her own happiness and dump the burden of feeling responsible for that onto a kid. Everything Asahi does revolves around Subaru and she's staked her entire identity on that and it must be a source of pretty major guilt that she's the reason her sister refuses to have anything for herself.

Sure, but the way she specifically used college as a way to make this point is incredibly dumb and childish. I'd hardly call it some unusual sacrifice for her to want her younger sister to go to college, that's normal.

It's not actually about college, paying for college is just the only sacrifice she can actually stop Asahi from making to make her point. I wouldn't be at all surprised if she rescinded her refusal as soon as Asahi started making herself a priority.

I think the fact that it's college is important, and part of why this is the last straw for her. Subaru's graduation from high school is the first real chance she has to free Asahi from looking after her, and thus free herself from her guilt for dominating her sister's life. Going to university full time is committing to spending four more years as a dependent. And I think letting Asahi support her while she goes to college would really intensify her guilt, because then she'd be enjoying a privilege that Asahi herself had to give up.

That's a good point, I can definitely see that being the case.

We have no idea whether Subaru has any real interest in continuing her studies or if she has any specific career ambitions. You know, like many high school students.

It’s often far preferable for young people to try working for a while, and maybe living outside the parental home, to see what that’s like before going on to college; those people are often more highly motivated academically than people who go right from college to high school merely because that’s the expected thing to do.

Assuming that college is the only right choice for Subaru is simply projecting one’s personal values into a bogus generalization.

Teenagers with pent-up frustrations acting dumb and emotional? PREPOSTEROUS! Who has ever heard of such a thing.

I bet you also think piracy is theft and torrenting is unethical, and that we should "support studios creators and artists" by consooming.
Sorry, sorry, didn't mean to be such an as*hole, but go ahead and keep consooming.

Also, at risk of being banned (again), why is dynasty such a pus*y? I come here since is one the bests sources for yuri manga, but theres a lot of other sites that dgaf about licensed content. This also applies to other issues like loli manga. I mean, there's certain loli manga that hasn't been updated here for some reason but in other site there are like 10 new chapters now.

Don't make posts like this.

Right? Especially when this is a problem that been weighing heavily on her. Plus, we saw how happy Subaru was when she thought Asahi was the one who was thinking about college. Subaru would probably love to finally give back to her sister by joining the workforce and helping Asahi get through college first. Not the most logical option, but emotions are a part of who people are. If Subaru just ignored her feelings and went to college, those negative emotions would probably plague her for the rest of her life.

Irrational or not, this was very good for the both of them.

The end of Chapter 12 is a HUGE leap in character growth for Hinako! Sure, she's not outright confessing her feelings to Asahi, but she is at least asserting herself, taking advantage of the opportunity Asahi has provided for her, and stating her desires (in a sense, at least, by saying "I want to have you all to myself").

This manga is another great stride in representation in yuri manga! Hinako realizes that she is in love with Asahi, though she doesn't necessarily feel sexual attraction, at least not yet. This suggests that Hinako MIGHT be asexual/homoromantic, or she could be a demi-sexual lesbian. It was very clear from the early part of the manga that she has NEVER felt either sexual or romantic attraction to men. Over the course of the 12 chapters so far, it is clear that she DOES feel a romantic attraction toward Asahi. However, she seems to be wavering about whether she is interested in a physical relationship. Of course, we really don't know what Asahi's position is on any of this since she has pretty much closed herself off from relationships of any sort in order to be mother, father, and older sister to Subaru.

I really am looking forward to the next chapter! I expect it will reveal some hidden emotions at least!

This is one of the few current series that I'm following religiously and I'm not sure if I can wait for the the official releases to catch up even if it means we will technically get new chapters faster afterwards.

This was a nice chapter honestly, really enjoyed it, hopefully after this Asahi will quit the whole "doing everything for my little sisters sake" and start looking after herself more, kinda surprised she was the one to run away instead of Subaru though lmao

I've read the first chapters all together again, and I liked the story better. All characters are likable and the story flows naturally without any forced plots or drama.
Too bad this got licensed, but I'll still keep my eyes on this regardless

Shit is the next chapter not going to be here then because of the license? Oh my God. What the hell? No!

At the beginning of the chapter, she said they hoped the peaceful life would go on forever until this happened. I have to see what this happened is!!!!! Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!

Also gotta shell out the money for this now. Too good not to support. The pain... I really shouldn't complain though given how much free manga I get here in general.

I did buy all of "take my fist of love" now that it's complete from Japan. This one is getting translated to English though so I got to support translations of lesbian manga.

Is it just me, or is the moon shown in two different phases in the same night in chapter 12? I wonder if it's for symbolic reasons...

Reread this for the 4th time, it keeps getting better!! It might actually beats Bloom Into You and Octave as my favorite introspective yuri manga ever... And for some weird reason I cannot put my hand on, after rereading this, I am actually content with how A Tropical Fish Yearns for Snow depicts the relationship between its MCs (yes, the girlship). Cannot really understand why lol.
