I really love this series, and the credits pages are the cherry on top.

This chapter makes me feel like if they want me to bond with a dead guy. Her brother's past story really doesn't matter to me. I get she is suppose to have chara. growth before the story keeps going, but honestly it just feels like the mangaka is stretching this out because they can't decide what to do or how to end it. We have this back and fro from them with slight undertones... it really reminds me of Strawberry Panic! when Shizuma couldn't decide to get with Nagisa or keep holding onto her ex. Like, ughhhh get over this arc already.

But this manga has no arcs, just short suspense, the only one I could think as an "arc" is the ring issue... That took a while

Yeah, this is pretty much slice of life, with the character developments primarily in terms of how the two of them deal with the loss of the brother and with each other as a (mostly) non-romantic dyad.

If I were primarily interested in this series as a potential yuri romance, I might find it to be pretty frustrating. But I’m not, so I have no problem with it continuing indefinitely.

(To be clear, I expect that Shino’s eventually going to come up gay, and realize that part of her feelings for Nozomi are tied up with her sexuality. But whether that leads to her partnering with Nozomi or with someone else I have no idea.)

It's chpt 92 now, it's been so long yet it feels like nothing really happened.

What if this is actually super comfy slice of life but the author doesn't realize how serious and dramatic the faces look sometimes?

"Gentlest way", right... :D

Did not expect the ending to be so lewd, though...

Winning a translation of a any doujin you want is a really great raffle. Translator knows what people really wants lol. And it has been a while since I read this manga and I thought that maybe they talked some about their problems with each other but nope still gay family suspence carries on. But I still really like that you can feel how much they care about each other

"USE THE INTERWEBS!"

lol

MCs should just submit a marriage application already, I really want this to be a yuri. Don’t go like ‘My Unrequited Love’ where we’re given the epilogue to confirm but it still looks like a subtext, meh.

If they do end up getting together, the payoff would be so good. I mean 9 volumes and they're still not there.

So heavy,

well, i like the big brother concept though, he have other clue to the progression of the story. like he's saying to Minato when Shino is not doing well just do some sports, etc.

and the ring arc, i thought it will be the turnpoint when Shino and Nozomi will get better with their relationship tho.
too bad.
mann, just rushed 93 chapters.

for now, hold like a months. want to read some "comedy yuri flirting" rn

Someone has a different definition of the word "Gentle" than most of the population....

I hope Nozomi also gives chocolate to Shino

Not even subtext, huh?

So tell me again how I'm not supposed to see this as yuri when she keeps blushing like that...

Quoting myself:

if mutual-blush-sex is a thing, these two have have been going at it like bunny rabbits since Day 1.

Minato's ikemen energy OP pls nerf

Aggressive subtext, should be illegal

Okay, aren't these "hints" a bit too blatant!? I honestly would have been fine with this story, whether it turned out to be yuri or not... but with how things are going, I cannot possibly see this as simple teasing on the author's part anymore!

Also, I think it's interesting how it seems that maybe Shino has been feeling something more...? than familial love for Nozomi since before the death of her brother. Then again I suppose this could also pass as her being happy to have a person like a mother/sister figure, since she had lost her mother at such a young age. Maybe.

I don't know, I might be misinterpreting things, perhaps my hoping that it's something more makes it seem so...?
Nah, it really is too much to pass off as a joke anymore. I mean, Shino is way too conscious of Nozomi. And even though this awkwardness seemed normal at first, because of their unusual not-quite-sisters circumstances, now it seems to be something entirely different.

Anyway, what is absolutely certain is that Shino cherishes Nozomi a lot. But I feel that lately the author is deliberately giving hints (and not as comedy or fanservice, but as actual hints) that this feeling is leaning towards that of a romantic love rather than that of a sisterly or mother-daughter relationship, like it was/seemed to be at first.

Knowing the history of the author (they wrote plenty of yuri), it's obvious that it's their tropism at play.

As for if it foreshadows something between them, it's still too evanescent to be conclusive.

Only six chapter to go before we hit 100 and there's still not even a subtext tag. This is either never going to turn into Yuri or its the most ambitious go at making the slowest slow burn ever.

This slow burn is killing me lmao xD slow roasting.
