I hope the MC and the yandere end up together.

Their conversation and dynamic are actually funny. The trio became best buds (their group actually became bigger but most of the chaps are the trio) well not the frenemies, of course lol but at one chapter the yandere actually blushed and her eyes wasn't black from the MC's compliment .

Now I'm excited to see this.

hope this one comes back soon

I hate Maya :)

anyone knows when this comes back?

I hope the MC and the yandere end up together.

Yeahhhhhh no

May we expect a follow-up for this series?

hope it joins the club of series getting picked up!

The recent chapters have been absurdly great; hoping to hear when this'll get picked up again!

Looks like Kodansha released the official English ebook here. I wonder if this means no more free scanlations for this series.

Theres been 2 volumes of it out rn and i kinda dig the mc x yandere route tbh

thisnis on lilymanga chapter 47

"I hope the MC end up with her idol" "I think it would be great if the MC end up with the yandere" this that and that like...how about a poly relationship lol.

I've just read to the end of the series today. The whole series is very cute and wholesome, but it does not focus on romance or even have explicit romance at all, it's all about friendship (including how friendship functions with the intense feelings for one's idol in the mix) until the end. However there are good shipping material for MC Sakiko and the "yandere" Maaya all around, especially vol 04 and 05, and they end up living together when they are adults, and they hold strong friendship with Chihiro who continues working as an idol and visits the two all the times. One time Maaya confides with Sakiko that she does have [romantic] feelings for Chihiro, but never told Chihiro "because she might not know what to do with it" and keeping the current friendship is more important. Sakiko and Maaya bond together with that sort of feelings for their idol. So I guess it's more Subtext than outright Yuri.

I think it still counts as yuri. Maaya's feeling are explicitly romantic, just bc she chooses not to confess bc she figures it wouldn't be reciprocated doesn't mean they aren't there. Doesn't feel ambiguous or subtexty to me at all
