I could swear I have already read this first chapter.
But if it wasn't in Dynasty, where was it?
I can't remember at all. ( ͡ಠ ʖ̯ ͡ಠ)

On Mangadex maybe. Goon Squad did the first chapter there.

That daily salary though

This kind of reminds me of the one where the jaded OL finds the pretty JS passed out in the bushes in front of her apartment (can't remember the name, and there weren't too many chapters, IIRC).

That OL had a lot of frantic thought balloons about her attraction to the girl.

The girl had a bunch of money from an undisclosed source.

Not the same series, obviously.

This also kinda reminds me of that... I think it was a manhua, which only got one chapter, about a girl who hires another to snuggle her at night. Apparently this is a genre.

Speaking of Mangadex, has knight heron ever explained why they stopped uploading their stuff there?

You’re right, it was a manhua. And now I think I recall another series about a girl hired to cuddle—I think it was a college girl hired to sleep with a woman who couldn’t sleep alone. Might also have been a manhua.

Maybe we need a Cuddle for Pay tag.

I suspect ''onee-chan'' will be wanting more than cuddles before too long ;)

That daily salary though

That's about $80, isn't it?

You were thinking of A Collar Only For You, not a manhua.

This one is My Employer Can Only Sleep if I Hug Her (only has one single chapter)

Btw, the Twitter comic A Yuri Manga That Starts With Getting Rejected in a Dream by the same author will be serialized beginning next week. She said on Twitter that she's looking to see if the industry myth that yuri can't sell is actually real or not. More of this please.

Right, but a full-color long strip, which made me recall it as a manhua. Six chapters up on MD.

A tell-tale series title indeed. Thanks for the reminders.

Technically speaking, 100k yen a day falls under US federal minimum wage if the day in question lasts longer than 12 hours, and since I assume she's going to be there every day off from office work and post-office work hours, she'd better make sure she keeps that office job if she wants to be able to maintain the spoiling of her newly acquired "little sister."

I feel like there's a chance for drama here. Meguru's clearly projecting someone onto Kasane, so I'm sure it'll cause some drama in the future. Maybe if that someone comes back?

Lemme get my prediction in now. Meguru had a crush on her actual older sister, but since her family is currently out of the picture (for reasons that may have caused the sitting out in the rain scene) she's lonely and wants to replace said sister. Who I'm sure will come back and be the primary cause of drama.

Group is waiting for comments to be back on MD before uploading there again.

Can I ask what is industry myth that yuri can’t sell?

inb4 dead older sister or abandonment from older sister getting married lol

reminds me of that one series where the little sister has feelings for the older one and the older sister's friend ends up confessing and taking care of the little sister

that's the 'myth', that yuri does not sell copies. it's certainly a much smaller market than yaoi or het.

i think my enjoyment of this will largely depend on it not getting too dark, which in turn will largely depend on what happened to her actual older sister. if she's dead shit is gonna get freaky fast.

That's bonkers, comments on Mangadex were like 350% crazy people

I’m digging it. The only thing missing from the contract is lewd hand holding

I like this. But I can't shake the feeling that either this will be very angsty... or this should be very angsty.

I'm very upset that I relate to this protagonist so much.

I feel attacked

Same. This is the most relatable yuri protag i've ever read, and I never self-insert in anything I read.

Also the expressions are on point. Those wild but silent/internal reactions got me laughing with each page turn.

I love hijiki's art so much

Well, if she's paid every day, that's around $38,000 (PPP, not exchange rate), which isn't awesome but might be comparable to a shitty office job...

Ooo this is gonna be a good one I can feel it.

I'm in. I want to see how this goes. This author tends to do mostly fluffy stuff with mild drama, so hopefully this will turn out cute.

Seems promising, looking forward to the next chap
