This would actually be a great chapter, If I actually gave a damn about these two.

Had to do a bit of memory spelunking based on the context given in text to remember literally who these two are, and they're already being more interesting than Mei and Yuzu have been in years anyway.

Count me in the "I have no idea who these two are" camp. Weren't we supposed to be developing Harumin and Matsuri now?

As an avid defender of Citrus+, and someone who still enjoys the earlier chapters (like Mei declaring her love for Yuzu to the school board, or her fussing over losing the ring), I gotta concur with y’all that these last few arcs have been a slog. It honestly feels like Saburouta doesn’t know what to do with the story anymore, which is a shame considering I’m constantly seeing fanfics infinitely more interesting than each new monthly (sometimes) update.

Maybe they know exactly what to do, but getting there (the 2 sweet situations we all want) would mean the end, and this is probably still selling pretty well so they won't give it to us unless it's the final volume.

I feel like that with Living with My Brother's Wife... Even with 2 more (or 3?) serialized ongoing series, the author has absolutely no intention of finishing any time soon apparently.

I think I partially disagree. I actually feel as though the last several chapters have been very thematically consistent: there's a big overarching theme going on right now about "what am I going to do with my future after high school?" It seems to me that Saburouta knows what she wants to do with the story; the question is whether or not she's going about it in the right way.

I agree that progress has been pretty slow, and this chapter did feel like a bit of an unnecessary detour. I've personally been waiting for more HaruMatsu, but that seems a long way off right now. I'm just trusting Sabu's judgment for now and hoping that everything falls into place soon.

Saburouta has taught me not to trust Saburouta’s judgement about anything.

At least someone understands.

When is the arc about the background characters from the Nina & Sara-school-trip sequence?

I mean, considering how it was already pointed out the last time that these two were at the wedding, I don't really get why so many people are surprised that we're getting an arc about them making up with Yuzu - and coming to accept her sexuality.

Oh, come on—there are so many unresolved issues concerning the main group of characters still hanging fire after dozens of chapters, but we need to go off on a tangent about the most obscure named characters in either series?

I mean, this is an author who disposed of the fully developed complex central conflicts of the original series in a handful of wordless single panels. How Yuzu got back on speaking terms with her semi-asshole middle-school friends is hardly a burning question.

I know that hes just trying to mock my intelligence by using big fancy words, & honestly I don't really care., I'm just here to enjoy a good read.

Now that you mention it, what happened to Sara and Nina? Did they ended up together?
Correct me if i'm wrong but i have a vague memory of Nina confessing to Sara, leaving the answer in the air and then it was never mention again

Oh, you're not wrong, and Citrus + really was supposed to be about expanding on all of that. But while I would have understood the surprised comments the last time, they do seem out of place now after we already started on this road in the previous chapter.

Well, right--these guys are a bit like Closet-Case-Kendo-san & and her Nene-Knockoff partner---(for some of us against our better judgement), we do care about the core cast, but the question arises as to why exactly we're supposed to give a fuck about these newcomers? (And the middle-school duo might as well be complete newcomers, since their brief previous appearances are buried so deeply in the original series).

Ultimately both pairs of characters do relate back to Yuzu specifically, but there's already plenty of dithering and uncertainty about how the core characters feel and what they plan to do in the future without the need to import more from the far reaches of the Citrus-verse.

Fair; OTOH the previous chapter came out here two months ago, and some of us aren't devoting a whole lot of neurons to this series. Yes, I could have gone and checked the previous chapter for possible context, and that would have more prudent.
