Um, not really at all? Maybe the tiniest bit in the character designs, but Sun Jing is a boisterous slacker tomboy who aggressively pursues Qiu Tong, who isn’t a gyaru, but a rather shy high achiever.

Where do you see the similarities?

Overalls and hoop earings, in different styles? These two look great together. The author is spoiling us with this art and I don't mean spoiling the plot. It's very sweet to see these two act so naturally toward one-another in a way we're probably nowhere near seeing in the story.

High school romantic comedy webcomic about two girls, one cool one girly, discovering their sexuality, punctuating the current drama with fluffy hops forward on the timeline to reassure the reader that "Yeah, don't freak out, they're totally gonna end up together, they're just not there yet."

I think in that case the author started with the spot illos of the two of them obviously together (I especially recall a slinky bar scene with the pair up close and personal) before launching into the extended “will they or won’t they?” getting-together narrative.

So those forecasting scenes were less sops to the reader about where the story was going than the originary visuals of the character designs. (There was at least a flash-forward Christmas scene of the two of them living together, but that happened after the two of them became a couple in the main narrative, IIRC.)

This is bliss... I dig (and want more) stoic cool chic X gyaru chic comics.

I wonder if their moving involves assembling new furniture . . .

^Life imitating art, and improving the potential verisimilitude. I'd buy that for a dollar.

Ok my Japanese is not the best and there are a few sentences I don't fully understand so take this with a grain of salt but I believe this is more or less what happens.

Hey. You want to take my place and translate it?

I'm losing patience with people who can't wait a few hours and spoil left and right.

I'm taking the time to redraw the SFX, so it takes a bit of time. Wait, instead of trying to be smart.

Hey sorry, I wasn't trying to step on your toes. Wasn't aware posting half baked attempts at translation were some kind of faux pass. From my perspective there was a large enough of a gap between whatever ramblings I wrote and your final product that my post seemed of little importance. I respect and appreciate the hell of what you do, especially considering how time consuming all the redrawing stuff is and how quickly you put stuff out. I took my post down.

I WOKE UP FROM A NIGHTMARE AND AM NOT READY FOR THISSSSSS
