Nice to see Machida-san keeping the ship strong 88 chapters later. I really like the increased use of wordless parallels in the last few volumes. Probably my fav extra so far, they're always so cute.

They're approved by a local cute granny, so I guess that's good enough for me.

So did the original Ms. Sunflower dye her hair, or did it change color because of her illness?

This chapter was so cute, but the reminiscing about the former Ms. Sunflower and Yuu being able to appear without an angst tag is sure some development.

I'm surprised Miss Sunflower knows the word 'siscon'.

She does read a lot, after all.

Well, what is she reading, though?

Miss Sunflower is an introvert with an old-fashioned style, but she’s not a hermit. She went to high school. Ayame, for example, could have explained “siscon” to her at any time.

Ms Sunflower: Say, what's a siscon?
Ayame: Well...
Kaoru: [walks in]
Ayame: That is.
Ms Sunflower: I see.
Kaoru: What.

Shiori, huh

Dammit. It ended for real this time.
107 chapters, and we finally know Miss Sunflower's real name. Matsuri visited the previous Miss Sunflower's grave, and a whole page of Shiori saw Miss Sunflower smiling kindly. What a perfect ending for this wholesome journey (if only there was a scene where Shiori said she liked Matsuri back, I wouldn't have any regrets)

We still don't know Nii-san's real name tho...

And here it is, the end. I really loved this story, so me saying what I'm about to say isn't me disliking it. But I really wouldn't mind something more firm at the end. I know, I know. They're basically married by now. I'm fine with how it was presented till the end because that's the kind of story this was. But just a little bit thrown our way at the end wouldn't hurt. Greed is part of human nature, or so they say. Regardless, the only REAL thing I'm disappointed with is that it's already done. What a fun journey this was. I enjoyed it, some bits more than others, but overall from start to finish I had a blast. I'll prolly revisit this story from time to time in the future.

Is Ms Sunflower. Is weak to the sun. That's funny.
And she went and invited Matsuri to live with her. Guess that's about as close to a proper I love you we're getting.
And we got her name, people!

Boy, oh, boy, a decade's worth of precious memories just came to a close. Thanks to the scanlation teams, that brought this beautiful manga to this side of the world. Thanks to Sugano Manami for creating it. Thanks to our fellow readers for their comments and discussions. Thanks yo our mods for keeping it civil.

See you later, everyone.

Leaving these wonderful characters to their imaginary world is sad. I hate to say goodbye to a cherished family even if I can come back any time and see them growing in love, friendship and grace in my mind’s eye.
Thank you to Sugano-Sensei for this masterpiece, and to the scanlators for bringing this unique slice of life to us.
(I do hope Shiori, Matsuri and all these lovely people will come back though.)

*slams desk*
AND THEY WERE ROOMMATES

Tears up when she revealed her name, and definitely crying when she propose to Matsuri about living together... Such a blessing ending for this masterpiece that followed us for years. Hoping to see Manami Sugano again in the future and for many works.

I'm honestly disappointed, it just feels I waited years for almost nothing, we didn't even get a chapter of them just hanging out without anyone interrupting them.

Cute name tho.

About what could be expected. Overall nice, certainly the kind of manga that grows on you over time. Might be interesting to read it in one go now that it's entirely done, but I don't think that'd do too much for me.

Wonder whether some other "older" yuri manga are still on somebody's completion list? Kinda makes you wonder what's out there, or what you started reading at various points and kinda forget about since people stopped scanlating ^^;

An era has finally come to a close, and I'm just not ready for it. T_T

And here it is, the end. I really loved this story, so me saying what I'm about to say isn't me disliking it. But I really wouldn't mind something more firm at the end. I know, I know. They're basically married by now. I'm fine with how it was presented till the end because that's the kind of story this was. But just a little bit thrown our way at the end wouldn't hurt. Greed is part of human nature, or so they say. Regardless, the only REAL thing I'm disappointed with is that it's already done. What a fun journey this was.

I'd say that my level of greed is just about the same as yours. This series was exceptionally great--one of my all-time favorites. It started out being fun and charming, and then it got better and better.

And we know beyond all doubt that they're as "together" for the long haul as any two people are going to be. But my greedy monster is wistful for a Miss-Sunflower-initiated hug or just a little more something.

Monsters don't always get what they want, though.

honestly I'm very happy with this and you can say like "oh but they didn't even kiss or oh they didn't even confess in no uncertain terms" but like. Why should things like that be the end all be all signifier of a relationship when this entire story has revolved around Matsuri and Shiori's relationship to one another.

And like sure we don't get the no uncertain terms "I love you Matsuri" from Shiori but we sure as hell do get an assload of romantic symbolism putting their relationship on equal terms as the original miss sunflower grandma and grandpa on top of which they're living together and everyone around them agrees they've changed each others lives for the better. So like even without a kiss or grand confession this the gayest shit imaginable and has been the entire way through.

I'm sad to see this end but I'm also looking forward to whatever else this author decides to make in the future.

A lovely ending, and we do get them moving together after all. ^_^

Totally agreed.

Roommate ending

A lovely wholesome ending for a lovely wholesome series.
Thanks to everyone who brought this to us, and especially the author.
Can't wait to see what we get next from them!

Oh my god they were roommates

Nnnooo it's over! I cried. It was really nice to see ponytail Matsuri at the end. And the flower girl one last time. And to get her name. The fidgeting after her "proposal" was great, too. Matsuri changed a lot throughout the story. Did Shiori, too? I'm not sure, but it was wonderful nonetheless.

I just removed 70% of my body through crying, thank you for this wonderful series.

Can't believe it's over, this is the series that made me start reading Yuri/Shoujo ai, I love this characters so much that it's a little bittersweet to think that there won't be anymore but I only have love for this story. Miss sunflower made me laugh and cry till the very end ❤️
