Did you think My girl Kimura was straight just because she crushed on a dude? Did you think Hiyana's attraction was a hopeless and onesided unrequited crush on a straight girl?!

Behold!!! Kimura was Bisexual all along!!

How the tables have turned. :D

Wait. Wait a goddamn moment. Since when exactly has this been goign on? Is it possible that, from the start, Kimura thought she was in love with Mizushima because of this kind of heteronormative thinking? That would be freaking hilarious.

Edit:Hmm. Having reread from the start that doesn't seem to be the case. New headcanon, Kimura is an unaware Bi disaster in love with both of them.

Chapter 23 and being called her wife seems to have been a turning point, leading to the big blush in 24 and the realization in 25.

Started happening a bit before that it seems, In chapter 21 Kimura’s mom mentioned how happy she was after the date in chapter 19 and how she was staying up late to try on the matching clothes Hiyama got her.

As much as I love this comic, I find it deeply concerning how Hiyama's friends appear to have severe anterograde amnesia.

“If she’s calling me her wife… what does this mean? Could it be that Hiyama-san…. likes me?????”

This is so stupid. And I mean that in the best possible way.

Charmingly stupid. Or stupidly charming. Or something.

That's not what it was she assumed because she only felt jealous when the rival and the dude where togehter she was in love with the dude but misunderstood her felling the one she liked was the girl the whole time

I think Kimura really did have a crush on Mizushima; she did get nervous whenever the two of them were alone together, not to mention this page. That said, when I reread the manga recently, I noticed that she's also always looked at Hiyama in a positive light. Even at the beginning, she admired her and wanted to be friends. For example, when her friend said she was Hiyama's rival, Kimura's response was "That's way too presumptuous!"; when Mizushima said he was surprised they were friends, Kimura thought "Does that mean it's strange for someone perfect like Hiyama-san to hang out with a plain person like me?"

To sum up, it's definitely possible Kimura was crushing on both Hiyama and Mizushima from the beginning, and was just focusing on Mizushima due to some combination of comphet and Hiyama's various antics scaring her. Now that she's gotten to know Hiyama better (and also gotten used to her...*unique* personality lol) she's starting to realize it more. It's been building since the ice cream "date," too; see here and here.

I think we've seen these chapters before? Author doesn't seem to have changed much content...

We have, they're just being recompiled. The new stuff starts Ch. 28

I was wondering if that was an artifact of how this series was spliced together from multiple places. It may have resulted in some inconsistencies.

The series started as a gag manga, no need to take it seriously guys

Anyone who says this kind of thing in response to a lively and fun discussion, I think is taking life too seriously. Try to have fun sometimes, and let others do it too without raining on their parade.

Since this manga only updates here and there, I actually really appreciated this summary. Thank you.

A poly relationship could be the answer, except Hiyama seems to hate Mizushima with the passion of a thousand suns.

Even if Hiyama didn't hate Mizushima I dout she would ever want to share Kimura with anyone else

I just wanna say that this is a gag manga, the yuri endgame is inevitable no matter what so no need to point everything out. But if you want to complicate things, I won't stop you

Everyone seems to reset in this manga. I was just thinking about it.

Ahhh it's back again!

I love that Kimura is starting to fall for Hiyama. Yet she still thinks that Kimura is going after the dude. So many misunderstandings abound!
