I'm in the camp that doesn't mind the lack of physical intimacy. I've heard that love is fundamentally based in friendship, so seeing Kurumi and Ruriko grow closer, iron out some of the issues in their living arrangement and gradually fall in love was a natural development. Having a modified version of their rules as their vows is a good way to show how far they've come, and to show that the fundamental foundation of their relationship- their years-long friendship- was there all along.

Another wholesome manga ended. I really like this series but I think the ending is kind of rush? After reading ch31 and the last chapter together, the vibe just feels a bit off, like they didn't get enough panels to convey out all the fluffy feelings like previous chapters, and where's the bouquet you're gonna throw щ⁠(⁠゜⁠ロ⁠゜⁠щ⁠)

more extra chapters as this is still labeled as ongoing? Well, I really enjoyed this refreshing adult relationship as things that I've read all revolved around hs lol

I teared up at the wedding. What a beautiful way to end it.

Of course I would like to read more but overall I think this story was a good length. It wasn't too short and it never overstayed its welcome. I've already pre-ordered the Seven Seas localization. I'm really happy this got picked up.

Happy ending!! So happy for them!!

Sigh, it's over now... I'll miss it a great deal, it was a nice little part of my life for a while, and as sad as I am to have that part die, it was going to do so sooner or later anyway... Thank you for your hard work, Usui-sensei, the editorial staff, and the translators. Goodbye, Kurumi and Ruriko, and congratulations on the wedding. This was quite precious.

thank you, author!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ending feels rushed and cold, which is a different vibe from the rest of the series. Something I like about this author is that they're able to make soft, fluffy relationships even from an aroace perspective, but this felt off. Was the series cancelled and cut short or something?

I disagree, I thought the ending was very fitting. But regardless of that, how was this series aro? When the characters are have explicitly expressed that they are in love?

Way late seeing this, but you don't seem to know what aromantic is? It doesn't mean two (or more) people can't love each other if they're on the aro-spectrum. It means they don't do the whole typical romance thing, or take some things but leave some things. The relationship in this series and Crescent Moon and Doughnuts is clearly queerplatonic-ish at least.

Looks like she was friendzoned?

rio getting rejected last minute is so out of pocket I can't help but respect it

Oof, Rio. Friend-zoned in the closing pages.

Rip Rio. You've tried

Dang. I'm used to ships, especially side couples, not happening, but the way it's done here feels like a taunt towards the shippers.

Still a better ship sinking than Amanchu.

F for Rio
THE WEDDING MADE ME TEAR UP IM SO HAPPY

Can't wait for the hentai extra chapter

nooooo rio bb nooooo

It's even funnier that in the bonus for Doughnuts (which I don't think is on the site) there was actually some (very light) teasing about Subaru x Fuuka, while here the author went in the other direction where it's arguably more believable lol

Oof that bonus with Rio.

Rip Rio. Also hurray for the final chapter of this manga, what a good year to be alive for the gays media lovers :3

Adorable. ^_^

And I wouldn't worry too much yet about Rio getting friendzoned considering the manga we're in. :P

And they were besties

Very adorable series, thanks for the translation and the extra!

Oof, Rio. Friend-zoned in the closing pages.

Given the entire premise off the manga, all I can think of is

"All of this has happened before, and all of it will happen again."

bestfriends can get married too :3

yeah, your right with the way the relationship has been in this manga it does remind me of Crescent Moon and Doughnuts, tho i don’t like Crescent Moon, i didn’t even finish it once i found out it’s aro since I’m not relating at all with the whole we are best friends +2, without full blown romance it just doesn’t click with me

now that i think about it there are quite a lot of yuri mangas that are quite thin on the romance aspect! either the author didn’t wanna go full blown to show the relationship or they did the whole” we are together at the end” so that’s way i will avoid the whole aro thingy if there is a story like that
