This is so so so good, delicious yuri pastry, im totally addicted. You can never tell what's going to happen next, and the energy keeps changing and keeping you off balance. the bocchi-esque anxiety setup is really fun, but I love how they make it serious sometimes when you least expect it, and it hits really hard. it's deeply deeply erotic without anything really sexual going on, and I think that's incredibly impressive.
The dynamic between the two girls is pure kino, the premise of the teasing, experienced, older girl who's maybe a little bit mean and doesn't quite have her partner's best interests in mind constantly getting flanked and knocked off her feet and wrapped around her little finger is incredible, and those Moments that suuna has and the mysterious erotic energy shifting about underneath the surface really sell that kind of thing so well.
There's an ineffable Something going on in this manga, something in the hot blushes and the damp, hushed mouths and the gorgeous faces and generous bodies and those moments where Suuna crosses some kind of edge between them; in the way Suuna doesn't notice as she sinks into it while it leaves Ruka breathless and flushed and disoriented... this crackling, flickering background energy of pure erotic potential that can reemerge out of nowhere and shift the genre and tone into something breathless and slow and rich like dark chocolate, before fading back into a comedy about this oblivious anxious girl and people who might be her friends. But you always know it's there in the background. All you can do is anticipate it coming back again, in the middle of a joke or a touching character moment, whenever you least expect it. Because anything could happen. Anything.
