This isn't just absurd anymore its ridiculous, preposterous even. And its hilarious

I wonder what their friends think of these two idiots, oblivious flirting in front of them.

"Wow, look at these two idiots obviously flirting in front of us"

I love it. ['now make them kiss' voice] NOW MAKE THEM GET DUMBER

Soon:
"It's normal for Best Friends to have sex."

She is so fucking stupid in such a unique way. Who the hell interprets it like that LOL

On the contrary, this might be the smartest thing Minami has done so far, just take it as a win and roll with it :P

Wow, I think this is the first chapter of a yuri manga in a WHILE that actually managed to piss me the hell off, we're reaching levels of trash not thought possible here.

??? This chapter was adorable. Minami is actually hopeful and expectant and Yuzu is making progress in spite of herself.

Like, you guys all get that when Minami says "Yep! Total Best Friend behavior" she knows that it isn't actually, right? She explicitly lays out her thought process: If Yuzu thinks this is "normal" for them, then she can't be more than a small push away from falling for her. She says "Yep, totally normal!" because she's trying to maintain that sense of closeness, not because she's actually dumb enough to buy the claim. This is the least useless Minami has been since this series started, she's clearly actively making moves. Kabedons, heart cookies, cheek kisses. Girl is on the attack, on purpose, because she has correctly sensed that it isn't a hopeless pursuit. She doesn't know that Yuzu actually is already head over heels, mind, she thinks she still has work to do, but she recognizes that the forehead kiss was definitely NOT far from a direct expression of romance, that's why her hopes soared.

(Edit: I mean, y'all, you realize the normal play for this trope is that Yuzu says "Yeah, totally a platonic forehead kiss!" and Minami would get all depressed about how it isn't romantic after all and lose heart? That's how this usually plays out. Minami going "Wow, that was SUPER gay for 'normal', maybe I've got a shot after all" is a subversion of the trope.)

As for the change in Yuzu's behavior, remember, until very recently, she was actively trying to surpress her feelings, because she already thought it was hopeless. The way I see it, now that Minami's on the offensive, like, actually trying to seduce her, her composure is cracking like a crumbling dam. She has changed, because she can't hold it in, because it's like Minami is TRYING to make her hope for more!

Because, y'know, she is.

I'm pretty sure she does think this is normal. She just argues that they've still progressed because they never kissed before as friends--this is new--so, for her, that counts as a new level of closeness. She imagines that there can't be many more steps left after best friends who kiss.

Is this manga a web manga? How do you know which is the web manga and which is the print manga?

I went from cheering when she pulled her into her bed immediately to booing and “no”-ing when she used being best friends as an excuse…

Praying to god for y’all to become lovers may help, but god fr can’t help you if you keep giving yourself down in this “best friends” hole.

I so badly wanted them to cuddle to…. Ughhhhh the slow burn is burning

Please kiss, I can't take it anymore

Please kiss, I can't take it anymore

Neither can they.

Art style keeps making me think of Can't Defy the Lonely Girl.

Yuzu is so chivalrous. Unfortunately...
Just give in, girl.

It's almost getting painful cheering those two idiot...

I really like bold minami ngl

I wanna scream "JUST KISS ALREADY!!!" but they technically already are doing that... Just not on the lips yet

I love those idiots so much, we're getting there!

Minami has cracked the code and doesn't even know it, victory is assured - and I look forward to seeing more of what true best friends really do

genuinely impressive how completely ridiculous this has gotten. i love how aggressive minami is at this point now that yuzu has inadvertently given her a free pass. we're only a few chapters away from "best friends fuck nasty and get married and spend their lives together" and yuzu going "boy i sure am glad im her best friend and not someone else! wish we could be lovers someday though!"

I wanna scream "JUST KISS ALREADY!!!" but they technically already are doing that... Just not on the lips yet

Then scream "JUST KISS ON THE LIPS ALREADY!!!" instead

It's hard even to make those "They'll marry and still worry if the other person sees them that way" jokes since the story itself is basically becoming just that.

Y'all have already done all the excited squeeing and stuff, so I'mma be the downer and mention the end of pg 13 and the first panel of 14. I get to thinking there's some sad backstory being hinted at there.

I'm here for their dads lowkey wondering when the wedding is. They seem to realize their daughters are lesbians, but I can't tell if they've figured out how useless they are...

Um...has anyone had "THE TALK" with these two? Because I'm pretty sure that laying in bed next to each other is how manga Lesbians get pregnant!

Hot take, but I would really love it if the series ended with them finding some else and moving on.
I know it won't happen, but personally, I would like to see a relationship that goes a more realistic route without having to over extend or over dramatize stuff.

Simple lesson: those who don't speak, aren't listen to.
