Poor girl must've hatched into some kind of a Gay-ban Renmei. .. Very nice and well thought out. But what's the author's apology about? Ahead of what story?

That kind of blurb is usually after the story, as an epilogue, and this time it wasn't, I guess?

And yeah, no matter how holy or angelical, if you can't be gay without anyone being bothered then that place isn't heaven.

WHAT THIS IS SO GOOD
WHAAAAT

It's like... It feels kind of middle school edgy in a way, with the angel aesthetics, the black vs white color scheme... feels kinda emo, feels kinda ridiculous and overly serious, but I love it.

I laughed out loud at the translation note about Japanese yen. Who...? Why.....? But heck yeah, I'm all for learning the value of foreign currency. Overthrow Americentrism!

Overall: this was cute and bittersweet, and I really liked the commentary on homophobia. Makes a lot of sense in a Christian cultural context (unfortunately). This could work well in a longer form too, but I can appreciate it as a one-shot. Going straight onto my favorites list.

It could work in a Buddhist context too as she could face pressure to reincarnate into someone "normal"

Would come in handy when you wake up having to pee in the middle of the night. She's a keeper!

The scanlator of Hime-chan is a Needy Woman did this too, except with Norwegian krone.

Hmmm... If I ever draw a one-shot (once executive dysfunction stops beating my ass), I will add a note like this to it.
"*65000 yen is [insert conversion here] Polish zlotys."

The title that immediately comes to mind when I see Angel and Smoking in the tags.

If Angel was expelled because she falls for another angel who happens to have the same gender as her...
Wait, that doesn't make any sense.
Shouldn't angels genderless..?
But if I'm Haruka, I wanted to help Angel to find her own place. Or that, if there's anything I could do so Angel San can go back to wherever Angel san belongs to..
Angel san, what should I do to send you back to where you are?

I think an angel's gender can be whatever the author wants it to be, in this case she's a woman. The creator of a story doesn't have to follow any specific example when it comes to fiction, especially when it comes to fictional beings.

Also I believe the point is that Angel found her own slice of heaven, and she doesn't want to be anywhere else. She doesn't want to go back to a place of prejudice and hate. She found a place where she's loved, so there's no need to worry about the "how to" of sending her back.
