I see it a lot that manga authors tend to romanticize jealousy and possessiveness. IRL though, you gotta let your partner have friends. Cutting someone off from social interaction and forcing them to rely on only a single person for all their emotional needs is a recipe for stress and a troubled relationship.

Glad they at least sidestepped it here.

Insecurity is a big problem around the world unfortunately. Is my partner cheating on me?

Maybe they just went to get tea with a work friend lol

"romanticize" is such a meaningless word lol. They just think something different from you and it reflects in their work, but that word tries to turn "I disagree" into "they're actually doing something harmful". They're not "romanticizing" jealousy, they think jealousy is an important part of romance. A lot of people do, they see it as a sign of passion and devotion. It's just a different perspective than yours.

Or "romanticize" can mean giving an object or phenomenon romantic connotations that aren't inherently there. Flowers are not inherently romantic, but we romanticize them.

To say that romantic jealousy is not "inherently" romantic is entirely a subjective opinion that, once again, many people just see differently. You're basically trying to argue that Hime's version of romance is fundamentally different than what's "inherent" to romance, and I'd argue that her feelings are different due to intensity rather than fundamentally "wrong" somehow. She's got very normal feelings that most people have, just turned up to 11 by her anxiety.

I'm not saying that Hime's version of romance is fundamentally different than what's inherent to romance; I'm saying that NOTHING is inherent to romance, that romance is not a universal or uniform experience, that it's impossible to define, and that attempting to prescribe what is correct or normal in romance is harmful. So I believe that I am agreeing with you rather than disagreeing. Some people consider small amounts of jealousy and possessiveness to be problematic, and some people are upset when there is no jealousy or possessiveness in a relationship. Not everyone has the same standards, which does make relationships hard for Hime (and the rest of us).

Heian Hime-chan is cute

Aah I love this series, thanks for bringing back more of it.

We're not asking for an epic Beowulf, or the Canterbury Tales! Just send an emoji! Preferably one that's easily understood! We have to have proof of life! DON'T LEAVE US ON READ!!!!!!!!!

I have a feeling Yoru is going to 1) come out as a trans man and they are going to break up or 2) come out as ace and they are going to break up lol

I'm sorry, but it's just that Yoru does not seem upset by Hime-chan's unhealthy needs, rather she seems sad for being ‘unable’ to respond with the same intensity as Hime-chan

I have a feeling Yoru is going to 1) come out as a trans man and they are going to break up or 2) come out as ace and they are going to break up lol

Uh... How do you think that?? Because there's nothing in this manga that indicates either of these.

And I love Hime-chan and her dramas lol.

Hime has a very anxious attachment style with Yoru (and probably with other people), while Yoru seems more on the avoidant side, though clearly not as bad as Hime. That's not a very promising combo in RL relationships, but great fuel for fictional drama...

what avoidant are you talking about? we barely got any side of Yoru and we got the delusional side of Hime >.> now way you can build a psychological profile with the little things we got

Yeah Yoru seems very easy-going to me. I read this manga as basically a light-hearted comedy making fun of the angst and anxiety many of us feel even when it is not warranted at all.

Not warranted? SHE LEFT HER ON READ!!!!!!!! Call the freaking National Guard!

But ... isn't that the purpose of the read indicator?

I get Hime a lot, and I don't even have a gf...... I don't know if that makes it better or worse.

They think because Yoru is drawn with a guyish appearance they can't possibly be intended to be an actual girl. It's just shallow appearance standards and gender conformity bullshit.

Or they're trolling. One or the other.

I hope it's just trolling, because my username isn't just for show, I will defend the tomboys and butches of all yuris...

I explained it in the comment above yours! No need to take it seriously because it’s a “Wouldn't it be fun if” type of comment
It's just that those are the only two options I can think about why Yoru feels "incapable" to reciprocate Hime's affection

Sorry, I didn't see it ^^

Respond to the same intensity doesn't mean what you said before, maybe they aren't compatible or something. Well, there are cases that it is the reason, but I think Hime-chan is just really intense and Yoru isn't. At least that's what I think.
