So the sudden lack of detail in this development kind of bummed me out.

I thought so too initially, but if you look at Eli and Ian's talk in ch 290, a lot of this is foreshadowed. It's Eli's first meeting with Ian, but she knows Ed already and Ian implies Eli's visited Japan before.

Wait...when did Elisha get screamed at by Honokas sis?

Kaoru didn't yell at her, but she wasn't very friendly. They talk in 288 and 290.

There were plenty of times before where I downright didn't like Kaoru at all as a character, but even I have always had to admit that she genuinely cares a whole lot about her sister and would go through a wall for her. Those chapters where she got to see Honoka glow and finally find her place in the world have been quite moving.

honoka and elisha are my favorite pairing, so I'm always happy when they get a new chapter. I really hope eli ends up staying... ;___; but long distance gfs would be cute too, reminds me of that one doujin where a girl takes a vacation and ends up dating a girl who doesn't speak the same language as her.

Are you thinking of Will These Words Reach You by C2=Galore? Really liked that one and the two sequels.

Probably that, but it's funny because Mira's series "The Sea, You, and the Sun" could also kind of fit that description, even though those are two different vibes. Both good.

Where's Mini-Chapter 100?

Grandma knows :)

Grandma ships it

Holy shit, things are happening again!

Keep being freaky, Nao!

Oh yeah, we got our 2nd chapter with Mari and Yuu for this year.

Can’t wait for the next one in 2026 -_-

and I'm definitely gonna read that one too!

elisha and honoka are one of my fave pairings, hope they can work it out

There we go! Happy Mini-Chapter 100, everybody! And Happy 15th Anniversary, Vrgins' Empire!

Oh no, she´s HOT AF

If Nao were to see short haired Onibi I think she'd have a meltdown

My thoughts exactly

oh my god she really said "i have to be butch-er to win this"

Ahhhh Onibii

Oh no, she´s HOT AF

Came to post this exact comment... minus the AF. Glad to see we're all on the same page.

Oh god why

Oh no hermano :'(
Why did she cut it?!?!?!
It remind me that scene from Adventure Time when Finn cut his hair and then he asks Bmo how he looks and he says "como el diablo" jajaja

She looks great with the new haircut.

Hm, her old hairstyle was so cute and fluffy. But sacrifices to the manga gods had to be made.

ok as a curl-haver myself yeah i am gonna miss them but man she is hot af now

NO NO NO NO NO. I’m coming out of the woods for this. Onibi’s hair was honest to god one of my favorite things ever. The chapter where she lets it out of her ponytail is so viscerally cool to me. My world is shifting. Something vital has changed. ARGHHHHHHHHH. My psyche is being challenged. I’ll get used to it
