An enjoyable first chapter, always exciting to start a new series! Thanks for the translation!

It's certainly a Yuri manga. I'm actually not sure where it's going. First you get vibes of "loser introvert learns to be more extroverted and thus gains value ", then she falls nearly instantly, then there's a cousin crush, then there's an almost Bloom Into You like dynamic. Guess I'll read a few more chapters. Just to see what kind of manga this actually is.

I am intrigued by this and would like to subscribe to your newsletter!.

cute

isn’t this just the yuri version of “super attractive perfect girl ends up with antisocial loner whose sole redeeming quality is that they are somehow the first person to ever show basic kindness to the girl”

Anne of Green Gables mentioned!

fun chapter 1. i look forward to cheering on book bocchi and straight kita from this point onwards

Always a + in my mind since I absolutely LOVE that series (both the books and live action). This story has the potential to be good, we'll just have to wait and see.

art's super adorable, im loving the expressions

okay this looks interesting, and the art is cute

Feels like exactly the type of manga I'll enjoy. How long do you think it'll take for our MC to find out that the girl she fell in love with actually had a crush on her female best friend?

I tend to avoid School life series nowadays, but after Schrödinger's Girl, I decided to give this one a chance, found it rather refreshing, and decided to keep reading.

I don't know if the scanlator group reads comments here, but I noticed a few translation errors: In pages 16 and 19, Shouko should be saying Otobe-san, not Shouko-san (doesn't make sense for her to call herself). And in page 8, the guy should be calling Fujimi Sisters, not Fujikawa.

Love a good gloomy introvert x popular extrovert pair. Especially love it when it's not the "loser" girl who needs the most support. "Popular girl secretly feels suffocated by her idyllic school life and needs an escape" isn't fresh but it definitely feels less played out than "Loner comes out of her shell with help from popular girl and learns how to make friends."

@Cuetie Scans, some mixed up I found: on pages 15 & 18, Shouko was addressing "Otobe-san" as per the raw, but currently as of this comment, the translated text bubbles say "Shouko-san" i.e. her own name. now fixed

I was thinking "it would be an interesting starts if she was into her girl friend."

Girl is an expert at digging holes

High speed traumatic delusions, hahaha I can relate.

Great to see that just after Ono Rin's first one-shot was released here, their first full series is now on here too! :)

kinda, but the fact that the MC is just burning out actual literary references probably shows that she's rather book smart, just doesn't like being around people.

A super relatable mc. Count me in

This is real cute, I'm looking forward to more~ and yeah, Shouko is totally in love with her cousin.

These are the kind of stories where I just want the loner to go away and the FMC to just go after her cousin

It feels weird to me that yurihime is ony 20 years old. Sure there was yuri shimai before but to think that the modern form of the magazine, a juggernaut of the yuri genre, has only existed for 20 years is still really crazy.

Yeah you'd think it would be 50 years at least lol
