This manga is so awesome.

Indeed. The introspection aspect is so great. I really should read the novel, but it's a bit off putting that there are so many volumes.

I command you to read them. There might even be cake once you're done.

Im racking my brain for a term to describe Shimmura, that completely emotional detachment but not in a way that’s sociopathic, just melancholy, is it depression? Is she just very guarded and can’t show her emotions and would rather just “sync” her mood with whoever she happens to be with because that’s just a lot easier than being her own person with agency? I’m just very fascinated by this character. She’s human, she gets sad and can cry, but she doesn’t want to so she doesn’t.

Adachi is not a healthy person and is extremely codependent as a girlfriend but Shimura doesn’t even care and just goes with the flow because….well why not? So intriguing

GUYS WE NEED THE SUPERNATURAl TAG Yashiro is already confirme to be inhuman in the LN as she survived for centuries and now the manga has solid proof as well

For real I read the manga until around ch 40 first then binged the LN and I promise the LN is worth it the introspection goes insanely deep

I remember this being a pretty big turning point in the LNs for Shimamura and how she approaches her relationship with Adachi. Without spoiling too much, she becomes a lot more demonstrative and loving with her adorable puppy dog girlfriend as time goes on. We're definitely in for a treat and a fun ride from here :D

I am not sure I understand these characters, I used to like Adachi more before. But it is nonetheless interesting, I look forward to what is to come.

Very Shimamura.

Sancho... I have conceived an idea most ingenious

Its kinda interesting seeing what bits of internal narration make it from the LN to the manga, I guess its sort of telling that there's two pages of pure monologue.

Shimamura just seems to be more confident in taking adachi more seriously now and facing her problems directly, which is so sweet :D

"sanscro"

I never been so offended in my life

I like the art, but it's so slow. Will they ever kiss?

It's extreamly slow burn. Like about as slow as you can get without going backwards. Honestly it's kinda hard to read this sometimes because how stale and akward their relationship feels.

A lot of people hoped it would be more emotional when they started dating, but it's pretty much the same.

omg I relate to Adachi so much. I can't handle a relationship(friends or dating) with more than one person at a time. I want to put everything I have into that one person and I don't want to interact with anyone else. It's a very unfortunate situation to put that other person in though because most people have multiple friends or people they want to interact with. Idk the point of this post just ranting I guess. Anyways THIS MANGA IS TOO CUTE I LOVE IT SO MUCH

Managing the puppy. :D

Ah so cute. I can't get enough of these dorks. >//<

The way the hold their hands on the last page, so cute.

I love the fortune teller, she's my favorite side character.

Adachi is lucky to have such a great girlfriend. ^_^

rare flustered shimamura

Ok the girl in the backpack is like, a hallucination right?

This manga is so odd. The strange alien child adds nothing and frankly just detracts from the otherwise grounded story, meanwhile the MCs' relationship has very little chemistry and often feels actively unhealthy. It has its cute moments I guess, but to me it feels more like a story about a fairly realistic childhood relationship between two kids who are just trying to figure themselves out and which is bound to fizzle out in relatively short order, rather than about destined soulmates as the narrative claims. I haven't read the LN and maybe some character development will eventually change that impression, but it's going to take a lot to turn it around.

The main problem about yashiro the alien child is that you mostly see her in the LN intermissions and side stories where she just be doing whatever and she hangs around shimamura's sister and family for fun and sometimes says profound stuff. The manga adapts none of the intermissions or sometimes they end up as 1-2 page volume extras so yashiro feels really out of place in the manga version.

She really gets her time to shine in LN vol 99.9 and she genuinely becomes one of the best characters in the whole series in that volume. We still don't know if the manga will adapt 99.9 though.

Which is bound to fizzle out??? Apparently every young couple who faces any awkwardness is doomed now.
I like the “alien child” (whose name is Yashiro, you’d know if you payed attention to the story). You’re coming at this as if the manga has to prove something to you instead of reading it for fun. Room temperature take
