This ended up as a surprisingly nice chapter. ^_^

This could’ve been a cute story about Riko having a crush on the big sister but having to win the trust and friendship of the little sister before that can happen and it’d be super wholesome but no Riko has to be a pedophile that’s skeeving on her friends own sister without her knowledge and it just creates this underlying stomach churning feeling you can’t help bud have while reading.

Like the recent chapter is really cute but I can’t not think of how Riko has romantic feelings for this literal child the entire time. It’s all played for fun light hearted fluff and not the deeply disturbing mental illness it is so I can’t get into it, that gross ass moment of Riko oggling the child’s feet in chapter 2 should be horrifying but it’s just treated as normal and kinda silly. I know I hear the “why read this if you don’t like it” replies coming my way but I just wanted to get it out there

HOW is she in high school.. is what I would say but coming up with questions for someone younger is hard… and off the top of the dome? And I’m sure I’ve spilled dessert and desert wrong before… the spelling is so similar…

That last page looks ominous AF. This is gonna be a hard read if this takes a tragic turn

On the spelling of Desert/Dessert, I had a tabletop RPG character once who ran a restaurant I called "The Dessert Oasis".

Meh, it your freedom of speech and feel free to let out your comment if it makes you feel better...as long your not being a fking stupid tw*tter virtue signaler and trying to shame other people for reading this and calling them the p-words then everything is good.

People have different tolerant level of what they can handle, in high school had a acquaintance that enjoy freaking people out by showing cartoonish gore picture to his friends, some were just annoyed and shrugged while other got freak out which he enjoy.

Yeah...Riko knows what she is feeling is wrong and she definitely need to see a therapist for help if she can't overcome her so-called trauma and obsession that came as a result from never confessing to her former crush in 3rd grade. Hopefully Riko successfully get over it because if she doesn't then she is going to ruin her life.

You be surprised at how many people can easily go onto highschool with bad grades you know...it's also depends on the school and plus school don't want to fail people and have bad reputation, it would look bad....has long as you can get a D+ to C- in at least all your grades then I think most school let you pass and graduate...won't look very good on your university or college application though (plus no scholarship=free money to pay for courses).

Though we all already know Riko is not the smartest or brightest tool in the shed from all the previous chapters...Though I guess Aika is a very smart and talented for her age (Not high school level but obvious smarter then most of her classmate...)

The slight subtle shading and darkening at the bottom page can cause some readers tension and suspense XD

Riko is also a child..

I don't entirely agree that it's played for fluff. Unlike most oneeloli manga, Riko is (a) well aware she's a pedophile, (b) dislikes this, and (c) is trying -- unsuccessfully and ambivalently, but still -- to overcome it. It's not a psychological horror or anything but it's not being framed as a-ok wholesome either. The tension of the manga comes precisely from Riko's rationality/superego being in conflict with her feelings/id. This tension is played more for comedy than drama, but it is there, and it's what I find most interesting about the manga (along with the prominence of Yuuka, who plays a much bigger role than typical "third wheel" characters which makes me wonder just what her place in the story will end up being). It would be a completely different manga if Riko were in love with Yuuka instead.
