People defended it as a joke last time so I knew that's what I'd wake up to, and for me just as it wasn't funny the first time it's not funny the second time either. In my opinion it's a really strange conclusion for Aya to jump to joke or not, and I really hope this won't become a running bit where we see it a 3rd and even 5th time. That's my opinion and if people find it funny or are indifferent about it that's also fair, for me it's going to annoy me every time it happens though lol

Aya, honey, I love you but you really need to walk me through your thought process, because I have no idea how you'd arrive to this conclusion.

It's definitely valid, not finding the joke funny; it's not all that funny to me either. I just don't think there's much need to look into those joke lines more deeply as of yet. It's the same anywhere else the same joke has popped up in other romance manga and wasn't implying some issue with those relationships. If something changes in future chapters, then maybe but right now it just seems innocuous and comedic. Maybe the joke doesn't read well across cultures. As Appstore said in their comment, it's definitely one I've seen in a few manga with perfectly healthy relationships; so the authors are definitely pulling it from somewhere.

I'm not looking at it deeply or even expecting it to be deeper than a passing punchline, I just don't like it and don't want it to be a running bit one way or another.

Aya, your brain works weird...

i'm not reading whatever happened up there dear lord ^^, but i wanted to say aya thinking she was cheating might be authors experience bleeding in lol. it doesn't make sense at all in context but stepping back and looking at my own experience as a lesbian adult... yeah. arai sumiko sensei, may you heal from whoever hurt you or your loved ones lol

I don't mean you specifically. That part was talking about some of the other comments before and that we continue to see now that are reading more into it and the author. I did say I had no problem with your comment or what you were saying and partially agreed with you, at the beginning of my response.

That makes sense, I didn't mean to come across as rude only that I wasn't 100% sure so I wanted to clarify on my end in regard to how deeply I'm looking at the cheating aspect.

"My hot girlfriend is out without me, clearly she's getting hit on by other people, some of whom must pique her curiosity...and she's probably reciprocating and that's why she's out even later now"

The “my partner is so cute/suddenly lovey dovey, therefore could be cheating” is certainly a stock joke, and in this circumstance there’s the couple dynamic that when the two of them first met Mitsuki had zero on-panel friends, and Aya tended to stress as Mitsuki became more popular. Now they both have separate friend groups, so there are even more complications in that area.

And of course we know that Aya tends to lose her shit when under academic pressure as well.

Yeah no worries.

Aya, honey, I love you but you really need to walk me through your thought process, because I have no idea how you'd arrive to this conclusion.

There is actually a real phenomena where when someone cheats, they will suddenly begin treating their partner with much greater affection than they normally would in order to ease their guilt or to throw off suspicion. This isn't all cases, of course, but it's not hard to see how Aya's mind might have gone there if she has heard warnings like this in the past

ngl i hope it's a joke that we're not meant to take seriously. if not, maybe there's an unfortunate probability of us turning away from green and towards blue

I hope they never talk about this and drag the artificial drama for 80+ chapters of nothing-burgers.

This series doesn’t ever do any one thing for 80+ chapters, so we’re probably safe there.

Now that I think about it... Have we read anything about Aya's father?

yeah this series has basically lost me at this point

Aya is VERY insecure, I think. Hopefully won't blow up later...

Zzzz... This doesn't even make sense anymore.

She's stuck in a pretty idol group, pretty much.

Zzzz... This doesn't even make sense anymore.

Can't make everyone happy. If you're not, just stop reading and consider it ended at graduation.

Some would have liked it ends at graduation, "and they lived happily ever after"

Others wanted it to continue "forever". The author is currently writing for these ones.

For it to continue, it needs some tension/drama/plot.Author made some choices. If you don't like them, drop it.

I imagine Aya is going to help her break free, at least hopefully

Daymmmm find a girl who will take risk to repeat a year just to see her bae perform.TvT
