wow, that's a long Christmas break.
Good on her. Hope you got some well deserved rest, Arai Sumiko

She's been slaving away at the volume 4 tankobon and bonus booklets. But hopefully she at least got some time off for New Years. She updates progress weekly over on her instagram. https://www.instagram.com/agu_knzm/

I’ve stopped reading this a long time ago.. I think at around 30? 40? 50 chapters? I don’t know.. it’s a few years. I don’t know the exact reason either it’s I was too adhd pilled or I decided to wait until it was done. Look how far it’s come now! im really happy the author has had so much success. 1 mil+ followers on twt, billboards, tons of merch .. It just makes me happy to see a Yuri be so successful. I took a little peek at the last chapter (and read a bit of spoilers..) Maybe I should pick this up again

Great timing. Love the look at their home and can't get enough of "behind the scenes" sneak peaks, especially ones that wholesome. The art never stops amazing me but sometimes I'm surprised all over again.

Very nice!

I really hope the scanlation team manages to get all four Moonlite booklets this time!

uehehehehe cuteee... Mitsuki used an excellent opportunity to ask the good ol' "what are we"

oh fuck guys their registration is expired

That living space art is really cute

Yay! Non-Sunday update! I've been jonesing.

“What about now” So she was jealous/being possessive! Good, jealousy is good.

Aside from people making it bigger that it was, it was also fun to see people denying that it was jealousy/possessiveness or saying it was a teenager learning new things, etc.
One side considered it a “red flag” or unwanted behavior and the other side completely denied it as an act of jealousy and just Mitsuki being unaware of what she was doing. The truth is, as much as people online like to deny it (because is not morally correct) many people find that possessiveness-assertiveness and jealousy attractive.
She was jealous and did the typical “she is mine” trope, and it was hot!

In many places, like my state, we do not require a front license plate. You can put anything you want in the front plate holder, including old vanity plates.

With the extra for the "are we dating" scene I feel like more drama will come from that, but ah well is what it is.

Also I love the extra of "girlfriend that wears lipstick vs girlfriend that doesn't makes hiding the kissing a little harder", that's really fun.

Volume 4 ends at the currently available "normal" chapter (152). Next arc is about to start, probably.

There's 4 (physical) exclusive 2026 moonlight magazines out there, for each Japanese retailer: Melonbooks, Gamers, Animate and Tsutoya. This is what took time to Sumiko to draw, in addition to this bonus.

When and if I get my hands on them, I'll surely translate them.

Finally some green yuri! I was going through withdrawal.

Also I love the extra of "girlfriend that wears lipstick vs girlfriend that doesn't makes hiding the kissing a little harder", that's really fun.

That's the secret: She does wear lipstick, it's just delayed application! :p

Holy crap, Mitsuki with the messy hair and smeared lipstick is DANGEROUS.

auugghhh, i love these little bits of their domestic life... if god wills it, it will be my turn soon

The return of Green, this chapter really left me wanting more...it felt like most of what happened was off screen, even more than usual. The concert crashed, she gave up the band we + her girlfriend don't know why, even giving up playing music all together, and it feels very rushed to me.

Is that a beetle?

Back when the class found Mitsuki's songwriting notebook, she just went and solved all her shit off-screen and we never found out what happened. We're not doing that again, right? This is just a setup chapter, right?

Yeah...I love this series but god sometimes it feels like it doesn't actually want to include the audience lol

i think it's all right, this manga's style is like that, how can you expect long pages of chapters of slice of life? it was never like that since the beginning. i dont love it but i support experimenting/unique styles.

Daymmm and here I thought they gonna talk about it and drama will be solved. Looks like it's gonna be a long ride, given the fact the mitsuki quit the band. T-T
Her bae Aya gonna do something to bring back the fire of passion inside mitsuki, though I hope author will include the audience when that moment comes.T-T

It happened again. Another major moment that had been built up for a while. Skipped. Happened off-screen. We're teleported into the future where everything is back to the default slice of life state and told what happened in a text dump recap.
Don't build up drama if you don't want to write drama.

This is exactly what made me lose interest in this series before. It's not great to dare come back to it and see this happening again.

There's plenty of manga that are slice of life with and without romance that have longer chapters that flesh out situations and characters more. Though yes the shorter chapters are the style of this manga, but that also doesn't give it a free pass when it comes to critique on pacing and things happening off screen.
