we must address the yaoi hand on page 23 immediately

Dare I ask what a yaoi hand is...?

Enjoy

Holy crap, I'm in stitches. Some of these are incredible.

This trend of yuri coming in from different countries is really encouraging. It feels like a new dawn is breaking.

Kudos to the translators! Some kinda harsh comments here, but it's a good first effort. I look forward to seeing more.

That teacher was actually pretty horrible. Like seriously? Mistreats the child the entire year (even says she's not good enough to be a princess, like I get it was an accident, but SERIOUSLY!? You said that TO A LITTLE GIRL!?) and then manages to completely forget she's leaving and make her feel horrible...Like when the narrator was was talking about when the teacher said she really, really liked her, that "she may have even meant the opposite." Yeah, I agree. I think your teacher actually kinda hated you lol.
Damn tho...such a good little girl...the world needs more children like this one...

I don't think "meant the opposite" was the main character saying that the teacher hated her. Rather, it's just that the main character realized that the teacher's tears and sadness were more a love for herself than a love for her students. For the teacher, her heart has always been with her own image and responsibility as a teacher. She would unknowingly break the dreams of her student just so that she could have an easier time teaching. She never had a place in her heart for the main character. The teacher's sadness was really from betraying herself, and not because she actually cared.

How the main character reacted was really admirable though. Love produces nice things.

This is a great interpretation, I agree.

How old is the narrator, I wonder? She's awfully insightful - moreso than I would be, I think.

I hope this doesn't get licenced too... I won't be able to buy it in my country, and I can't order anything from other countries either x__x (fuck my life D:)

It's not that unlikely, you may as well download the chapters from here while you've got the chance.

Finally got around to reading this, I think the first time I've read a yuri series after putting off picking it up until it was finished. Very enjoyable, lots of funny moments, good dynamic between the two, & they were both pretty likeable. It was maybe a bit too slapstick, but the final confession bits at the end were pretty heartfelt.

If there was one thing missing, I'd say it was a couple other interesting characters. There's no Tamamin or Sugi in this, though Kanbe-San is pretty cool.

Pages 50-51 are awesome. Maki's entranced gaze is, well, entrancing. Those panels are just dripping with sexual tension, it's delicious.

Pretty good, though I don't think I'd of enjoyed it as much without the knowledge of there being a follow-up

Agreed, I'm excited for the sequel, this was cute but it's not enough to leave off here.

I can't believe how many negative reviews this has gotten. I strongly disagree with those who say that Mira should 'stick with porn', and for me this is just further proof of that. I love this story.

Hadn't read this before, I really like it. Kiyoka is basically a superhero in my eyes, and Chiaki is adorable.

The best detail in this story is Chiaki's completely supportive friend.

I agree, between Kiyoka and her support, this was pretty heartwarming despite the end to Kiyoka's relationship.

i'm not sure.. but isn't "Past Heaven" the sequel of this? coz same characters and all :3

Agreed basically, however their characters become somewhat different.
(Or rather I'd consider them two separate oneshots with coincidentally similar character names and designs, since their personalities changed so much.)

I don't agree at all, the characters seem the same to me. Ayumu is still gregarious but it's revealed it's all just a front. Yuu is very confused about all these new things she's feeling & experiencing, but she's trying to come to terms with how close she feels to Ayumu all of a sudden. I don't think either is acting out of character, they're just showing sides they didn't show in the first chapter.

Anyway, I came here to mention how awesome I think the grandpa is. That guy rocks.

There are a good two or three more chapters here to this story. Kirino's gayngst & Yoshizawa's naivete, along with simply seeing them together more, are golden material for more. Great one-shot, anyhow.

I really liked this. Also, this line: "I want you to need me so much that you can't bear to be without me.". I'll be damned if that doesn't tug at the heartstrings.

So Niki got over finding her dad by finding him, and then fucking him? Someone explain to me how that's not weird. I like this manga, but that little detail is insurmountable to me - it's just too bizarre.

I love this story. Chihiro is absolutely adorable, & the lewdness is perfect. Great combination of sexy & cute, & even a bit romantic.

I love Momono Moto. Funny, Hidden in Dusk, Kimi Koi Limit, & now this all involve stalking/peeping.

"For this desire I concluded on after much thought...this life of mine, I'll exchange it!"

Makes me want to watch Madoka: Old English Edition

Hahahaha. I didn't think about how unusual that phrasing was before.

Aww, this one is great. Tsumari's determination to confess is pretty feelsy, and then such a satisfying conclusion.

Hiroki is a terrible friend and she doesn't deserve Mana's affection

What, why? Because she's oblivious to Mana's feelings? That's Mana's fault. You can blame Hiroki for being stupid or imperceptive, but that's not really up to her.

I really liked this up until the ending, and then it just seemed like a waste. Mana is great, though. I love seeing arrogant characters falling in love. The way they change how they act around that person is always charming.

Too bad really, Chako was too lovable to only get two chapters of content.

For sure. Chako is a lovable rascal. You really don't see characters like her at all in yuri manga. I like the main two just fine, but Chako absolutely made this series. Shame to see it go.

This translation is a little hard to follow at times... damned if the story isn't hot, though.

Pg. 24: "We can't do this so suddenly... I like you."
Hahahaha. Such dialogue.
I thought it was cute, if a bit shallow.

This has always been one of my favorites. The art's a little shaky, but it's mostly fine. I love the dry sense of humor. I love the dignity Sensei carries on with. I absolutely adore the confession, one of my favorites in yuri. I love how completely Hayaka is won over by Sensei's feelings. I love the ending. Everything about this one-shot is wonderful. I've always wished there was more from this author.
