Maybe the Big twist is gonna be Tae don't believing the kid, but as she tries to leave as a last resort the kid points out how weird their relationship is and how troublesome would be for Tae and mai if someone were to find out, maybe some blackmail or emocional manipulation you know that good ol' stuff manga pulls when conflict is needed

Middle panel.

it doesn´t make sense to take that panel literally, that´d imply that she did nothing the first month (wich she clearly did) and then sudenly drop 5kg the next, it probably refers to the period of time since she started dieting wich is almost two months (give or take one week or two that ritsu diet by herself)

That's 8kg below the average japanese woman, and the average japanese woman is not even remotely overweight.

she´s not an average women, aside from two of her friends from college every other character is considerably taller than her

The only thing I said about the 40kg part was that it's disgusting that it's the lower end of a weight-class goal when it objectively can't be healthy for a person who's not legally a dwarf to reach it in the first place. Its inclusion implies it could ever be a good thing to reach it, which it isn't unless you're part of an extreme minority who would need to use a different scale in the first place.

again given the characters reaction to the 49.8 mark (wich is pretty much still 50) 40 was never supose to be the lower end it was probably 49 all along

If anyone "just saw the number 40 and decided to hate the context" here, it's you about my post.

you´re literally repeting yourself, you keep bringing 40, this panel https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/take_responsibility_for_my_stomach_ch10#3 and "average women" as points of contempt, wich without contex yes they are outrageous. I just pointed out that no 40 most likely wasn´t the lower end it was probably 49, ritsu is not an average women she´s clearly on the shorter side and it´s probably not a literal month since the text states thas she´s been dieting for almost two it just funny that you claim that i´m the one taking things out of contex

If after all the context i just provide you keep thinking that she wants to weight exactly 40kg, that she´s 5´ 6´´, that she wants to lose 5-7 kilos in the span of 1 monh be my guest buddy whatever helps you sleep at night

on an urelated note: losing 5 kg in the span of 1 month is neither impossible nor crippling if you have a proper diet and excersice plan

yeah 40 kg probably wasn´t intendeed to be a a realistic goal, given the characters reaction to the scale it´s more likely that anything under 50 would suffice. Hell i think the only reason 50 wasn´t the main goal it cuz she wanted to brag about being in the 40ish range, the same way people that are 29 are technically still on their twenties

When I think about it more, the fact that she lost about 5kg in a month without seemingly doing any kind of "real" exercise slightly worries me that she may in fact be eating too little to compensate. It's of course possible that she lost the weight healthily, but I wouldn't recommend real people try to mimic her regiment expecting similar results.

what are you even talking about, in the fist chapter is stated that she wanted to lose 7 kg in 3 months wich as far as im concerned is a reasonable goal. In chapter 10 is stated that she has 1 montth left wich means she lost 5 kg aprox in 2 months and needed to lose 3 more in 1 wich seems consistent with the inital plan wich again seem pretty reasonable

The fact that the average japanese woman's weight is 57kg really puts into perspective how misguided I think her goal of getting below 49kg is.

again the goal was probably to get below 50 even if it was by a pound

She doesn't seem to be smaller than anyone else in particular,and 8kg below the average person is definitely a level of difference that needs particular circumstances to be warranted, such as being a long-distance runner's or having an otherwise very active lifestyle.

but she clearly is tho, not by a lot but she seems to be shorter than everyone else , if we asume that she´s 5´ 1´´ 49 kg while still low for someone with ritsu constitution is not crippling

The more I analyze the details of this manga, the more I begin to question if the author of this even knows what being overweight means. Almost every part of it is screaming "tehe toxic japanese weight culture" to me, from perfectly healthy people being "overweight" to weight goals being cripplingly underweight to dramatic weight losses being considered "unsuccessful and below expectations."

while i agree that most of this seems to be more about vanity than health, the manga clearly is taking a somewhat healthy aproach and warns you about the dangers of not eating. The tact that you had something as important as the period of time wrong makes me think you just read the first chapter saw the number 40 and decided to hate it no matter what

This mentality is really staring to annoy me on this site. You say that as if there are poly endings everywhere. There are 1000 mono endings for every 1 poly one and that's probably being generous. Even manga that tease it, like If You Could See Love, usually end up going the mono route and you people act like things are going poly all the time. Can you even name any recent manga that had it?

Very few mangas had ended up in poly recently but god damn, there's a group of people that will post in almost every manga that poly would be a better ending, that the author was afraid, that they somehow know more about the characters and plot that the author itself or something along those lines

They're literally the "can he beat Goku" squad of the Yuri comunnity, can you really blame people that are starting to get annoyed at people bringing the same topic over and over again.

The series' name is slightly puzzling. "Be careful onee-san" can only be a dialogue line from Mai, something Mai is telling Tae. But what is it about? What does Mai need to tell Tae she has to be careful about?

The police, the FBI, angry twitter users idk there's a lot crazy people out there

You're half right. It is an inevitability to get sore muscles, since the microruptures of the muscle fibers that make you feel sore are promote muscle growth. But you definitely shouldn't tough it out and train through it. Rest days are important, your muscles need time to regenerate and grow. Otherwise you'll just hurt yourself.

Yeah ofc resting and knowing your limits is important, training 7 daya a week at full itensity is a big no. What i was triying to say is that if you train with the idea of avoiding pain, you 're probably not gonna improve nor lose weight in a meanigfull way

don´t quote me on this, but i´m pretty sure that the pain and sore muscles are a given when you train and you gotta suck it up, keep training with the same intensity until you get used to it and then you increase the intensity again. Maybe i´m all wrong , that´s how i used to train

I'm also so sad we didn't even get more Tsubaki / Nekozaki moments. Chapter 13 in the OG was so unique and fulfilling, and, like, emotional kabedon is justice.

now tha you mention it tsubaki feels oddly disconected not only to nekozaki but to the uchoten club, like they barely talk to each other. In the OG it felt like she begrudgingly became friends wtih them after spending time together, now it feels like her character arc only revolves around ms shiho

In general characters feel odly distant , they don´t really hang as a group anymore and barely talk to each other in an open and honest way.

Yeah, I figured we'd agree again...

it always makes me happy to see another arata iri enthusiast

Still, I'm happy for her! I'm glad she finally got her sex scene ending, and I'm glad that she seems happy with her results. I also liked this a lot, lol.

Yes, this panel is fricking gold, pure unadultered arata iri

i´m really happy that arata iri was finally able to finish a manga, her art and panel lay out improve a lot and the manga had some great moments but i really feel like it was such a missed oportunity, with some minor changes uchoten had the potential to be as good as school zone . I really dont get why they decided to go on a completly different direction

^Yeah "famitsu ayumu" as i like to call her is ayumu but cynical, brash, short tempered and with a really meta sensei of humor. Honestly she's my favorite character of the whole franchise and the closest love live has ever been to giving a character an actual personality.
It really saddens me that they dropped the concept

The funny thing is, mei already went through the whole "learning to be a good girlfriend" arc in citrus heck even if the conclusion wasn't the best it was a solid arc nonetheless
And after watching mei steping out of her comfort zone triying to be yuzu s ideal partner in citrus, is such a let down watching yuzu spending her birthday by herself despite mei being in the same room, the story is going circles and now is detracting from the main plot

When is the arc about the background characters from the Nina & Sara-school-trip sequence?

Now that you mention it, what happened to Sara and Nina? Did they ended up together?
Correct me if i'm wrong but i have a vague memory of Nina confessing to Sara, leaving the answer in the air and then it was never mention again

Lets see, a manga where some otherworldly baddies show up to threaten the earth. And the only weapons we have to save humanity with, for some inexplicable reason, can only be wielded by highschool girls. I don't why but I feel like I've seen this plot before.

Side note: The baddies are called huge. Come on now, it feels like Tsukinami Kousuka isn't even trying, with that one.

must be your imagination, there´s no way such a bold premise has been done before

maybe im being too pesimistic but i feel like there´s still room for staling or even backtracking, i feel like hino is still oblivious to koguma s feelings and let´s not forget that hino consistenly disguises her true feelings as jokes. and despite her teases and bold claims she keeps kogu at arms lenght
in my opinion if something is going to happen kogu needs to be the one doing it and i don´t see it happening anytime soon
