World hard and cold
Ghost soft and... cold

Why is she falling at the end? Is it 'cause she's fallen for her?

Thanks for the chapter!

This makes me want pudding and a round doggy

not into yuri btw

Since it’s not in the same place in the manga, here’s the specific short, self contained except from the LNs where the red person first really appears. This is the first text in LN3 case file 9 Yamanoke Presence - so seven case files before where we are now.

Thanks for sharing! I guess the story works without having this mentioned as well, though it's too bad we missed the bit about her thinking it was her mom.

And you make a good point in that it might not only be this babble. I'll reread the army rescue chapter next and share my thoughts, Toriko and Sorawo do make a call from the Otherside in there.

Haha totally can't relat-- fuck it's February already?...

The 3 3 3 3 extra was cute though

No seggs?! For one week?!?

Wait, is that tree about to fall over them? They might be playing a little too hard

something something haha straight play

Cool action scenes!

Look at the title: straight.
Look inside: gay.

Truly an appalling display of false advertisement

Ugh.

Okay, that's a good ending, but now I demand 20 chapters of them being roommates and Yuzu topping to compensate for the neutron star denseness we've been treated to, particularly ch23 and ch24.

It got bad enough to the point that Minami's friends thought she was going to off herself that one time when she went to clean up the roof...

I think Mai somehow knows Asumi is looking for her and wants her to succeed, though I'm not sure about that.

She does know, based on earlier chapters. She's been waiting mostly by choice at this point.

Yeah, she was straight-up thinking "doesn't look like Asumi made a reservation with me again, huh"... together with Serina before Asumi and Senpai (and Mai) went on that trip

Re-reading a few bits rq bc I miss the sweetheart that is Nanao-chan

Stated out in the open, right after she asked if Asumi and Ouka were FWB (which, mind you, was a most reasonable assumption). And to think we were debating it back then...

EDIT: OH GOD I FORGOT THE CONFESSION WAS RIGHT AFTER. NANAO WHY ARE YOU SO CUTE

THEY'RE FINALLY MEETING!... which is cool and is going to be cute and wholesome and I really hope it actually happens or I'm going to be really bummed out, but I also really don't want this to end... Asumi didn't even do anything with Senpai... we didn't get to see much of Nanao getting all possessive...

^ Gotcha, didn't catch that on my first read either. Going to reread Pandora's Box next, then (not before I reread Toriko telling Sorawo her boobs are cute, though).

As for rereading - isn't this stuff happening right now?

So, that day was red, she cut something off (maybe this is Toriko shooting the Sorawo-faced goat?), the horned faces came flowing (definitely happening right now)... Sorawo would die, there would be a trial, it's unforgivable as a person, and because she can't forgive it, Sorawo would burn down, and when only her bones are left, she would come to the otherside...

The order of these is really hard to pin down. Does that mean Sorawo is dead right now, and what's happening is the trial? Then what comes next is everything burning down, like the red person originally told Sorawo to do back then (the bit with the kerosene).

Oh, okay, so that's why she went back home at all - because she met "something" in the hotel, and that "something" took the cultists as sacrifices, I assume. So when she went back, the house was empty.

Interesting to know she's had direct supernatural encounters even before the story. So, is the red person this "something" she meets? I was confused as to how to interpret this chapter, but the comments seem to be implying so.

My favorite subtle thing about this story is the Otherside appearing whenever Sorawo starts to get intense feelings.

Very well observed, I wouldn't have noticed that by myself at all. This work makes me appreciate being able to read alongside others.

Still, it makes me sad. Doesn't this mean that it's not just Sorawo's mentality getting in the way of our yuri, it's the whole Otherside itself? Sheesh, can't two girls get frisky in peace?

I would normally be talking about lethal damage too, but I can't help but read the chapter title as "Flower of the North Star" and it's overriding everything else

Damn you intrusive thoughts, how dare you interfere with my yuri!

I think this did better without the introduction of a fourth character. I'm more invested in the bloody toxic love triangle.

Still, liking this so far.

Was forced to reread since I got a rec for it, woe is me.

Seriously, this is so, so good. The sweet heartache I get from their interactions is too addictive.

Gyarus truly are kind to otakus

@dandalyn thanks for the rec!

It's back!!! Aggressively gay as usual, really hoping we get to see more!

Also shout-outs to trembly turtleys

Dear Madoka this chapter was such an emotional rollercoaster. I went "YES!" to "NOOOOOOO YOU USELESS LESBIANSSSSS" to "YESS YESSSS YESSSSS" to "Ah yes, I see Oomori-kun is a fine man of culture." so fast

EDIT: forgot to make fun of the title. Also y'all go reread so you can pick the color pages up. With the added context they might as well be an extra chapter by themselves

Nagi and Asako, alone in the classroom, K-I-S-S-I-N-G!

^ The vice-prez's definitely in on it, yeah. Asako had the cutest smile ever when saying she got it as a present too.
