Okay, this was painfully adorable.

I hope the sister takes a liking to her Friend. Also the art style reminds me a little of Puella Magi Madoka Magica.

Because the mangaka for Binetsu Kuukan is the character designer for PMMM (as well as Hidamari Sketch).

I'm kinda expecting Ikuno to go nuts and time travel back a few dozen times to prevent the impending sis-con ending. (but probably not, since this isn't written by Urobuchi)

Azunyan is a beaver dam

I think what makes me love Yohane's art so much is how she draw expressions. Everyone is so expressive, so much so, that she could probably get away with a textless story.

Well thats new. Usually, in most other vampire fictions, vampire's feeding on each other is a huge no-no, often being the equivalent to drinking poison or something.

They're more akin to Anne Rice/White Wolf's vampires, where vampiric blood is usually either treated as the ultimate aphrodisiac or a way to strengthen oneself (if you drink a vampire's blood who's closer to Cain in generation).

Q: Sumika went to college to study sports medicine. What did Ushio study in college?

Possibly literature. I could see her becoming an editor or a food writer.

I still absolutely love this manga. I love the weirdness, the sweetness, everything.

Thanks, I think we're all going to need it after this one.

and now I have diabetes....

Aaaand I have a new favorite yaoi manga.

I really love the reversal in who's the trap. Usually it's the smaller and more overtly feminine one, having it be the tough and more overtly masculine one is a nice twist.

Science babies remains best tag.

So much this.

makes an unholy noise

I need more MokoKein bebes in my life

Kinda reminds me of Asaki and Tsuno from Amagakure Gido's Train stories.

Yohane likes extremes, I think. Her thin characters are quite thin, and her heavier characters (Reimu for instance) tend to get pretty heavy. Marisa seems to be one of the exceptions.

But like I said, in this one I don't mind the thinness on Chen as it makes her look more animal I think.

So is confirmed that Yohane is a woman?

I'm pretty sure I've read this story before, Danbooru maybe?

I seriously doubt Yohane is a woman, considering all of the futanari he used to do...

Fun bit of trivia. I'm a woman, and draw futanari, and know quite a few women who do as well.

(Case in point; the panda girl that is my user icon is futanari)

So lovely. I strangely kind of fell in love with the writing style, with the "she smiled... and said that" and "So I said that" stuff, it created a sweet little rhythm.

God I love Amagakure's art so much. Her stories have a very sweet feel and her characters are so lovely.

I-I think I've figured it out!
Kurogumi is an assassin matchmaking service!

Best idea....ever.

Oh my god, the guy in Chapter 0.1 is has a dead face hugger (from the movie Alien) on his kitchen counter, was he planning on eating it?

Yohane's bodies do tend to be a bit thin, but this seems to be a bit extreme, and her art seems kinda sloppy/rushed in this one.

With that aside, the story is pretty cute, I like Chen thing charge.

@Dark_Tzizimine - I believe Yohane is a woman.

So... This is what Shirow's been doing instead of Appleseed 5.

I hate to admit, kinda feels like it's going to be fun.

@flips: The only "canon" pairs we see in the anime (as well as the manga, tho the manga tends to turn up the subtext to on 11 with other pairs), are the main characters Haru and Tokaku, and the pair you mentioned; Chitaru and Hitsugi.

@kickap00 - OMG that's so mean... hilarious... but mean. =D

Guys, I think you can calm down about the boob grab. To me, it looks pretty obvious that it was completely accidental. He didn't continue or do anything he shouldn't have. To view Uozumi as some sort of bad guy because he touched a certain part of Sakura's chest by accident is ridiculous. C'mon, we were all that awkward in high school.

And guys, keep in mind that our progressive views on sexuality and gender here at Dynasty Scans are not those of the mainstream. For Japan, that is especially true. In fact, I would wager that the view Uozumi expresses toward transsexuals is the prevailing one in Japan.

Not really, in Japan you can easily change your gender on your birth record. Here, most states won't allow trans* people to change their birth certificates, and they make it extremely difficult here in the states for trans* people to even begin HRT or gender correction surgery.

And the linked article is from 2006, Japan has gotten more progressive since then, electing openly TG politicians, there here in the US the SCotUS is making it easier to discriminate against transgender people.

Wait... did I just see a love triangle resolve itself into polyamory, by the girl who completely and totally seemed (on the outside) to be the kid of the group?

With that confusion out of the way, I love Amagakure's ability to convey emotion in her art, the smiles, the pouts, the crying, all feel so sincere.
