The over 5-months wait has been more than worth it already! These two chapters were a-maz-ing! Can't wait for more!

Gosh fuckin' darn it.

Y'know, since I remember liking the first two chapters, and since I forgot what happened in chapters 3 - 7, I used the upload of the new chapters as an excuse to re-read it all in one go, and boi was it worth it! And in chapter 13, when it comes to the Tsubaki and Hiyori going to that place at the oceanside scene, I went from the obligatory joking "Dafuq, pixelize those hands! There are minors on this site!" to the sweetness-induced "Just kiss already!" to the fanboyish and blushing "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~" in what felt like less than a minute. Gosh, it was so good!

Shamiko is so cute, I think what's most incredible about this manga is Momo not having a love rival

I agree and I also hope it stays that way.

There's a law that states there's a chance that, as soon as someone as much as thinks about wanting something to happen, they have jinxed into not-happening, often in the opposite happening. Source: happened to myself inumerable occasions.

I think the people being salty are just salty about finding out they didn't get hardcore porn on a site that is not a porn site. Good grief.

Re-reading this comment again, I want to state for the record that, sometime last year, I actually went to see the insane amounts of sex tag for the explicit purpose of checking if any chapter there is actually one with extremely lewd hand-holding. I was thoroughly disappointed and was left salty. So..., those people getting salty is kind of a payback!

Does the fact that both have holy forms have something to do with crackshipping them?
(And, before you ask how do I now, since I always said I don't play the game - I've visited the wiki on a few occasions, and both of them having holy forms happens to be one of the things I managed to remember)

Is this series qualified for the Wholesome tag?

Seems wholesome enough to warrant that tag to me.

Both of the currently translated entries are so effin' cute, omg.

Try Canada, other countries were racism isn't a problem (or you'll find it in the 0.5% of the population) are not very good right now (and others aren't very good ever)

Canada seems pretty good at the moment. Better than Antarctica at least.

The full lockdown was lifted today over here in Panama, I'm not worried about morons killing themselves, but if cases skyrocket we'll be back at square 1 and that affects me and every other sane person :/

I'm checking the Panama covid graphs and I'd say it's not entirely bad. Your country seems to be keeping fairly linear rates of contamination and death.

The reasonable course of action would be to lift restrictions only when the rates drop, such as is the case of Italy. On the other hand, countries like India and Brazil (here) are pressing for reopening businesses while the rates of contamination and death are increasing, which honestly makes no fucking sense (apart from the fact that both of these countries are ruled by madmen).

Madmen that I'd dare call fascists, I might add.

I would say I praying for y'all, but I'm atheist, so... uhhh... how should I phrase it instead?
thonk
lightbulb moment
Oh yeah! I wish the issues you guys have get solved ASAP.

Wait, but what about the Pizza?

There seems to have been a time skip of a couple dozen minutes, given the empty pizza box on the first panel here

When we run out of water here (which is usually just the waterworks pipes bellow our street getting broken once in a long while, SMH) we just use antibacterial wipes.

^ Is killing really necessary? I mean, transitioning is a thing.

These madlads actually took my comment to heart, oml, yes!

@AkinomaHNU
@shadesofgreymoon
I can see that happening.

^^ Thank you both for your argument and for the meme.

Me: sees people are suggesting to remove the insane amounts of sex tag from this work
Me, who firmly believes the handholding joke will live on on Dynasty Reader even past the Heat Death of the Universe:
NO! YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO US!

All that you said won't change that feels DO NOT overcome facts, NEVER. And it's better to destroy their self-confidence than to give them hope which is far more cruel.

Crushing a human being's hope is one of the most cruel things you can do to them. You can think what you want, but don't go expecting anyone to agree with you unless they're equally as damaged beyond repair as you. Your entire philosophy is wrong and dangerous, and you need to stop now. I can only hope you aren't an influence in any children's lives.

The real way to disarm someone is to take away his hope (X-Panda - Denial)

Hence why there's something of a cliché in mapping that hope (at least when held by the good guys / protagonists) is the last thing that dies. Source: am a mapper myself, and also watched many mappers much better than myself. And honestly, that's the one mapping cliché that should be applied more in real life than it should in any kind of entertainment media.

If there was a manga about us, Dynasty Readers, then in today's chapter you'd probably be seeing a panel with me just laying in confusion with a spirallic background and question marks going as far as the spiral goes.

Every other part of what you're saying is not, however. It's much closer to a recipe for destroying someone's self-confidence instead. I dunno how much you know about psychology (not much I'd wager judging by what you've said here) but it's a known fact that positive reinforcement is FAR more successful at helping someone improve than just shitting all over their efforts.

All that you said won't change that feels DO NOT overcome facts, NEVER. And it's better to destroy their self-confidence than to give them hope which is far more cruel.

... I can say from having experienced innumerable occasions of comparatively brief yet nonetheless harmful phases of self-loathing (induced by in large part by some verbal ironing (yes, "ironing" is how we call it here) by my grandma during my formative years) that I beg to differ. Even temporarily crushing one's self-confidence... In my case me most often being the one to be doing that crushing... Is much worse and cruel, speaking from personal experience (though, unfortunately for my side of the debate, nevertheless being just apocryphal evidence).

It almost sounds like you're impling that's going to be her main reason to marry Sakurako
And if you sincerely believe it would be, well... I can imagine at least 2 more important reasons... One by far so. And no, Kasumi liking Sakurako's cooking, while it would be a more important reason that people annoying her, it wouldn't be the one that'd be by far so.

It wouldn’t be the only reason but I’m implying it could be something that would help push Kasumi to ask.

Oh, I never said that it seemed to me like you implied it would be the only reason. I said it seemed to me like you implied it'd be the main reason

Hopefully this continues on toward their adult life. I wonder if societal norms will play a role in the advancement of their relationship. Living together while you’re at school is quite different than living together once you’re adulting. People bugging them both about marriage and asking them to attend mixers. I can picture Kasumi just telling Sakurako: “Let’s get married so people will stop annoying me.”

Lololololololol I remember this from the discord

So if they do the sexy time before Yuzu and Mei (which i bet they will) I am going to laugh so god damn hard

Lol. But that's as safe as bets go, really. Those are just the facts of life: the Sun shines; plants grow; Normans invade 11th century Europe; Yuzu and Mei will never have intercourse; etc.

^ The only place I found this image on is some meme site (IDK which), but I know it was inspired by that one psychological horror lolicon yuri - Happy Sugar Life.
