The best anime of the year has ended... the void left behind won't be filled in a loooong time

I don't know... As good as Extreme Hearts was, isn't that a bit too much praise, especially in a year that already gave us Akebi-chan? :P

Honestly couldn't get through even two episodes of Akebi-chan. Love the manga but the animation in the anime hurt my eyes.

Anyway, personally I liked Shokei Shoujo the most out of all of this year's offerings. LycoReco is a very close 2nd though

SORA PLEASE SAY “MARRY ME” IN THE NEXT CHAPTER..

Guys. They're teenagers.

Realistically, it's probably going to be "Please move in with after we graduate", which is great because then they can finally reach the ultimate stage of lesbianism: roommates

If roommate is the ultimate stage of lesbianism then what does it mean to be someone's legally binding roommate for life?

6 and 7 are among the best the series has. I'd only put 3 above them but they're far above 1 and 2. The last episodes in 6 are amazing (also 6-6 is the best episode in the show) and 7 has some of the best tension in the series (hell, the only reason Ironwood is even good is because of that tension. So if he's good so are RWBY+, the Ace Ops, Watts&co, and the Happy Huntresses)

And while 8 is easily the worst season in the series yet it does still have more good than that (the Emerald, Cinder, and Nora stuff).

No, actually. Claire is canonically a switch and according to Rei the only person who's ever managed to top her.

Clearly the demon lord changes according to the heroine's preferences. :P

But in that case, shouldn't they've taken the form of a busty ojou-sama? :D

She already has one of those. Now she wants a daughter

This is like a weird alternate telling and feels honestly more clumsy than even the anime

Oh for me it feels quite the opposite. I find this to feel far better put together than the anime was

^There's a chapter in the manga where Rin asks Hanayo to be her bride while giving her Valentine's Chocolate

It's not canon canon but still pretty canon. Like S1 ChikaRiko

Internally screaming

Externally screaming

This page is perfection

What's so unpure about being a good girl?

Also, the dialogue implies that she's trying those shoes on before buying. No reason to take your socks off in a mall for that xD

right, no reason to put on the ugly socks in the first place xD

The socks are really cute tho?

Your understanding is very wrong. Japan was long ahead of most Western countries in many ways, especially transgender rights.

You know Japan still requires trans people to be sterile and get SRS in order to change their legal gender. And they can't have children under 20 (or be married since no same sex marriage).
They are far behind most Western countries, especially in transgender rights.

Lycoris Recoil Well, So much for the people that were hoping that this would be Yuri, lol

There's still hope for the confession/kiss before death. Which is what I've wanted since ep 2.

Wouldn't this be Exhibitionism?

Bringing the keychain of a late idol friend to class is, uhh, I don't know what to call that move.

mourning? showing that you care?

Is it me or do the character designs kind of look like Strawberry Panic

YES!

Embarrassed, blushing bottom Tsubasa is good.

Anyway, Asumi dating Mai but still bondbanging with her now gf's workmates would a wonderful ending imo.

FIFY!

What's the difference?

This is getting frustrating. When will Mai show up???

I think you're reading the wrong manga.

Mai is the Macguffin. "Searching for Mai" is the thin connective tissue for a whole bunch of hot sex, which is what the series is actually about. Mai showing up ends all the fun.

hey, it’s not just about the sex, I read it for the plot at least :V

Considering that Asumi, in multiple occasions now, booked a session more to have sex bc she’s horny, and finding Mai has more or less become like an happy accident or side effect. Slowly as we keep progressing, it’s becoming clear that even when she finds Mai, it’s not going to be as romantic and happy ending as some people are hoping/expecting it to be. She’ll probably keep going to the brothel because she wants to enjoy having sex with different kinds and even multiple girls at once if she can afford it.

This series could even continue even after finding Mai, but they’re keeping it for now as a pretend goal to keep up Asumi’s sexscapades until a new goal or plot motivation comes up. The title is “Asumi is Interested in Lesbian Brothels” and not “Asumi goes to a lesbian brothel to find her childhood friend”, there are many ways for this story to continue past finding Mai, and with how well received it is, it is highly likely it will keep going past that point.

I don't think that's guaranteed. Maybe she'll continue going to brothels, maybe they'll be in an open or poly relationship, or maybe she really will settle down with Mai. She likes the sex, obviously, but the emotional involvement with Mai might be worth so much more that she'll give up the brothel.

I mean, assuming Mai keeps her job then any relationship between them would automatically be open.

Stew

Yes. She got a face full

On our inevitable path for Asumi and Nanao to form the most powerful polycule known to lesbian kind.

Also, as an extra: the true "pushed to the side childhood friend" ship of Love Live: Kanan x Chika and/or You

No, I was mentioning seven couples and two trios

What about Rin and Hanayo and Umi and Kotori and Honoka and Kanan and Mari and Dia?
