Hasn't she be always strict regardless of who ?

Your point?

If she really had any feelings, she should have already told Eiko to wait after graduation but she didn't.

Probably because she's responding to Eiko's persistence way more than she strictly speaking should or is willing to admit. Sensei's basically trying to be a far more responsible and morally upright adult (nevermind now educator) here than she actually is and duly struggling, and Eiko is well aware of it.

On a whole different note I find the way Kamu, completely deadpan, casually joins Tama in messing with Eiko endlessly amusing.

And yet peoples will told you that she is only Eiko's pet and have no real romantics interest whatsoever. Meanwhile Sensei who is just rejecting, scolding Eiko and find her annoying seem to have romantics interests. I'm sorry but i can't find any appeal of the Eiko x Sensei ship.

Aside from the detail that Eiko quite enjoys that tsundere treatment do keep in mind that Enami-sensei has a certain professional (nevermind legal) obligation to try and stay aloof of her student's rather blatant flirting - difficult as it is proving to be.

Bazu's grudge against humanity is actually kinda appropriate considering how vengeful crows are.

...they are? :|

They recognize people and recognize patterns in treatment by them to the point where they can form violent grudges where they harass known enemies and even teach their children and other crows to harass them. They also recognize friendly treatment and people have even experienced instances of crows they've been friendly to giving them gifts.

That's not being "vengeful", that's learning from experience and having a good memory. Most halfway smart animals can do something similar which is why assorted scarecrow-type devices work very poorly on many birds (gulls being a prominent urban example). Also culture of sorts in the form of passing on knowledge to offspring.

Their smaller cousins the jackdaws do something similar; they exchange tips on foraging prospects when they gather in their characteristic noisy nighttime roosts.

-- with such wonderful art to boot.

Speaking of, can we discuss how pages 26-27 are a parade of amazing expressions and body language? Sayaka trying to nonchalantly contemplate the weather and Touko's sour look get me every time.

Random related notes: Sayaka being too awks to directly tell Touko about her new GF is oddly endearing, as is her and Yuu apparently having finally worked out a comfortable friendly distance but still studiously addressing and referring to each other rather formally even with Touko (who's on the pretty close first-name no-honorifics basis with Sayaka) present.

Oh sure, the only reason Miyuki's advances were getting any traction in the first place is Asuka's interested - apprehensively and not specifically in her, but in principle and (seen from the outside) to learn more about her budding sexuality.

Leaving the older girl's malfunctioning moral compass aside she'd likely never even had made her initial advances in the first place if she didn't intuit a high likelihood of some level of reciprocal interest.

I just skipped those ruminations as they didn't directly pertain to BD's bogus claims concerning psychological/emotional abuse and the refuting thereof.

The MahiMahi chapter has a somewhat more mature vibe than usual.

The barely-veiled proposal might have something to do with that...

I cannot but idly wonder if hanging around the YuuMari couple hasn't had an effect on their view of the... possibilities... of their relationship? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Okay I'll just address this since it caught my ireeye enough for me to do some looking around about it (and get distracted into a bit of a Wiki Walk but I don't consider that a minus):

If the general opinion of emotional and psychological abuse is a stretch to you sure. You are just gonna pretend that your opinion is right without any evidence and accuse me of not giving evidence as usual though.

In very simple terms - what "general opinion"? Because A) there isn't one and B) what little consensus there now exists, Miyuki's actions do not match.

You could certainly accuse her of things like exploiting her informal "position of trust" as Asuka's mentor and old-established reliable big sister figure (eg. see the phone convo with the entirely unsuspecting Ayako) and the whole bit about trying to get into the younger girl's panties is all kinds of deeply morally questionable, but that's a whole another matter.

Oguri x Anna
or
Oguri x Kitty
I am torn now

Oguri x Yuki, of course.

Yuki x the main girl (my memory is awful)

Riko - it doesn't take long to flip through the first few pages to check you know... :P

Obvious optimal solution: Riko x Yuki x Oguri x Anna & Kitty - cats aren't exactly monogamous anyway after all o3o

EDIT: Jeez. I am done with the slut topic now. You two are insufferable.

So I'm guessing I'll never be seeing any kind of citation to back up that blatantly spurious statistical claim you pulled out of your ass then.

LIker I said, I'm done with this topic. This isn't the right thread for it.

Nice backtracking but okay.

The Miyuki thing however I can talk about.

...the one where you stretch the meaning of "psychological abuse" until it screams?

Sleeping around always ends badly. Always. It's just a statistical inevitability.

[Citation needed] methinks.

Whether its a sexual disease, a bad partner who does something violent or whatever else you can think of.

The track record of more monogamous behaviour is pretty lousy in that regard too so this seems like an awfully weak argument to make...

Announcing it to everyone and getting a reputation for it ruins your social life in the long run too.

Last I checked she didn't do the former and as for the latter, well, sexually active girls catch that stigma awfully easy anyway; surely it won't be necessary to read out the stud/slut double standard to you? Though I'm wondering if you're quite aware that you're actively contributing to sustaining the latter here...

The way (some) people here manage to jump headfirst into stuffy Victorian moralism without even noticing never ceases to amaze, disappoint and amuse me in equal measure.

Morals were never a factor as far as I'm concerned.

You sure spend a lot of words condemning her "slutty" habits for that. Nevermind now parroting about verbatim the usual checklist Moral Guardian types tend to level against nigh any sexual behaviour outside whatever particular narrow stripe they find to be acceptable; I'm slightly disappointed at the lack of "think of the children!" there to be honest.

Now Miyuki's conduct towards Asuka can certainly disagreed with already on basis of the latter's age and not at all helped by the former's position as a surrogate big sister of sorts, but this and that are two quite separate matters.

Aside from manipulating and hurting people of course, like Miyuki does.

I suppose the former would be guilty as charged already by the default that "seduction" certainly falls under the rubric of interpersonal manipulation; the latter would be rather debatable and require citing what you think implies she's intentionally doing so just for starters.

Oh lord here come all the handholding jokes.

The only thing coming is Mari.

The face she's making strikes me more like a "oh God finally found a bathroom and could take a dump" kind of one tbh

But yeah that chapter is practically tailor made for bad handholding jokes and scandalous moral turpitude

Miyuki is a slut. nothing more, nothing less. No need to argue with me here.

Are you actually trying to play the slut-shaming card in the current year.

It's certainly nothing to be proud of, especially when she exploits people.

Quoth yourself,

Those two things are really not connected.
