I am not a fan of manipulative games, love triangles, zero attempts at communication, and cheating.

Yeah, Momono Moto is definitely not for you. Even if, as people have pointed out, she didn't write the script for this one, it's still a very Momono style story.

Also, you might wanna give Kodama Naoko a miss too.

it's Liz who fucked up.

Which is something we know since the "slave" contract she put up.

I know couples who enjoy that dynamic.

Maki's getting more and more pitiable as every chapter goes by.

You think so? I mean, sure, Liz exploits Maki, but that seems to be just a part of their slave play. BDSM undertones are all over this story. And it's consensual as far as we can tell.

Putting that aside, Liz often behaves like a spoiled child, but Maki is basically the supportive girlfriend all along. And relationships are about trust, after all. In my personal opinion, Maki isn't pitiable for trusting Liz, it's Liz who fucked up.

y i k e s , what is with the hostility towards momono. damn

Tsunderes, tsunderes everywhere. (´∀`) They love this stuff, they lap it up, they don't miss one chapter, then they come here and talk about how they hate it so much. Jeanne was right about how the ol' closet is getting really overcrowded these days... ¯⧹_(ツ)_⧸¯

Fun isn't it?

Anything with a single mom and adorable child that everyone loves?

This is pretty close, I think

Marika-B seems to have resolved herself to detatching from the family that raised her, but she's also had to live in Yuriworld as the only straight person, which must have been rough.

Just a reminder that we don't know her sexual orientation. And she's probably not the only straight person anyway. As far as we know, the virus simply killed men, it didn't change people's sexuality.

I remain confused by the plot's progress

I invite you to go back and read the whole story again. The revelations in this chapter have been hinted at a few times before.

Wait... so which world is our current version of the MC supposed to be in?

Consider world A the one affected by disease, and world B the one not affected.

Our protagonist is Marika-A, born in world A. At a very young age, she was subject to an experiment and changed places with Marika-B from the unaffected world. Marika-A grows up thinking she actually belongs to world B.

Then Marika-B finds out about this experiment, and somehow reverts it, bringing herself back to her homeworld and switching places with protagonist Marika-A, who, in turn, believes she'd been transported to a strange world of only women, when that was actually the world she was born in all among.

tl;dr:: Marika is currently at the world she was born in, and from which she was taken long ago as part of an experiment.

Couldn’t she just settle with the world she’s in now?

The story seems to be heading in that direction, yes.

This seems to be going exactly what you want (it didn't progress far enough yet to tell).

I read this yesterday and it's perfect! It's funny and way too relatable! I love it, thanks!

Still doesn't excuse what the author has done to Hiroko in the original work.
The most uninspiring and hurtful resolve of a love triangle I had ever read! Try to top that, I motherfucking dare you!

I can top that (pun intended). Got a fair share of love triangle stories in my past that resolved horribly. Some for me, some for others.

But I completely understand your point of view. Sono basically used Hiroko and she forgave her for it.

To clarify, I don't think it was quick because they had sex shortly after confessing, or anything. I've had one night stands with people who were virtually strangers, so yeah, it can happen pretty quickly. But generally, I spend at least an hour making out with the person before either of us starts to undress. What is weird in this one is that their first kiss and agreeing to have sex happened within fifty seconds, tops.

I've read this for more than 5times (plus rewatching the anime too)
this series was too good and I'm obsessed

It gets worse. Have you started reading the fanfics yet? ;)

On that note, the YuuSaya BDSM fanfics on AO3 with Yuu being a brat are just awesome. Heretic, yes, but awesome nonetheless.

They had one kiss. ONE. And then "Hey let's fuck?" "Oh yeah, okay, let's"

I don't care if they're in college or whatever, sex after a single kiss is sort of a record.

Reading this in Spanish is really weird because I read Touko's lines in the voice of Paola Bracho. Fitting, I suppose.

I bet Iroha and Izumi starts going out at some point and that's what makes the main pair think "oh, shit, we can be like that too".

Probably not? I mean, Nanaki is aware that girls can have romantic feelings for each other, because, you know, Izumi did confess to her and everything, and she made it pretty explicit that she meant love in that kind of way. So they don't need to break the "oh, two girls can date each other" barrier.

Have y'all seen how nice Kanade was to Iroha? So far there have been more pure romance moments between pairings Iroha x Kanade and Izumi x Nanaki than other way around.

You know, being kind to someone and being attracted to them are completely different things. You can have a great friend which you help out in times of need, and whom you care for a lot, without either of you feeling the need to get into each other's pants. And you can stumble upon someone in a party and fall in love after five minutes of conversation.

Kanade and Iroha are great friends. Let them stay that way.

Can't blame Iroha, anyone would have fallen for Izumi there.

Really? I probably would have fallen for Iroha instead. She's so cute and dorky <3

It's basically pairing the spares, but I'm surprisingly not against this. Iroha's kind of a small animal, and her cuteness matches Izumi's coolness. Fun pairing, I suppose.

I'd really love to read more stories with a positive representation of BDSM. Most stories on that theme either ignore any aspects of a relationship outside sex, or depict very unhealthy relationships (famous example being 50 shades of whatever). It's frustratingly hard to find a story that explores healthy aspects of D/s relationships, such as trust building, aftercare, respect for safe words, et cetera.

It doesn't have to be manga (I love novels and webcomics, as well). If anyone knows of a yuri/gl story like that, I would be very thankful.

This seems to be going exactly what you want (it didn't progress far enough yet to tell).

Thanks, I'll check it out.

So I just saw this image come up and had a thought. Any good yuri stories about two girls who at first are both after the same person but end up liking each other?

It Would Be Great if You Didn't Exist (official title translated as Wish You Were Gone), though from what I remember finding a good quality traslation over entire series was a bit of a hassle. It's exactly what you're looking for. MC catches her boyfriend cheating on her with other girl and they both fall for each other.

The english version is published on Tapas.

I think the real issue about incest is how easy it is to result in power imbalance and therefore abuse. It can happen in relationships between siblings, since you've been raised together and your entire network of family relations is connected to your sibling as well. Think things like "if you don't do this I'll tell everyone about us" and harming your relations with family members after a breakup.

I'm not even going to go into parent/child relations because that's pedophilia and rape, and nobody should even try to defend this.

There is the matter of a slightly increased risk of genetic diseases in children of these couples, because the chance that you both carry the same rare recessive gene is higher than for random strangers. It's not a "very high risk" or anything, just higher than average. So genetic counseling for these couples is strongly advised.

In this particular story, however, there is neither a power imbalance nor risk of genetic diseases, so any complaints people have about this couple fall into the category of morality, as in, what people consider inherently right or wrong.

In the issue of power imbalance, a relationship like this one would probably be much healthier than a pseudo-incest relationship between stepsisters who were raised together.

Aoi Hana was quite well known when it first released. I remember enjoying it very much, though it may not hold up quite as well in comparison to more modern titles.

I'll always recommend Murasakiiro no Qualia, it's one of my favorites.

Other than that... Hanjuku Joshi and First Love Sisters.

All my love and lies by Takemiya Jin is exactly this setup. I'll try to think of others

1/2 of the comments “incest is bad waaaaaa”
1/2 of the comments “who the hell wants hot lemonade”

The two greatest taboos of contemporary society.

What about hot incest and Lemonade ?

Those are fine ;)
