People who would go out of their way to assume other people's taste relates to their irl is a sight of saddening. "Cheating" tag is a form of drama, and lo and behold, most people enjoy dramas on various genres. So what's the point of moral correction here?

.

"Cheating is worse than violence"

Literally no one in at least the last four pages has said anything of the sort for either of these things. The closest we get is people arguing over the definition of cheating and whether this is cheating, and the person who said "gay makes it okay" is a bad way of thinking, which is an entirely different topic.

Apparently this classic tweet applies to the Dynasty Scans forum, too.

I'm sorry I'm banging on about this, I'm anxious about being just as annoying, but really, y'all should stop this. Please.

I dunno, out of all the couples, they might be my least favorite?

Why though, Saori x Shizuku is the best couple in this series.

I mean I'm a Heke x Shinohara girl, myself. I think it's just a personal thing, overly violent to the point of barely making sense. Nothing wrong with liking different ships, right?

I dunno, out of all the couples, they might be my least favorite? I still love these obviously, I have a soul.

Honestly, the whole "wow this comment section condones cheating!!" statements and implications are getting kind of stale, if not outright annoying. I don't really get how hard it is to understand that it makes for a more interesting story and juicy drama, but it's still just a story. It's kind of insulting to insinuate that just because someone finds the drama created by cheating as interesting or engaging story-wise that they condone the acts in real life. The hell's up with that.

It's really not that common. Hell, as you can see from the following quote, it's so uncommon, this johnb had to walk back a comment about how people do this.

Edit: Uh looking back over the coment, people aren't cheater hating like I expected. Must be because it was kind of obvious it was coming and the haters jumped ship. Oh well, I still stand by what I wrote.

Are there some? Sure. But there's far more people complaining about people like that than there are people like that. And I'd really like it to stop. It derails conversation so hard for a manga that is quite good and shouldn't be mired in controversy that is only barely there. And not just for cheating, but for anything that's considered bad to do. Cheating, noncon, loli stuff.

I actually have weird experience with this, being poly. My first poly relationship, I was dating someone, and someone else was coming onto me. She was actually a celebrity who me and my partner both loved a lot, and I immediately told my partner and she was like "uh, hell yea? GO FOR IT? YES?" and we just... opened our relationship and I realized that's kinda just what I preferred lol

But I don't think that's how this'll go with Jun

Welp, saw this comin'. I'm surprised they came to this as quick as they did, tbh. It's nice. Now we can work on communication cause uh, hmm

NOW. NOW we should consider adding the cheater tag lol.

This feels like something Sal Jiang would have written, though I think she would have pulled it off a bit more. It's not bad I guess. Just not up to her usual quality, I guess.

This chapter was always one of my favorites, and it's great to see it again, even without many noticable changes. Like, that perfect adorable confession that's not a confession is just chef's kiss

I usually find the people complaining about those bothered by a story more annoying than those who are bothered by a story but hey, if you wanna use the "Gay Makes Everything Okay" mantra, go for it I guess.

Just try not to bring it up all the time please, it does get tiring

At first I was a little concerned and squicked by how overly pushy the one was. Like, consent and communication is important lady, I know, I have special interests too, but talking over the other is-

Then I got to the gay, and that helped smooth it out. Gay makes everything okay.

And this ISN'T a one-shot? Wow.

Imagine immediately getting together with your romantic interest, impressive. Not even any miscommunication. These girls are pros.

Saw the writing on the wall but I didn't expect the sudden time warp three years into the future with literal "gee do you remember X from within the time warp?" segments

....I still loved this though. The last volume is a noticeable drop off, but frankly I'm just glad it got to finish this time. I'm ALSO glad for that steamy sex scene, hell yea.

Found my new favorite reaction image, too.

Something I like about this that I kinda just realized is that this is just "a bunch of lesbians hang out through school" and it's NEVER brought up. No mention of the fact they could have just named the club "The Lesbian Club" and it'd be accurate, like, no gay panic of "oh god what if am gay". Nah. Girls good, wanna kiss girls, only anxiety about whether that girl should wanna kiss ME

Into it.

aaaaaAAAA

Heck this is already great and very cute. My favorite shit is cute pining and lots of blushing and yesss

Also hell yea, wingman friend IMMEDIATELY helpin' out with da gay shit. That's how you know you got a true bro (sis).

I wonder if Yuzu has any feelings for Minami yet, or if it'll be awakened once she sees a hint, like it was for her.

Also I really like the art in this

Eyyy they talked about the nails lmao

I can't imagine putting on and removing nail polish every day, that shit would be so annoying. Also it'd really fuck up my nails. TBF I haven't worn nail polish in like 5 years lmao, maybe its just not my thing

Also yay, double crush, double crush!

Me to the person I've loved my entire life and have finally reconnected with: "I want to have a good relationship with you"

Romantic

Those looks tho, the expressions in this are perfect. Immaculate. Smoldering with passion.

I think for some tags asking for over 10 examples might not be fair, especially since there are lots of tags on here that have just under that, or even less. But I do think giving as many examples as you can think of during your suggestion is a good idea.

BTW, I've been editing my post about my suggestion (Foreigner) from a few pages ago any time I find a new thing that fits it. Currently at 13+, and counting!

That color intro with Ayaka talking about school days and looking at an album feels like the future... I think this might actually finally be the final volume.

I cannot freaking believe we got 6 volumes of this. This feels like it should have ended ages ago, but we were blessed with even more, and it's all been great. God bless this manga.

Yessss Miss Sunflower, gooood

Let the dere flow through you

I think my favorite thing about this is seeing them come of age in a really nice way. Like, it doesn't feel rushed. It really has been like three years in story. And I know there's a lot more to translate so I'm super excited to see them grow up even more through college and stuff.

It's actually not bad theory, but how do you explain grin at the end of last chapter? Unless it was just her being happy about making progress with Hinako, but author wants to keep misleading us, hence her partially showing her true form and looking scary?

Yeah, this author LOVES keeping us on our toes about everyone's intentions. She's pretty... creepy, just intentionally, so if she WAS happy, and they just showed us her true form for a second to throw us off the trail, that'd fit very well.

I think Shiori might not actually want to eat Hinako, and is actually in love with her. It's all just a ruse to get close to her and try and help her.

"I want to kill you" usually is a poor ruse for getting close to people...

To be fair, when the person in question is full on "I have a suicidal death wish" it might not be the worst idea to be "I'm going to be the one that kills you, but not yet, only when I've decided you're worth killing." Gives them a reason to let you stick around.

This. Here's my thoughts:

Shiori doesn't actually want to kill and eat Hinako. Maybe she saw the tragedy, wants to help, fell in love with the sad nearly dead girl, I dunno who knows. What matters if she wants to keep Hinako alive. And since Hinako wants to DIE, and she's a monster, she played up to her monster strengths and abilities. Hinako is less likely to just kill herself since she learned this is going to happen. This gives Shiori time to try and make her happy, with the excuse "that will make me want to eat you". Once she's happier, mission complete.

As for the argument "but she tried to kill her best friend", Shiori has been killing every monster that gets near Hinako, and she thought that Miko was going to kill her. WE thought Miko was going to kill her. There was a bunch of freaking people in this comments section that went "oh shit is Miko actually a bad guy and she's going to do a murder?" And I think Shiori is a bit less trusting than we would be, so of course she wouldn't trust Miko.

Like I know the general energy of this thread is "Miko is best girl and should get together with Hinako", cause people like the childhood friend angle, but try not to like, crucify me for offering another angle. Like I said it's almost certainly wishful thinking, but it could go this way. It COULD.

It prolly won't. But it COULD!

Whoops, she got a little too into it lol bad time to brag

This series is so unpleasant to read now I don't know why I still haven't dropped it yet.

I actually agree with you on this I think. I'm sticking with it for now but for some reason I'm really not enjoying it as much anymore, I think ever since this weird triangle (square?) plot has been introduced.

"ever since that day..."

I think Shiori might not actually want to eat Hinako, and is actually in love with her. It's all just a ruse to get close to her and try and help her.

This might be wishful thinking. But I'm starting to lean towards that now. The author might also be intentionally playing that angle so that we get hope.

Adorable. Very happy to see chubby yuri done in a way that's not offensive or poke fun at her weight, it's hardly even mentioned. Wonderful~
