Regarding tagging: I understand the site staff generally prioritizes spoiler sensitivity, but I think it's worth considering reworking tag functions so that readers don't just stumble into things they'd rather not be seeing.

It's been suggested. Quite often, by several people, and in a variety of different ways. I remember someone from the Dynasty staff saying something like "sadly, it can't be done". Maybe they've got no dev in the team currently, or something like that.

Who the hell drinks lemonade hot, though?

It's a thing in many places, actually, especially in colder climates.

And then there's a bunch of loonies who believe hot lemonade (plus honey, onion, aloe vera or spirits, depending on which conspiracy theorist you're dealing with) is a panacea for * insert some serious disease here *. Like cancer. And covid.

When her mom said her father died and later she saw Maki all sad it was pretty obvious they'd be related, anyways, wouldn't that be considered incest? I wonder if putting that tag in would be spoiler-ish? Probably yes.

Yes and yes, read the rest of the forum thread.

^ I know what you mean.

A simple oneshot, nothing sexy, just slightly romantic... and, in half a day, five pages of comments!?

Incest (or even the smallest hint thereof) sure is super popular. ¯⧹_(ツ)_⧸¯

You should check the Frozen fandom discussions about Elsa/Anna. It's wild.

Could be that when the Dad remarried, the woman he married already had a child from a previous one. If that's the case, then they could finally breathe.

I can't honestly see how much of a difference that would make.

That goes from Incest to Pseudo-Incest

If you wanna get technical, okay, but does it actually matter? As people have said before, there's no issue with power imbalance, since they're strangers, and no worries about the increased risk of recessive genetic diseases in children.

Honestly the only situation I can see in which being blood related would matter to this couple is if one of them needed an organ transplant and the other volunteered as a donor. Other than that, why would you care about the genetics?

Honestly this is like the test case for moral incest. There is no chance for any genetic problems in their children, nor is there any power imbalance at work considering they didn't know they were half-sisters before they started dating

I think this sums it up.

Also, to people complaining about the lack of an incest tag: Dynasty mods oppose tags that spoil major plot twists, with the sole exception of very triggering material such as rape. This has been discussed in the past regarding other similar stories (check the forum thread on Marionette by Takemiya Jin) and their decision is final. So no use complaining about it here.

Well, shit

I assume it's a translation error that part when Nao says she wants to become "an actor", but can anyone confirm how it is in the original? 'Cause I can totally picture Nao as non-binary.

It's not an error. I don't know where you live, but here (in the US), "actor" is often used for both men and women. Some people insist on using actress for women and actor for men, but others consider that old-fashioned, and there's no agreement in the industry over which term is correct.

Thank you. I'm not a native speaker, and my English is an amalgamation of US and UK words, with even a bit of Scottish in the mix. But what matters is that I'm still learning and I make a few mistakes from time to time.

I second Cirque Arachne.

It's hard to find something as skilfully written as Yagakimi. There's a couple of really good one shots I recommend (like this one ), but I reckon you want a longer story, so I suggest you check, if you haven't already, some of Morinaga Milk's work. Girl Friends is a community favorite, but I also recommend Secret of the Princess and this collection.

For manhwa, you should check out Ratana Satis. Some of her work has sensitive content, like rape (just like most of the stories published by Lehzin), so keep that in mind.

I know it's a bit against the rules to post outside links, but I'm going to ask for mods to let this one slide, because this webcomic is exactly what OP is asking for to fill the void of Yagakimi's absence.

This is what I personally think is the most realistic depiction of a BDSM relationship. Although it is a Love Live doujin.

Ooooo very nice, thank you!

I was hoping to find some stories that don't only focus on the sex, and this one definitely does. But it does it very nicely, indeed.

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.

Guess what?

sign me up on that!
Ayn particular recomendation among these?

I've only read a few, but if you're into bondage, this one is a precious little thing.

Guess what?

I'd like to see a story about them getting together. Like, how they overcome their rivalry over Touko by realizing they have feelings for each other. It's there a fanfic like this already?

This is wholesome

I can't help but think it's a jab at us... >.>

Same

Is it just me or does this series reuse a lot of tropes from Girl Friends? Like, in this chapter, the whole passing out in the bath and being carried to the room by someone who likes you and "omg she saw everything" et cetera.

I've noticed this about some other chapters as well.

Okay, the whole suspense about the car "crash" feels really pointless and unnecessary now.

It's possible that's just the sound of Jun dropping his bike, which would be pretty hilariously anticlimactic resolution.

Kudos for the prediction, friend.

Remember, humans are food and nothing else.

Sound advice.

I think it's really interesting how people can hate this series so much yet still come here to complain about it at every new chapter.

I loved this chapter. Yes, Liz did screw up, but I can see this being an important part of her character development. I mean, she was treating Maki a bit like trash, but after this chapter Liz probably realized that she loved her. And also that she's not a good person herself.

Anyway, great stuff :3

I love the vibe of this chapter.

What about betting Chiyo to a game of Fire EmblemSmash Ultimate ?

That I would like to see.

I don't think this was reuploaded intentionally. The scalators for this one probably had no idea that it had already been done by a different group in the past. It happens.

Still a mystery to me why Dynasty accepted the upload request.

At the very least this will inspire Hana to be honest instead of hiding behind this contract business.

Or not.
