I don't think the Reversal tag fits in this story

Haha, I was the one who suggested it, but I admit that this is a subtle case

If they just keep this up for another decade or two, they’ll be de facto married

I see the comment section is really in favor of the “boys shall die” part of the concept

Are there any villainess yuri stories where the villainess is actually fairly effed up? I mean someone like Fukiko Ichinomiya from Oniisama e. She was a seriously nasty person.

Maybe I’m weird for wanting it, but there’s nothing like the thrill of digging into the twisted psychology of a screwed up villainess. Most of these villainess stories are cute, but I abandon them ‘cuz they’re just tsunderes in fantasy settings. Not much real villainy.

It ain’t spoilers if I don’t know what the heck is going on. I am quite enjoying getting all my knowledge of Gundam from doujin!

If Mitsuki moves to L.A., then she might get exposed to industrial levels of gay.

But on the other hand, we could get a beautiful slow burn angsty LDR, which I wouldn’t be opposed to…

Well, I found my new profile pic.

But Risa’s full blush was a solid second contender

I understand about 19% of these. Need to have a Japanese person sitting next to me to explain all the cultural references.

Detective Hiroko: Hmm… the answer to this mystery seems obvious, almost as though it were right in front of my nose. But no, that’s impossible. That would be easy. TOO easy….

Read this entire series from start to finish in a few days because of this new release. My takeaway… I think I’m starting to get to be too old for the vanilla high school romances. But it definitely felt nostalgic, like a manga from ten years ago. I also did think that the characters felt a little shallow, but you know, whatever. They’re high schoolers so we have to forgive them.

Ayame wanting to be normal and get married more than she even particularly cares about which guy it is… yeah, I get that. I feel that too in a way.

Also, I wonder if Ema was referring to the picrew 悪い男メーカー (bad man maker) on page 2?

I belly laughed when Hiroko was like “Oh shit gotta say something straight” and then proceeded to say the LEAST straight thing

I always love the moments in manga when a character is like “EnGLiSh!?!?!????”

Is there a bigger wasted effort* than the time and money spend teaching english to japanese people in school and then the results of all that.

I mean, to be fair Japanese grammar is about as far away from English as you can get. And if my crush/oshi suddenly started speaking fluent Chinese to someone at a concert venue, I would probably have the same reaction. Aya panicking is funny to me because it’s relatable >_<

I usually don’t read manhua, but so far I really like the pacing here and the character designs. They seem like normal actual women rather than gorgeous supermodels. Maybe I just keep stumbling on the wrong kind of manhua?

Oh my goodness it took me a few months, but I finally got caught up start to finish. This manga is the definition of wholesome for me. I really would love to see Nagisa in a loving relationship with someone but it’s just so refreshing to see everyone caring for each other every chapter. I love that.

Hey guys, just so you know, I was interested in this series a couple months ago and bought the raws up to volume 2 (volume 3 just released) and if you're annoyed by Hiroko's complete inability to understand the words "I'm in love with you," I suggest you either drop this now or wait for all the chapters to release so you can read it all in one shot, because it just gets so, so much worse.

HECK YEAH. Bring on the antics. I’m ready.

I’ve reached my limit. I can’t suspend my disbelief anymore.

…. There’s no way that she can make tamagoyaki if she can’t even boil potatoes.

**EDIT: Rereading the last chapter, I’ve also realized that the lyrics Ayaka was quoting probably sound slightly more ambiguous in Japanese. If these lyrics have left out the pronouns (as Japanese often does), then it’s reasonable for someone to imagine “Why can’t he understand” rather than “why can’t you understand.” This is all conjecture, but I just have a hunch that there are several places in the manga where the ambiguity of the Japanese language could feed into Hiroko’s delusions

Yet another yuri manga that hits way too close to my tenderest dreams. Falling in love with a shy girl in a library, and both of you are writers and feel embarrassed by how much you like the other…!

I need to go punch some ice or something

She'd have an aneurysm if she ever googles what happens after kissing

Moving in together?

Serina, I have to say the arm spread nonchalantly across the back of the couch is quite the bold move
