^That's fair. For me I'm only vaguely familiar with their dynamic, so luckily I guess I'm more free to enjoy the ship. Which they have wonderful character designs and a lovely size difference aspect.

The kiss + hand under the skirt is perfection

Gotta keep your shark wet

I'm loving the water here, very pretty

Sorry Lava you gotta smooch the dragon to get her to move ;)

Well her heart is in the right place at least lmao

Ah so this series https://dynasty-scans.com/series/jk_chan_and_her_male_classmates_mom

I'm always happy to see more mouse and wolf together!

Definitely need a part two, this was just lovely! Thanks for the translation!

That sure is one cute devil

Very cute

Thanks for the translation!

First chapter with Amiya was interesting, I imagine most people have no idea the horrors Amiya has experienced.

Chapter two was fun with the pet aspect, Uncle Matter, and Kroos being cute especially with her friends on the final page!

Chapter three was a fun chapter with the dragon sisters!

Oh I hope she doesn't fall for this, that'd be so, so stupid.

Yeah if this "drama" isn't solved next chapter by a phone call or a text, I'm gonna throw myself out of a window >_>

Wait, I don't get the joke about the human girl saying she had a third leg at one point too. Was there a chapter she magically grew a penis, or something, and I've just forgot about it?

I also forget, but knowing this series is seems pretty likely lmao

Shiori dragging Hinako away so that the other won't see her scars in the bath was a pretty heartwarming scene

Just unfortunate that it was shortly followed by her being cold x_x

Lovely

^I think it's icecream shaped like his club haha

I still wish Dark Marie was a servant or at least an outfit

^and I bet she'll regret nothing lmao

Chun Li's excitement is definitely relatable haha

I clicked on the comments to see discussion about the cute story. I got 3 pages of (wanabe) thesis instead.

Seriously lol, sometimes I don't know why I even bother clicking on the discussion page button.

Honestly it's best to just enjoy media without looking at things like comments.

This will be my last reply to this current chapter

You know exactly what he meant with that question, so I think your question answers itself, lol
I guess that’s what they call “foreshadowing.”

Yes...

What fun is he referring to?

He just wants to be friends with them.... In the raw with the little to no knowledge i have i saw that at that moment there was the word "Nakama" there...

Being friends is illegal though

It seems so...

It is not illegal to be friends between girls and guys. No one said it was and that was already clarified. However, "he hurts you because he likes you" is archaic and harmful information and not a showing of friendship nor love. Either the translator did a horrific job, which I do not think they did, or Jerkface literally said he's used to manipulating girls to get what he wants, He also attempted compliment, in appeal to a sense of masculinity he sees and likes in Mitsuki, but ended up insulting her to where she's offended enough to swear.

He's clearly acting out of some selfish fulfillment. I think one of you even called him a narcissist: extreme self-involvement that disregards the needs or space or agency of others.

It is unfortunately a not so uncommon response for some men to see women together and assume they have an opportunity to join in. Being a Jerkface to someone he once tried to manipulate and then mock, then further insults, and yet now he's just a misunderstood soul looking for friends?

It is very possible that he's a lonely person. It is very possible he has few or no actual friends. And this is how he reaches out? Possibly, he wouldn't be the first, but that doesn't make it right. I know people are engrossed with cancel culture and see any and all criticism as an attempt to condemn someone. However, he is a Jerkface and he needs to learn that, and learn boundaries, and learn from it if he wants friends.

He's used to getting what he wants through manipulation. His reactions are scattered when girls speak up to him and or confront him. But once he learns he can not walk over girls he's actually can be decent.

Maybe that's the point of his character. Not to be condemned, but as someone who can do better. This does not invalidate the criticism nor say girls and guys can't be friends nor say he can't be anything other than a jerk face for the rest of his life. This is not a complication, if my prior explanations did so then that is on me, but this is me clarifying.

Goodnight. And no comments of "it's just a story". It is and it isn't and this discussion isn't unwarranted.

Yes he's rude. I'm pretty sure he wants to be friends after the initial exchange, but he definitely starts off on the wrong foot.

Edit: Also I was joking with the it's illegal to be friends comment, since it's commonly believed that guys and girls can't be friends. My comment wasn't directed at anyone specifically, it's just something I've heard a lot over the years, and it simply struck me as funny since my friend group is very diverse.

Sigh... Sucks this series is gay bait according to interview with author.

the author just didn't see this as "yuri" but Woman loving another woman situation (like a gender based) also she loves matured girls if u see her other works js.

But that's literally what Yuri means, lol

Yuri is more about the fetishized fantasy girl on girl romance designed more for crowd pleasing and eroticism than realism. Needless to say, real world lesbian romances tend to be VERY different from those you see in yuri stories

If someone seeks realism on a genre from Japanese media they sure came to the wrong place, not only Yuri is like that. yet, I'm still to see all those numerous fetishized Yuri works that people talk soooo much about, I can list 3 from the top of my head after reading this genre for years

You never noticed how much faster yuri couples start kissing and getting naked compared to straight romance manga?

I was mainly referring to how the Author saying he doesn't see this as "yuri" probably means that she is looking for more realism in the romance and doesn't just want it to fall into the trap of "girl on girl hawt."

Yaoi and Hetero both have a lot of quick nudity and kissing, it all depends on where you look. Also this series is a pretty standard high school affair, one we've seen many times in Yuri manga before, and plenty of Yuri manga have slow build up as well. There are many works out there for Lesbian/Gay/Hetero audiences that all go at various paces. I don't see how this manga better than something like Bloom Into You, simply because that has kissing early. Also as I said before, Bloom Into You is by a mangaka that has openly stated support for gay marriage in Japan.

Edit: Also again the main thing here is this probably isn't going to be romance focused, it's going to be about exploring feelings and self understanding.

Jesus Christ, People really like to overcomplicate the simplest things

I feel like this whole conversation keeps going around in circles. I think "Kirin-kun" already provided a nuanced take about this author's post, by saying the core point the author might have been making is that she doesn't want this to be romance focused, and rather wants it to be about realizing feelings and some of the confusion that comes from that.
(Edit: Hopefully I'm correctly understanding your post Kirin-kun, and apologies if I'm not)

I genuinely don't feel like there's even a point of me saying for a third time that there are lesbian mangaka that use the term "Yuri", while making romance works for a lesbian audience. Mangaka that use and own the term to make positive works are great, and that's all I can say.
