Oh my god, one of the stories on her Pixiv has these two getting drinks with Ise and Shima and it is almost too cute for words.

Send it to Gouma-den >_>

'Completed' as of Ch 13? Cancelled?

Gallete and Galette meets are mostly indie publishing magazines and meets in particular doesn't have consistently running series. As such, I don't think there are editors who control, axe, and provide detailed feedback on series. It seems more like they collect content and publish what they can based on funds available. They probably haven't asked the author for another chapter on these two, but based on the author commentary at the end it seems pretty possible there could be more in the future. And that would largely depend on...

You, dear reader! Galette's funding comes from its subscribers on fantia, so you can help them by subbing!

Even this tankobon looks like it was a collection of the chapters and stories published originally in different places and then self-published by the author (which if anyone happens to know where chapters 12 and 13 were published, please give me a heads up so I can tag them)

I'm constantly 8 pages late on Dynasty, but this manga I always read on day 1

I hear you! The trick is to just have 200 tabs of yuri open on your phone

I don't think it's either honestly, her father just seems like an incredibly competent man who wants for people to be treated well so he asks his daughter to make sure that Liane can fit in at the party because while he takes Glamor at her word that they're friends he knows that there is more going on.
I think he's just a concerned dad who wants to make sure his daughter doesn't do something shitty and gently pushes her into the right direction by directly asking her to make sure that Lianne will be okay knowing that she won't refuse him.

If it turns out he's a politician who amassed a ton of power and is popular just by being a generally good dude, it will be the biggest reversal in manga history. I can see now why he's so popular

So there's a subculture where they microdose ayahuasca in Japan? That's pretty metal. And surprising considering how regressive controlled substance handling is there

Volume%203%20bait%20and%20switch

Heh, that was a joke that volume 3 isn't remotely yuri-focused even though everyone thought it was going to be about family yuri fun times. Look at that cover! You know what's not on the cover? Political espionage and sci fi, that's not what's on that cover.

I wonder if the first night chapter and the other bonus chapters will get drawn and stuff?
Or is it just gonna be the main story?

Yuri Hime likely only has rights to the visual novel, which did not have the NSFW bonus material. You never know, though.

And ye gods, what sort of dinosaurs were roaming around here? An aquatic t-rex with preying mantis pincers?! actually, can dinosaurs even be canon? I guess if they're contemporary monsters, but not if they're an earlier period/age?

Lmao it's gonna be like that trope where the kiss gets interrupted by a phone or somethings, but it'll be an angry mob of peasants with guillotines instead

It'll be The Spanish Inquisition and they'll be shouting "Confess! Confess!"

Is this gonna be angsty? I don’t think reading things that make me cry

The comedy tag is there for a reason ;) But anyway, rest assured that there won't be anything angsty in this one.

This one is so much fun! Thanks for all your hard work on it

If they're both nearsighted, using the glasses of someone who's less nearsighted than you should still help somewhat, right?

Yeah, it'd help a bit and probably be a huge epiphany, but if you just slap on an incorrect prescription when your eyes are this bad, it's going to be really disorienting and you're still going to be mega squinting. It just means they really do have about the same prescription, which makes sense that the MC could tell Ichiki's eyes were just as bad as hers

Doesn't stop this from being cute as hell

Yes, that's why people can still wear the same glasses long after their eyes have diverged from their original prescription. It's not ideal, but it's still way better than going without them at all.

I think the difference between putting on glasses having never worn them before and wearing out an old prescription is like the difference between a frog jumping out of a pot of boiling water after being dropped in it versus sitting in a pot that's been brought to boil.

What does Kei know? Has she always known, way back since they flipped hair lengths? Is Kei a friend-zoning monster, or is Yokoe a fuckboy? Is Yatsude really going to stand for this?

Honestly I think Kei knows, but is trying her hardest to ignore it and forget that she knows because it makes her uncomfortable.

As far as the manga frames it, this is the tried and true (at this point, 50 years of yuri?) girl A loves girl B, and all along it turns out that girl B loves girl A. Assuming that all of the ambiguous frames of Kei seeing through Yokoe means Kei was into her all along. We're just along for the ride on the original yuri storyline, School Zone Girls just does it so much better

Put another way, Kei is telling Yokoe to not change. Maybe I’m reading too much into this but the whole scene kinda reminds me of Bloom Into You when Touko would always tell Yuu not to change.

Yeah, I got the same vibe there. And the classic manga writing where one character knows something and is about to say it but decides not to really isn't helping.

What does Kei know? Has she always known, way back since they flipped hair lengths? Is Kei a friend-zoning monster, or is Yokoe a fuckboy? Is Yatsude really going to stand for this?

Or it's like you said in your first part and it could just be, in a roundabout way, Kei encouraging Yokoe to be herself to be more open and honest

It technically ran for three years, we were luckily spared the release hell of something like that ghost kaiju island yuri story.

Details!,what on Earth is this series?

I totally forget the name and can't find it, but it's that one set on an island that comes out quarterly with like ten pages a chapter. There's a monster or spirit or something sealed on the island, a transfer student, some mean girl characters. It seemed at first like the MC was a ghost.... Ah! Kaijuu Iro no Shima

Not much left now, think it was 2 extras with 4 and 20 pages respectively, this was good enough either way

Was that just for the end of the series or until they're caught up with the raws? Is it possible another chapter will come in Galette meets 17 or 18, or are the extras clearly post-story material?

This was a nice ride so it's a bit sad to hear it's ending soon.

I for one am devastated that this site isn't about the Dynasty Warriors tie-in video game of the hit 1981 science fiction horror film, Scanners

I would pay a lot of money for such a game, although I'm upset that there isn't any Scanners yuri on the site. I feel like that's right up Dowman Sayman's alley.

Big ups to the Steve Miller Band for this series though. It's pretty c o o l

I'm sure there's a clever Ursula K. Le Guin thing going on here with the hand-holding, but what is it?

when I was little, I always dreamed of being a wizard. But I couldn't fly on a broom.

Real talk. Who else here tried to fly after watching DBZ?

You have to give better arguments than "They don't have Itou Hachi works" to convince me, Yen press "censor" those stories because it's lolicon and it probably clash with IRL laws in western countries.

Why did you put quotes around censor, no one else said "censor". If there were actually laws against it that would be censorship

There are laws. It's the PROTECT Act. It's not surprising a publisher would decide not to risk violating it and precedent on the law means loli works could go either way in court.

that "too" in "you want to become a woman too, don't you" is interesting to me to say the least, I wonder how this is going to continue

now this might be a stretch but hear me out, what if,

Trans Sakuma.

If her long term fiance dumped her after learning she's trans that might be a good explanation...

That'd be one hell of a twist! Might even cause a mass panic.

Although it ignores the sentence flow from the previous panel where the "but..." ties Sakuma's statement to the baseball talk. I'm pretty excited to see where the next chapter goes either way. I wonder if Kita's explored their identity yet or not, or if Sakuma just set up some introspection

Awwwww yeah, always a fan of sound effects that trend toward sounds rather than descriptions! I suggest changing -ing sfx to verbs as well to get that sound effect feeling

I was worried from the first chapter that this was going to be a sort of bildungsroman where The Iron Lady who shirks her cultural expectations was going to be pulled back in line to be the sort of cute woman her colleagues expect her to be through her experiences with this mysterious boy. But hey, chapter 2 isn't going in that direction, it seems to be more about building positive relationships.

Counterpoint: the latest two ero sci-fi tankobon were very plot heavy, character-driven (a rarity by any fiction writing standards), have an oddly dense amount of world-building, and were his most graphic/depraved works to date.

The official Vampeerz will be interesting. It doesn't technically violate the PROTECT act, but it comes damn close and is only a dash of legal precedent away. Not that that's stopped publishers before

I don't quite understand the 5th story can someone explain?

Looks like Momiji is in the after life and Aya wants to get there but cannot. Only a feather crossed over, and Momiji welcomes it as if it were Aya. "Welcome back" might have been better as "good to see you again"
