Twitter Extra 2 - "Ben-To" flashbacks intensifies

Lol weird how they both happened to be at the same time in that grocery shop and the little sister seemed to immediately recognize Uno from the dropped ID

I mean they live in the same neigborhood on a day off. It's not unlikely to meet while shopping.
And I don't think she recognized Uno.

After "I'm Getting Married", the Het tag seems kinda unneccessary in this one since we never even see them kiss.

Then there shouldn't be a Yuri tag too. Because it isn't.

Like i don't know ? Maybe if you didn't treat her like shit and didn't try to kill her multiples times she would have consider reach your hand. It's the trope of "I don't confess for a long time for x reasons and get sad when my crush found someone she love" push to an extreme and it's the same conclusion for me everytime, if you don't confess when you had the chance, you can't get upset you lose.
Anyway, what was the point of the antioids and X and all the villains things anyway ? Seem clear that the generals don't like fighting that much and even X seem to do all this shit purely to get Honey back now. What is even explain if there were heroes before Rabbit ? If yes what happen to them and if no then, what exactly guaranted the peace before ?

? The story is there pretty clear?
Nothing. But after their arrival on earth they created Rapid Rabbit in their try to make more antinoids. "They not like to fight" - first, you don't have to like your job. 2nd, the story explains that too, their arrival on earth changed Kyouka & Cool.

Isn't this almost all X's fault anyway for saying Honey was fired?

Nah not really, the change started already when Honey looked at Hayates real face.

«You mustn't follow any strangers!»

Honey was worried about what could happen to Hayate going out alone, alright... but what's with this kindergarten level of advice? lolol

Well, she followed strangers, so It was solid well know advice.

X is rapidly becoming my favorite character. Has absolutely nothing to do with her coat being cut off just enough to show off those glamorous legs.

Kyouka isn't that incompetent actually. In a 1 v 1 she would have beaten Rapid Rabbit... like pretty much any enemy would. RR is really carried by Honey more than anything lol

True, she must have had back pain from carrying that much - and those big titties.

I was going to do a snarky post about how their relationship will never last because it started with blackmail, but instead I’m just reminding everyone of the irony that this planet-sized ball of cotton-candy fluff started with the Blackmail tag.

It kind of felt like the author wasn't quite sure where they wanted to take the first half of this manga and tried a few different things to see what worked. But in the end the only idea with staying power turned out to be "more fluff." And I'm okay with that.

Or it was just was the Author planned, I mean because it started with "blackmail" doesn't mean it have to stay like this or have to turn dark.

A mircowave can also have an oven, especially in Japan I heared it's a common thing because lack of space.

I honestly think this manga need to get chopped. Once Sora's mom made a deal with her and left for Hokkaido, there is no plot or story that makes the manga moves. So one of course will look at secondary characters being developed. Wakana and Yuina simply are not convincing. Also this happens shortly after Wakana run into her crush. This is totally not realistic the way that arc goes. Then how come Yuina would going out with Wakana supposedly because Wakana and her crush did not work out as it is actually a one sided love by Wakata. For one thing her crush can be heterosexual so the entire arc becomes useless. Yuina and Wakana should have been dating quite earlier. Now it looks like the mangaka does not know what to do, so everything including the kitchen sink are thrown into the story, but unfortunately it does not work,. However I think it is the mangaka's "fault". Whatever happened to Egawa? We never have seen her since the cultural festival.

So who is really the lonely girl? Sora or Wakana or someone else?

Bruh, just don't read it. It's like the 5th from you like this.

Youre all saying its forced when ive been seeing them having something since ch 10...of course they wont give you the focus since theyre only a side character but if you see the tiny moments that was put in every chapter youll know that it wasnt forced...

So this extra chapter happened before the christmas sleepover...now what did they do on their sleepover....

One or two chapter with focus on them wouldn't have hurt that much. Here we got an extra just to explain and we have to roll with it. Nothing more.
Like i'm sorry but that doesn't really roll for me. Was there a need for them to be together ? Feel like they are a couple because the author needed a side couple. I don't hate them being a couple but it feel very underwhelming. That's kinda what happen when you continue after you put your main pairing together, you either put wholesome moments OR you bring a possibly unneeded side couple just to extent a bit the manga because you can't write 10 SOL chapters on the main couple.

Bruh, they had like since Chapter 10 a good chemistry and it was defintely planned since then and the extra chapter? It was enough to explain it there wasn't much to it, because nothing much happened between them in the month since she said those words.

Bruh.. that was so disgustingly forced then again Sora's relationship started with a kiss after all.
Not enjoying this as much as I used to

Forced? She literally asked for it?
Or what do you think she meant with "why don't you find out?"

This manga is already leagues above most of its contemporaries simply for continuing past the "And they got together" part. As someone who's read hundreds, probably thousands of yuri works, I'm super thirsty of works that explore what its like for the main couple AFTER they've overcome their trials and tribulations.

And I don't care if its mundane lovey dovey shit. I LIVE for yuri lovey-dovey shit.

Amen.

These questions need to be asked.
Top or bottom?

I could see this one go either way, but I think Sora may want Ayaka to take the initiative.

Anyway, I think they're forgetting two very important things that come after kissing:

Lots of cuddling and (spoiler because it's just so lewd) unprotected handholding.

But they did that already even interlocked in Public!

Chapter 14 - Sora & Haena flashbacks intensifies~

Wow I'm not sure if everybody acting like their all ticked off are just trolling or being serious. Frankly so far so good, and where it is written that a story has to end with romance in order to be good?

The story is still going to end with romance, though? This was simply done to artifically draw the resolution out for longer, not to get to a different ending.

I'm very serious about it ruining the manga for me - this trope, along with misunderstood confessions ("I love you and want to spend the rest of my life with you!" "Wow, she really loves me as a friend, huh"), interrupted confessions (phone calls, people barging in), etc. - all of these plot devices have been used a thousand times by yuri mangaka and I'm absolutely sick of seeing them.

That's not to say that all tropes are inherently bad (this manga was very heavy on them in all regards, but I didn't mind). But this particular trope serves no positive value to the story. It's just a hacky way of delaying the climax when the author is too bad at writing to think of a legitimate way to extend the story that feels natural. And that's really the problem - it's very, very unnatural. It breaks suspension of disbelief and just feels so fake.

I've read some 2000 pages of the Adachi and Shimamura light novel, and it took a very, very long time to get to a confession. But I was fine with that because the story felt real the entire time. The author handled the long build-up to a confession in a very relateable way that felt like it could happen in real life the entire time. But this trope of girls blurting out "I have something important to tell you... I really want to be friends!!!" in a romantic atmosphere doesn't have one iota of believability to it. You can tell the author chose to write this dialogue because they didn't have any ideas for how to continue, not because it was the natural way for dialogue to flow, not because it was the best way to continue the narrative.

Nah, it was clear even before the chapter that she won't confess because she wasn't aware of her feelings. And also the important thing to tell her was the apologize, and not the friend thing.

Eughhhhhh, I never liked the premise of this manga where the kissing is only happening for other motives but it kinda makes it worse that loner liked girl the whole time and saw her chance to strike by blackmail to force intimacy. If this wasn't mangaland there definitely would be some psycho vibes.

Kinda feeling like this, the blackmail is already bad enough as is, the stalker-ish years long crush wasn't really needed.

Stalker-ish!? Okayyy.

Ah yes, another appearance of the "you will definitely get sick from walking in the rain" syndrome that all manga/anime characters seem to share. Well at least it was not just that but also--

Sudden thunderstorm is always the best kind of wingman.

Yeah, exactly.

Yeah because you won't sick when you are wet in the cold for over 20min ~ how we humans become sick then!?

Well, neither case is actual blackmail. Blackmail is "do X or I'll do Y!" (ie out you as gay, not write a recommendation for you, give a crappy grades, ...). Both are cases of bribery. "Do X and I'll do Y for you!" (get her to come to school and you get a recommendation; get yuri with me and I'll come to school for you).

I think you missed the part where Honda implies she will tell everyone that she has a shady deal with the teacher.
"Don't worry I won't tell anyone and even come to school, but in exchange let me kiss you." The first half is blackmail.

Is it? She never said that there are repercussions if she don't does that.

So far, I can only see that every single person in this story is an asshole (except perhaps the parents).

Whole humanity are as*holes then.
It's in the human nature that everyone wants the best for themself.

main character gets blackmailed by teacher
Oh, is that where the blackmail comes from?

main character also gets blackmailed by other student
...nevermind.

Is it really blackmail?
The teacher offers her a deal, get the girl to school / get a recommendation.
And Sora never said (chapter 01) that she will expose her if she doesn't make what she wants.

Solid ending all around but we never found out if kokeshi and the elf were banging and that's inexcusable

I think it was pretty clear that she bangs almost all the girls. Why doesn't the series have a harem tag ??

Wowah mary, hope we at least get to see the other girl get her "payment" so to say, else it'll be just watching her get toyed with

Don't think so, it plays in high school and in college Marie is single.
