I actually like the story. Contrary to what other people have said, the plot feels whole and complete despite being only 10 chapters. Both women grew from the relationship, both understood what they want and stayed true to it, and them moving on with life with no regrets to what could have been. This is one of the stories that gets tiring and turns into a convoluted mess when you prolong the narrative (I'm looking at you, Domestic Girlfriend), which is why I think it's a perfect ending for both of them.

I agree with this. maybe a bit more condensed than I would be happiest with, but everything in the story is more mature and reasonable than you'd expect from such a premise. it's certainly quite the colorful way to realize your engagement isn't right for you lmao. I think it leaned well into the importance of communicating, ultimately I was satisfied after reading

I know it was supposed to be sad but I couldn't help but laugh at the shooting star scene.

you'd think star fragments wouldn't strike the same thing twice but it came for that android like she owed it money

"I've done more with less" stopp lmao, she's CLEARLY going to help make her pastry zoo dream come true, it's written in the stars! that's so romantic :') ~True Love~

[completely off topic, but @Aunt_Rhody, is that dahyun in your pfp by any chance??]

yep, the one and only queen dubu <3 I saw someone say "just like a doughnut" in another comment and I chuckled

Bro lots of people on Dynasty hates aces seems like. Everytime they appear it's always a trainwreck in the comments. Empathy isn't in abundance around here I guess.

I think responses would be much different if the story didn't take such a subtle route with it, which isn't to say I find that a bad thing. I'm going to enjoy re-reading this now knowing the resolution seems to be an ace couple, but upon first read rather than having no empathy perhaps it's that people like me empathized according to our own experiences first and foremost. Which is natural, but leads to anticipating something that didn't come. Ideally I would love to see 1 to 3 chapters more going into their new dynamic, as the abrupt end really does this relationship development no favors, specifically for readers to empathize better with something they may find unfamiliar. Sorry to ramble, I'm just making a case for it not being outright hate against aces.

Personally I'm happy with the ending, aside from it feeling too quick. I'm always a sucker for a story of two people bettering each other's lives regardless of the relationship type.

very nice feeling in this, getting off the train unintentionally and experiencing something you never would have before, that is overlooked every day even. right place right time but with a significant yet unrelated reason, I like that. and she even thanks her for it, so sweet

kowai

tense

Claire calling her Rei in her head but still commoner out loud is so cute, Claire-sama is cute!

Okay you made me reread the chapter and I don't see it occuring, which panel is it?

Page 3, panel 3

Isn't this just prince Rodd speaking in a flashback by Claire?

I absolutely read that page wrong lol. my mistake

cute

really good two shot, my style

Claire calling her Rei in her head but still commoner out loud is so cute, Claire-sama is cute!

If I follow correctly, in this Japan, the phone number for the police is too complicated to type from memory, and rather than a dispatcher you are auto-routed to the nearest officer's smartphone?

that'd be neat, but imagine the mess that would be in high crime areas lol. I figure she had the personal/work number of the cop since he was in charge of her ongoing case

uwaaa the heroine is scary~ I hope we get to see more of that, I dig it

gay. the character designs are totally my style too, very cute

ew, they're adorable

this is really nice

yaay, no more school. happy end

very cute, requiring impractical shoes for work is barbaric

I liked it. It feels like they built a solid foundation for a lifelong relationship and that's hella romantic, yuri or no. Also I completely forgot the name to this and am glad I was able to find it by searching "not lizard"

I know plenty of people who get emotional support from their friends rather than their lover/spouse.

This is a case where she considers the emotional support friend to be a romantic rival, though. There's an issue with her believing she understands Asahi's feelings better than Asahi herself, even if it's presented as true in the text, but being insecure to the tune of feeling second best isn't a good foundation at all. I think she was pretty mature to walk away.

cute

Man, am I glad that the jealousy/miscommunication arc is over! I'm looking forward to how Yamada and Kase's relationship grows from here on out.

Inb4 Kase jogs by on a whim, notices Yamada being lured behind the shed by an old man/clown, misunderstands everything in a fit of jealousy, and throws something heavy at the poor guy.

Chapter 24: Jail Time and Kase-san (Part 1)

I bet it's not her finger

stupidly amazing ending line
