There's a metaphor somewhere in here with the bully boy and the more criminal older boys, but I cannot find a proper way to express it.

I feel bad that he's a latchkey kid, but I agree with everyone else that bullying isn't a cute, fluffy expression of a crush. The whole implication of his story is that his parents should pay more attention to him, after all.

'Megumi' says 'Mr. Fox' is there to protect her but the little dingus never even thinks for a second that 'she' means against him, too. Whoosh.

The subtext flew over my head this chapter; I thought they were just having a cute drinky winky sesh with their friend over video call.

I am woefully out of the loop on what is going on here, but it's gonna get real scary real fast from the vibes we have so far. The girls themselves have really cute designs!

lol this is fun

^ :D

Hope it doesn't get sad...

This manga has such a soothing feel to it. It may be about food, but it's also about finally meeting that one special person who actually enjoys and wants to spend time with you.

Thanks!

Mmm comfy.

... Wait so they just dont tell us what happened between Watanabe and her ex????????????????????????????? For tired festival antics?????????????? :(

I like the setting of this, and the art is good, but the story continues to be one of the most frustrating things I read on this site, and it's entirely because of Shion. She really is the worst, but hey, at least she realizes it?

Don't you know? She's 'complex.'

The ol' 'if I can't have your cake as well as mine, I'll tell you your cake is poison' ploy.

This is why you don't play games with your S.O.; why open your relationship up to yet another avenue for problems? Why add another thing to fight over?

Ahhh... Slice of lifey.

Thank you for this surprise treat!! I cannot wait for the next one...

The art is so pleasing and the angst is soft yet distinct.

This is so wholesome

Did you see Risa? She looked really, really happy in that embrace. Practically drooling. I think she'll be fine. She's got two suitors already.

But we will never see how/if anything turns out for her bc it's Repression Rebecca and Can't Take a Hint Tammy's love story.

After finding out Hiroko's tragic past... She still needs to work on herself before she even thinks abour a relationship, but we all know she won't, and Risa still deserves her own love interest and not to just be a device to make the inevitable pairing off occur, though once again we all know she won't. No one but the main pairing may find happiness, as is the law.

This is so cool!! Poor granny, dang Reimu :'(

At least her lack of taste is explained instead of just confusing. Hopefully her cooking will improve as the series goes on!

If Hiroko really wanted Ayaka to stay away, she could stop jerking around with her emotions like this. :/ I feel like Hiroko just enjoys hurting other women, be it by loving and leaving them in the lesbian bar or insisting on both maintaining this facade and giving Ayaka the wrong idea about her. Mayne not enjoys, but she is a cowardly and weak person at heart who has no courage to either be honest or commit to the lie (actually get married so her beard can protect her closet key).

I heard someone say she deserves love even with her damage, and she does but her first steps should be finding a new job where she can live out of the closet and leave women, espeically Ayaka alone. This is advice for anyone reading: Sort out your life before seeking romance or sex unless you have your lies properly backed up and sorted out and ESPECIALLY don't keep being needlesly affectionate toward someome after making a big deal out of rejecting them. No amount of past trauma allows you to drag others into your drama especially if you insist on being untruthful.

A freezing cold take, given that most everybody in this thread but me agrees with you.

Don't worry, Main Character always wins the girl at the end. ;D The rest of us just really wish that wasn't the case!

Still no Risa storyline. :'(

This is interesting! Hope that comedy tag holds

I find myself rooting for the co worker more than Hiroko. Even though it won't be endgame I've never experienced an inner conflict with the main ship in a yuri manga.

I super hope the author gives Risa some attention once the main couple finally forms. As you say, unlikely but Risa is just so darn likable I want to see her happy.

A real breath of fresh air! And so cute~

What if the joke is that they both end up with different women at the end of the series? They could court and get with entitely different people with the time they waste together. (Joking, but am I not right a little?)

I know it wont happen, but I want Risa to get her own love interest so baddddd ☠︎︎
