As far as angst goes, this was mild.

Imagine if the parents had sent those Lobsters home intending them to be pets

Reminds me of that one Hachi oneshot.

I can't get over how amazingly mature everyone involved was from start to finish. Ex-Husband's a champion through and through. Some might not like it for the lack of a visible conflict, but I loved how it just smoothly went through the steps and just delivered the happy end without any fillers.

For those wondering...

Loud KugiRie noises.

This is about as honest about being reprehensible as Itou Hachi's riskier works.

This needs the Wholesome tag.

Fitting, considering Azaka's nature.

i like that she actually asks for consent.

It is sad that this is a thing we note as a positive side of the oneshot.

I have bad vibes from this.

Pg 8.

have you maybe rubbed your nipples on one of your friends?

dat translation

That's TOTALLY what normal friends do, right? XDD LOL

Handshakes are SO oldschool.

Wait ..... you guys haven't done that with your friends ?

I have...

I'm considering to do it.

Umm, I think it's taking a wrong turn...

There are no wrong turns on this road.

I need to brainbleach this out of my memory and discover this anew when it's finished after humanity colonizes Mars to escape robot-controlled Earth.

I like that it skipped all the crappy drama from the people at her school gossiping about her and moved straight to the action. Don't give me annoying hubbub from the crowd, I read this stuff to see happy people in love.

This kinda reminds me of Hachigatsu Kokonoka, minus the yandere faces (and the protagonist being a girl).

Can someone explain this to me? Did I get baited into reading yet another useless unrequited love story like an idiot?

I need more.

At least it wasn't a "they were dating" development, leaving the fake airhead alone.

The junior should at least know that the waiter is a girl in drag, right? I mean I would think that it would be made clear that it is a crossdressing cafe.

maybe, cuz why would she's entering a crossdress cafe without her knowing it

You would think the junior would know it's a crisscrossing cafe, but I worked at a hobby gaming shop and people walked in by mistake all of the time. They had no clue what we sold, despite walking through the door marked Phoenix Games in red letters right at eye level. My boss even had an old lady ask him where we kept our bananas.

In this case though, her sister works there too. She was there to deliver something.

I hope they will

Huh! I think this is the first isekai I've read where the reincarnate co-exists with her host. It's usually a sorta 'overwrite' thing.

I know of two others at least.

Isekai Soudouki has a samurai and a modern otaku act as the cheerleading squad for the main character, who is the native soul of the body and is in control (aside from the samurai occasionally taking over for stronger enemies).

There is also Two As One Princess, in which the protagonist is possessing a girl and they basically travel around the world doing isekai stuff. It's marked as gender bender and shoujo ai, but given that there is only one body and one of the two is a sexless ghost (uses female mannerisms early on to reassure the little girl he possesses, not sure about after that cuz I stopped reading after a while).

I don't understand why the mangaka is saying she wanted to write a work like NTR. This story is nothing like NTR. This is just a predator going after prey and the prey's friend finds out and does nothing. In NTR, there are emotional reasons for why one goes after the other sexually, but it isn't as a predator. And in the ending of NTR, both girls finally realize their real feelings for each other and start going out. This is just an inexperienced girl caught up in a predators lies and is just her plaything until she is done using her. The playthings friend finds out she is keeping the relationship secret from her and just does not confront her or say anything to her, she goes home and masterbates. It is just a story of 3 f'd up girls, that's all. You see this story written a thousand times over, nothing new or interesting here. The characters are wooden and the plot cliché. Please don't even think of comparing it to NTR, they are not even in the same universe.

NTR stands for Netorare, a subvariant of cuckold fetish, in which the love interest of the pov character gets taken from them, usually resulting in emotional damage to the pov character.

The manga by Kodama Naoko, which has NTR in the title, is not a NTR work. I understand that you were confused, but that's not it.

No matter which way the die falls, I am going to be depressed. I have a hole in my gut from all the "A loved B for years, but could not confess due to fear/anxiety and in the end gets left with nothing but misery because B was taken by someone else" oneshots, but I also want Hinako to get a W in life. It's a heartbreak either way and I just can't look forward to seeing the end like this.

I could not even finish it because I hated the "act like you're interested in someone else" trope just eats into my gut every time I see it. It's just too close to netorare for me and the last time I made the mistake of reading one of those, I am literally still depressed.

ohh I like this one, where I find my kaya? (≧◡≦)

update about this cuz is funny (and sad)
i successful find my kaya, but then a year later she broke with me, so yea i am all alone again

There’s nothing wrong with being alone!

It's not wrong, but it can get damn lonely.

Also, I feel like this is a lesson in "actions might speak louder than words, but sometimes without words, your actions get mistranslated". Some things just need to said.

Every time I see a work without angst and drama, my hope in the written world is restored a bit.

In the long run, the blonde girl will be the one that gets hurt. I mean, the other clearly has a BF, why keep clinging on the past her when you can already tell she's not like you? God, this is why i dont like people who do what their hearts tell, not what their brains tell. Weakling basically.

Spoken like someone who was never in a position of weakness. I guess that weak people don't deserve to be happy.
