Tango in its purest form are danced by two men, alternating between lead and follow, with the "couple" actually fighting against each other.

Not that this has anything to do with what we would expect Japanese school children to be dancing, so if your critique is about realism you've wandered rather far afield.

19? Meh, whatever. When I started dating my wife I was, hmmm, 26 living in a house where I split the rent with a group of friends and she was 41 with three kids. It was fine. It was much better than fine, actually.

You forgot the yuri classic date at the aquarium ;)

The date at the aquarium is a classic, but it tends to be more like a date for realizing and increasing feelings, getting closer, "it's gonna happen soon" kind of stuff. Or it's the sweet first date AFTER the confession. But it's rarely the actual date where the confession happens.

Ngl I was impressed how the artist didn't give her gravity defying perfectly centered breasts when she was lying down.

Point.

Honestly, when she asked where the pressure point would be I actually thought "Well of course, the pressure point for that is between the legs . . . Yeah, no way will she try that on!"
My face when she actually went for it . . .

OK so there's this page at the end of the chapter with fan art from a contest, and I just wanted to say I love the Honourable Mention. I had to zoom in a bit to see the Villainess System options, but they were perfect.

These two are allegedly 20. They sure don't act like it.

Reading this is awkward because the way the author sets it up is that they're children. I know I'm a weird case, but I didn't have physical sensations until I started progesterone when I was 21. So like...this is just weird.

I noped out when they said they are “children” whatever stupid fetish the author has I’m not bloody interested

I'm pretty sure they just meant they're not technically past whatever Japan considers age of majority. It's never been clear just how old those two are, but old enough to know something about being an auto mechanic if I remember right. But it's certainly not out of character for either of them to start concentrating on some irrelevant technicality.

That said, I don't totally buy this. There's something about it that doesn't seem like them. I feel like the aggressor/reluctant dynamic doesn't suit them. I feel like if those two ever did stuff, they'd be half the time talking about totally separate stuff, and half the time being like "OK, what about this? Does this do something?"

Certainly truth in advertising--as promised, the tenant is indeed flirty. And then some.

Very chill. I can work with this.

So, hang on, the sixth grader is suggesting a threesome?
. . . Actually, I guess that's about par for the course for some of the yuri I've been reading lately . . .

So is there anywhere outside of Japan where the idea of putting soup in a thermos is unconventional enough for that to be a joke?

if I were Jun I'd just say "Freeze all motor functions. Analysis: are you a sex robot?" but I guess I'm just different

It wouldn't work, though. Why would she obey? She doesn't seem to be an Asimov Three Laws robot--her obedience is much more master-specific.

This feels like it's part of some bigger, slice-of-life-ish thing. It probably isn't, it just kind of gives off that vibe. Sort of comfy-like.

It's funny, so often I see stories about middle school kids and they look like they're in high school (not to mention that particular one where the grade school girl looks like she's in college).
Here, we have high school seniors headed to college and they look like they're 10-12.

Not that I mind, I just found it an interesting contrast.

At least she apologized and admitted that she panicked. Doesn't excuse her, but it's a step. She still doesn't see any issue with betting her future on a race, though.

To be fair, she's an athlete. Betting her future on races is her life.

That was lovely.

Um, does anyone else find it weird that you identify black-tailed gulls by their beaks and legs because all the other gulls with different names have black tails too?

Why Mitsuki take off her glasses when reading on her phone?
presbyopia in her age?

Could get dramatic if so. Next there'll be an Astigmatist showing up, and you know the Astigmatists are always having doctrinal wars with the Presbyopians.

The mask--was that a Sasameki Koto reference?!

did i miss something it feels like mask totally changed how she regards kaoru out of no where

Wellll, she's always used an odd mixture of exaggerated, formalized and somewhat archaically phrased respect on one hand with rejection and scorn on the other. But the latter tends to mostly show up when Kaoru's coming on to her and/or seeming insincere. It's just that that's a lot of the time, so we don't often see how mask acts when Kaoru's not being a pain.

This chapter cracked me up something fierce. It's always more of a shock when a normally naturalistic comic has a surreal moment.

So why would you call your breasts "onii-chan"?
. . . That's not it? But she said--
