These doujins get more and more rapey.

It is not the doujin that changed but the active readership on Dynasty. ;)

Well that is a nice Christmas present. A cute, diabetes causing adult life story! I like how there is literally no issue of them being girls. Nobody is asking questions despite the fact Maki's coworkers know about it.

Characters taking death so well is...........somewhat disturbing.

Well joining Madokami's yuri heaven is kinda nice.

Maki's Mother x Kotori's Mother

But aren't they just Class S? Gay for each other in school but then getting married?

You know what would be hilarious? If the manga goes on like this for another year (in their time), just showing us this level of subtext, but not enough for us to consider the Yuri tag, but then Ran drops this sucker of a line: "So we've been dating for a year now..."

BOOM.

I actually wouldn't like that. I don't want to read a mange where their relationship is hidden from the reader all the time.

Ugh... I somehow have a really bad feeling about it now... I understand why Ran would want to be the mediator between Keiko and her mum, but she really plays with fire here, in my opinion. Keiko isn't even resolved about her relationship with Ran yet. So pressing Keiko with two relationships at the same time - this might really turn out painful to read... Ran should stabilize her relationship with senpai first, and only afterwards try to deal with Keiko's mum. I mean we should see the couple kiss, and we should see Keiko being physically aroused by that. Up till now she was clearly happy mentally to have Ran by her side, but being comfortable of being next to each other, even physically, doesn't mean the desire for sex. And no, that boobplay on the Christmas party was not enough of a proof!

The panties service starts getting really annoying if it's clearly only done for the readers. It should be the service for Keiko in the first hand! Yet Ran is such a cutie, HNNNG... and a gothic lolita cosplay with pigtails... oh my... Ah Keiko, Keiko! How could you not kiss her lying so defencelessly in the snow? How could you not hug her tightly when she felt cold? Keiko's really... really ultrashy and embarrassed about Ran... So just a handhold for now... Agh, I really-really hope that it's just my cold that makes me pessimistic and a bit depressive today. I really secretly hoped for a kiss this chapter, to be honest. Even if another side's asleep, even if on a cheek or in the forehead... But apparently I'm asking for too much.

And no more stretches! Hope it's not a foreshadowing of a broken relationship...

I think you read WAY too much into the manga. It is not yuri, yet. Their are NOT in a romantic relationship.

Man, this story. I love the art but I found the plot pretty terrible. Though I suppose you're not (really) reading it for the story ha ha ha.

I kinda wonder why people do not like the story. It isn't any different from a lot of the yuri oneshots on this page.

Before reading it: Is the Yuri tag accurate? Just asking since there have been some bad gender bend manga recently...

Its well done, and ends up fairly happy (the 2nd to last page seems to be a flash back?) but its still OTT aaangst- all the characters were OOC i think- I just cant see it going down like this- I think they'd all stay together - a local college commute like Kagami's older sisters do would seem most likely - except Miyuki was going to go to a medical school if i remember?

I dont think it needs a depressing as fuck tag since they get together and presumably life gets a lot better for them both.

It is that weird thing in manga/anime where college means you life is fucking over. You will never see your friends again because phones or email apparently does not exist for college students.

I wonder if those two are going to make any progress in the third season. Yeah, it's unlikely (to put it mildly), but it seems to me they've already stretched the subtext to the point where I don't know that the term can be applied anymore. Miku's song in the second season was explicitly a love song to Hibiki, for crying out loud.

Her whole Symphogear is literally powered by love. They outright said so in the show.

Exactly that should have happened in them manga. Well without the sex obviously. It is very heartbreaking that Yui never even once called or wrote Azunyan after she went to college...

Did you read the manga after graduation? check these:

They do talk Yui didn't want to see her or else she would be able to "hold back" and Azusa would have gotten sad after separating again, Azusa is the same she really wanted to see her. Honestly I'm probably over-analyzing it but this is implied yuri right there.

That is just stupid. Why did the author tried so hard to find reasons for them NOT to visit Azusa?

So, what kind of drama happens next? Their mother catching them so intimate and sending one of them into the USA?

Isn't that the interview where both VAs say that Fate would be Nanoha's husband?

And they really do act like an family in Vivid. There is no denying it. Yuuno has been reduced to a 4 panel cameon character...

Just a heads-up guys, there's an omake just released that really ups the Yuri (played for laughs of course but is worth seeing)

All the Neptunia girls are extremely gay anyway. Sometimes it is played for laughs, sometimes fore cuteness.

A great Doujin! Thanks for all the hard work for translating it!

But one thing that annoys me... http://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/happy_wedding_vacation#5 once again Japan thinks that you have separate all ties when you graduate.

It always baffles me how an idol show manages to have better action sequences than some actual action oriented series.

Budget. Idol shows normally make some good money and get a higher budget.

Is that all for now? I know the next chapters are going to be bad but at least the reactions in the comment sections are going to make up for it...

Interesting that her senpai dates a girl after highschool. Makes the whole "gay till graduation" meaningless.

I wonder why all the characters in anime and manga are always basically slaves to their parents. Do those authors even know how teenagers can react?

Different teens react erm.... dis-similarly. It can be generalized but ya know... different backgrounds and all that shit...

Of course but...when was the last time you saw an anime character actually stand up against her parents? It is extremely rare. Why? Easy drama.

To be fair, if you take anime and mangas as an example of the "typical japanese family", you end up with that :
-it's common for the childs to live by themselves, with never seeing or getting news from their parents.
-Said parents, if not absent, usually let their kids do as they please, without interfering much with their lives.
-Many parents will eagerly encourage their kids (mostly their sons) to have sex with some girl, or at least be perfectly fine with it.

And I'll stop there because I could keep going for a while. XD

No, seriously, families in manga & anime are rarely depicted in an accurate way, because many of them have teenagers as protagonist and having meddling parents in a non-comical way would get in the way of the story.

I mean, just imagine that in your typical anime : "Mom, dad, I need to go save the world !" "Did you do your homework ?" "But moooom, the world is in danger !" "yeah, yeah, you used that one last time already. Go back to your room and you better finish them properly this time !" worldsplosion!

That is why it is pointless to add real life comparison ;)

It is obvious why parents are often absent in manga. It would over complicate things. Nobody would want to read 10 chapters about the son discussing the things with his parents...

Kujou.. maybe you can't understand this, but confessing to someone after being mean to them would never works. After what you did, it wont be strange for Tomoe to hates you for the rest of her life.

Or punch your in the face. I kinda really want to see that...

You also forgot: different culture, different (expected) family dynamics.

A cheap excuse. Japan is a bit different but it is not as cliche as in anime/manga.
