Ugh, fuck that Sakaki dude... he should just die already.

awww, Sakaki isn't even the problem now :-(

Ume and Natsuki are at an impasse. Ume is trying to make sure no trouble comes to her sister, and Nastuki is either completely oblivious to her situation or does not give a rat's a$$ what anyone thinks. something is going to have to give and Mom getting hurt is that give.

I read above how in anime and manga parents are used as plot devices, but why not force Nastuki and Ume to face one another at the point of conflict, school? it seems not to be an issue at home or maybe i have misinterpretted Mom's knowing look ( http://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/happy_end_ch07#3)?

Truth be told we'd require some data to go with our hypothesis ( like a poll ) but alas this cannot be.

TL ; DR We can't stop ourself from wanting to go deeper!

Edit: Just notice this last sentence is sort of... yea

@Evil, just words on a page, but I like where you're going with it.

So it would be interesting to poll public opinion here on Dynasty. i like the idea of drilling deep into the facts, teasing out every last drop of information, and coming to a conclusion. I certainly see no problem in doing that. of course I'm used to fact finding, but I suppose it would need to be a group activity.

that being said, I wonder how hard it would be for the overseers of Dynasty to implement a poll feature so a silly little question like this could be answered?

fair enough . .

i remember this happen to me back then, this girl wanted to get close to me and slept with my friends who i often hangout with.. by the time i realized it and by her confession .. it was already too late and so foolish of her.. the idea is that my friends told her that they can hook her up with me and told her that i'll notice her if she slept with them. .

the girl wasn't too bright, now was she? as to your "friends," can you still count them as such?

Interestingly, my earlier comments about "pure yuri" weren't tied to the reader's gender at all. I can see how it would make sense though, but I don't think it's a 100% correlation.

and it isn't. why did i ask the question? well, for the female posters, I can understand why some would be opposed to toys, so i intentionally did not include them in the question. I also realize that not all male posters would be opposed, but there is always the underlying "ick" factor that many guys bring up (now mind you, the males posters of dynasty are a special breed and as I have learned are well more opened minded than other forums I've been on). however, simple curiosity got the better of me.

hopefully this question has not offended anyone.

thanks OP. as I've gotten older, I've learned that it is usually better not to piss people off unless the outcome is really worth the effort. ;-)

Hmm, speaking of dreams.
Not much yuri, but I just have to share this dream I had once.
I wish I had enough talent to make a full story of it. I saw it quite a long time ago, but still remember most of it.
The dream itself was really like a movie, with characters, changing current PoV, flashbacks and stuff. Too bad I've only seen the first episode ^_^
It was a post-apocalyptic setting where people suddenly got random wishes granted. Including stuff people would never want to actually come true if they had a choice, like "I wish you were dead" said in argument. World got...weird as the result.
It technically had some yuri, but it was Female MC's ex-GF in the past. And it didn't end well, she basically burned alive before Female MC's eyes when the "wishes" came into effect. Oh and Male MC saw that too and blamed himself as he had a crush on Female MC and wanted her GF gone.

hmmm, I like the premise, and you are right, it sounds more movie-ish. try to remember more of the dream. if all else fails, you could post it on some fanfic site.

( nods ) especially the last 2 pages. but it was cute.

until the extra, I really sympathized with the older MC. being in what I assume was a long term relationship only to have your partner leave really sux. but i suppose as the title suggests, it is only a junction from one path in life to another one. more so, I thought it was interesting that Nakamura-sensei kept referring to the rings throughout the story. their symbolism of unity and oneness juxtaposed against a place that literally is an intersection of comings and goings. kinda odd and yet fitting don't you all think?

my original question bordered on rediculous, so lemme be specific. it'd be nice if "this" FAQ were more boilerplate and not mixed up with user request. for example, it might be nice if it were on the main menu or as a sub menu item in the user dropdown.

ya know, I have been reading a lot of protests against toys and I have to ask, how many of these "nos" are from our male posters?

Someone finally asked the Question of Destiny.

umm destiny? I wouldn't quite put it that way. I'm of the mind, 'whatever floats your boat,' but as I've learned, there are quite a few male posters (actually more than I ever imagined) and the thought did cross my mind.

ditto OP. and why the heck did Aoki-san try to condense the story in the first place? ugh, I'd rather pay up for a full volume's worth.

next,

Shiho: you need to get a boyfriend already.

Mamiko: Don't you ever listen? You're the one I like Shiho-chan!
OK then, you be my boyfriend, ermmmm girlfriend... <--- what Mamiko should have said next as she pulls Shiho into her embrace.

ya know, I have been reading a lot of protests against toys and I have to ask, how many of these "nos" are from our male posters?

Why would Emi have stopped Mihashi when she obviously had no idea Mihashi was having the second affair? She was clearly shocked at the pregnancy announcement, assuming that the pregnancy was with the first dude. How was she supposed to even have a clue that this was a possibility? This ain't a fantasy story where she gets visions of the future.

As to the first relationship, love or not Mihashi is in the socially-approved situation in Japan as we're all well aware of. in that context, Emi doesn't really have the "right" to step in unless Mihashi makes a move. But Mihashi has agency of her own and gives no indication she's about to break things off with him.

Expecting Emi to stop Mihashi digging her own hole is unreasonable in this situation.

true, but it half sounds like a lot of the readers want Emi to turn into a knight in shining armor and for her to go "rescue" Mihashi. I suppose if this were more pure romance instead of a "real life" type of situation, I could see that; however, as has been pointed out, Emi was a 3rd party non-participant, so it's none of her business. period.

so I've just noticed that every few months certain posters change their avatars. so does your mood change because you've been influenced by a particular manga or because you keep a time table for changing your avatar?

BTW, this question is because I noticed Kyonne changed avatars. don't get me wrong, the new one is cute, I guess I just like the other one. oh well.

She's the type of woman that would cook your pet rabbit for supper.

Bitch! that rabbit had a family!
Well actual several because its a rabbit.

( palm in face ) Oy...

Really? But iif that's true why do they put their hands through...

You know what, I'm not gonna continue that sentence.

Oh pray tell, please do finish the sentence.

it's not the final chapter. at least I don't think it is. and if it is, it would suck wood chips for Sukekoro-san to leave it at that.

that being said, i'm not sure how this will progress the relationship of the sisters. if Mom had not hurt herself, they would have moved away and they could have gone back to being "lovers" of sort, but with Moms hurt, I "think" this incident will force Natsuki to assume a mother role and that should make for some interesting role playing or drive a wedge further between the sisters because Umi will want to distance herself even more from Natsuki.

You've now reached the point where you start re-reading everything over and over
This one is great for re-reading shenanigans if i say so myself

+1. Rokuroichi is an excellent choice!

"...reading too much yuri..."

The words are familiar, but that phrase makes no sense.

lmao, I tend to agree, but in addition to this crazy day dream I've been having, I've been finding myself driving to/from work/school/home and playing "what-ifs". it's pretty bad. I think I need to seek out yuri-anonymous (YA) for help.

I've been having the same day dream over and over. it's a cross between Linkage (android is adult-like) and Akagi-san and Kaga-san's Valentines Story (stuck on pinning someone against a wall). I hope I have the day dream again so I can write it down.

how many times has this happened to you?

Ohh my, my ,my this was so delicious to read . It really got my girlfriend wet lol and now I am being nudged to go into the room lol . Good job to the writer and artist on this one.

have fun ;-)

hmmm... I really liked the design patterns the ropes made. though I wasn't so crazy 'bout the story.

@blopa - true, but the anime was still nice. I kind of wished there were more episodes.

this one shot begs for a follow-up.

I wanna know what happens next dangit!
