So when is the next chapter going to be?

Given it was dropped back in the spring, my best guess is no time soon.

Not that I disagree or anything, but tag changes need to go through the Suggest Tags page. Make sure you do that step as well, please.

Yohane's done a couple of Remilia x Satori doujins, they're quite nice.

One of the lessons that my second African American Literature teacher drilled into our heads was the importance of reading things that make us uncomfortable. If we shield ourselves from everything that causes us the slightest amount of negative emotions, then we won't know how to deal with those emotions in any real-world circumstance. You can't make your bad feelings go away by avoiding them, because they'll just grow and grow, and when they do come out, it'll be much worse.

Sure, I don't have a problem with the :concerning: content an sich. (I mean I quite liked White Angels as a study of some terribly fucked up people, too.) But it bugs me how some posters seem hellbent on pretending it doesn't exist. :/

And it certainly doesn't mean that we can't point out that yeah, these parts of the story are fucked up. Reading something that makes you uncomfortable doesn't have any point if you don't think about and, if you wish, discuss the parts of it that are uncomfortable.

Plus, doing so is a deliberate act. You make the choice to read something that's uncomfortable and can brace yourself beforehand (which is kind of the point behind content warnings). Stumbling across it while reading a comedy of all things is a different sort of thing, don't you agree?

Nez... NEZ...
It's hilarious, all of it! Hell at this point I could put a bow on it call it art.

Done.

Oh my god are y'all serious? Are you for real right now? I finish reading a wholesome, sweet, light-hearted love story and go to the comments to see other positive comments about it but some of you guys are flipping out and yelling RAPE??? i mean honestly, can you not enjoy something without thinking these things? Just... quiet down and be happy, jesus.

It's kind of text y'know. (See also: the younger sister's immediate alarm upon learning of the relationship.) Takes active effort - or serious blinkers - to not be uncomfortable with that bit.

I'm kind of wondering about that too, between that scene and the sister underlining how she's an animal who just takes what she wants and will throw her away once she's got what she wants, this is the impression the author wants to get across. The idea is that she's the worst, a truly awful person who thinks nothing of hurting others, whose entire world is turned around because she actually fell in love.

At first I thought this was cute, then I read the comments.
I mean, I still like it, and real-life rapists are horrible, and to remind everyone that this is a work of fiction and that characters shouldn't be judged as real human beings.

Ignoring the context of this particular story, doesn't that basically mean a complete failure on the part of the author? I dunno about other writers, but I want my characters to represent actual human beings and be relatable to actual human beings. If their actions can't be judged by human standards (assuming I'm not writing a literal monster or dragon or something) then what's the point?

I hear this sentiment repeated a lot in these forums, but it never makes any more sense to me. Rather, it just seems like a "don't judge something I like" dodge instead.

I guess I'm an anomaly who liked the whole series and didn't find the ending to be particularly bad or anything. Certainly not "bait and switch". The characters were believable and likeable, even if Kei made a massively bad choice at one point. The ending was consistent with Emi's character arc and indicated a positive ending.

Personally, I'm not really fussed that the big romantic finish happened a full chapter or so before the actual end of the story. A longish denouement surely, but not unenjoyable.

is the taboo aspect wat makes yuri interesting in the first place for you guys?
i wonder if in the future it won’t be as special

Taboo can add a little spice sometimes, but honestly it becomes tiresome really fast. I'm in it for girls liking girls, given that I'm a girl who likes girls myself. I can identify with the romantic feelings.

I have lesbian relatives and none of their relationships are rosy/enviable like in these stories, especially the older ones. It’s just so much better in 2D.

By counterpoint, I have known a number of older lesbians with just fine relationships who don't run into extreme homophobia at every turn. And younger ones too.

BugDevil, Doctor_Hoot, you've said your piece. No need to elaborate, you were both quite clear in your positions.

Everyone else, let us admire these walls of text as an untouchable monument to the points they were making, and sit in quiet contemplation for a moment, before moving on to a glorious new day.

I'll be deleting both these posts, since this can't possibly go anywhere good. Sorry if anyone invested a lot of time in them.

And DRAAAAMAAA right from the first chapter. I freaking hate this manga, but I need to keep reading it.

What drama? No, seriously, what drama? Are you okay? Do you need to release your frustration from the original manga some more? Maybe you think basic human interactions boil down to drama by default?

Intriguing, yet highly disturbing.

Hey, if hand holding is hardcore sex, then what we've seen here is high drama. QED.

Nev of course is right. So speaking of the text we actually have, what does everyone think, "Let's do this at home" means?

They've already tongue-kissed and held hands with intertwined fingers--how much further can they go?

After all, they're both girls. lol

How do two girls hold hands anyway?

This has gone on way too long and has less and less to do with the actual story. I’m tells no you all to let it drop at this point.

If you want to discuss the bisexual tag, take it to that tag’s discussion. If you want to discuss analogies, take it to the cafe thread or the Discord.

But if you want to discuss the actual story, then by all means, go ahead.

The twins and their Aunt appear in another story called Lonesome Echo. Definitely the Aunt is involved in a abusive relationship with her female piano teacher in that one. But add me to the people who don't see the Incest or Yuri in this one, I think it's just a love hate relationship between two twin sisters. But It's a sweet and funny story nonetheless.

Going by the extras, Kanade is definitely a lesbian, so there’s that to take into account.

Haven't read this, but I wanted to point out I've never seen trap being used as a derrogatory term. I know transphobia is a thing and really bad, but I've seriously never seen anyone use trap as a derrogatory term AT ALL.

I’ve seen it used that way a number of times, in pretty clearly derogatory ways. So it does happen.

Stardew Valley, and some American Truck Simulator last night.

For someone who doesn't drive, that's a surprisingly stressful game.

Why manhwa and webtoons don't get uploaded here? I mean the only one who does is Their Story, but there are others which are pretty good. If it's for copyright issues maybe we can still make a "page" for it with only one image and a summary so people know it exist and can go to lezhin or wherever they are posted to read it.

Edit: examples are Moonlight Garden, The third Party, Her Pet, Blooming Sequence, WDTFS, IWYDE, etcetera.

Lezhin are very protective of their copyrights, and thus we don’t host copies of their series or allow linking to unauthorized third-party sites that do so.
