I didn't expect to learn some German deodorant marketing lore in a manga like this xD I've seen this Deo in the store before and wondered about it's name, but personally I'm more of a Garnier Mineral kinda gal~

I'm kind of disappointed the main plotline has seemingly been abandoned, and Asumi will never reunite with Mai.

I am fully convinced that the "main plotline" with Mai is still happening and everything going on right now serves the purpose of making the eventual reunion more complex in feeling (ideally setting up for a polyam endgame, one can hope :D)

PSA: The idea that corsets could be so tight you would have trouble breathing is a myth.

Then why haven't they gotten back in fashion?

Ask the right ppl (like my fellow goths) and they'll tell you they never went out of fashion :p

Another reason could be to make sure that Elsa and Garth don't meet as kids, since he hadn't met her before when Evie introduced him to Elsa as a potential suitor.

Im assuming all autumn anime are confirmed by now.
So ofcourse the importance of all-girl shows, which was rather dry this season. Although Bang dream MyGo was amazing[ep 10 is peak]

Dekoboko Majo no Oyako Jijou - Cant believe it, but hopefully not yuri but just wholesome with how its a mother-daugther anime.

Dekoboko is just silly comedy. afaik from the manga there's nothing romantic to the daughter's overbearing mothercon tendencies. the "my mom is the most precious thing ever and if some stinky man gets close to her i'm gonna curse him to death" flavor

How come this has a kissing scene while Crescent Moon and Doughnuts doesn't? Lol

Bc the characters in Crescent Moon and Doughnuts don't want to engage in physical closeness like that, is a p simple concept

I just noticed this series started in 2017 and there are barely any updates. I hope the author will wrap things up accordingly before this just fades away. It's really good for what it is

idk what you mean barely any updates. Oct '17 to July '23 are 69 months (nice). with 85 chapters the series is on a better schedule than others with a monthly release schedule like it

y'all say this development is sudden but really, how long did you want this realization to be stretched out for?
Having the thought "huh, seems familiar", voicing it and immediately being told "fucking finally, took you long enough" def makes for better pacing than another 17 chapters of
"okay i think she might be my childhood friend, but is she really? Let me go through the most convoluted ways of secretly confirming my suspicion without her finding out" xD

What is it talking about them being married?

It's a popular fan theory concerning the finale.

At the end of the episode the gang ends up in Hawaii where they continue the business. Same sex marriage is legal in Hawaii. The last scene has an "Easter egg" where you can see the two of them now have matching bracelets.

IMO, as much as I absolutely adore these two I think it's a stretch, just on this point specifically. But who am I to argue against yuri goggles?

P sure it's bc of this official art of them in wedding dresses that they sold in December at Comiket~ This oneshot came out in December as well, so it fits.

That was really cute~ Shiho going from pushing Aki away bc she can't bear to be close to her unrequited love to saying "screw it!" and pursuing her openly and honestly, regardless of whether her feeling are/will be requited or not, is very sweet~

I have a feeling their dynamic going forward will be very entertaining to see :D

This very much feels like the ending of an anime season 1 where you know there's more to come but it never got a second season. A lot is left unresolved, i hope we get to see it all someday. At least we can look forward to the Hibai x Gina epilogue thingy~

Well, you have to argue with the G Witch staff for that considering the OST has a track named "Tsundere" which is an arrangement of Miorine's theme

Not really since we watched the show. Same with their "up to interpretation" line right? A track title doesn't change what happened in the show.

the "up to interpretation" thing came from the suits up top, not the staff who actually made the show. Case in point: the super explicitly gay as fuck G-Witch Artbook.

cecile posted:

I see a lot of hate on Shion here, but honestly, she's right. In a real world situation (read: not a Yuri manga), if you confess to a partner and they don't feel the same, you risk ruining the partnership (which in this case means ruining Kiki's chance of being top pair in the quadrille). In a sense, Shion is looking out for Kiki and her dream. You can't fault her actions.

Like she protected her dream when she abandoned her without a proper explanation at the start? leaving her in shambles? let's not pretend she say that because she wanted to protect her, she's just being a coward the first time and once again because if she can't then no one can, her heart is not in the right place.

Both of those things can be true, i think. cecile is correct in that confessing and potentially messing up their relationship could very well destroy everything they've been working for up until now.
But it's also true that Shion clearly has less than pure ulterior motives telling Michiru about it like that, since she even admonishes herself and feels guilty over it.

The fact that her point is technically not wrong, is prob part justification what led her to do this in the first place, like telling herself "Oh i'm just saying it for their own good" but also immediately thinking "oh who am i kidding" after she does it

Did I miss something? How did Satsuki overcome the Wasp sting? Was it just sheer strength of will?

I don't recall if class rep Seo had asthma or anything but one possibility is an inhaler for that. Beta-agonists and antihistamins would help Satsuki counteract any difficulty to breathe somewhat.

and some inhalers even have epinephrine in them, presumably working the same way as an epinephrine injector in a case of anaphylactic shock (though probably not as well)

That sleeping bag sex is the hottest looking thing I've ever seen. And I don't mean that in the sexual way. I think I would literally die in the Japanese summer, seems like more of a winter camping activity...

i bet that's how sardines in a can feel when they wanna get a lil frisky
