Might as well remove it then. From every story.

But, but, aren't tags here to be used? My life is a lie! Plus everyone who wants to search through the Wishful Thinking tag will miss on this story :P

The VN was really fuckin weird.

It must've been your first VN if you thought that was weird.

Pretty sure it wouldn't bother Austen much. After all, the whole world around her does it all the time, probably including friends and family. It may make Sunati think differently about her own mods though. Which wouldn't be angst so much as self-examination, which would be pretty nice to see.

It all depends on where the thoughts would go from both of them. It can easily go the angst route should the author choose, but I don't think he/she will.

Well there's like seven eps of it out on Netflix, and there's torrents too if you're poor.

Jessica Jones' whole season is out not just the seven episodes. In torrent form of course. But, if they're on torrents they must've been posted on Netflix as well.

New Always Human was soooooooo cute <3 That is how you do proper yuri! This webcomics is amazing already and it looks like it only going to get better =^.^=

Yep. And because I'm a paranoid idiot, I can't wait for the angst when the tall one changes her mods!

(Don't mind me)

Kind of sad it's only a one-shot.

telamon, exactly what kind of drama you fear is going to happen? What is the worst case scenario? Love triangle?

Look at the previous page.

Promo materials is just that, promotion. Showing of characters, they don't necessarily need to be alive. Just important enough, same for OP and ED. Plenty of animes have had dead characters in OP and EDs as well as promo material.

I guess I'm just tired of the same old drama tropes.

Wasn't Momoka appearing at some point like obvious from episode 2? And that it will be pretty significant Mirei and plot wise?

Not really obvious. She could've been dead and they could've shown her as the previous person she cared for instead of bringing her back. As for significance, Mirei could just tell Mamori, plot wise again, she doesn't need to be there. Just a background research from someone in the castle.

Could've gone either way is all I'm saying.

Yeah, which is even worse. Really hate stupid drama like that..

While the execution remains to be seen, isn't as stupid when you take a good look at it. I mean, Momoka has been a very sore point for Mirei so her appearance is bound to cause some complications

If by worst case scenario you mean the one from the page before, it wasn't the case

You were assuming that Momoka's would appear on episode 9 when she's actually showing up this week

Yeah, which is even worse. Really hate stupid drama like that..

By the way, do not think the epilogue will be extremely long, I would say it will be similar to Chapter 45, about 14 pages, and we also have to consider other extras as the 8 color pages at the beginning, the pages with information about stretching appearing between one chapter and another, as this has been the structure of volumes so far.

Huh, that's a little disappointing. Don't have the volumes so didn't know that. Hopefully though it's more than 14 pages. I don't know how much he will be able to fit in.

Someone did a rough translation of the story bits in the interview

From episode 7 onward the story will become more connected and the story will grow to be more serious. Among them, the identity and goals of a certain character will be revealed alone the way, and Sagara Momoka that only appeared in the beginning of episode 2 in the flashback scene will finally arrive at the island. Mirei and Mamori partnership is going strong, but Momoka’s appearance will cause some kind of ripple. There will be development like “What? That girl and that girl gonna fight?” In the second half it will feels like they’re digging deeper into the island called Mermaid and Momoka. The girl that once shared a fate with Mirei, Momoka will scratch everyone not only in boobs-like but also human relation-like things. Mirei and Mamori were using boobs freely and they will be torn apart by boobs ……(笑)。 Since the screen might become pure white in the censored version, please enjoy the whole thing in the BD version and AT-X ver.

WELP

So, my worst case scenario coming to fruition I see. And here I held out hope. Guess I should know better.

At least the epilogue will be 20-30 pages if previous books are any indication.

Middle of December I think, or around that time.

So, I read Anastasia Vitsky's stuff. Or at least 4 of 5 that I managed to find. All her stories involve spanking/light BDSM (though I doubt it can be called that). And they are all short (100-ish pages per story) so it's a quick read. At times I got confused in what she was trying to convey, but it didn't matter.

"Simple Gifts" is my favorite so far of hers, followed by "Seoul Spankings" (the MC from "Simple Gifts" shows up for a bit), and then the other two that I could've gone without reading "Editorial Board" and "Desire in Any Language", mainly because they don't really have romance in them. But yeah, they are light and fun (the last one is kind of an exception).

The fifth one that I have "Gemstone" I probably won't read because it has a love triangle, and I really dislike them so.

Page 14 "It's definitely won't end well.." should be "It definitely won't end well.."

Otherwise. Even if she was afraid of her boyfriend, I find it disconcerting the way her attitude changes from page 9 to page 10. Sure it's natural for people to play off the fears in a joking manner, but I find her 'scared' persona to be fake. I guess that may be a little due to not trusting her/suspecting she's a bitch. Also the benefit of the doubt I chose to gave her went away with the grin on the last page xD

I don't know. Another option is to push Mew to do something and hoping that whatever she does would push Donut away.

Mommies fighting to make lunch for the daughter. How sweet.

Trauma Alert by Radclyffe is a pretty good book. The MCs are a trauma surgeon and a firefighter/paramedic. The details about procedures are pretty good, though that is kind of a given since the author is a retired surgeon. The best friend of one of the MCs also has her own book with her now wife. So I'll probably read through that one. The way she describes the MCs arousal though, it's like they've got aphrodisiac for blood. That is to say the sex only happens 3/4 in the book, but the way it's described is pretty.. hmm, animalistic? "Clitoris tightening." Yeah. Anyway, good book.

Oh no, they're not all done for laughs. Beneath all the conversations there is depth, but the core of the characters is to be funny and light, and I guess a lot of people don't see that.

And out of curiosity I googled "lesbians in Borderlands game", much laughter was to be had. Apparently there was a lot of crying from (probably all men) about the "amount of gay" in this game. And if you're defending the amount of gay in the game you're an SJW. xD

The thing is though, that as usual with the Borderlands game, they are over-the-top and shouldn't be taken seriously. In the case of TPS (The Pre-Sequel) Janey is a very stereotypical lesbian that goes after every pretty female (Moxxi and Athena) it's even seen that she more or less stalks Moxxi, so while there are plenty gay/lesbian people, they are mostly there for the joke that they are gay/lesbian. Just my two cents ;)

joined Mar 25, 2013

^ If you haven't played Borderlants TPS you should. Janey flirting with Athena and her getting flustered/not knowing what to say is pretty fun and cute. The TVH and UVH are worth it as well cause it's told by Tiny Tina with Athena jumping in now and then.

Bluebell Hall was....a nice try. It had all the elements, but she seemed to be in such a rush to cover them all that none got any real development, leaving the whole thing kind of shallow. It would have been a great book if it were at least twice as long.

Yeah, that was the problem with My Lady King as well. The pacing was too fast. If she slows down I imagine the books would be pretty good, but as it stands. Not really worth reading I think. If anything at least they are short so you can kinda say you haven't wasted your time, but at the same time. Yeah.

Graveyard Sparrow by the same author is much better. Yes, it's pretty obvious who the villain is early on, but it doesn't really matter all that much if you know since that's not really the point. It does suffer from an ending that sort of fizzles a bit when it comes to the action though. Certainly it's more worth reading than BH was.

Alright, I'll give that a go sometime this year xD

I think I mentioned that witch a few pages ago... things get buried here so quick though.

It is entirely possible, I remember seeing it somewhere but I've been lurking in the /u/ literature thread so I'm not sure if it was from there or here that I saw it first.

My Lady King by Kayla Bashe is pretty badly written. I mean I haven't read Bluebell Hall by her but if it's like that, then I'm better of not reading it.

Didn't the guys at Yuri-ism say they were gonna translate a serialized manga of Itou Hachi? Perhaps it's that one?

More Bhikkhuni info

So they're showing each girl what weapon (Arm) she is? All of them are hybrids I guess then. If all of them are hybrids I wonder how common that is.

So this new episode was genuine filler I guess. Mei F(e)ong is an Arm, now I really want Torino to be a Liberator xD

Another thing though, if it's anything that can turn you on, does that mean that if men can turn you on then they can wield you? We haven't learned what a Liberator is/does only that they can handle Arms. But I wonder if you need to be a Liberator to handle an Arm. Now with Mei Fong being an Arm that is not really an Arm since when her 'armor' dissolved generally that shows that the 'dissolved person' is the Arm. I'm a bit confused.

I took some news from Japanese source in translation from which sites I don't know. Is it good news ? it says that Akira Hiiragi will be revealed as a woman in next episode and Momoka will be appeared at episode 9. Can I trust this news ? Well, it depends.
That source is in http://matometti.diary.to/archives/1044983916.html.

If this is true, I wonder how Mamori will react to it. Will she swoon even more or think something like 'if she's a girl Mirei is better.' == And if ==Momoka appears in episode 9, I wonder how that will be, one setup that it seems like they're doing is, make Mamori jealous enough so that she goes to Akira for the last 3 episodes (which would be just stupid writing) since the revelation that would happen in the previous episode would make her realize (to some extent) that she likes girls and will probably think that 'Mirei has Momoka so she doesn't need me' or something like that This is just a worst case scenario but I'm prone to those. Plus they happen more often than not.
