HAHAHAHA at last my luck showed up =D

Why does all the new UR have the leader skill "___ increased based on ___" ? Is there even a way to use it and have a decent score ?

Honestly I am not expecting some QQ-face-angsty-drama from Shou. But I do expect Drama done his way, that won't be jarring compared to the atmosphere of the rest of the series, (which I think is some of the best I've read here).

...

Slightly off-topic, IMO Slice of life (+ Drama) tends to deliver better drama than stories fully dedicated to it. Those that are drama only... I tend not to be able to care (even when I try to force myself) for characters who's very existance is drama, character that can only be described by the drama around them instead of as an actual person... Just mere constructs for the sake of drama where everything and everyone is fodder for the drama.

Exactly what i'm thinking

what a depressing chapter... a lot of heavy stuff... If I got it right, contact to Ran's father's lost after the quake. And that foreshadowing for Ran's alcoholism and something happening to the two of them... ugh, I'm gonna go cry a river - somehow's totally not my day today

Ran being... hungry... with that... vibrating... phone - lol, who would've thought I'd positively react to this sub-textual fun service

Takachi scared me with that comment, I was preparing myself for some horrible drama and I get a flashback that will surely end fluffy with Ran moving in Keiko's home after some crying when Ran finds out about her father's death x)

Personally, I don't see any foreshadowing. There may be an hint for Ran's being an alcoholic but it could also not be some serious matter, we don't know yet. I believe Keiko payed attention to Ran's drinking and at least tried to limit it in a previous chapter so I don't think it will and up in some horrible drama (if the alcoholism is real).

I started reading this a long time ago and had to stop because it was just a little too depressing.

I'll try it again.

Yeah you should try, it's not as depressive as it seems to become

^ Yes I can play but I can't aim for a good rank, I take a long time to go and come back from work. I lose around 3-4 hour of LP per day and I don't want to use too much love gems (trying my best to have my first UR x)).

I find the song for this event really good. Especially Umi's part, generally she's the one I notice the least

Rose, not to be offensive, but you tend to bash Citrus in almost all of your posts. :/ I get you hate it, but...

OT: I'm actually surprised people assume a male character in a yuri story automatically = love interest. I see the guy as another mop head from Their Story; he's there to support the characters in their relationship. If he sees Seol-a as a dear little sister, I don't see him trying to get in the way of her and No-Rae.

I'm tempted to read the rest of the chapters, but I think I'll wait until they're uploaded on Dynasty.

I put all this in spoiler because maybe it was intentional
Isn't this guy Seol A real brother ? The first chapters are confusing but I think i've read in one of the laters that he is indeed her brother.

Crane made this on 4chan:

Ok I was confused by the different haircut he have in this chapter, with these hair he look totally like the brother.

I also understand that it's somewhat Ayu's fault for not confessing her feelings, but can you really blame a girl that's 14-15 years old about having feelings for another girl? Yeah it's irritating that she hasn't acted on her feelings, but to suddenly be forbidden to touch a friend, Hii is kind of saying 'You had your chance, deal with it.' and she's not confronting her feelings either, instead of choosing to cling to a person who showed her a little bit of kindness and that can be pretty emotionally damaging. So it's both their faults, although it's obvious who will be more hurt in the end.

The problem is not that she didn't confess her feeling but that she just completely ignored her friend confession (I think that kiss can count as a confession) and just acted as if nothing happened while putting distance between them (I don't think i'm wrong saying it's a rejection). And then when the friend start to show affection to another person she start being touchy feely with her trying to tempt her.
We don't even know if she loves her friend, to me she just seems overly possessive.

The author post it on his blog, it's not even divided in chapter and he post page per page irregularly. So I don't think he works with a publishing house, he must just work on it when he feels like it.

^ I don't think there will be NTR and even less cheating here, it would be weird for Ran to go for Keiko's ex and if Ran end up with a girl, it won't be Saki ( + I too don't think Saki was serious)

Between the artstyle and the sometimes incomprensible (for me) way koreans refer to each other, I find pretty easy to get lost with this story.

Is pretty cute but it really goes very slow.

I think the same thing! I'm not familiar at all with Korean comics like I am with manga, so it's been pretty difficult to grasp what's been happening no matter how much I re-read. I think it's the way the text bubbles are laid out...

But so far, I like what I've read. I just hope it gets a little more clear as the series progresses.

You know Korean webcomics are reads top to down then left to right ? I don't think it's the problem because it's easy to understand but I don't see another reason why it would be difficult to grasp...

Or maybe I'm just used to webtoon

She may not show it in front of Ran but in the christmas chapter when she was talking to her friend she showed some feelings for Ran. That was maybe not romantic but at least beyond normal friendship.

seems like Keiko's ex has taken a liking to Ran

If it's true, he have almost (if not absolutely) no chance to succeed in his love life. Honestly it would reassure me x)

really ? There are only 2, maybe 3 if we count the underclassmen who follow Seol A averywhere, men who are "important" and I don't find them so hard to differentiate

But if you try to remember the other ones then yes it's more difficult x)

Hmmm, it's really a personal point of view, but it's only in Paris I heard women speaking with such intonations and "affected" kind of way.
A bit complicated to explain, but I think it has something to do with where they place their voice when they pronounce:"é" and "i" for example.

Yuri Kuma - here's an interesting MAD I've just found:

Definitely taking you to a part of Ikuhara's world :)

Waiting for the tomboy girl to finally get into the story!

Parisian must not have good hears, we are the only one who don't notice this accent x)

Look like I wasn't the only one who found similarities between Arakawa Under the Bridge's opening and Yuri Kuma
