Again, I'm legit baffled at how you guys keep seeing Mei as cold, uncaring, and pushing Yuzu away, leaving her to do everything for their relationship when just in this chapter we had Mei openly address Yuzu's concerns and telling her everything about the Akamine business. We also had her going out of her way to find Yuzu a present in previous chapters.

The old Mei would've never been this open with Yuzu and she would instead use those showings of physical affection to make up for her shortcomings.

Speaking if Yuzu wanting to help Mei, did I hallucinate or Yuzu has said she's aiming to be a teacher now?

Mei is also learning to open herself to Yuzu so is perfectly in character for her to unintentionally sound rude when she is actually just being too polite.

That seems weirdly arbitrary and completely ignores the context in which the hug happened, but sure.

ZZZZZZzzzzzz. We waited since October for this??????? It's done. I don't care about the academy, Mei or Yuzu. What a waste of our time waiting for this garbage! No hugs, no kiss, no romance. NO MORE!

I wish I could read the same manga all of you do. Sounds like a wild ride.

How does adding the running of an entirely different school to her current business agenda (you know, the one that's already so full that she is unable to celebrate Yuzu's birthday despite being in the next room from her) constitute Mei "closing this chapter of her life"?

It would mean she has fully taken over as chairwoman of Aihara Academy, leaving free to pursue her relationship with Yuzu without having to worry about whatever the board of her grandpa wants.

Every time I feel like you guys are reading an entirely different manga than me.

In this chapter, Yuzu finally gathers the courage to ask Mei about everything related to Arata and the Akamine Academy issue and Mei is more than willing to tell her everything and put Yuzu's fears to rest (she even shows a ping of jealousy at Yuzu and Arata becoming close). Amusingly, Arata is basically a male Yuzu thrown into Mei's role.

I am curious to see how this arc will develop since I didn't think Aahara was outright trying to take over Akamine, I want to see how Arata will react to this development.

We are so back

Vol 3 cover is gorgeous

Nekotarou just posted that the special edition of Volume 3 sold out and that preorders increased compared to Volume 2!

Those piercings with the ribbons look painful

Just so everyone knows, their names are Emma Torikai (left) and Chizuru Mori (right), they are the protagonists of a series called Police and Lady that the author posts on their twitter and fanbox about Emma, a former prostitute meeting and falling in love with Chizuru, a police woman; after she saves her from a client. English translations are fanbox exclusive

Guys, I understand being worried about the series' future and the reasons for the sudden hiatus but it does no good to listen and then spread completely unfounded rumors that randos pull out of their collective asses, that will only harm the fandom and will easily snowball into something ugly.

Let's simply wait for either Sabu or YH to make an official statement about the future of the series.

"I can take on five Mikus"

Luka, probably.

That was just to set up the twist of Sayaka and Kasumi being in a relationship, nothing is implying either of them would be fine with multiple partners.

Technically once again...Lapis original plan is to be a sacrifice (Scapegoat) to boost the prince's reputation and have Diana appear as a hero for the commoners so Commoners and Nobles will never long fight/civil war risk while killing off the crazy radical commoners...I don't consider Lapis' plan to be that pointless...but yes her plan is somewhat stupid and suicidal very much yes [Could have pin the blame on some corrupted noble]...If Lapis or some other smart character was in IRL...They would be smarter than 60% of the world population lol.

Lapis' original plan didn't count with her sacrifice nor was meant to boost the Prince and Diana's reputation, it was straight up just eliminating all commoners, she died because she was the villain of the story and that was how the story was written.

The plot thickens.

Although the pacing of the story is going at a breakneck speed now, I can't help but feel anxious about that.

Yep

I look forward to Rubeus' little schemes spectacularly blowing up on his face.

Diana is still going to be the villainess in this timeline isn't she?

Is very likely, especially if her desire to help Natori ends up friend-zoning herself and pushing Lapis and Natori closer.

These pics become funnier when you remember both Utenas are the same age.

Follow-up

It makes me laugh that shortly after uploading that comic about being grateful she wasn't into monster girls, we got a bunch of comics of Emo wooing monster girls.

Well you guys can stop with the doom posting, Volume 6 has been scheduled for release on Jun 25th

https://twitter.com/yuri_navi/status/1776886744253858120

Since only four chapters are not collected is safe to assume we'll see new chapters starting this month or the next to complete the volume before it releases.

That recap was better made than many official ones, I tip my hat to you.

This looks promising and I'm glad I wasn't the only who noticed the parallels with citrus, although it does fell like Ushio threw in a blender citrus with a dash of Yagakimi, with all that "I don't know what is love" thing
