Little Fuuko was so cute, and damn, her parents are loaded. I guess Nana was her nanny

"Nana" is how a child would call her grandma.

So the lady was the mom's or the dad's mother. Obviously, they looked down on her.

Okay.

Yeah I regret reading this today. I try to avoid things... this disturbing and that... ugh. I hate it, I hate for so many reasons but mainly because it's so messed up and now it's stuck in my head.

Hitting the ejection seat on this one.

100% this for me as well :\

See you next chapter

They can't adapt the internal rants of a LN in manga form. The format is totally different.

You can have a lot of introspection in a LN, but the heart of manga is dialogues. Too much exposition and tldr; and the manga gets axed.

Oi. OI! You can't just end a chapter like this on a page like that, that's illegal! What the fuck!

Yeah. We want the recipe.

And then, they graduated and married men.

I wouldn't be so optimistic as to think this manga will adapt the whole LN.

Case in point, Arioto adapted only volume 1 of the LN

Why would her father want to execute her?

Also, why would they send androids to release sexual urges of inmates?

And finally, is the prison for both men and women? That never happens.

If it's women only, why would they send android women? And why not creating also android men for the women who want to?

The whole premise is lost on me.

Nice drawing, but the plot is full of holes.

Cute but... kind of bland.

Like, I've read this plot a thousand times.

Is Minami really that older than Shizuku.
Before Shizuku joined High School, I used to think she was the older one.

Minami is 18 since the start. I guess that didn't change (no indication how much time passed since then). She's currently studying to be a Chef.

Shizuku was about to drop out of High School, which she stayed in only because she got money as long as she was in education, when Saori convinced her to come back. Maybe she repeated a year or two? She was a runaway for some time too (and lived with Miki).

They should be around the same age. Maybe Shizuku is a tad younger.

It's a terrible day for rain.

That was great.

An apology is enough? The dad should have ended up in jail for assault.

And the boy's dad is like "hahaha, it's nothing". What? That huge man knocked out his son with a punch and could have broken his jaw and give him a concussion, but "it's nothing"?

Do you job as a dad, ffs, call the cops and jail that man.

Hey could mods address the stilted attention-seeker?

Yeah, we all know you like the ffm threesome and self-insert into the tiny prick name Narita.

Sorry to burst your bubble but if I remember correctly, there was an implication that Narita might be gay

I don't think so. Narita hasn't been implied to be gay. Just into "people watching".

And if you talk about "skinship" between boys in some chapters, like chapter 40, it's something normal for Asians.

Narita isn't interested in his own romance. If anything, I'd say he's aroace.

Yeah sure, the "I want to be your mama" was really predictable /s

I think you can easily take this story seriously and enjoy it, it's a complex moral drama about characters in a complicated situation, presented with extremely good art and excellent writing. I'm glad the author is writing this for an audience of adults who know the characters are here to be actors in a story instead of being our self inserts, our role models, or being there to be judged or condemned by us in the audience. Even if it makes certain childish readers unhappy.

This tbh.

I enjoy this manga because it's really well crafted. The scenes of Yuni leading Fuuko by the hand (noticed it's a reversal compared to Osaka?), them holding hand over the popcorn after making furtive eye contact and then kissing, how Yuni is constantly blushing and feels so guilty, but just can't control her feelings, how Fuuko suddenly becomes so meek and vulnerable, how they both look so happy with their little interaction over popcorn flavor and drinks...

The author put a lot of thoughts into the meaning of each scenes, the movements, the eyes, the situations.

But here are people discussing how cheating is bad and Yuni deserves to be punished.

Pearls to swines I say.

Lols @ hate reading people

Holly, people here can be really fragile.

Back to this chapters. I can't take this story serious anymore. It's turning 180 to some ridiculous płot development. It's like author don't know how to milk this series further.

And yet, you come back to read it every time.

So, I finally decided to read this chapter... Honestly? As much as I hate Ami, Rei is pathetic. Characters like her deserve every single drop of unhappyness and misery the plot sends their way...

Not reading this anymore...

See you next chapter.

Reminder: that teacher wasn't married before. It's mentioned in a previous chapter that she's retiring soon because of her marriage.

Ie, what Rei says is that she gave up on Ami and ran away by getting married. She wasn't married when she was in a "relationship" with Ami. I suppose the scene in the previous chapter was their "goodbye".

I'm confused. Did we just skip to the 2nd year after speed-running into a date on the first day? Huh?

Apparently progress only happens on the first day of school? First year was first date and second year is "oh so other gay people exist".
At this rate they may kiss before finishing college...in a dozen chapters :P

That's what I understood too.

One thought her love scared away the other. One thought her love isn't "normal".

So they kept the status quo for the whole year.

Anyway, I think this'll need the tag aaangstsoon.

I like how Kon frees herself little by little of her shackles.

She gets all giddy just borrowing the car of her brother without permission.

Ah yes, typical Asian mother, more worried about what the neighbors think than about the mental health of her daughter.

These are officially published stories that built upon the character's and their relationships outside of the main plot. Main series is here.

Is this the main plot now?

It's complicated, because the "side stories" were published in parallel of the volumes. The chapters are numbered from 1 to 41 (up to now) on the web, but numbered differently in the volumes and with 4 pages chapters in-between.

Ie, it's a publishing mess

But it's all canon as mentioned previously.

The art is something else. It's so... 80s!
