That feels like something she'd notice sooner, rather than later, especially if Mitsuki keeps doing things like accidentally kabedoning her or whatever you want to call the way she gave back that earbud in the fourth chapter.

"Haha oh my god I just accidentally kabedoned you again. Crazy how that keeps happening, this is what the fourth time? I swear I'm not doing this on purpose please believe me"

Chapter 11 back on the first page. Don't think I've ever see something fall off and then come back again, everyone clicking next on 10.1 eh

Teruko should be like "so my friend who I have a crush on started watching my stream should I tell them who I am" on stream so she can watch Sukoya spontaneously combust

Wasn't really debating. I guess I was just a bit incredulous about two Japanese highschool girls bonding over a 30 year old American rock music. Don't get me wrong, it's pretty cool. I always like seeing American culture in manga. it's just weird

We haven't taken this discussion back to the mangaka. I mean, it seems like it would be exactly as unlikely for the probably young, female Japanese mangaka to be interested enough in that kind of music to want to make a lead who was into it, as for the character to exist. And yet, here we are.

The artist is fluent in English, obviously I don't know their circumstances but it wouldn't surprise me if they had some mixed cultural influences growing up. Maybe a third culture kid

Is this whole story a recursive commentary on gay women escaping into fiction as an outlet for their self repressed sexuality lol

...is black nail polish hard to remove? Can't say I ever noticed lol

Mine's a pain in the ass but I also have never worn any other color so I can't compare lol.

The bigger issue (from what ive heard, ive never worn nail polish before) is that taking it off so frequently will destroy your nails pretty much. It would be a cool plot point if once Mitsuki is found out by Aya, Aya convinces her to be a little more open at school and so she can start keeping the nail polish on without constantly stripping it

It's not really clear how often she's at the shop but yeah I used to change my nail polish a lot and stopped swapping out colors so much because it was rough on my nails.

Anyway I find really funny that she's like oh no my nail polish, here get a good look at my face instead lol

Gyaru has no game, that is funny.

She gave out her number real smooth. I think she has intermittent game. It comes and goes as necessary.

It's like war, really. Morale is higher on the attack and you go into battle with a plan but as time goes on friction erodes your ability to follow it. In his lesser known work "On Yuri" Clausewitz notes...

I'm on chapter 30 and I feel attacked by how relatable Makio is, I feel like I'm being read to filth lol

Kasamachi feels fantastical on some level, I don't think I'd ever imagined finding a partner who didn't mind my allergy to ritual, I've never been so interested in how a het relationship plays out before but I'm totally invested to see what their relationship dynamic is gonna be like

One thing, looks like she not only didn't go to school, she did that extreme Japanese manga thing of never leaving her room. OK, that's bad, but it implies she was totally dependent for food on whatever her parents shoved in her door. So she couldn't just eat crap--she'd have to actually walk to a convenience store if she wanted junk food. Likely they fed her a fairly healthy balanced diet . . . which she then didn't eat that much of because she was ignoring food in her depression, but it's plausible that what little she did eat was healthy food. So it might not work out as badly as one would expect.

Yeah, I assumed this was the case. It's not that hard to avoid malnutrition with modern varied diets, I've mostly avoided it without too much effort through multiple periods of poor health

Breaking news! Manga is unrealistic—film at 11.

Curious how you never hear such complaints when it comes to 404: Men Not Found stories, or stories where every female character in the world is a lesbian... no?

Those are reader wish fulfillment; "creating manga makes you hot af" is mangaka wish fulfillment.

That's kind of hilarious considering Kyouki's classmate criticized her for drawing self insert fantasies. Wonderfully recursive

I'm trying to figure out how much time passed in her self isolation. My first thought was she holed up to redo her manuscript but multiple deadlines implies other work and a long period. She still graduated so she couldn't have missed that much school (but I don't really know how school works in Japan) and graduation was at the end so it's like a year at the very most? You can definitely lose that much weight in a year, though shorter time period might not be as realistic, I lost about 5/6 pounds a week when I had health problems and couldn't eat for six weeks and that was at almost total starvation.

Funny enough when I was starving the weight did not come off my body equally. By the end after dropping 40-50 pounds seemingly none of it had come out of my chest so my breasts were the same size but on a much thinner frame, so that part got a chuckle out of me.
