And thus Makora came to be

I can almost see that classic scene in a lot of older spicy mangas where doctor goes "You do it too much!"

"you want to try both, don't you?" bisexual confirmed?

GALAXY BRAIN-LEVEL INTERPRETATION.

How did I not pick up on this symbolism?? XD

I dunno, I read that as more of an "I want us to share things with each other" kind of thing OR a super subtle way of saying "I want to spend time doing things with you".

I didn't expect to see Seed here. Can't say I remember anything except for the main Gundam and that yellow robot ball that also shows up in Witch of Mercury.
Debating whether or not I should rewatch Seed and Wing just for the nostalgia

Ho~ is Mitsuki finally gaining self awareness?

I'm infinitely surprised there wasn't the "suddenly a transfer student" plot point.
... maybe next chapter.

Precisely my thoughts. After the first page I was expecting that to happen for sure. Maybe the child makes that plot a bit more difficult than usual. Gotta find a babysitter first.

I was half expecting that to happen too but then I thought "Wait. If she starts attending school too, then who's gonna take care of the baby". It'd be pretty interesting in and of itself if Mirai doesn't transfer in but still visits and causes shenanigans.

^ Kokomi isn't "another Ayaka". If I had to compare, Ayaka is more partially clueless ojou-sama in part due to her upbringing and family circumstances with a slight inclination for small pranks and stuff.
Meanwhile, Kokomi is more of an over diligent introvert to the point where she literally quantifies her stress levels and other emotions in points and privately recording it together with her official duties.

So her girlfriend of several years dumped her and married a guy right away? I am always quite confused when I read that kind of storyline in a manga, do people in Japan really get married that sudden?

It's hard to explain properly without touching up on the culture in places with a lot of influences from East Asian cultures. There's a lot of implied expectation for people to get married and have kids; "fulfill your filial piety".
The way marriage is seen is less of a "two people in love getting tied" and is more "two families becoming intertwined" sort of thing. So for some people, going along with the family's decision OR deciding for themselves that this other person is better for various reasons that may either involve the family that they are about to build or their relatives is a higher priority than picking the partner you already have/had.

I mean, those "marriage interviews" (I don't know if that's the right English term for it) are still very common and, unless you're using a matchmaking service, families tend to look for people that they either already have some sort of connection to or people who will bring better connections/opportunities for their family or their would be descendants.
Not saying that there's anything inherently right or wrong with the system, just that there are people who prefer to go along with that instead of going through the trouble of finding a partner themselves not knowing if things would even work out.
It's a whole thing really. It works for some and doesn't for others. Usually, the people involved pretty much decide very early on in those talks if they will get married or not.

I know the one sitting beside Cloud Retainer isn't Herta but I can't help but see Herta going gaga

Knowing her, she'll definitely tell Keqing embarrassing stories of her niece's childhood before giving them their well wishes while she chats their ears off XD

^ looks like voice control practice so that's very likely

They're finally living together.

Only took 11 years.

I... I didn't even realize that it's been that long since the first oneshot came out

Is it just me or does the art style here look a lot like Amano Shuninta's art style?

^ Can't blame her. She gets full view and access to Momo's abbs in that form

Say it isn't so! Why must this be a oneshot? Q~Q

^ probably muscle sores from over exertion

^ The original LN author even wrote a few spicy chapters featuring their dynamics. Anis is definitely the bottom

^^ I can only agree if you meant that as "they should have kissed on screen instead of leaving it as implied subtext via parallels at the end of the animated series"
KorrAsami is great stuff

I saw the title and then I saw the art and then the author and came straight here and saw this comment.

Kodama Naoko

Oh dear, here we go again.

I really can't say it any better than that

Very dumb and not very subtle twist, it's like 10 chapters late to be interesting (it hasn't been "years" since Yuzu-perspective chapter, I think we literally never had one). I'm honestly very disappointed it's that simple, and I'd argue it doesn't even explain her behaviour up to this point very well - you can talk about suppressing feelings all you want but this clearly showed she isn't completely oblivious.

It was not worth to hide all that just to uphold the gimmick of "Minami is dumb" from the last 17 chapters, it doesn't even feel consistent - I certainly don't have that "a-ha" moment that now everything makes sense.

My feelings exactly. It's like what my old writing professor would say about "joke" stories. If you set something up that depends so heavily on the eventual reveal, you're basically creating a joke. The entire framework of your story now depends almost entirely on the punchline and if the punchline isn't deemed worth it the entire story falls apart for the reader. This punchline didn't work for me. Not only is it too late and not very explanatory but it's also so standard.

Same feeling here... The chapter was great in itself, but it's happening way too late and doesn't fit the narrative so far. In the end, I understand this was supposed to be an impactful chapter but it fell completely flat to me. That's a real shame...

Imo, if we didn't have to wait so many months to get to this point this "reveal" would not have felt "too late". We've been made to wait both in the story and irl publication time so it's no wonder that that the suspense has pretty much died down for us who have already made our own conclusions while waiting for a new chapter. Besides, us anticipating Yuzu's side of things while only having had Minami's perspective up until now definitely added to the wait time.

But hey, even with that there were a few subtle hints here. And if you really think about it, the Kouhai tagging along on what would have been their date just so happened to be the catalyst for Yuzu's mask to crack.
Honestly, I somehow can't imagine it cracking if no third party ever brought it up. Unless ofc Minami suddenly stops being useless and straight out tells her buuuuutt... it wouldn't be very gay of her to get straight to the point like that, now would it? XD

So yeah, I don't think the timing for this is too far off

Is it just me or does Emma look like Maki here?

Quick Attack?

If you look close enough at her model in the game, you'll definitely be able to see her 6 pack abs.
I probably spend too much time doing just that while she does her idle animations

I'm surprised that this thing is still alive. Honestly glad to still see a new chapter or two after all these years

Interesting how nobody has ever depicted the permet scars all over her body, I mean, it only makes sense for her to be scared all over, yet people only depicts the ones on her face.

Edit: Wait what? This was made by Tachi-sensei!?

Makes me want to see her do an official spicy R-18 chapter of Sakura Trick now X_X

It exists. It's not that explicit but it exists. She drew them going into a love hotel in a doujin extra and I think a few pages worth of sexy time in a different extra chapter
