Meanwhile here I am, enjoying basically every chapter whether it's sloppy melodrama or a fluffy date. Unbothered, moisturized, in my lane, flourishing, etc.

So with you on this one, I'm having a grand ol' time with this series

Mitsuki's reaching critical levels of rizz, first Aya, now her family, soon it'll affect the whole neighborhood

I never thought I would see the day, but Shounen Jump has a serialized yuri manga that just came out. It will be on the mangaplus app every friday.

A happy rare occurrence indeed, though not the first time Manga+ has had a GL title in its lineup! Like Pension Life Vampire or Suito-to! (prev in english, now only in spanish). and a couple more on the Japanese side, like Weird Voices and 100 Days from Suzuo or Virgin's Empire.

i gotta say, Itsuki Kuro draws some real cute buttholes

Yeah, Polyamory can work but it depends mostly on the people involved,

so like.... literally every other form of human relationship. don't see ppl scrunch their nose and go "well it caaaan work between just two people, i guess" at any monogamous couple.

We won so hard y'all.

every time another oneshot from this polyam yuri anthology gets translated it's a good, good day~

also YESS! You can be polyam and still experience jealousy! THANK YOU!! It always peeves me so much when ppl think that just bc you're polyam you're not allowed to feel jealous. Of course you can! It's a normal human emotion! Some ppl feel it, some don't and either way is fine. How we choose to deal with it is what matters.

alright alright alright, color me intrigued

This deserves to be a full story, I don’t think I’ve seen an age gap single mom Yuri story?? I’d be down

well, there is The Sunlit Trap but i can't think of a proper series like that either~

Oh this is really cute! Can't wait for it to get another chapter and then never update ever again :,)

also, do you really wanna be in poly relationship with your (step)sister? that feels kinda weird…

for reality that's neither here nor there but at least as far as this manga goes i think we're already way past 'kinda weird' xD

Will they won't they is out. Who's the duper and who's the dupee is in

Here we go with more forced drama. Obviously she will say yes and 10am race her boss won't come back after a hour and she won't make it to the race.

The quality of the series really went down hill. I think ever since they switched publication or whatever it was and then started the sequel series.

Maybe the author doesn't know how to write a none high school story proper so just forces the drama to make a story. Or they have a editor that is pushing them to add drama.

idk what's the problem here, taking too many things on your plate and struggling with priorities is a really common thing to happen. And it was properly set up and everything too.

Like, what do you even want? Would you rather there'd never be any sort of conflict bc apparently any kinda complications count as "forced drama" now. Is a story devoid of problems where nothing ever happens so there's no "drama" what you want? bc that's how you get "no substance, fluff only" slice of life 4-koma strips.

(which have their place of course but then ppl complain about how there's no "development" and nothing ever happens so, y'know, damned if you do, damned if you don't)

Blood type influencing how much you get bitten by mosquitos does sound like bullshit though ...

i heard somewhere that it's actually about the amount of potassium in your blood. 's prob just as much hearsay though

The first episode of the anime just released, and it's really good so far, the animation is great too! :)
The first episode stayed true to the first chapter everything was really similar, which was great, especially getting to see the rock-out scene with actual sound :)

And of course the opening is an absolute BAND-MAID banger~

I made it through my favorite character playing for over a year with her arm broken. This final little bit is nothing. It looks to be ending before my schooling is paid off at least and that was becoming a concern.

Wdym ending? Don't forget, we still got the the whole Individuals championship to come after this :D There's at least another decade worth of mahjong in this series, easy xD

Oh hush. Don’t give them any ideas. The only way I could be drug back in for more after this ends is if Hisa graduates and changes her mind to go pro in another spinoff. Then i’ll reset the clock to my car payment.

At this point i'm in deep so i'll read it all. What i'm looking forward to the most though is the anime. Once the final match is over we might actually, finally, get a continuation/conclusion for that as well. Fingers crossed

My main question with the time travel is what happened to the Mary of the new timeline. Mistress still remembers her so she wasn’t erased, but she doesn’t seem to be around.

My guess is she died as a maid and came back in time in the new body, her soul changed places with the new body's soul. This a common formula for this type of story if I'm not remembering wrong.

Mary looks the same in both timelines so rather than her "taking over" somebody else's role I think it's more like the new timeline she went back to is one where she had always existed as a noble instead of a maid. So there was nobody to be erased. Her Mistress simply remembers her from the original timeline.

An alternate universe kinda deal.

that's a surprisingly level-headed explanation to the whole "don't fall in love" thing. Her mother's not a villain or romance-hating control freak. She just tried to delay smth she was afraid of bc she didn't know how to teach her daughter smth she wasn't equipped to deal with herself. And simply told her as much.

Can't think of many other instances where smth like this went by as straightforward.

What I wanna know is that, if the leads hate each other so much, why is every scene they share so erotically charged?

Two words: hate. sex.
:)

Off the top of my head there's This, This, This and This. I can think of one or two more but those are pretty short (as of now).

Size don’t matter to me. Drop the receipts (respectfully)

Here, You, Go!

What other longer series have a similar setup? Two students meeting back up years after separating in HS and falling for each other. I can't think of others right now but I know they're out there.

Temporary Conclusion?

The lesbian gremlin part of me is like "ok but consider: what if they kiss" and i gotta say, that's a p strong argument

What if they opened up to each other about shitty men they've known, and cooked food together, and laughed together, and started complaining to each other about little mundane things, and one night on the sofa they tenderly held hands while watching a movie, and the next day one of them started freaking out about it, and the other one was like "oh huh this is new" .... and then eventually... they kissed?

see, they get me

Didn't the duel end on a draw? Why is Shion saying that she lost?

prob bc she failed to defend her lady's honor, in a "not winning is equivalent to losing" kinda way.
