Kinda get the feeling that their friends would be okay with them dating each other, so the whole secrecy thing is starting to just feel arbitrary.

They know.

Told ya 6 years ago.

Wait...

Six years for this?

“This” as opposed to what? The series was never going to end with a NSFW scene.

As the “it’s a secret from everyone” tagline told us over and over, the reveal to the friends was always going to be the big moment. Although there’s one more chapter, so theoretically we might get to see Nanoha and Chidori push the beds together in their new love nest.

Yeah it's the "diary of their secret relationship." That was the whole premise that I think people maybe overlooked. Can't wait to discuss the ending!

I can't even describe how much I hate Kyo. He's so yucky. From the previous chapter I know that he slept with Ino, but like the confirmation from Ino makes it so much worse. Like the scale is different with just kissing and fucking someone. It doesn't make any difference that it's cheating, but maybe I can give some understanding (actually I don't). You know, maybe he wasn't thinking straight and there's a girl who wants to give him some comfort and oops! We kissed. But sleeping with her? Nah, that would take some effort and time, and he is surely eager to get that pleasure, huh? Like it's gross he had the audacity to even think he had a chance to make things right with Eri as lover by communicating with her. Eww. Not to mention he already realize Fuyuki's feelings towards Eri and still ask her if she wants them to not break up. Like what do you think sherlock?

Anyway I think part 2 of ch.17 will be conversation between Eri and Kisaki and I can't wait for the next update! I really hope that Fuyuki will give more harsh words to Kyo tho. Like he doesn't get enough consequence.

We are agreed on your last statement. She's closer to him so it makes sense. I assume his "punishment" will be his strained relationship with his two childhood friends, though I also want them to hammer him more. I feel like Kisaki is playing a quiet matchmaker between Eri and Fuyuki, and I've felt that way for a bit. She helps Fuyuki but she's always felt detached from everything, even this late into the series. It feels like she saw Fuyuki struggling and intended to help her work through her issues, but I don't always sense a stronger desire beyond that. I wonder what she'll say to Eri if they do talk. I'm mostly anticipating what Fuyuki will say and do now that she knows what's happened and that they've broken up terribly.

Does this have spoilers? I haven't got into the series yet but rather wait for it to end. That is if it ever ends

Maybe? I don't know if the series follows the trajectory of the original doujin, it's been so long since it last updated

It updates every other week in English, though (on the official app)? But I guess maybe you mean the doujins?

^ The 4th pic with Jiro is very much as explicit as one could get, though. And there's more. I don't care about this much. I'm more interested in this conspiracy that Pixiv is hiding images from you. I don't know if they're doing you a favor or what. Do you have R-18 turned off? There is a setting for that.

Yeah I'll be real, I really have no clue why people are going as apeshit about this as they are lol. Y'all are tripping over each other to scream about how now the manga is bad and how it's all joever. Why are y'all reading this in the first place?

Unrelated but I love your pfp. Need someone to pick that back up before it ends.

Huh huh. You know, it's not the first time I read something similar. How it's not that hard to go and ask someone out, to figure out your feelings, to ignore the fear of rejection because it's worth it to take the risk. Heard those from my family and friends both. Guess I'm not a real person, then.

I didn't actually say any of that, so I don't know how to respond. You created an entirely different, far more personal argument, then responded to it.

As long as she explains her thought process in detail in the next chapter because it would be very funny.

Yeah that would definitely salvage it a bit and could be funny. I'm really hoping it doesn't go the expected route where she thinks of it as a rejection and then we're many chapters with another misunderstanding. Although having someone push away your kiss would rightfully make you assume you're rejected.

^ Yeah it's very upfront. Many images have barely hidden details to them. Even this image here has some potentially uncomfortable implications. It seems like that's what they do. Still nice art, though.

Probably the same for me. It was kind of fun up to a point, but this is seriously becoming ridiculous. I'm not even angry or anything, this is just ... bad.

It's always been a bit ridiculous. Remember the early silent second MC chapters (otherwise known as the "mysterious Yuzu" chapters, as b58 called them). It kind of improved for a bit but it's gone back to being very mechanical.

The characters don't act like real people. That happens in every story to some extent but normally the writer can mask it. Here you can constantly feel the writer kicking the ball down the road, hence the comments. People don't like when the mechanics are obvious and/or repetitive. This story has a lot of both.

Super cute. Mashiro will have to talk with Makino about her feelings. I'm sure Makino would be very receptive.

I also do want Mashiro to help the Kouhai, especially since she's already addressed her boundaries. If all she's doing is giving advice, I don't see the issue. Makino can trust Mashiro.

Having said that they need to discuss the issue more. I'm sure the texts will be a slight sore spot later...or not. This series likes to subvert issues with fun. Hope kouhai has a good experience at her session.

in ayaka and hiroko there was a black woman who briefly showed up in a backstory section about hiroko, so she was basically a one off character but was relatively prominent within that backstory.

Yeah, Hiroko was flirting with her at the bar and got into a fight with her "friend" because both of them wanted the same woman. Turned out she already had a girlfriend (who I am pretty sure was also a one-off character from earlier) and left them both lol

Am I missing something or did Misa come down with a sudden case of amnesia? Why would Io call her and beg Misa to help her and then run out all haggard in a hoodie while visibly on the verge of breaking down if she was cheating? Io was audibly struggling on the phone, and Misa even talked to Hase and literally said "Isn't this the opposite of protecting Io?!"

Exactly. The idea that she could think this was cheating and call it "jealousy" is a large stretch. Io literally begged to be saved. They also treat the situation as though the manager just slightly overstepped, as though the issue is just about the manager not allowing Io freedom. Is that what's supposed to be taken from this whole thing?

When Misa gets off the phone her thoughts are about that lack of freedom rather than the assault she could clearly hear on the phone. That just seems like a narrative oversight rather than the story's being toxic. I have no issue with complex relationships whatsoever. I'm sure Misa will take care of her next chapter but that doesn't change this weird interaction.

We knew this, but people don’t actually want toxic yuri. The minute you start writing BL drama in a manga for lesbians, here comes the Class S rep to tell you about decency. God forbid you’re a dyke and you want your girlfriend to call you a filthy whore

I think people are more concerned with the sexual assault. I don't think there's much issue with the BDSM otherwise. Jumping right to that after your partner was assaulted is the issue. None of the 3 is really treating that event as seriously as you'd expect, plus she's blaming Io for "allowing" the assault. Is it really Class S to have an issue with all that?

....yeah, I cannot say I like this development.

Yeah I checked out around these chapters. Didn't like the direction at all. The event is terrible as it is but the reactions to it (or lack thereof from everyone involved) are especially weird to me. Don't have a lot of confidence in where it goes.

416 pages and the two have barely gotten past hand holding.

There’s 104 chapters
4 pages per chapter

104 x 4 = 416

Standard manga chapter page count is 25-30 pages

416 / 30 = approx. 14
416 / 25 = approx. 16 1/2

So if we were to go by said standard, only about 14-16, maybe 17 chapters have passed. For a slowburn, and considering what the recent story developments seem to be building to, that’s not bad I’d say.

4 page Twitter series don't typically work on the same timeline as standard manga. It doesn't really make sense to directly compare them page by page in this way. That's not to say that this series is slow or not. I just see this comparison made quite a bit and don't really think it's useful.

Uh. Why are they having an argument now? What is going on?

Chapter 100 is where it happened. Since then things have gotten awkward and they're a bit distant bc Mizuki's busy with the sudden attention from ppl, and Aya is busy stewing in jealousy~

Like that commenter, I also thought they'd be awkward around each other but not actively fighting. Their faces seemed angry on the first page and apparently they aren't talking. That did seem a little odd to me and I did recheck to see if I forgot about an earlier chapter. At least they've got friends to help out.

Sal Jiang? Yes. Love seeing the respect and anticipation her name has garnered. This looks like a lot of fun already. Can't wait to see how Sal develops this idea and plays with it.

Biggest issue if the reincarnator cares. Then there's WataOshi/IFTV, where Rei doesn't give a damn, despite being likely upwards of 25, with her Earth memories and personality dominant.

WAIT WHATTT??!! How old is Yvonne?? Like mentally, all together, both lives. I would think that she is at least 20? And Elsa is 16..... This is a bit uncomfortable, why are yuri series always a bit problematic, there really is no need for all that. I love IFTV but there's a lot of things that you have to overlook to truly enjoy it. Incest, pedophilia, and really dubious SA. Everyone just kinda overlooks how Rei treats Claire at the beginning, especially the bath scene where she makes Claire really uncomfortable. On top of Manaria assaulting the maid too.

This is not a "yuri thing." It's a manga thing. It's whatever your comfortable with.

The grass is always greener on the other side, huh?

They’ve gotten so used to sharing senses that not sharing senses is weird. Funny lol. Uncomfy with it, uncomfy without it

When they realize they can privately be with their lovers, they might come around to it. Probably needs an adjustment period. All happened so quick.

Matsuri rubs me the wrong way. Has from the start. The cute, supportive things she says are always undermined by art and typesetting (if you can call it that), turning what would normally be seen as a supportive, uplifting character into a manipulative one.

I think she'll be a highly toxic influence.

nah you tweakin

It would fit, the main reason to reject the idea is that it leaves Wakaba with nothing

No, Wakaba has Komaki. Komaki's troubled and therefore trouble in and of herself. Komaki can't conceive of a world where Wakaba and her could be together, so she's trying to push her away as hard as possible to make Wakaba cut ties with her, because Komaki can't bring herself to do it. Well, Wakaba is naturally awakening to her own feelings for Komaki and things will go the way things go in manga. Matsuri is not a guardian angel.

Komaki is a burden at best and a bully at medium. Wakaba is rather justified in complaining about how unlucky she feels her life is. The story is pretty far from giving any reason Wakaba should want to be with Komaki beyond suspension bridge effect

That might be the case (debatable) but Wakaba is interested in and falling for (or already has fallen for) Komaki. So, she wouldn't be left with nothing.

^ It just ended, so good time for that.

She's won many mother of the year awards, surely.

Lapis doesn't realize that Natori cannot be removed from the story, she is there solely to change history, her history.

Is this the first time we have seen Lapis fully crack?

She did so with Natori in her bedroom a few chapters ago. When she held her, etc. Natori definitely makes her soften up.

As always we divert with something hilarious. This series is great for that. I appreciated seeing that Mashiro would've said "No," even though that was expected. Can't wait to see Sensei Mashiro. Also, Gamer girl is nearly at her limit. For an unplanned continuation, this new arc has been a lot of fun. Can't wait for more.

"Why pay for lesbian sex services when you can be paid for lesbian sex services?" Taps head

And here I had been thinking Hotaru was a bit of a dummy. I owe you an apology, I wasn’t really familiar with your game.

She goes right to the source. Smart girl!

The weirdest thing about the censored kiss is ... didn't they already kiss? Like, ch. 15 even had a sex scene, so I guess the censors are as inconsistent as always when it comes to their demand?

Eh, or these two are so hot, yet dense that fission occured upon contact.

Sometimes it's inconsistent. Sometimes they have two versions and the TL gets the uncensored one. Other times the TL manually takes out the censor. I believe they did that a lot for "My Dearest Nemesis," but I haven't checked back. I remember that having a censored version.

Basically, "What stupid site is the comic running in"?

(Or "is the artist that bad at drawing kisses?")

It's just bizarrely something common with Chinese romance comics for some reason. I think it's gotta be some bizarre policy of bilibili comics that spread as a standard or something like that? Sometimes the author posts the unaltered image somewhere else like twitter, sometimes the scanlators redraw it, sometimes you just get it like the Chinese fans get it.

Not all comics. I've only really seen it with gay series. Maybe that's just me. Often the author has 2 versions. What's annoying is that they're now carrying that censorship over to western sites when those series gets picked up. Pretty sure "The Omega Heroine wants her Alpha Villainess " has censored kisses on Tapas, etc. You'll often see Chinese authors get around this issue by using "camera tricks" or visual metaphors for the kisses (or sex), like dripping flowers and such. "Addicted to Her," is full of that and does it really tastefully. I think "My Dear Lass," does the same but I don't remember.
