The webcomic El Goonish Shive had something vaguely similar.

Oh, hey, an EGS reader! Allo!

Her: "And someday, meet an actual alien!"

Me: Girl, you ARE an actual alien. I recognize my tribe when I see it.

I love to make good decisions based on sufficient information that will end well for me.

To be fair, "hawt" + "nice to me" can make some pretty compelling information points.

To bad this most normal and healthy romantic option for this kid is one she is completely not interested in. Wish she’d just go for the idol tbh lol

I don't think any relationship involving that kid could possibly be normal and healthy. Avoiding pseudo-incest by getting together with a future axe murderer is not a step up.

Damn this is sweet. I can feel stress easing.

There's Xingyuan wishing HER parents were like that.

Man. Usually when a series is axed, there's enough hasty resolution that some people say "Well, maybe it wasn't axed, maybe this is the way they intended to end it" etc. They leave a bit of room for doubt.

Not here. This has to be the sharpest, most suddenly and blatantly wielded axe I've seen.

Wow.

Hmmm . . . When some cheating jerky guy says "Really, it won't happen any more! I've changed, babe!" we tend not to buy it. I stopped reading this a couple of chapters in, thought I'd wait for the end and check the comments for how it went and . . . I have a feeling I will not buy this ending if I read it, so I'm gonna skip it.

I find the way this is developing weird. I mean, Violet seems to be in the process of becoming this somewhat sympathetic character, you can tell because her special knight can fight Frost to a standstill, which would absolutely not be happening if she was the bad guy, and because nowhere in the narrative does it really raise the possibility that her grievance is just a complete hoax, so presumably it isn't.

So, OK, but what about this price gouging keeping the whole damn town destitute? Are we ever going to hear about that again? I have this weird feeling like the mangaka introduced a character intending them to be one way and then lost control and let them talk until they were another way.

Not so great when the shoes on the other foot now is it miss missy?

Indeed. Here, I believe this was your petard?

Whooo! Ah, let me catch my breath . . . that was some good handholding.

I am surprised how many of the commenters noticed that reference. And dash it all, everyone beat me to it!

All in all, I'd say if you're going to assassinate somebody, don't start off with an attempt that might as well be a warning shot. I know, I know, she wants it to look like an accident, but come on.

Where I am, lately we've got some of those bugs, which we call stink bugs . . . but they're not from here, they're an invasive species. So when I see one I wrap it in kleenex and squish it. The surprising thing is they don't actually smell that bad--it's a bit pungent, but reminiscent of cut grass although not as nice as that sounds.

Lovely chapter. Always nice to see this.

So, seems like the long "platonic relationship" interregnum logjam has just been definitively broken.

Anyway they are adorable so they can flex all day as far as I'm concerned.

Tomato juice? Really?! Not that I care, just here for the silly gay hijinx, but come on.

This is cute/silly. I can see it being fun. Given that, I'm willing to ignore a fair amount of realism.

Do the chinese censor all kissing, or just gay kissing?

There is no "The Chinese" doing the censoring, there's individual publishers, so it depends.

I like the TL notes, but speaking as a guy who reads my manga on a laptop and, in fact, does not own a cell phone, these QR code "links" don't do much for me.

On Nadeshiko's name, I imagine one intended resonance is that the character comes off, except when she's actually doing violence, as something of a "Yamato Nadeshiko" -- very ladylike traditional Japanese young lady.

I actually can't recall a single other stepmother/daughter yuri series. I'm kind of hooked for that reason alone, but the drawings are pretty nice too.

Hmmm, no. I've read at least one ACTUAL mother/daughter yuri series, though.

Holy shit, this manhua is GORJ

And intriguing; I feel it's very rare to get a romance anti-hero (or "brat", I suppose) character that is genuinely funny, insane and charming in the right amounts without being too annoying.

May I introduce you to scum bag yuri manga, peak cheating yuri, and not into yuri yuri? (Annoying traits and decision making may vary)

Yeah, see, I actually find the MCs of the ones of those I recognize really annoying (so I stopped reading 'em), so for me they wouldn't count as being "charming", or even very "funny". Don't know what the person you replied to thinks about it.

Hurrah! "Even Slower Start" returns!

Yay, MahiMahi!
Those two will still be ludicrously sweet and innocent as they have actual sex before any of the other characters . . .
