Ayy this is back... but after how the previous chapter ended I expected more things happening, not another 10+ pages of exposition with some pictures here and there :P
Well I guess I should accept it at this point and enjoy it for what it is. At least we got a bear cut in half.

WE WERE THIS CLOSE TO A HEADPAT DAMMIT!!!

I bet whenever something like this finally happens, the door will open or something of that sort :P

That was weirdly straightforward... the story so far really is pretty much the title

I feel stupid not realizing that it probably was a kiss, at least I have the comments to figure it out for me

The women's armor bit did get a chuckle out of me... but then I reread the first chapter and Tanya wears something similar the whole time (although the author just bring less attention to it, and I guess it's harder to tell in black and white what's showing sking and what is not), so why did Laplace only notice it just now?

I must say, the forehead stamping is a novel interpretation of the typical fake-out "deep, meaningful glance that doesn't turn into a kiss" scene.

I lost it at this point, this series is too funny

Honestly, Fuuka looked like she knows she already lost :P
I think things are going towards a reasonably happy ending... but in the meantime it seems everyone involved will be absolutely miserable.

I echo the sentiment of really unnatural dialogue, and I think it's more likely just author's writing than any in-universe explanation :P

And I dunno, from the whole chapter I get that feeling of everything being slightly artificial, characters explaining exactly how they feel and why (whether in internal monologues or directly) etc. It's just enough of this stuff to slightly irk me, but it might be interesting nonetheless.

I think this one is weirder than usual since the initial reason just seems to be "for shits and giggles" :P

Ah, but it's not just "for shits and giggles", it's for science an essay series.

My understanding of the story is the essay thing happened afterwards :P

Basically, step 1:

Step 2: married

Step 3: essay

This continues to be the weirdest premise for a yuri manga ever. "I'm married to you, but no homo". What's even the point?

Are people really that unfamiliar with the “marriage before love” trope? I’ve seen so many different series that all use this (mostly cnovels or historical/fantasy) where they get married out of convenience, for political reasons, to get parents off their back, because its an arranged marriage, of for a myriad of other reasons. This premise definitely isn’t the most far fetched use of the trope either.

They paid so much attention to that supposedly killed kid by now that there's gotta be something up with it... expecting some twist on that but unsure of what kind :P

Well, the line between caring and overprotective can be thin sometimes... that's not even factoring in that they have this platonic marriage thing going on, which is the whole shtick of the story.

Huh didn't really expect after seeing the title that it's about physical pain...
... but also I doubt they will elaborate on that part of it too much :P

That whole subplot about the pink girl is so vague (we get very little information every once in a while), that I kinda don't care about her anymore :P The payoff better be good because so far she just takes away the focus from the actual main characters, for some yet undetermined reason.

"completely and utterly alone" except for your meddling ass ;)

edit: also I almost missed there is a chapter 74 because that title is nearly the same...

Everything has a cause... but I doubt we'll get to know what it is :P

... does the "to-do" joke work in the original the same way? I was like "no way this works the same in Japanese" and then she actually got mad

lmao didn't expect everyone in the comments to be so mad after reading this

I see everyone is pretty optimistic here... but so far it seems to me this unironically deserves the nonexistent "Super Friends" tag :P

(Although it's still a nice read either way.)

Having a beeper to summon a lady with a sword to defend you is some crazy stuff

I understood nothing of this :P I'm not even sure which characters were the focus in some panels...

She also said in one of the early chapters that she "finally made a close friend", and then we had that whole short-lived plotline that she actually didn't think of herself as such... which was completely reversed right after. She doesn't seem like a particularly stable person :P
