Finally gave this a try and I gotta say this is a very fun manga to follow, but at the same time, it's very frustrating. The sudden appearance of the villainous duo didn't help with that and completely shifted the premise of the whole deal, and I won't lie, I don't much like it.

I thought it would be about becoming a better person or some corny stuff like that with the "seeing death" part being both the pull-in as well as the "igniter" for all that to happen.
I don't mind the over-the-top reasoning for the prez duo to be the way they are, as someone mentioned a few times, this manga is pretty bonkers in its own way, so it's fitting. I also understand why such character(s) exists in a story like this. To show a "what if" scenario, a mirrored version of what you could do with such stuff. I'm not sure how seeing dead bodies help you kill people and get away with it but... I mean, sure.

The issue I have with it is that it stuck for too long and it seems like it's becoming some kind of an ongoing thing. Like the manga shifts towards some odd death-note territory. And if that's the goal here to change into that kind of thing, no amount of cute moments between Satsuki and Akira will save it.

I mean licking the same lollipop? They're basically married now.

This seems like a fun series to come, I'll stick around for it.

Finally, those two got here. The highlight of the entire Kazimierz arc

MapleStory and its secret yuri plots when you pick the "non-canon" gender

Aw, it's over. It was such a lovely, short story. Short or not, it was still amazing

And here we have the moment this series turns meh for me. Well, it still "depends" but I'll play the glass half-empty card. So far, this series was a very smooth, albeit visible progression between the two. The progress itself was based on relatable things and they solved it somehow by themselves (with some input from family or friends obviously).

I don't know, it just felt refreshing to have a series with a bit of more smooth sailing towards the progress, but not without some dark clouds here and there. I'd hate to drop this after so long just because of that. Or have to skip bigger chunks of it just to avoid rolling my eyes out of their sockets.

Unless it won't be permanent (or even semi-permanent) or something actually happened to Rio and we'll get a side character progression. Even if I frankly don't care much for her.

I thought this manga was purposely all about abusing overplayed tropes

The science of shipping

I've been so far with this manga and yet I still have no idea what this manga is about...

That reading books is gay and we all should do it more

Darn, the whole Rhine Lab thing just got finished translating and it was such a wild emotional ride. While I avoided this ship in the past, it made me reconsider.

Can those two have something nice happen to them? And I mean something actually nice. Sure, some good stuff happens from time to time, but it always feels like a ray of sunshine after a tornado storm or something. They deserve it after everything. I know the date will end up the same way and it'll get saved in some way later on, but... Just... Something from start to end that would work out.

Can't wait for the whole Rhine Lab comic to get translated to read it in one go.

Edgy donkey or overcompensating (for thin tail) crocodile? Hm... Tough choice. Guess I'll stick with my Light infused knight pegasi and her amazing family.

No, but really, jokes aside, this is an amazing piece. One of the few solid pairs/"ships" in Arknights

Eh, this is an okay ending. Could be a bit more fleshed out, but it's fine as it is.

We can't have nice things because they go over people's head

This reminds me of that "Dead man walking" song by city wolf.

Just the right amount of cute, funny, and sexy. Love it.

I forgot about this. Then I questioned myself why I forgot about this. If I forget about it again after this chapter tho' I'll really start questioning myself. Regardless this is great and I love it.

I loved this. Power Rangers got me into sentai shows and as I mentioned before, this isn't even a parody anymore, this captures it all too well. At the same time, adds its own little spin on things. "Theme" if you will.
It was extremely cheesy and in the best way possible. I enjoyed it from the start to the end. Hope there are some bonus/extra chapters.

What's going on. Is Franka flying or is this in the middle of some motion or what. While I want to enjoy this, my brain is 2confuse

Before I was like "this isn't yuri" but after seeing Miss Sunflower not being able to focus on a book because she was thinking about Matsuri? True love. Soulmates even. No buts about it. (Its a joke pls no bully)

Cool, I didn't know sexual corruption was a thing in yuri.

Radish Suplex

I was starting to get worried that I was the one with the weird mindset when I thought to myself "But isn't your relationship part of your future too". I'm also not so sure if this is a proper way to talk things out. I mean it all boiled down to "yolo this is an issue for us in the future".

Tbh I'm not sure what to think. This manga was always about those two having issues to "find a moment" for themselves. So it wouldn't be that odd if they ended up separated again. Which they did class-wise already. The same goes for a distant relationship or even a breakup, I don't think this is the kind of manga that would do that. Mostly because I uh... I don't really think the side characters are THAT interesting. I don't mind them, but uh... Yeah.

With all that in mind, I just gotta assume this is a bait moment, especially with the different classes they got. I mean, I don't wanna throw in the "maybe it's a cultural thing" but that "school picking" thing is also pretty unreasonable. I dunno, all this is just head scratching.

I feel like it’s so hard to pin down what makes for a good slow burn. There are a bunch of elements that contribute to the pacing and the balance between progress and the status quo. I do know that this story is really nailing it for me in spite of my impatience for them to kiss lol

Also, I have my Pinecone completely maxed out. What a good bird :)

There are just a lot of stories where nice things happen and the story itself progresses but there are either no changes for the characters or the opposite happens the characters have such a sudden shift in certain parts, that it doesn't feel like the character is growing. Like it's not evolution, it's revolution. I mentioned "Miss Sunflower" and it's done in a very fluid way over there. Like it takes re-reading the series to really notice and fully appreciate how things changed for everyone. Here, while it's a bit more gradual, like taking steps, the steps themselves are so small it doesn't feel like the character(s) are leaping.

And yes, Cutecone is best birb. While I have her e2 I do wish I had more mats to spare to at least get her s1m3, alas Pinus Sylvestris happened and I had to take care of all those little knights
