One of my fictional series ever. And I constantly find myself saying "who?" when images pop up. Especially yuri ones. Something's not right.

Shamefully I only know one of these characters . . . from the fighting game. And she's awesome!

Not a fan but if it's mutual or floats your boat or whatever, don't mind me.

Nice!

This is one gag I have yet to tire of.

This has been great. Can't wait to buy it when it's released in the U.S!
Even if she hasn't figured it all out now, I think she now knows how to go about getting he help she needs. Hopefully she's found great confidants among all the people she's opened her world up to a little since the sharing her story.

Wow. Can't hate this! plus. I love cats! All the little cat tip annotations crack me up.

marvelous!

I thought it was pretty good though I wouldn't be surprised if some said this story has been told plenty of times already. Even if I can't personally remember too many specific examples myself.

Feels a bit awkward but I do love delinquents! The other girl is pretty damn cool too.

Wow! What stuff. I can't see Touko's problem being resolved with out a scene that is pretty dramatic but will likely pleased even if it isn't.

Don't know if I have the best read on everything but watching Yuu, seemingly, fall in love has been one of the sweetest things I've ever seen in a yuri. All the subtle changes. I don't say things like this often about a story! Just the fact that the confessions happened early and let us watch things develop has made this an amazing tale.

I wish there was so much content for me to consume that there would be some real competition here but there's not.

So sad, but so true. The lack of original yuri series is agonizing.

whu? I mean I have my hang ups. I'm picky as hell. but I don't think I'd go as far as to call it agonizing. huh.

This might depend on how much time you have on your hands. I currently have too much free time and not enough money so there needs to be a LOT of content to begin ruling things like this out. I mean, if there was as much Harlequin Romance for lesbians as there are for straight women, I could suddenly be a lot choosier. ESPECIALLY, if the public library stocked oodles of them like they do Harlequin style books.

So the perception of how good the content flow is is altered by the amount of free time and the ability to fill that free time with other enjoyable things such as money for outings, close proximity to friends (okay I moved to a place with no one immediately in my age group and no money soooo this has been trashed), available dates, etc.

Writing this has made me think maybe I should go to the library and check out some straight Harlequins even though I have zero interest in dating men.

Don't do it! Not because you shouldn't read straight romance, just that Harlequins (and actually, most mass-market Western romance) are crap. Read some straight Josei or shoujo manga or something instead.

Writing quality as such aside, Harlequins aren't really romance. What they are typically is a sort of wish-fulfillment, typically through a patriarchal lens. That is, they fulfill the "wish" of women to land the ultimate male--big, strong, rich, forceful, the undisputed boss of the chimp troop. "Fifty Shades of Grey" is actually a pretty typical Harlequin except the dominance themes are more explicit. And what the female leads feel for these males is typically not, or not mainly, love. Generally it is lust, passion, a magnetic attraction to the dominant qualities of this male, combined with gratification that they were the one chosen and often a certain triumph at putting a leash on the big wild game. Often in fact attention is drawn to their active dislike of the person's actual personality, which they get over because they cannot resist the animal magnetism schtick. In a way it's love as greed, very much the romance of unbridled capitalism.

There is a strand in romance manga that can be kind of this way, but it's not dominant. And even the bad ones--there have been some Harlequins that were translated into romance manga, and when you read one of those you really see the difference. Most shoujo and even josei romances actually focus on emotion and personal connection. There's something sweet and touching about many of them that just isn't part of the Harlequin-et-al formula at all.

heh. And some comment here I glanced at a week ago had me wondering if romance was at all something I should bother reading given all my hang ups and particulars!

Another enjoyable chapter. Way to use the old friend of a friend thing. The ending was funny. That surprise relationship may only be surprising in that it was revealed so soon.

Oh. And I'd like to thank all the translators! Even if I don't like the title. I hope someday you are all immortalized in a manga about translating manga. To save to world! (of course)

I ph-king love that Kobayahshi doesn't look like a typical anime girl. Actually. I always kinda thought she looked like the lead from the webcomi MegaTokyo.

It's a hyperbole.

Doh! Sorry.

huh.
only siblings I've ever wanted kinda wanted to see together are the Farron sisters of Final Fantasy 13. kinda.
though in my imaginings I mostly wish they weren't sisters. I won't argue with anyone who thinks Lighting is one of the worst conceptualized and written leads around. I still like her for some reason though.

This one never ceases to be good!
and wow! Even when it's not used as a prelude to a dumb love triangle, jealousy in these kind of stories tends to get on my nerves but this(so far) is so well done! It looked to me like nothing more than well warranted admiration and kodus but it did give our other lead a start, eh? And crack-shot girl seems like a real sweetie.

I think the drunk thing has been enough but what we got out of was still a really sweet scene. The supporting characters are turning out to be fun too. I actually like this story more than the ones that go along with some of the profile pics in this thread.

Not finding this appealing so far.

It's alright. Even if the art isn't really to my liking. And the one with the lighter hair color resembles a personality type I don't much care for. I guess I like that they kissed already. I mean that's not a stickler for me. it just feels like the relationship might start sooner I suppose.

Just so beautiful! Love the expressions.

wOAH! So much awesome! Female knights are boss! The armor is terrific. Great action. And did they say rich girls? Chances of a posh ojousmama that turns out to be a jerk with a heart of gold increased! Though the closest we get may be Ume. She eve has hair and a bow like Karin from Street Fighter. She seems like fun in her own right though.

That was a good laugh. Art is good too.

I-I can't . . . seeeeee. Where's my step stool? Seriously though. Diana is such a great character and this pair would be great fun.

Sure felt like a lot even though it was only a few pages.

This really should get a continuation. Watching a relationship develop between these two would be so much fun.
