Looks interesting. I didn't know it has a prequel though. Time to read that...

EDIT: Read it. Spoilers for this series in the comments.

Feels bad for Sayaka and Yuu.

Mimika reminds me of Yamada from Kase-san.

I've been looking into bamboos and tigers and found this little gem.


Take ni tora – Bamboo and Tiger – 竹に寅
W. R. van Gulik tells us “In Japan the tiger portrayed among bamboostalks in the wind is known as take ni tora, ‘tiger in bamboo’. This representation is generally taken to symbolize that even most powerful of terrestrial forces, namely the king of all animals, had to yield to the forces of nature.(...)

In 1889 a book on Japanese art by Huish said that the tiger “…is very often depicted in a storm cowering beneath bamboos, signifying the insignificant power of the mightiest of beasts as compared to that of the elements. When merely seen in connection with bamboos, it is so because its power is such that it can transverse a thousand miles at a stride, even through a bamboo forest.”

Merrily Baird on “A tiger sheltering in bamboo. The tiger is said to be the only animal capable of penetrating bamboo thickets, and the pairing of the two is said to represent the weak giving shelter to the strong.”

Canno makes great reaction images.

Just curious: Satake and Torashima has been referred to as The Bamboo and the Tiger. Torashime is easy (tora = tiger) but how does Satake's name equate to bamboo?

I dunno. I'm disappointed with "My Daughter has been Hiding Mother-Daughter Incest Porn Books".

What's to be disappointed with? It delivered exactly what it said it would.

I kinda want more. XD

Tima never disappointed me.

I dunno. I'm disappointed with "My Daughter has been Hiding Mother-Daughter Incest Porn Books".

I was pleasantly surprised by that one.

I thought that one was hilarious. "My own daughter." And like everytime her daughter got close she freaked out "She's gonna have her way with me!! Ahhhhhh"

I wished that either of them went all the way. That's why I'm disappointed. XD

I'm pretty disappointed that she dyed her hair

Hopefully it's only temporary

Spoilers for next chapter: It's a wig.

Artstyle reminds me of Magic Knight Rayearth by CLAMP, especially the eyes and hair.

Also, about this manga...

May the angst be with you

Ugh... I don't think it's appropriate anymore since it's relatively angst-free since they started dating.

Really? They are?

Yes, at least I think so. At the end, Chiharu and Izumi are implied to be dating with the recently released 10.5.

Can i know what chapters use this pairing?

Volume 2 focuses on Chiharu. First with Maya and Ai, then with Izumi.

Want there also an angsty one where like motorbikes were the girls hobby or something? Or was that just a subtext anime? Ack, my brain! Lol ^_^

Girl's Ride?

So I checked it out and it IS Izumi and Chiharu! Thank you so much lenne18 !

No problem. The only reason I remember is because of the update (Thanks MiamMiam-Team!), and Izumi's notable character trait (and that is, riding the bike to school, since walking slowly is preferred in yuri).

Hahahahahahaha omg this is great, im not even surprised
Tfw you forget it's one of the asdfg number of couples in the series xD

To be fair, this couple is seriously lacking in panel time. Even Ayaka and Yurine are more developed than them (and that's saying something).

10.5: That girl with the long hair... Is that Chiharu?

Nah, it's just a girl who loved Maya and that she couldn't love back − which repeated with Chiharu. I'm still not quite sure whether Maya reciprocated Chiharu's feelings for her… this chap is a bit ambiguous on that…

Maya-sempai's popular with the ladies huh? Never thought she'd be the type.

The only manga I remember with a delinquent with long hair and a serious girl with short hair is One who Depicts Love.

If it's not that, then I hope the Delinquent tag helps you.

EDIT: The couple sounds like Izumi and Chiharu from A Kiss and a White Lily.

Wow, Shiramine's mom is such a bitch.

I wouldn't go so far to call her a bitch but being an education mama isn't a good merit either.

Nice character development for Ayaka here. Very, very nice~

Also, I always found it funny how Ayaka sees Mizuki and Moe's relationship.

I never watched this. What was that wheelchair panel about?

It's a reference to the ending of Book 3

For fans of Kindred Spirits on the Roof, this is a must read.

Contains a lot of information not found in the games, Drama CD or the sequel manga.
