Every time I re-read this and finish the forth chapter, I go back to the previous chapters to look for clues whether or not Ichige eventually requited Kazuyo's feelings only to come out empty-handed. The only thing that gives me hope is when Ichige scolds Fuu for not telling her love interest about her feelings so Ichige at least is aware of and appreciates Kazuyo's feelings and the fact that they still hang and live door-to-door.

Still, how vexing.

The whole May edition of Mist Magazine it's in is quite good and features interesting authors. So don't stop if you have the time.

Seeing as this is the author's 11th field club fan book, there is hopefully much more to look forward to.

As for more queer material from Korea... Might I recommend A Girl at My Door (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Girl_at_My_Door)? I saw it recently at an Asian film festival. The writing is tight in this movie.

The premise actually makes me want to watch it. Policewomen are great!

Young-nam is tracked to Yeosu by her ex-girlfriend, who asks her to move to Australia with her.

Australia again!? Australia shock

@ halmoni:
Good luck with your exam!

@ the two of you above me:
Thank you for linking to the songs and imgur.

However, after No-rae said "Do as you like. Because I'll be fine with whatever you decide", Seol-a realized that No-rae was thinking about Seol-a's best interest, and not her own needs. She probably wanted to take back what she said about No-rae feeling uncomfortable.

Oh, thank you for the insight. At first, I thought stand-offish No-Rae had surfaced again and what she said was more along the lines of "Suit yourself. I don't care either way."

What a great day, although it's a Monday!

And now for my typical Sunday dilemma:

Should I stay up really late until the translation is done or should I get up really early to read it?

I kind of love this dilemma. No matter which it's gonna be, I'm really looking forward to reading the new chapter. And thank you so much everyone who is active in the FF fandom!

The cashier could be anywhere from 19 to 22 years old, I guess. Suppose she graduated and started working, then the humdrum of the work force could have gotten her within a year.

Although the artwork is really rough, I think it benefits from being consistent in the way characters and facial expressions are done. Their depictions are simple, but you can pick up the vibes and there are no slip-ups. It's kind of like Ratana Satis' immaculate anatomy, just... erm, in a simplistic way.

That knight-in-shining-armor moment. I'm sold!

This happens to me way too often (maybe I subconsciously dislike my own cooking?).

The other couples are in the background on one of the panels of the 27th page.

The nurse and her girlfriend are on the left but who is the couple on the right? And is a woman watching them from behind a tree in the bottom panel on page 29?

Really glad I re-read the whole thing.

I like how Aki has that thin pupil and her eyes looks like cat's eyes :3

But how can she be the active one while in neko mode? jk

^ the second one with the hand puppets is so cute.

Or she's a Lunarian, although that hasn't really been a popular premise in doujin work for a couple of years.

Nazuna's story is told in http://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/the_two_of_us_together_under_the_sky

Nicely spotted. GJ!

Does Hotaru like Yuma or Fujiwara?

Maybe both? Or she's just confused

Well, usually you're not afraid of the people you like.

Takeda is the kind of character that belongs as a protagonist in a harem manga.

Yes, I think it's the self-insert thing and that he is the least active person in the story.

Upon reading up on this, the strangest thing about the 'treatment' is that the potion turns people into the opposite gender in her mind. So there are women sounding male and men sounding female. Why should this be important?

Here's why:
If Soleil thinks her reacting too strongly to cute girls is a hindrance on the battle field (and maybe trying to get to know them outside of it), then you could easily decondition this severe response by step-by-step confrontation with cute girls, e.g. having her look at a painting of a girl, having her know there's a cute girl outside, having a cute girl sit somewhere in the room while Soleil is reading a book, dining together, having her carry around or touch a strand of hair, talking to a girl, touching her - while Soleil is doing something that helps her calm down, ultimately empowering her to approach cute girls while staying composed.

I don't think any of the above would work optimally with men looking like women - maybe it wouldn't even work at all. All the additional vibes you would normally pick up (voice and what it does to you, smell) would be missing. Why you would take away the real stimulus she reacts too strongly to is beyond me.

Oh, and for Soleil, girls should be an unconditioned stimulus (read: it's in her nature to react to girls and she reacts to them with a chance of romantic feelings, this is her unconditioned reaction) and if she ended up liking the male MC because he appeared as a female to her (sans the non-visual input), then the formerly neutral stimulus of a male, which prompted no reaction, became a conditioned stimulus (because it occured together with a female appearence, which is part of her unconditioned stimulus) and because of that also allows for romantic feelings (her conditioned reaction to that male). This is a learned reaction.

The question is whether or not she asked to be taught all that. She wasn't really desensitized to girls, rather she was conditioned to like men. Still pretty kimoi if you ask me, if it's true she dismissed Foleo as a romantic interest upon learning he is male.

looks at post
Definitely one of my stranger posts here. At least it was a good exercise in psychology.

Still, Ooarai might send a different tank crew.

Any more licking and Mutsu's magazine sends her sky-high.

Those who bite off more than they can chew get eaten themselves, apparently.

Nekomura's art is great and you could just love those two to bits. And his Kaga is so moe.

It was just yesterday that I thought I really miss Nekomura's doujin. Thank you!

Isn't Keiko also moving out? Seems like she already sat down with her ex and they decided to try again.

Jägermeister sure is an aquired taste. Clubbing isn't usually something I do but this chapter made me think it might actually be nice once in a while.

Also, oh noes, incoming two-month wait?

uhh why He is My Master tagged as shoujo ai? it's het dammit kissanime

Probably because of yuri crush. Still, it's totally misleading.

@Nez-chan:
Is that going into the forum rules sticky?

I feel I wouldn't have problems abiding to those rules. I've lived in Switzerland for some time and I haven't had strong feelings one way or the other ever since. o7
