"my Crush" Dying in Gay Panic

Before you get too excited, the original word was "my Oshi." The scanlators like to translate it to "crush" for this series but Oshi is actually used to refer to an artist you love and support

That's a common use, yes. Dictionary definition "one's favourite (member of an idol group, character in an anime, player in a team, etc.)"

But the extremely yuri "(I Favor/I'm in love with) the Villainess" is titled "Watashi no Oshi Akuyaku Reijou". Literally: "my favorite, the villainness".

I'm disappointed on the story front.

Like, Koto went from 10 MPH to 120 MPH on a toxicity scale. (Don't question my units.) How do you even recover from that? There's bad ideas and then there's BAD IDEAS.

Wonder where Aya will go.

You can have alternating weeks y'know. Michi does laundry on MWF in week 1, on TR in week 2, repeat.

Why doesn't anyone think the girl wearing glasses is Mashiro's rival?

Because Nagisa doesn't even remember who she is, and took immediate steps to re-affirm her bond with Mashiro?

New Girl might want to be a rival but doesn't look like she'll get far.

Soooo....not Yuri?

Just one woman being unable to keep her eyes off the other, and committing murder for her on short notice.

Also wtf senpai's hair was mint blue???? I always assumed she was blonde

I would just call that green myself, but I'd assumed the same thing. Hair color jumpscare.

On discord someone suggested that the blacked out page is actually about them flying somewhere for more whirlwind brothel touring. Quite possibly "I've never done it before" is simply about them flying on a plane.

Sakura wishing to make Chinese food is a gesture to invite Rin to tutor her

Thanks for this, and all your other commentary!

Komaki doesn’t get to decide her feelings are of love

Actually, yes she does. Because they're her feelings.

Wakaba is equally free to decide that Komaki's behavior is unacceptable, though she has not in fact done so.

Decent year for me so far. Sorry to hear yours is bad.

If you want something like an online community, joining the Discord might be better.

I just noticed that both Nae and Ibu seem to be clutching Umi's arms, though in different ways.

Yeah, I dunno how reliable it is, but I saw some video of young women in Japan being asked if they'd be okay with their boyfriend using a sex worker, and several said yes. "Better than cheating on me."

Ah at last, now the rest of us get to suffer the angst hinted at in the censored blocks. \o/

(Seriously, thank you.)

I wonder if this is the first yuri manga ever with an autistic mc?

I'd be surprised, but I dunno. Credits page says it was published in 2012, so it thrashes Blue Star On That Day's Shou Segawa.

...assuming the character in this one is autistic, which I dunno.

I don't even recall who Ao's gusher is.

This is a pretty niche problem, I imagine, but it's hopefully worth reporting. I use a pretty old tablet (a 10-year-old third-gen iPad) to read on, most of the time, and yesterday morning, it worked fine. Yesterday evening, not so much. I can see the cover/preview image for a series, and the thumbnails for associated images, but if I open a chapter or click on a thumbnail, I just get a blank box with a page number like "1" or an image id like "namename1207-img." I know losing compatibility comes with using ancient tech, but I'm hoping this won't be a permanent sadness.

I've never used an iPad. What's the bottleneck? Can you install a new version of Firefox or Chrome?

Should work better now, after complaining on Discord.
