Is this the first time we see their mom?

AFAIK yes, at least going by the wiki. Other characters have parents listed as Family: Unnamed mother if they've shown up before, but none of the Oomuro sisters have their mom listed yet, which I'm assuming is because this chapter is the first time she's appeared.

My heart...

Also, we finally got the punchline to Beartrice.

Good ol' NozoNico.

Has yuri gone too far... or not far enough?

Uh, I haven't played FGO in a while but isn't that Mata Hari?

RIP Pinkie.

Oh nice, I've actually been looking forward to this ship even since the end of AoCF where (if I'm remembering it right) Jo'on starts to live at Hijiri's temple.

Finally got around to reading this chapter. Hooray for Claire showing her dere side! The ending's another pretty big change from the novel - originally, Rei didn't interrupt Thane's headpats. But in this version, not only does Rei accidentally clam-jam Claire, Claire doesn't even get mad at her at all, Claire lets slip how worried she was for Rei.

Between this and the end of chapter 7, the manga does seem to be having their relationship progress slightly faster than the original source's slowburn, though it's still probably too early to tell for sure. Either way, I'm all for it.

^Hollomaru has drawn a lot of aged-up Abigail x Gudako art, some of which is on her Pixiv while others are on her Twitter.

Ah, this one-shot never gets old.

Ooshima Harry? Have there always been Ooshima or is that a new thing?

Shilling for Sora & Haena, a very wholesome and cute Korean webcomic. It features the kinda cliché "Honor Student x Delinquent" couple but the main characters' relationship is still pretty great, especially considering the developments happening in the last couple of chapters. Also I kinda feel bad that I accidentally read the entire thing on a pirated website; I thought they were done by an actual scanlation group and found out it was an actual official translation after finishing it.

^Technically, that's her minimum age - it really depends on how old Schwarz was when she became a mercenary. Her profile mentions she was six when she got infected, but it's unclear how long it was between that and her becoming a mercenary.

Oh nice, I've been looking forward to this one coming back on Dynasty. This series always gave me the biggest mixed feelings (but like, in a good way, if that makes any sense).

^Surprisingly, yes, there is.

Finally got around to finishing all of the extra episode 6 levels and 7-18! RIP Patriot. That last fight against him (and the fight against Frostnova in H6-4) were really hard and took me several tries. True to canon, Amiya helped a lot against Patriot so I'm glad I E2'ed her.

Welp, that's one way to solve a love square. Though it probably helps when 3/4 of the square are technically the same person.

Glad to see this picked up again; I'd nearly forgotten about these two dumb-dumbs.

Also, does anyone have a link to the raws? Mangadex had one but that site's down at the moment.

The drunkard x bartender ship - it just makes sense.

Marisa's happy, smiling face staring directly at us viewers is kinda terrifying.

Those glasses are really doing it for Claire, huh.

Wait, so at the end irl, is Noushiro still dating that Yabe guy? Turn him down? Going to cheat on him?

My interpretation of it is that the "dream" was some supernatural event trying to push the protag towards her true love because she was getting too close to letting her pass her by out of the mistaken belief that she had no chance.

The dream girl's confession that she broke up with her boyfriend was probably really true and the protag just wasn't aware, so the dream told her as a way of nudging her towards going for it. (IE: GO GET YO' GIRL)

The other girl's reaction to the protag missing a day of work was suspiciously strong for someone not in love. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

That's more or less my take on it - the ending's ambiguous on just how much was a dream (and how much Noushiro actually knows) but it's ultimately optimistic on them getting together in the future (maybe on their trip next week...?)

^True, I just like the idea of Ganyu, a ~4000 year old warrior that fought against giant monsters and literal gods, getting all flustered and blushy around hot ladies.

This has a side story/sequel here: https://mangadex.org/title/62480/in-a-home-where-lilies-bloom

^Oh, you're right. Nevermind then (though they still look good in them)
