Okay, I guess I kinda get the ending. It was instant and complete role reversal. One was pushing her selfish feelings on the other and doesn't know what she wants anyways. Then the other girl decided to pay her back and is from now on going to push her feelings on the other girl, regardless of what she wants.

(I forget the names) The toy was basically the first girl getting what she wanted despite not even knowing what that is.

Honest to goodness question: How the hell am I suppose to imagine the sound "fuah?"
Like, I can't connect that sound with sex noises people make in bed. lol can someone help, cuz that sound just make me laugh and ruins a good sexy manga. (๑◕︵◕๑)

Clumsy girls actually say it in anime. There's nothing to imagine it sounds like it's spelled.

I'm not usually one to reject out there and unrealistic stuff, but this is completely stupid. This is not how minds work. If you're going to go with a hundred fully formed and and somehow independent personalities you gotta pull in some kind of fantasy element. And you kind of have to flesh out how one can start murdering the others without any of them noticing... This is just really really lame.

I find it hilarious Mikanuji just tossed away what was obviously a really stupid turn in the story. She needs to work on making believable conflict to challenge the relationship and build some depth into these two characters. I really like the characters a lot, even if it's been done before. I just wish the story itself was more structured, giving the relationship some more oomph.

The lack of typical cescendo-ing drama is what makes it good dude. Read practically anthing else if you want more ABC melodrama.

This is way too vague, and not just in the conclusion. It's annoying keeping track of who's talking and when/where things are happening. Mangaka seems like they're kind of half-assing the composition.

What a lip slut.

Seako's kind of unbearable though.

She's got nothing to aspire to.

Hope she'd get herself centered a little and see her relationship with Miwa as being more than just something to make her feel good and happy.

I don't think it's bad that she's kind of shallow. It feels authentic and it's kind of fun. i just hope we don't get the oneshot ending.

Even the art is obnoxious. With the stupid looking head shapes and the gummy expressions and inconsistent style. It's like the mangaka puts just enough effort into it to make you annoyed he's polishing balls of shit.

I think there's some sort of Japanese fetish for the suspension of physical relations. It's kind of ridiculous.

Older girl taking her home on the first night just felt like the punchline for the set up "one person here apparently takes girls home with them whenever they go out,be careful!" Except we never really got a payoff/confirmation of that which I thought was kinda weird and instead just went down the cute Yuri road.

Which is great as I love the cute Yuri road, but I was totally expecting older girl to be a player instead of just super crushing on college girl as a bus driver (which is amazing in itself bus driver Yuri YES PLEASE)

I think what I'm trying to say is, I wish we didn't have the drunken mixer as a way for them to have slept together and instead just have them idk flirting on the bus or something

The older girl also mentioned she "was in the same boat" when the younger said she'd been dragged along to make up the numbers... I didn't get the impression she was prowling for girls.

Meh, unrequited love where the other chick leads her on. I got the feeling she didn't take her seriously or really give a shit about her feelings and decided to channel them into her improving her work. This story didn't really do anything for me.

You're most likely right. I was saying it before that editor is the more likely reason for changes in story. Editor is important and can improve the story, but more times than not they sadly actually ruin it or make it less interesting/unique, forcing author to go more mainstream and do things that are proven to work, so they can prolong their series and get all the money they can from it. Sadly nowadays, entertainment business is business first and entertainment second. Trying to write a good story is becoming less and less main focus over making something that will sell well and earn a lot of money. Trying to being safe ruined a lot good stories.

This is basically why I'm reduced to reading a lot of amateurish web serials and fanfiction. Because published stuff is generally safe and sanitary and boring. Though you still get a lot of safe and apologetic crap in amateur work too, sadly...

What do you mean, "two years", mom? Clearly the new bed will be useful for the rest of your lives ...

gross please replace your mattress every couple of years or so XD

Think of the environment dude. Keep your mattress for 10 years or so.

I slept on the same one for like 25 years...

I don't get the thing with "Shouta" at all. If she is getting abused, the teacher shouldn't be going "aw, that's too bad", she should be calling the parents, cops, etc., etc... Stupid...

This manga kind of bores me because it started midrelationship and nobody knows about it. Relationships in a vacuum aren't that interesting.

Never understood why anyone liked this shit to begin with. Worst long running yuri manga ever. Just totally brainless and heartless and nonsensical.

This whole too shy to do anything thing is getting old.

its a bit funny how they communicate... im not sure if its a japanese thing, but theyve been dating for a while and she didnt know where her gf lived lol. and they also only talk through phone mails when they cant go on a date (but i guess thats bc the manga is old? im sure people facetime more these days). and if its not scheduled then you gotta wait for a week or more. when i used to date, we would just pop up at each other’s houses to eat ice cream or talk eijddkmdod

You see it in a lot it manga, I don't have any idea why. Couples that have been together for years without meeting the partner's parents (dad/mom, I'm getting married so I guess it's time to introduce you!). Best friends that have been going to school together for years never visiting the other's house. My guess is it's mostly lazy plotting.

With manga sometimes the artist draws 40 year olds like they're 60 or 60 year olds like they're 40. So... it's hard to tell without more character references the actual age. But they did draw her a bit too old looking for my taste, lol. It's like a 65 year old with a 30 year old.

I never really understand that "oh are you feeling jealous?!" sort of Ah-hah! moments you see in a lot of manga. Of FREAKING COURSE she's feeling jealous. It's like someone has been weeping for 10 minutes and the other person's eye widen in sudden understanding--"Oh are you feeling sad?!"

It's just so dumb. Similar feeling when the other person acts like it's this positive self-validating thing.

Not really a satisfying ending without at least the friend seeing them get together. Needs another chapter.

What pages? Can you link it?

I meant missing as in there should have been a couple more pages to flesh out the resolution.

The manga just oozes stupidity. The art looks dumb. The character are dumb. The plot is dumb. Everything.
