The yuri tag on this manga is meaningless. This manga really feel like a documentary on japonese's prostitution rather than a story about a rookie who work in a brothel.
I was expecting to get something like https://dynasty-scans.com/series/i_wouldnt_mind_being_loved but not. I'm not saying it's bad. But I don't feel invest in the story.

I'm afraid I have to agree. So far, there's no real sense of yuri in this story. It feels more like a comedy about an office worker who gets involved with the behind-the-scenes for sex work than yuri. The only times we see the MC interact with other girls, they're either too brief or too casual.

The story itself is low-energy, and the buildup is super slow. It's a fantastic change of pace, but calling it yuri, or even shoujo-ai, is sort of a stretch...

this is the only manga i know recently that the explicit parts can make me nearly explode with feelings BUT it's the fluff parts that can actually kill me. how did this madman artist balance this perfection?

Balancing horny with wholesome is such an impressive skill to have...there are precious few authors/artists these days who can actually pull it off.

The tension between them is palpable

The tension is so thick you could play it like a violin...

No second chances to assholes!

Nanase should know better!

I dunno...I think this time, the girl's legit serious about being friends. Not that her past actions are excusable in anyway - she rightfully bears the blame for this new awkward distance - but I think she really does want to try and patch things up this time.

I don't have a single clue what's going on but I absolutely love it. I'm sticking with this one!

Yeah, no, that went from an 8 to a 0 very fast. I like the art style but the decline in their writing is way too steep to handle.

Well, now...it's always nice to see marshmallows squeezed together.

I do wish we had gotten a longer epilogue. Maybe some day somebody might make a doujin showing their lives once Mayuki turns 18?

At this point there's just one thought lingering in my head...if Ayaka and Sora's relationship is supported by Ayaka's family and acknowledged by Sora's mom...what's stopping Ayaka from temporarily moving in with Sora?

It's beyond me how people can defend Hima, i get she wants her friends to get along but that's just intrusive, even shiho is mad. I can't stand people that believe they're above all conflict and can solve everyones problems , like dude just let them figure out their problems by themselves . It's fine to give advice but it's annoying when You start meddling in people's problems

If Shiho had dropped her tough girl facade and told Aki the truth from the start Hima would have never gotten involved in the first place. If anything, the fact that Shiho won't listen to anyone just makes it worse. You can't blame Hima for trying to put out a wildfire - even if she's only using a water balloon.

Shiho thinks that by crushing Aki and her band she can somehow impress the pain she felt onto Aki, but all she's doing is digging her own grave. Her pride is higher than a satellite and she's more stubborn than a mountain - if anything, I wouldn't have done the nice thing Hima did. I'd have just slugged her one.

This felt like it's been going on for long time... Then you realise, IT'S ONLY ON CHAPTER TWENTY! This is actually a pretty short series but because of chapter release rate, it feels triple the length. Probably ending soon but it has been good.

Ahhhh no don’t jinx it! I want this one to make it to at least 40 chapters!

That's what it feels like! Every time we're on a happy ending, something else pops up. I'm excited to see what else these two plan on doing!

Y'know...I sort of hope this never gets a NSFW doujin or bonus. It just seems too pure to slap any kind of sex appeal on it. At least not without fluffy, romantic context to go with it.

Give me a series of this.

I second that motion. All others in favor say Aye.

AYE!!

I'm really sad to see this dropped....I do hope someone else can come in to translate this.

Shiho is a cup of strawberry flavored toxins poured into a dainty wine glass. Seriously.

At this point there's precious little foundation to like her, but going as far as to "claim" Miss Puppy (Hima) as her prize is going too far. The writer has no choice but to make Shiho fail or else they risk bombing the entire plot and ruining the setup they've established up to this point.

Noooo, you can't leave it on a cliffhanger like this! The story is so good!

Meanwhile, I just want to know...is it possible to make a cake that good without going overboard with the fruit?

Jokes aside, I really do hope we see more of these two in the future! Their story isn't a giant vegetarian buffet like Kase-san, nor is it a multi-layered wedding cake like Citrus. It's short, simple, and with just the right amount of sweetness - sort of like a morning crepe!

Oh my gloard, girl, JUST GO FOR IT!!!

Man...there's no winning against Matsuri. She's just too smart.

Also, Mei, the whole "I'm your present" idea? DO IT!

I have....SO many questions right now. Namely, what dafuq just happened??

Oh my god, she's hitting on you so hard you useless lesbian! Just ask her out already!!

NEED MORE!! I love this couple!

And thus, she VERY rapidly becomes the next ULMC. Noice.

Uh oh. UH OH. Yuri havoc is to be had!

Meanwhile, I can't help but wonder if other diets will be mentioned in this series. I know the Paleo diet is effective but its super expensive to maintain, and the Keto diet is good but risky for folks who are diabetic because of the risk of keto acidosis...

But even putting that aside, the personalities bounce off of each other nicely and they have a strong relationship already! I'm absolutely loving this!
