I'm getting tired of reading his stuff

Then don't. Problem solved. No need to throw around baseless generalizations.

... I know that, I just happened to read it because I keep tabs on his work. Maybe the comment should have been written more like constructive criticism, but whatever. Sorry bout that.

The only baseless generalization was the thing about his "dedication to his fetishes," which I suppose I should have left out, but everything else was either my opinion or my observation of Asagi's work as a whole.

... I don't even like the romance that much, just the prospect of having an epic mecha battle with my brother and CRUSHING HIM.

Wait, why would your brother be driving a mecha? Surely that's for girls?

Weeeell, he's gay. Maybe that's why he's drawn to something THAT'S SO OBVIOUSLY GIRLY.

I'd still crush his ass. He can't even fight his way out of a Pokemon battle, poor thing.

Asagi Ryuu's a bit of a one trick pony isn't he. ALWAYS big boobs. ALWAYS age-gap. ALWAYS scissoring. ALWAYS watersports. And not one bit realistic at all. I'm getting tired of reading his stuff what with the lack of imagination/dedication to his fetishes.

... I wish the mangaka would explain the backstory more. Well, I'm mostly wondering WHAT KIND OF FUCKING WORLD TRAINS SCHOOLGIRLS TO RUN MECHA SHIT? AND WHY AREN'T THEY DESCRIBING SUCH AN AMAZING WORLD?! AND HOW CAN I GO LIVE IN IT?!?!?!

Considering that the story is opened with Yuzu finding out her new stepdad came with a new stepsister you can bet that they'll keep mentioning the (somehow?) unknown relationship they find themselves in. So yeah, psuedo-incest is kind of a large theme in the story.

:D

That's not something you have the right to complain about. YP has caught up with the series and the next raw will be released in 2 weeks. After that it has to get translated, edited, QCed, and whatever else. It is also illegal for these people to get paid for their work, so it's their just their hobby. A goddamn frustrating one too what with bitches like you complaining.

I assume you didn't know any of this ^ but now you do.

:D

did i seem to anal to you?
i didn't mean to sound like i'm complaining for your information
i wasn't also referring to YP in general

anyway i wonder what's up next for kurashiki and fujiwara
i hope fujiwara would learn to open up to kurashiki :)

I gave you the info because I wanted to. And I realize you weren't referring to them, but it pisses me off when people ask stuff like, "I wish the releases were faster :(((" To me it sounds like, "RAAAAAH HURRY UP BITCHES I'M IMPATIENT AS FUCK CUZ THIS IS ONE HELLA SERIES AND YOU OBVIOUSLY HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO THAN SATISFY THE NEEDS OF A RANDOM PERSON ON THE INTERNET!!!"

That's all.

:D

I was kinda hoping for a new chapter but this is fine too. How often does this publish again? Bi-monthly?

Doesn't matter. There's only one chapter left plus whatever extras are in the second tank.

Dynasty/Michan?

Oh how you wound us...Mich takes all the credit again ever since the Michan-sama thing

Weeelll, I made that bet thinking there was no way the marathon would last 5 days cuz I thought it was primarily just Michan-sama doing it, but then everyone joined in.

Obviously I lost. But I don't think he's taking all the credit, really, it's just my fault that "Michan-sama" became a thing.

Sorry!! (∫ ˘ ▽ ˘ )∫

There's seven major characters in the story and all of them have a distinct appearance (different hair anyway, but it's manga shut up) and personality, and people need to apparently reread it several times to understand what's happening even though it doesn't seem like it's that hard to follow.

This reminds me of people who whine about Game of Thrones being confusing.

Yeah, they've got different hair but Amano's drawing style is not very... diverse? Is that the right word? Anyway, all her characters look the same to me even though they've got different hair. She's the only mangaka whose art confuses me like this, and usually the characters in manga have more differences in appearance than just their fucking hair, so I don't know what you're talking about.

No. I'm not the biggest fan of Amano to begin with and somehow this still manages to disappoint me. It's a confusing, disjointed mess with a cast too big for its own good and that's not being helped by sameface artwork. And so far the plot is insipid. Amano can do better than this and it's just the beginning so I'll give it a chance but this might turn out to be the first series in a while I'll drop.

Agreed. When I saw how many characters were in this I thought she would do something similar to Sweet Guilty Love Bites, but no. Of course there's more drama this way and different couples can interact with each other, but it takes too much energy for me to try hard and figure it out. Amano isn't my favorite either.

They said that Koume was in a relationship with herself.

Made me think of Facebook.

This manga comes from Morinaga Milk, who managed to extend a love relationship between an imbecile and a woobie during 36 chapters. This is certainly way inside her comfort zone.

You are now my hero.

I love her work and all but seriously "the idiot and the woob" is her niche.

The fuck's a woobie?

It's garbage. It would be one thing if it was a massive satirical work on the tropes and misogynistic characters of other manga ala Voltaire, except it's NOT. It's like example number one of those things. Anyone who read this and thought there might have been redeeming parts needs to step back and look at the whole work's message as a whole and critically think about it.

Well, as a quality story about good and evil and the perception of both, it does suck. Badly. The message itself is misogynistic and unacceptable, and in the end everyone is forgiven-- all the boys and Tsuki, which essentially negates everything they did wrong and says that it's forgivable to do terrible things if you were just doing them because your boss told you to, or that everyone else was doing it.

But I don't look at it as something actually applicable to society. I think it's fucking ridiculous. I think it takes an overly optimistic view of abusers and victims, and the reason it happens in the first place. Morals are completely absent in this work, which is why I can't take it seriously on any level.

But at the same time I kind of like how it was told. I am able to detach the meaning from the story and look at the one part I liked, how it was told, and I am able to say I liked it. Maybe I'm completely wrong this story doesn't deserve to be liked in any shape or form, but I find myself enjoying it a little.

I just finished it.

Although I hate the entire premise of this story, what with the whole, "Women are objects and must be treated as such" theme, I found myself liking it at the end. I can see why people would hate that the guys didn't get punished but I'm able to forgive that for some reason. I thought the story was told well, and I liked how I couldn't predict the ending.

Coincidentally Shoujou has the same hairstyle as me. Not sure how I feel about that...

Why yuri is so good? 28 May 15:22

I like yuri because when I feel like reading about love I can almost never do it with a het couple. I'm ok with gay and lesbian couples but het couples tend to annoy me. And then on top of that I don't like most yaoi stuff because it's mostly sex, so that leaves me with yuri. At least when it comes to manga.

my name is Moderath and I'm addicted to funny yuri series and oneshots. I especially like image gap stories.

Edit: I also have an odd yuri twincest fetish. Forgot that.

Geez louise people it's not that difficuy to grasp!!

The money was representative of her nasty past, of her time spent selling her body for money, a time which she is ashamed of and doesn't want to be reminded of anymore. So to cleanse herself of her guilt of it, she throws all her dirty money away, allowing her to start a fresh life with her new love and move on from it. If she relied on that money anymore, whether for food or for gifts or for dates or ANYTHING, then she would still feel the guilt.

And if anyone replies to this going UM WHY WOULD SHE THROW MONEY AWAY???!! SHE COULD SPEND IT ON THINGS LIKE SHOES AND STUFF AND GIFTS then i will ram my fist up your butthole for missing the point of the story completely.

UM WHY WOULD SHE THROW MONEY AWAY???!! SHE COULD SPEND IT ON THINGS LIKE SHOES AND STUFF AND GIFTS!

Yes, I am a dick. You're welcome.

Michan-sama, is your ass ok?

But what is there to fear of money? Money is a tool for you to buy stuff with it, either today or in the future (delayed consumption). Why is it "an anchor", and why is it getting rid of it "a way to cleanse one's past"?

It's symbolic. She got that money from being a prostitute and she never knew what love was. Now that she has someone she loves she won't be a prostitute anymore, and she feels uncomfortable using the money she made through the prostitution, so she gets rid of it as a symbol of her moving on.

Did you you just try to say Canada is a powerful nation? Good one. What's the last useful thing to come out of canada? Scrabble? A rolling beer keg?

Oh, and "behind your back" is just a figure a speech. Because even in my first statement it was a obvious insult right to your face. But it's already obvious by your come that you're "one of those people" and a very sad individual.

On a side note. I don't see why this is getting so much attention. There have been worse things.

  1. Canada does not have to be powerful to be FUCKING AWESOME.

  2. THEY HAVE NATIONAL HEALTHCARE YOU STUPID IDIOT.

  3. Your first statement DIDN'T MAKE SENSE. "you're the country even bullies" TAKE AN ENGLISH CLASS.

  4. YOU USED A GODDAMN STEREOTYPE IN AN UNFUNNY MANNER. DON'T BE SURPRISED IF YOU PISS PEOPLE OFF.

edit: maybe it's more of a generalization than a stereotype, but I digress.
