Naked (sexy?) bath times is not what I expected Kanda's big reveal to lead to, but I'm into it.

Certainly didn't expect the confession to speed things up instead of causing problems, yeah. :D

I'm having horrible murderous feelings I'd rather not have...

Kamu thinking Hana was actually younger than them was quite a surprise. :D

And before I forget to mention it again, it was also fun to see Shima comment on Hino and Nagafuji being suspiciously close.

She sure is troublesome... :D

Well, I'm sure Shima would do exactly that if it becomes necessary. Pretty much did with the call. It's just easier to get Adachi to listen when she can back up her words by showing that Adachi is indeed special to her.

I want to say I hope Shimamura won't be TOO accomodating. That Adachi took her away from talking to Hino and Nagafuji is ludicrous and she should be told acting like that is too much.

Well, that was exactly why she came up with the lunch exchange idea, as well as the kiss. To give Adachi the confidence in their relationship that she needs to stop becoming jealous of every meeting or phone call.

Chidori, you just got out of the bath, put on your PJs, and the only place you're going is to bed. Why on earth would you put that ankle bracelet back on? Really committing to the look, girl.

It's not about the look. Remember.

I kinda thought the "handholding = sexxx" joke was a thing of the English-speaking world... but lately I'm seeing more and more yuri manga where the Japanese author plays with the idea that caressing each other's hands is super lewd and erotic and borderline orgasmic...

Is it a case of a Western meme being imported in Japan, or what?

Possibly. Could also be that whole "lesbians use their fingers for naughtytimes" thing too, lol

Actually (as attested to in a discussion in the Futaribeya thread at some point last year) the meme originated in an anime. It didn't quite take off in Japan though, but it did in certain foreign audiences, especially on this site. Then, recently, it seems to have been re-imported into Japan.

Do you happen to know which anime it is? Kinda wanna see what inspired the whole thing.

Found the post.

Fully embracing the meme.

Always.

Very nice. ^_^

Adorable. ^_^

Wholesome

Honestly, my one reaction to Chidori's advice to Mai was that Chidori being a truly good person like this was exactly why Mai knew she had no chance come between them and even went as far as to encourage Chidori before the trip despite her own feelings.

Mai x Manager NOW

Also, I guess Mai's arc got the good ending - she didn't destroy a relationship and she's setup for a relationship with the manager.

Glad its just not me seeing that in the future :-)

From the moment the manger first appeared, there was no question about it. * nods *

She made LINE stickers! So cute!

So cute indeed. ^_^

^It's not, but the setting itself is based on an in-universe VN

Adorable. ^_^

No, Sakihara-san, you misunderstand. She doesn't need you to make her fall in love with you, there's no need for that anymore - she just needs to know that you to love her as well.

Well, bringing those friends along is an easy way to ensure you will not see a flying horse, since she'll be standing right beside you in human form. On the other hand, keeps Uni safe from being seen, though. :D

the boyfriend theme doesn't make sense! When Marika was taken to the world where there are men, she was 8 years old. How could Marika from that world have a boyfriend at that age and that there were misunderstandings?

It's not that she had a boyfriend at that age (although it would not be that unusual), but that her boyfriend from that world remembered meeting her when they were younger, similarly to how Marika remembered meeting Lily.

Honestly, while it seems just a bit rushed, the ending still feels very much perfect. Any additions, like Marika's time settling things in the other world or the contents of the other Marika's letter to the little sister would only drag things out unnecessarily while adding nothing of real substance, it's just nice to see these matters solved and our main couple finally reach their happy ending. ^_^

Did not expect the blatant uncensored sex scene on the final page, though.

I'm really disappointed that she hasn't yet, she was so determined to.

/rubs hands together and maniacally cackles in QC

We'll just assume this is your default mode all the time.

^Entirely possible, although so far she's managed to avoid the doom flags.
