Get real.

Charming.

I really hate how people feel the need to argue that a character is not really bi and is actually a "pure" lesbian. As if there is something wrong or dirty about someone being bi.

Yeah, me too. Biphobia sucks and purity culture (in the yuri community and anywhere else) is really stupid. I don't think anyone here did that, though.

Tags are never meant to be moral, ethical, or technical judgements. They're meant to inform readers about the content they're browsing such that they may make educated decisions in choosing to read or not read (and in finding later, with the search mechanism). If one were to argue for the tag, I would ask some of the looking questions. Where in the story does the main character engage with both sexes, sexually or romantically? Is her bisexuality a focus otherwise? What will someone looking for a bisexual character get out of this story? What other arguments may be made that necessitate the tag being used?

Could we not have raging discourse about the main story that's largely independent of this (besides the fact that she's on the rebound) here? We'll have plenty of it when (if?) story B drops here anyway

Yeah, agreed. I appreciate what's been said, but unless there's something new, interesting and relevant to this content, I'd appreciate more if we dropped that discourse and moved on.

At the request of the scanlator, the chapters were removed. My apologies for the inconvenience.

I liked this one. I don't like the Bisexual tag, it neither describes the content accurately, nor the character(s) accurately, both of whom are stated to have been gay for each other for years at this point. I do like the mix of Childhood Friends and Adult Life. That's a nice, rare combo.

Hi. I would like to ask where I can find the option (if there's any) to load all the pages of the chapters when reading. Sometimes the internet here in my country really sucks so it's a pain to load the pages one by one, and it's easier to read when all the pages have been loaded.

Hi, I'm sorry, no such option exists on the site. You may use the download chapter button in the top right, but you'll only have a limited amount of downloads per day (these reset every 24 hours). Good luck!

I feel dumb not reading this for so long because I thought it was a comic about playing Blues music....

I thought so too, and I was kinda bummed that it wasn't...still great though.

This is so bad. I love it.

Everyone deserves a friend like Mana. This has that feeling of everything being a bit too convenient, but it hits all the right notes nonetheless.

That's a good point! I'll add that.

Collaborations with drpepperfan will not be removed, per his discretion. Mainline Binbou work will be removed as time allows. Due to technical constraints, this might take a few days. You're welcome to follow up as you deem fit. Thank you for your patience. Take care, Arc.

Prospects of this series getting finished properly are looking substantially up. Sorry for the delay this time, it's entirely on me. I'll do whatever in my power to make sure it doesn't happen again.

i was about to post "you may not like it but this what peak arata iri looks like" when i read your post

Yeah, "Peak Arata Iri" is a perfect description!

i also think that ara iri made an incredible job with the secondary characters, i never hate the secondary characters from tovarisch but i do think that they lack development

They for sure lacked development in Tovarisch, but I didn't dislike them either. It seems obvious she's trying to write a zany comedy a la Azumanga or Nichijou, but it's also yuri. To do that, you have an ensemble cast. She just hasn't had the experience or volume count yet to make that sort of story a reality.

Does anyone know where this is from? https://img-9gag-fun.9cache.com/photo/aK61bGj_700bwp.webp

Google reverse didn't really provide anything.

Two and Two. This page specifically.

This manga is about a princess who is inlove with her servant or guard? I can't remember.
Does anybody remember it thank you ❤

This sounds like possibly a very common theme, so more information would be good to have if you can think of anything. The first one that comes to mind would be The Sheep Princess in Wolf's Clothing.

Snowflakes Fluttering Down Through the Clear Sky is the first one that came to my mind.

I'm afraid we're very unlikely to add character tags. As much as that might be a nice thing to have, the site isn't really built to support it.

(though, I will reiterate that I am musing the same as everyone else, and nothing I say should be assumed to be perpetual fact)

Woah. Your site is really nice, great work. I'm afraid we're very unlikely to add character tags. As much as that might be a nice thing to have, the site isn't really built to support it.

Please no. The couples aren't that clear here and deciding on for example either one of "Piyo x Tsubaki" or "Piyo x Kaname" will give people the wrong idea of what's official.

The idea of pairing tags has been floated in shadowy backrooms before, and I (as one person, who doesn't have final say) am perfectly open to the idea. I'm not convinced we would need to pick one pairing tag per character, and that seems needlessly limiting given the series' variety. Ideally, the tags would follow exactly what content is depicted. So that should be a non-issue. However, I'm just a casual reader here, so I could be totally wrong on all of this.

You're doing awesome work, and after revisiting a few releases I gotta say this group has the best release chart I've ever seen. Bits and pieces here and there, and then a bomb of blessings on July 22nd during the unholiest year. You saved up your strength all that time for the most important day there is. Blessings upon you for that!

Throw my hat into the ring too. Stories like this make me yearn for the "good ol' days."

Oh. So these extras were uploaded on MangaDex during the period of the MD Apocalypse, and we missed it. But now it's here. Yay.

Well, I re-read the whole thing in the last week to catch up with the newer chapters and wow, this is really incredible. First, Arata Iri is my favourite and I don't intend any disrespect with what I'm about to say. Either my recency bias is crushing, or my tastes just tend toward the less popular.

This is vastly, vastly superior to Come Rain or Shine. Arata Iri learned a whole bunch of lessons from her previous manga, and used those to help set up the entirety of her story from the very beginning. The first few chapters are wild and unsteady, but that style suits her writing. It really starts coming together in the latter half of Volume 1, and those early chapters serve their purpose.

Every major character - with the exception of the teacher, who is minor as of the canceled conclusion - is introduced within the first few chapters. None of them ever get a single chapter to themselves, but we spend individual and group time with all of them. Everyone gets space and an opportunity to grow, none of the side characters steal time that doesn't belong to them. Comparatively, Come Rain or Shine spends the majority of its Volume 2 weaving side stories into its main plot, to the (possible) detriment of said plot.

Meanwhile, this series' tone is impeccably consistent. It's comedy, and it's gaynst. That's it. Every page is dedicated to furthering a joke, or furthering some angsty development. Come Rain or Shine, meanwhile, is mysterious and dramatic and gaynst and comedy and romance and sometimes, all of these things at once. To a degree this all feels necessary and intentional (cuz reboot), but in practice these are detrimental changes.

The development in the last few chapters is also super good?? You can feel Nekozaki's low self-esteem, and you can see the effect it's having on the people around her, before it's even brought up explicitly. The presentation itself feels far more personal and significant than boom plot twist "I killed my father." She might be a bit too much of an idiot, but her obliviousness is actually such a minor point to the development between her and Mikoto that I hardly think it's problematic.

Sigh. I loved chapter 11, and the intense build-up to proper development. I loved chapter 13, and that Tsubaki treasuring Nekozaki as a person (and friend) got its own focus. Chapter 14 feels like an utter axed disaster in its pace, but I will always treasure the scene of Nekozaki's fears having realistic consequences, and Mikoto breaking down as a result. This is also a surprisingly good "and they continued on" ending, thank goodness.

I'm so sad this got canned, but I do share Arata Iri's indebtedness to that editor-in-chief. The jump to Shounen Gahousha never made much sense to me, but in the end, that person is probably the number one reason she's had a job anytime in the last few years. That's awesome. I hope as the reboot progresses, it becomes everything this series aspired to be. Eternally grateful to you, Aos! Awesome work!

Edit: I just realised I got a bit fired up and it probably sounds as if I hate the reboot or something. That's not the case at all, I had huge hopes for it even before reading this in full, and I continue to!

Shouldn't this latest chapter in the bath have an Ecchi tag? Or am I missing something about Subaru getting washed by Hazuki?

I think this whole series could use one. It's a cute manga but we've had a LOT of bath scenes at this point.

I'm not the usual uploader for this nor following it actively, but that definitely seems accurate from my perspective. Thanks.

MangaReads is a copycat site, we're not affiliated with them at all.

^All adjusted, thanks.

As threatened, here's part 1 of my artist cleanup suggestions.

I've decided to post this stuff in instalments, partly because there ended up being quite a lot of it, but also because you guys may not necessarily agree with my suggestions as to what names to use. Some feedback would be welcome once you've read it over.

Only a tiny bit of a mammoth post. All adjusted. There were a few minor concerns, which have been noted and will be reviewed by someone else in the near future. I'll follow up at that point. In nearly every case, the reading or error(s) seemed pretty clean and unanimous from my perspective.

All aliases - even inaccurate ones - have been kept, though some have been hidden from public view to avoid confusion. Some past redundant entries (such as Gobou1000) have been hidden, but remain searchable. All of the links have been added. Hyperlinks in descriptions have been broken for a while\, but hopefully they'll eventually work properly again...eventually. Thanks a ton. There's only one other user I know who would go wild like this, and I'm very grateful for the effort.

Just one question for now.

矢野まもる is Yano Mamoru
https://twitter.com/yaganome

The site has the listing as 矢野まもる, but Pixiv only has 矢野. I could not (briefly) find any instance of 矢野まもる. Did you?

A new spambot appears!

Text lifted from a ten-year-old Reddit post, which will get subbed out for spam links later if left unattended; there's another forum I'm on that gets a lot of these, so it may be a pattern that repeats itself soon.

Thank you, noted.

You're totally just sneaking in and stealing all my thunder, just like that... I'm fine with this.

Do you want content of them, specifically?

Wasn't this story dropped by Dynasty?

Yuri Project is the scanlator, not Dynasty. As usual, we'll follow whatever they choose to do, which is to continue.
