Anyone who did it for 9 years can manage this much...

Okay, You would have to be SERIOUSLY studying the piano to be able to play Mozart's K265 at all. It's quite (read: extremely) difficult to play. Just because the Suzuki Method™ uses the base theme as the first piece of music you learn, people seem to think it's this easy piece of music. Here's a good recording with the sheet music if you want to know what it's like:

I second this wholeheartedly.


On that note, this was so cute.
I actually had forgotten "Candy", so I was confused a whole lot at first until I realized that was Ichijou.
Legitimately thought that Ichijou had a crush on Kanan until I remembered she had Sado the Masochist.

Awk.

Sorry, Besshou-senpai.

Nice, art is adorable.

(Everytime I see those tags I am reminded of Hakka-ya... want moooaaar!)

That is exactly what I think too!

Also, this pairing is the cutest. Gosh. Bunny Mihoko!

Still really no yuri in this series, but still cute nontheless

I just got finished chapter 18, and I think you might not be entirely correct. You're right in that they're not overtly in a romance, but in every way that counts they're already a couple. Looking at them together, while I'd love a kiss or holding hands, that's just a formality now.

So its more, as we Westerners call it, shoujo ai then?

"As we westerners"

Hahahhahha.
They'd better be somewhat lovey-dovey by the end of volume 3!!

SQUEEEEEE!!!!!!! Hehehe. FINALLY! By the way, I wish I had a bed that huge. http://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/citrus_ch08#2

That bed is like a double king size. What.

I'd like to give props to this author/artist though. Even though this wasn't exactly my cup of tea, any BuCap is better than no BuCap. We've just been spoiled by Hakka-ya.

The Hisa in this doujin seemed a bit too forward for my liking, and the ending was a bit awkward, especially with the interesting "bad girl/devil" talk. But overall, I enjoyed it.

I lol'ed so hard at the last page, I just had a flashback of Akari right there XD

Dang! You beat me to it.
That was totally a throwback to Akari!

Well, I'm glad I took the time to get to reading this one. Ordering doesn't kill the joy for me, but it does hamper it a bit.
Thanks for the work! :) Really appreciate it.

Came here from http://dynasty-scans.com/series/philosophia Philosophia since it reminded me of this one with all the smoking and what not.

Sigh. Such bitter love.
Maybe she should take up to eating dark dark chocolate instead...?

maybe you can pretend the cigarettes are something else instead, like.. pocky -.- so far it doesn't really matter does it

Essentially. It's mainly an excuse to bring the characters together so it's primarily a motif. It could have been pretty much anything that served the same purpose. Cooking like in The Secret Recipe, or performance as in Cirque Arachne. The real story isn't about that, it's the interpersonal relationship between the characters.

Yep. Cigarettes and smoking are the main theme of this story... and it would actually be quite odd if they took it away in the following chapters. But it's okay, I understand where you are all coming from. :) I do wish it revolved more around books. I'm curious as to what kind of books Tomo reads.

Yeah, that look that was exchanged between the step-mom and Tomo-san was interesting. Also, on page 16 when Tomo accidentally hugged Ai-chan, she said "Huh, my mistake." I think it means that she had wanted to hug someone close to her subconsciously, and to me the most likely person would have been the step-mom since she was surprised Ai-chan was there. This could have all been my speculation, and that I'm reading into it too much.

As for this... I feel like there's something going between Tomo and her step-mother too, but I hesitate to say it's an "incestuous" affair. Though that would quite bold of Amano, since s/he (could someone confirm Amano's gender for me?) mostly writes lighthearted fun doujins.


Philosophia reminds me of http://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/cigarettes_chocolate

Although we didn't get to know the characters themselves... Nishi Uko really made it personal.

I had to re-read the last few pages to re-live it for a while.

Mei's father reminds me of Ishimaru Kiyotaka from Danganronpa mixed with Phoenix Wright from Ace Attorney.
It's probably because of the posture and facial expression.

You can just skip to Anemone 2 if you want to see the art, its glorious.

(It was more of the fantasy rape than actual rape tho)

Hmm. Okay. Thanks for the suggestion.

Okay, now Recalculation makes a LOT more sense.

Weirdly enough, this isn't a problem with "it was scanlated in the wrong order" as you might think. Recalculation was published 3 issues before this chapter. o_o

That ... is odd.

It feels almost as if there's something missing in between Recalculation and the "new" (background) chapter.
A lot of things aren't really explained, like for example, (what?) "are't you wondering if I'm going to kiss you today" (which implies they usually kiss, especially when followed with the question) "...and wondering what I thought I was doing with you then.." (aka, fooling around implication), yada yada.

I really hope the author comes out with a new chapter soon! :D

I'm gonna make a stretch here and say the senpai was like an anemone, beautiful but dangerous (anemone are poisonous to the touch)?
Yes, no, lame?? I tried...

Actually, after reading all the comments here, I'm going to abstain from reading this. The art looks awful good too. Sigh.

I'm still going to comment though. Haha.

Um... according to Dictionary.com

Origin:
1545–55; < Latin < Greek: literally, daughter of the wind, equivalent to ánem ( os ) wind + -ōnē feminine patronymic suffix; see -one

So... make what you can out of "daughter of the wind" ?

Or maybe even:

sea anemone
noun
any sedentary marine animal of the phylum Coelenterata, having a columnar body and one or more circles of tentacles surrounding the mouth.

idk. Maybe there's a hidden meaning there for tentacle rape? even though there wasn't any
wow, this is too much

It should be five each, I will check that out to make sure it is functioning properly.

Tried adding one more to my Blacklist and this occurred.

Thanks for your hard work!

Haven't been able to sort through the 12 pages for an answer, but just wanted to remind you that this is still happening.

Is there a fix for this? Or should I just suck it up? Haha, thanks.

How about adding a list of "most viewed (manga/doujin)" and a list of "most favorites (manga/doujin)", since Dynasty has a "most popular (mangas/doujins) of Past 7 days".

I also second this.

It's scary how a long relationship can end just like that.

wow. makes you feel worse because you know this happened in real life.

Sobs.

Wish I knew how to read Japanese.
Is this the Mai she always talks about too? https://twitter.com/mai101750


I wonder if she still keeps in touch with Masako...?
(How long ago was chapter 33 released? Has it been a year yet?)

And wait. Is Kai the one that is slightly mean/blunt all the time? Lol

> (it looks more like a gift from another girl because of its cuteness lol).

Hahaha, it looks like that because Kana made both charms to match.

> If the person she called at the end was the ex-boyfriend, she could have called earlier to resolve whatever issues they had.

As Serenata said, she's only calling now because of what she witnessed and learned from her sister's mistake/fight.

Also, she was pretty darn emotionally and physically invested in their relationship and her own troubles were probably temporary forgotten. After all, this is the sister that left home years ago, and just suddenly appeared with a girlfriend on her doorstep.

Just watched through like 7 Hitoshi Matsumoto and Masatoshi Hamada Tsukkomi and Boke videos. Hahaha. I love it.
I definitely love this trio, but I like Yuriko the best. :D

It's a bit early in the game, but seeing how Yuriko mentioned NTR, she might have a thing for Sakura?
Though honestly she seems like one of "us" instead, haha.

End of volume two and we're finally going some...where? Haha.
And I love it when authors have twitters. It's just so nice and makes me feel like I can actually know them as an author and person, rather just the figure behind all these wonderful stories.

Also, yeah ):
Natsumi seems so darn mysterious.
If I didn't know any better, I'd think she was the lover of Riko's mom.
.... Or best bud.

> I think it's the same as what happened to her in the otome anime. I don't quite remember the timeline for it, but I do know she disappeared for a while because she got scared of being appointed as one of the columns or something. She ran away then got lost and trapped in some remote place with Mikoto./

Haha, yeah, this is what the author speculates happened between Shizuru and Natsuki before the start of Mai Otome. Y'all pumpkins need to rewatch it!
