iirc, wasnt it actually showing them at the same age? As in, all sisters are at diff ages, but each of their chapters focused on a specific time in their high school years. It's pretty neat when you notice it

It ends up so confusing since it goes in reverse chronological order, starting with the youngest sister's hgihschool experiences and ending with the oldest's.

So all the girls are lesbians. If only it was that easy in real life.

Have you tried starting your game over on easy mode?

Blizzard did make a big deal out of it, they're been teasing a gay character since the game launched in the first place. They've made sure people were aware of it and even made another announcement not long before the reveal.

It's true that the reveal itself was done in a surprisingly low-key way, but Blizz made damn sure there was buzz beforehand.

They teased having an LGBT character but they didn't really make a huge deal about it. From what I know it was just a tweet answering someone's question or something like that.

Y'know it's funny you say that. I see comments EVERYWHERE from kids saying something similar to "If you're mad about a character's sexual orientation you're an idiot, but if you're HAPPY about it you're also an idiot!" And I just don't get that, especially if it helps you better identify with the character, or gives positive representation to a group looking for acceptance.

People have generally been extremely stupid about the entire situation. On another forum I frequent the thread on this was full of people stating how much they didn't care then going on to show that they actually did by arguing with people over it. Apparently when something isn't normalized you shouldn't make a big deal of it until it is normalized, which kinda defeats the entire purpose since it can't become normalized otherwise. Not that Blizzard actually made a big deal out of it in the first place. All things considered it was a fairly minor part of the comic and they couldn't have really made less of of a big deal about it than they did.

For a one shot, I'd recommend "Graffiti" by Furutsuji Kikka :3 just one of those I like to reread.

Don't forget its sequel too. (Or rather alternate point of view I guess.)

Are you for real? Last update is still from November 2016...

Some people don't seem to realize that these things take time and that the people working on them may not actually have much spare time to devote to it.

Edit: But.. well.. I guess I live in a much easier and cheerful world than them.

This is likely exactly the case. Someone who hasn't led a particularly enjoyable life is significantly more likely to grow up into someone who's overly serious or who represses their own emotions. On the one side you have Fiona who felt betrayed by Amy and who lost the one thing in her life that legitimately made her happy. On the other side you have Amy who felt guilty about abandoning Fiona and dreaded facing her because she was sure Fiona would hate her for what she did. It's kinda completely logical for neither of them to be particularly cheerful here. I'd say them being cheerful would be much more unrealistic even.

im amazed Hoshikawa Ginza District 4 wasnt the first suggestion.

I was surprised it wasn't at least mentioned yet.

anyway here are some more suggestions.

http://dynasty-scans.com/series/majyo_to_houki_to_kurobuchi_megane

I always forget Amber Teahouse is technically age gap. One of the best mangas on the site in my opinion. Second one didn't even cross my mind but that's a good read too. It's hilarious.

My mang Toto didn't do anything wrong, Amy deserved all the bad its just Fiona deserved more

Toto definitely did wrong, just for the right reasons. Plus she was still a kid at the time so she couldn't really understand the long term consequences of her actions at the time so it's something that should definitely be forgiven. I don't think Amy was entirely in the wrong either though. While just up and leaving like that with so little warning after her and Fiona promised to stick together was kinda shitty it's clear that she actually did make efforts to keep in touch with Fiona still. It's definitely not a black and white situation.

Seconding this recommendation. Also Hoshikawa Ginza District 4 is a pretty decent one.

Can't wait to see how the story as a whole turns out.

Like in Aishiteruze Baby.

Thanks for inadvertently suggesting something that sounds fairly interesting. I'll have to give that a read at some point.

I'm still not convinced Asahi is a boy.... five years later and he's still a tiny stick thin figure? I could be wrong. It's just that all those clothes and being hidden and what not...

I'm probably just projecting thinking I want him to be a girl.

Malnourishment would seem like a very likely problem in Asahi's situation both before and after his father died. On top of that it doesn't seem like he'd have played much as a kid anyways so developing muscle or anything like that would be pretty unlikely on top of everything else. And some people are just naturally scrawny.

"We really are sisters".

There goes the yuri...

Not that it's really necessary for this series in particular anyways. It's a good read regardless.

Probably because it's not yuri.

Probably more a combination of the fact that most of the chapters are pretty old (most series of similar age have few to no comments) and the fact that it's incomplete.

The fact it's incomplete is the entire reason I haven't read it myself. I hate starting a series only for it to get dropped or abandoned. That's why I only read ones I'm reasonably confident will get completed. The rest I wait until they're complete first.

It's not like you need a degree in science rocket to put your lips on someone else's.

Well if you're not worried about accidentally blowing up the person you love, sure. Incorrect fuel mixture is a huge concern when kissing someone.

Its cus the stuff on the main page are listed based on their [scan team?] release date. Yuriism has a one day upload delay, so pretty much anything by them (any chapters not uploaded the day it's released, really), when its uploaded on Dynasty, won't appear on the front page (under the day its uploaded).
Its safer to check the "Recently added" page, so you know exactly what the latest uploads are
Im sure im fumbling on my words but um, tl; dr, check "Recently Added" to not miss shit

Yeah, that's actually what I'm talking about with that reference to the upper right bit of the front page. (It's the most recent five or so chapters added to the site that don't end up on the main page.) Normally something that's uploaded late enough to be in a previous day would show up there when it's uploaded instead of the main part of the front page.

^It's just a one-shot, but there's a small sequel. Even translated.

You might consider linking it or otherwise letting people know where/how they can find it.

Only one that comes to mind right now is student/parent.

This makes me think of one whose name/author I can't remember. Student ends up running into her classmate's mother on like her first day of school and the mother is crying. Later she gets said classmate to introduce her to his mother. Eventually they start dating and the son is cool with it. For the life of me I can't remember which one it is though.

Btw is not showing in newest uploads, I knew there was a new chapter because of the mail

For some odd reason it showed up on the main page but low enough that even on my monitor it was below the bottom of the screen. Normally ones that are uploaded that late end up on the list in the upper right instead. I didn't even get the notification email myself until like an hour after I'd already read it for some reason.

Since kindergarden? Is masturbating before hitting puberty even a thing? I mean, how does that happen?

People discover that sort of thing at different ages. That's about the same age I discovered it myself.

I'm glad I'm subscribed to the RSS feed for the site's releases. I would've totally ended up missing this chapter otherwise, lol. Glad to see more of it.

I think you're referring to this scene? https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/5gz478/lillies_dialogue_during_the_exeggutor_island_rain/

I haven't been able to play Sun or Moon since I'm poor and I can't afford a 3DS (and yet I browse the Pokemon subreddit frequently for some reason...), but some people in that thread are saying that Lillie said the "male dialogue" to their female MC. Perhaps the line she says is determined by some other factor?

Yup, I'm pretty sure that was the one I was thinking of. I got the bit of dialogue they said was for female trainers there myself.

deal with it or not, half of the americans thought the same.

You're flat out wrong here. Clinton won the popular vote by nearly three million votes. And this is despite the fact she got a fairly low total amount of votes compared to the past few elections herself.

Also so as not to shit up the thread more I'll just leave this as my final word on the matter: Opposers of Trump have been saying from the beginning that exactly what he is currently doing is what he'd do if elected and Trump supporters said he wouldn't. Then since then I've seen them do nothing but make excuses for him. So yes, dim is quite an accurate summation to say the least. As of now he has reneged on basically every single major campaign promise he made which was, you know, kinda a major part of his campaign. And he's not even in the office yet.
