The yuri is great, and that's perfect ! but for the drama.. I think we'll need a relationship chart soon lol

I didn't follow that well and am already confused. Blue hair girl and art girl are exes, I assume, but who is Xu Hao? And are they both bi? The art students called him her boyfriend.

I don't believe there's any cause for people to dislike Madoromi so much. I think she's a great character.

She can be both a great character and also an unlikable character imo. She is great and well written, she's also super irritating and unlikable. bc she's supposed to be, i think

Boy I can't wait for this lolicon side plot to end so we can get back to the consenting adult characters.

Not to be all uhmm akschually but Chiru is only 16 herself (with Senri being 18) at the start of the series, don't quite remember how much time has passed since then. So adult might be, at least for the former, a lil generous.

I think a 10ish year gap is way worse than a 2 year gap, specially when one of them is a child.
If you're an adult dating another adult with a 10 year gap, you do you, but if you're an adult dating a child, please see yourself out

oh totally, 100% agree there

Joey DeMaio wants to know your location

Sorry, that reference went over my head. Mind elaborating?

I legit can't parse what is even happening on the last page

black hair cuffs the case onto blondies hands (which is prob the thing they're under fire for) and then grapple hooks out of the building to leave her to fend for herself going "If you get out of this alive then i'll consider giving you a go". or smth along those lines xD

Read this quite some time ago. Really like it. Tho it would have been great if they were in a three way relationship. I mean maiko and risa are dating but how about fumi? She never kissed maiko, I think fumi may have feelings for risa only that's why but ok sucking on maiko. I guess they are ok with fumi joining them sometimes for a 3some. Anyway so far I liked it cause of its wholesomeness, and I'm glad it didn't went for the love triangle cliche

They definitely are in a triad polyam relationship. The pajama party extra chapter is even tagged as such~

outstanding shadow puppets

Also, is it the first time the rest of the class is involved in any way in the story? Maybe now they will be teasing them about it, although that would be something of a departure since this series was almost exclusively these two interacting so far, with occasional Omichi cameo that no one liked :P

People still don't like Omichi?

Personally i never minded Omichi. She does feel a lot like a third wheel in the action, (which, understandable) but i never wished she wasn't there when she appeared~

So Plutonic love does exist. Although I think one should at least like skinship...

Platonic, not Plutonic.

plutonic
/pluːˈtɒnɪk/
adjective
1.
GEOLOGY
relating to or denoting igneous rock formed by solidification at considerable depth beneath the earth's surface.
2.
relating to the underworld or the god Pluto.

I'm sure there's some kinda love like that out there as well xD

Episode 6 of the anime is out and there's quite a bit of divergence from the manga (especially the ch.17 part). I'm curious which version is closer to the LN, the manga or the anime?

Also, iirc I remember ppl being disappointed of the manga's adaptation of Momo's fight vs the dragon, hoping the anime would do a better job. Idk if the anime took better from the source material but i do have to say that seeing her just straight up pummel that dragons face in was pretty satisfying xD

Kokeshi is getting really horndog

You say that as if her horny meter hasn't been maxed out since ch.1 xD

I know that characters are routinely claimed as being examples of aro-ace representation, some of which turn out to be anything but that (most notoriously Yuu in Yagakimi), and lacking explicit in-text labeling like in this story I don't know exactly how one would definitively distinguish between the two types. But I would foresee not doing so leading to a lot of tagging wars.

I've never really seen Yuu as aro-ace rep but rather as a really great example of demi rep, even if not intended as such. At least she resonates very much with me and my own deminess~

These side stories go in such weird directions. Not like the main series didn't at times but these really feel like the mangaka went "okay, lets put all the weird/creepy shit that was too much for the main story in here" xD

Everything else aside, I'm missing some sort of closure for Rio. She just kinda vanished after seeing the two together, never to be seen again :/

why use QPQ instead of telling people you're dating/partners/married? It feels like an just extension of conflating romantic and sexual

People love inventing labels and terms even though it's redundant, sometimes they do so thinking it's special. Take pan and bi as an example. Pansexual is basically bisexual by definition but they reject the latter for some reason. Or demisexual and sapiosexual, which is not an orientation because both straight and LGB people can have this affinity. The former towards emotional connection while the latter, intellectual connection. Everybody has their own unique mix of preference towards people, relationship, and things. New labels aren't necessary for all of these.

First of all, you're literally wrong about the pan and bi thing. Also, you don't get to decide what labels are redundant and which aren't. If someone made a new term for themself bc all the other existing ones didn't feel quite right, then that's all the reason and justification they need to do so.
Maybe stop spouting nonsense if you don't know what you're talking about, you're embarrassing yourself.
