Is the Idiot Couple tag new?
I need to add it to all of Ayano x Miyoshi chapters

Please don’t. An idiot couple flaunts their lovey-doveyness to the annoyance of anyone around them. I don’t think Ayano and Miyoshi qualify for that. They’re Useless Lesbians, but there’s no tag for that.

Women love sweets and men don’t seems to be a common stereotype in Japan. I remember that coming up in a few genderswap mangas where the male-to-female swapped character enjoys stuffing their face with sweets, which they couldn’t do before.

Asexuality, bisexuality and homosexuality mentioned and used correctly in a comedy manga? Mind blown. Also dat narcissism. And it seems senpai is a healthy girl? This series truly is a gold mine.

But the tailbone is further down, so the tail should be starting roughly at the top of the butt crack. It must be below the sacrum, so it can’t be coming out in the middle of the lower back…

Artistic license, hm?

The author specifically included an explaination that the tail comes out of the tailbone because it’s an extension of the spine… and then evokes artistic license to place it elsewhere? °_°

Ms Childhood Friend is sending some mixed messages…
Also dat smartphone.

Is Izumi the only one that has no color in her name?

Hers is blue. Aota (Aoi) Izumi. Red/Blue for the sideship.

Red and blue? We should’ve seen that coming from miles away.

Husky and Medley are still together 12 years later, they got engaged after their 10th anniversary!

Source? They tweeted at their 11th anniversary last year, but now that tweet is gone and their Twitter account is protected. :<

I vaguely remember a scene like this somewhere ... "why did you stop?" "Because you said ..." "I didn't mean ...!" Something like that. But I can't remember where.

I could’ve sworn that that’s from a NicoMaki doujin (bottom Nico ofc), but I can’t find it. :<

I actually don't mind incest in fiction works but irl it would be disgusting tbh, but I wonder if such a coincidence would actually happen IRL

It does. From what I’ve read, the most likely cause is that one (or both) of them was adopted and they didn’t grow up together, then meet as adults. Based on the low amount of yearly convictions in my country, I’m guessing that it happens a few hundred times per year worldwide, though the dark figure might be higher because the involved parties might never find out.

would the feelings of love disappear because of the fact they are related?

I think it would depend on their own opinions on incest, which is of course influenced by the society they live in and their religious believes. If they believe all incest is a sin and must be condemned, I guess they’d probably fall out of love pretty quickly. If they believe that the incestuous relationship itself isn’t the problem (after all, there is no victim in a consensual incestuous relationship that does not meet other criteria like paedophilia or abuse of dependency) and only inbreeding is, they’d probably keep loving each other.

Meddling friend used Interrogation. Its effectiveness is normal.

I hope we’ll get to see more teasing from her.

I'd respect the author, if Akira kindly rejects Hime and explains that she's straight, because that kind of has been the portrayal of Akira so far.

We’ve also just learned that Akira might’ve liked the idea of having a crush on a boy because that would’ve made her more like a girl, so maybe she’s not a straight as it seems and everything is possible. I know people like speculating, but I’ll just be waiting for the next chapter and see what happens.

Is this gay?

Yeah, it’s pretty funny, IMO.

Answering your actual question: No, I wouldn’t say so. It has the kind of subtext that never leads anywhere that’s typical for 4komas with an all-female cast like this one.

Gosh, why can't more manga be like this. No dragging out "will they won't they" for six ****ing years. No ending the moment they get together. No unbelievable, over-acted drama, just two adults who take the time to talk to each other and make each other feel better when they're down. It seems like it's too much to ask for 99% of manga to deliver on depicting a gay relationship in which happiness is present, ever. I really appreciate this one for daring to do so.

Well, “[…] writing a convincing relationship, with genuine depth of character and development, is a much more difficult feat than pouring on the quick-reaction drama and will-they-won't-they […]”, so most authors just go for cheap, established tropes to keep the audience interested.

This one, though? Top tier relationship writing.

Eh? Isn't it suppose to be just Kaori, not Kaori-chan?

I think it was intended like that. Notice how Kayoko stutters again and then Kaori’s “…” bubble. I’m sure Kaori realized that Kayoko tried to leave out the honorific but couldn’t do it (yet).

Nega always seems so… disillusioned. Canno’s and Kawauchi’s stories usually have some kind of good end while Nega’s almost always have a bad/sad end. Feels like Canno and Kawauchi are both living the happy couple life while Nega broke from getting rejected by straight women all the time. :-/

^ Exactly.

^ Yes. It means that person is the damage-dealer. The tank is the damage-taker that tries to protect the others, especially the DPS.

A predictable outcome for the next chapter would be: Yukara gets too drunk to function, Mizuki takes her home and puts her into bed, seeing the cute underwear, which makes her flustered and she won’t be able to get it out of her head until a future chapter, but said cute underwear stays on and Mizuki leaves.

Considering how much these two are talking, I can’t see them doing anything in bed that’s not fully consensual and alcohol-free. Also, if past chapters are an indication, it will probably start with several panels of blushing and intertwined fingers. <3

Amusing interaction, but this seemed a bit out of character, especially for Ruby. On the omake page, they look like they’re regretting some of their life choices.

Aki certainly decided not to fight a battle she can’t win. All that shipping looks like she’s getting back at Yori by ribbing her about her interest in Himari as much as possible. Revenge: kill her with kindness. <3

Domestic life after their wedding and Misaki still can’t take catching a glimpse of her Kokoro? I guess they’re in the “lights off” faction.

You guys think this is gonna get dragged out for the entire series? I could see it ending with the reveal tbh.

Ookuma’s parents were already introduced as an obstacle, so I think we’ll get Ookuma and Kanda on the same page way before the end and move on to the parents issue.

I’m wearing my shipping goggles but I’m not seeing the subtext. :-/ But it’s basically less murderous Kill Me Baby on vacation, so I’ll be following it anyways.

Page 1: “Doesn’t have boobs!!”
Page 4: shows boobs

When something has to be clarified twice as it only being a character's opinion, sounds even more like the author's opinion.

I think that sounds like the author knows it’s not an universal opinion but the character was explicitly made to have this opinion (for comedic effect, of course).

New chapter is up on Twitter and half of it feels like Mochi’s been reading the Dynasty Forums, lol.

Voting Kai for best pal and audience surrogate.
