"I can't let her be gay because people will be homophobic to her, and that would cause her suffering", is some logic that loops right back around to being homophobic and causes her daughter suffering by not accepting her. She should be someone that is supportive and there for her daughter no matter what, even if people are assholes to her daughter at least she'd be an important pillar of support...

Also I can't believe the mom died at the end of the chapter, RIP

My dad said the exact same thing to me when I came out as trans, or at least the same underlying reasoning. Though much wordier and more hurtful things lol. It's a shockingly common viewpoint for people who are fine with queer stuff on the surface but never really seriously consider anything about queer people.

Now this is interesting. The backstory of peachtown wasn't something I expected to see in this story, let alone that Mu Xiaoen herself literally did invest to create the peach orchards from the ground up.

This is honestly pretty relatable from a US perspective too with a town where all the jobs were centered around a factory that then closes.

I will speak out in favor of getting clam jammed by the alarm, in the sense that Mai was keeping a cool head (at least on the surface) by playing the role of Misaki, the sex worker, for whom Asumi is just a client.

Now that they've exchanged contact info, their next meeting is almost certainly going to be outside of the confines of a sex worker/client relationship, and I'm very much looking forward to how they both handle that. Mai especially.

Also yeah it's hilarious that Asumi got so pent up from that whole bait and switch with Mai that she went into an internet cafe and got off for half an hour lmao

This is shaping up to be a real morass of horrible unhealthy toxic miscommunication and one sided feelings, and I'm loving it

The unspoken emotions and mutual tension between them is unbearable. So many things obscured off the page with just a glimpse at each of their feelings and a hint at developments.

i really want to… i need to know exactly what Xian Jun thinks about more half her audience shipping their protagonists' moms.

*checks her weibo*

ok, never mind, she might actually low key ship them herself

leaving this comment without any evidence is cruel haha

Damn, Mom's being written too believably as a depressed Asian mother...I dunno what the author's intentions are but I actually don't want the moms to hook up? I really feel like sometimes there really is a time and place for everything and them pairing up would really be a bit too convenient and almost take away from the snippets of realism with Luxi's upbringing to have both daughters and mothers pair up. Though an arc where Tong Tong's mom plays wingwoman for Luxi's mom's post-divorce romantic adventures would be welcome.

I feel the same way, but honestly I trust Xian Jun enough that I'd be happy with either a romantic or a platonic relationship budding between them. I think either way could work if its handled with tact and care. I do appreciate that the mother's reasons for acting this way are so realistic, and I am hopeful for an arc that does let Luxi and her mom re-establish a good relationship with one another based on mutual trust.

This one is cute but should it be tag yuri? It’s just about 2 dumbasses messing around

Yuri isn't just romance, it's about relationships (of any kind) between women. Especially when the author is a known yuri mangaka I think people need to adopt a broader view of what yuri actually is. It's more than just kissing

I wouldn't expect anything less wholesome from the author of Wanna Sip?.

Did you consider it's also the author of Romance Code though? :P

Thank you for mentioning romance code, I had missed it when it was released and just read it. Nmi is phenomenal, such good range.

Also I loved this one shot, being able to care for and love her "apprentice" is a form of magic in its own right.

It's really funny to me that so many people here are saying "hah, Kei really deserved getting killed and rebuilt in her own robot's image because she cheated on the robot she designed to be emotionally dependent on her".

Whereas I'm gonna say: Hah, Kei really deserved getting killed and rebuilt in her own robot's image because she had the arrogance to program a robot to feel uncontrollable emotional attachment to her, without considering the consequences."

A mad scientist done in by her own invention indeed. Yet another stellar work from Nmi that shows their range as an author.

great mix of different relationships, I have a real soft spot for these types of stories that give us a glimpse of feelings that can't be distilled into words immediately

But seriously, as much as Hiro keeps dreaming about Karin and her dad, Karin herself seems pretty close to Hiro. There's also a lot about her that we don't know, like why she was at a convenience store that was (probably) in the middle of nowhere and asked to crash with Hiro for the weekend, even before meeting her dad.

Notice how when Hiro saw Karin talking to her dad she assumed her reactions were because she likes him, when in reality she was almost certainly asking where the vending machines were, and when dad told her what Hiro's favorite drink was she smiled because it was her favorite as well.

Hiro doesn't seem to have fully accepted that she likes Karin romantically in general, so I think these reoccurring dreams are probably a product of some level of self repression.

To be fair her grandfather did get her a whole ass car, and say he missed her. Yes Ji Youyan is a factor, but that's a pretty serious familial obligation as well. Now it also depends if she has a good relationship with him or not, but delaying her flight for literally one day because her family wanted to celebrate her birthday with her really isn't that evil or crazy.

So everyone can calm down with the name calling

I don't think that scanlation group "sappho scans" would choose to take up this series if the budding crush of a sixteen year old girl on her friend's father wasn't handled with tact lol.

It's good to have stories like this too. Getting a crush on an adult is a part of growing up too, after all. And too many romance stories treat that as a legitimate goal that you should have, so I look forward to a different take.
