Hm. I guess I was a little off the mark in my guess, though even through all the philosophy I was still expecting something to happen. All things considered, I think the ending might've been more exciting if it ended with Tokiko, it feels more like it dragged out after that.

Oh well, overall I enjoyed my time. 7.5/10

On the plus side, it's easier to see where this is going now.

Weren't y'all asked to stop.

It's pretty insulting to conflate us talking about a fictional matter as if we're somehow condoning an awful act in reality.

Couple more chapters out on MD, and they're real doozies.
I'm starting to question if bodies really explode into pieces when hit by trains

Oh man, you weren't kidding.
It looks like my theory that Ai will be the last one standing holds some water still.

It's clear this is not a manga for you since you're reacting this viscerally to the new chapter's plot hook, I think it'd be better for you and the rest of us if you simply dropped the series and went on to something else.

Nah I am good.

It certainly does not seem that way.

The drama in the discussion is almost as good as the drama in the manga.

For what it's worth, I'd say she's more on the line of sexual harassment, which isn't really much better but we'll see how it goes. She's crossed a line in a panic, we'll have to see the consequences of that crossing.

See, I'm developing a hunch. I don't think Tokiko is going to be the last one standing at the end of this, for some reason I've got the feeling that the last one who's going to be alive is Ai, and despite Tokiko's "curse" ending with her, we're probably going to see hints that Ai is now "cursed."

We'll see how that turns out though.

I dunno, guessing this would happen was a no brainer

People were talking about her voice, but honestly I think the reality is that Mitsuki doesn't talk enough to Aya at school for Aya to really have evidence to piece together "hey, record shop boy sounds a lot like that girl from my class."

The way I see it, we needn't analyze too deeply. It's like debating why doesn't Lois Lane ever realize that Superman sounds just like Clark Kent.

I mean, they did actually address that in the 1978 Superman movie - there's a change in the way he speaks and his body language when Clark Kent becomes Superman. It's neat to watch in motion though.

I imagine it's a similar deal for Mitsuki, hence why the times where Aya feels like "She seems like the guy at the record store" Mitsuki's doing something that's uncharacteristic of how she usually acts.

The difference in postures that Mitsuki has in the character profiles between "at school" and "at her part time job" seem to show that she has a different atmosphere/feel/aura (whatever you like to call it) at each place and so helping the perception of her being two different people.

Yeah, it's a fantastic way to get the point across. Particularly with all her piercings in and her style leaving her particularly androgynous compared to her high school "persona" could make it difficult to correlate them except when she breaks character.

Hell yeah, just fuck me up fam.
I was entirely expecting this to remain exclusively from Chihiro's perspective, so moving to Senpai's perspective as she gradually changes was a nice surprise.

I anxiously await part 2, and I repeat: just fuck me up, fam.

I wasn't kidding about the other one being the most "complete" of these works, but I think if we add the little continuation to this one it probably matches up. I hope we see more brand new content too.

The japanese seem to think that putting your fingers in someoneäs mouth is just the hottest thing ever.

For someone with an oral fixation, sticking your fingers in their mouth is absolutely something really hot.

Small typo in chap 111:
"well... to time study" -> "well... time to study"

??? Didn't you just read it wrong?

It was corrected since that was posted, so you're likely reading the corrected version.

I fail to understand some people's obsession with them coming out. It's their lives, their relationship, when they come out is their business, leave them alone wtf.

It's easier to have a healthy relationship when you're not trying to hide it from friends and family.

Blastaar's own comment aside (they've got a point), it's not always easier for people to come out unfortunately. Their current perspective tells them it's safer for the two of them to keep going in secret until they can free themselves from some of the risk they believe their relationship carries at home. I have some personal experience with this, it was only after I left that I was able to come out. Maybe things will change when/if they both go to Tokyo.

There's something vaguely melancholic about that second chapter, but both of them are sweet, especially the studying in the library. Go for it, Nanoha.

I mean, Asumi has mentioned a "night job" to Nanao, so she might be conflating the statement with an assumption that Asumi is the one doing the working here. I don't think she necessarily is aware that Asumi's spending the money here, so the room for misinterpretation is still there

ug disgusting :/ also whos the ***** that thinks the majority of age gap tag is some how an warning about an story of a perverted predator???

I never said that, I said "The majority of age gap stories here are minor/adult" and recommended about taking more care around the tag if they're worried about a situation like this coming up.

No reason to resort to namecalling though, no matter how censored you want it to be.

Poor Nanao, she doesn't know that Asumi is addicted to good lesbian sex. But she might learn, oh she might learn indeed.

I'm still interested in Asumi finding Mai, but I think I'm starting to root more for just some kind of Harem End fueled by Asumi's raw, unintentional lesbian magnetism.
