But they wouldn't actually skip the segs....would they?

As far as the writing itself goes, I feel like they took the realism and made it super-easy to digest. Not my preference - and I certainly don't like it as much as the other yuri series on the site - but overall I feel like this is a 10/10. The writing was great, the characters believable and relatable, the character development fluid and consistent, and the overall message conveyed without relying on popular tropes like fanservice, comedy or excessive drama.

People can disagree with me, but those are just my two cents.

Don't. That knife was not meant for hurting people. PLEASE do not.

Ya know, some pics are just ruined by those filters.

Page 22 is mising a "Tee he!" and "Tee He! Te NANDAYO!?"

Page ten also has a problem with "Look, the people LOOk like garbage!"

WE HAVE THE CEREAL, LADIES AND GENTS!!! Holy shyet, I didn't know this had become serialized. That's awesome!!

Worst thing is the hero always defined as a "nice guy" who gets all the popular hotties just because he's "nice" and that seems to be all the needed reason.

Compare this to the superior yuri harem manga Watamote, in which Tomoko gets the girls because she's a scumbag weirdo.

Are you aware that Watamote is a cgdct comedy for a male audience, created by two experienced shōnen mangaka, serialized in Gangan and sold as manga for boys?
And that nobody in Japan ever called it yuri, or tagged it as a yuri manga?

I sometimes wonder if we're all really on the same page when we think about yuri...

Considering how many of those girls are taking an interest in Tomoko, both romantically and otherwise, I'm pretty sure we're not.

THAT was adorable! But it also has me thinking...this series won't have polyamory or a love triangle, right?

^^^^ It's an upgrade for the Metroid video game series that allows the protagonist to turn into a compact ball. It's useful for navigating narrow passageways.

^ Nope. Not even the Galactic Federation nor the Space Pirates ever figured it out. In Metroid Prime, the Space Pirates who tried Morph Ball prototypes either died or were horribly disfigured. GF came close though.

Little reminder - Leotard Samus can use the Morph Ball in NES Metroid.

We need more of this ship. The cat and the bird...

Happy ending, but like with If You Could See Love, I'm left with more questions than answers.

Still...Nana accomplished her goal, so there's that at least.

AND WHY DIDN'T WE GET TO SEE THE SEGGS?!

YEEEEESSS!!! FINALLY!! IT'S BEEN YEARS!!!

Holy shit, and KASUMI was the one who went for it?! The first real kiss?! YOU GO GIRL!!!

Haaaaaa...that is something I was genuinely not expecting.

GO GO GO, TONGTONG! PASS THAT TEST!! SHOW THAT BIOTCH WHO'S BOSS!!!

Also make sure you have your victory trip planned. XD

Am I the only one who actually likes Shiho cuz I like people with her stereotype lol

I like the archetype she is too, lol
It's kind of like the lesbian equivalent of... a Komaeda...

In any case, an earlier post said "Shiho has no redeeming qualities" in the same paragraph as they stated that she has a pathological need to be the best.
It's... not very difficult to pull character development out of a complex like that. All she has to do is find someone who's absolutely, conclusively better than her at something that she can't fathom giving up, AND be in love with this person. Then she gets to have a whole journey about it.
Or the author could Given it up and she patches over her broken heart by ruining every relationship she could possibly have then fall for a normal-ass wife five years later.

Pulling character development for Shiho isn't necessarily the issue here, it's the timing. She's established herself as the villain for so long that any development we get now will be too little too late, unless this gets drawn out even more. I don't think resolving her attitude or relationship problems will be nearly as easy as you make it out to be...

kinda weird that people are calling shiho 'irredeemable" because she's been kind of a bitch a few times and messed with the MCs. she's not murdered anyone (yet). like, that's her role in the story, we'll see where it goes.

Unfortunately, you're right. Her role is to be a bitch, and she's doing a marvelous job. But that's also why she's so unpopular. It seems like her only purpose is to cause a rift between Yori and Hima, so her character feels incredibly shallow and threadbare.

If there is a redemption for her somewhere down the line, I don't think the majority of the reader base will care. Shiho's established herself as the antagonist at this point, and her past and demeanor make it incredibly difficult for most people to empathize with her. I would not be surprised in the least if her next action causes her popularity to drop so much that she vanishes completely after the battle of the bands.

Ends? Wait, I thought there was still more!

WHAT IN THE FECK JUST HAPPENED?! I have no idea but this makes me think of Super Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann and I am all for it! YURI POWER GOOOOOOOOOO!!

I really wish it would come back, or for there to be another series like that.

Messed up as both moms are, I sincerely hope Tongtong's mom pulls through. She might have her priorities ass-backwards, but she cares very deeply for Tongtong, and the fact that she immediately and openly accepts her GF with no hesitation makes me think she's the kind of mom Xiao Lu needs.

Im kinda mad bc the mc is so weak like, she let her mom be like that with her and she don't even say something

It's the reality for many girls like her. To feel powerless in a situation where the only person giving you food, clothes and a roof over your head can't accept you for who and what you are. You don't see a way out, and you're afraid of what might happen, so you zip your lip and tough it out because "maybe they'll understand."

I'm praying that Tong Tong saves the day somehow.

Just got caught up, and dare I say...for some extremely bizarre reason, I feel like Evie and Elsa remind me of Mythra and Pyra from Xenoblade Chronicles 2. Is anybody else getting those vibes or am I just a crazy nutball?

Her abs so so shredded, bejeebus...

I'm at Chapter 12 and I still don't understand the MC. Good chunks of this story are so cringeworthy I have to minimize the window on occasion just to process what just happened.

So why am I still attracted to this story? @_@

I’m not sure why you are attracted to the story, but I have a pretty good idea why I like it.

First of all, give up any notion of comparing this to real-life behavior—it would never happen, and even if it did, things would never play out this way—the authorities, school or police, would be called in sooner rather than later.

But in the skewed world that this story depicts, I find humor and pleasure in two things:

• Komaki’s stoical or bemused reactions to Hishikawa’s bizarre antics. The degree of latitude she gives Hishikawa indicates that she basically likes her (in the friend sense at least) and is trying indirectly to socialize her.

• Hishikawa’s attempts to rein herself in and to act “normal” (as she partially and inadequately understands the concept) are to me quite touching and rather endearing. (And the failures of those attempts are often quite hilarious.)

Overall I just think it’s funny.

I think Komaki is the reason why I'm sticking around. She has the patience of a saint...
