There's something infinitely hilarious about a character desperately trying to cling onto plausible deniability in spite of all the overwhelming evidence to the contrary

Fu Hua x Senti goodness~

My same exact thought. Hope it'll be a good translation, the studio doesn't exactly have much to their name

Yuri so fast it just speedran the entire plot of 'Girl Friends' in a single chapter.

Glad it's here now too :D

Not really sure what Tang Chao's "confession" is gonna achieve, though? Betas can have sex with omegas just as well as with fellow betas, it's not like omegas have different sex organs only compatible with alphas' (at least in the standard ABO setup).

I think the point she was trying to make was like "I can guarantee that she's a Beta bc i've had sex with her and have thus seen all the important bits (or lack thereof), so i should know"

I only just yesterday got around to finally watching LLSunshine and oh my god it's so gay. Definitive OT3 these ones, though ChikaxRikoxYou aren't far behind~

Yen Press picked this one up

Series got licensed by Yen Press

Mhm, we won't know what being "completely uncensored" actually involves until the BD release is out and I agree the one we got rn is already plenty explicit, so it's anybody's guess how they intend to top that.

Mahou Shoujo Akogarete is a HUGE Success !! very good animation and they didn't hold back! you can see A LOT but only if you make sure to get the uncensored version, like WEB (ADN) (tsundere raws)

There are other versions with censorships and also with muted audio

To clarify, all currently streaming versions have at least edited audio.

There are three versions:
TV Broadcast ver. with censored visuals & audio,
Akogare ver. with partially censored visuals & audio for AT-X and Docomo (this is the one HIDIVE simulstreams) and
Chou Akogare ver. with uncensored visuals & audio, which is exclusive to the DB/DVD release.

(No idea what "partially censored" actually concretely means but that's what they said~)

Argh so cuuute T.T

So we'll get a sequel series about Momiji opening her own shop with her wife and their gyaru child, right? right? Q.Q

I dont know if the dynamic of older woman trying to resist tentation and behave accordingly, and younger one been the persistent and pushing force to getting in a romantic relationship was already made into a series, and even uploaded here, but I really would like one like that, the potencial for something deep and romantic, or just comedy and light drama/slice of life could also be great material with that kind of dynamic.

May I direct you to this lil gem

so first Undine, now I'm guessing Ifrit. Wonder if they'll just dump the snake princess' water on her.

No no no no.
In the realm of air, we have Sylph. In the realm of water, we have Undine.
Going by that rule, the fire princess is most likely Salamander.

Question is whether we're going by Tales of rules or not.

I'd think we'd be going by Mana naming, but until we see fire-princess's name we won't know which source inspired the naming conventions.

Seeing the twitter extras after reading the pre-serialized web version and looking at the armor she has on I'm connecting some dots.

Fun fact, these names for elemental spirits inhabiting the classical four elements (Gomes, Undines, Sylphs and Salamanders for Earth, Water, Wind and Fire respectively) are most commonly traced back to the alchemical writings of Paracelsus, a Swiss physician and alchemist from the Renaissance.

well that got real heavy here at the end of ch.29. good thing ch.30 brought it right back up with some quality gay

I think Naori should be allowed to kiss all of the ogres as a treat

except the older brother. all he gets is a cement mixer shot for being a lil cunt :D

Throwback to Miki telling it like it is all the way back in chapter 6, very relevant xD

Adorable bakery lesbians? I'm so bready

When'd she write that note?

No idea when she wrote it but Aya stuffed it into her bag together with the snacks back in chapter 69

IT'S BECAUSE IT'S HER AAAAAAAA

"I don't have romantic feelings towards you, but I don't want to be apart from you."

We can see it as something wholesome because of the gorgeous art and because we know that Aki is a great person with no bad intentions, but it's a dangerous game to play, especially when on the other side is such a mentally fragile person.

You left out the most important parts of that segment. She said "If I were to think about whether I have romantic feelings towards you right now..." and "I'd probably thinks it's not that kind of feeling just yet."

With the heavy emphasis she's putting on the "not yet", it's pretty clear that she isn't "just" asking her out bc she's desperate to keep her around as a friend. She absolutely goes into this confession with the expressed intention to come to love her romantically as well.

What delicious karmic justice. Everyone got what they wanted and what they deserved. Kayo (and by extension Satomi) took a fall only to come out on top and be content in their new environment. Meanwhile Junko and Hashimoto got exactly what they wanted but found their desires and themselves hollow in the end.

And that's the thing with Hashimoto, yea she was a sweetheart who deserved to be with someone who truly cared about her for most of the series. But in the end when push came to shove and Junko's manipulative nature revealed itself to her she could've walked away from her, even if it meant transferring or changing jobs so Junko can't blackmail her.
And what did she do? She decided to give into her desire, to have Junko, even if it meant "playing the game", being a pawn. She made her bed and now has to lie in it, figuratively and literally, just like Junko has. Beautiful~

Honestly, the most unrealistic thing in this series is the fact that Aki felt in love with Yori instead of Shiho. I wonder what kind of thought process went through her head to make that happen.

One was a cool mysterious tomboy with a good voice, the other was an insufferable girl who just seem to hate her (with a good voice). I don't know if the statement is ironic or you genuinly think that Aki would fall for Shiho before they speak things out.

I think they might be referring to the time prior to the falling out. Before Shiho put on her bitch act to distance herself from Aki they were super close, arguably more so than Aki and Yori were at the "height" of their closeness after the latter became the new vocalist.
So I can totally see where OP is coming from, though of course "the heart wants what the heart wants" and there's no rhyme or reason to who one falls for so it's kind of a moot point either way xD

As for this chapter, Aki asking Shiho out is a great sign imo. Aki has been incredibly passive when it comes to her own love life so far. I doubt she ever had the intention to confess to Yori, maybe bc she was just scared to or bc she knew Yori wasn't into her. But even if she could've been pushed to do so, as soon as Hima entered the picture there was no chance she'd ever tell.
So her finally taking the initiative to pursue Shiho, not just to get her friend back but to honestly pursue her with the intention/hope to eventually reciprocate her feelings, clearly shows her intimacy of feelings for and commitment to Shiho as a person, romantic or not.
