Is "Misugi" supposed to be the mini-chapter name?

That's how I read it.

Who knows how things are gonna pan out...

I vote mech battle. But in all seriousness, this chapter got to me. I really hope Maki doesn't end up as an actual antagonist, because she's a victim as well.

"low key"

Zoomerisms are sometimes simultaneously hilarious, endearing, and infuriating.

Maybe hoping for poly is too much . . . . eeeeh, I'll hope.

I think maybe a good rule of thumb for such things is that unless there is a clear movement in that direction, such as There's Weird Voices Coming From the Room Next Door!, it's probably best to not waste the energy.

I can't stop laughing at the human-sized deflated muppet...thing Aizawa turns into on page 31. Haven't seen such hilarious one-panel depictions of characters since School Zone (RIP).

Over-saturation and scrambling for profit via quantity over quality is the sign of a failure to do the basic job of a talent company - showcasing individual talents' strengths while keeping them happy and feeling that it's worth their while to be a part of it. Nijisanji doesn't care about the talents. They care only about keeping the money rolling in, no matter how many waves they have to roll out, screw over, and graduate to do it. I only hope those still in the company who haven't wised up will do it soon. Kurosanji doesn't deserve the place they have in the v-tuber community.

Darth Vader being Luke's father was a retcon. An author shifting how a character behaves as their series goes on to better tell their story is not. You don't have to like that they felt the need to do that, for whatever reason, but it does not change the context of the previous parts of the work. I, personally, was very unsatisfied with how Mai's character ended up losing her inexplicable adult-isms as the series progressed, but it does not constitute a retcon.

Mya-nee shows some growth, if only a little.

One step onward, two steps back

I prefer to think of it as a few tentative steps forward, followed by a stagger from a glomping Hinata. All in all, progress.

Reminds me of this clip, particularly French Stewart's line.

Yet another perfect ending, though I would not be opposed to the sequel - The Witches' Married Life.

So, i think they all be resolve with a time skip.
OL confess to Mai, they decide to way and they star dating with 18

That's literally grooming a child.

It isn't, but you already knew that.

The article at the end is talking about a dog (or any other pet) being a witness or "officiant" in a wedding between two people, not people marrying their dogs.

I love this tag so much, it's by far my favourite on this site, not beacuse i care about het, but due to the sheer amout of rustled jimmies it generates in the comments every time it's added somewhere.

Thanks administration <3

I'll keep defending that my "het" title choices are good though, hahaha

They're great, Daphie, and I appreciate all of the work you do to bring them to us. I love ALL kinds of romance stories, even if I couldn't see myself in the same situation. Even seeing a single negative comment on such a mundane tag really makes me wonder about the people who hate such a normal thing so much as to actually comment on it. Yes, I said normal. It's normal for human beings to have relationships, regardless of the sex or gender of the people involved.

I actually thought this chapter would be the one to shut certain people up, but some people just live in their own little outrage worlds disconnected from objective reality and any sense of nuance.

To Yuuko is to suffer. To Tooru is to find some meaning in the suffering.

I believe this person needs to be reminded that posting accusations in a language different from the one the majority of this site uses will not shield them from consequences: https://dynasty-scans.com/forum/posts/849866

I guess I don't really understand why people are in an uproar over interactions between children. I could see why someone might be uneasy if one of these characters happened to be an adult (are adults even shown in this series at all?), but some of the responses I've seen here are either completely blowing things out of proportion or talking about things that haven't even happened yet without using spoiler quotes. I'm not sure which.

I believe it comes down to people's answer to the following: "is it still lolicon if they're both minors?"

After thinking about this for quite a while, even I don't have a concrete answer for this, yes or no. In the majority of cases, I would probably say no, but I can't deny that there are occasions and scenarios where it would be yes. An extremely mature teenager being in love with a small girl would definitely be jarring. But that isn't what we see here; not even close.

If at some point, the author decides to go the route of an actual coupling of a high schooler and elementary schooler, I would understand people's uneasiness. But until that point, there really isn't a purpose to the drive-by morality policing posts.

I think we all have a moral obligation to be condescending and dismissive towards the emotionally stunted children who try to propagate moral panics over works of fiction

Nobody has done that here. Nobody is doing it here. People simply stated that the situation makes them uncomfortable. No, we do NOT have a "moral obligation" to be an asshole to people who have different opinions than ours. What a Twittard-esque nonsense thing to say.

Last chapter really was my cue to get off this ride, but this one firmly cements it. It's unfortunate, because I liked the vampire yuri nonsense up until this point. I love this artist's style, so it's extra disappointing to see them incorporate such laughably bad scenarios and motivations for characters. This is the kind of character backstory I would have made up when I was 14.
