I don't understand why people are find this twist unoriginal. Am I missing something?

On this board, unoriginal/uncreative/bad writing is usually code for "they did something that wasn't 100% happy and I don't like it".

So... does Jimiko stand for Teraji Miko? (Last part of one name and all of the other.)

Correct. There's a TL note about the meanings behind some of the character's names at the end of ch10.

Reminds me of Euphoria...

So there's a tangible origin to the derarenai no heya trope?

Okay this latest chapter is a little too on-the-nose for me - fighting an ice victim with fire.

I mean, Ice was Fire's weakness in Mega Man 1. And we have yet to see how well Teru has mastered her abilities.

First page currently missing from this new chapter

"Heroes"
kill many hearts.
They take the merits of hearts
and shut them away.

Hearts who have lost their place to belong to
wish for the end of the world.

Don't worry.
Even without bringing the world to its end,
we can just bring "heroes" to their end.

Now then. Let's bring the world
back to the way it was together.

A girl who died because she was bullied for liking girls?

She's a yuri ghost.

They gave this manga the axe... right?

I mean, there's no way the author would have ended it at that point by her own choice... there are too many loose ends left untied and too many Chekhov's guns left unfired... there was enough material for a couple more volumes, at the very least...

The onee-chan was cheered on and got the yuri. You don't really need more than that.

She attacc, she protecc, but most importantly: she won't bully you bacc

You had one chance to make a catchy rhyme and you blew it.

tfw you finally get a three page release and you're still relegated to the images section.

  • It’s alright. Kuyou hasn’t sad(sic) anything bad about you either.

Eep. Good catch. Fixed over on Mangadex (along with a few grammar fixes of ch12).

I thought it was done? Or did i already read it somewhere else xD

It switched publications from Comic Megastore Alpha to Comic Hotmilk, which could potentially mean we'll get new chapters monthly going forward.

axed?

Please don't. I get enough misuses of that word over on 4chan. The Pixiv Yuri-Hime stuff just tends to be only 1-2 volumes long.

Nice bears googled anon.

Can't take credit for those. That's all the typesetter.

I'm wondering why there is random french here https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/tsukarekitta_onna_ga_shinuhodo_iyasareru_tame_ni_ch05#12

In the original, they're pretty much saying "what" and "together" in weirdly pronounced Engrish.

YUSSS thank you translators! Does this mean chapter 14 will be out soon??

Translation's done. Just waiting on the QC and typesettery.

So its a doujin in the sense of self published - but since its the author of the series its simply a follow on one-off that is obviously cannon right?

Yeah, authors like to do that. Examples include Chocolate and Kase-san, that nsfw Poor Poor Lips epilogue, and don't get me started on all the Akuma no Riddle doujins that the original author made with Morishima. Basically let's them get to do the stuff they couldn't do in serialization (or sometimes just to promote it).

why isn't the title fully translated? wouldn't "Unicorn and Lonely Girl" work?

I struggled to think of a way to translate "sabishigariya" in a way that's distinct from how "bocchi" translates to "lonely" (eg. Bocchi Kaibutsu, Hitoribocchi), so I went with what the author phrased it as.

I can understand that, but nobody is going to know what "sabishigariya" means anyway, so idk if that's the best approach. Then again plenty of groups don't translate title at all.

Quick google search tells me "gariya" (がり屋) translates to "one who is" or "one who tends to be", so "sabishigariya shoujo" would translate to "girl who is lonely" or "the girl who tends to be lonely", assumedly referring more to her trait of feeling lonely rather than just her status as a loner.

Yeah, I'm gonna stick with Sabishigariya Girl if it's alright with you.

Poetic justice that Unicorn would be a purityfag.

Who is the middle-aged looking lady with glasses?

Mob-sensei, basically an OC Negom created (with splashes of Rikka from Dokidoki) to satisfy her Blue x Purple obsession since Ruru wasn't quite a thing near the start. Given that there's at least five or seven of these doujins out there (I hadn't even heard about this one), it's safe to assume it caught on.

You must be new to PreCure (or to official mangas based on kids' properties)

To be fair, chapter 7 is pretty much a yuri bdsm chapter.

That's like saying that it'd have been for Luke to take a lightsabre and go kill the Evil Emperor on a Death Star. We got a hero with the means, an evil bad guy and a superweapon; now we can have them fight it out and all is well. Everything else is surplus to the story and a waste of time.

Um... no? What you're describing is the end of a trilogy, not the beginning of a story. To use your Star Wars analogy, the beginning constitues a status quo (Luke living on Tatooine / Aoi forcing herself to live what is considered a normal life), a change to that status quo (R2D2 delivering the message from Leia / Chi-chan pulling her out of her arranged marriage) and an established quest (Luke and friend rescueing Leia from Darth Vader / Chi-chan and Aoi starting a new life together). It doesn't really need an extra hour or so of Luke shooting womprats and talking up how great Uncle Owen is.

I'm not of the "instant gratification" crowd. There's no point to anything if there's no proper build up. Insta love sucks, insta power sucks, insta tragedy rarely works ... take your time and establish what the heck is going on. It's basic storytelling.

Pretty sure basic storytelling also involves not adding unneccessary information. We have an office lady forcing herself to fit into society, cooky freelancer who's in love with her being all "fuck that", and boom, you have the setup for the series to come, which is the pair developing their post-confession relationship while also dealing with the consequences of their impulsive decisions. It doesn't need any more exposition than that.

Series is ongoing on Yuri-Hime Pixiv with five chapters to date, btw.
