Thank you!
How is your mood today? :)

Get frustrated over reading a stupid comment on the Netsuzou Trap thread, slept over it, woke up to see @Serena's hilarious sinnamon roll post. Went away for a bit, came back to see an argument almost starting, try to diffuse it. The usual stuff (lol)

Read this while listening to this song

^ Pity. But, if it makes you feel more comfortable then I understand ^ o ^

And don't fret about it so much, no one is blaming you ^ _ ^

You know in all fairness, I can see why @Serena got mad.

The specific thread for Netsuzou Trap is hardly devoid of it's share of non-constructive posts, honestly even I don't feel like discussing there sometimes, especially when knowing that I've to constantly be paranoid over which troll that dislikes the manga would want to suddenly quote my post and drag me into a conversation that I have no interest in having.

Compared to this cafe where a discussion can be facilitated like the ones I had with @Faust without the fear of trolls coming in and harrassing ppl that like the manga or the characters, I can understand why @Serena, who has probably observed the past few pages of posts, would get defensive over @Utopia's post. But like I said, I never intended to bring the discussion over to this thread, actually, the only reason I kept it going for so long is because I found tormenting @Utopia to be amusing, but even the novelty of that wears off after a while.

Actually you know, in all honesty I would really rather just create a Discord specifically for discussing Netsuzou Trap, I mean, I get that differing opinions are good for discussions too, but seeing some of the comments on the thread truly makes my mind beg for the sweet mercy of death.

Still, it's just a misunderstanding at the end of the day. Let's not let it affect our friendship here.

I think it's a perfect use of it; you acted as a peacemaker for your 666th post.
Truly a certain McRonalds employee would be proud. :')

True ^ o ^

^ Well, as @Galich said, the cafe always has a different host and I guess it's my turn. It's only right for me to try to keep everything peaceful.

I think I'll just go to bed early today. Have a nice day, thread.

Sleep well! Have a positive day tmrrw ^ o ^

This was not the 666th post that I was expecting to make...aw well.

Cmon guys, we're all friends here, and I'm sure @Utopia enjoys trolling me as much as I enjoyed tormenting him.

It's all in good fun, tis' all, no hard feelings at the end of the day.

@Serena

Don't be dejected,

Here's a 1 hr video of Papika from Flip Flappers saying "Cocona~ Cocona~ Cocona~", it does wonders to uplift your mood.

There, there guys, let's not fight this out.

As much as I'd love to torment @Utopia further by continuing to discuss Netsuzou Trap, I do think that this has gone way longer than I wanted it to. Let's just all take a step back and calm down.

^ I see you have what I call a reviewer's spirit; as in, being able to articulate your thoughts into words.

Your post was interesting to read and I would like to continue this further, but I think the topic has gone on for quite long enough in this thread ^ _ ^" longer than I wanted it to be anyways.

^ Tbh I'm not surprised that Yuma has an extra bust shot, considering much of the manga is her getting into sensual and intimate situations with Hotaru (lol).

^ I think I've laughed way harder than I should've reading your post (lol) XD Do give the interview a read when you can, it's quite insightful.

Also, link fixed, apparently, pixiv's login restriction applies to Dynasty Scans.

Annnd seems like there we have it, the secret behind the :o's, accurately portrayed in your display pic too

Have to admit that the :o face has a charm to it (lol)

^ I'm assuming until Chapter 12 :o Just have to wait for her to come online again to get an answer.

1 hr of Papika saying "Cocona~ Cocona~ Cocona~"

yawn

Good evening guys, just slept for like 4 hrs (lol) ^ o ^

Looks like a yuri love triangle story that doesn't end well. Don't understand what the partying scenes were supposed to mean.

The yuri love triangle between Rena (the focal girl), Jurina (the "player") and Churi (Jurina's "first" girlfriend) is pretty obvious; though it should actually be a love quad given the 4th girl that appears mid-PV. The party might be just a "regular" party...not clear of it's significance either.

Just going leave this here for Rina, I caved in and read Netsuzou Trap last night. Was okay, nothing too special. Hotaru and Yuma look adorable together (◡‿◡✿)

Surprised that you actually read it, then again, who could resist the charms of Hotaru for so long (lol), glad that you found it enjoyable at least ^ _ ^ Btw I loved your comment on the thread itself, just what I needed to see when I woke up.

Off to my choir practice, followed my music composition and then my piano lesson, hopefully I will survive this sleepy day and get a coffee as soon as I get the chance! A

Have a great day ahead!

Not sure about the 3d time charm.. imo the magic of stubbornness can break some walls ;)

You shall break down those walls and make the school pay for them ;D

@Faust

It's funny because when you read the interview, Kodama pretty much only mentions about how she enjoys drawing Hotaru and Yuma, and "making their boobs squish together". The main thing she mentions looking forward to seeing in the anime adaptation is how Hotaru and Yuma's bodies will be adapted as well the more intimate scenes of the manga (lol); Incidentally, she also admits that she is quite terrible at drawing delicate facial expressions compared to Saburouta, which explains Yuma's " :o " face in almost every artwork.

Hotaru is a precious sinnamon roll too seductive for this world. Yuma is a precious cinnamon roll that is actually a cinnamon roll.

I approve of this message.

And speaking of artwork, here's a pic of the various (online) retailer exclusive artworks that are included with Vol 3. Hotaru and Yuma looks so cute in those pyjamas ^ _ ^

I'm drinking Miso Soup from my mug while watching the Overlord dub atm, it's great (lol)

I've noticed that as well ;)

My music ratio is pretty much 98% Jpn and 2% Eng ^ _ ^"

And speaking of stories, I really should get around to writing that yandere yuri story that I had in mind soon...based roughly on this song:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbrxZgUq_1k

For January release, also look out for School Girls Strikers as well, which potentially to be very gay (but depend heavily on which part of the game they animate and which characters is focused on-screen, as there are 35 girls in there now ).

There are a couple of OTP in there, but once again, it depends on how Square Enix is planning with it.

Oo, I am definitely going to watch this.

You like the drama of the story, so here's another one:

It's not the manga that makes me think of this song but rather that post you really wanted me to read and the way you described the story with your own words... not sure if you'll see it too though ^^

Can't say that I'm seeing it actually :/ I've grown too detached from english songs ^ _ ^"

Speaking of songs, here's one of my favorite tracks from the 48 Family, SKE48's Kataomoi Finally,

And since we're posting songs,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WhDTBxho1Mk

Keeping in line with my current obsession, this is the song that I think best encapsulates Hotaru's feelings towards Yuma when I place myself to see things through her PoV.

Note: Other than @Utopia, please do tell me if my constant referencing is bothering anyone, I'll cut down on it ^ _ ^

But in all seriousness, it's been 8 years since I've first heard this song and it's still so good...
