God bless Ticcy

Touko looks comfy.

The funniest part for me is that you could just take this at face value with no innuendo and there would be no joke. It would make sense, but would be boringly pointless.

I can't tell, if there is actual romantic tension between Kasumi and Sakurako, or I'm just looking through my yuri goggles, and seeing what I want to see.

Sakurako basically just made a direct romantic confession to Kasumi in chapter 32. As people here have already mentioned, "The moon is beautiful, isn't it?" is a line that's directly associated with romantic implications in Japanese, due to it being a reference to the (unconfirmed) teachings of a famous writer. Sakurako's mention of, "I guess you don't know that one," is just further confirmation that she was alluding to the reference and not actually talking about the moon being beautiful.

At this point I'd say it's outright undeniable that Sakurako has romantic feelings for Kasumi. From my point of view, it seems like Kasumi is still slowly cluing in to just what her relationship with Sakurako has exactly become however.

I forgot that this even existed until today, but watching Hime leverage her position to manipulate the other girls was great. I could get attached to this character pretty quick if she keeps it up.

Is it over? D: There's no status tag...

Akko pulls away

Diana: "Damn, I lost"

Not enough Chiyuri appreciation in this thread. Best character.

If you really overthink it, this is kind of a sad story.

"Too much yuri anime"

There's like, 5 yuri anime in existence. How could one possibly watch "too much" of it?

Personally, Anne was my favorite character (even though I'm not usually a huge fan of the obliviously stupid type), so I'm happy with this.

Akko's a decent bit shorter than Diana in the anime. This picture makes them seem near the same height, but I think the only people actually shorter than Akko are Lotte and Cons iiirc. She's pretty small.

-Spoilers for DDLC down Below-

All of the poems can be found on the wiki: Natsuki Yuri.

Two of the few poems I particularly find to be of interest are the beach poems from both Natsuki and Yuri, which they wrote for each other. Natsuki's poem has a clearly romantic style to it. If you are feeling skeptic, you could say that it's purely stylistic and metaphoric, but it is there. Yuri's is less overt, but if you read it with the right frame of mind you could interpret it to be quite suggestive itself.

Another two poems I find interesting are the two cryptic poems each from Natsuki and Yuri in Act II. They get pretty graphic so I won't repeat them here, but they seem to be directly related to each other, particularly the end of Yuri's cryptic poem.

Also from Natsuki is the "cry for help" poem which mentions that "she always wanted to be better friends with Yuri." As well as Amy Likes Spiders, which has the obvious intention referring to Natsuki's like of manga, but if you want to be extremely critical of every detail, the poem could be interpreted to have a second meaning.

As for the in-game dialogue, I don't have access to the game right now for various reasons. The lines I'm referring to are scattered throughout the game, but they're there if you're looking for them. There's one line from Monika specifically about how she can't stop the girls from falling in love with you and it's like they're hardwired to by the game, or something along those lines. This is obviously after she reveals to you that she's been driving them crazy by tampering with the game files. I believe there is also a part in Act 4 (after you delete Monika) that shows Yuri and Natsuki reading together, or something along those lines.

Anyways, sorry I couldn't be more help and post actual dialogue from the game. I'll be able to play it again in a week or so, so if you want me to take some screenshots I could do that then, before school starts back up for me.

My Brain: There's going to be some kind of catch and a specific (and purely platonic) reason that Uri wants Neeko to sleepover. Nothing will really happen next chapter except for some kind of comical misunderstanding.

My Heart: THEY'RE GOING TO FUCK!!!!!

Actually, I've always thought that there were heavy implications that Natsuki and Yuri do have feelings for each other, but the "game" forces them to fall for the MC (if the player goes down their route). I thought that there was a lot of dialogue and even some poems that kind of pointed towards that, but I've never seen anyone else bring this up, so maybe I'm just crazy.

As for what BlueBerry said, going down Sayori's route in act I and a scene in act 4 show Natsuki and Yuri reconciling with each other and growing close. There are also multiple lines of dialogue sprinkled throughout acts I and II that suggest that Natsuki and Yuri actually want to get closer to each other, but end up fighting because they are too awkward.

I keep hearing these rumors about all of this DiAkko fanart that the creator/director (I assume people are referring to Yoh Yoshinari when they say this) drew, but I can't seem to find these drawings anywhere. Does anyone have a source on them?

There are tons of references to Western t.v. and entertainment in LWA, Hanna and Barbera being one (two?) of them. Other notable references off the top of my head include: Salem Saberhagen being in a yearbook from the school, Team Solo Mid and Cloud9's League of Legends Spring Split rosters being displayed on a giant screen, an homage to Dexter's Laboratory, and many others.

Ok, I just read through the older comments, and I think there might be a different way to interpret the back cover. I don't have any evidence to back this up, it's just on speculation, but I'll put it in spoiler tags anyways:

What if, at the end, the big argument is resolved by Kotooka apologizing and explaining her past to Tsukasa and Washio, where they discover Kotooka's feelings on homosexuality. Tsukasa then confesses to Washio and Washio, knowing that Kotooka is against homosexualty, decides to date Tsukasa. Kotooka notices Tsukasa acts differently and she, knowing that Kotooka wouldn't be comfortable with her and Washio's relationship, tells her that she got a boyfriend. The boyfriend in question is actually Washio. Tsukasa and Washio grow closer, while Kotooka grows more distant, partly due to their falling out and partly due to them growing up. They still get together as the old trio from time to time. Washio brings up the wedding as a very nonchalant remark for a conversation topic to make it seem like she only heard of it through word of mouth in front of Kotooka, even though she likely knew a lot of the details already from Tsukasa herself. It would also kind of explain why Tsukasa becomes so flustered when Kotooka brings the subject up.

Well, it's a bit convoluted as it is right now, but I think it still makes more sense than what everyone else is thinking with the way the manga had been going so far. Still, anything could happen I guess.

Look, while Tsukasa and Washio have been about what's the sensitive thing to do to not hurt the other person's feelings, all of Kotooka's thoughts have been about how the desires and wants on Washio are inconvenient to HER, and how unfair is that Washio wants to ruin something that Kotooka's holds fear, regardless of how Washio feels

That's a bit misleading. Kotooka thinks all of their feelings are inconvenient to all three of them (and she's kind of right). Even Kotooka's own love for Tsukasa is an inconvenience for her. More than anything, she just wants all three of them to be happy, and she realizes that can't be the case where their feelings are fulfilled because they contradict each other. She made a mistake by blowing up at Washio and subsequently splitting apart the group, which is exactly what she wanted to avoid, but she has a lot on her plate and it's been hinted that she has some trauma from her past. Making a mistake doesn't make you a bad person. We just have to wait and see how it is dealt with.

Half the comments dumping on Kotooka have apparently never been a teenager. Or had a bad day, or any sort of negative emotional reaction for that matter. :/

She's in a shitty time of her life, in a culture that heavily stigmatizes lesbian relationships, and she's having problems piled on her like all the cheese in the world's most american burger. And people are coming out swinging calling her a narcissist. Have you actually ever met a narcissist? Because Kotooka's personality and motivations don't reside in the same hemisphere as one of those.

For serious guys, have some chill.

Yeah, being a spectator and being a participant are such insane changes in perspective and I think a lot of people struggle with realizing that sometimes. At the point of life the characters are in right now, you begin to deal with so many new things between horomones, responsibilities, etc. that sometimes you forget to take a step back and evaluate yourself. Kotooka definitely fucked up and handled the situation poorly, but it doesn't mean she's a bad person (and certainly not a narcissist, lol). It really just depends on how she handles things when/if she realizes that she made a mistake.

Ah, I missed this series. <3

Too many girls. I don't even remember who swaps with who, when or why.

There are only two pairs that swap, so four girls in total. They're all named after seasons, aka the girl with dead eyes and the blonde one, and the ones that actually swapped in this chapter.

This manga lost its sense of purpose. its more and more a CGDCT and the "yuri" is just another aspect of cuteness.

I think that's always been the case though? It didn't really lose anything.

Oh a new member!

Welcome to Dynasty Reader! I hope you will enjoy here!

Low-key the mods here have a really low tolerance. So be careful.

Lmao. UlquiorraSchiffer1 back at it again.

At school
New Years

These ones are pretty good. I'll just leave them here.

Hmm... Not that I'm aware of. I went through my settings and tried whitelisting dynasty-scans.com/* but it didn't seem to make a difference. I also tried enabling native script import, but didn't give it a browser profile path, but if I understand what it is, I shouldn't need to do a native import right? I tried disabling all of my extensions and running it, but it still didn't come up. I've also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the script, and I've tried clearing my cache and cookies and restarting the browser...

Well, I didn't mean to bother you, so if nothing stands out to you don't worry about it too hard. I was mostly just wondering if I was missing something stupidly obvious, or if there was an easy way to troubleshoot it. Thanks for your help so far. I'll probably keep tampering with it for the next few days and see if I can't get something to work.

Hey Alice, not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but I installed Tampermonkey and your script last night and I can't seem to get it working. I'm running chrome on Windows 10 and when I click on the Tampermonkey "badge" it shows that the Dynasty Thingifier is on, and there's a red 1 that hovers over it while I'm on Dynasty, but I don't see any menu to the left and I can't seem to access any of the features. I've never really used userscripts before, so I'm not sure if there's something I'm missing, or some particular reason it's not showing up, but the script seems really useful/cool, so any help I could get with troubleshooting would be appreciated. Thanks :)
