I mean, Asumi has mentioned a "night job" to Nanao, so she might be conflating the statement with an assumption that Asumi is the one doing the working here. I don't think she necessarily is aware that Asumi's spending the money here, so the room for misinterpretation is still there

ug disgusting :/ also whos the ***** that thinks the majority of age gap tag is some how an warning about an story of a perverted predator???

I never said that, I said "The majority of age gap stories here are minor/adult" and recommended about taking more care around the tag if they're worried about a situation like this coming up.

No reason to resort to namecalling though, no matter how censored you want it to be.

Remember kids: This is why you make sure that if you're not interested, you say so instead of beating around the bush.

Poor Nanao, she doesn't know that Asumi is addicted to good lesbian sex. But she might learn, oh she might learn indeed.

I'm still interested in Asumi finding Mai, but I think I'm starting to root more for just some kind of Harem End fueled by Asumi's raw, unintentional lesbian magnetism.

We don't have time to ask about "why," we only have time to ask "why not" and jump into a mess of degeneracy and perversion the likes of which will make baby jesus cry

Generally speaking, that's why the age gap tag exists. It's very seldom used for cases of a sizeable age gap between two adults and more commonly is used in a relationship between an adult and a minor.

Age gap is for exactly what it says on the tin. Age gap. It does not imply that an adult has been actively predating a minor, and we have quite a few rather wholeshome titles to prove it. Hey, we have whole SERIES based upon that NOT being the case.

I made a note of the other use of it at the end of the statement. It's much more common here for age gap to be representative of an adult and a minor. If I had to assume you're referring to "The Two of Them..." then that's the primary one I had in mind when I was thinking about the relative scarcity of age gap series and one-shots that don't focus on an adult-minor gap.

Plus, an active predator doesn't even need the age gap tag - an adult may perfectly be a predator of other adults... a fact which you should be IRL warned against if you were not already aware ;-)

I'll yield to that being a fair point, but would prefer it if you wouldn't insinuate that I'd be ignorant enough of it to need a warning.

I personally think this should have gone on longer than a few pages. It might have been nice to have been shown the information from the characters' biographies in the story rather than told about it in two paragraphs at the end.

It would be nice, it'd make for a longer story, but honestly this is already longer than the other two things the artist has posted so I won't complain much.

Anyways, hell yeah degenerates. I think the artist has a couple other things on their twitter that also look real good, but don't seem to be as... "complete" as this is.

If that novelist were an ugly fat guy, we would be screaming that is a sexual predator. She is certainly easier on the eyes than an ugly fat guy, that goes without saying, but shouldn't there be a tag for that tipe of "sexual predator" content? Just like we have tags for loli, futanari or het.
Anyway.
If that tag were to exist, she would be taking two of them, thank you ;-)

Also, no needs for "if whatever" because that's not the case here. Surprise!

I'm here for it

Honestly, the whole "wow this comment section condones cheating!!" statements and implications are getting kind of stale, if not outright annoying. I don't really get how hard it is to understand that it makes for a more interesting story and juicy drama, but it's still just a story. It's kind of insulting to insinuate that just because someone finds the drama created by cheating as interesting or engaging story-wise that they condone the acts in real life. The hell's up with that.

It's really not that common. Hell, as you can see from the following quote, it's so uncommon, this johnb had to walk back a comment about how people do this.

I mean, my comment was an indirect response to a recent, sarcastic "Cheating's okay if it's yuri!" comment, so it's not like I'm making up a guy. It's not as common as it was at the start but it's still just as annoying.

No no, you don't get it, when it's cheating in favour of yuri it's fine

bro it is literally fiction and a plot device in the story

This was a much lighter chapter than the others have been, save for the drama potential of that kiss right at the end. You love to see it.

I'm personally curious as to how these two know each other. Usually, age gap works have a sentence or two describing how two people from different age groups get together, but while Miu and Yuki seem to be, at minimum, friends at the start of the story, we don't know much about their relationship.

Maybe the reason they know each other in the first place is just

a coincidence.

I like how forward the girl is. A+

I feel like the ending might've been a little weak, and I'm sad to see it go, but I'm also glad to have gone through the whole thing. Even the extremely embarrassing part where she introduced herself to Misumi's parents.

Man, I don't wanna rag on Windyfall hard or anything, 'cause having translators in general is great even if some things aren't their strong suit, but the chapter reads much smoother from Bewitched's release

Ah, there's a nice bitterness to this. Like good coffee.

This is cute. Kei being so forward is pretty nice.

A number of people here are really expecting this to be some ghost or hallucination, but really with the type of story this seems to be it's probably more that she's just in Haruki's imagination, something she's given herself to help her through the stages of grief. And I can imagine that's going to be what this is about, and it will end with her accepting Sakura's death.

"This here is for you to die again (Haruki coming to terms with Sakura's death and accepting it) and for me to live once again (Haruki moving on with the memory of Sakura in her heart. or something. Wording it is hard)."

I imagine it as though the grief has her in a rut. She's pacing the same circle, over and over. This Sakura, the Sakura that "came back to life" through the journal, is her pulling herself out of that rut, only in the end to understand that Sakura would not have wanted her to simply waste away after her death in a perpetual state of grievance and despair. I can already see the "Thank you, Sakura. I'll be fine from now on" at the end. But that doesn't mean I'm not going to enjoy the ride in the meantime.

It's going to be bittersweet, but I bet it'll be fulfilling.

I'm in. Tragedy is always a great tag, beside drama and aaaaaaaaangst

Scum on Scum Action

eh, whatever. I'm in. Let's get along for the ride.

Do not misunderstand or assume that because I'm criticizing Nanase that I believe that Yuni or Fuuko are guiltless, I just believe that she's a contributing factor to the problems. I'm not really sure how she's any less guilty than Yuni or anything, but you do you.

or bat so hard for the creep for that matter.

I've said it in other story discussions, but I love awful women. I am a proud supporter of women's rights and women's wrongs. It makes for great drama, whether or not there's any lesson learned.
