"What is she, your wife?"

Hoping the answer to that becomes "yes" down the line.

The author definitely knows about scene sequencing, and the fact that the scene where that question is asked is immediately followed by the scene of Toda cooking for Tanaka at home is pretty much the author saying to the readers, that yes, she is.

I'm guessing the girl at the end is Toda's sister, and going by her reaction I'm guessing that Toda ran away from home.

Got the same impression.

On a side note, has anyone else noticed that Toda has been a bit more talkative these last few chapters?

Yes, but I think it's only when she is with Tanaka? From personal experience, when you are living with a person with a disability, you start unconsciously adapting to efficiently communicate with them, which helps them open up more, and so on in a positive feedback loop.

And if you're asking for fucking, why not go the whole way to handholding?

Because that would be lewd.

With intertwined fingers, even.

...you perv.

I know I'm late to chapter 10, but I somehow missed it last month, and wanted to observe that Rena is based AF.

Where can I start a petition to induce "Strong As Fuck State" into the official tokusatsu genre dictionary?

Also, while I wasn't sold on Utena x Kiwi before, this chapter has completely turned that around for me. I still slightly prefer Baiser x Azul, but at this point, I don't really mind either outcome anymore. :-)

And Shy's harem just keeps growing...

lmao

Now that I think of it, SHY may be a Superhero AU of Social Anxiety vs Yuri.

I have NEVER commented this before . . .

So it has come to this.

I like the honesty of "Please pretend you didn't see it forgive me!"

That line gave me a small chuckle and a lot of hope for this series. :-)

I thought she was turned on because the other girl was embarrassed and blush-y

My interpretation is that she has never been turned off in the first place -- only worried when her GF suddenly started bleeding from her face. So she took care of that, and as soon as the GF gave her an all-clear, she just let all of those pent-up sex hormones loose again.

How did she even become a CEO if she's living in a parallel reality? :D Also:

So she has a time ghost yandere doppleganger whose influence is making her fall in love with Menou-chan. I'm re-sold, I take it all back again. I love this now.

Tbh, I was so impressed by the reveal that Akari's superpowered evil side is actually her own consciousness from a messed-up future that I, too, had been about to void my earlier gripes with this manga. But then I let the emotional high subside a little and realized that while this one idea was kinda cool, the story as a whole is still a mess. The villain is still monologuing and bragging at the heroine for no smart reason; the other heroine can now pull an "I win" card out of her ass whenever the author needs a deus ex machina, with no limit or consequence that we know of so far; and the dragon fight is still a delaying tactic that doesn't even get cool action scenes anymore.

I think you yourself put it best earlier when you said, "the author is just telling us about these cool ideas they thought up rather than designing the story for readers". The yandere-me-from-the-future is just that -- a cool idea that has not yet been well-integrated into the narrative.

Welp, the series just went off the deep end. Can anyone in Japan write a plot where a pseudo-Catholic church does not turn out to be led by evil old folks? I dunno, just for the sheer shock factor.

That would shatter suspension of disbelief, even for wildcats like me

Understandable.

oooh a new character! i might be blind but i think she’s got both a devil’s tail and an angel’s halo? or maybe i just haven’t been paying enough attention… oh well, hope she’ll make for a more interesting character soon!

She definitely has a halo, but angels don't seem to have them -- at least, Liane doesn't.

I stand corrected by the latest chapter: judging by Glamor's halo, high-ranking angels do get them.

My theory is that when writing Gamma, Ogino Jun was supervised by a much more experienced writer/editor, which is why his debut manga turned out as good as it did. With that success under his belt, however, he seems to have been given a carte blanche to draw whatever he wants -- which turned out to mostly be his pet kinks, rather than quality superhero stories.

Why, thank you very much. It happens I did decide to write a book, which is mostly finished, but I've kind of lost momentum, so I find this rather heartening. Science fiction with a definite political angle.

Inject it straight into my veins, man. :-)

Since this series has been licensed by Seven Seas, we will be dropping it like we always do with licensed series.

This is like... the 5th or 6th series we pick up that gets licensed lol.

Oh darn. I respect your decision and your work overall, but it's extremely frustrating when publishers decide to pick up series at the exact moment it heads for the finale. :-/
