I've found a new character to hate hate hate. His motherfucking name is Junichi.

Thank you Daphie and everyone who works in this project for the new chapter!

Gorgeous art.

I want to find the asshole who killed Lapis's precious person and kick his ass. Grr.

Five years ago, I wrote the first message in this thread. FIVE YEARS.
I can't believe it's over now. Five years have already passed? Seriously? Feels like it was yesterday...
And Akira is still girlfriendless??? Wtf?

We need more of 'em.

Two more chapters have been translated, as well as the extras at the end of the volume. Gonna upload them?

Finally a 4-koma comedy manga that is actually funny.

Have you tried Comic Girls?

The only tag for this work is the "Yuri" tag? How lazy! You're gonna make it feel lonely and unloved!

Quick, find a dozen more tags for this lovely piece of fluff!

I absolutely love the way the translator handles sounds effects and onomatopoeias.

It catches the original feeling to a tee. It makes me feel like I'm actually reading the original Japanese text, haha.

I suppose next time they'll have to come out of the closet.

You win the thread.

Aww, "wholesome" and "lots of sex" are a great tag combo.

Tsubasa: "I'm blessed..."
Readers: "WE KNOW!!" ‹jealous growls›

Let yourself be loved.

It's a really old joke: a woman (or somebody passing as one) tries to get rid of a pesky suitor by making herself odious -- only to get him even more excited. I've seen it in tons of manga series, anime and games. And even in Western media! (As Joe E. Brown told Jack Lemmon, nobody's perfect.)

I'm very happy that we avoided the silly cliché here -- and instead solved the omiai problem in a quick and expeditious way.

thanks for the all the hard work gouma-den!

Same. Now, if someone started again to work on Black & White...

This manga is impressing me so much. It started so innocently and now it all keeps coming together.

@BLAMEY that was an amazing post!!! Your analysis of the plot is packed full with good information and I feel like I have now a much better understanding of what's going on. Thanks for sharing all of this with us!

This reminds me that time in Azumanga Daioh when the winter holidays had arrived and all the girls were making plans for Xmas and New Year. They would party together! Go to fun places together! Maybe travel to an onsen together! Lots and lots of stuff! It would be so great!

Then Osaka asked: "Nobody has a boyfriend?"

A long awkward silence punctured by many death stares followed.

Yui is an angel.

Playing wingwoman for these two is so exasperating, I know I wouldn't be able to do it.

I hope she herself gets a girlfriend before the conclusion.

Suddenly, Kurumi realized she's craving clam!

It feels like it was yesterday when I wrote the first message of this thread. Kusun.

Did you know? This MLP season was very popular in Japan, and this particular episode is known among fans as "the yuri episode". Hehehe, they even officially tagged it like that in the web channel that showed it! ^_^

I love the kind of Puss in Boots dynamics Lapis has going.

The Japanese have a good understanding of these things. I think it was in FLCL where I first found a detailed explanation; it was one of the girls who, at some point in the story, told the others why she loved Puss in Boots: "The cat keeps telling lies. He starts making up lies at the beginning of the tale, and then he must make up more and more lies so that his previous lies won't be exposed. Just like that the lies keep piling up -- bigger and bigger and even bigger lies! And when it looks like things have reached the point where it's impossible to keep up the front and the mountain of lies is going to crumble... the cat does something that turns all the lies into truths! And he lives happily ever after."

Looks to me like Lapis will have to make an existential choice: be a villainess who just pretended to be a good person (and break Natori's heart) or turn the lies into truths and become a paragon of virtue for realsies (and win Natori's love). Remember Puss in Boots, Lapis!

Nakano still wearing those cumbersome earrings while working is soooooo sweet. Hold tight girl. Your sweetheart is f*cking her way through whole campus for you.
