Ah, no! Don't fall in love with that ho!

I see a woman who enjoys a healthy sex life, who has several sexual partners, all consenting adults, all very happy with a "no strings attached" relationship.
You see a ho.
Your slut-shaming is bad and wrong. Please don't do this again.

I think that "lore" dump wasn't necessary. I mean this whole chapter up until that confession scene convinced me that those two were super close.

I thought it was the best part of the chapter.

There's also I Wouldn't Mind Being Loved by Amano Shuninta. Plot is similar to Asumi-chan's except MC starts working at the brothel almost immediately. She makes girls fall for her left and right.
It's completed in Japan at 4 volumes. The first book was partly translated by Sexy Akiba Detectives; but then they stopped and I don't know why, I'd like to ask them but I don't use Discord. (Actually if some of you do use Discord I'd be thankful if you talked to SAD and asked them about the status of this manga and their plans for it!)

Worst thing is the hero always defined as a "nice guy" who gets all the popular hotties just because he's "nice" and that seems to be all the needed reason.

Compare this to the superior yuri harem manga Watamote, in which Tomoko gets the girls because she's a scumbag weirdo.

Are you aware that Watamote is a cgdct comedy for a male audience, created by two experienced shōnen mangaka, serialized in Gangan and sold as manga for boys?
And that nobody in Japan ever called it yuri, or tagged it as a yuri manga?

I sometimes wonder if we're all really on the same page when we think about yuri...

I see, I see. It's good that after all this time she's built up a tolerance, huh? Otherwise she'd melt into a pasty goo at the sight of Elsa's devastating cuteness. Right. Ok.
... And she still doesn't get it?
I want to kick something.

I noticed all the onomatopoeia are carefully translated. It must have been a helluva work to clean and rewrite everything. Now I'm full of curiosity about the originals. FE "ba-dum ba-dum" "ba-thump ba-thump" and "throb throb" given the context are all heartbeats so should be all "doki doki" right? But I wonder about "fret fret" and "shake shake" that are very similar in context too... and "scrub scrub" "slide slide" and "floof floof" are I guess variants for the sound of cleaning skin... and I wonder if "plunk" is really the right onomatopoeia for something being slowly submerged in water?

This manga is a lesbian version of Back To The Future. Don't think too much and just leave it at that.

Daphie you're the best. ♥❤ Here's hoping for much more onee-loli doki-doki goodness in volume two!

Did they try to kill the girl who had just confessed with a giant hammer?

1) Mom and auntie Ren were lovers in college.
2) Mom dumped auntie Ren because, y'know, the usual reasons: "Gotta stop playing around, gotta grow up, gotta do my filial duty, gotta marry and have children!"
3) Mom married some guy and had Youzi. Then she divorced him because she's a lesbian and having to put out for him sucked big time and she couldn't take it anymore.
4) Mom became a famous actress, Ren became a famous singer.
5) They meet again (partly thanks to Youzi) and Ren finds out that mom is living alone and raising her kid by herself... and that she often sings to Youzi the secret love song she and Ren wrote together while in college.

Present time, Youzi suspects that mom and auntie Ren still love each other but are silly & useless about it. Maybe mom also feels guilty for hurting Ren before and feels she doesn't deserve to get her back.

I like the way you think. I don't know if all of this background will ever be shown to us, and in fact it's better if some parts like the hetero marriage are never illustrated, but the story between them was most likely like this.

Could be interesting, but kinda unclear where it's going from here. What's the hurdle? "No, I can't accept that it's a woman!" and then we drag it out for 12 chapters?

You are bitter. You need huggies.

Everyone is so happy thinking that this is about polyamory and sexual fluidity... but me, all I have to say is: I'll believe Tsuzuki's story WHEN AND IF HIROKI AND FUKUNAGA CONFIRM IT, not before.

Tong Tong is precious and must be protected at all cost.

TongTong's mom agrees with you and will even fight XiaoLu's stupid mom for the sake of their kids' happiness. Yes, I've read ahead. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Lol the pic — spot on!

Ji Youyan's figure in tight pants is my new sexuality.

Jing Xiu must be crazier than a box of frogs to break up with this woman.

The maid must win

You misspelled Minister.

Are you sure? I thought the correct spelling is Priestess.

It reads like Princess Knight to me.

I mean, she's only 12 years old and she already has that body!? Omfg, imagine her in a few more years! Maou, do not hesitate: make her your bride and start grooming! (◣‿◢)

Essentially this. It is interesting how many people have come out of the woodwork to actually defend and outright try to excuse the main character. "Oh, the sister set up 90% of the blackmail herself", as if that is not an utterly insane position to have. Or concocting fanfiction scenarios where the sister is not bothered and is almost depicted as happy to be giving money to her "cute baby sister". (Amusingly, although there is at least one poster here who usually has issues with such fanfictional interpretations, they apparently do not have a problem if the particular fanfics are feeding into their own narrative.)

Bois-Guilbert, is that you?

Old school yuri for nostalgia's sake, I guess?
There was a time when all yuri was like this, all about closeness of the hearts... no pda, no dating as gfs, just feelings in their hearts.
We live now in a day and age with yuri about a girl going to a lesbian brothel and sampling all the hot babes is taken as normal... so I guess we have become spoiled and expect much more from our yuri than the readers in the past would have.

Umm why are u people discussing about Seto cheating on Nanasawa? O_o
Afaics Seto is perfectly happy with her two Nanasawas, big & small, and as long as they accept the triangle going-out-together thing she proposed (which they haven't yet, bit of a cliffhanger for now) there isn't a snowball chance in hell that she will cheat.

So... we already have reached lesbian marriage, but we still don't have yuri?
This is one complicated piece of narrative.
