Was jerkface being a wing man on purpose there ? It sure looks like it :O Also, Mitsuki is such a natural lady killer that she just can't control her powers for long :P

It's one of those cliches that gets on my nerves immediately, but as long as this springs Kurumi into action, it's all good with me I guess (^^) We already know how Ruriko feels, it's time for Kurumi to notice a few things about herself and the amazing person that happens to be her wife !

Welp, I'm officially obsessed. Hook it to my veins !! Give me the next chapter already XP Also, it's refreshing that the boyfriend seem like an all around decent guy, it makes it all the more poignant that Akira is so conflicted about her life.

I can relate to having a bad posture when writing, I'm left-handed and I sometime have to do quite the contortionist act to get to the margins (^^) I never hiss though, as far as I know at least !

The panels and facial expressions continue to be such an amazing feat of art! Hebimori makes the most faces in the whole manga from cartoonish to serious but we also have the Senpai from the theater who has the most hmmm unique style in the whole manga, she's very good but also a little devil.... also legs WOAH

Hebimori being the "rival" it's sure going to be fun, I'm pretty sure she's gonna get very passionate about her role because it comes down to Akebi being her "love" buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut unfortunately for her, she has to fight against Erika.

One more thing, they say "act normal" when it comes to such delicate subject but Akebi's normal is to get real close.

Hebimori wanted to impress her with her guitar playing and all but that never felt like a potential romantic thing to me, certainly not like it is with Erika at least. Mind you, at times it feels like the entire school is pretty much in love with Komichi, so who even knows at this point :-P

You could write ''useless'' in giant letters on a shovel and hit them both with it and they still probably wouldn't get the memo at this point :P

^^^ Heels can be popular too ;-)

Crowds always go for the retiarius . You can't get any cooler than fighting with a freaking net and a trident ! Oh, and the hot abs are probably helping a bit :P

These two are 100% canon and you'll never convince me otherwise.

I don't like it when Komichi gets sad :-[ That smile needs to be protected forever.

This reminds me of a Slayers OVA from long ago where the ''villains'' turn out to have a major humiliation kink and end up worshiping Naga, to Lina's usual consternation :P Can't remember what it was called sadly, I'm sure I still have the DVD somewhere.

That was so suave even I went a little doki doki reading it :O Mitsuki really is a lady slayer.

Dawwww Chidori is too proud to admit she misses her girlfriend big time ^_^ Cat-like indeed ( although I've always had super affectionate and clingy cats myself ) . Also, a meeting at 4:20 Nanoha ? You naughty girl you ;)

^ I kind of want Shamiko from demon girl next door to try that , if only for the comedy that would surely ensue XD

this is why i like this series so much bc instead of being a cute fluffy romance, its an introspective character study between two girls who arent perfect, which is pretty cool.

Mmhmm that’s me as well. The changing perspectives do a good job highlighting that relationships are two-way roads. They’re already teenagers, which makes everything awkward, but they’re also not exactly equipped for their situation either. Adachi’s mom is neglectful, poor girl has no idea how to interact with people, and Shimamura isn’t exactly a champ at the whole “friends” thing herself. It’s always an interesting back and forth between them and, as is the case for most good drama, I care much more about seeing them happy and fulfilled than I do just seeing them together because they’re the “main couple”

Speaking of the back and forth, I always loved how the upcoming mental breakdown places the ball squarely in Shimamura’s hands. Even if she doesn’t understand everything Adachi says, she gets to sit on how her perception of her has changed. I reeeeeeally like that, even if it takes a painful chapter to get there.

This is a very solid point. It's refreshing to read a story where the two main protag have real flaws that the author isn't shy about showing. Adachi is a giant mess at times and at her worst she can be downright toxic. Shimamura uses her ''go with the flow/ lazy girl'' persona to cover up a lot of very real insecurities and abandonment issues. These are less than perfect young people and it's fun to see them figure stuff out and improve.

Finally, a religion I can get behind !

Bedroom eyes, if I've ever seen them.

Love triangle?

I feel like there has to be at least some balance for it to be a love triangle. Otherwise it’s just an endgame and an annoying character.

I don't see any scenario where he would have his place in a potential love triangle with these two. Mitsuki isn't looking for new friends and Oosawa barely even registers jerkface's existence. He a talking potted plant to them, at best. He's ''there'' .

Yep, we're closing in on THAT famous scene in the novels. Things are going to get real ugly for a bit, especially if you happen to also have a few social anxiety skeletons/bad memories in your own closet (^^)

I guess jerkface isn't so bad. He's nosey but not in a mean sort of way. He better not be looking to get between these two though cause then I'll hate him for good !!

I always get a bit of a chuckle out of the classic '' oh no I'm graduating high school soon, life will never be the same '' trope. Now that I am in my late thirties, I can really see how unimportant those few years actually are in the grand scheme of things. To be quite honest, the one thing I'd like to tell adolescent me if I had the chance to would be something like '' just chill, none of it matters to you in like 5 years and you don't talk to 98% of the people anymore anyway'' :P

A drink and a view, Raiden is a gentlewoman of culture.

You know you have access to the real thing Bonnie? ;-)

I really wish we had gotten something like that in the end :-[ Too bad Hifumi didn't figure much into the plot at all in the last few arcs.

''I can assure you I am NOT enjoying all this tongue kissing ''
