o lawd she comin'

this manga is the definition of edging

Poor sisters, falling for a man of agriculture...

take your goddamned metaphorical upvote.

Oh my. I really like this one.

u-hauling in game, character and spirit

my new friend is an autistic gay punk

no UNICEF I do not want to sponsor a child

yeesh what the fuck

Lowkey obsessed with how this entire story ended up being about communication and shiz.

they should be teaching this manga at those communication seminars

Hiroko:
Every mf'er in the office:

That chapter's title just about summarises it

"she complimented me!" no shit

this is very gripping for reasons I haven't parsed yet

there's a little BDSM in all of us

no lolis
no netorare
no rape...ish

this is so tame for a Flowerchild manga that I could almost show it to my church-going grandma

I don't know how the situation could remain unclear anymore, at least for Hiroko. But you never know with this author. (and this is not a criticism).

simple enough...Hiroko thinks 'Ayaka likes a girl but it's surely not me'

i have a crush on risa

and I have a crush on commenter above

this unrequited love train just keeps on growing!

Where was the ra*e part or the inces*

well someone here sounds disappointed

Does this really count as Bisexual tho?
Ayame doesn't show any interest in girls and Ema doesn't show any interest in men.

Ya that just sounds like a bisexual couple to me.

The day that Momono Moto writes a 'basic' yuri dynamic is the day the gods smile upon us

Yes, impossible to know anything that one hasn't personally experienced, which is how it's impossible to write about anything outside the bounds of real life or to ever empathize with and reliably recreate experiences that are not one's own.

Come on, fiction is fiction. Sometimes creators can only draw from their own personal experiences, and much more frequently a story is born of pieces of personal inspiration that a reader might never have guessed at, material gathered from other people, general research/life knowledge, genre conventions, and straight up making things up.

Once, people kept asking this yuri artist if a particular series came from personal experience. She said no. And then she said "people ask if I made the story based on personal experience for every one of my [distinctly different] series. XD"

well, yes and no. The slight distinction here is that I consider all of this

material gathered from other people, general research/life knowledge, genre conventions, and straight up making things up

as being included under 'personal experience'.

But that is a purely semantic difference.

Thank you for uploading this, by the way! Fantastic work.

Hey guys, just so you know, I was interested in this series a couple months ago and bought the raws up to volume 2 (volume 3 just released) and if you're annoyed by Hiroko's complete inability to understand the words "I'm in love with you," I suggest you either drop this now or wait for all the chapters to release so you can read it all in one shot, because it just gets so, so much worse.

Now I'm fascinated. I'm having a hard time conceiving of an inability to understand that's "much, much worse" than what we've already seen.

Here's the basic rundown of major events up to the end of volume 2 for people who really want to know

you know what they say

limbo is the holiest state

The author is definitely depressed but that's not much of a stretch to deduce.

Really ? I always wonder how anyone can make assumptions about the author's life based on what they wrote. I know very happy and balanced people that write fucked up things and vice versa.

Simply because you can only write about what you know.

And it's impossible to know anything that you haven't experienced.

Authors who try to write about things they haven't personally experienced, there's a touch of inauthenticity about it. It's hard to escape autobiography.

You make a good point though.

that author's note just made me realise I didn't know who was saying what and I didn't care

(wish more people watched birdie wing)

Right, it's legitimately good. I guess most see the golf theme and kick it to the curb before even giving it a chance. It's certainly not what I was expecting.

if TL is invoking cato the elder to push birdie wing then I might give it a shot
pun intended
