I get the vibe that the kid is crushing on the aunt? Not really genre fare, of course.

At this point I don’t buy that this is a cover marriage for the husband, which isn’t to say it’s not a marriage of convenience. I just think that comfort and safety are enough for him and not for her. You see a bit of it when he asks about kids in what seems a very genuine way, while Ayano is maybe more noncommital in her response.

Either way, it’s a good decision on her part to be honest about the affair now (second only to before it happened).

Also! This manga is so good at conveying the awfulness of trying to peaceably maintain a conversation that’s making you feel like shit!

I feel like most of the discussion about masc/femme presentation in this thread is already in agreement?

Also: senpai crossdressing to trick a girl is some BAD MESSAGING and the story should probably get the fuck away from this subplot asap.

Nico absent-mindedly preparing dinner while everyone’s fucking around is low-key the best part of this doujin.

Not entirely sure why folks are immediately mad at the new girl. She seems pretty chill up to now, it’s just that Shizuku is having that social anxiety moment of “AHHH IT’S MY FRIEND’S FRIEND WHAT ARE THEY GONNA THINK OF ME I BET THEY THINK I’M MEGA LAME OH GOSH OH GOSH I’M SO UNCOMFORTABLE”.

The tier list has been revised as our experts glean more data regarding the state of the game

• C-tier: Cherries, Oranges, Pineapple, Tomatoes
• Insufficient testing: Durians

I'm confused? Why exactly is Miwa considered a pain? Can someone please explain what makes her a pain? I feel like I'm missing stuff D:

I read it like this: She's a high maintenance person. She has a particular way that she's imagined certain things unfolding in her relationships, and when they don't go that way, she's just visibly disappointed. She's considerate enough to not boss people around to suit her whims, but she still overthinks everything and isn't good at hiding when she's unhappy.

Which means, basically, that her friends and girlfriend, who are relatively much more laid back and a little insensitive, wander into her little disappointments like a minefield and accidentally bum her out. And they know they didn't do anything wrong, but neither did she really. They love that she cares so much because it generally means she's a sweetheart, but sometimes it's just a little exhausting to deal with.

Here I am just scrolling the forum and you come for me like this.

Have 30 dogs lick her all over

I can’t stop laughing oh my gosh.

Not super sure about Akashi-sensei’s decision to devote an entire chapter of the story to Maekawa roasting the hell out of me, but I guess I’ll see where we go from here.

• casual, unfraught hookup

plus

• firm respecting of boundaries

and

• bench cat

make this the best NSFW doujin I’ve read in the past three months.

Tfw you’re train-washing your homies’ backs in an incredbly not-gay fashion.

Meat is Heterosexual

Angst this chapter? Sounds fishy to me! ahahaha Ahahah AHAAAHAHA!!!
cries
catches on fire

Bless.

I want everyone together with everyone in this one.

Now this is the ingenuity I’m looking for.

She’s right though the deliverymen are cute together.

I really hope this isn’t setting up for Akira being sent the message that she shouldn’t worry about her appearance. Telling that to a trans girl is, at best, incredibly unhelpful.

I truly cannot get enough of the Bad Decisions everyone is making. It’s a beautifully drawn disaster.

Over here wishing we weren’t using assault as a romantic hurdle.

This seems like a potentially POWERFUL ship.

Comparing Amane's skinship to molesting is just pure dishonesty. These are not sexual advances. When Nene rejects her, Amane backs off. When she wanted to kiss her she asked Nene first. You really have no idea what molestation or sexual harrassment actually are, do you?

That’s a super corny shot to take and just reminds me of every person I’ve ever heard ask “Okay, but did he touch you?” Like, from all that we’ve seen Nene has clearly and definitively made herself unavailable romantically to Amane. Asking your ex for cute makeouts is maybe okay once your relationship is on VERY SOLID ground, and even then if they say “nah” you leave it alone. Amane just. doesn’t. stop.

Nene doesn’t have to be a saint to have her boundaries respected. She doesn’t even have to be nice or decent.

Have everyone define their boundaries before the fucking, kids.

It’s just not fucking okay to make advances on an ex who: not only broke off the relationship, but has consistently rejected your prodding, asking leading questions, and inconsiderate confessions.

I don’t think Amane recognizes what she’s doing as harassment, but intention doesn’t absolve her of responsibility. Especially after Nene agreed to stay friends because she knew it would soften the blow for Amane. She’s just been exploiting that trust selfishly.

I hope Amane finds a healthier relationship than what she’s immersed in, yes, but right now she’s doing all of the hanging-on.

We don’t know why Nene agreed to stay friends, just as there is ambiguity about why she broke up with Amane in the first place.

There’s no evidence in the text of any “trust” on the part of Nene that Amane is supposedly “exploiting.”

She’s clearly upset whenever Amane tries to make things romantic, no? It doesn’t seem like she had any idea ahead of the break-up that Amane would make the request, either, or that she had any real intention of exploiting the friendship.

At the moment it reads like “I’d like to continue getting along with you like you asked, but you’re making it incredibly difficult.”
