Nobody talks with their parents like this, though.

Now that's what I call effective teamwork.

Feels weird when a little bug is one of the cutest characters in a comic full of super cute characters.

I think it's the little bow on her antenna that really does it for me, I literally squealed with delight when I first saw it. So glad Koharu is back, and this chapter did an excellent job of showing off the personality of a character that can't really emote, and make me care for her. She's just a young girl with enormous dreams who is learning that what we want isn't always what we need, and that's very relatable and endearing.
I felt an actually chill down my spine when they found her upside down, and the scene where she can't let go of the chair was both adorable and a little heartbreaking. This manga is incredibly good at making characters likable.

Yeah, it's a pretty refreshing take on it. You rarely see "cozy slice of life" and "reanimating skeletons to do ones bidding" together.

You'd think people would have issues with her ordering around the remains of mice and monkeys in a world where mice and monkeys are people, though. And it also seems that the skeletons still have feelings and thoughts, at least according to Sen.

And on the topic of this being disappointing if you expect an yuri series, that's kind of your own fault, to be honest. I too was kinda looking for subtext at first, solely because it's a manga posted on this site, but Hakumei and Mikochi just seem like good friends, and that's okay. People can just be friends with each other without it being anything romantic. I do like that other characters wonder if they're an item or not, though (like that adorable beetle living upstairs). But I wouldn't call this series lesbian bait, or let that bring down its score.

Laika's feelings for Conju are 100% romantic though, and it's adorable. Not sure if Conju will return them or is even aware of them (she's not the most observant), but one can always hope.

Oh, and the beautician is the best character, I'd let her give me a mohawk if she wanted.

I like how cool everyone are being about reanimating the dead.

Oh crap, they just broke the wholesome-meter. We're reaching dangerous levels of heartwarming.

Yeah, after glorious moments like nude cooking shows and romantic dentistry, this felt a bit underwhelming. It's always nice to see more of them, though.

Because it's badly drawn?

Giraffe neck. Tracer's torso makes no sense here, either. Her ribcage is either half as wide as normal, or her neck is located on her shoulder.

I like how transactions between these two always involve underwear, no matter which dimension they're in.

Turns out the yuri was in our hearts all along. Or something.

This was strange but kinda adorable, at the same time.

All these generic cute-girls-doing-cute-things series just feel the same to me, there's nothing here that stands out at all, and none of the girls have much of a personality to speak of.

Thanks for your insight but I think we'll put a pin it and hang it on the 'how very interesting' billboard so that we know where it is and can avoid it without too much hazzle

So you're the type who is too insecure to handle the fact that some people might disagree with you, so you go into full on victim mode over trivial nonsense, huh? It must be tough living like that, my condolences.

And then that part of her subconscious was killed off for being romantic.

I think they're speaking the same language, Akko is just being painfully thick.

The "messenger from Hell" line is also from the old Japanese Spider-Man series. Nice.

I love this little moment of two characters who normally don't talk to each other bonding over corny manga. These two have a very cute dynamic.

We need more Lotte yuri, because she's best girl.

I honestly prefer rarer pairings like this, variety is the spice of life. And they both love pink, after all.

Emily needs to appear again sometimes, so fanartists can draw her in something other than that ugly Christmas sweater.

Do you think she actually needs to kiss the mirror to make it work, or is that just something the mirror says to women to get some action?

Yeah, it was nice that the dad seems to have nothing but his daughter's safety in mind, and also believes that she actually has powers and isn't just crazy. It's way too easy to just make parents in these kind of stories just evil antagonists, but he's being very reasonable.
And it seems like he never actually implied that the ayakashi would be dangerous or killed people, that was all Mahiro projecting. It just seems like he's worried that his daughter will stop interacting with humans.
Which again is a reasonable concern, because that's exactly what happened until just a couple of weeks ago.
And yeah, the constant unintentional flirting that never goes anywhere can be pretty frustrating, but that's the bread and butter of subtext manga. The only girls who don't come off as closeted lesbians are the fox gods and Kii, who is just a kid.

Smooth asf

The "oops, I spilled your tea, you have to get naked now" was a happy accident, but "oops, I somehow forgot to give you a place to sleep on our sleepover, looks like we have no other choice but to sleep together" was clearly a calculated move.

I'm having trouble seeing the pair here as anything but Sayuri and Yoriko.

If this was them, the senpai would've stripped naked immediately after getting wet, have her own bed flown in by helicopter and slept upside down, or something weird like that.

Awkward, flustered yuri with a happy ending (in both meanings of the word, in this case) is my fetish.
