So if I like this, will I like Pulse?

I dunno who that girl is on the right, but I approve of her panties-over-crotchless-pants motif.

I once read the comics in the newspaper right to left. Garfield wasn't improved or worsened, the others tended to make less sense.

I am sure you are familiar with "Garfield Minus Garfield", since it's been around for years.

But just in case you're not...

Mew, Ploy, Ice, Donut, Jigsaw. Is this Yuri or some John LeCarre spy caper?

Am I right in thinking these kinds of names are a thing in Thai manga?

Indeed you are, according to some information from early in the discussion.

Ah, interesting. I thought as much, 'cause I recalled something similar in Mistress Story.

Re-reading this from the beginning, this jumped out at me from Chapter 2.

First of all, thank you very much for the tag "read left to right" I'm lost if I hadn't saw that.

I have a bad habit of reading the first several pages right->left and then after getting confused noticing or remembering the tag and having to reread it, lol. Makes a surprising amount of sense that way still but not quite enough to not get lost.

Likewise. It's like getting back in my car after spending three weeks driving a semi.

I dunno why I am so intrigued by this pair. I have never seen the anime nor read the manga from which they originate. But there's something compelling about the girl who can't be seen finding someone who can see her and love her. I dig it.

This was nice and sweet and short and fluffy and you should read it if you haven't already.

Okay, downloaded the last few chapters from the translator's site. Very nice ending. Sorry to see that it's over.

Just read this whole thing start to finish, and enjoyed the hell out of it. Shame it ended here on a cliffhanger. Anybody know where I can find the remaining chapters in translated form?

There's one around here, but I can't remember which one it is, and it's driving me crazy. Anybody remember which doujin it was with this chapter title?

Not so much in the first one, but definitely in the second one.

Clover - Chapter 2 and the follow-up Clover Extra - Happy Days fit the bill nicely.

I just realize that all the ch in Clover are related by the sisters but in different time line. ( or is it just me )

No you are right, the chapters start from the youngest of the 4, going from Uzuki, Midori, Fuuka and, Ichige. But each story takes place when they are in High school, so the timeline was moving backward instead of forward.

Ah-hah! Thanks for clearing that up. I knew it was about 4 sisters, but I was confused as to who the sisters actually were.

Very good series, start-to-finish. Straight to the Favorites pile.

I am still enough of a fanboy to feel a little thrill from crossovers.

@Alice Cheshire

Lol if it's not straight up fluff everyone loses their shit here

There's a difference between "not fluff" and "unhappy ending".

Except that this "what an awful story" parade happens in everything but. Sugar coating every story with a happy ending doesn't change reality so it's nice to see an alternate once and a while. Obviously not everyone agrees.

That, and a lot of people don't understand that not liking something doesn't automatically mean that thing is bad.

Always annoys me, too. There's a lot of stuff I like that's complete crap, and there's some really good stuff that I can't stand. (House of Sand and Fog, I 'm looking at you.)

I thought this was a good story. Author clearly wrote it with an objective in mind, and it looks like they successfully achieved that objective.

I do kinda wonder how the "OMG THIS IS TEH SUX! IT IS TEH WROST EVAR!" crowd vs. the "Not all stories need a happy ending" crowd breaks down vis-a-vis age and romantic experience. I've got a fair few miles (romantic and otherwise) under my belt, and I...well, "enjoyed" is probably the wrong word, but I appreciated this story and thought it was effective. I couldn't handle a steady diet of it, but the occasional unhappy ending makes the happy endings in other stories feel that much sweeter.

I just really liked the Delinquent/Delinquent pairing, with the senpai trying to become more responsible and less delinquent-y because she wanted to be a good senpai.
