The comments for this image might need some attention.

Casusby looks to be on it, but I'll keep an eye out for anything further. Thank you.

Adachi and Shima need some organizational help.
Leaving Azure 2 (Ch27.2) leads to the April Fools' chapter (Ch25*) then to Leaving Azure 3 (Ch27.3).

Done, thanks!

This means a lot when you take into account that Takamine and Sakura's train schedules align only thanks to the fact that the former quit volleyball, were she still part of the volleyball club she would be leaving school too late to commute together with Sakura

That is such a cute detail.

The characterizations were so stark. I know these types, but they were so deftly executed it felt like I was learning about them for the first time. The confession sequence was really good, too. Saying nothing about anything, while spilling everything. Then, holding her, just staring in silence. No wonder short hair was literally weak-kneed after! I really do like those clever bits of writing the most.

Her own surprised blush really reminded me of another scene like that, even though they're totally different. Thanks so much knight heron!

Edit: Just to say I love Fukaumi Kon's art. And writing too, but the last part was obvious I think.

I don't mind grim and gore too much, but does it lean heavily into the horror...? I could barely even get through Otherside Picnic sometimes...

Don't know if this has been posted before but my email alerts quit working, could I have followed too many series?

I'm sorry, this is a known issue with our having been blacklisted by many email services. It will be fixed eventually, but I can't offer more specifics at the moment. There will be an announcement when it is.

Lol. I said it’s necessary, because it is. It’s there to break old things down. It’s a wrecking ball, though, and centre-left is there to pick up the pieces and pass it to the centrists, and the right complains about the new stuff, like it was better before.
It’s like repaving a road. Someone rips up the old stuff, making a mess. People come and put down new stuff that works. All the while some people complain about the traffic and the smell instead of appreciating an improvement.

What I’m talking about:
“Any possibility of a relationship means dishonesty of any kind is the worst thing ever” oy, vey, it’s basic drama.
“What if she was trans” absolute mishegas, and offensive.
“Tropes stereotypes oh no” rachmana litzlon! The horror! /s

There are other pointless arguments happening, but whatever.

I’m not exactly gonna mourn the loss of commenting here if you don’t like how I tell people to chill the f out.

I wonder why just now you decided to show up. It’s almost as if I brought up a certain subject in passing…

Sure. Banned 30 days for repeat violations of Rule 1, Rule 9, and a refusal to stop when told. You're welcome to return after, provided you're able to follow the rules. Always available for review. Take care.

Well there was a main problem with that, the series didn't start the translation here right away, it came to dynasty with like 30 chapters already, that's too heavy of a topic to condense in a comment, a lot of people have not give it a chance yet but I'm sure that anyone who does will feel a change in their life.

Yeah, that's a good point. The MangaDex chapter comments were always pretty engaged, though. Given its depth and themes, it seemed to evoke a lot of personal, introspective comments. There was still something lacking though, as I'm not sure how much was said about the manga directly. Really is a hard one to pin down.

Weirdly enough, that's like the one thing the admins don't want people arguing about.

If you see any given user violating the rules, Rule 10* in this case, please report it in the FAQ thread at your earliest convenience. Thanks.

*Tags are meant to inform users so that they may interact with works that appeal to them, and avoid those which do not. Avoid making repetitive comments on works with tags you wish to avoid. Repeat offenders may be disciplined as necessary. This rule also applies to pairing tags. Do not engage in "shipping wars" in doujin threads or image comments.

I swear that girl is a walking kabedon. The series feels pretty melodramatic, but reframing Mitsuki's anger probably reduces the overall drama potential by a lot.

The Holocaust discussion in the above thread has continued, and I really think it's both wildly inappropriate and will only serve to chill discussion. It certainly makes me uncomfortable.

Cleared up things again. Will continue to keep an eye on it, thanks.

Nah, they do. This thread is for the manhua Lass. Further off-topic posts will be removed. Thanks for your work.

Um...I don't know if this is the right place to take this, but I'm feeling pretty weirded out by a response to a post I made: https://dynasty-scans.com/forum/topics/20263-lass-discussion?page=4 (it's the one responding with a photo from the Holocaust...)

Disagreeing with me is fine, but this feels very uncomfortable. I'm not sure if it breaks any rules, though. Am I being too sensitive here? (sorry if this is something I should have done privately)

Absolutely the right place. I don't think Holocaust memes, regardless of the point being made, are remotely acceptable in this space. Hopefully not something I'll ever have to add to the rules, thanks for reporting it in a timely manner.

Yeah E. Vigée Le Brun, not remotely appropriate. Post removed. Don't do it again.

Your post was removed as well, Giftnova. This is not because the offences are remotely comparable, happy to discuss elsewhere if you need to.

What if there was a way to see tags that have already been suggested, but haven't been approved yet? That way you don't keep getting suggestions that are already under consideration or have been rejected.

Yeah, it's not perfect but I'll share a full list when we do the update here soon.

I mean adults are just bigger children in a lot of ways

Given the abundance of stories on the loss of childlike innocence or the impending tragedy of graduation, one might expect a notable amount of others showing what comes next. It's not super related to this manga though, and I wouldn't expect anyone to read this with the idea that it's more than a fluffy comedy. So, I'll leave it at that.

They don't really read like cops to me. More like the author started writing an otaku schoolgirl yuri but really enjoyed drawing the police hats.

How I feel reading Adult life yuri most of the time...

Lol I dropped this a while back because it started to suck immediately after chapter 1, and now I'm seeing it has the rape tag?

No surprise, bullet fucking DODGED.

But despite me not reading this manga, its existence is pissing me off. The premise of the manga is that a homophobe is shown that girls can love each other, and yet the gay character turns out to be a rapist?

WTF. Yeah that'll convince her. Like what's with the fucking disconnect between the title and the actual manga?? It's about her "falling" in love but everything has been forced on her. Is this a troll manga or is the author just stupid? This shit is just perpetuating stereotypes at this point.

Not liking a manga is fine. Sharing your distaste for it in a vent post is not fine. Consider this a warning: next time, move on. Posts like this harm the experience of everyone here, they won't be tolerated. The rules are always open for review. Thanks.

Meta -
I think a lot of the meta debate needs to be moved into another thread because it’s becoming a massive buzzkill to see the same people arguing in the comments over the arcana of translation and what does yuri REALLY mean, to the point that it’s drowning out any and all discussion of the actual work. I dropped out of grad school to get away from people arguing the enjoyment out of everything I found interesting, and it’s really bad vibes to see that sort of circular argumentation happen here. It’s just really tedious y’all.

Yeah, that's super unfortunate when it does happen. But I don't find that to so much be the case here, as various unrelated discussions seem to take place here quite persistently. I spotted very little hoarding, too. To help, I counted all the posts from August 27th until your post. Just keeping it to the types of comments you're highlighting, I saw 3 posts on "the arcana of translation", and 13 on "what does yuri REALLY mean." That would be 16 of 190, if my overall counts are correct. Now, there were some other topics that didn't necessarily relate to the manga, but most of them were non-sequitur, or came and went quite quickly.

I'd encourage anyone who wants to see more discussion of the manga to focus their attention on that. In my counting I noticed that whenever new chapter discussion came up, wlftchtr82 was always there, lurking in the shadows...(to their great credit, of course)

Conversely if one really feels the thread is going off-the-rails, I'd encourage them to report it in the Help thread. Some meta discussion is tolerated, but doing so at the expense of more related topics is very much discouraged.

I like a lot of the rules folks laid out here. On the rare occasion I leave any kind of post beyond a line or two, they're most often a means of distilling my thoughts so as to better understand them. It makes sense (to me) to share those thoughts, good or bad, to encourage others to expand my perspective (and hopefully do the same in return). On the flip side, I guess I'm rarely bothered by critical or dismissive comments toward stories I like. If something doesn't work for you, well, that's just how it is. Not really my business.

Edit: Though, I can definitely relate to OP. In general when I run into a fandom that has a deep love for something I do not, I'd rather keep quiet and find other folks to talk to about it. It's kinda rude to interrupt people having fun to rain on their parade, ya know?

[...] as long as negative comments are actually constructive criticism [...]

See, to me, constructive criticism isn't negative at all. It's a great starting point for discussion or disagreement, but it's positive because you can build on it. I see negative comments as the ones that don't leave room to build.

That's interesting. Personally I adopted the word "productive" a couple years ago to capture that difference. I think your definition "don't leave room to build" is a very good one.
