I love this manga. I probably am the only one in this forum, haha. But what can I say? It pushes all my right buttons. It has pretty boy crossdressers, lez girls, bi girls, a whole array of lgbt characters, all sorts of sexy situations, gorgeous art in a realistic style I totally like... I guess the one thing that kinda disturbs me is Seiji's recent character development, but it's obviously meant to be disturbing so it should be ok. On the other hand, that Yuki... what is she doing going after Akira and Gin when she clearly has a chance with Asa, who is, like, the hottest babe in the universe??? I don't understand what's she's thinking at all. Even Gin realizes the explosive allure of Asa/Yuki, geez.

Hachimitsu Scans is releasing at full speed, as usual, so we will probably get two-three more chapters in a few days. Looking forward to it!

NO NO NO NO NO. I NEED A SEQUEL. PLS. LET BOTH OF THE WOMAN BE HAPPY HAVING A CHILD. DON'T DO THIS TO ME T_T

Aww... we are all feeling like that. There, there. It'll be alright. (hugs Polioro)

Also I live in Utah, so essential oils are a huge thing, and that's the first thing I thought of. Was it supposed to be a bottle of acid or something?

She thought Hino was sniffing glue. Stereotypical delinquent thing.

Just be done with the preliminaries and start making out already, geez.

I want HatoxChief...
... but you're probably going to get your wish. This is a Morishima manga, after all, and there's that thing about her: she likes stories about couples of girls falling in love, breaking up, then reuniting years later when they realize they still love each other. Their affairs with other partners, in the meanwhile, work just as stepping stones in the way to their happy end together. So, yeah... sigh... everything is pointing towards ChisaxChief. :/

I think the reason Seo got attached to Kyouko might be because she was literally the first person to accept her, to not ridicule her looks, to show her kindness instead of scathing remarks. I find it interesting that what finally drove Seo over the edge was not the "cheating" aspect, but her insecurity over whether Kyouko was faking pleasure with her. Notice how we never see Kyouko pleasuring Seo, it is always the other way around. Just look at Seo's facial expressions, how she obviously relishes in bringing pleasure to the other girl, how confident and proud of herself she looks. And then, that is exactly the aspect of their "relationship" she started doubting, in the end she was convinced Kyouko was "faking it", and that was what drove her into despair. Note that she sleeps with Kyouko after hearing the rumours, and the only thing that is on her mind during the sex is "is she faking it", not "my girlfriend is cheating on me".

Irony is that I think Kyouko is the only one who got hurt in the end. I genuinely think Seo was not actually in love with the other woman, she just got high on the power of bringing pleasure to another person, after her previous partners plainly told her she brought none to them. The moment she started thinking Kyouko was faking it, she proceeded to abandon ship as fast as she could. Kyouko's obvious sadness at the end, on the other hand, is a pretty good indicator she realised this meant something to her.

On a side note, Seo in general seems to have... gotten a really bad message out of all this. Here she seems to conclude that a girl will always respond with enthusiasm, even when faking it, so that is what she probably thinks under "the role of a woman", backed up by this scene, where I can not help but think she kept "moaning cutely" because he was asking her does it feel good. Given the previous scene with Seo asking Kyouko did she like it, Kyouko enthusiastically giving an affirmative answer, and Seo then dismissing it as faking, I think this scene mirrors that one, with Seo basically resigning herself to "fuck it, it is all fake" kind of thinking.

Or maybe I am reading too much into it.

That was a pretty good analysis.
I guess, given the nature of her insecurities, Seo was doomed to end up with a guy. That's the thing about men: they cannot fake their orgasms, lol.

This manga needs to go the Is My Hobby Weird? way.

Nikaidou is an awesome girlfriend AAA

Well hey, she's a superwoman, what did you expect?

Kaosu-chaaaaaan... ♡ ♡ ♡

Dear friends of Kirara Scantasia: please drop everything else and focus on this one manga. Pretty please???

legit thought Nikaidou was going to turn around and be all "the only trash I see here is you" but this was so much better

Tbh, the moment Bully-chan started talking about trash, I expected the same as you. It seemed to me like a most natural development... but I guess it would have been a tad too easy, lol. This manga is more subtle than that.

same, this manga is gold

You are SO right. <3

I know I will probably catch flak for this, but if you genetically modify women, so they can impregnate each other, wouldn't they technically be hermaphrodites, and not females. Does this story even count as a yuri?

I'm thinking it's something more along the lines of assisted, medically-controlled reproduction; artificially making a human egg (as in the first stage of a human after conception) by putting the mothers' genes together.

Huhuhu, it's the method Sakurako from "A Room For Two" plans to use. Remember:

Kasumi buys the wrong charm... maybe?
Sakurako is actually a-ok with it!

(And to think some people pretend that Kasumi/Sakurako is not really a thing... lol.)

I hope their relationship wasn't the same as the girlfriend's last one. The OL said her girlfriend was being abused not neglected.

That line about a "cold home" makes me think it was both. :/

Haha. That's a good joke.

I think they used it in Empowered, too, in a chapter where the lead character urges her main love interest to come clean: should they seriously start going out, or not? Because, you see, they had been sleeping together & having sex like crazed rabbits for weeks... but the exact nature of their relationship had yet to be determined!!!

Her lover's answer:

"Hell yeah, I want to go out with you. And when we are not going out, I want to stay in with you! That part rocks!"

Baby lesbians ftw.

If you read the dialogues carefully, you'll notice she never told her lover that she was working so hard for her.

Her inner monologue was all like "I have to make more money for her, I have to get a promotion to give her a better life!" but, when speaking to her, she was all like "Work is so fun, work is the best, I'm all fired up for work, woo!"

It's no surprise that, in the end, the other girl decided that lesbian love is overrated -- because this relationship they had was just "Her Old Marriage Version 2.0" -- and walked away.

Don't know if this is just a translation issue, but the writing appears to go out of its way to avoid stating the gender of Marika's significant other. Hmm...

Heh heh heh. Keeping it ambiguous, eh? Brace for the big reveal in the future.

As a matter of fact, we know preciously little about Marika's past. It's really unusual in a manga. I mean, normally, an author wants us to know all about her heroine, especially the important details, asap -- so as to better identify with her. In this manga, it's the other way around.

This makes me think there must be hidden skeletons in Marika's closet...

But it's the dad who set this one up.

Yeah... and now that we know who "Sousuke" is, it makes sense.

The author really trolled us. I was absolutely sure some guy was going to come for Neeko... someone who was manly, assertive, good-looking, with a great job, and, generally speaking, the perfect hubby candidate. Then Neeko would have to fight an uphill battle to reject him!

Actually, I'm glad it didn't turn out like that. Whew!

Saaya: best oneechan ever. Fuuka: best loli imouto ever. This needs to be serialized. We demand a series! The world needs more, more, MORE of Saaya/Fuuka!

And please make it 20% ecchi-er, ok? :P

Your wish has been granted, only a few years in future time.

This is actually a horror story. Psychological horror. Should be tagged as such.

I don't know if Ink keeps killing herself, or the older girl keeps killing her, or both (some of the death scenes look like suicide, and some look like murder) -- but, whatever the case, it's a really scary story.

The one with the rabbit girl is so sweet!

I'm not sure what's written on those posters on the wall, but one of them clearly has a picture of Pink Rabbit-chan and a warning: "Dont feed carrots!" Which is exactly what the other girl is doing, lol.

Another poster is a sort of ranking. Both the brown-haired girl (with a top score and a crown) and Pink Rabbit-chan (with a failing mark) are there. Dunno what the ranking is for, tho.

what kind of magical, boob-vanishing, logic-erasing, reality-warping tracksuit is Kazuki wearing? O.O

We have been wondering about that since chapter one... how did she hide her massive jugs under that tracksuit (while wearing a cute light bra, not a sports bra or chest wrappings or anything) is an unfathomable mystery...

The new thing we find in this chapter is that Hime, despite her newfound liking of boobs, still turns her head to look at the boy hotties when she's walking on the street with Kazuki. This could lead to trouble if Kazuki starts asking herself questions...

It's titled 1 x ½. I think it's fairly clear how it'll end.

Heh, yeah. Mother/daughter incest ftw!

This is my number one manga along with Ayame 14. I'm happy when there are new releases of any series I follow, but I'm never happier than when it's one of those two. And yet... why another cliffhanger!? >_< Argh!

Oh well, at least we now know the reason Asuka broke up with Miyuki. I wonder, did that hickey come from a boy or a girl? My money's on the former. I get this vibe from Miyuki that she's the kind who fools around with cute younger girls but eventually gets hitched to an alpha man with prestige, power and moolah.

Kusanagi-sensei is being tested - to see if she can handle a fivesome. And she is getting straight "S" (shu) at a top school. The sequel will be Kusanagi-sensei's 5 bliss-filled wives.

Err... my numbers don't add up. >_< Five wives? Five different girls? Who are we talking about?

It's cute and all, and from what I know of it a pretty accurate take on the "language barrier" between dogs and cats, but also gives me that uncomfortable old NekoPara vibe.

I get what you mean. Though, curiously enough, most people I know were more annoyed by Shigure's incestuous thirst than by the servant catgirls...

But when [...] a story requires you to actively ignore implied slavery in order to not be uneasy with its premises I think an important mark or two was missed somewhere along the way... : /

The azis in C. J. Cherryh's Cyteen universe come to mind...

Was Nozomi always supposed to be so utterly oblivious about homosexuality?

Always had the impression her baseline character setting was "Clueless About ALL The Things"... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Lol, I bet that, next chapter, she's going to ask Asama about this.

"Hey, hey, Asama-san, guess what? Manager is dating another woman!
It's true, I swear! I saw them kiss and stuff!
And they're serious about it! Manager says they're already living together!
I was so surprised! I didn't know two girls could fall in love like that!
I mean, no girl has ever felt attracted to me, haha!
What about you, Asama-san? Did you know about this amazing stuff?
Have you ever felt attracted to another woman?
Ohmygosh, listen to me, haha, what am I saying? Of course you've never felt anything like that, right, Asama-san?"

Then Asama will finally lose her legendary cool and jump Nozomi's bones in a fit of frenzy.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡ -)～☆

This is a doujin that needs to happen.
