She does so much for her beloved

Erika and Komichi's setup points towards a romantic arc. However, I'd like to point out that Akebi's Sailor Uniform isn't in the yuri genre. It's a slice of life about girls. If this manga was in the yuri genre, with a romantic structure explicit from the get go, no one would wonder if Erika or Komichi are going to end up together. However, it's a slice of life about girls, a genre that is egregiously known for yuri baiting and girls saying "I love you" and "I want to be with you forever" and "you're the most important person to me" without ever stepping into firm romantic territory. We're in a genre that depicts intimate friendship between girls that never goes beyond that and working with the genre expectations.

Also, I'm hesitant to boldly claim an ending for a series that hasn't ended. There's never an assured ending, and the author might surprise us all. Still, I'm hopeful that Akebi's Sailor Uniform depicts Komichi and Erika falling in love. I'm not caught up on the recent chs, but the manga has already touched on sapphic love between the volleyball girl and the other gal. It also has Akebi explicitly set on a quest to discover romantic love for another person (ERIKA) for the sake of a romantic play inspired by her and ERIKA, so that she and ERIKA can remain together FOREVER.

The way the author writes is so sporadic. Plot elements just occur suddenly. I love that about this manga, but also it makes me hesitate to make any strong predictions, especially since the surprises have delighted me so far. I am hopeful but where else do you see sapphic love except in the genre specifically designed for sapphic love? NOWHERE. Sapphic love in a non-yuri work just doesn't exist often. I'm seeing the beginning of a careful, well thought out, well plotted slowburn love story between two girls that are the main characters to a slice of life story, in a non-love story. I am going crazy with excitement. I will be overjoyed. I will be killed. They have me by the throat.

It's clear by the author's writing style that whatever happens will be atypical, but touching and authentic.

Just imagine: Champion Cynthia wipes you effortlessly and then you don't even mind cause she thinks you're super cute and you're totally being hit on and you're sorta mad cause you lost and all your pokemon is currently unconscious but also she's bending down to give you a kiss on the cheek and saying "Good try, better luck next time."

I feel like if you reread the series with this the new information and insight into her mind, you wouldn't actually find anything new.

Yuzu made the meme Arthur fist a couple times so it was always obvious she wasn't entirely oblivious.

I remember reading a few posts talking about it how the Arthur fist memes don’t mean anything cause they could’ve been because she didn’t want to go to the beach super bad. And the writing had so little points backing up any potentially Yuzu motives and perspectives I honestly couldn’t deny that she was just so mad she had to go to the beach she made an Arthur fist.

Fuckin finally we get to see Yuzu’s side. What a treat. Now just give us 5 ch of this shit it’s so cute seeing the way she dies over physical closeness. I don’t even needs story progression anymore teehee. Not like we’ve had any since ch 2.

As an artist who figure draws this feels so sacrilegious but I'm ready to ignore that to embrace the smexy.

Oh I can kinda get the appeal of this series now that I've registered the manipulation as like, a two-sided thing. Ami (blondie) needs Rei the same way Rei needs Ami, they just don't know yet. Ami needs Rei in order to manipulate her. If Rei ever backs out, you know Ami's gonna be actually sad/crushed cause Ami seems to genuinely have Rei in mind and genuinely enjoys manipulating the girl for emotional satisfaction.

Now that things are slightly equalized, I feel like I'm strapped to enjoy a fun twisted dynamic.

Waiting for "How about you Rei? Do you like me?" -> "No." The blessed drama!
