I'd say Fumi should fix this, but honestly she can only do so much here. At least she's being a good friend and trying to keep Nagi company.

Wait so she’s killing these guys and getting away with it, how? Are her parents rich AF or smthn? How are these dudes not showing up on the news??

Anywaysss I hope she’s not gonna b fooling with other ppl while she’s dating Mai, cuz damn that’d be crazy

AND I bet Mai would b fine with it too, cuz she has no qualms with smooching a succubus who killed 3 guys

It's established in the story that draining life force doesn't kill people, it just leaves them feeling under the weather

Oh… damn, Im illiterate cuz I fr missed that

yayoi said they took time off, rather than saying they didn't show up for work, so presumably they called in to say they couldn't come in, which is hard to do when you're dead

I lack reading comprehension, my b
I rescind my statement about the succubus being a murderer, however

I hope she’s not gonna b fooling with other ppl while she’s dating Mai, cuz damn that’d be crazy

I 100% stand by this, cuz with the succubus prolly seeing her as a snack, it seems like she’ll continue sleeping with men… which would be crazzzzy

This is the way I see it
Sucking lifeforce - business
Sucking girl spit - pleasure
Nothing personal mate I just need to suck your lifeforce so that I can spend the rest of the night sucking my girlfriend
One must relax after a whole night of life sucking by sucking some pussy

She explicitly says she enjoys the life force of men who are into her, especially greedy ones. However, I'm getting the impression she's less attracted to them and more it's her favorite food. Sexuality is going to be hard to define for an entity that gets multiple biological drives fulfilled from sex; Lily seems to enjoy heterosexual sex, but she has apparently never fallen in love with a man. Can we classify her as bisexual if she just thinks of heterosexual sex as "oh yum, this is a pleasurable way to acquire nutrition"?

But it will be interesting to see what might be done with the most distinctive feature of "The Green Yuri"--I have never thought the story would benefit from either full-color or standard B&W. And the trademark treatment of oblique framing and the dense layering of dialogue and figurative elements in the panels have kept me coming back and re-reading this one over and over (it's not uncommon for me to re-read favorite yuri manga, but not often just to look closely at the details of the panels). I like that the pictures don't move in this one, because that means I can spend as much time with them as I want.

Maybe they'll just do it like the Sin City movie, and do it in black and white and green.

I'd honestly not thought either of them had entirely parsed they were into girls enough for Sakura to coherently identify that her feelings towards Takamine could be romantic like that.

Omg the last time I looked at this series it was tagged with Subtext and now it's actually tagged Yuri and Romance? Did these two finally tie the knot?

I mean, sorta. They still live in a nation which doesn't sanction gay marriage, but they're more or less official. Kasumi has at least quietly sorted out her feelings about Sakurako, and Sakurako hasn't exactly been subtle about how she feels.

The idea of using a guitar pick as suggested above sounds like such a bad idea that I am experiencing phantom pains in organs I don't even have.

It was already going to be a fantastic day to see a Zhuotian upload but the ring panel has truly watered my crops for the next thousand years

Uh, please don't water your crops for a thousand years all at once, that is how you drown your plants. Unless you're growing like, rice or something...

honestly, not just Citrus, I think yuri tends to suffer the Shonen Jump syndrome, some mangas get prolonged past their prime and the story gets, boring, insipid, etc.

That's a bold statement when majority of yuri last 3 volumes or less. The ones that get to double digits are the exceptions, not the norm.

I feel like this is somewhat true with romance narratives in general though, unless the story is written very well and continues past the will they/won't they phase.

Nagi is actually the gal who is kind to otaku. And true to form she may indeed be into one of the otaku she's kind to.

Or extremely protective, if you're a subtext believer.

How come this series is not tagged with Slice of life, School life, or Romance

Like it should be at least one of these things

because if you read the author's previous works, this is likely to end an ambiguous note leaving the reader to speculate endlessly if there's romance or not.

the relationship between these two still seems platonic to me. only difference is that Takamine is opening up a little more, which is probably what Sakura wanted all along, nothing more nothing less.

I definitely fall in the other camp; I read this chapter (30) as they both had kind of had an "aha!" moment and realized they liked each other. Furthermore, that look at the end I read as "despite being interrupted they both have a reasonable suspicion what was about to happen". But I definitely don't feel like I could prove my interpretation right without a shadow of a doubt.

Do cacti even want that much fertilizer? I assumed they were like carnivorous plants where you can over fertilize them and they die.

One does not need to have their life destroyed to be traumatized by something.

...and yeah, Hodaka kept the bunny outfit. It's getting used again. Or maybe not; maybe that bunny outfit has too much sentimental value now to risk damaging it.

did a gal kill your parents or something?

When I was just 5, a gal broke into my house, shot my parents, and then cooked my dog in the bathtub, right in front of me. To this day, whenever I see fashionable girls, I experience terrible panic attacks.

blood stained boobs are definitely gonna awaken something in both of them

I think Tantan might already have a kink to that effect considering she licked the blood off sexily.

Yeah, getting married is a formality. They've been arguing like a married couple since the start.

Oh, this looks to not be one of those "I am inexplicably weaker now because GENDER ROLES" stories, since Yuuri just scooped up Kyouko like it was nothing. Neat, I always hate it when the muscle mass differences between men and women get exaggerated.

this needs the idiot couple tag, they are both so fucking dumb and its so clear the hypnosis thing isnt really whats driving how much of a psycho she is.

I'm not convinced the whole servant thing actually does anything mentally at all, it might just make their bodies obey commands.

A wise woman once said: Tsundere is a character flaw that stands between a character and her happiness.

When written as anything other than a character quirk with no depth to it, it's not a way that a well-adjusted, emotionally healthy person behaves. Ideally, as the tsundere grows more comfortable in their own skin, and understands their emotions, they'll grow out of it and learn to communicate.

Alternatively, the inversion of "I'm the protagonist of. harem manga but I'm gay so every day is hell for me."
"I'm the protagonist of a yuri fanservice manga but I'm straight so every day is hell for me."

Okay I wasn't expecting that punchline. Weird that Rei didn't detect the blood, but it was funny so it's okay.
