This manga just makes me smile I love it

I checked out the tags on the page for the raws and those are some interesting tags. (This is though Google TL)

Female
Battle/Action
Yuri
Female protagonist
Modern
Friendship/Companions
Adventure

Lapis's face on page 26 just says everything doesn't it? It's also a really good page.

Ok, I can't tell if emperor not finishing what she said on page 3 is on purpose...or because a oopsie with the translation.

I just realizes looking back at the title shot for Chapter 1, Niji is also there. Foreshadowing for her having a fetish as well or not, you make the call!

I think based on how Katsumata followed her into the bathroom and asked if she was ok, (she did notice the cut on her arm from the glass after all) it's likely she was honestly checking on her. After that however I dunno this went straight off the rails.

Apparently, very few otoges have actually featured villainesses in direct competition with white lily heroines -- rather, that trope was something that the Angelique series used and had an outsized impact on the Japanese pop-culture at large.

Sadly that tracks with what I looked up as well. Still the biggest problem with this manga is that the isekai premise is...completely pointless. You could likely remove it and have to change very little to make the plot still work. This manga feels like it's another thing trying to cash in on the trend and adding little to nothing. Also as others have noted: The villainesses of these premises being just tsunderes.

My thoughts on that final page: oh fuck her feet.

For those who don't check up with the raws, seems there is a free to view campaign, up to right before the latest chapter, on Youngchampion right now. (although it seems you need to make a free account) Also the Raws are up to Ch16.

They banged!

I still want a bonus chapter where the past versions of Senpai and Nanasawa timeslip into the future and there is a four-way with their older selves.

We’re so used to seeing Rose in her black bob + glasses look, I just realized that her real self looks like a younger version of the Babylon leader. Probably a coincidence but interesting detail nonetheless.

Refugees seem to tend to be drawn as blond, which makes me wonder about Benika.

Fun fact: If you look at the Vol 4 cover, you can see Rose's hair color. (Benika is on Vol 2's cover, but she's also on the back of Vol 4 as well)

Aw look, it's her first fetish.

I remember reading that this series was retweeted by Hideo Kojima...and YEP that would track.

I just realized in Ch5 when Gran scared Natori, that's the point Diana put Gran on her shit list.

This is multi track drifting with a train while multiple people are attempting to drive it, and I'm all for it. EDIT: Ok I did not meant to be this redundant with the previous post wow.

oof looking at page 34, apparently the butler is part stick figure.

In case anyone didn't notice during Natori's inner dialogue, but those are fox ears, not cat ears.

I think part of the reason this feels so stupid is because we are constantly seeing Hiroko's thoughts on Ayaka every chapter and well...her missing the obvious or misinterpreting Ayaka EVERY chapter without fail.

Ok just marathon'd the first 5 chapters (also the .5 chapters) and MAN the typesetting (and tbh the translation) is not good. So many missing periods or outright not bothering to translate some text. The quality difference between those and Chapter 6 is huge. (Also I like the story and want to read more.)

Just in case people are wondering, pixiv comic and the nicoseiga page for the series currently have the raws for Chapters 5 and 6 is anyone wants to view them ahead of time.

I say the biggest problem with Shiho is simple: White noise. I legit forgot what chapter she first involved herself in the plot, and I thought it was much shorter up to the current point...and I was wrong. I can't remember much of what happened starting when she pushed her way into the plot, and of the latest chapter.

EDIT: For an idea, her first scene in the plot is in Chapter 18. It's Chapter 40 now.

how can you be so useless after literally having sex

From what I can tell, this is the last chapter of Volume 2, and Volume 3 will be the last one.

Those last 5 chapters were. Not good. From both for the writing and art. Man the art suffered hard.

Looking at where the manga was uploaded online, seems that it was mostly a monthly series, until these last 5 chapters. Then it was bi-monthly.
