People here are giving Tsuruta too much credit, guy is just horny and wants to fuck the hottest babe in school. He acts nice and caring to her because he wants her to give him a chance, Rika even says his personality does a 180 when it comes to Miwa so who knows how nice and caring he normally is. Also thats exactly how and why Saeko got together with Miwa so I dont understand why it would somehow be better with Tsuruta, we cant know he would be the perfect boyfriend because relationship problems happen after the relationship starts afterall.

Anyway, about Tsurutas flirting, usually thats how it goes and there's nothing wrong with it but... 1. Miwa is already dating(and he knows this) 2. Miwa is a lesbian(and he knows this). So yeah, he needs to get over this crush lol.

It's interesting how some readers have an entirely different view on this than me. Where I see them overcome the troubles and grow closer again and again, even if everything isn't perfect yet, and consider the new troubles a chance to solve another problem, they only see impending doom. I've decided to name this the Bakarina Syndrome - due to remembering the original one-shot, people are so focused on the doom flags that they completely fail to see all the more positive developments this series has had.

Thank god some people are reading this similarly to me. Even if we are getting the same ending as the oneshot, the relationship they have in the serialization is completely different.

In these past few chapters we've seen that they do care and are serious about each other: Both of them seemed self-consciously worried about souring their relationship, Miwa with her gloomyness/passiviness and Saeko with her jealousy. Also in chapter 19 Saeko introduced Miwa as a girlfriend to her mom, while Miwa offered to dry Saekos hair after noticing she had been hurt by being made to remember middle school. Furthermore Miwa is showing initiative in not only improving herself so that Saeko doesnt tire of her(ch 15-16), but also in uncovering Saekos past traumas and making sure she stops distancing herself whenever something that bothers her comes up(chapters 17 to 19).

To me this makes it seem that they are in fact emotionally invested in each other, something the one-shot outright denied they were.They arent struggling to fall in love with each other, but with breaking out of their past habits and experiences so that they can keep a healthy relationship(which they both seem like they want to do!). So, regardless of how it ends, this is completely different from the shallow relationship they had in the one-shot where they broke up apathetically without even trying or feeling anything.

Had to update the meter for my boy Kan after these past few chapters

To me this whole manga has a very etherial feel about it, I don't think it would be all that maddening if they didn't stay together in the end. On the other hand, as others have said before, it also has this cutesy and peaceful atmosphere so I think a happy end is more likely.

I was wondering if buying the physical release will be worth, it's seem so.

I see this as the kind of manga you can occasionally pick up, open on a random chapter and have a good time. I would love to have it laying around at home.

What other tropes do we want to see this series face-smash into oblivion?

Usually in yuri when there is a rich girl character like Nikaidou there is aways a ominous patriarchal father who threatens their relationship. I would love for this series to make a super suportive teddy bear like dad instead.

Wahhh my heart stopped when konatsu reached for honami’s hand with the salamander hanging on her back. What a powerful moment beautifully done. Kinda disappointed about the yuri thing though so I guess I’ll try to convince myself I don’t care and continue reading.

There is something about the panelling and the pacing of this one that made me feel like it was a punchline and this whole story was a bit. I actually laughed out loud when she dropped that killer line.

Oh wow! This is so positive, so pure and so blessed. Im aways iffy when I see a gender bender accident story but this one was surprisingly good.

I was trying to figure out why her reaction here looks so familar. Hitomi??

I swear to God, if we get another Prism...

It’s decided, let’s drop the main storyline completely and make this manga about Sui and Christine.

I bet its the waiter/waitress. Anyone else got a guess?

Wow, you actually nailed it. Congratulations I guess?

I bet its the waiter/waitress. Anyone else got a guess?

I bet a group of girls from their class will show up and ask nikaido what she is doing hanging out with tadokoro.

Am I too greedy for wanting the confession to actually happen in the next chapter? It usually gets interrupted or misunderstood after a set up like this, but I feel like this sensei is spoiling us.

Tamamusi is aways giving back to the community, what a goddess.

I really appreciate how mikkun reacted to saeko’s insecurities being projected on him. He could’ve taken offense or something and gone with that cold “Oh,huh,and?” response, but instead he was mature and thoughtful as to perceive that her reaction was a defense mechanism and to guess that she probably had it rough in the past. We need more people acting like that irl.

it's just super friendship guys, the author will pull a man chu eventually....

Ugh... just imagining it hurts me. I think I will physically die if that happens.

One of the things that's really charmed me about this series is how present the parents are.
Like it's just taking an already cute, fluffy story and making it that much sweeter.

I adore yuri stories with loving and accepting friends and family, it really makes me happy for the characters.

Damn you guys are doing one hell of a job, thank you so much!

uhhh, this story was kinda pointless, wasn't it? Are things like this known to actually happen? It just felt to me like it was some weird fantasy that wasn't developed into really anything in this story. I'd understand it if it had actually happened to the author or something.

Since when did a story need a point other than to entertain?

That's not what I meant. It's just that the author brought this ridiculous premise of someone getting saved by porn and didn't really do anything with it. It bothered me. I didn't want to come out so negative, though, I like this author and got confused because I was expecting something better from them. Maybe people who can relate to this fantasy will get more enjoyment

Isn’t Susuki Senpai aways writing comedy stories with a lighthearted approach? They are a solid writer but I wouldn’t expect a fleshed out story or a meaningful work from them.

Is it just me or sakurako being low key gay became a common punchline?(and still no yuri)

This definitely has a place among my top 10 hiatusxhiatus arcs.
We had a good run boys.
