Disclaimer: i am totally fine with this direction and the so-called "toxic yuri" but damn Misa's lightning-speed "jealousy" toward Io after her speech about protectiveness with Hase over the phone was hilarious, somehow. Actually if Flowechild took a little bit more time to draw out Misa's inner conflict (and maybe adding a little hypocrisy to it) it would have been better imo.

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'll take my bet on this Niji girlie having infantilizing fetish/being into baby play, giving that she's called Niji-mama and kinda shielding Remu's "innocent", or more specifically, "babying" Remu. Or maybe she's just your typical yandere girl. Let's wait and see.

Btw is anyone getting some mommy issue vibes from Remu? Like, she was, um, using clay to "enhance" the doll's boobs based on her mother's? And her parents divorced after that making me feel like there was something going on with Remu's birth mother too. Or am I reading too much into this detail?

To be fair, I did think the pacing had been a little weird since volume 2 but actually hearing from Dorothy that she thought this series was going to be axed soon... Now I understand and feel more relieved. Sure Michi's denial could be going on for a bit too long here but now knowing Dorothy has more confident in this series I'm definitely ok with it too. And judging from what she has been building up until now, I have high hope that she could deliver a good resolution for the series. And now that the spotlight has been passed to Honda... Yep, at least 2 more volumes of ghost yuri for me, I suppose. Yippee

I wonder if balloons (especially red ones) are used as metaphor for death/dead people in Japanese literature 'cuz I've seen some uses of it in other media

We don't know for sure what exactly young Michi is at the moment, but I feel like she's the one that makes Aizawa more powerful. As Neo's comment on Michi/young Michi's power being somewhat reducing recently, if we look back to the shed ghost incident, didn't it show that young Michi was being helplessly against the shed ghost but at the same time, Aizawa gained the ability to possess Kasumi's body?

This is just a wild guess but what if young Michi is the manifestation of Michi's feeling/regret/coping mechanism that causes her to forget about Aizawa's cause of death, but that manifestation desires to save Aizawa/make her stay so much it attract other spirits to feed her more power, even giving Michi's own power to her. I'd say this is a wild guess because there weren't evidences of Aizawa feeding or even interacting with other spirits, but I believe there's still a high chance that Aizawa's power growing has something to do with Michi's power reclining.

Am I reading into it wrong or was it mainly the MC's beauty that got her off the hook with her classmates during the trial lmao

It was her voice that charmed her classmates lol. Truly taken aback by that, but as Kyouko had said in the past that Renna's voice had some effects on other people, maybe it'll be somewhat a major plot point in the future? Imagine her trembling voice telling people to go kill themselves and they actually doing it, that will be so wild lmao.

I think some people are too privileged to acknowledge the hardship that women ALONE in those eras had to face, not to mention queer women. That was literally hell. Heck, even nowadays there are still so many cases in which women don't have any authority in their OWN lives as well. This is still common in Asian countries, the cultures here are much more different from Western cultures, so please don't use your point of view in a modern, more free society to judge people who are oppressed in such long period. Comhet is real.

About Kiyoko and Mitsu here, sure thing that Kiyoko's choice was way too wrong for both of them, but as you can see in the newest chapter Kiyoko had been a more confident woman, there must be something that tired her out to be the indecisive, reluctant woman now. Or maybe her relationship with Mitsu was tiring enough. She did, and i think she still does, love Mitsu, but the prejudice back then was too overwhelming. I really feel sorry for both of them, to live in a society like that.

Wait isn't that drama a parody of Majisuka Gakuen? I mean Chisato's outfit reminds me of Nezumi somehow, and the idol acting thing

Still find it kinda sad that, after all that, Anna still sees Yuuki as a bully and is a bit scared of her. Especially with how obvious Yuuki is being about her crush. Still, they're really cute together.

Also it seems that Yuuki's two henchmen friends have names now! Here's hoping that their romance will go better than Yuuki's.

If i remember it right there are some more strips on the artist's twitter and Anna seems lot more comfortable with Yuuki! And she finally acknowledge Yuuki's feeling i guess lol i wish that i knew Japanese
