"Why didn't Tsubaki react very strongly?" She had already assumed the husband was abusive ever since she saw Yuki show up to a café alone on her birthday. This was not a surprise in her mind. She is written to be a bit of a wacko, which is most of the driving force of the story.

If you were told by someone that they have been locked in their home by their abuser, wouldn't you have some kind of reaction? Even if you know they're being abused, it's still shocking.

Really cute.

Their appeal is proven by that we've got an unusually long running yuri manga despite it being from flowerchild.

Leave my queen alone.

It’s different because passive suicidal ideation it’s when you want to kill yourselve but have 0 intention of acting those thoughts. What I mean was people that live their life because they are here, but if they were to die, that it’s how life is. Something like that, I think that it’s what he mean.

That's depression, my dude.

Igarashi-sensei, how does it feel to write fire every time? This needs to be talked about in every yuri circle.

Keikaku doori.

The manga in a nutshell.

It does feel like a lot of set up for no payoff. The previous chapter took the abuse so seriously that the resolution being so clean feels like brushing it under the rag. Like, does the mangaka want to dive into the subject or not? They should make up their mind.

The character ages make me think the manga will continue through collage.

Transphobic Kyouko.

So is the implication that Ruka's mom was also a yakuza?

Lesbians love fail women.

Qualia the Purple fanart???

I'm so glad to see it got updated.

I think an alternative reading is that she's a criticism of yuri, which as a genre, often casts aside the improvisation of negotiating a relationship dynamic in favor of reproducing more static heterosexual relationship dynamics. I'd even point out that while Aoyama is performing oral on the "female" part of the flower, it is a very phallic depiction. It's not hard to see Yurika being cast in the role of a classic patriarchal villain—a fixation on youth, chasing pleasure, emphasizing difference in social position when the wife/mistress speaks up. In that light, "It's tradition." works more as a direct call-out on the abuse enabled by "traditional" relationships.

I very much disagree with this reading. Yuri relationships are ones in which both parties are allowed to be in a romantic relationship that doesn't adhere to heterosexual roles. A lot of yuri manga have moments of the characters reflecting on this: "we couldn't do this if we weren't both girls", or "I wouldn't be able to talk about that with a boyfriend". It's very much about how same sex relationships are free from those strict relationships expectations. And I don't see the flower as being phallic in the slightest. This is a story about a girl abusing another girl, how even a supposedly "pure" and innocent relationship as Class S can be twisted and used by an abuser to groom their victim. If anything it's a clear warning that abuse doesn't have to be patriarchal and women can be predators too.

To be fair, the Templeborn chapters aren't relevant to the overarching plot. It was mostly Miyazawa having fun with an action side-plot. And this chapter was so good I can easily forgive not covering it in the manga.

Of course, if you are interested in the missing arc, you can read the novel which has an official English release and is easily available on J-novel Club and various digital stores. hint hint

Crazy to call that subtext.

^ Considering Ave Mujica, they're not trying to, lol.

Man, I love it when scanlation stops when a series gets licensed so I can wait years to read from when it stopped in a worse translation.

Yes!!

So.. the other robots aren't sentient, right?

As an introvert, I also had that "so that's what typical teenage girls are like". Things like girls going to the bathroom together or wearing matching outfits was a mystery for me. Like, do you call each other to plan what to wear the night before? Why?

I disagree, I think their dynamic is very interesting because it's not typical.

Honestly, I like them more than the main couple.
