Jeez man, three hours of walking!? Ruka just should have bought Sakura's ticket for her, and told Sakura that paying for her ticket would be worth less than the time it would take to walk her home.

This chapter got me thinking about Meatloaf for some reason
I want you
I want you (chorus)
I need you
I need you (chorus)
But there ain't no way I'm ever going to love you
Now don't feel sad
Now don't feel sad cause (chorus)
Cause two out of three ain't bad
Now don't feel sad
Now don't feel sad cause (chorus)
Cause two out of three ain't bad

Wait don't leave us hanging here. Does Yuzu get her reward or not?

Flower girl is into flowers, and is also a track star. I wonder if she is Yamada and Kase's daughter. lol

Wow Mei-chan is a lesbian stud. At this point it's almost at a supernatural level.

Also is still it okay to use the word "stud" these days?

Were those girls trying to help the person in the bear costume up, or were they just abusing them?

^^ Would you rather people just draw sexualized images of the child characters as is???

I did a little fist pump at the NIN mention and immediately deflated that the kid wasn't allowed to watch... Closer? I guess that one would come up on autoplay or as recommended. And I don't think any of the others could be that objectionable? Aside from the whole Broken film. But it's not like that one is fun to watch casually anyway.

And honestly? Given how Joe and Kanna worked things out, I cannot believe Mitsuki gave him that response. While "everything" may be a broad spectrum, there are still better ways to phrase it.

Closer is one of the dirtiest songs ive heard on the radio. The F-word was obviously edited out but the meaning was still crystal clear.

It would have been fine if Seira kicked Daiki to the curb, I mean respectfully broke things off with Daiki. However leaving the poor dude dangling while she creeps behind is back is just mean. Also the fact Mio was the one to suggest it, makes me feel like she is just wants a warm body to comfort her until she fines another guy.

I must have missed something, because the ending felt creepy to me, rather than funny.

We know of a cluster of sensations and emotions that are alleviated when trans people transition, which is commonly summarized as gender dysphoria, and gender euphoria, a related "opposite" cluster that is brought about by transition. And the evidence is at this point overwhelming, that no incentive or benefit (financial, romantic, etc.) can compare to these. Which contradicts you saying that, as a cis man, having to live as a woman would be a mere inconvenience for you that you'd just power through for the right reward.

What we actually know is that some people feel dysphoria, and euphoria on transition. That does not mean that every non-trans person would feel dysphoria if they magically transitioned. Genderfluidity exists, and what some dub "gendercasual".

Quite a bunch of people think that they wouldn't care much if they woke up as the opposite sex, without feeling any urge to actually explore it in reality. Whether they're correct or not is untestable, since we can't do scenarios like the manga's.

Gender casual. I like the sound of that.

I know I argued to take that monster out, but that left me feeling a little sad.

It's like putting down a rabid dog. A necessary action for public safety... But it's still sad, because it's a dead dog.

That's part of it. However it was also because the monster trusted that Itou really just wanted to have a friendly chat. It even mused about it's likes a bit. It was like the poor bastard thought they would become friends or something. Combined with the fact that the damned thing didnt leave their friends' body, as it died, made it feel a little bit like a betrayal.

I wonder if it's going to end up with something like Kyouko falling in love with Yuuri, because he's a boy in a girl's body. It's a perfect solution for a hetosexual girl with a severe case of androphobia.
I think that might piss a lot of people off, but not me. I'm actually intrigued by the idea. I would like to see more manga play around with biological sex and gender identity. Characters like Yamato from One Piece fascinate me.

Are you really sure about that?

Alright then, let's make a bet. If it turns out to be yuri, I win. If it turns out to be heterosexual, you win.

It'll be interesting to see which one of us ends up being right, hehe.

I'm not sure you understand what I'm saying. It's simple Kyouko falls in love with yuuri, because he is a guy in a non-guy package. Yuuri remains in a girl's body, to not frighten Kyouko. Yuuri and Kyouko will live happy ever after. It is totally a yuri ending. Well from a certain point of veiw.

Nah, there are a lot of things you're wrong about, but I'm not going to argue with you over them. I could easily prove my point, but it's more fun to turn it into a bet instead, hehe.

Okay how wrong can I be? I can only see three likely endings

  1. Yuuri uses his girl form to cure Kyouko of her androphobia then turns back into a boy. Kyouko falls in love with him. Hetero happy ending.

  2. Yuuri starts to identify as a girl. Kyouko falls in love with her. A happy yuri ending.

  3. Yuuri stays a girl but never stops identifying as a boy. Kyouko falls in love with them. Happy yuri ending, from a certain point of view.

Now I know there can be tons of other endings. Like Yuuri starts identifying as a girl. Becomes best gal pals with Kyouko, and then falls in love when she discovers boys. But it's almost certainly one of the three. You want to bet them my money is spread evenly between possibility 2 and 3, based on the things I read in the comments.

As much as I and I assume many other readers would love to see it, a scene where Yuuri just turns to the camera and says "I am transgender and want to be a girl." is never going to happen in a somewhat light-hearted manga like this, but the same goes for option 3. Much like with many of the other gender bender manga out there, the mc's gender is probably just going to be left vague and up to the reader's interpretation. Automatically flocking to the interpretation that it's "het in a non-het package" because of it is insulting to the original work and other interpretations. This might just be my opinion as a trans woman, but no living cis guy would ever choose to remain in a wrong-gendered body just for a crush. If Yuuri does ultimately choose to stay as a girl, a queer reading is unavoidable.

I agree that Yuuri's gender identity will probably be left vague. I kind of placed that possibility under ending number 2, because that's how I would interprate it.
Although Yuuri is bringing his gender identity to the forefront by having guilt over lying to Kyouko about being a girl, even though he is in a girl's body. It shows he still idinifies as a boy.I kind of want Kyouko to start to push Yuuri into identifying as a girl so she can remain friends with him
I think your wrong about no cis man would give up identifying as a man, for a woman. I'm a cis man, but I have no loyalty to my gender. The way I feel is I'm a man only because I was born male, if I magically woke up in a female body tomorrow I would just try to learn to be a woman. I'm sure it would suck for a while but I think I would eventually get use to it And if a woman I loved was rooting for me to be a woman. I think it might end up being an incentive to push me along.

You should lose you job on the discipline committee for letting that stupid gyaru get away with dressing like that!

No wait! I can explain! It's becase she's hot, and she lets me touch her!

EDIT: No thats wrong. Rei is a bottom.I should have said, No wait! I can explain! It's because she's hot, and she's willing to touch me!
