MC's like on second thought gimme the book, I actually need it more than you do

Nagi: what complicated plan has she hatched?
Manatsu: dweh heh heh

I know we're yuri fanatics so we want them to get together but I'm worried about Tsukino's mental health at this point

"Thanks as always for requesting me"
"It's been a week since I started"

Comoli just dropping by every day huh

It feels weird to me that yurihime is ony 20 years old. Sure there was yuri shimai before but to think that the modern form of the magazine, a juggernaut of the yuri genre, has only existed for 20 years is still really crazy.

To make it extra wild even if we include yuri shimai it's only a couple years older. Yuri as we know it is such a young genre of fiction that it just feels weird to think about.

That's not weird to me because... well because I'm old I guess, I looked into Yuri in my early 20's and was disappointed in what was on offer (which wasn't much to begin with).

Does she actually have sumo and piano classes? I got the impression that she was saying random things as excuses to leave. She claimed to have cram school, English, sumo and piano lessons in one afternoon after all xD

Right after she said her schedule was free, lol.

But my prediction is that she does actually take Sumo classes and this will come up in the future when a pervert is threatening Shouko and she uses her sumo skills to push him off the edge of an embankment wall.

As I mentioned earlier, I think pitching the whole original wall-o-text as primarily an intervention against an amorphous group of “wrong” (Western, aggressively LGBTQ, amateur) critics rather than focusing on the OP’s analytical take on the history of the Class-S genre and its contemporary manifestations, including Dear Flowers, was a rhetorical mistake, which led to a predictable series of pushbacks by commenters and then counterproductive counter-pushback by the OP.

Basically. Like I agree with a lot of their points but opening their essay by framing the 'vulgar realist' as a mostly western chauvinism phenomenon and then writing

I think it should be possible to critique a way of thinking and speaking without making assumptions about a person's character or background or education or nationality, which is something that is all too often done as a way of discrediting arguments.

is just a little bit rich.

I'd pick a fight over it but they're not here anymore, so I guess I'll spare everyone the wall of text.

Cute ending, but feels like it chickened out of its premise.

i feel the same way. the oneshot and subsequent first chapter seemed to be setting up a totally different vibe. like the mangaka wanted to create toxic yuri but didn't have it in them so we just got like, teasing/comfort for 8 chapters.

Guess this turned out to be kind of true lol. I wonder what the dark version the author came up with first ended like

These lesbians, man. Why are they like this?

Abandonment issues
Just like real life!

This story makes me want a gay pen pal

Am I really the only one that thinks the writing in this series is kind of bad? It's just contrived plot devices one after the other; first, the administrator system that was used to progress the characters' relationship, only to now be explained away with this timeline convergence. And I don't even think it would be this bad if they didn't decide to introduce this utterly silly "restorative-capacity" meter (here's a reason not to watch Steins:gate, I guess).

I don't really care that much because I never took this series all that seriously. I just found it surprising that nobody here seems to be sharing my urge to eyeroll in this chapter.

The writing has never been great. I dropped this series when I first started reading it because it seemed like wasted potential and just a vehicle for fluff, but when I picked up it again much later with less expectation and just wanting fluff I was able to enjoy it more.

To be serious for a sec I'm guessing you're supposed to still feel Fuyu is sympathetic on the strength of how much cheaters suck, so her behavior is excusable operating under the misapprehension that Itsuki cheated on her, which Itsuki is herself responsible for, but like nah dawg it's not workin for me.

The hostility has escalated so much that at this point the best ending would be like:

Fuyu: If I can't have you I'm going to ruin you
Itsuki: You could have had me until you tried to ruin me
Fuyu: wait what? (gets sucked into black hole)

Guessing the author has other ideas though

So uhh the princess was just horny?....

She was horny with a good excuse, they clearly needed more mana transfer, though that doesn't seem to have factored into her thought process :p

I thought this was a Liberta chapter when I clicked on it. I stopped reading this chapters back, still terrible lol

Guessing the big twist will be that the kid is actually Itsuki's. She got Fuyu pregnant right before she left for China, and then when she got there, faced with the social stigma of being an unwed mother, had to rush a marriage to a man to cover it up. Now she's back and wants to be with Itsuki but doesn't know how to get out of the situation she's in.

Please let this be the case!

Dynasty gonna have to add a new tag
babies conceived through pure dramatic potential

Or maybe it was unprotected hand-holding?

A bold reading, but there is strong textual evidence for it

Series looking great can't wait for more

Having an unrequited love for someone you've been dating for ten years is so bonkers, I just assumed she was talking about someone else she knew before getting with her GF, someone from when she was in high school herself, until I read the comments here

Anyway guessing Oda is in love with Nakanishi who is in love with MC, and she'll break up with her GF and get with the student.

Oh my god the lore

Is it gay to feed your wife the dried corpse of a dimensional guardian you killed so that you could be with her forever

Now I want some udon

This is the closest a yuri character has ever come to my height (I am 178, 1 cm difference!)
Nice
Someday I should draw some autobiographical comics about the height gap with my short ex

Kiss > Sword. Can't wait for something lewder like... holding hands.

WIN BY THE POWER OF SMOOCHING

I don't think I've ever enjoyed an "I can fix her" story as much as this one lol
