Art is beautiful, but I'm connecting less and less with Sumiko's storytelling. The 4 page format is dofficult and fit pre time skip so well, but now it's just frustrating to me with the whole "serious drama chapter" that makes you abxious on how they're going to fox or tackle the issue to the "slice of life with fluff and hope and shows they still care for each other" I know they do, I just want to see them communicate or more development.

I know this was talked enough and don't wanna bring discourse or fight with anyone, I'm not saying this is a good or a bad way to write, just wanted to ket out some frustrations with a series I've been following since day 1. I'm just more attuned to HDWR and other series that had different pacing.

I agree w everyone else tbh. Still read it bc art is pretty. Sumiko seems to try drama but a goos drama is something like HDWR. Tamifull the goat.

This is the straightest gay romance I've ever read, damn.

This is kinda weird ngl. Without explanation this sounds very bigoted. Not saying you are, but it sounds weird.
Also, maybe Aya said it and since Mitsuki did not start communicating Aya realized tonight would not be the night that they would talk.

ch 9 out of 118? Oh no, is this going to some high-drama slow burn, like "How do we relationship?"

If it's gonna be like HDRW it means it's gonna be PEAK ABSOLUTE CINEMA

I'll just say it, Riri, although not the one with least relatioship development with Soraike(Kaoru was that one, sadly) is probably the most boring one of all the potential lovers. The series has fallen off for me for a while. I either wanted Maria or all of them.

Did it? Like I said before, even though they didn't actually bang, the activities that Mei and Maria got up to that night already crossed a massive line as far as Maria's whole thing of trying to wait and remain professional until Mei graduates.

Wasn't that because Mei brought up that it was unfair that Maria was rejecting her now after leading her on that they were gonna bang or be official? So Maria allowed for 1 night/day of breaking that rule to make up for it. It was atoning for a mistake, not because her will was fleaking.
