All the talk of cheating, miscommunication, etc and I’m just thinking how she has a smart phone and could’ve pulled up any one of the millions of pictures out there to give examples. Like, literally no reason to give a full frontal preview.

Karin pushing the harem members to be honest about their feelings thus making this harem the least useless in history. Now the real game begins. Still hoping to see some of the harem members interacting so it shifts to poly.

Love their NSFW artwork, its always so good!

Promotional video posted by Hiro for volume 14. Features the JP VAs for Komichi and Erika from the anime reading their letters to each other.

For those interested, Hiro has an art exhibition going on right now. You can see some of the artworks (Akebi-Chan stuff included) here: https://x.com/akebi_chan_ex/status/1845404110104698984
There’s also some goods that can be purchased, not sure if international shipping is supported.

They are so cute!

One thing I like about this series is the author's palpable joy (probably derived from their experience in animation) in depicting bodies in motion, almost to the extent that scenes become drawing display pieces but mostly working as character beats.

For the purposes of the plot Erika didn't have to tip all the away over in her chair this time, and the Akebi family didn't absolutely need to spend several pages racing around while Komichi showed off her anti-grav powers. But I'm glad they did.

There's definitely an element of flexing to Hiro's style. I feel a lot of the time he's drawing these amazing pannels just because he can.

And it translates back to animation so well. I really hope we get a season 2 once the current arc is complete. We NEED the Tokyo and Stage Play arcs animated.

Nanatsu Fuji is so good

Even if you are both girls, you shouldn't be having sex

So wait, both of them being girls makes it somewhat better, but not better enough to make it totally okay? Is that the implication here?

She was responding to one of the girls saying "we're both girls, so there's nothing to worry about".

Very cute, but shouldn't it have the subtext tag? There's nothing really explicitly romantic here.

Seemed pretty explicitly romantic to me. None of these interactions scream, “I like her platonically”.

Well I had a conversation(?) with the author on Twitter and she basically told me why this scene between Karin and Riri happened. It's all good now lmao.

I would post it here if I knew how to make spoilers.

Or don’t? We don’t need the additional commentary when we can just wait for the next chapter. Personally, I want more of Karin and Riri. Karin’s great, she’s honest and open with her feelings and actions. And I think she could help Riri be more open and honest about her own feelings.

It would be pretty difficult, since I don't think the sex should be cut out.

Valkyrie Drive and Gushing Over Magical Girls prove you don't have to cut out the sex... not that I understand how either one got made.

With Valkyrie Drive it's in part a somewhat older anime, made as I think one of the last anime by Arms, the studio that made Queen's Blade. Which Queen's Blade and that studio were a different era of fan-service in general.

I think part of MahoAko's lower budget might have been due to the sexual nature of the series, but it's still surprising it was even made.

Regardless I think this manga is still more sexual than any of those, as sex is a core focus of the work.

I don't undersrand why hentai studios don't pick top-tier manga like this one, but then again they all just produce the cheapest hentai for male audience for quick bucks.

Maybe if it was the length of Shoujo Sect, but anything this length would warrant a full anime season and I think it would be tough for an h-yuri manga to get that kind of funding. And while MahoAko is sexual in nature, there is a running "plot" other than sex.

And as someone else mentioned, h-anime studios are really hit or miss on quality.

Honestly, this is a great solution. Unless you’re in the same major, more than likely you wouldn’t be in the same classes anyways. So meeting after class and spending time together that way would be the norm. Also, I’m glad the author is keeping the series going!

Karin and Riri! Honestly, I'm glad we're getting some off-mc interactions.

This manga is killing me....and I just wanted to see that teachers butt once more....

What's this about? Care to refresh my memory?

Probably this, this, this, this, and this.

Idk, I just find all the negative reactions to be way overblown. Its really not that bad of a story. A bit rushed for sure, but I'm wondering how many episodes Rangrari was allotted by Riri. And most of the "criticisms" I've seen have boiled down to "I wanted a happy ending, so I think its bad".

Takeda Ayano anime adaptation

Author of Hibike Euphonium

I know I have plenty of company in the many yuri fans who were traumatized by the Euphonium yuri bait. Couldn't continue that series after a male background character came out of basically nowhere to pair with the MC.

I'll have to 100% know whether there'll be yuri or not with this new anime before I can consider watching this one. "Fool me once, shame on me..." and all that.

Can't blame the author for the Euphonium anime bait. That's entirely on KyoAni.

Blessed Nanatsu Fuji art! This is what I'm imagining is happening in all of Throtem and Chowbie's maid artworks.

You can really understand why this family is so close and care so deeply for each other.

Komichi spilling her soul in her letter to Erika. Can't wait to see how all of this develops!

Time to go spend time with Maria! Maybe Karin and Riri will get to spend some time together.

TBH both the girl and her fiance dodged a bullet. Anyone who proposes to their partner after going out for one (1) week is not ready for marriage, and neither is anyone who accepts such a proposal.

He didn't propose...they just started dating. Basically, the guy told the girl that he liked her and they decided to try dating.

Yes, Sal Jiang tagged it NTR on pixiv, which is why we asked for the tag when uploading. Also, it’s an older piece from 2019, so I wouldn’t expect any kind of follow-up at this point.

While A'xiu's words may have been tough to hear, its something Ningwei needed to hear and she needs to really think about what she's going to do.
