Himeno's bed hair kinda looks like antennae to me, it's cute.

Ui's trying! It's not very effective but she's trying! Now let's see if it's enough to change Nagisa's mind...

What a shameless flirt

She's faceless, as was the father, so I doubt she'll show up ever again.

To add to this, Aya has already moved on, she wouldn't want to meet her mother even if she could.

I liked the symbolism with the bell, it's sound was the first thing Koto and Erika noticed when Aya reappeared back in chapter 1. In a way, it was what let them find her, just like grandma intended. Considering she still has it on all the time, does she keep it because it remains something unchanging about her?

Also, just to clarify, does 'watersports' refer to actual water activities, or is it being used metaphorically to describe a sense of excitement and pleasure?

Watersports in this context usually means there's stuff involving urination (page 17 in this case), so I guess "water activities" would be closer.

She's grown so much

How I would love this chapter-end bit to go, but it won't:
Him (cheerfully): "Go on a date with me!"
Her (cheerfully): "No!"

i bet it's gonna be some "act date to convince someone he doesn't have a thing with Ayu" kinda deal

That, or he's such a natural playboy he doesn't really think much about calling outings "dates" and just wants to nerd out about bartending stuff with Naori

But yeah, having your first sexual experience called "disgusting" would be traumatic. Wonder if interacting with another "disgusting" girl will exacerbate this trauma or help her process it?

I'd say them calling each other "disgusting" and bonding over it is kind of the first step of healing. It very much reminded me of how irl slurs can be reclaimed by the oppressed community. Yes, someone might've gotten called "disgusting" or even "queer", but by accepting that part of yourself and finding fellow hurt souls in similar situations you can build a space in which the thing that's "disgusting" about you is accepted (or even celebrated).
We don't know much about the specifics of Komugi's trauma. Maybe she has a specific fetish which Meguru couldn't accept, maybe it was merely the fact she was a lesbian while Meguru was straight, maybe the sex itself was disgusting for a rather ace Meguru... We also don't know if Ren's trauma is due to any specific experience, or just the feeling that she'd be judged for what she likes.
In any case, we can expect Komugi and Ren to share their troubles and bond over it.

"Wait, what? You can actually do that in real life?" - those three, apparently. Turns out there's praxis to being gay, not just theory.

Handh*lding is as explicit as it gets, can't get much lewder than that

As the ancient texts say, be patient with your Boccher and you shall be rewarded

Aww, look at her, all sparkly-eyed! She just wants to boast about how they are now girlfriends! How could you say no to that face?

Huh. I think this is the first time I've seen hookah portrayed in manga... Maybe it's not that popular in Japan?
I can confirm such lounges are good for drawn out conversations, both casual and serious

Older ladies rock!
Also, that flirting was mega-cute

That's Futari... Hm. I'm unconvinced. Needs incest tag, though

Not surprised about the fork-in-outlet thing, coming from this artist... Always cute fanart, always kinda messed up

So many references...

But what's the author's apology about? Ahead of what story?

That kind of blurb is usually after the story, as an epilogue, and this time it wasn't, I guess?

And yeah, no matter how holy or angelical, if you can't be gay without anyone being bothered then that place isn't heaven.

Lewd

^Certainly not once in a lifetime for these two

Looks fun for now! The premise is a bit ridiculous, sure, but if the characters make it work then it's fine.
Roles-wise, maybe there's more to it than "I want to do X stuff, so my role is X-doer". Maybe they're supposed to be challenging, in a way? Also, maybe the school assigns names as well as the roles, and everyone uses an alias while in there. I guess we'll see.
For now, looks like Takizawa, the twin-tailed tsun girl, is the best candidate for a best friend/first lover.

^And even if there was someone, they'd top only because Lisa allowed them to.

Jamming while their mutual girlfriends Nijika and Kita are away doing extrovert stuff

^Maybe they're having another go?

Flirting with Senpai aside, Toki's comment has just opened Asumi to the idea of still getting escorts even in a relationship (the endgame)... But let's not rush to get it, there's plenty of spicy developments before we get there.
