chiyo is great, what a bitch indeed

kanna even better though with the flying princess catch, nice

and actually, despite their somewhat childish affect. xiaoyang's response in this situation is quite measured and mature

somehow missed this until now, it was very enjoyable! excited but also worried to see where it's going

also congrats michiru, staying up late looking at nudes you took of your friend and thinking how hot she is, totally normal straight behaviour

i don't think it's been shown before? but i feel like it makes sense. mask is so cool

i don't think that's how trauma works, misa

omg that shot of ruuka looking under the desk is a work of art

love these dummies so much, bring on volume 3

i had expected the kouhai-invite fakeout, the wording was too nonspecific

narratively speaking i expect you all are right about aya's true feelings but i think it would actually be kind of great if aya just genuinely thought "who cares about the prom this could be your shot!"

Huh. I wonder if Hana's mum was a witch, since she seems legitimately supernaturally strong, and calling her a witch was how her dad insulted her.
She doesn't have the canines, though.

yeah i thought the same thing, if she might be a half-witch or something. oh yeah, good point about the teeth tho

this is fun and cute so far but also i wanna see more of kinda-already-over-it hero and tsundere princess

i wonder if it's another auditionee that is haunting the group

you fool minami, if you kiss her and tell her you love her you might start getting her hopes up that you love her and want to kiss her.

also yooo get it hinori!

manatsu is so cute!

i really like the art on this one, clean and simple but still very expressive.

Whaaaat? The author's coloring is 100x better than the AI colored one

yeah, it looks okay at first glance but there are a bunch of things it got completely wrong

no romance tag so no relationship??? :(

It's chapter 1.

No one knows which direction it's going to take, unless you're in the author's head.

aren’t the tags decided before that? like you can’t say a manga is shoujo and suddenly is not half way through! so that’s way i was ??? if there will be no romance since there is no romance tag, tho i do expect actual yuri any way :3 since i do trust the author

i mean it does say "In Woman x Woman we trust!" in the blurb on the title page so i think we're probably good

i feel like this might be the most we've ever seen of mao in one chapter? anyway she made a noble sacrifice, a good umbrella is hard to find!

riko embodying yuri fans everywhere

it was done well, i got the sense that maybe beneath the joking around yumimi might actually have had a bit of a thing for miyoshi, who was ofc too wrapped up in ayano to notice. luckily yumimi has nononon now so i don't expect it to go any further but it makes the world feel more connected and gives extra depth to the characters

Are there any other horror manga like this one, where it has creepy background details that aren't noticed by the characters or pointed out explicitly to the reader, until they build up? It's a great technique in horror movies but for some reason this is the first time I've seen it in a manga.

'i see you, aizawa-san' is quite similar in this respect

Last chapter was Honoka sending of the manuscript, this chapter is her getting a call about that manuscript submission while they're in the classroom. So last chapter was a flashback, not a flash forward.

yeah, but in that chapter elisha says to send it "if she gets lonely" and the background changes to white to indicate the end of the flashback (now we know, only of the flashback within the chapter, which is itself another flashback). idk if it was a purposeful misdirect or just normal virgins empire timeline shenanigans tho

there's some timeline stuff going on here, the previous honoka chapter definitely made it seem like we had timeskipped to after elisha left, but now she's getting a call back about the contest while still in the classroom with kaoru. wait...has kishi-sensei actually had everything meticulously planned out and we've been jumping back and forward in time to exactly the right moments? (no)

i mean they are messing around talking bs but given that it made sense to me. and the art only seems to get better. those colour pages...

ngl this doesn't actually hurt as bad as whisper, i really liked that series. this one did start very promisingly especially for an original doujin, tho actually i think this super extended sleepover storytime is the sort of thing an editor might have helped with a lot.

no...not again...not like this...
