this chapter is so meta, oh god

Oh wow this was an INCREDIBLE first chapter.

i have chills.

series has felt super unfocused since the time skip to the point I genuinely don't know what the point of anything is.

reads manga titled "My First Love with another girl's girlfriend"
"There had better not be any cheating in here"

what did they mean by this?

But but she didn't give her the bracelet did she!?

that was the love charm she bought in the New Year's chapter, it wasn't part of the gift, just her being a gayass.

classic awkward moment when you find out the girl you've idealized has interiority and isn't actually in love with you just because you're obsessed with her.

more yuri manga with protagonists who are weird little freaks please. just downright maladjusted cretins.

Both of them are quite messed up in their own right.

How long before she tries to pay her off to sleep with her because she heard others also did it. Clearly she has no issues with money if she's dropping tons of yearbooks just so she can masturbate to a small picture of her.

this is 1000% happening, and it's gonna be so awkward. big fan.

that thigh bite is kino

the secondhand embarrassment when the coworker tries to drop references....

I love how they think that female knights were a normal enough thing :-D
(and this comes from a fervent researcher of historical examples of female knights in medieval Europe and actual author of a published book on the subject matter whose title I won't state so not to dox myself)

reading lord of the rings i love how they think dragons were a normal enough thing

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FINALLY

i would let hana ruin my life i think

This almost gives me similar vibes to like, if pink candy kiss was told from/including the husband's perspective. im intrigued!

to be so disastrously in love with someone and yet she doesn't even know who you are because (it looks like) you never interacted much and your life changing event was just a normal day to her.

im wondering if it's that or an amnesia plot line, which would be much less interesting.

it would be funny if all this time the player was actually trying to flirt with her but the other gal was too dense to notice

i'd bet all the money I have that this is the case, it seems pretty predictable

it's always a one shot when you least want it to be.

this was nice, a strikes a really good balance between sweet and bitter feelings. more antisocial mask girl yuri please.

god i missed this, every new chapter of this puts me at risk of entering a diabetic coma, it's just so syrupy sweet and sentimental I can't even handle it. this feeling of mounting anticipation.... it's so close to blooming....

stilted mtl, my favorite

Her "first"? How?

yeah this genuinely made me a bit angry, like I read the beginning of the manga what are you trying to pull? like i imagine it's supposed to be like she only ever made out with other girls or something and didn't go "all the way" but then why would she call them sefure??? do they just think the audience is too bitchmade to handle a yuri manga protagonist who isn't a virgin?

im a bit frustrated with the constant bait and switches but I don't mind Hario getting fleshed out a bit more as we go into the climax. he's as much a part of the story as Ema and Takara, as him being a genuinely supportive figure is the main thing that keeps this from being a dime a dozen "woman cheats on her evil husband with her true love" story. ema cares for him even if she doesn't love him so I don't mind the development, but god takara is exhausting.

it looks like it was originally created in 2018 so I don't think the anti-vax implications were intentional (though unfortunate with hindsight). I think this is more of a combination of personifying growing older and conforming to social expectations as women (marrying men, working corporate jobs) as "zombies" and the girls choosing to die to not "become like them". Hence the final page being people reading a newspaper on a packed train, presumably commuting to work discussing their suicide. It's a bit bleak but I don't think it's malicious.

im always looking at the love charm i bought at the love shrine and thinking longingly about my platonic friend

So the box cutter is still a flashback, from before Sayori saying "we're great, hey we should double date"? Interesting.

I'm not so sure, I think page 28 shows her ending that conversation and walking away and the rest of the chapter is her ruminating on college and subsequently thinking about how to break the news before she ultimately does in the last few pages. Hard to say for certain.

i feel like I can already tell where this is going. that's not inherently a bad thing (The Summer You Were There didn't exactly have any surprises but I still loved that), but this one feels like I've already read it before.

i hope this doesn't awaken anything in me
