As for old series Kase-san was continued via Yamada to Kese-San and started at least on Dynasty Scans in 2012, could be a year older. This focuses on one couple who are trying now to survive university in series 2. So even though this is a different series, almost the same story is still going in the second book with the 2 main characters and 2 others from the original series.

I have a feeling the series might go on with the Main couple who seem like they are going to make it past high school Ai and Chie then show others who might have the best chance after these two. I also would like to see if AI runs track in university given she got 5th in the 100 meter doing all the 400 meter and under event or not, given her talent being 5th at nationals. If not, Mari and Yui as a couple with Mari going on to track in her disaplins of 400 meter and 800 meter becuse they did sign the marrage registration forms. Mahiro and Mahiru would be the only other couple to focus on because they seem like they are going to make it as a couple also having signed the marriage registration forms though more openly then Mari and Yui.

I am surprised that Yamada to Kase San + is not on here, the follow up is really good so far as first to second year university students trying not to burn themselves out to make their dreams come true.

Whoah, Arai mentions Clueless!

So, is there an actual CD with licensed music? Or just a liner of song titles for you to seek out on your own?

It's an official soundtrack for the manga you can get on vinyl or cd. Released in Japan, but also found imported in the US at Kinokuniya bookstores. Both versions come with the same booklet content. Considering they had to get license for each of them not a bad selection.

There is also an official streaming playlist that has more songs. https://umj.lnk.to/TheGuySheWasMP

Some of the choices are odd. Dani California instead of Otherside. Brain Stew instead of American Idiot. Et cetera.

The Selection of songs actually fits more for the era of when the artist/writer developed the Manga and I would have put Holiday over American Idiot on here but being real I would have had Longview and had an Offspring song Gotta get Away as this song fits how the main character Koga Mitsuki is feeling in early parts of the Manga feeling like the total outsider.

I currently like real life stuff; my favorites have my running hobby in them like The Kase San and Yamada to Kase San in them and I work in a greenhouse currently. Another is long running Virgins Empire especially with the running in it or the two gay Fathers.

Random fact: there's no Virgins' Empire anime (unfortunately), but there's a "voice comic" (whatever that is)

The cast is as follows:
Hibiki Aoi as Miyoshi
Chika Anzai (Reina from Hibike Euphonium and Chisato from Lycoris Recoil) as Ayano
Satomi Satou (Ritsu from K-On and Wendy from Fairy Tail) as Chie
Mariya Ise (Killua from 2014 HxH and Urara/Cure Lemonade from Precure) as Ai
Reina Ueda (Umi from Idolmaster ML, Ganyu from Genshin and Suzuya from Asteroid in Love) as Honoka
And Sumire Uesaka (Anastasia from Idolmaster and Nagatoro from Nagatoro) as Elisha

Miyoshi's VA is the only one who hasn't had any major-ish role yet.

Edit: also, I thought Nao x Onibi would become one of the pairings, but if you don't count those themed image sets the author does sometimes, they never interacted again after the Maebari incident.

Edit 2: Talking about Nao, shouldn't Nao x Hibiki be a tag?

A Voice comic is for the blind and impaired hearing, mainly done in Japan as their disability requirement for popular media, this one might not be popular enough for a Voice Manga but made because of enough requests by the LGBT+ community needing it for the Manga to read for the blind/nearly bind in the comunity.

Little Honoka wishing for a school friend breaks my heart.

Probably due in part to her liking anime and then who her parents are I bet does not help in a place like Alabama.

Really enjoyed Eli/Honaka's past chapter just because it didn't revise the past like it did for Haruka/Kanae.

I was pissed more about Ai & Chie since they supposedly only met in High School from how chapter 0 and 1 interactions went. A single meeting both forgot about until some event helps them remember seems more plausible hen an Ai & Chie Knowing each other pre meeting for first time in High School year 1.

But they don't meet? They just walk past each other without taking any notice at all?

I had mixed up chapters from Ai and Chie with one before it.

So I assume these two have been in useless lesbian with each other since elementary school? Wow.

Actually, they didn't meet until high school. And when Chie first saw Ai, believe it or not, she didn't like her because she thought she seemed like a "Yankee" (a delinquent). Or at least that's what she told herself. But Chie was still weirdly fixated on her and started to get drawn in, and when she learned Ai was actually a really nice person, became completely infatuated.

I'm pretty sure @Liliaĵa was talking about Ayano and Miyoshi ;⁠-⁠)

As badly as this forum tends to abuse "useless lesbian" and "idiot couple" yeah I would imagine Ai and Chie are as close as "safe" as anyone can get from that since they've been a couple since like, what, their fourth or fifth chapter together?

Didn't Chie basically do a proposal to Ai in asking about future when saying I'm home or almost ask for a proposal before interruptions?

That was adorable. I'm glad the author did this instead of finding some way for them to have met as kids before meeting in the manga story lol.
Also weird time compression feeling to see Eli talk about watching Amazon prime streaming before she came to Japan when she was introduced in the manga back in 2013, long before Amazon Prime streaming was even called that, and way before they were licensing and localizing anime I think. It's like a Simpsons thing where the characters don't age but time keeps flowing around them in real time, updating their pasts and presents.

Yes, this is how said manga has been going for years like Simpsons or Family Guy, they do not take the King of the Hill approach of a long running show.

Weirdly enough, the first thought I had reading the last chapter was ' ' I wonder if the two teachers caught on to the new fad'' and Kishi-sensei delivers right away XD They're fast becoming my favorite pairing of the brunch.

If something comes of being more then just going out for drinks after work maybe.

Apparently, school must be in an LGBT+ or lesbian area of specific big city or midsized city. See current chapter. Everyone is now Lesbian.

There is litterally no way they dont know how they feel about each other and that they both know it - so can't they just start dating please ?

They are dating and have been intimate before, during the Errand run Ai's mom did. They are dating, so I would assume from this chapter https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/virgins_empire_ch260 Ai even proposed living together after they graduate from High School at 18 or 19, depending on rules of the University first year of undergraduate students. Schools in USA most with dorms have similar rules for the first year undergraduate university students that most require to be on campus, though a few do not require this due to no campus dorms with some cases of being online as the school is very far away/online only.

I bet so, or at least a comedic seduction strike.

Mom's notion that her daughter could be heterosexual lasted for, oh, maybe two panels tops?

Her heteronormative culture made that her thoughtless assumption to her daughter talking about romance. But, since it's her daughter and she knows her, the moment she put a minute or so of actual thought into it she realized it could only be one person.

That's how it read to me at least.

That is how I read it too, was that Mom was thinking who could it be. Mom then realized who the one person her daughter found special and immediately went to rooting on her daughter and her best friend.

lol I love the taking off glasses and everything is immediately blurry. That crack me up so bad I can't feel the softness anymore

As somebody with a need for glasses that can only see close and far away is harder with Astigmatism as well past the close point, the author Kishi Torajirou nailed the focus and how it looks sort of in Astigmatism without glasses on.

Was looking back and am pretty sure this scene and this one are tied together.
Seems like the cross over point of the two chapters.

Thanks for that.

So what was with Mahiru? Was she trying to protect Mahiro's innocence by distracting her with car talk?

I doubt it. She and Mahiro kiss each other all the time, so what's so special about YuuMari just walking close to each other? I think she really did just get distracted by the car.

I think she's clued into the fact that Yuu and Mari like-like each other. Her expression on page 2 struck me as sad at first, but after looking back at it I think it was more gentle. I suspect she ships it. The bit with the car could be her distracting Mahiro, but I took it as a joke about Mahimahi's ditziness, like you said. You think she's noticed them snuggling, because that's where our attention is drawn, but actually she's just distracted by the expensive car.

My interpretation is that it's supposed to be ambiguous. It genuinely could be either possibility, and that's what I like about it.

So Ambiguous like the way Yuu and Mari try to play there relationship in that they are in but one of them Yuu is hesitant to admit but loves to tease/light BDSM Mari mainly with SM?

I think the next most developed couples after Ai and Chie are the two couples, we saw in chapter 259 Rain and Mercedes.

They seem to be the next furthest along even if Mari and Yuu have a hard time thinking they are a couple due to Yuu.

Mahiro and Mahiru I am not sure they consider themselves a couple but might even be deeper like a Childhood friends situation who slowly morphed into a couple so they might the type where it hurts to be apart for very long times.

There are other close thirds, but I have a feeling they are not go as deep as these couples or possibly do but we do not know/get to see it.

Ai and Chie, the mom in chapter 260, Mrs./Miss Kamizono totally wants proof her daughter Ai is dating Chie. I bet Ai's Mom has a feeling and that is why she went up to the room to try catching them in the act by using the excuse to ask for anything. The way the Mom acted in the first page of the chapter with the Thanks for being a good friend to Ai ! with the joy in her voice is almost a dead giveaway.

Honestly is there any place in the world that doesn't have giant spiders?

Ours are like a centimeter or two across from claw to claw, tops. Big spooders are kind of a warm-climate thing.

We have some that can be from leg to leg 5 cm/2 inch or so for the big ones in South Dakota. They also look similar to the spider here as a larger type of Wolf Spider, or are a type of garden spider, and last one I almost forgot, zebra spider. Then some black widow are about 3.8 cm/1.5 inch at the biggest.
