So how likely do we think it is that Tan Tailan and Princess Ming are to end up with each other.

100%

All of this just has me wondering how many people know that the "emperor" is really the empress. The General seems like she probably does.

I'm confused.... Is her father permanently stuck as a woman? Or are her parents just making out all the time so it's always the case? Because they said there's no precedent for someone becoming stuck but the story seems to imply her father is unable to become a man again.

If they did get stuck as a woman, there's no reason not stay as one if you don't want to. Trans men exist in Japan, after all.

And they were roomates

Cool start and then suddenly hits you with the transphobic trope that doesn't actually happen IRL. Just stirring a up a little hatred for fun!

inb4 the main character is written like a trans woman but the series vehemently denies anything queer the whole time. (This probably will not happen.)

Was hoping for MioTop and got disappointed, come on doujin makers! It's all I want!

The only way this would be better if it was Mio instead of Suletta.

"Call off the engagement!" bitch do you want to marry some fucking man? I mean come on, how is this not the best possible outcome for you?

If Akira dies I'm dropping this.

I'm on team Risa now, all the way.

Hi, I would like a full series starting like this but it's a nice, long romance story. Do you take souls as payment?

Denser than a fucking neutron star, good lord.

Yep, that settles it, Komachi has the makings of a psychopath.

I don't think that's true. She's passively suicidal and doesn't understand people, but she's not evil. She isn't what the word "psychopath" implies, and I don't think she lacks empathy entirely.

Don't do that to me, author. Don't give me hope that this might all turn out okay.

Behold, the easiest way to become the victim of a hate crime.

I would read an entire series of this concept, self-aware characters in a god awful, generic harem manga but two of them are yuri? It's a crime this didn't get more

Cool, where's the rest of it?

... well I obviously knew he will be nowhere near the focus, but I'm still kinda surprised that Aoi's husband got basically no screentime :P No face, no name, no lines on his own wedding, we don't even know if he's at least sorta nice or not. Sure bodes well

Let's be honest, does anyone give a fuck about the husband? Maybe giving him a face would have been a nice touch, but no one wants Generic Japanese Man #403 to have too big of a part in a yuri manga. He was everything he needed to be for the story.

Also,Japan has the age of consent at 13,many prefectures bump that up to 16 at least,and teens getting laid is common in all nations,so...

The law is not the same as morality. And yeah, teenagers have sex with other teenagers. That's obviously fine, and not relevant to this.

Teens get laid in every nation,and it can be with other teens,some are bad enough to do it with younger,and plenty do it with older.

More so when cold hard cash is involved and/or the general regions' living conditions are tad bit low.

The laws are what they are,but morality is meaningless when feelings are involved,and boy oh boy,did those feeiings explode.

Also,pedophilia is for those who target 13 and under,depending on puberty,and usually pre-puberty.

Hebephilia is for those who target 11 to 14 or slightly above,usually in the midst of puberty.

And what we see here is ephebophilia,15 to 19,the late puberty stages(all three have overlaps with each other becauase RAGING HORMONES).

But,as in this case and many one on one couple romances,the older one is mainly,if not exclusively,attracted to their partner,who just happens to be younger.

The second you start doing this, you're giving yourself away. Stay away from kids if you know this much about this crap.

Sorry, but I happen to believe 18 is a pretty good age. It's arbitrary, yes, but I know 16 year olds, and I know 18 year olds, and I'm comfortable saying that the difference is large enough that 18 is the number for age of consent that makes more sense. 17 is grey maybe, but still just doesn't feel right. Maybe some of my hatred for this turn comes from the fact that I simply prefer develop slowly into sex rather than just going for it immediately, but that's personal preference.

Anyone would assume, given the tone of the series until now that that was a joke, not foreshadowing.

It was a good series and they suddenly decided to make one of the main characters a pedophile. Thought I was getting a nice, serious manga that deals with the reality of being gay in Japan and that comes out of nowhere.

WHAT THE FUCK

They just fucking ruined everything. It's gone, the entire series is fucking ruined. Jesus Christ.
