Loved the use of the blue soy sauce as a metaphor for them as a family. A bit non traditional, discounted by others, but when added to added to the right dish, "...ish gud". I also liked how Akane reframed it, reinstating both of their worths. Joined with An's ultimate desire and enjoyment of the blue soy sauce, the narrative so nicely tied up the metaphor I initially thought this was a oneshot. Happy this is continuing~ I'll be happy if Akane and Miwa's relationship continued to be more yuri or if it continues into a secret third thing, high-resolution yuri. (Akane was so sweet with how she helped Miwa with her necklace )

As someone who was taken care of by a single father for a time, I always hated the often vapid comments like "kids need both a mother and a father". Those were the few times I felt sympathy for the bastard (my father), a man with many failings and yet didn't even get useful advice and critique. (Not as if that man listened to reasonable comments, so the sympathy was most likely moot.)
Miwa's rebuke of Keiko was extremely cathartic, I'm glad she was able to protect An and that she stood up for herself as well. What a wonderful read to start off pride month.

Thanks for the translation! I can't wait to read the rest!

What a merry bad ending~ Thank you for the scanlation and your thoughts!
Kuzushiro's horror and yanderes have to be my one my favorite things

I initially read Kagari more like a manifestation of Ageha's queerness. When Ageha was young, Kagari wasn't something that Ageha could see (though Kagari was probably still there, one could say like a moon on a rainy night). Nor is Kagari something others can explicitly see. However, when Ageha grew older she could acknowledge her queerness to some extent (by kissing, if only we could all be so lucky~). This made the scaries and the fear go away for a time, but also made the scaries even more frequent.
With this reading of the story, the central conflict is about inner acceptance. Kagari wants Ageha to completely accept her, even though she knows that she also causes Ageha to be ostracized to some extent. Kagari knows that is what will get rid of the scaries. But Ageha doesn't think that's realistic, because by accepting her queerness she becomes, well, queer. The idea of being queer is almost the scariest thing to her yet. However, page 35 is Ageha reaching that acceptance to some degree. It is the only page where Ageha and Kagari share the same eye color, seeming to be equals for a brief moment. In this case, the heterochromia is more like Ageha's quasi-acceptance, perhaps acceptance in some spaces and denial in others? Or denial till graduation? It's not mutual for now lol

Wait. Maybe it's a stretch but I wonder if the girl Sui likes is Reina's sister?

Sui did mention she was younger than Reina, being a college student and all, so maybe she goes to school with Reina's sister?
It would be wonderfully messed up if it was Reina's sister that Sui had a crush on, given she picked Reina on how close Reina looked like her crush. A resemblance that the person on page 8 vehemently denied. However, not sure how much credence those words have given that person also looks like an asshole who has a warped sense of reality given they're shitting on a kid who got an 87 on a test to do nothing but study.

Also is the person on page 8 one of Reina's parents or a relative perhaps? Cause they do seem older than Reina, but also they mention disliking some other mysterious "her" which is not Ai.
Reina seems to have had a shitty childhood for sure. Not great luck with looking like other people either tbh...

Adorable~

She really likes to say... "Love" huh...

Ikr. It's almost like she's in love with you or something... haha jk... unless..?

Kuzushiro's divine return to Yuri Hime!?
Thanks for the continued translations!

Aoyama and Kasumi here reminds me a bit of A Streetcar Named Desire, mostly in the antagonistic framing between realism (yuri?) vs fantasy (Class S?). Where Aoyama does come off as the cruel and brutish Stanley, deriving a gross pleasure from trying to break what she sees as a fantasy relationship rather than her narrow box of what she's labeled as real romance. Though Aoyama is much more sympathetic than Stanley. I don't think Igurashi is going to go full Blanche with Kasumi, but I hope this encounter doesn't scar her too much. This stranger was very much not just a friend you haven't met.

I will never get enough of Igurashi's framing and shading work, which always does such a good job invoking the sense dread and terror I often feel for Kasumi in this rather dark world. It's a bleak ending to this chapter and I figure the next chapter will revolve around Aoyama's own S journey, but I am hoping that soon Haruyo can bring back the light in Kasumi's world.

Thank you for the continued translations! I was really looking forward to this one though I figured it would be a harder one to translate with Aoyama's speech style.

Yuri injected right into my veins. Bless this author's NanoFate.

Wow so they really are girls and cousins too

What a pathetic doormat Yuzuki is... Hinata is the one saving this for me.

Victim blaming go brrr
In all seriousness, the majority of the story's setup revolves around Yuzuki's low self-esteem. Hinata's main conflict, keeping Yuzuki alive, is dependent on Yuzuki's conflict, rebuilding her self-esteem. I really don't understand reading a story when not buying the central premise or the protagonist, but you do you.

This is kind of a reverse Long-Awaited Feelings so I'm interested in how Yuzuki will continue going about rebuilding her sense of self before it's too late.

In Fumi I pray for the subtext to break

Miyagi's smile is goddamn precious

Gorgeous

The cover art always invokes some type of dread in me, though I never know what exactly I dread until I finish the chapter. I haven't felt this way since I watched Utena.

Thanks for picking this up and for the lovely the notes about the different romanizations! The adult life tag doesn't disappoint, looking forward to more of this!

It has always felt like to me that being an idol stan is a less questioned way to be gay in public... until it isn't. Comphet is rough, but doing things for your oshi is a hell of a drug.

Mone causing some self-reflection for Hanako's jealousy was a welcome surprise. However, considering that Mone is maybe not actually jealous of them but more scared about a certain killer witch makes Hanako's wrongly attributed empathy quite funny.

So soft
The one-sided blush on Taki's face is cute, any side of Taki facing Tomori is always a bit warmer

Gorgeous.

This is more so the live-action drama version but this series really does scratch the Indian soap opera drama part of my brain however with so much more gay

Wow I had forgotten how early the yearning started and what a yearner Miyagi is (even if it has tsun overtop of it). Must be Sendai's fault, cause the yearning beast that is Sendai keeps distracting me lol

The insane amounts of hand-holding being the last drops of water before a drought, I fear that it will be a while till we see Lapis and Natori together again...

Thanks for picking this up! I saw this series a bit ago and it really is extremely adorably sweet so glad it has made its way here

It seems like Nagi's choice of karaoke songs (which was also kindly uploaded), Tsugunai, explains her reasoning for breaking up with Manatsu the best. As Nagi views it, to make amends for initially using Manatsu, she has to break up with Manatsu because there are better people out there for Manatsu.
But Manatsu will surely show Nagi that she isn't looking to date a "better" person~

Thanks for the translation! Love Amazaki Suika's adorable dark haired girls with low self-worth

Beautiful~ this love...

I too like tall women~ (Are most women also taller than me, yes.)
