Miyako finally comfortable enough with Pakee to joke around about it. That's real character development right there. XD

Also, dang Ruri. Not content with just being a breadwinner, she's gonna found an entire company for the purpose of employing her GF. What a flex.

I loved this series a lot. Overall very cozy and wholesome, and I adore Yodokawa's art, especially the way she draws expressions. I can't wait to see what she does next. She mentioned in the volume 1 afterword that this series came about because she wanted something with a relaxed vibe after getting burned out doing her prior series, and I'm curious if she's going to continue with this kind of easygoing story, or if she'll pivot again to the opposite side of the spectrum.

Also, a reminder that the series has an official English release from Yen Press, with three volumes out so far!

Somehow missed this one when it was first uploaded, but I'm excited for another Amazaki Suika series! Her recent Cabaret girl one was great, and I'm liking the vibe of this first chapter already too. I'm curious if this is going to be a full series, or just a limited one volume serial like the Cabaret girl one.

Oh hey, this made it on here! It's funny, I don't actually like watching live basketball very much, but stories about basketball are consistently some of my favorite sports stories, and this series is no exception to that.

Speaking of which, what's the Sukeban manga that ended they mentioned in the credits page of chapter 42?

The title's name is Sukeban and Transfer Student, which has a few chapters on here uploaded under the name it had when it was a pixiv series: A Delinquent, A Transfer Student, and Their Silly Little Game.

Certainly one of the endings of all time.

Surprisingly serious chapter for this series. It's cool to get some backstory for Ruka.

If Suuna wakes up right now, she might actually just die. XD

Oh no, Michi's dad is hot.

All of these bonus comics are amazing. I can't decide if my favorite is Kasumi straight up admitting she mainly like Sayaka for her face, or Sayaka being wonderfully dumb as usual.

Oh wow, it's been so long since the last work with these two, that I didn't think we were getting any more. What a nice surprise!

I've loved every Usui Shio series I've read so far, and based on this chapter I expect that streak to continue. Like seemingly everyone else though, I am surprised to see Usui Shio doing such an openly horny series. I'm here for it though!

Always nice to get another chapter of this series. It's always such a delight.

Adorable fluff chapter. I love to see it.

Also, can I just take the opportunity to shout out Mikawa a bit? What an absolute champion. She spotted that Yamada was crushing on Kase way back at the beginning, and has been super supportive of their relationship the whole way. She was the only character to call out Kase in the last arc, and she's great at giving Yamada a bit of a push when Yamada needs it, but never goes too far. Everyone could use a friend like her. She's 100% earned the right to show up late at night and mooch food. XD

Asumi out here winning both literally and figuratively.

Mei, nearly making out with Karin in the bath doesn't necessarily mean you're in love, it just means you're horny. XD

(But that's okay!)

Wow, that was quite a bit darker than Nmi's previous one-shots. I dig it though. All of their one-shots have been bangers; I'd love to see what they can do with a full series.

A shark-tooth gyaru? I was definitely not expecting this development, but I'm intrigued.

This is reminding me of the recent race arc in Kase-san, in that it's one of my favorite series taking an abrupt nosedive in quality due to a dumb drama arc that makes very little sense. At least Nagisa finally told off the glasses girl this time, though it's kind of ridiculous that Nagisa immediately starts pressing Mashiro to answer her own question after brushing off Mashiro's question. Not a good look.

So far, this series has been really good at keeping up a brisk pace, so I'm still holding onto hope that this will be resolved swiftly and won't drag on for more than a couple chapters after this. Maybe the creator can stick the landing, but so far it's hard for me to see this arc as anything other than a misstep.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who is kinda confused by the ending. I really liked the first few chapters of this; it felt like exactly my preferred flavor of angst. But unfortunately I felt it kinda fell apart by the end.

Nice to see this updated! I've loved the first chapter ever since it was uploaded, so I'm really happy that it looks like the rest of the series is going to be getting translated!

So like is there some romance going on between Ms Mangaka and the other idol? I honestly am not sure

I generally read them as having a queerplatonic relationship. They're clearly close, but they also both have expressed that they aren't interested in romance, and not in a tsundere way.

Oh, a new update, nice!

I wonder what's really going on here. There's obviously some kind of miscommunication, but I'm about as lost as the MC in terms of figuring out what Rurika's thinking.

Well, I do enjoy me a good villainess series, so I'll take it. XD

Hopefully the shorter chapter length is the reason why this chapter feels like kinda filler. One of the things I love about this series is that it keeps a pretty brisk pace, and if this is the arc that bogs it down, then that will be a real shame.

It seems like it's setting up for an arc about Mashiro becoming more secure in her relationship with Nagisa, which is a good idea, but I can't say I love the execution thus far.

Oh hey, a Shion chapter that isn't awful! How novel. :P

But seriously, this was a really nice chapter. Looks like it's Kiki's turn now to take up the mantle of angst for this series.

I am desperately hoping that final panel means we'll get to see Hatomori's reaction next chapter. She's gotta be having an epic meltdown at the news, and I really want to see it.

I wonder if a similar concepts been used before. Where two yuri couples try to compete for popularity and outdo the other. I kinda wanna see that now

This is the premise of Because You Dazzled Me. The school basically sponsors a wacky sapphic couples' contest where couples compete against each other for votes on the school's internal social media app. I don't even think there's ever a prize specified, they just do it for clout, lol. It's very silly, but also really cute and sweet. It's only got four chapters uploaded here, but is complete on Mangadex.
