This is so cute. I can't...

After this chapter I reread the series and... the signs were there all the time (for the old toxic romance). But I only understood them now. Truly awesome.

Also I live for that last panel. Sumie looks at Manatsu so full of fear and heartbroken. I can't wait what will happen.

From the chapter count it seems that we will je getting another volume?

I actually like none of the elements displayed here normally. (except for the revenge/reversal part, which made me come here itfp) And it started so toxic. But then I was just thinking... "well they're both horrible, so I at least don't need to feel sorry for anyone." And then it was actually kind of interesting. At least it doesn't hurt anyone uninvolved, huh.

I have absolutely no idea who these people are, but... this was beautiful T.T

Cute ending, but feels like it chickened out of its premise.

i feel the same way. the oneshot and subsequent first chapter seemed to be setting up a totally different vibe. like the mangaka wanted to create toxic yuri but didn't have it in them so we just got like, teasing/comfort for 8 chapters.

And personally I'm happy with that lol

Same haha. Turns out I have new fetish. Things that seem toxic but actually aren't. XD

What a sweet chapter. A little sad that it's ending so soon. I had hoped that Kira would talk to hikaru about the reason why she hated romance. But it feels like those two found a good way to make their relationship work. I love that the dynamic isn't so onesided. This definitely has become one of my favorites. <3

Madly in love....

I wa super confused what the problem here is too. Like, why is Hikaru bothered that Kairi is being nice. But then again, she just wants to know what is going on with her GF. It's time they talk. Hikaru needs to understand why Kairi said those things, too. I love this manga so much!! Can't wait for more. I've been reading this chapter like 5 times already... T.T

I love the ambigous ending. And both characters are probably difficult, so they make a good pair.

Man, uncomfortable stalker vibes... But not uninteresting. I will keep an eye on how this one progresses, I think.

It's time for me to come here again and cry

This story will always be one of my favorites. It just hits the right spot. It's one of those series where you can really see two ppl complementing each other well. I'm not even mad about the classical roles they both fall into at the end. Housewife etc... because it somehow fits them. They both seem happy with it and with each other.

But holy... when did that doujin pop up, lol.

Man, she's a bitch. I can't stand ppl like her at all. so... judgemental...? damn toxic for sure tf

That last scene feels weirdly dark for a reunion sex moment... but I liked the happy ending I guess.

Exactly what I thought. I really loved this, but the last scene portraied it so weirdly. Maybe it was just supposed to show her "dark" side. Since it was kinda a role reversal. Or it was a unfortunate artistic choice to portray nighttime.

Also, I wish there was a lesbian bar where I live -.-

I liked the art. It was pretty funny. Reminded me of Dragon Ball for some reason. Just wish the Sex scene would have been executed differently

There is supposed to be a second part somewhere....

^ Maybe I am missing sth, but nobody really accused her of queerbaiting? Not in this comment section anyway. At least in my case I was just afraid that the Drama VS fluff content would be too much on the Drama side. And queerbaiting is not the only reason it can lead to nowhere. I' m still a burnt child by "Their story". But yes the recent chapters have been awesome. Now I want to see a bazillion more chapters.

Not me, tapping at the screen furiously, because I couldn't believe it really ended there...

This one is still one of my favs, but I cringed hard at the Office ladies defending being harassed. Glad that women are getting angrier these days

Man, they were making so much progress. At least Kira made. Hikaru seems to have a lot of self-loathing in herself. She said it from the beginning, that she is not good at anything... And we just believed her. But she probably is just hating on herself so much :O Also she still wasn't able to be honest about what she really wants to do. It's like they are tip-toeing around each other. "Let's do what you like." - "No, no. let's do What YOU like..."
And now this. -.- I bet her mom has similar issues. Like that she has trouble finding out what she needs and always putting others first in a way that is not healthy. But maybe it's a chance for Kira to show a supportive side?

I am so addicted to this. I was checking the series for updates for days...

I mean she was a major bitch and made her gf cry. But in the end it worked out, so fine xD

the chapter titles, lol.

Honestly, I am team no harem, but well let's see.

Please explain to me chapter 4 like I'm five, I didn't understand it

Kira is tired of people she does not know falling in love with her. From her perspective she's not doing anything, just existing, and then suddenly now and again a stranger who intensely wants things from her appears. Worse yet the unwanted attention causes her social problems, so it's experienced as an imposition that she starts to resent. "You have no idea who I am and yet you show up, demand the most intimate things from me and fuck up my social life in the process??" Which is a fuckin mood, though I didn't experience it myself until I was in my 20's, and which has mercifully subsided now that I'm an old hag.

Then Hikaru shows up and she thinks it's going to be more of the same, except Hikaru actually asks to be rejected. There's this dynamic in social justice circles that might be illustrative here, where sympathetic people on a higher rung of the social hierarchy get verbally abused by those lower on it because people who deal with bigotry can't take it out on the actual bigots but you can yell at a friendly straight person or whatever. It's a kind of displacement, the people you actually want to yell at won't ever understand why you're yelling at them but the friendly straight person will see and understand your pain, so you take out your frustration on them instead. Hikaru actually isn't shallow in the way Kira disdains, despite her uncontrollable infatuation she has her priorities and asks to be rejected, but Kira sees her as a convenient outlet for her frustration so she decides to mess with her. As she gets to know her she realizes she's treating her as a prop in her internal drama the same way people who don't know her asking her out do, and starts to feel guilty about it. And catches feelings in the process.

There's a trope in medieval Arabic literature (you're an extremely precocious five year old, we're assuming) where a character gets asked by a monarch to become an advisor, and the character refuses, because they're a pious person who does not sully themselves with ugly demands of power, their priorities correctly concerned with heaven rather than earthly matters. The offer to become a vizier establishes the worth of the person, and the rejection of the opportunity for more social status establishes their piety. In a sense Hikaru established her worth by asking to be rejected, because what is not demanded can be freely given. Kira can love her back and feel it uncoerced specifically because Hikaru never asked to be loved.

^ really nice analysis! Beautiful.

Holy, this has such a great character growth. I love it. In the beginning I was a little worried that this was gonna excuse toxic behaviour, but I am pleasantly surprised by the amount of self-reflection and that reverse scene at Kairi's home was awesome!!

Oh yes!

Hm, not my thing either. I read the first three pages to evaluate the toxicity for my own, but got bored by the tropes and kind of soulless art. I guess if you are into the drama and strict roles that characters fit into, maybe this is not all that bad.
