lol, still easily embarassed.

Calm down, Joe knows what's up. :D

Ha ha. My version is that Joe was like "Aya said the funniest thing during the call... I wonder what that was all about" and Kanna gave him A Look and said "Joe." and continued staring at him until the penny dropped and he clued in.

I think it's still up in the air how the arc about MC coming to terms with their transgender identity will play out. There's been good arguments above for both points of view but I'm not super optimistic.

The fact that the other main character that we've been introduced to is the student council rule enforcer and the fact that the school's main rule is NO BOYS really suggests that we're looking at a transgender yuri Three's Company with student council rep in the role of Mr Roper. So look forward to lots of zany antics surrounding swim class! And annual physical inspections with the school nurse! And a big stink when MC inadvertently wins the school track meet!

I mean, about the BEST possibility is something like "I want to give my endorsement to whatever you're doing and be supportive--and obviously you NEED my endorsement before you do anything, so it's OK for me to interrupt whatever you're doing in order to give it." And it gets worse from there.

Do you think the implication is that the son is the one sitting at the bar in https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/hanamonogatari_ch09#13? It could be just setting up the dialog about how this is the sort of place that her husband used to come to, but that feels kind of weak. I think it's more likely to be a bridge between the son's tantrum during the pre-date and showing up unannounced during the aprés-date.

"The plain girl sitting next to me is actually kind of hot and cool" is not exactly the freshest premise but who doesn't love a bit of Gyaru Gay Panic? Muromaki has put out some other great stories so I'm tentatively hopeful for this.

It's getting real hard to not be on team yellow at this point. I really want her to be happy ­­­;(

She doesn't know it yet, but like 90% of gay girls that she meets for the rest of her life are going to fall for her hard. (and a lot of straight boys ftm)

Update: Actually, it turns out that Onibi has been canonically hot for awhile now. https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/virgins_empire_ch147#6 (bottom panel, plus middle panel on pg 7.)

Not sure if it's Nao or whoever, but some character is about to have a fucking gay panic induced heart attack.

I'm thinking Kaoru, V-E's most dedicated Player. Mayoi is going to step up her game.

Ch 303: Hooray for Granny!
Ch 304: Tag should be Elisha x Honoka. (Eli x Honoka takes us to the Love Live! characters.) I think this might be my favourite pairing in the whole series? Extrovert x Gloomy Girl just really appeals for some reason.
All chapters: Chads never miss.

Whatatwist! That sure was a twisty twist that I definitely didn’t see coming when she was being pulled by the hand by the blondie. My socks are gone it was such a shocker

A twist that was also absolutely not telegraphed by the fact that sis was referring to her lover using gender non-specific pronouns!

Kitazono, looked at Minami and decided it would be easier to completely overhaul her life and become a professional cosplayer and celebrity, so she could eventually tempt Minami into following her home, so she could force her to cosplay her favorite characters rival, rather than just asking the girl who came to her for advice on cosplaying if she'd like to cosplay with her.

So true. But I think they both needed to grow out of their high school Mean Girl / Nerd personalities before their relationship could work.

I resisted reading this for the longest time because of the title. Turns out there's only a small amount of minor blackmail and the MC isn't actually a green tea bitch! Who could have seen that coming?

Best part so far: Tong Tong walking in on her mother having phone sex but being too caught up in her own feelings to even notice.

This whole final volume has had "whoops we just got axed" written all over it.

The last straw for me was the Failure To Confess at the ski lodge, especially after such a big build-up. I stopped following the strip at that point and it wouldn't at all surprise me if enough other people felt the same that it tanked its monthly rating in whatever magazine it's published in.

Talk about a slow-burn. The tags say Yuri but here we are twelve chapters in. and we barely even have Subtext.

"A Yuri Story About How My Classmate Whose Only Good Trait Is Her Excessively Pretty Face Comes At Me Relentlessly. And She Also Has Massive Boobs and An Amazing Ass"

That certainly took a turn.

Ch 16: I love how Vice Prez' internal monologue got increasingly filthy until it had to be censored entirely.

Also could someone please explain the "-chami" joke? The google says it means "beautiful"... is this a common honorific for gyarus?

not gonnae lie i felt a palpable sense of relief when i flipped the page and they were actually kissing. god fucking bless!!!!!

Such a breath of fresh air after reading so many manga where Useless Lesbians take months to move the relationship forward by a quarter of a millimetre, only to retreat back to square one at the first sign that something might actually happen.

p5: Ruri dropping those bedroom eyes and Hato being all "Haven't we discussed like twelve times how I'm Aro/Ace and how idols aren't allowed to date?"

Need some fan art of Misa and Hase in a private room at the swinger club along with the caption "... they were both tops".

Akiyama is the author. The character is Tsuzuki.

In my defence, I'm terrible with names even in my native language.

The truth of the matter is that someone who can't bear seeing their loved one with another person can't possibly get involved in a polyamory relationship.

Maybe it's two sides of the same coin, but it wasn't exactly that Kashiwai resented Tsuzuki being with other people, it's more the math of being one in three. I think the key moment is when Kashiwai looked at the calendar and realized that she would be getting face time with Tsuzuki two to three days a week.

I think it's relevant that the one thing we get to see about Kashiwai's life with glasses girl is that they are doing something spontaneous together. That's not something that she would have been able to do with Tsuzuki, not unless it happened to be during their assigned time slot.

By the way, what does the MC mean when she said
...The feelings those girls had, the ones that had to disappear, or they had to give up on, it doesn't feel like someone else's problems.. ?

MC and shop lady are basically speaking to each other in code.

SL: Here is a book you should read, which coincidentally (wink wink) is on the subject of GL. Allow me to call attention to a particular chapter, which reminds me of you (wink wink).

MC: I notice that this book that that you loaned to me is on the subject of girls having to give up on their true feelings (wink wink we're talking about girls who like girls but ended up in a heteronormative marriage that's what we're talking about here, right), which happens to be a subject relevant to my interests (wink wink).

Keeping the topic general and abstract but with oh so much subtext. That way there's no embarrassment if they're reading the room wrong, but they can say what they want to say if the other person knows how to parse it.

Start the ep with matching earrings, end it with matching rings.

It takes some guts to upend your entire life and move to the country on the assumption that the cute woman from the poster at the supermarket is

• not a model from a stock photo agency
• single
• gay.

The scholarly lecture about the Tsundere archetype legit made me lol.
