I wonder if we will learn that they are NOT blood related at some point? That would be... a poor plot device.

Please no... I don't complain for plot device almost all the time, but that would be too cheap and make the whole point of the story die...

Especially since it's called 1 x 1/2 and starts out with a talk about DNA, making clear this is about "half the DNA". Randomly deciding that that was just some weird red herring all along and refers to something completely different (maybe the aunt is "half" her mother since she's her fathers sister...) would be really, really, really infuriatingly cheap.

Aww I like conflicts in my yuri but isn't the whole incest thing enough conflict? I'm not too fond of triangles, especially since from my past readings a third person that is very friendly to Ayako like this new girl usually gonna end up treat Asuka like trash behind her mother's back and because "something something incest is bad so it's better for mom to be with her and so I can get over mom" Asuka will not tell her mom about it (even though that would solve everything) until like 10 chapters later (because fuck your cute yuri we need forced drama). Well at least that's the worst case scenario I could imagine.

Considering this is a pretty drama heavy series this is really unlikely to happen, but I'm hoping this is just drama bait, you know, one of those new characters introduced in the end of a chapter and foreshadowed to cause a lot of trouble but it's just drama bait and she won't actually cause any trouble next chapter or she will cause trouble but in the end it was all a misunderstanding from Asuka's POV or something

I'd like a manga actually drawing them as appearing from nowhere, with some light- and soundeffects. Then the protagonist would "But they didn't even exist a moment ago! They literally appeared from nowhere!"-tsukkomi.

I too would admire that kind of narrative honesty.

I can't describe how much I like this serie. Every time a new chapter is uploaded, I reread everything from the beginning.

GAAAAASSSP You stay away, suitcase lady!

Finally, chapter 6 is Here :D

i feel this will not end well lol

I want to see what she says, if she's bad or not first... If she's just some mean woman who gets in the way just because drama then I'll just take a break from this like I did with yuzumori, if not, then it could be interesting... Because like someone said up there, we really don't need more complications in a relationship already complicated.

Minor errors in chp 6 were fixed

This won't end well will it?

i mean is mother x daughter incest story when this kind of stories go well (hentai doesnt count)

I'm pretty sure Mochi Au Lait would make this kind of thing turn out just fine.

i mean cano could also make it work somehow but i mean in real life not in yuri wonderland where everything is possible

For everyone feeling irritated by potential rival appearance I just want to advice to not jump to conclusions. This manga already proved a few times that it’s not following usual stereotype's bullshit.

I would like to point out that in response to this new character, I had a reaction of "oh! Someone new. This will shake things up a bit" as opposed to Citrus, where every new character is greeted with "ugh, here comes another pointless annoying arc"

Even if it ends up bad, 1x1/2 will still look miles better by comparison.

You're not the Cannibal's clone, are you?

Not gonna lie, been checking the comments everyday because y'all are just as entertaining as the story.

Given the context of a story about a daughter falling in love with her mother, I'm especially curious about what the readers are saying about it.

Even if it ends up bad, 1x1/2 will still look miles better by comparison.

So will just about anything, compared to Citrus.

I can't read the raws anymore in pixiv. what happened? did the author remove it?

Citrus isn't so great? Are you kidding me? When was the last time you saw a manga with so much chesee and drama Citrus puts the melodrama in another level, and we will be blessed if we ever see a manga with his art and character desing . Girflriends breaks records hanjuku joshi breaks records. Citrus breaks the rules. You can keep your statistics. I prefer the cheese

Keep Citrus to its own thread, please. Better to stay focused on this series instead.

Yes, She's releasing new chapters on fantia now https://fantia.jp/fanclubs/4040. But old chapters are not available for free anymore.

Must be hard for the mods of this site, eh?

Honestly, it's not all that bad most of the time. We've got some good folks here.

Assuming she's the step sister, the likely chain of events is [Ayako meets Akira] -> [Akira introduces Ayako to Asuka's dad] -> [Ayako marries Asuka's dad]. Given that we're told Ayako used to be an ice queen, what happened between her and Akira on the way would seem to be extremely relevant to the currently situation - including the way she views her daughter's Oedipus complex/apparent lesbianism.

Well this new short chapter somewhat implies that Ayako might also starting to have weird feelings for Asuka, which is good news I guess. Though the cold means there's a possibility that Asuka might not get the chance to meet Akira or only briefly meet her and not realize she's a love rival (assuming that Akira is gay too ofc, which is still a mystery atm). Dunno if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

Message to the Mods: it's chapter 6+α, not 6.1:+α (how did it turned out this way anyway?).
