Reee!! This ch was drawn with so much intense, and that made everything so much better! I’m both glad that they sorted it out, but at the same time very sad... i wish she could have gotten a smooch at least from what we saw from the cover so that Izumi could at least be a little happy and closure .°(ಗдಗ。)°.

They are always so intense with that usual expression while their mouths open wide. I feel like they always shouting with each other. Like pls... just relax guys and speak softly.

Anyway, I hope this Izumi arc is finished. What happened to Kurokawa-Nanaki pair, huh? Truly Useless Princesses.

Page 19 hit like a hammer.

Page 20 hit like a few hammers more.

(And the funniest thing is: only when I reached these two pages, I realized I'd been unconsciously identifying with Izumi all along the chapter. Duh to me.)

Ugh! The useless lesbian, Nanaki, is lying to herself, but at least she told the truth to Izumi. Hopefully Izumi realizes that Nanaki doesn't realize her feelings/is lying to herself and Izumi helps Nanaki embrace her true feelings for Kurokawa.

Well al least she was sincere with Izumi and right off the bat reject her.

For now she realized ONLY, that she wants to be her most important person, and NOT, that she wants to push her down, tear of her clothes, and do sexy things to her. I guess, THAT realization will come in another 10-20 chapter.

So very Adachi of her.

The "very best friend" got me real good

No amount of intentional comedy can even come close to this masterpiece
10/10 comdey done by God's grace

Is "very best friend" the new "gal pals"?

my main gal just shooting down every and all ships in one fell swoop, just a god damn carpet bombing, efficient as fuck, there were no survivors

"please give me smooch to be happy and have closure" lol like wtf

I was at Kure, in '45...

"Why are they shouting so much? This is so dumb and over the top!"

Yeah! How dare these teenage girls with raging hormones get overly emotional when they're put in emotionally difficult situations!

Wait...

This chapter probably could have been really good if it didn't go so overboard. I don't want to say it "took itself too seriously," because it's a serious moment, but yikes...that was kinda hard to read, and not in a good way.

And now that Nanaki has gone and said she just wants to be Kurokawa's bff we're stuck between a rock and a hard place where if she does end up loving her it will be even more shitty to Izumi and if she doesn't, well, she doesn't.

Izumi knows it's bullshit, the whole reason she confessed it's because she knows Nanaki fell for Kurokawa, and that bff line confirmed it for Izumi once again I think

This chapter is overdramatic? At least for me. There's a lot of shouting going on, and it sucks that Nanaki just wants to be Kanade's number 1 gal pal. Disappointing.

And also, I honestly kind of like how Kanade looked before the makeover. It's dorky and charming before, now she just looks generic.

youre right, teens are known to be peak mature and rational and not drown in a glass of water, v unrealistic

why do people keep taking this blatantly unconvincing claim at a face value seriously

Chapters like this make want to race to the forums and see the Yuri Rage.

With this, Scums Wish, and Nanashi No Asterism, we are getting alot of these Just Friends confessions it seems.

Anyone got insight on the translation of that "very best friend" thing? It strikes me as the kind of thing that originally meant something abstract and hard to rephrase in English.

But mostly all I care about is the good friendship going on here and the nice work on Nanaki's character. You can see her accidentally get Izumi's hopes up and then almost immediately act to clarify.

(Also remember, Izumi trying to disguise her own crush is the SOURCE of the whole "my feelings are just friendship!" idea)

Finally, I've found another sensible person in these comments.
My brother is still in high school and him and all his friends are completely mature and never get emotional, loud or dramatic when faced with conflict ¯_(ツ)_/¯

yes frick THIS MADE ME CRY

I think comparing teenage girls and boys is not the right comparison to make because we are not the same lol. I’m a teenage girl and reading this felt so strange because it just didn’t seem like two real people interacting with each other. It seemed to be drawn deliberately to make things over the top. Now this is just my opinion of course but just my two cents.

Just friendship? With both of them? Then I guess it's time for the JJKS Izumi/Kurokawa to throw off the bowlines and sail into the rainbow horizon!

People saying this is "overdramatic" and not "authentic teenage experience", when I personally saw a lot of this scream crying arguing in my high school. Just because you personally didn't experience it doesn't mean there aren't any teenagers that act like this, and unfortunately for me I met A LOT in my time as a teen. (Also you guys do realize you are reading fiction right? Of course it's gonna be over the top...have some fun.)
