The controversial part isn't only about Stretch ending or the tracing scandal.
Don't forget that Shou is a popular hentai artist that draws het-loli with prostitution and other dark themes.
This manga might be very good. From the start the protagonist has feelings towards other woman (even if we don't know if it's one-sided) so I would say this is already a yuri, but it could end in a yuri couple, nothing or het.
I'm going to read it with that in mind so I can't fall for the classic trap. Maybe even without a yuri ending this manga could be good.
