Oh my god I absolutely love this development, Itsuki Kuro is seriously the queen of yuri. I have never seen this kind of plot development handled so well. Given that this series is basically a classic harem, usually at this point it goes back to another 20 chapters of frustrating status quo but she managed to thread the line where progress is made, the girl people are rooting for isn't hurt, and the dynamic is changed in such an endearing way. I was worried the story would pivot to just a monogamous romance with Nanao as the love interest which is cute but loses what makes this series special but she was able to make both Nanao fans and poly fans happy. I am daring to believe in the poly ending. And its so so rare to find a friends with benefits storyline that's so wholesome and sweet, I think this is cuter than if they got together, I love this so much. Now my ultimate dream plot line is Asumi getting Nanao into her brothel hobby too and them going together.
Also, no one manages to capture the feeling of sexual tension and anticipation so well, she might be the GOAT of hot sex scenes. Like she is one of the few artists that understands that the understated sexiness of panels like this can be hotter than a page of explicit sex poses:
I love everything about this manga so much, no one does it like Itsuki Kuro.
