Thanks to both Doctor_Hoot and Red K. for responding.

I think I'll hang back for a few chapters and jump back in when I can read a lot at one time. That way I can see some progression without having to pause between each chapter and mull too heavily over any of the poor actions taken. And if the soda/popcorn thing is the worst of it, the binge reading should help me through the rest of it. Again, thanks =)

I'm sure some people just don't have the patience for a "high maintenance" character like Miyagi, but for everyone else the web novel should be a much more seamless experience. The translation by Ave Lilium (i.e. the good one) recently completed volume 3, so if you grab the epub files now, you can read in maximum comfort up to the Winter of the couple's third year (where graduation is just 3 months away).

Thank you for the links! I will def just read the novel since that seems to be the best experience (and I could use the reading lol)

Is there an update schedule for the TL? I don’t mind checking it whenever, just curious.

The update schedule is...hmmm...a bit irregular? You'll want to sign-up for emails on that wordpress to get updates when there's a new chapter.

There's also an Ave Lilium discord server. You can get updates on new chapters there, but it's a bit of a strange place.

I use the RSS feed since it has one as a wordpress. https://avelilium.com/rss. Much better than using discord IMO, unless for some strange reason you want to interact with other people

The bondage isn't that common, but the author still gets really into writing those scenes when they happen. Though that could just be me instead of the author. The latest update on avelilium is a good example of what I mean.

With all due respect, there should be a warning about not doing this irl. Human's oral environment is very dirty and rich of all kinds of bacteria, one can contracts tetanus for doing this kind of things when there is open wounds... (it's less risky if the skin is intact)

Chapters 381-382 are -really- sweet. Shoulda happened like 80 chapters ago but still, the authors amazing at writing emotional intimate moments.

Picked this up on a recommendation. I'm enjoying it.

I mean, I want to shake Miyagi by the shoulders, but I'm enjoying it.

They need to get back to their foot-licking roots, though.

I'm not sure if this is true, but I saw on an anime news account on Instagram that the light novel for this manga is getting an anime adaptation. If it's true, hell yeah! And if not, oh well. :)

Woah woah woah don't think I don't see that Anime tag is that fr?

Yep, it is. Didn't see that one coming, don't know if it'll be any good, but I'm definitely giving it a chance.

Wow I had forgotten how early the yearning started and what a yearner Miyagi is (even if it has tsun overtop of it). Must be Sendai's fault, cause the yearning beast that is Sendai keeps distracting me lol

Anime?? I normally don't watch anime but this is great news, now I won't have to wait months just for a single chapter update

The power of self defeating angst!

Is there even enough content for a 12 episode series??

From my understanding more than enough for a 24 episode series, since they can just adapt the original source novel. This manga is also an adaption.

Is there even enough content for a 12 episode series??

There are currently 387 chapters of the webnovel, and it's still ongoing, so there's enough content to fill so many seasons.

I doubt it'll ever get them though.

The real question is, can they get far enough in a 12 episode season for it to end on a satisfying note?

That hurt. But also showed signs of growing feelings.

Hmm, Miyagi reflecting on stuff and knowing what she did was in fact very rude and uncalled for. Miygai not realizing she already has caught the 'feels'...

Miyagi backstory history about her mother going out for milk and cigarettes then never coming back lol, Yeah I kind of expected that considering her personality, afraid to form long meaningful connections to people and mostly having superficial casual connection like whatherface (Maika). Though Sendai has her own superficial friendships as well I guess...Kind of ironically between Miyagi maybe (1-2) casual friends versus Sendai large group of (Casual) popular friends, their connection between each other is probably stronger despite the lesser total time spend together.

'It's like we are actually friends.'.....Miyagi you two are already friends (Though friends due to weird complicated situations/circumstances but still friends)...and hopefully very soon in the future couples/Gfs/lovers XD

Best part of being caught up with the Wn already is reading the reactions and analysis of people understanding more and more how these two unhinged yearning idiots in love are like

I heard that they were chronic yearners, that it was terminal, but man if this is only a glimpse of it I don't think I'm prepared to bear the full force of senyagi

This is some advanced yearning

I hope the anime uses the WB's artstyle, the hair is so fluffy.
