No Blastaar is right it's all good. Although I'm not sure how to take being called a stuff donkey with a nail stuck in his ass.

I know this was an important chapter, with some powerful emotions. However I can't get past the question; Why was the sugar in the refrigerator?

To keep the ants out of it.

Huh. That makes sense, I guess. I've never heard of it before though.

Our sugar is kept in the refrigerator, to keep the ants out. Seriously.

I don't doubt it. I've just never heard of it. I guess we just never had that trouble before. Which is weird, because we have terrible ant problems, they just leave our sugar alone.

So her ex was 2 years older. My guess is they broke up when her ex graduated, bet the ex pulled the traditional Class S yuri trope of "well can't be gay anymore time to find a man instead" bs...

That or the classic "We were just fooling around!! Who i really love is rando-kun who i was also dating when i was dating you!!"

I hate the whole all girl school just playing love games trope. It's like the manga author reassuring the readers; "Don't worry these girls aren't really gay, they just have limited options. When they graduate they will properly date men".

I mean, the entire point of it appearing in contemporary manga is usually about how harmful and outdated that mindset is and how it's hurt the main characters, and to contrast the love of the main characters, which is usually shown in some way to be different. Like, that's a relic of Class S works, it usually shows up specifically to rail against it.

While I admit recent yuri seem be moving away from the whole love games trope, the nasty buisness still rears it's ugly head, from time to time. I don't know about showing the trope being hurtful, but I do see manga authors starting to show it as wrong thinking. A balm for my yuri skeptic heart.

I don't doubt it. I've just never heard of it. I guess we just never had that trouble before. Which is weird, because we have terrible ant problems, they just leave our sugar alone.

That was totally my reaction upon seeing that page too: "Who the fuck keeps their sugar in their refrigerator?" I guess I've just never had ant problems.

When I lived in Florida we kept a lot of stuff in the fridge that I never did prior. Sugar was one, so was cereal and bread. Sometimes to avoid bugs, like with the sugar, and others to avoid mold, since the humidity was so bad stuff like bread would go bad in less than a week otherwise. But till then I'd never seen such a thing so I thought it was weird at first too, lol

Maybe it's a regional thing.

Eeyore was the only one in that story I could ever relate to.

I get it. I'm totally Eeyore when it comes to yuri. I have to (over) compensate for my hypersensitive yuri goggles, or else I'd be pairing girls every time one asked to borrow a pencil from another. I just can't get the image of the tail nailed to my ass out of my head.

Edit: I've been burned before by a yuri suddenly taking a WTF het twist.

I’ve gotta say, that sounds like an exciting, albeit exhausting, way to read manga. I totally get feeling that frisson of yuri, usually in side characters, in patently non-yuri manga. But I try to let the overall genre/tone indicators determine my expectations for future developments in a series.

Like, in this one, with chapter titles like “First Kiss” and “Second Kiss” (titles that accurately describe the contents), I’m as sure as sure can be that a het swerve is Not Gonna Happen.

You mean.......
There are people predicting a het swerve, of all things, in this manga??

Not quite that, I think (I'd have to re-read myself to be sure), but more general lamentation that the yuri-girls-school trope hypothetically allows for the "lesbian until graduation followed by het marriage" outcome in any yuri story.

Although references to the trope itself continue to appear (in YagaKimi, for one), I don't recall any recent stories where that was the actual outcome for the main plot.

But Comrade johnb is rather a worrier.

I am. No argument here. I've seen plenty manga authors stab yuri in the back for no reason.
For the the record, not even I could worry about a het apocalypse in this story.

It's difficult for authors to depict a heterosexual relationship without at least one man.

Yes, but I read yuri manga for the yuri relationships.

I was making a joke. It's unlikely that this manga could turn towards a heterosexual romance because there are no men currently in existence.

Well you can’t call yourself a bestfriend if you just open the door and let yourself in lol

I'm getting diabetes. This is too sweet. Also this isn't gonna help Micchan with her big gay crush on both of the main characters, poor girl, I've been there.

Miyuki-sensei, hear me out, how about an all-out party? I wouldn't be mad ...

I might be reading this wrong, but it feels like the final line of the chapter is Ayane-chan's internal dialogue. I hope this is the case, personally, as I think the last few chapters have done a great job of showing how much she cares for Sana. Having that explicitly confirmed through her internal thoughts is very satisfying.

I think if it was just Micchan walking in on them, Ayane wouldn't even bother stopping at that point. She'd continue as a display of dominance lol

Darn. I was hoping they'd go all the way.

...

Yes, I'm that lewd.

You know it's true love when she isn't turned off by your weird panties. Too bad they couldn't do it in the end.
For a second I thought that Micchan's penalty would be kissing Ayane or something like that.

Gud shit
