TOXIC YURI!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

 

[UdenEmpati]

I do think it's still too early to call it as "Emma's simply screwing with Suzuran", but this is most definitely on the Toxic Yuri train (if the title itself and these first 3 chapters' hints didn't give that away already).

If I had to put my money on something right now, I'm thinking that Emma's quite attached/infatuated/otherwise obsessed with Suzu, and is simply using the Yuki Situation to pull Suzu into her own sphere and ...maybe isolate her and make her wholly dependent on Emma? There might be some backstory to Emma that involves a need for control. She's clearly adept at manipulation via her charm and appearance & mannerisms (we see that with the one transfer senpai in the first chapter, along with her overall persona at school despite only being in middle school) - so in light of that, the question for me becomes if there's something specific about Suzu in a history-sense for Emma that relates to a shared past of some kind, or if she's merely decided to go after her senpai, and afterward is where any relationship is built (for good or, likely, also for ill).

And Suzuran seems fairly ignorant of it up to now, though Nako catching on immediately means that at least one person is in her corner with an eye on the kouhai. (AND, it seems like Nako has a bead on Emma, implying some connection between them already. Past relationship? Nako being privy to Emma's past antics/escapades? She seems to know that Emma's got more going on that what is presented to others, and that is a wrinkle that I like, already.)
Suzu's just genuinely relieved to have some measure of distraction-based peace, given she's now sleeping better with this newfound relationship between her and Emma. Makes the undercurrent of manipulation on Emma's part potentially dangerous for Suzu in that "I trusted you!" fashion, but that also depends on whatever Emma's actual goals are.
(Crack Brain Theory says she's got a grudge against Suzuran for something in their past, and this is all elaborate revenge. Even More Crack Brain Theory says she has a grudge against Yuki, and is using Suzuran to get back at her.)

Only three chapters of an every-two-months series, so no way of knowing. And this is Yuama, so I really don't think any sort of trauma/drama is off the table for these two and the surrounding characters. But my corkboard and red string are ready, and I'm very excited to be going into this one from the start, after finding Summer years after the fact and having to suffer through that in solitude.



And, of course, thank you for continuing with this series and with the superb translation work.

Well, yes, it is definitely too early to decipher what Emma's (best girl frfr) intentions will be, but I do also agree it will be something tied to her past, after all, we got a lot of lore about Suzuran but nothing about Emma yet apart from "she likes to break people's heart"...

I do quite think it is 100% going in some toxic yuri route and I'm all for it!!!

And yes, knowing Yuama-sensei deep, rooted trauma is not off the table.

Emma's a fantastic character, and Yuama-sensei making her such an obelisk when we've gotten a whole lot on Suzu this early in, really elevates the contrast between them and highlights just how uneven their dynamic is, especially with Suzu being the senpai and thus ostensibly the "leading figure" of the pair.

And it definitely means that, the longer this whole "Enigma Emma" shtick continues, the more we can ascribe pretty much whatever feels convenient to Emma in terms of her motives and character to fit whatever theory seems appropriate to the moment.
I kinda hope we don't get any truth about her for awhile yet, because the longer she's kept a mystery alongside Suzu becoming more and more "known", the more tension can be shoved into the narrative. Usually I'm not into that, but I'll lean into the sentiment 100% for this author.

for page 21 and the galette thing, there are biscuits called galettes but a traditional galette is a main course used with buckwheat as a main ingredient due to the area of france that it originates from not having the richest soil for traditional wheat so they use the buckwheat flower instead and pancakes (well their original form crêpe which i recommend using salted caramel with) cale from trade/the alliance between Brittany (the area where galettes are from) and france, but traditional galettes have a mix of eggs, cheese, ham, tomatoes (sometimes) on them, and have their own machines that you can cook on

As long as no one dies it's still better than the previous work lol.

so if you make 'em but don't use the buckwheat from the French source, do you have to call 'em 'sparkling breakfast dishes' ?

they seem to be eating something called "wrap galette", seems to be like a chic dish

 

[Aile]

To me it just proves even more that she is in love with suzu, her last line can also means that if suzu is easy to manipulate, then she wont have a hard time making her move on from yuki and fall in love to her.

 

[ezzhead]

The manga started with "I'm depressed because I'm in love with my cousin" This was never going to be anything but toxic.

 

[registeredusername]

page 5 panel 1: "uh-yes..." alright or sure would sound better here
page 9 last panel: is confusingly worded as a whole
page 10 panel 1: "you're such diligent one" -> "such a diligent one"
page 14 panel 1: crashed out feels out of character
page 19 last panel: "popping out of nowhere" -> "popping up out of nowhere"
page 22 panel 3 : "work at a part time" -> "work a part time job"
page 31 last panel: "i guess that surprised both of you" is that supposed to be both of us?

that ain't how it's supposed to be eaten (well what the image is showing at least) but there is a variation called galette saucisse (literally sausage galette) where you have multiple galettes wrapped around a traditional sausage of the area with condiments (i recommend mustard) and it's quite good cause the sausage is more meaty than it is fatty

no, there's no region based obligations, it's a mix of ingredients the traditional peasant would've had on hand, and for salted carmel all it is is a mix of salted butter and sugar, just like Kouign-amann which is a cake with a lot of butter and sugar cause it's name literally translates to butter cake

I was just mostly making a "Champagne" joke, but I appreciate the mini histo-culinary lesson.

yea i picked up on it, but my home region is wholly underapreciated despite its beauty and our history and culinary products are a sense of pride but france itself has a lot of culinary stuff from the obvious champagne to cheese like tomme des savoie, abondance (where similarly to champagne has to come from a singular alpine town in south eastern france near Switzerland where the village gave the cheese its name), and stuff like pot au feux (literally a pot you'd cook over a fire) and there's the somewhat controversial (depends on who you ask) foie gras where you force feed a duck or goose till its liver is extremely fatty hence why it's called foie gras (literally fat liver) and when you look at it Brittany (the region the food this conversation started comes from) uses salt more often because when it was a country it didn't have a tax on salt due to its geography (it'd be weird for a peninsula to tax salt) and has led for a lot of our dishes being based around fish and similar stuff

Anyone reading this, I hope you have good health, and please pray for my recovery from cancer

"Watashi kara Senpai wa toranaide!"
Yeah, I'm expecting that in the future chapters.

People theory are wild but i was more a fan of the straightforward one like "TOXIC YORI??!?!?@!#!1?1!1??1!2!2"
