Finally finished after reading the initial chapters' fan tl's of over a decade ago, and I can finally move on. Uhm. It's... not very good. I will say, though, I was only motivated by curiosity to read this, because I had this in my "Plan to Read" for ages, and was glad it was completed...

LMAO. Seré sincera, Kei y Suzu nunca me cayeron bien como pareja (no soy muy fan del tropo de "emparejar a los sobrantes", y éstos dos son claro ejemplo de ello... y AL FINAL de la serie original, sobretodo) y de repente la autora PIENSA que puede convencerme que estos dos, que nunca realmente...

Tbf, I think in this specific series, it's a little bit nuanced. Sure, I also don't agree how this specific chapter "resolves" the issue, it's a very serious situation that needs more thought to be resolved than simple hugs and a chat with the abuser for them to "get better"... but you also have...

Look, I have been enjoying this series so much, and so dearly... and I know that grandmothers like this as a trope and what not (especially coming from wealthy backgrounds) but I'm like, "BITCH?!" because I saw this coming from miles away considering the... thing... that happened in the...

Man, I dunno, but I don't see how this manga series "became another shitty shoujo", and that's a little mean of a remark, lmao. I mean. Reading through ch 7 and 9 (vol 3), I just saw a typical shoujo with some clichés here and there... but with the added layer of Aoi (the FL) being paraplegic...

Wow, casi un año Muchísimas gracias por continuar :worry: Tengo como que los recuerdos vagos, pero me hace cuestionar sobre el rollo de esta maldición (y doble, aparentemente). Una vez más, el rollo de los forasteros no bienvenidos en Kumade (me imagino que una maldición aplicada por los...

I don't want to badmouth the TL group behind this, tbh, because they usually pulled great translations despite... some choices they have made within the years, but this was a thing that they sometimes did with series that often had chapters that were over 40 pages long - to divide them in small...

I just finished this and decided to dig a bit in what's the current status of this series. Found this tweet from 2021 https://x.com/natakokone/status/1461206515126181889 that basically explains some of it. So, Kokone Nata has been also currently working in Play It Cool, Guys (Cool Doji Danshi)...

I very wish this series, at the end, let these women to find their own self-worthiness is something just beyond finding love (even though I am here for the Seiji and Megumi relationship sailing off w/o baggage from their families), because Marika, to me, sounds like a very sad person - maybe not...

"Well, you were that started in encouraging that friend you just met in keeping 'fighting on' for a crush that has been found already dead in the water" :aquadrink:

I think part of that is because this is a culture thing, tbh. Something about not being to nosey in others' business, especially if Komomo and Megumi JUST met the woman in question. It's also very cliché, ngl, to build it up for a reveal that "omg, so this is THAT one person" (for Marika and...

Ah, I see who really cemented that way of thinking on Matsui. Yeah, yeah. I see... (is this projection what I am seeing? jfc...) Fuuuck, Matsui's sister just plain suuuuuuucks.

For those that may not know, Akimi Yoshida kiiiinda? intersects Umimachi Diary with Lovers' Kiss, a short series she drew and released in 1995, that also happens in Kamakura and I think some outlets (specifically after Utagawa Hyakkei came out, a few years ago) mention these two are part of a...

I kinda knew that "Haruka" was misleading, because it's a very gender neutral name these days, lmao. Sure, it's "feminine" and looks like traditionally "feminine" still at this point, but at this point of time and tons of manga read or anime watched, you know that "Haruka" is also a name that is...

I'm a bit "I'm sorry ma'am, and while your bf is an as*hole of a two-timer, you were, unfortunately, the 'other' in this case, so :meguupog: " but also, "b*tch, what's your problem??? I would've dumped him on the spot when I found out, or are your insecurities about your 'young years' and your...
