Haikei, Arishi Hi ni Saku Hanatachi e - Vol. 1 Ch. 3

This is really so much better than the premise would have me believe.

And I'd fallen in love with the premise.

 

[byzantinesoul]

what should you do? go talk to your girlfriend of course!

 

[youdontknowwho]

This is some serious exquisite yuri. Every single page exudes elegance.

 

[Beltaro]

I'm obsessed with page 9. The way it gradually reveals more of Onee-sama, how the art changes from minimalist and abstract to detailed and realistic yet at the same time becomes more idealized as Onee-sama changes from human to the embodiment of roses. The way the narration boxes start narrow (really annoying to typeset btw but thankfully I found skinny words) and widen as Kasumi gets more glimpses of Onee-sama behind the letters. Yet at the same time this could be seen as Kasumi's own interpretation imposing on the space occupied by the real Onee-sama, what Kasumi is afraid Onee-sama might be doing to her.

Also the rest of the chapter is pretty good too I guess. That's the last time I'll have to infodump in the credits for a while but I always like giving slightly more cultural context.

 

[KZO]

So Haruyo is actually taller than her, neat.

 

[Lowfyie]

10/10 work with this one, and by "this one" I mean the series as a whole.

And I know I'm not everyone who will be reading this title, but I absolutely adore and enjoy the contextual info dumping;
so if you ever feel compelled to do so again--whether "required" or not--know that at least one person will be happily reading your words left in the digital pages of this book called the Internet.

 

[Nevile]

The protagonist is so silly, I love her.
Also the art is exquisite.

 

[hishokos]

This a grade A expression

 

[Kamui]

[...] translators lie to you.

How dare you!

Great work as always! I have nothing of value to add beyond: I can't wait for the next chapter!

 

[WhereTheYuriAt]

I'll take the next chapter now, please.

I need it.

 

[N2O]

Probably the most interesting new yuri manga that has popped up in a while. Or, well, I suppose how it progresses in the next chapter or two will show what direction it's really taking-- still has a chance of self-destructing. Here's to hoping it stays good!

 

[irwen]

So good!!!

 

[AssassinCat4]

I love this manga so much. There is something inherently romantic about it

 

[yanderecoverl]

Finally, that didn't take long at all!

 

[HoodedHero007]

Yeah, this has got to be the most sapphic thing I've read in quite a while. I think I've read gayer things in that time, but this takes the cake in terms of sapphicness, if that makes any sense.

Yeah it's a great composition. The roundness of the last panel transitions the set from rigid to organic. Leaving the page off on a "natural" note. Same way their set up is moving from dignified pen pal to "bear with me here I got something for you!"
