Haikei, Arishi Hi ni Saku Hanatachi e - Vol. 3 Ch. 12

[MangaDex]

 

[Beltaro]

The raw chapter.

Back-to-back lethal doses of fluffy and toxic yuri? Chapter 12 didn't come in halves so it's likely intended as a simple breather. But it's nice to be back to private time between Kasumi and Haruyo, along with returning the written exchanges. There's a lot of power in that little "I love you."

Speaking of power in little gestures, we get more hints of Kasumi's trauma that likely go over Haruyo's head. Her surprise at how easy it is for Haruyo to hug her, her hesitance towards committing to the future, her shifting feelings towards studying that were likely rooted in guilt. Though of course Haruyo's being almost too respectful now of Kasumi's space, even as she shocks Kasumi by slipping under her coat this time. Not that she seemed to mind. Haruyo might be a dork but she's gentle and considerate enough to take Kasumi's pain when the time comes.

There's a lot of winks given that Kasumi/Haruyo won't be just like Sayori/Mizuki, but we see their worth as role models. That classic fear of transient relationships common to Class S and old yuri dispelled with an exchange sounding suspiciously like a proposal. Though, with Kasumi turning more gay gremlin than ever, you know you need to bask in this happiness while it lasts.

Goddamn it that panel with the hug and Paruyo reaching into her coat so she feels her more is so good. I love this manga so much. Also, I kinda feel for Haruyo's dialogue about school friends still staying friends years after. I just hope these two get the happy ending.

 

[UdenEmpati]

Out: "I need to do this"
In: "I want to do this"

I nearly lost it when Haru slipped her arms under Kasumi's coat like that.
Kasumi's trauma is real and I just hope she can find a way to navigate through it that sees her standing tall (well, for her) on the other end, but I'll be damned if I don't have every confidence in Haruyo remaining by her side, if she has anything to say about it.

The frantic repetition of "I love you" is everything Kasumi needs, and I just hope she accepts Haru's showering her with affection and proving through her actions that Kasumi is worthy of that love, and grows to be confident in herself and to love herself, too.

A thousand, if not ten thousand, additional "thank you"s for all your work on this series.

It really was adorable how she reacted to the repeated text.

 

[Raknasuu]

I literally went and re-read the whole series yesterday. The previous chapter was so dense reading this one is giving me so much whiplash!

I want my girls to be happy! All I ask!

A relationship it's an act of faith. Hopefully they put the faith on each other and themselves to do this

 

[kkakasih]

WOW the fluff that we are getting is insane.

I guess we are getting some insane fucked up shit later

 

[N2O]

I really hope this is one of those where we go beyond the secondary education timeline. I wanna see what happens once they're in different schools for a while

 

[septuvariest]

Kasumi getting manhandled by paru... so stwong

 

[austinbrook]

Awesome chapter of course... so shockingly saccharine!! I'm somewhat surprised honestly lol. I think people are right to expect a harsh turn in our future, but Im pretty optimistic about out long-term prospects; I think they can make it.

I have to note though... she didn't say it back.

 

[shinmera]

I wish I could ever experience something that sweet personally

 

[sebaasdf]

My heart can't take this much sugaaar

 

[strawberrymilk0192]

Relieved Haruyo will stay in my heart forever, she looks so adorable.

Kasumi asking first if she wants to keep their relationship even after graduation made me feel a bit sad, like she didn’t want to answer right away to make sure Haruyo really wanted to. And when I read the raw, I didn’t even notice that she was obviously hugging her under her coat, how on earth did I miss that??

 

[zairaner]

I do not think I can describe the sounds that this chapter made me do. This might be higher dose of pure fluff than I ever experienced.

And this artist is an absolute god. That hug...how do they make it so sensual lookin.

While also making onee-san look like an absolute giant in this scene lol.

 

[onedumninja]

Do it!

Buy it. It's around $5 I think.

I love them and will support them till the day I die!!!

It's kind of funny how they don't know what their senpai are like behind closed doors. Imagine if they knew 0_0

 

[yuri_enjoyers]

It's so cute

 

[frayee304]

pg.6 is literally a marriage proposal. Too much fluff, keep it coming!!

 

[NinjaGoemon]

If any of y'all have enjoyed this series please please please at least visit the raws and do it some justice. The mangaka is rather downcast over the scanlation and feels bad about it.

 

[hamberserk]

Sooooooo cute
