This Is my favorite Gl,I love how different he is from the other Gl. The people who complain are the ones who don't even bother to read and prefer citrus

Unironically great growth from shima. At the beginning of this story, the most she would’ve reacted to a confession would’ve been “huh weird let’s ignore that” but instead she’s choosing to face it head on and grow into someone who can properly acknowledge adachi’s feelings

Peak manga, extremely slow of a slow burn and has insanely detailed characters that apparently most people are still able to understand seeing as how the ratings so high. So glad to see that despite the illiterate dumbasses who just think this is obsessed girl and sociopath manga.

 

[Youseffff]

thats was excpected and unexcpected reaction..

They're both freaks honestly, the comments saying they'd never have anything healthy are definitely correct. I'm here for it.

I see two factions in this comment section. One who hates this and one who loves and explains why its good.

I understand WHY its doing it, and I do not mind it having high ratings. However, its also making the characters hard to like. It really does require somewhat deep introspection in how things are changing and its a bit hard to do since I do have a life outside of reading manga and will probably forget parts of it in between, not a bedridden weeb like I used to be. If they made the growth just a little more evident then it would've been easier to handle this and not into annoyed and confused territory every chapter, just a hit would've been good. 8 is a fine rating. Its good but could've been done better.


Oh bdw, I read citrus many years ago. I did like it. I think its good. Not the best ofc but it was one of the first yuri I read and it gave me good feelings.

Also, I skipped the spoilers some people shared here, but I hope it ends well. If it doesn't for some damned reason, please reply and let me know.

EDIT: Writing got better later on, good

It baffles me how people still manage to mischaracterize Adachi and Shimamura this far into the story (thinking about the people on page 1), it's like the whole introspection thing (that's all over the manga) flew over their heads, so I want to offer my own take as I love the books, being my favorite among all I've read.
There's honestly not even much to explain, both of them are broken people:

• Adachi became the way she is because of her parents. She didn't get the love she needed during her childhood, as she became closed off and thus socially awkward she never managed to get friends who'd support her. No one ever showed interest in her, not even her own parents. Her only purpose in life was her job and school, then one day everything changed because of Shimamura, the first person to make her feel things she hasn't felt before, to add some color to her life, her catalyst to finally change. If you want spoilers about the whole parent ordeal, it's kinda emotional:
  • Their marriage was not out of love, Adachi wasn't born out of love either, the zoo incident also happened because of this.
  • Her mom really regrets everything and has Adachi promise that she will not turn out like her mom.
  • Her mom wants to mend their broken relationship. Signified by her gifting an elephant plushie to Adachi through Mashiro (the exact plushie she wanted back then and she realized it too), she placed it in their bedroom alongside their other plushies which shows that she shares this desire too.
• Shimamura's case is different, on the surface she's the complete opposite of Adachi. She has a great family that has always treated her with love, she has always had friends, a person with purpose as she has a lot to live for. But if you look under the surface what you find is a broken person who, in reality, lacks purpose in life, who simply goes with the flow as it's the easiest way to live, who simply does not care what happens and hasn't cared for a very long while, and when she tried to care it didn't last. Then one day she meets Adachi who essentially barges into her mundane and grey life, giving color to it, slowly changing her, making her find purpose in caring.

A therapist is not the answer to everything and may not even work when your issues are so deeply rooted in you, sometimes you need to find that one person who gives you purpose and finally heals your broken soul. This is exactly the whole point about this story, always has been. Just 2 broken girls finding purpose in each other.

And if you want even more spoilers related to both girls, they are destined lovers, meant to find and be with each other even in death.

I've recently finished reading the LN, SS and vol. 99.9, and the only thing I have to add is that Shimamama is such a goated character, being her who gave Adachi's mom the push she needed to start fixing her relationship with Adachi, and also the sleepover in Adachi's house
