The usual scenario in this situation (in fiction, anyway, and occasionally in real life) is that guys are seeing these amazing-looking women and shooting themselves down before even asking -- "This girl is obviously out of my league" and so on.
I'm not sure if the relationship is more serious, or if they're just more serious people; the trouble with Haruka and Yuu's relationship is really that they're both idiots.
Miyu deserves all the love in the world.
I'm also endlessly amused by how much of these are just a cross-promotion for whichever spirits come up in each chapter.
Sweet, if slightly unsettling.
(It's a myth that all the starlight we're seeing is from long-dead stars. There are some that may have burned out while their light was traveling, yes, but most of the sky that's visible to the naked eye is just too close — we're not seeing more than 10,000 years...
Why are people saying she'll be wasted out in the sticks? First, Komi's out there twice a year, and second, it's all but spelled out that she's going to be going to Komi's school come spring.
("Same school outside the prefecture as my cousin" -> the reveal that the cousin is Inaka.)
Now...
To be fair, Ai and Rina are very easy to ship together, even just from appearances; the fact that (in the game, at least) the Rina-chan board was Ai's idea gives a lot of closeness to them.
This is why Kozue is so great.
The Cinderella Theater comics showcase some other stuff -- like genius-level cat's cradle and being able to solve Rubik's cubes -- but she's very much the type who's spaced out until she suddenly isn't.
Chinatsu really does get along well with Hamabe and his mom (who I suspect to be Princess Otohime — if so, Chinatsu's trip to the Dragon Palace certainly went better than Urashima Taro's), and that she's using water spells seems to indicate an affinity there — but she also gets along well with...
Going back through this, I'm really impressed at how subtly the mini-robots observing everything were foreshadowed before the last page's reveal. There's a couple of fish-eye lens shots leading up to it — a camera in the car, and then again in the restaurant — but they're low-key enough that you...
Atsumi is always so great. Even though her core is just the tired old lesbian molester trope, somehow, making that a middle-schooler and giving her the weird "mountain climbing" euphemism somehow strikes me as hysterical. (The fact that she's practically the only idol who isn't mooning over...
Really, guys, if "filler" is just too painful for you, find a different series — we're on chapter 267 here, and you really should have caught on to what the author is doing by now.
I am deeply, deeply comforted by this evidence that Risa doesn't "flirt and use [her] own charms" at her dad.
(Also, hyper-daddy's-girl and hyper-mama's-girl seems like a combination we should be seeing more of.)
