Now I feel stupid for not making the connection after seeing the same profile pic and name both here and under some of my favorite stories over on royalroad

I get that people have different values and that not everyone has the same views as I do. That being said, I can't imagine how this wouldn't lead to a fallout in one way or another. Even if they forgive each other it shouldn't automatically make them best friends again that act as if nothing...

Honestly, for me it's less about forgiving and more about the fact that both of her friends destroyed a lot of goodwill and trust. I personally wouldn't feel comfortable spending time with them or opening up to them after what they've pulled. So if this doesn't at least end with an awkward...

The atmosphere probably won't change much but we're pretty close to the point where plot happens and stuff gets revealed. At least if I remember correctly, it might take a few more chapters to reach it. And while the story definitely feels like torture porn at times it's not just bad luck on her...

She probably only learned magic after they met and since she already lost her arm when they made their bond the wound most likely healed before Elis was able to use healing magic.

Honestly, I feel her. If you're not very ambitious the whole "where do you see yourself in 5 years" and "why are you the best option for our company" just feels like a drag.

Honestly the first thing that came to my mind when Hinako made that small explosion with the flasks was that you could theoretically suffocate her by simply burning away all the oxygen in the immediate vicinity. Though that obviously wouldn't help with the save point

You really don't understand what I'm trying to say, do you? You use your claim that "reproduction is the only purpose in life" to explain social interactions between humans but at the same time hide behind "it's just a scientific fact" when someone tries to make you aware of the ethical and...

Right, concerns that you openly discuss arguments that support eugenics is just me being fragile. I'm sure the fact that scientists have to consult ethic boards to get their research approved is just another case of "childish emotions" that hinder true progress. I didn't mention all of this just...

I only just realised that they're their own branch with Hinako as it's head. I kept wondering why Elis should become head of the clan after Hinako's death but now it makes sense. Maybe a translator note for "anego" would be appropriate since it's probably not as well known as stuff like...

Humanity survived until now because enough people reproduced. Not all. If you look at history there are plenty of people who didn't have children - be it because of biological reasons, religious reasons or simply because they didn't want to. Not to mention that if you claim that the only reason...

For a moment I thought she would confess while sleep talking

She has failed the university entrance exam once, she's been out of highschool for one year. And in case you haven't heard of it: people become mature somewhere between 18 and 21, which is why in some countries you can still be sent to juvenile court if you're 18 but don't have the mental...

Ever heard of parental love or even basic respect? If you decide to have children you are responsible for providing for them. Of course they have to become independent at some point but she's only been out of it for less than a year, she has a highschool diploma and they are clearly not hurting...

I agree that Mei probably just wants Yuzu as a safe space but switching from active role to purely support isn't always easy. It's easy to say "I just need you to be there for me" but accepting that this is the only help they can provide is something that a lot of people struggle with. Yuzu...

The only thing that I see is Yuzu getting steamrolled by Matsuri because she doesn't have a spine. And Matsuri wasn't there during the discussion nor has Yuzu told her anything about it so she probably just thinks that Mei did something that didn't alleviate Yuzu's concerns. We already know that...

It might have been better if she had phrased the last part of the argument better. Yuzu is clearly in distress and is trying to work through her issues, she knows that it's on her and not on Mei. Mei basically telling her "Get your shit together before you become a problem" doesn't exactly help...

Usually not a fan of this trope either but I feel like it's somewhat justified in this case. They spend several hours in wet or at least damp clothes with only a roof over their heads. It might have been pretty warm before but rain showers can cool down the air quite a bit and in wet clothes and...

Except he didn't "earn" her, he never even asked for that engagement in the first place. For him she was just another tool that high nobility used to try to control him. And we know for a fact that Euphylia was eager to fit into whatever mold was assigned to her so his assessment isn't even...

I don't think a real Holy Grail even exists. The whole concept of "a blessing given by the goddess of discord" is pretty abstract and basically only fits the specific scenario of the operation that it's a code name for. There isn't really any need to introduce a magic object into the story at...
