He doesn't want their friendship to change... there were all these romance flags and all the blushing and awkwardness. I feel like the text box for that final message is oversized deliberately, but is it saying "Hi, this is me the author spelling it out for you, this is not the end-game." or is...

An interesting take. You're right that women aren't a singularity. You're also right that different cultures express romance, especially gay romance, in a different way (often those ways are built upon the idea that being gay is wrong and/or dangerous but still). That's not really what I meant...

Ok, so the meter fluctuates, it looked like things were going pretty fast being at 30% before.

Too true, even if people want to be better, it can be extremely hard to stay better. Relapse can come completely unannounced and undo a decade of work. Or just kill them.

Yeah the Taiga archetype is definitely a no go in this era. I tried rewatching Fruit's Basket when they remade it some years ago and I was like "holy shit, how did I not recognize how fucked up the boar-girl character is?" I don't think it's just rosy-glasses that keep me liking Tora-Dora...

I feel like nuance is hard for a lot of people. This woman clearly is down on her luck (and as stated by some other characters they think her personality leads to others taking advantage of her) but that doesn't make her "an invalid and untrustworthy woman" like... these are the people that...

The teacher is so unnecessarily gross and creepy that it actually completely turned me off to this series. If the fmc can't trust men and can innately tell when they're trying to get in her pants, that's on those men. Clearly she does fine with the mc, so the problem is that she doesn't have...

Because it often represents a fetishized and unrealistic view of how sapphic relationships work? Or because you think lesbians are gross? Because honestly on that first point I feel it, a lot of yuri is designed for the male gaze and created entirely to fulfill a fantasy. It can get really...

Warning sex talk, I assume anybody reading this series is mature enough to handle that since there's nipples in chapter one but still.

This premise is definitely solid enough for a full series. Showing their perspectives before their reuniting and the pain brought by an undue mourning, the possessed becoming accustomed and then later grateful to the soul now occupying a part of her, the difficulties resulting from having two...

I don't mind these long drawn-out series too much, although it is more junky than it could have been, junk food is still tasty. I'm just scared the milk will run out before the story wraps and we'll get that rushed axe-volume. So like, eight to ten chapters to wrap up the arcs with every girl...

It's a little bit humorous that the only trans rep you would see in a series like this is as a throwaway character. Where them being trans is just to skip the jealousy arc. I don't know if I would say it's "going too far" like, what difference does it make why they are dismissed from the story...

Yeah, I really highly prefer slow-burn romance. This isn't slowly burning though, it feels more like this series doused the flame and set the wick aside for later. For about half of the existing chapters. I'm usually the "let them cook, give it time" but like, you are still cooking right? Idk...

I feel like this is the weakest couple, but it's still cute. I want more of the teachers though, I really enjoy their dynamic.

I don't even understand how it is possible to be this over.

The grandma is drawn cute. How old is she supposed to be? She's drawn hunched over, so I assume she's a bit up there. But her skin looks super smooth, and her eyes are still sparkly. Edit: Some people in this thread are saying this is an older man and now I'm unsure. Hanaki is a unisex, but...

Feels like a nice stopping point, no massive loose ends. This series was very good, though I suspect the TLs were a big factor there. It's crazy to me just how many TLs still use words like so having that not show up at all was impressive. It's a little funny how I can be impressed by something...

Maybe this is going to go the "coaching" route. Also yeah the observatory thing is just manga being manga. Hell the girl has a chauffer, I've literally never seen somebody have a personal driver for a kid, and I've known some rich-ass people. It's played up to make sure there's some kind of...

I'm not going to make a reddit account just to write out a work stories post. I've already told most of the story anyways. It was a truckstop out in rural America. I worked in the kitchen. Most of my coworkers were crazy, the ones that weren't didn't last. I lasted because... well, I thought I...

"Hello coworker. Listen, my sister died when I was a kid, and that trauma made me a hag-loving connoisseur. Can I call you big sis instead of your name? Including at work? In a... very platonic and not-at-all sexualized manner?" You know it sounds weird as hell, but I used to work at a place...
