I'm glad both Nene and Kanoko are both telling Sumika it's okay to be a little selfish with love. Trying to act in the best interests of someone else while denying her own interests has been slowly destroying her. This chapter gives me the impression Kanoko is well into moving on from her own...

I think Naoi is conditioned to see all relationships as a transaction of some sort, and now she's trying to figure out Kurumi's angle. After she noticed Kurumi pouting about the "some other person" comment, she's wondering if a relationship might be the 'payment' Kurumi is expecting. She wants...

Thank you! It's definitely one of the things that I'm appreciating about this story, taking an abstract realm of knowledge like gas giant atmospheric chemistry and making it into a domain that people live in and understand intimately as a means of survival. It's really cool. I've been involved...

Atmospheric science in MY yuri? It's more likely than you think. Sorry for the book report in the TL notes. Reading that section made me think of Gengen Kusano's quote in the Yuri Made Me Human interview where he said no one likes a dry-ass hard SF infodump, but they get more interested in it...

Good on Shizuku for being able to sever that relationship. It's hard work unwiring an abusive parental relationship, especially when there's someone there who will always be down to help you wallow in those feelings. It's a big achievement on Shizuku's point that she's able to allow herself to...

Ooh, industrial landscapes at work seemingly without human interaction are something else. Creates a strong, super romantic "alone together" vibe.

lmao at Sorawo jumpscaring herself by pounding on the wall

you say this as if Nene didn't intentionally and systematically blow up her personal and working relationships with Sumika by playing a manipulative romance game, then hid from the emotional fallout it saddled Sumika with for the better part of a year

I think Kanoko is slowly figuring out her own feelings. She is so attuned to Sumika's emotional state and needs in this chapter. I really think service is Kanoko's love language, and it's been understandably difficult for Sumika to realize that given that Kanoko's initial acceptance of the...

Shizuku talks real tough, but she's probably the biggest softie of the bunch. She's kinda trapped in the cycle of hating herself and finding reasons to justify that feeling. I think the others genuinely valuing her and encouraging her to value herself more are why Shizuku's more resistant to...

One thought I keep coming back to after this chapter is how 'maintenance' of the Endeavor Clan's culture and tradition require women to function as reproductive cogs in economically-prestigious jobs. The people whose jobs involve making economic and cultural decisions work in relatively new...

To your point about them already being in a hinge position, I like how the story so far (and this chapter especially) have had a lot of little things that have been illustrating the general conservatism of the setting. At this point, it's clear they're fighting the odds, so even when they get an...

Diode truly is a Real One. According to our translator, as of this chapter, roughly half of the first novel volume (of three currently published - a fourth is also in the works) has been adapted. The next update is scheduled for May 17. The first volume is scheduled for release on June 7, so...

Naori and Hinata are so coooool

Loving this manga, these first two chapters have really captured the feeling of visiting rewilded places.

Sorawo's got a good head on her shoulders by keeping up with her studies, 'cuz if she's gonna mess around with the folklore-based horror world it helps to be smarter about it

Glad Minami is in a situation where she feels loved and supported, even if she does have to spend most of her time babysitting three other brats

Even if Kurumi and Naoi don't have the healthiest dynamic it's still a vast improvement on Kurumi's home life. Holy hell

It may also be a question of pilot skill and comfort, flying wings do tend to be dynamically unstable. I'd guess that couples would typically prefer to fly safely within their comfort zones. But since Terra and Diode are both trying really hard to impress one another by helping the other get...

Love to see their trust in one another growing and it paying off with their catches, even if Diode does keep acting a bit squirrelly when they're back on station. Also, this chapter finally pushed me to go back and make some edits to chapter 1. First, we had just been letting the usage of...
