Side ship really giving those visuals. The vibes are so good right now.

As far as the cliche allegations, I don't agree. I think very few manga, yuri or otherwise, deal with catching feelings in a situationship and what to do when it's over. Like, they both caught feelings, but Nagi needed to end for both of them. I think that actually tracks really well.

The school trip will be fun! There will be so much gay in their room the other two won't know what to do with each other.

This series skipped all the angsty, will-they-won't-they nonsense so typical of this genre and gave us peak. Now, it's swinging back around to those genre cliches and making us work back up to peak again. It's kind of like Sisyphus rolling the rock up the hill if he actually got it all the way up and then had to watch as it rolls back down the other side. Thanks, I hate it.
That what happens when you have the characters fuck barely a week after meeting when they haven't even come clean about their feelings. Its a fucking mess and you should have expected it, conidering the protagonist werent adults with the maturity/experience of having that sort of casual relationship.
What Im hating is that this stupid manga updates like once each 2 months and it doesnt even has that many pages. So how long are supposed to cling to this series before it ends? I dont think I can endure this for more than 2-3 chapters. I really wish it ends soon.

I will say I've never been so happy to be reading ~100 series concurrently that are all just me waiting for updates, so that I can just forget this exists until 2 months from now when it'll surprise me with another ~12-18 pages of "oh god this is going to hurt my heart again isn't it" and then repeat that all over again.

btw the series is monthly not bimonthly! it’s just standard to take a break the month before volume releases, and volume 2 came out last week, the same time as this chapter. the raws for the next chapter will be out september 27, and in the mean time we’ll work on the bonus chapter from volume 2 :hearts:

Noo! We're back to angst again!
Oh my, I just got to say that you‘re profile pic is exactly what I think of when I read your comment. 10/10, also let‘s hope this field trip can get them over this sleuth and we get to see them actually dating and not just get back together the end.

We are really heading that way ? Into the coward, useless lesbian arc ?
I'm frankly so annoyed about this.
How can an author have a couple of girls be useless lesbians when they literally already dated and even had sex? Like it's too ucking late to have them be all "oh, d-does she likes me?" You literally fucked of course she at least finds you a bit attractive!
It's so frustrating.

What Manatsu is unsure about is whether Nagi would want to become her girlfriend for real. She is afraid to ask Nagi out because she's afraid of rejection. And from her perspective, it would not be meaningfully different from rejection if Nagi told her she only found her attractive enough for sex. The idea that what they had wasn't as special to Nagi as it was to her is scary enough to discourage Manatsu from getting a straight answer.

As for Nagi, she explicitly set the limit as seven days so that they could stop before things got "complicated". Falling for Manatsu seems to be exactly what she was afraid of. On top of that, she could tell from the start that Manatsu was attracted to her. (Unlike Nagi, Manatsu wears her heart on her sleeve.) The issue is that she has convinced herself that Manatsu is just "mistaking this pretend romance for real love", and that Manatsu deserves "someone much better".

The series implies that Nagi retroactively analyzes her affair with Manatsu as similar to the way her former tutor exploited her younger self's feelings. We of course know that's totally unfair, but Nagi's self-esteem may be so low that the idea that she doesn't deserve Manatsu came first, and the reasoning came after the fact. She might have felt a bit guilty about hiding her own motivations from Manatsu when they started their affair, and it's possible her mind used that as the seed of the excuse for why she doesn't deserve Manatsu.
