I'm guessing Sara moves on land using her tail like a snake uses their body?
I'm kinda picturing like how hydralisks in the OG Starcraft cutscenes would move, if anything.
Interesting to consider, especially since she appears fully unhindered by being out of water.

Anyway thanks for the chapter. Will be interesting to see if Shinomiya's just protective, has other (less wholesome) ulterior motives, or what.

Who do childhood friends always gotta lose? 😭
i love childhood friends story's the most and always want them to win BUT not every story with them is good and at a certain point if you spend over 10 years (not saying this just in general) or more and NEVER make a move unless you see them start getting close and become happy with someone else than at that point you deserve to lose

I'm not talking about this story in particular. The frustration had been piling up from before and this was just the trigger. Their friendship feels very business like anyway.

oh trust me i know and i wish more story's gave them a chance but anytime they use them it is mostly as a trigger (which i hate) or a reverse harem (which i hate as much as a harem)
oh and dont get me started on all the wishy washy FL or ML that wants to keep said Childhood friend as a friend while acting almost like a lover half of the time

I agree. Since you guys are on the subject, do you have any recommendations for this specific type of manga? No harem/reverse harem, childhood friend winning, no baiting, etc.

They are webtoon/manhwas tho. Are you fine with that? There are some mangos too.

Edit: I'll keep adding more as I find them. My reading library is scattered among many websites as I don't use the conventional ones so it's quite a chore. There are many I don't remember the title of/dropped somewhere along the lines but I'll scrounge thru the internet to find em. Hope this helped. :)
