Anata Mitai ni - Ch. 2

[Manko-sensei]

In summary, this is "Strictly Professional Yuri", right? It's important separating private life and business after all.

 

[Roodypatooti]

what we have isn't love

Sure, keep telling yourself that.


God this manga is so hot. From the subtle arm around her waist pulling her into the kiss, to the way she pushes her head down while she's eating her out, it's, just. I feel like Yuni-sensei is trying to give me some kind of heart disease.

Unrelated to the chapter, but I just realised the dark haired one has six fingers on the cover and I can't unsee it...

It looks unusual, but the top "finger" is her thumb. She curled her fingers and thumb around Kanna's arm instead of using a pincer grip with her four fingers and thumb. Her thumb seems a little long so maybe that's why it feels odd.

So happy to see the "To Be Continued" since the raws link only went up to ch 2. I can't wait!

It should be 3 long chapters (so I guess about 150+ pages in total), but the next one likely won't be out for a bit since each chapter is an individual volume she releases at events.

thanks for the update!

I love the trope of confused jealousy and history and tension and gratitude blending together and turning into love... so I NEED the author to stick the landing and have that actually be what occurs here. We could be looking at all-time peak, people! The second chapter shockingly went in the direction I wanted, so I'm optimistic...

(my bet is still that the love interest reveals she was indeed tricking her, the MC moreso gives in rather than directly falls in love, or both)

 

[Jamadhur]

Oh god this remind me of "Love thy neighbor" But much more sweeter, I love it!!!!

Yeah like, this entire chapter was a good example of how Kanna is a great networker and speaker. Someone who is fully capable of bridging the gap between colleagues and thinking of the management side of things.

Sakuragawa literally says it herself when they're still in the meeting, the proposal Kanna brings to the table are normally things Sakuragawa just has to do herself because she doesn't have someone who can take care of that side of the business for her. This combined with the flashback literally being about Kanna convincing everyone in their class of the work that Sakuragawa had done, and the way she immediately ingratiated herself with Onizuka by preparing a thoughtful gift shows that Kanna might not be the entrepeneur she wanted to be but is someone who is who is very good at greasing wheels.

Kanna may not have Sakuragawa's initiative or maybe even talent for designing but she has a great eye for things and is a great advocate for good work. Honestly while there's definitely going to be bumps in the road I can kind of already see Kanna leaving her job at this bigger company to start working at Sakuragawa's because they really do complement each other from a business perspective alone already.

Exactly, people management and networking skills are just as crucial as technical competence. It's a simple fact, but work involves dealing with real people with their own quirks at the end of the day.

But I don't see Kanna being able to see that unless the two of them see each other eye to eye. Yayoi's still too lovestruck, and Kanna's still too deep in her inferiority complex. Can't wait to see how the author's gonna untangle this emotional mess.

 

[Redrot]

They're really cute together. And hot. Lesbians are so cool.

 

[Rafalga]

Can't really say i'm %100 on board. The balance is off. By like 300 miles.But its too early so depending on what Sakuragawa actually feels / thinks, it might course correct. Just one of them being the boss of the other alone is making things highly weird for me.

 

[louloute0203]

Can someone with such feeling of inferiority can really solve them by pretty much sleeping her way to the top?

 

[itmealice]

god this is phenomenal

 

[JagdPanther]

Ah yes I too manifest a magical third hand to deliver my brownnosing gift

Yeah, that was weird.

I interpreted it as the mangaka didn't do a great job of drawing the lighter lines you see drawn when they intend to show someone making multiple gestures in one frame, like waving their arms back and forth.

 

[Tobesmgobes17]

Wow this is incredibly well written

 

[dazedaze1111]

damn having sex after deep talk so very good
at least this will avoid misunderstanding in the future by talking it ahead why they date each other
Kanna is simply too nice

 

[Turbotune]

Fascinating. They really have much to develop, and their relationship isn’t that toxic to begin with for once.
I hope we can get a longer story and make it slow-burn and sweet.

 

[Loliconi]

Absolute banger. Prob one of my favorite girl‘s love manga right now and it has only been 2 (quite long) chapters.

But this absolutely is very unhealthy already with how unbalanced their relationship is and Yayoi is clearly after something, going as far as to abuse their power dynamic.

There is support and positive reinforcement and then there is telling her to "use me and my standing to get ahead yourself“ as an immediate answer to Kanna breaking down.
