From what someone said on discord, (I think it was someone from the scanlation team but I don't remember who for sure.) this wasn't Yuri. This was just pure friendship. (Unless that's part of your head cannon then forget what I said )
Either way, it was the story that dragged on for me. There were some good parts here and there but other parts just felt slow.
It could be I'm just losing interest in the story as a whole but if you're still enjoying it, don't mind me. Enjoy yourself.
