When I was a kid I used to wonder why so many people's grandpa's died before their grandma's (never knew mine). When I learned most had 10+ year difference between them it was such a shock!

That's all to say Gran has another 12 years (maybe more?) to live the life she wants with a lover who truly appreciates her!

Mmmh this manga‘s really lovely! Thanks for scanlating it!

I love her relationship with the fashion student, the way her husband‘s portrayed is great as well.

The push to treat markèd age differences between adult partners as somehow wrong is a fairly recent phenomenon. That push is primarily based in the desire of older women to remove competition from younger women, and secondarily in the desire by younger men to remove competition from older men. The argument seems always to be “Ewww!”, which is just never very good.

The argument is usually "Hey, maybe men shouldn't be snatching women straight out of high school when they're all nice and impressionable so they can get themselves a bangmaid that wholly depends on them"
Calling it gross is just a lot easier though, because yeah, that is super gross

Since I see the pseudo-moral objection raised when, for example, the woman has already been quite economically successful for a few years, you've plainly mischaracterized the argument.

As I said,

sad I'm only discovering this manga from a Tumblr post where someone put the tweet of the Mangaka stating that this manga will end by the next chapter due to the lack of promotion and interest in the genre of old lady yuri.
I kind of like this new take on much older woman yuri since it's a different take on the genre.
Thanks for translation!
