Kasane to Subaru - Vol. 5 Ch. 41

[Hicleric]

'twas a good thing to read these two chapters back to back, I'd be chomping through my fingernails otherwise

Even if there hasn't been much cute in this arc, it's still a strong read. I kinda wish we'd seen more of the brothers' fist-to-fist heart to heart, but I can see why it was skipped. Ultimately the story is about Kasane and Subaru together (not to say they don't have their individuality) and the focus of the story rightly remains on how they grow hand in ass hand. Hence, I imagine next chapter will have a strong heart to hearth between our loveable MCs (and a proposal plz?! ) that's going to be as much a tearjerker as a fluffy heartstopper

That first shot of Subaru on the bench was brilliant!

Man this manga can be so just... real, sometimes. This feels like a fight brothers could have, it feels true, ya know? Not even just about crossdressing, about any hobby that doesn't align to strict standards. It also feels like Subaru has justified reasons to finally defend himself and change things. It's just... so real and so good. I wish more mangas could be like this.

 

[DesertStorm]

Me reading the crossdressing manga: can't believe this author is forcing crossdressing...

You're right. I should've used legitimize.

I don't need to know what you think about this chapter, but what world would we live in if that's how we thought and couldn't express ourselves in public?

Pardon me for making a strawman like what this chapter did, but imagine this: an obese unshaven man in his late 40s wearing a thong, a microskirt and a crop top as a statement of rebellion to the status quo.

Would you respect their right to express themselves publicly? I find that hard to believe. We need to limit our personal expression in consideration of others. Yes, you could respect that, but should you?

How far should we take our tolerance? Give someone an inch and they'll take a mile.

As for me, I'm fine with it. I'm already numb to degenerate shit, but not numb enough to expose young folks to this.

yes. Like it’s not even hard? You just don’t be a little baby about shit that doesn’t effect you?

 

[DesertStorm]

yes. Like it’s not even hard? You just don’t be a little baby about shit that doesn’t effect you?

For a man like this: an obese unshaven man in his late 40s wearing a thong, a microskirt and a crop top as a statement of rebellion to the status quo.

That's kinda freaky. Normally, you'd find those folks in Folsom Street Fair...

Is there anything wrong with the Folsom Street Fair?

Yeah like it just doesn’t effect me? He’s doing his thing I’m doing mine. As long as the important bits stay covered it’s really not a thing? If he’s just living his life and vibing why should I CHOOSE to be bother by it?

Nope, it's just weird asf, but if you're into it, you do you.

You're trolling now. I'll definitely be bothered if there's children in the area.

Folks dress like that all the time. Men, women, whatever, as long as they’re not trying to scoop up the kiddos it literally does not matter. Sorry if you’re so sensitive but maybe you should work through some stuff if you keep obsessing over hairy men in crop tops

What about it is an issue to you for children to see?

Just so we're clear. An obese unshaven man in his late 40s wearing a thong, a microskirt and a crop top as a statement of rebellion to the status quo.

This is normal to you, huh?

Stop posting

 

[Kitsune_115]

Whew that was a great chapter. Glad he let out stuff too.

I don’t really see how that’s a problem. Also, you invented this straw man in the first place to take this idea to the extreme?

Kasane’s crossdressing is not even in the same atmosphere of “risqué” as what you’re suggesting.

Last chapter I was worried how big bro would handle Subaru's pushback, and while it went as I expected it still had a reasonable result. When you have someone dead set in their opinions, it's hard to convince them in one drunk argument. Especially a guy who is used to ignoring the opinions of others. Subaru reached a point of uneasy compromise and that's pretty good for the first battle.

Accepting that different people have different fashion styles and bodies. Yeah that's very normal to me.

Unpromptedly giving people shit because they wear something you wouldn't wear, or otherwise have a body that's different from yours, is a pretty strange thing to do.

I'll definitely be bothered if there's children in the area.

Children in the area bother you? What, does their height, age, or fashion style make you uncomfortable as well? Just leave them be please.

Congratulations, you have the exact mindset of the brother in this chapter.

Feels good to scroll down and see this

 

[Maddlong]

I thought this was a nice pair of chapters that would have been greatly served by a bit more depth between Subaru and his brother's conversation, it's nice to see mangaka get their opinions out there via their characters. And it showed that a lot of Subaru's problems stemmed from a toxically masculine household, up to him being pushed into a certain job that no one ever considered really talking to him about.

 

[Mocmeo01999]

Some of yall in here fucking stink of shit

 

[Acrelorraine]

All things said, it could have gone much worse and I expected it to. The brother probably doesn’t actually understand and probably isn’t entirely supportive, but may change his mind over time. That would be nice.
