Ki ni Natteru Hito ga Otoko ja Nakatta - Ch. 160 - Feeling Blue

[MathMols]

Good now this girl hopefully give up on anything. Now we just need it to happen with the one Aya was with

 

[Orpheus7]

not Aya, Mitsuki.
It was back in chapter 150. Mitsuki's dealing with going through bands and not finding a group that clicks with her, and then she stumbles into that girl band where they're all super focused on socmed presence. Mitsuki kinda stops talking about her struggles with Aya during this time and withdraws a bit, but comes home late in that chapter while Aya is stressing over Uni Work, and Mitsuki's just really out of it and distracted and gets super clingy out of nowhere and glomming onto Aya. Aya thinks "something must've happened" but she decides she'll ask about it later (because Mitsuki only just got home and Aya's in the middle of important homework stuff), and then Mitsuki just hugs her from behind and gets affectionate immediately.

The final bit of the 4th page has Aya going "wow she's being spacy and now she's being clingy....THAT MEANS SHE'S CHEATING" and it reads like a throwaway gag that's just Aya being real extra with her jumping to conclusions--and it's promptly never brought up or referenced again.

But with the show that Mitsuki is stressed over happening, and Aya surprising her by showing up and Mitsuki having a "crash 'n' burn" moment, Mitsuki pulls back and they start avoiding one another more and more. So people latched onto that "SHE'S CHEATING ON ME" and assumed it meant Blue Yuri / a breakup was in the works.
And that was only exacerbated by the introduction of Shu, and now Rinko.

Wait?! There's allegations of Aya cheating 🤯? Since when ?

Also referring to Chapter 143 the first chapter of the time skip where Aya comes home and sees light in their apartment and assumes Mitsuki brought a girl over. What a weird gag that still throws me off till this day cause I'm sure a person doesn't jokingly assume their significant other is cheating out of nowhere but also Aya's vibe in that chapter (vibe being the best way I can put it) didn't seem positive. Of course seeing now, this chapter, Mitsuki and Aya are lovey dovey . They still havent talked about the band thing tho

Sooooooo what was the point? I know theres going to be some long form play happening here, like the piles of girls falling for already taken other girls form a youth band and reach the Budokan and confess or something but why even introduce Rinko as already having feelings for Mitsuki? I totally understand everybodys relief at the potential love rectangle being nipped in the bud but then why bother in the first place? Why not just make her a Koga stan instead? Making Rinko have an actual crush just leads to shit no one actually wants to deal with.

Unless we get a whole bunch of new couples because of it and the expanded Green Yuri cinematic universe begins.

Also makes it absolutely impossible to get invested in them when there is nothing there apart from "hey, you don‘t know me and I don‘t do anything and I spawned from thin air but I am in love with one of the leads, woe is me“

It isn‘t even like they have any wild relationship issues at all.
Author is going out of their way to show them be very physical and making the other their priority while being perfectly observant.
The lack of communication/walking on eggshells and Koga‘s personal issues are the main drama and the author makes that very clear. So I don‘t get why new characters have to be introduced as losers in love when they could be just some friends/fans/whatever- more so if the author actually intends to expand the green yuri universe.

that title is killing me

And I'm feeling goo-o-o-d blu-u-u-u-e

I’m so glad Mitsuki caught on to what was going on and rejected her.. many times, you have the protagonist being naive or being vague.. I’m glad that this was not the case either way.

Zamn, Rinko got a strong 'losing heroine' arc in just 8 pages. That's a good foundation for a new character. Arai is very good at character introductions; remember the arc that Narita joined the cast? And when we met Kanna? So good.

I like RInko. She's a tall Bocchi, and when she comes out of her shell it's going to slay. I could see her forming a band with Koga. She doesn't like to stand out, she's self-conscious about being tall, she hates when people suggest she become a model. But her interest in Koga could be the motivation to change or take a risk.

Sorry for her but it happens. Also, for those wanting women to stop liking our main two: that's not possible. Being in a relationship doesn't put a stamp on your forehead and these two are great people. Passes will be made and shots taken but Aya and Mitsuki always set things straight immediately either intentionally or, in this sad case, unintentionally. It's just how things go. Fun chapter.

These two new characters interest me; I can't wait to find out more of what role they'll play moving forward. I like her design also and the author potentially having some fun at all the dooming with her title choice and opening of the chapter only for it to end with the obvious: our couple being committed and chill. Could be meta, could just be coincidence but I thought that was interesting. I feel like most chapters have consistently reiterated that they're doing fine, so I don't think she can do anything else on that front. Looking forward to more!

da ba dee

I'm surprised nobody commented on "Mustang's rain" in the foreground at the end of the chapter, a nice little visual touch.

Socked me straight in the feels, it did.

 

[Tarage]

We're inserting a love rival for needless drama I see.

 

[greenyuriloverbecauseimcoollikethat]

She needs to meet the girl who likes Aya.

Easy solution(nothings that easy, I know, but I can hope for everyone to be happy).

YES
