I hope we don't get to much background on Mashiro, feel like these perpetual cycles can become a real rabbit hole.

we don't need a full lore-drop; I mostly meant that I wondered if we'd get background on Mashiro to indicate whether she has her own history, or if this is just "the way she is" - the way we have context for Yuni's cheating, for Fuuko's manipulation, and for Nanase's treatment of Yuni by way of her history with Yuki.

Also - she went after Fuuko when the latter was an elementary student. That...sorta speaks to something, especially when she kept this relationship going with her for years, into Fuuko becoming a high schooler. And I wonder at what that could be.

Not sure you can say Mashiro keeps coming back to Fuuko this is only the second time we've seen and the current one she claimed they ran into each other, so hard to say really.

We know they met up multiple times since their introduction with the library because, on page 3, Fuuko mentions "little by little we stopped meeting". She mentions on the first page that when Mashiro cut her hair, she stopped calling Fuuko "Taki".

And, no matter how impressionable Fuuko may be, a single meeting when she was a grade schooler, followed by one when she's a 1st year in high school, does not make the relationship they have between them here and now.

I also said that Fuuko kept getting drawn back to Mashiro; not "Mashiro keeps coming back to Fuuko". Fuuko states that She simply had pulled back and away from Mashiro - likely around the end of middle school, since she mentions "interfering with my exam prep", which Mashiro comments on in this very chapter, upon "running into" her here.

But they have extensive history between them.

Yes I mis understood what you meant I thought you were talking about how she let's her go and then shows back up in her life. I agree the length and influence implied here was extensive.

Can't wait to see how this turns out innocent girl into the manipulative homewrecker she is. I also wonder why this little sociopath lead her on just to cuck her later.
I'm so excited! (I am not excited. I hate this story, 90% of the cast and I am only reading this purely for the sake of spite, pure hatred and the desire to watch them all get bent in glorious karma)

So it seems that Mashiro didn't touch Fuuko at all until this chapter, good, the fear of grooming is gone, hopefully.

What's interesting here is that Fuuko seems to have completely lost interest in Mashiro at the beginning. I suppose she liked the uniform more than Mashiro herself, so when she stopped wearing it, she lost interest or something like that.

Also, we mustn't forget that in the time between the two chapters, Fuuko already had a huge crush on the girl who is now pregnant, that could also explain that.

I doubt the flashback is over anyway, so we'll see.

God no wonder Fuuko is fucked when it comes to relationships. This is her formative experience with any kind of positive external person and she's already been betrayed.
And what else can she do she has emotional needs and her family don't give a toss about her so Mashiro is all she's got. Honestly I feel like getting with Yuni would just continue the cycle, I still hold out hope for Fuuko finding herself at uni and having all the women she wants.

I think Yuni's relationship could go either way. However I'm hopelessly team Yuni/Fuuko.

Wait, now it all makes sense, of course Fuuko was fine with being Yuni side dish she already got experience with being cucked :pepela:

Gotta say, toxic yuri sure hits different from toxic het when all the cheating and cuckery happens, this series is like a gift that keeps giving :meguupog:

Now I wonder where mangaka will go after hitting us with cheating, ntr and cuckery, hate fuck lesbian orgy? :finnawoke:
NTR revenge, now it's the time they start stealing other's girls just to mess with them. The ultimate NTR (it's not because I like you, ba-baka!)

She implied it. She said she had sex with someone she didn't care about.
absent knowing whether Fuuko's had relationships (physical or otherwise) with anyone other than Mashiro, it would stand to reason that Mashiro is the one she was talking about.
Nothing that I can recall implies that Fuuko has extensive experience with dating/relationships up to this point, so.

We have moved from toxic cast to sociopathic cast now. I guess regular toxic shit is not cutting it for the author anymore. Shit is getting ridiculous just to make Fuuko look redeemable compared to these monsters.

sympathetic != redeemable.

I agree it's a reasonable assumption, but that's not the same as her saying it. It's just strongly implied.

Fuuko was always redeemable. IMO the only thing that is required for redemption is the one you want to provide as to be willing to do so.

I wonder if we'll be given some insight into Mashiro's story beyond Fuuko's perspective - to see whether there's a reason she is the way she is, like we have with Fuuko, Yuni, and Nanase.
Given the symbolism of that Sensei and her attire that one chapter, I'm willing to bet Mashiro might come from a very strict religious family or something of that matter. Maybe the Sensei with the Rosary is just catching onto Mashiro's nonsense though with other girls and disapproves. Definitely curious why she's so frivolous.
