It's my practice to retire scanlation that have been licensed. Therefore, this will be removed from MandaDex shortly. Unfortunately, I can't do anything about other aggregator sites that took it from MD. I would like to ask the readers who thought this title worthwhile to please support the licensed copy. Doubtlessly, you'll see a better overall quality in translation and ownership. I'll be getting an English copy myself to enjoy along with my Japanese copy.

So, MC at some point completely learned how terrible the situation was with her best friend, but instead of picking her up or at least calling the police, they just broke up when they grew up? What was she just thinking? I can still believe that the boys can ignored this (well, you know, men must be strong), but girls? Especially in this situation?

@ThePaulBunyanTrophy Well, it seems that this manga is over, so I won’t have a problem buying a volume. As a psychologist, I love psychological manga.

The official English has just been released in both physical and digital formats!!

I know it sounds corny as hell, but this manga changed my life, at least from an artistic standpoint, and it's definitely in my top 5 mangas of all time. If you enjoyed this, don't miss your chance to have an official english copy on your shelf! It's well worth it.

This REALLY suffered from having only 4 chapters. It's not bad by any means but because it was so short no real feelings could be built up which makes the situation feel shallow and empty. I'm gonna guess the author wrote this as a form of self-care, a way to get out the ick of a bad life experience.

Honestly, yeah, it happened the same for me.
I did have some emotion grow on me, but it being only 4 chapters(4.5) I just can't get sad or anything as it was really fast.
Still, a great masterpiece in my opinion, I loved it

WLW galore but I can't help but feel bitter about stories like these where the women want to be with each other but one of them always die. I'm sick
They never wanted to be together in a romantic sense. The author herself admitted in an interview that she wanted to describe the issue in the context of friendship, not romance.

P.S. By throwing a negative reaction instead of a reasonable counterargument you are not refuting the idea, you are simply throwing emotions.

You replied to my comment SuperOniichan.
So? Does that mean by default that my mention of a reaction to another comment in the same thread earlier was necessarily an accusation against you? Do you think I couldn't tell from reaction that someone else had drop it?

UPDATE: Read my reply again carefully. I'm literally saying I was talking about another comment in the same thread. For someone talking about a hallucination, you have incredibly poor reading skills.
