It seems it was more of a casual relationship for Midori while Maki took it seriously. Even their goodbye kisses were teenage games in the former’s mind. She’s nit necessarily evil though those two are fundamentally incompatible. Maki chose to look tunnel vision on an ideal rather than face the truth.

@JKTV Those are some pretty powerful goggles you got there... ESPECIALLY for a josei manga. I don't think the story's gonna have an asspull like that (even though it'd be nice to see).

After reading it the second time, now I understand what Midori wants. The fact that she kiss her ex even though she has a boyfriend indicate that she doesn't what to marry with the boyfriend. The fact that she invited her ex to the wedding (and she might know that Maki still has feeling for her) indicate that she doesn't want to date with Maki. So, what Midori really wants IS A SLAP RIGHT IN HER FACE!!!! THAT DAM B**CH!!! RARRGGG!!!

I still don’t get this “we are both girls so it’s not serious / it can’t go on” trope. Lesbian (or gay) relationships are not a thing?

And if the motivation behind it is “I’m scared of what could happen”...well, it’s normal, but why don’t just talk to your partner about it instead of running away?

Seriously, it’a ALWAYS this dumb bs...at least find other motivations to make them break, authors.

@emMeBi86 Look up class-s media for the reason why, and also why most manga showing relationships between girls is set in schools. I'd try to explain it but I'd get it wrong, it's been a long time since I read up on it

@emMeBi86 Supposedly all girls schools give some leeway to gay relationships, it's expected and somewhat tolerated (dunno if that's like manga poisoning my brain or if that's an actual thing in Japan) but only during their school years once they graduate they repudiate everything as "gals being pals" and move onto joyless marriages.

Honestly I think it works, a person rejecting their own identity to fit into society and leaving our main character to deal with the fallout of losing a pillar of support and getting rejected while themselves try to fit into a society which doesn't fully accept them.
It might be overused but I think it has a lot of potential as a premise.

They also don't discuss thing like adults because a) where's the fun in that? (for us the readers) and b) they are dumb children

Lol, I didn't read the summary and thought it'd be a one-shot. Pleasantly surprised, tbh. Recently, too many new Yuri manga are too moe and sugary for my taste
