Tamen de Gushi

[Afelisk]

10/10 would scare again

The humour is right up my alley, but lately, the numerous erratic jumps from chapter-to-chapter between characters/side stories gets annoying as it heavily detracts from the two MCs.

Tamen de gushi means "their story" right? What a nice name lol

Sigh.... Ok there's issues with the Chinese government but I hate seeing this being mentioned every time this series is brought up.

The artist was originally an illustrator who was roped into making some comics. Their studio has many other artists and they publish new compilation books once in a while.

At one point their regular publisher got nervous about the government not liking gay content (this part wasn't explicitly mentioned but is usually assumed, either that or the publishers are just really homophobic). But since then they found another publisher, and the bl series from another member of the studio got another book published. Recently the artist has been posting about wanting to go back to doing illustrations again. I'm choosing to take those comments at face value. They explicitly mentioned having issues with publishers before so if that was the issue again they would have said so.

And before anyone mentions the same stuff that always gets mentioned, the previous strips haven't gotten censored and the government isn't driving them out of business (the studio head posted photos of stacks of cash on social media).

Edit: gonna add some sources.

Photo of studio head with cash that they're giving as year end bonuses to the artists.

Artist mentioning butting heads with the publisher, not wanting to cut out the confession scene from the published book. Also promising that she'll keep drawing whether she gets physically published or not. Note the dates of this is before they independently published the other book.

Artist mentioning they're taking a month off from the comics to do illustrations instead. There's more comments about this in other places that I can't pull up rn. I bought her art book so might take a picture of it when I get home.

This probably was my first Yuri reads.
It was until I forgot what it was even about.

Tbh it should've ended once they started get things settled or something.

At this point it's already lost its charm compared what I read to more recent Yuri manga and Manhwa.
Yes the gag stays but the story doesn't move forward

 

[Phwraengck]

I'll just ask, but does the main story after chapter 151 really not resolve? i.e. what happens after the kiss, the unrequited love of pink-haired girl, mop-head's character development with his "girlfriend" after his birthday, etc? I've been skimming the chapters for any hint of the main story continuing, but is it really over?

 

[NolanDaneworth]

They need to switch to BiliBili digital publishing.
The "Lily" manhua was there.

Either Tan Jiu is moving somewhere elsewhere outside China (since people mentioned that Tan is living in Honk Kong back then), having troubles with the publishers as CryingMeff mentioned below, or it's actually discontinued from what i saw Twitter 5 days ago ( https://twitter.com/xianflrt/status/1312479844660178946?s=20 ).

aaa loveee this so muchhhh

I stopped reading this beacuse the author made the MC look like a guy like 3/4 the way through. The transition was kinda gross tbh. | Story 10/10 | Art 1/10 |

 

[archimedesu]

This manga could have been legendary if it weren't for shitty ass censorship.

@Phwraengck kind of? sometimes its like the author hasn't got around to figuring out what they do and then just have like 3 chapters of random filler. I don't think that the pink haired girl's confession(?) got resolved in a way that made me remember what happened. The arts nice so I've just been sort of enjoying that tbh

 

[Sameragamer143]

@weebydude1 dude you dont even know how long the art takes the freaking anotomy is freaking fire and the shading how in the world would you even say that this is 1/10?

 

[Yytr]

I thought this was dropped. Thank God it hasn't been.

 

[YumGumYum]

It's back <3

God Bless the authors
And translators

@Ireadphotos and @Sameragamer143, All i'm saying is that I didn't come here to watch a romance between a girl-come-reverse-trap and a girl, I came for a cute sweet Yuri. The same thing often happens with Yaoi, they make the males look feminine.
