Kinda get the impression their relationship isn't exactly going swimmingly, seeing as Aya only calls Mitsuki her roommate and not her girlfriend, and also immediately assumes she'd be bringing another girl over. Did they break up but stay friends?
I felt it too. How they're getting a little fight over Mitsuki buying a home theater, in addition to the things you mentioned. I think it's unlikely they broke up. Bickering and misunderstanding is part of being in a relationship. But if this transitions from "Cute teens don't know how to confess to their crush" to "Late teens/early 20's young adults don't know how to have an adult relationship" comedy I'd be happy. We're all a little jumpy hearing about the "Blue Yuri" disaster hanging over us like the sword of Damocles.

Small hints that Mitsuki is an impulse shopper. All those piercings and tats cost money. Is Aya the responsible one?

Why is her first reaction as soon as she steps into the house is "Are you cheating on me?". This is not some insecurity statement but an experienced one. Like it happened before. What a weird way to kick off the chapter. It's like they are not together at all

Man, as much as I love these two, their taste in bands kills me everytime, but only because the story is written like it's this super underground mega cool stuff and then it's fucking Oasis or Coldplay of all things lmao. Bless them.
Japan is the place where punk went to after being seemingly dead, there's virtually no recognition of that underground scene. It's always references to mainstream western rock, as if there wasn't any 80's metal/punk/rock pieces from Japan. I had the feeling at least the uncle would be listening to some X Japan, Buck-tick if going soft, and perhaps stuff like Dead End, D'Erlanger, or even Gastunk if going full-force. But I guess not, and this remains shoujo-leaning.

In this manga it feels like if you walked up to the roughest looking guy and asked what he's listening to he would answer, "Oh, niche stuff, it's BABYMETAL" or something lol

Remember the times when the author worked on developing mitsuki but left us with a long stretch where they did not have any romantic progress/interaction?
I do, so I think that maybe they threw in a "we broke up but now we know we should be together" bit.

Or they're just goofy responsible one and wild rockstar lesbians, but the possibility is there

I swear if we time skip for an "actually their relationship fell apart" story beat I'm dropping this harder than a sack of bricks what the fuck man. Like I know the mangaka isn't the best story writer but I only have so much in me
