So, my previous assumptions were wrong. They didn't bang in between chapters. Yay...
But since that's the focus now... MAYBE they'll do it this time. Hopefully. Pretty please?
@EnderWin It's a common yuri/yaoi trope. And yes, it's quite jarring and immersion-breaking AFAIK.
Edit: I take it right back (for now), the very next chapter briefly shows a gay couple, and one of Arisa's friends has a boyfriend.
Alright, now that Daphie's version is out, I feel safe talking about it.
This ending's... half satisfactory. It finishes the main thread (Kousuke and Koto), as they seemingly have to keep social distancing, likely due to a restraining order or whatever, but will hold on to their feelings until...
Well, I kinda knew they weren't going to fuck, so this is a logical stopping point for this chapter since we're getting a flashback next, and that'll probably take a while. And I highly doubt they'll be able to stall a proper talk from then on.
And you wanna know what? I WISH other yuri manga...
@tsuyukihime I got a message from MangaDex moderators saying my comment had been tagged for me, so I assumed they did for me with some other method or whatever. But since you can see them, maybe they changed their mind?
In any case, I tagged it as spoiler myself now. Thank you for the warning.
I don’t wanna assume this is one of many extras to come only to be disappointed, so I’ll assume this is the end.
And assuming that, it’s still a rushed AF ending... but it’s better than leaving the story hanging like with the previous chapter. At least they’re happily wed.
Seeing as there's people here just as confused as me, I'm gonna do my usual cataloging so that we're all on the same page. These are all the people so far:
Hope this helps.
Edit: I wasn't aware, but I'm not allowed to give spoilers in MangaDex comments, so this one has been tagged as such...
I've seen this kind of lore (ancient inhuman-beings fathering humanity and the consequences of their actions dropping on to the MCs) used elsewhere, but it feels extremely compact here. You'd expect something so alien to be drip fed more slowly so that we can take it all in at a reasonable pace...
Ok, I'm low-key happy she didn't bully a kid into suicide.
But I also completely get where her anguish comes from. Putting the wrong words into your actions and not being told that's wrong... that can shatter everything you know when it's thrown back at you. I wouldn't be surprised if Shizuku...
