Wow, this turned into a very heated discussion . . . . I don't know if I'm weird or something, but it feels like I've been reading a different story altogether to some of the people ranting about Sorawo being a horrible person. Certainly so far in the manga the most I think you can say is that...

@FirstDayRegister they're not getting shorter, there are just a whole lot of double spreads. Also, much touching of strange stuff - I like . . . even though it's not quite the kind of strange stuff you expect from a manga tagged "yuri" . . .

@Arexty give it time - the character's backstory makes things like that more clear, though I don't know when the manga will get to that point in the story. Have a look at the light novels - they're totally worth reading.

The "wiggle wiggle" is annoying as hell - the official LN just left it as kunekune, which is a far better approach, I think. Anyone who likes this should definitely read the books - they're excellent.

Huh - Yarino is basically a female version of Kiritsu (kind of, a bit, if you squint), and Chihara likes her . . . which means the fujoshi girls were /kind/ of on the money . . . . I love this manga - for something that's framed in such a ridiculous way the characters are amazingly realistic...

Argh! Stop with all this "no longer a virgin" stuff - she was a high class courtesan, which is basically a really classy prostitute, and there's basically zero chance she was a virgin. She was in fact far more valuable than a virgin - she represented a large part of the ongoing value of the...

I think there are two reasons why Maomao dislikes Rakan so much. The first is the way he treated her when he first discovered her - he went way overboard and freaked her out. And then he spent years afterwards continuing to go overboard with her, embarrassing her, annoying her, etcetera. So she...

@mothaiba I said in an earlier post that it wasn't clear who decided that Fon Shen getting pregnant was a good idea (which would have been necessary - she would have been taking contraceptives and would need to consciously choose to stop), but I think it's highly unlikely that Rakan knew about...

@Nep you can only be a virgin once, after that you only get to sell sex (or other services, as the high class courtesans did, and Fon Shen was very much a high class courtesan). You also don't get to be a high class courtesan overnight - you have to earn that position, and while you're earning...

@Lightbrand it's not entirely clear in either version of the story I've read who decides that Fon Shen getting pregnant is a good idea. It's noted in a couple of places that this is a way to drop the cost of redeeming a courtesan, so it's a possibility that someone was thinking about it, but it...

@sylcacoer I think Rakan's family are the bad ones - they didn't care enough about their son to even forward on a message like that one. If it wasn't for his uncle being a decent human being Maomao might never have had anyone outside the brothel in her life, and would (at best) have ended up...

@Nep she wasn't sleeping around because she wanted to, that was the only option she had to earn any income after getting pregnant. So, the order things happened in was: (wrapped in spoiler tags to hide the wall of text) I'll just note that I recently read the web novel version of this, which...

I really wasn't sure this was worth reading when I started - the whole premise just seemed like it was going to be dumb. But it's actually really amazingly good, with excellent and very enjoyable character development, believable relationships, and an excellent mix of hijinks and serious...

Okay, pages 19/20 were /hot/. "You might get assaulted looking like this" "By Shiine?" ".... maybe" - the words are one thing, but the last panel of that passage was brain melting. Damn this is good shit.

@Heimdal I was surprised by that - both of them /immediately/ went there with no hesitation. Thinking about the pair of them it seems a bit odd - Hino is still asking herself why she's got all these urges, and Koguma is just flat out oblivious, so jumping that far kind of suggests that they're...

This is a bit hackneyed, but.... so leeeeewd..... I know Koguma is canonically oblivious about anything involving Hino, but she hardly resisted at all before letting her /lick and kiss her neck/. And (apparently) got visibly hot under the collar (yeah, let's call it that). What will it take for...

Lies! He's exactly as weird as you think!

@WillLi I'm a little bit confused as to what you think this story is about, if you think Takamiya isn't contributing anything significant to it. By my reading this story doesn't /exist/ without him, and the shape of his character is critical in determining the shape of the whole story. What's...

@WillLi as I said, the point of the story is basically the growth of both Takamiya and Ayaka, together - if you consider only one of them without the other it doesn't make any real sense. Takamiya without Ayaka is basically defenceless and incapable of surviving the stuff that's thrown at him...

I think it's seriously missing the point to complain about Takamiya being useless - he's spent most of his life being /forced/ to be useless, despite (or because of) what seems to be some pretty extraordinary innate power. Takamiya as a character is dominated by two things: that innate power...
