@remiska In the Valentines day episode, Hiura bought Midou some Kakinotane, but chickened out of calling it a Valentines day gift by ripping off the romantic tag. So Hiura is worried that Midou realized the intent and bought a reciprocal White Day gift.

@emMeBi86 This is labeled chapter 1 in pixiv, so I think the intent was to make it multiple chapters. But its been six months since chapter 1, so it is unclear whether the author still intends to release more

@Cephalon_Hope I made my original comment two months ago, so while I'm doing my best to engage with your responses, the details of this story aren't exactly fresh. But skimming through the earlier chapters, I think my impression was primarily formed by stuff like chapter 2, wherein Kei askes...

@Cephalon_Hope I label the relationship as mentor/mentee because a big part of their initial interactions is Meguru explaining to Kei what being gay is like. I agree their relationship is other things as well, but that doesn't preclude Meguru being Kei's mentor in matters related to sexuality...

@gallifreyan100 I can't speak for anyone else, but personally I'm not offended at the concept of Kobinata being FtM. I just don't think it is supported by the story. People are free to speculate, but so too are people free to give responses to that speculation. And I don't think its bigoted...

@EvelynIsGone Kobinata says his motivation for crossdressing in chapter 1 - "I'm just wearing what I like!" Him being trans is theoretically possible, but there is no evidence for it. I feel like you're making the same mistake as Hotsuki by speculating on convoluted alternatives to what is a...

@Zhou @darekpawlo I'm all for trans characters in media, but I disagree with the trans Kobikata theory. I also disagree with the secret woman theory. Hotsuki had her eyes closed when she was drowning; you can see her open her eyes when Kobikata picks her up. And after that she's not angled so...

That was so petty and I loved it

@trapsarebetter What can I say? I'm a filthy degenerate who enjoys seeing people in mutually satisfying relationships. 😋

I liked this story a lot! Yuusei was a super sweet guy, and having Mahiro be a preschool teacher was a neat touch. It was interesting to read a story that depicted the difficulties of being a male preschool teacher; Japan's pretty conservative so it doesn't surprise me that the parents would...

@Serenata I know right? That's two volumes in a row a major plot point was revealed in the extras; first with Aki liking Yori, now with Momoka dating their first singer. I get they want to sell copies of the volume but it seems like it would be really confusing for people who just read it every...

This manga is such a Kodama-sensei story. This is the formula her manga always use: 1. Write an interesting premise for an adult romance - two former classmates who took very different life paths but end up working at the same place 2. Explore that premise in a fairly interesting way - have an...

That was cute. I agree there should be a shounen ai tag though.

@MavB_Ver Huh. Fair enough - I hadn't seen shun used like that before, but that secondary definition does fit this situation really well, and as a non-native speaker I won't argue with the dictionary lol.

@MavB_Ver I see your point on gyu making more sense, i.e. Hiura's heart is being squeezed. But regarding shun there's metaphorical steam rising from Hiura in the panel. I agree Hiura's embarrassed though.

@OrbiSana I think the giant top one is "kyun." It loosely translates to "heart stopping" and it means Hiura felt strong emotions. Granted they literally wrote "gyuuuuun" but I think that is just to give an exaggerated effect. The smaller bottom one is "shun" and it means "steam escaping" ala a...

@raze2012 it helps that this mangaka already has several published works, but yeah I was surprised by how quickly it became serialized too. The first episode came out Dec 26th, only ~6 weeks ago! Its gotten a lot of buzz on twitter though, with the first chapter having ~130k likes.

FYI per the description on the raws this is set between chapters 3 and 4. The description also said the next chapter is supposed to be a continuation of chapter 4, i.e. Hiura attending school wearing a girl uniform. But since this is now being serialized the timeline may get shuffled around a...

@smolbaka I didn't say Hiura "obviously wants to be a girl." I said it was a reasonable possibility. But I'm glad we at least partially agree.

@smolbaka I agree that some of the comments are jumping the gun, and that it isn't yet certain whether the author is going to make Hiura trans, or a gender non-conforming male. But its not unreasonable to think this might go in a trans direction, given that Hiura is not only crossdressing, but...
