I agree...I was honestly so surprised seeing the comments of everyone just freaking out about how she's a lesbian, I thought it was pretty clear that she's not tho? The message was that she doesn't need a relationship and is happy on her own. Idk how that could be misinterpreted
i guess it's pride month and everyone on this site is so used to yaoi/yuri mangas that their brains just automatically interpret things that way ╮(￣▽￣)╭ you know how like shippers swoon when their favs just look at each other. Yeah, it be like that. Overanalyzing .
Ahaha you're probably right.
yeah thats true. although how many instances has there been where a manga author clearly was not intending for romance between 2 ppl but still there are people shipping 2 men simply bc of the “bromance” moments? if their gender is reversed im sure there would be lots of comments like that also,, in my opinion its sort of similar to this chapter haha ,, ppl could think she looks adorable with the new sweets girl & make an offhanded comment that doesnt rlly warrant a deep analysis (●'◡'●)ﾉ sorry for grammar mistakes or if anyone take this the worng way /nm /lh
It's not really about the genders for me. What ticks me off is that the author was trying to send a noble message that being single is okay as long as you have passion and friendship and then people twist the characters' intention and feelings to destroy that message completely, all just for some very insignificant interactions. I usually don't give a damn what people ship, but this time the shipping was uncalled for.
Maybe in future chapters, the author will give us more interactions btw these two characters that potentially lead to something more, but as right now, there's not even any remotely romantic subtext.
she's not a lesbian. She's enjoying her single life because she already has something she's interested in (sweets) and she has friends with whom she can share that enjoyment (her colleagues and the new girl). I thought the theme of this chapter was pretty clear. And that's something not a lot of mangas explore, so kudos to the author.
