Here's to hoping Ochi will light the fire under their arses to finally define their relationship. It's obvious they want to, but are just too stubborn to admit it.
let's pray
even all devine being try to get them together but still a no, I mean, look at all the coincidence. (￣∇￣")
I know a couple who have the same exact dynamic as Miho and Nao. She's asexual, he's bi with a really strong sexual drive. They have rules in place of course: she knows all his partners, when they're going to do it, and only with males (apparently just to avoid any unwanted pregnancies/complications). As far as I know, they've had no problems with feelings getting involved from either parties. They've been together for 8 years, and they're actually getting married this year!
interesting :0
It really is! I've talked about it at length with them because I feel the potential to get messy is huge. But they've got a system with vetting potential partners and are completely honest with anyone who wants to get involved. Like, one of the rules is that the partner can't be in a relationship (doesn't matter if poly/open) as that means unknown people who can complicate things. It also wasn't easy at first because they didn't know she was asexual to begin with, so there was so much insecurity with him thinking she didn't love him, and her questioning what was wrong with her.
glad that they found a workaround and still going strong! gratz to their wedding :D
Ohhh that's really nice because I'm also asexual (and aromantic so idk if it applies since I don't really want a SO) but that kinda dynamic is exactly what I have in mind if I hypothetically ever get into a relationship. I don't want my partner to be deprived of their needs just because of me. Of course it'd be best if I also had an aroace partner but if not, that dynamic is what I'd want. As long as we're both honest about our relations and the other person is someone we both can trust it's ok.
As a polyam person myself, I always happy to see positive stories like that ! Communication, honesty, transparency are the key words to make it work
Right?? As long as both parties are aware of what they do with their sex life and agreed to it, they set rules... I don't think there's any issues with it. They're in the relationship, outsiders have no right to judge
It... Really doesn't get better. Both of them are still so stupid and frustrating. To add to the shit stew, in the next chapters, characters will be (re)introduced who just create so much stupid drama.
It's so interesting to see an artist's style evolve. If you go back and read ch1, it's so different compared to the most recent chapter (Doyun doesn't look the same at all lmao)
yes he got them lashes now
Eh, lack of proper communication is still their main issue. Yuki still dodges confrontations until she's absolutely forced to, and her insecurities still get the better of her. Naruse's still blunt, jealous, and fails to read the room correctly. His "none of your business" comment was most likely less about wanting to hide or keep Yuki out of it, but more that this issue with Sunohara is not something he should be talking about with others in the first place. They will keep having issues like this in the future, be it with more Hakamada shenanigans or girls that stick to Naruse, unless they learn communicate effectively.
Exactly. Naruse doesn’t deserve this hate.
Brother-zone is often not a restriction in manga... Lmao, sorry sorry ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Ugh, finally past that. The good stuff's about to start (づ￣ ³￣)づ
I know people might think it's shallow; but being a big eater myself and having lived in Japan, this is so goddamn relatable. In my experience, no one outright said anything (apart from my coworkers/friend's families) but the lingering stares... maaaan. So like, typical Japanese portion sizes are already smaller (compared to US/UK), so I'd often get double my order and then some eg 2 katsu curry sets + gyoza or an extra large bowl ramen with extra noodles.
Whilst this manga doesn't have the best writing/characterisations imo, I really like the strong-willed FC, the focus on trusting your partner, consent obvs, and women supporting women theme throughout. It's just so fucking rare in shoujo/josei.
Oh I agree!!
i totally see that happening.
Lmao, can you imagine getting cock blocked by death for 1,400 years?! No wonder when he found Nijino this time around, he went straight to the fucking first (let me do youuuu!!) Reckon he'll give up his dragon powers to save Nijino.
ooooo same thoughttts
Happy that we're getting more of this trio! As much as I love all three of them, I do have a sweet spot for Kou/Ginga (the dj didn't help, I need moreee). We already have DP, please can we get a dick train too?
