It's hilarious when you can understand it. Those that didn't translate well kinda fell flat and really jarring. Too bad though, this has a really good (and funny) ensemble cast and it's rare to read manga where there are two active protagonists (instead of your typical "one of them chases after the other" romance). And I feel like it needed two volumes for the story to breath.

I read this while listening to the BLCD (with vets Hirarin and TsuguTsugu). I teared up every time Asakura was overwhelmed with feelings. There was extended dialog, great sfx (the marbles from the ramune have such a strong impact, esp. on chapter 5), and a super long H scene (to the point I was going "wait, we're still on /this/ panel?" a couple of times ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄ ).
[Spoilers]
Ending was bittersweet. I'm going to imagine that when Asakusa finally joins Tachibana, the manuscript does get published and it'll reach so many people. That photograph with Matsumoto and what we can assume as his partner was a very nice touch.

Two volumes to what basically amounts to 4 major characters? I love the use heavy imagery for metamorphosis and "predetermined" fate (even got heavy handed with Masaki being a fan of "One Hundred Years of Solitude"). BUT we've barely scratched the surface of these women who have to abide by society's norms (Etsuko's perfect housewife image as opposed to what? Ayumi dropping her true self for a perfect girlfriend image, and Yuuji's journey with her gender dysphoria vs the perfect son image).
I don't understand Masaki's deal, too. Like, the only true thing I know about him at this point is he really loves fantasy literature but for some reason is trying to hide it. I don't know if his major was mentioned to merit daddy issues but that doesn't really fit with the theme of the story.
I feel like I'm gonna be let down. ┗( T﹏T )┛

I love that Director Ahn is a confirmed lesbian and her GF is adorbs. ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ノ~
I had hoped that this ended up as a poly-fi relationship between the three, but I'm glad of where Sun-yool wants to be.
We still got one more chapter, but all in all, I'm appreciative of the things that happened after the climax. It was so easy to slip to darker paths with their histories and it didn't. IMO, the breakup needed to happen. Jisuh needed the time apart to calm down and reflect on what he wants. Heejae needed the distance of the breakup to not be emotionally manipulative (I believe he still was, unconsciously, with his persistence of sticking to Jisuh).
The time skip is hopefully enough time to talk and get an actual closure on the shitty things they did to each other. That's more important to me than them getting back together. (Obviously, signs point that they do still have feelings for each other, and my 3P shippy heart would be happy if Heejae went to the play for Sun-yool, too.)

This is tripping my shipper heart so bad with what seems to be a Marshall/Sam end-game. Marshall with Monica. Sam with Link. Link with Angela. Angela with Vikki. Sam with Charles. Charles with Umed. Dallas with a bunch of lego under his feet forever and ever, you dps-sh*t.
Also, view Bowser's episode via webtoon; you won't regret it.
Christ on a cracker, my old heart can't take this manhwa's romance. It's so endearing, yet grounded in reality (like, liking someone doesn't necessarily take over your whole life) so somehow the feelings come across as a lot more sincere.
Also lol at his uncle's boyfriend's lack of panel time (well, there's the chibi version). This feels like waiting excitedly for B99's Captain Holt's husband to appear on-screen.
