| The synopsis sounds like it's a typical yuri story about two female rivals for a guy who end up with each other. Although judging by superficial Internet search is still josei straight romance somehow. |

| @Yuno Well, I can think of a few straight rom-coms that focused on the theme of friendship, but their love interests were part of the cast and not meme characters, lmao. However, this does not make the manga worse and since it is already finished, we will most likely get a full adaptation. |

I do hope this is a surprise yuri and not just a retread of Betty & Veronica. =w=
| @Lumenesca A yuri that begins with two girls rivarling for male is no less cliche than the Betty and Veronica dynamic. Especially considering how much their shipping with each other instead of Archie affected the first one, lmao. |
