I've really enjoyed first half of this story, but in the end this felt like a such yuri bait.

I don't mind if the author didn't go for Yuri but we forgot their friendship supposed to be genuine and heartwarming but the last few volumes are way filled with too many dramas, even the ending is being Vague about it. The author finally takes "You used to be like that salamander" (LOL) with all the melodramatic tones.
And the resolution honestly wasn't great at all. No Hugs(girls normally do physical contact especially to close friends, most of my girl friends do this whenever we meet), no feeling reaffirmation (despite being harsh on the drama), no handshakes, nothing.
We just got them talking about things that not necessarily needed for their character progress.

The author wanted to make the coming of an age story (and believe me we all are experienced this in our lifetime and mine including my girl friends most definitely doesn't look like this).

To be honest I've felt this got more and more pretentious with that Frog and Salamander analogy that Imho didn't go anywhere in the end.

I wouldn't mind just the yuri bait (altough it did disappoint me as I've started reading this with expectations of Shoujo ai - that's on me I suppose) but the constant back and forth of misunderstandings, shifting focus to Kaede ( I think that was her name ) pointless melodrama and vague ending that didn't conclude almost anything at all made me really dislike it.

Damn, I'm about 20 chapters in and the replies are pretty discouraging so far since I did start Nettaigyo to read a new Yuri series.

Yes, Its very Sad.. I hope koyuko and konatsu can go become closer at the end, and maybe make a confession of love or something. This is not True Yuri Manga, This is Only Yuri bait i think.

But I can Feel the emotional, their deep feeling, but why? Why Koyuki and Konatsu just endup being a "just friend"

Ah, I very dissapointed. This is so sad, I can't stop thinking about it 😭

i just finished reading this and saw that its not actually shoujo ai because the author said its not shoujo ai even tho its that on mal. However in a chapter one of the mc's takes a picture of the other mc sleeping, she blushes when someone says shes going on a date with her, and she gets flustered around her a lot and thinks of her. Is it just me or is this author stupid? I mean most 'friendships' dont involve a friend taking pictures of their sleeping friend and blushing...or even getting flustered when going out with said friend. Kinda is a slap on the face when the author is trying to force you to see friendship when its clearly more than that. This could have been an amazing series if the author just took a better route, heck made them get together after a year or two. Would of made a better ending than this rubbish tbh. Still gave it a 7 as i did enjoy it however it would have got a 9 if it was more shoujo ai and a well better ending than just 'oh friends' i really did wish we saw them together...ah well. When i first read the first couple chapters i wanted this an anime but now i dont unless they change the ending. >_< this chapter really did make me not like this manga as much as i could have :/

Please don't use "Shoujo Ai" for either a Yuri bait or somewhat gay but not go full with it.

The problem this manga has was the author showing way too many flags for the relationship to go beyond a normal friendship or between Senpai/Kouhai thing despite insisting that it was not Yuri manga.

Another issue that the author failed to tackles was the story. It doesn't know exactly what it tries to tell.
The author mentioned that the story would be about the coming of An Age. But that wasn't exactly what happened in the manga. Instead, we get these date scenes, overly angst and rigid friendship, and a girl who just can't move on with her life despite being shown from the first half of manga that she's slowly changing and more open up to people around her.

By the end of the story, we get exactly nothing memorable about this manga. At least that was my impression after reading this manga.
Even crap like citrus or Netsuzou Trap gets it right about what it tries to tell.

Wtf 😭 why does this manga have a girls love tag. I got baited so hard it's downright homophobic. 30+ chapters of melodrama and an overused metaphor about loneliness and not a single fucking kiss 😭. "girls love" more like girls being sad and lonely and bad at communication

Xaelath said:

I mean look above you guess why this GL bait exists and the friendship route is just laughably unrealistic.

The manga used to be very popular until the Author calls the reader during the interview that it's a story about coming of age which mentions it won't have any romance when the jealousy was hinted at multiple times in the story.

In the end, the story kind of bricked and left many people disappointed as none of it was about proper friendship, no GFL, not even the coming of age topic that the author trying to tell the reader.

Damn, the beginning of the manga seemed to me like it was definitely going down the romantic route, just that the two MCs hadn't worked through their feelings yet. I almost thought that the author might have changed their mind about the direction of the story. But I guess that was on purpose so that the author could mislead the audience. You're right, it really doesn't work as anything besides queer bait.
