I don't normally read yuri but this was supposed to be a classic and I ended up really liking it. I read the whole thing in a couple hours...Are there other series that are similarly cute and heartwarming?
A lesser author would've made Xiao-Lu meekly succumb under peer pressure and drag out a cliche plot of that other girl meddling for the entire season
How come Chinese names are so crazy compared to Japanese names
>>4485796Between this and My Dearest Nemesis it's obvious the artist had some personal grievances with a past girl that they're trying to compensate for with their comics

>>4485801Phonetical structure of language. Japanese has something like 106 syllables and that amounts for 106 "sounds" they can make, because how they are read is consistent. Ka is always ka, not kae, kei or other shit. Moreover most of these sounds are familiar for europeans, with maybe the exception of tsu-dzu. And then japanese names have a common sense of, you know, consisting of several syllables, A-ma-ri Re-na-ko, Ko-to Sa-tsu-ki.Now in Chinese we have something like x10 of amount of syllables japanese has. Plus comes in play tonality, there are something like 2 to 4 ways to say each syllable and every one of them means something different. Syllables also sound foreign to europeans, you just don't find Xiao here. Then chinese words, in particular names consist of 1 syllable each (yes, I know it's a simplification, shut up), Xiao Lu, Luo Li. And that's why despite much lower number of phonemes, japanese names feel more colorful and easier for westerners.I sometimes see people here complaining about japanese, but honestly the only problematic points are writing system and it being high-context language. Phoneticaly it's the most adequate language I have some understanding of, and grammar is okay.
I loved Nemesis, but Green Tea is just boring with unlikable characters
