They responded!
*facepalm forever* THIS DOESN'T EVEN MAKE SENSE. And that poor other twitter user has been suckered into thinking the manga is close to the book... I'm this close to unlocking my twitter to have a go at them... (maybe I'll just make a new account.) |

I'm so screencapping this for posterity...
It's just ridiculous, I mean pacing? The book is even slower than the anime (by virtue of being, well, a novel! the anime has cut a lot of stuff as it is). And yes, the novel is less "subdued" but not because it's chock-full of hot, uncensored yuri action. |

Seriously just sell it for what it is an ecchi manga, there is definitely an audience for that (as much as I hate to admit it) Don't try to lie and say this is the equivalent of the novel which clearly is aimed at a completely different audience.

9-12 in english are out...
I must admit, while I still hate the yori scenes, but other than that? The mangaka is doing a really great job in some other parts. For once, we're actually seeing things from other characters POV! And some of the characters, like Maria, gets more personality and development. Also I read chapters 13 and 14 and I see that the romance between Saki and Satoru will get more development as well (YAY!). What do you think? |

(And to just THINK that a SSY manga could've been a great companion to the anime, fleshing out things that the show didn't have time to tackle, etc. But no, they had to commission this... thing... instead.) |

I mean, you're right. The characters are different but the story?! If you've read chapters 13 and 14 you'll see it's now on the same track as the novel/anime. |
