Also World Sexual Health Day, but probably best to not try to combine them.
Got up too early, went to the office, ate too much spicy chicken biriyani, did a work or something.
Read: How Do I Turn My Best Friend Into My Girlfriend? vol 1 (Syu Yasaka): High-school girl realizes her feelings for her best friend aren’t platonic any more, best friend is oblivious, other friend is supportive and doesn’t find the gayness noteworthy. That seems to be a trend in newer yuri manga, there’s no “but we’re both girls, how can it be?”. Don’t know if it’s the same for BL but I hope so. Also don’t know if actual Japan is becoming any less homophobic, but this has to be a good start.
Read: Glitch vol 4 (Shima Shinya): The end?! Several things are resolved, but a lot is left open, which could be for a sequel, or just artisticness.
Read: Villain’s Vignettes vol 1 (Drew Hayes): Actually three novellas(?) about Hephaestus and/or Fornax from the “Villain’s Code” series, between books 2 and 3, two holiday specials and one in which Fornax gets isekai’d.
