I don't have much to say but I was looking back through some old screenshots I had from Yuri is my Job! and just felt like I had to share this cover

They both make me want to scream in an affectionate way, I think I'm going to have to re read now

I love them so much...

I want them to be happy together no matter where the story takes them...

Yuri Is My Job ch63

Fun chapter and a great cliffhanger! Most of the other discussions I've seen about the last page seem to believe Sumika is taking down Kanoko's photo because she's about to turbodump her, but I'm not really sure that's the case here.

excuse me while I talk on fast forward a bit and point to a chalkboard a lot:

From an objective standpoint, Kanoko's behavior has absolutely undermined the trust in their relationship. But I don't think Sumika is looking at this from an objective standpoint, she's looking at it as someone who has been crushing on Kanoko for a while now.

Sumika is definitely coming into this relationship with an "I can fix her" mindset, and Kanoko being hopelessly tangled up over Hime is not news to her. There's also Sumika telling Kanoko "I won't ever push you away again, so don't you run away either, Kanoko-chan" or calling their outing a date to Kanoko's face the next morning, which I don't think are really signs that Sumika is wavering in this relationship. If anything, the idea that there's a breakup inbound sorta reads as wishful thinking that she'll go back to Nene, despite it being less than a day after reconciling over earth that Nene burned and salted years ago. Even during their date, Sumika is still trying to work out if she's even friends with Nene again.

Anyway, I think the reason Sumika is taking down that picture is because she finally is seeing Kanoko make that smile at her. A visual collage to make the point:

I think Sumika is feeling hopeful at the end of the chapter. Her biggest desire for the last four volumes is seeing Kanoko smile at her like she does for Hime, and now it's happening. She doesn't need a picture of Kanoko smiling for Hime to feel close anymore, she can just be close to Kanoko instead.

I kinda feel like the relationship drama that's brewing is less with missed timing on catching feelings for one another, and more that they're incompatible with one another in their current mindsets. Sumika generally has a good head on her shoulders, but I think her overbearing tendencies are going to pigeonhole Kanoko as "victim" and stifle the growth she's starting to show. Kanoko's love language seems to be service, and every time she's asked what she can do for Sumika in this chapter, she's basically been shot down with "a relationship isn't a debt". I honestly love this ship but there are going to be a lot of growing pains if this goes the way I suspect it's going.

Finally drew these designs! And also finally drew some Sumikano. Perspective on this one nearly killed me and it still looks super wonky, sorry...

Realized I haven't properly been doing my job as a true yuri ronin by defending my favorite female character who gets hated on because she's dealing with her mental illnesses in ways that fake yuri warriors do not find cute or endearing.

To the Kanoko Yuri Is My Job! haters: "Had It not been for the laws of this land, I would have slaughtered you."
