Disgusting comments. They have Dirty mind and blame the Author. Author is just showing his artist skills. Love this manga so much. Every panel is lively
If you don't see the clear sexual tones you might be blind it's obvious as hell
I think you're just too sensitive or something. lol
If you get turn on by reading this Manga you need to see the doctor. lol
I wish i was as dumb and naive as you. This whole manga is just the author barely hid fetish
If that's what you believe, then why you keep Reading it? If you keep consuming a form of entertainment that, in your eyes is a fetish for over 80 chapters, then you are a pervert by your own definition. Why don't you just f#ck off, then?
I don't read it i saw the first two chapters and dropped it dummy
So you are judging a story of 88 chapters after only reading 2... If so, your input about it has no value at all. Your opinion and your views about it don't matter, stupid.
Two chapters is enough i don't want to read 80 chapters of a child being sexualized because I'm normal
Nah, you are just too sensible and easily offended by fictional characters, focusing on only one aspect that is severely toned down in later chapters. Grow an emotional spine...
Blah blah blah blah you like kids alright
If you see these 13 years old girls and come to the conclusion they are "sexy", then you are the one sexualizing them in your head. So, my advice? Stop projecting, pervert.
Bro is gonning to kids.
You want me to be a pervert soooo badly sorry i don't like the sexualization of little girls weirdo
I know... Dude is projecting hard.
But you're sexualization it.
Are you stupid or what?
Just stop gonning to kids Weirdo
I'm not it is sexualized I'm just acknowledging it
Don't waste your time... He is just some freak that sees sexualization in every kid he crosses...
Yeah you're right
I don't know who's a kid and who is not, but this artwork definitely sexualizes characters
I say this without any offense. I skimmed through it without reading it so as not to bias my opinion. In the very first scene, the young girl does a series of very impressive gymnastic moves. Yadayada you can immediately recognize the work of a seasoned artist: a superb mastery of anatomy, movement, and a highly effective characterization that portrays the character as passionate, cheerful and interesting overall. Up to this point, there’s nothing sexualized about it. Everything is fine, and it really makes you want to keep reading it. Then she fell into the water, and there was a panel shot from a low angle focusing on how the water drips from her shorts—and specifically on the size of her butt. In this panel, there is no dialogue, no new insight into the girl’s personality: just a heavy focus on her butt. I have no doubt that this work is worth reading, but let’s not lie to ourselves. Girls come in all shapes and sizes (I don't know her age yet), and that in itself isn't sexual. But in the context of a drawing and a story, depicting something commonly viewed as sexual WITHOUT it adding anything to the narrative is definitely a kink on the author's part.
You're right and the sexualization of young girls in the manga is a well known thing. The gaslighting is strong with the ones denying it.
The problem is your eyes
Nobody is turn on reading this manga. If you are you need to be in jail
You just need to stop gonning to kids that all
All your mind dirty. Nobody turn on reading this manga
Honestly, true that it is kinda sexualized but the way you point out on people that they're go-ning is the wrong in your point. I am a female and I read this for the chemistry, story, art, and for the yuri and if I'm being honest with you, nothing perverted has even happened to the story. It's just how the anatomy of this author works. Now please, don't go around judging the readers just because you saw a SMALL portion, you could judge only if you've reached the end as us. Not when you only know tiny, a kid or not, but if a mind of one kind is childish. That's what loses.
youre the pervert
I'll say to you the same I said to the other guy. If you look at this and think they are "sexy", you are the one sexualizing them.
There’s nothing wrong with the artist wanting to show anatomy and gymnastics drawing skills. The problem is when you put middle school kids in suggestive positions that would show under their skirts and make their clothes wet on purpose. Don’t get me started on the feet. One can draw gymnastics without focusing 10x on feet btw. It was 100 percent on purpose. Another guy on here seems to be arguing that we’re the ones sexualizing. We’re just pointing it out because of how blandly obvious it is and how inappropriate it is to be drawing middle schoolers in this manner.
u are lacking something to not notice the authors fetish. these are middle school students drawn in a suggestive way. ignorance is a bliss
youre irritating bro keep defending your lame ass u look dumb
And you sound so pathetic getting all authistic over fictional characters... Nobody cares about your retarded emotional ovaries getting hurt.
Omfg I remember this. I was so weirded tf out. These couple ppl on here are still defending ts. This panel is literal sexualization. Her bra and her butt is out like dude… How are y’all saying showing ass is not sexualizing.
LMAO youre nasty i really dont care what u think abt me im glad i dont have a mindset like you
ohhh u are so dumb i cannot with you
Ooh dudes ableist, misogynistic and a pedophile man just end it
I rather be "nasty" than emotional weak. If this tame manga is enough for you lose your shit, you shouldn't even be here. Mangas don't care about tour fragile little feelings. So keep barking... This manga will continue being a success despite your butthurt.
Wow.... Looks like my words hurt A LOT of EMOTIONAL OVARIES of some AUTISTIC crybabies pussies. Haha. Keep seething while this manga keeps on succeeding.
Now keep on barking, but know this won't make any difference to me, since I'm muting this shit. I gonna keep enjoying this fine work knowing with joy It lives rent free inside your RETARDED little heads.
That's right! Having the final word here, bitches!
CIAO!
ur the one crashing out actually .. also the way you type ur last post is cringe . youre embarrassing i hope u dont delete these posts of you defending your ass and this manga so i can laugh at it whenever i want to
I thought u liked ppl with ovaries… do u not? Weren’t u just saying about how everyone in the manga is cute? I’m sorry to break it to u but…. Akebi chan is a girl *gasp*. And yes she does have an ovary too unfortunately. It’s so devastating isn’t it.
fr hilarious LMAOOOOUAOAOA who likes to read yuri THEN using ovaries to try to piss me off like what the hell are u on bro...
True that it's a sexualized fan service that's about a decade ago..
But has the story involve any s-x scenes? Go check it out for yourself & I honestly don't mind. The author might be a bit perverted but not as whole. I've noticed things while it progressively updates that they're much more focusing on the heart warming main ship rather than what y'all so call sexualization, and the start yes but have any of you checked the end?

I'd side on you guys if the newest chapters involve the sexualization. I'm honestly just waiting for EriKomi to hold hands & be tgt yet so far, all I'm sensing is the doom arc incoming.
So it's fucking sexualized the fuck are you on about fan service with MIDDLE SCHOOLERS is pedophilic. Using anything and everything to defend this bullshit
Excuse me, didn't I say it's true that I agreed that it was sexualized on the (first place), Sir Glorious King Kabru? My defense is that because nowadays (it's latest chapters), is not really that sexualized? Plus, those were decades ago where sexualization is somehow normal (I'm not saying that I like sexualization, I'm just mentioning it so you could blame the old times where they were fine about it)
Plus, EriKomo just had a peck? And about shipping the middle schoolers, it's alright as long as it's not inappropriate like the ship Anya & Damien for example and the author does it as heartwarming as theirs, the pinning on bed scene on the other hand was just a filming for their project
Not to be rude but you're not applying what I mention most likely, you just hate on other people's love towards this manga, it's cute and realistic.
Check it's latest chapters
jeez if your a pedo just say that... you can not defend why the author would draw so many panels of different angles of a childs behind without sounding like a pedo yourself
Do author has fetish of rape and abuse type?
Plot is an adaptation of selkie folklore where some men would take selkie wives by stealing their seal skins, leading to an unhappy marriage. Then the selkies return to the sea after finding their skins either with help or on their home.
I'm glad I drop this shit.
Why?? Her past isn't graphic and the storytelling is intriguing.
It's actually pretty accurate of that time..
This story doesn’t even feel like the author has a rape/abuse fetish. Is this theme present in their other works?
The other work is a korean palace setting where a yokai fox lady comes across a mysterious person that can see her true form. This person is also secretly being held captive at the palace because she’s treated as an ingredient/elixir of immortality for the emperor. The fox lady is trying to help the captive person escape while working to uncover the conspiracy surrounding why this person is special. I won’t spoil, but the concept of an “elixir of immortality” being chased after by an emperor has historical roots and people would imagine all kinds of “medicinal” ingredients, like mercury or “snake oil,” or “mermaid flesh.”
People can avoid reading stories that include rape/abuse because they are indeed heavy and sensitive topics and should be treated with the seriousness they deserve. However, the author doesn’t have a rape/abuse fetish because the impact of rape/abuse on the character and setting isn’t ignored. In fact, the author never portrays them as “positive” experiences and even takes good care of the pacing when covering these topics. Taking a close look, the historical selkie folklore that the plot is based on can be problematic because some are stories of men almost “getting away with it,” when really the selkies were the ones at a loss the entire time. If you completely write off a story without understanding why it’s adapting specific elements of folklore and history, you might also potentially miss the point.
For example: if you want to try and analyze: the author is adapting historical folklore that framed women-like beings and non-humans as needing to be “tamed” or “acquired” for a man’s benefit, and recentring the stories around women’s survival, freedom, love, and more. (As you can tell, I am a nerd).
You put this into words so well!! I also felt the same with how the author incorporated the selkie's past and what the author intended.
That was such beautiful wording twin and with the recent updates the selkie folklore is a really interesting story and idk what this guy is on about with the author so called fetishes bc they literally aren’t plus the story is perfectly paced out well and isn’t rushing any part of it and if this guy didn’t properly read and actually understand the whole story and is just spouting bs I think he needs to gtfo bc clearly this isn’t his cup of tea then we don’t need his comments
Thank you, twins!!! Ngl, I think it's a little concerning if the sight of mature subject matter makes a person jump to a fetish assumption rather than trying to figure out if an author is trying to create a meaningful portrayal of a real issue. Hot take, but I think that kind of quick dismissal is its own sort of violence because people should know that the act and consequences of rape and abuse do not always look the same, that the topic should be taken seriously, and that we need to dismantle the structures that allow this power abuse to continue. I absolutely hate all those toxic yaois that start with rape because they romanticize coercion, but I also understand that they're almost a satirical joke. Like, imagine the double standards of a red pill man forced to read that stuff. Men's security and comfort around other men should not come at the expense of a woman's dignity!!!!
Hungry man only thinks of bread
So she laterally got raped by a random guy for about years and born a child? Are you serious author? LOL I drop this ship after reading chapter 16
well on the one hand i hate that there's a past like that
on the other i like that the author kind kept close and true to selkie lore
The plot is based off staying close to selkie lore
So? I'm really happy to drop this kind of shit. Rape isn't not my interest.
Then just drop it ain’t no one cares about your opinions, you literally posted two separate comments for what
Finallyyyyyy
