All right!

I figured from before that we were going to get a Christmas chapter, and I was right. Mari and Akko are so adorable, and Akko is awesome as always. Her face when Mari says that Akko's body is fine (because she saw her naked) was priceless.

Plus, Mari's old best friend from school shows up, and makes Akko realise how Mari is going to have to introduce her to strangers, as "my friend from school", which is kinda sad that they won't get to act like "normal" couples do.

The ring Akko gives Mari made me go "Aw", and I can't wait for the next chapter!

As an aside, a lot of things seemed to have happened in between the class trip and now:

- culture day
- sports day
- exam week

Morinaga seems to want to give us more fluffy cuteness before more angst? as a reward.

I appreciate that ^^ Good decision, Morinaga! *thumbs up*

Akko's expressions and behavior towards Mari is just so adorable. That hug...it was so sweet.

I think that this issue will bug Akko a lot and I expect that Morinaga will prepare for us some dramatic scenes while Mari won't be able to aknowledge Akko as her girlfriend in public even if Akko wished for it. I'm awaiting some awkward situations full of misunderstandings. But I hope there'll be more fluffy cuteness ahead for us ^^'

That would be nice.

Overall a good chapter, shame that i still have to wait to see what Mari bought Akko. -_-

Very cute chapter, and at the same time a different kind of anxiety starts to born. Not only was Akko's face when Mari introduced her as "her high school friend", but also notice Mari's face and reaction when Taguchi (I believe that was her name) had her hand on Akko's shoulder. Ah, but I hope more cute chapters will come along before Morinaga turns things dramatic again.

PD: lol at Sugi cosplaying with the manga club XD

She gave her a pinky ring? I bet I know what the letter says. It says, "I got my uzi back - you dudes is whack, face it, the Wu is back.'

Wonder what a Venn diagram using the sets of a) people who understood this post and b) people who read Girl Friends would look like.

Yeah... looks like this manga isn't over now that Mayu is put into play. Maybe we'll find out that she liked Mari too =P.

It was about time that they got together already! :) For most of the previous chapters, they've been doing forward and backward steps. It was kinda cute but 28 chapters of cha-cha can just make one dizzy! Back to chapter 29, I really enjoyed it. It was their moment of glory and I feel so happy for them! But the ending was kinda sad when Mari introduced Akko to Mayu... Go, go MarixAkko!

Guessing that her calling Akko just a friend is going to cause a bit of drama in the next few chapters ...

So many hnnngg moments. First that hug, then when Mari says "I want to sit next to Akko" when asked where she wants to sit. Akko's reaction couldn't have been more appropriate. And finally the ring and the letter. I also like how Akko is blushing more than Mari now. Guess Mari's childhood friend is going to bring drama for what I think is going to be the final arc.

We're totally basking in it! After all the drama, they deserve a break. That letter melted my heart! Also, it's nice to see that Mari is more carefree and open now than before.

Ah thank god some happy times ... hope they last till the end no more drama please just let us see how their relationship develops.

Akko turning around in her bed embarrassed best shit ever lol, super cute.

That last line sounded pretty ominous though.


Truly, comparisons between fellow humans are what turn out to be the most infuriating.

Not gonna lie, despite some aspects I find boring or exasperating in this manga, Akko and Mari look absolutely cute together.

It was also nice to see Mayu-chan making a real appearance since she has been only showed in flashbacks and stuff. That said, I wonder whether her character will have a major role in the story later on or not...
