Very similar to nan hao shang feng both stylistically, and in the sense that tamen de gushi just does everything it sets out to do. It wants to be funny wholesome yuri shenanigans, and it is funny wholesome yuri shenanigans. The author of tamen de gushi is really funny, but also highly capable of capturing raw intense emotions in a visual medium. The story is not particularly complex at all, but the author's skill in working with characters and expressing emotions makes for some surprisingly moving scenes.
I can't rate tamen de gushi any higher than this because it kind of stops being all that

Nan Hao Shang Feng
(Manga)

Don't expect anything life changing but I have no reason to give this anything less than a 9. I can't think of a single thing nan hao shang feng does wrong. The author accomplished exactly what they set out to do. Sometimes all you want is a well drawn & colorized visual comedy of the most absurd variety, and that's exactly what you get. This does mean that if you don't find the first 5 chapters funny, you're not going to get anything out of this series. If you do like the author's humour, rest assured, this series does not get any less funny later

I love orv more than I love life but a work does have to be pretty seamless to get a 9 or above. Orv is really good but it is not seamless. For each genuinely magnificent arc (utopia, demon king fight, the star thing, 1st outer god encounter & rereading, everything near the end) there is a formulaic (everything near the beginning), messily executed (the various nebula fights), or uncomfortably nationalistic (little people) one. The writing is pretty inconsistent. Orv could easily be elevated to a 9 if a number of largely irrelevant, uninteresting arcs were just cut directly.
