Blood_Miracle They'd probably be unable to mention actual locations, as licensing is a rather big deal here. -_- I just wanna know what happens. I don't actually wanna SEE. Of course, seeing would be good, but I don't need it. Can you, uh, describe it? Or is it something you can't describe here? sweatdrop Oh, that page you're missing? It's nothing big, just Mariko in the bathtub thinking. The only reason it doesn't show is that it has some nudity in it, so Photobucket probably removed it. It's all a thought monologue from Mariko, nothing really happens--just the expected thinking panels and so on.
Here's a transcript of what's on the page, from the MakiMaki scanslation (whited out):
*SPOILERS*
"Whenever I think about Akko, my heart feels so warm... Lately..."
"When we're together... It hurts just a little bit...
-
I'm so happy whenever I hear her voice... When our eyes meet, my heart starts pounding...
All I want...is to be with her more...
To be with her all day... To be with her forever...
-
Is this love?
Or am I just being possessive?
*/SPOILERS*
Does that help?

Do they have this manga in video form? Like anime? It's a lot easier for me to watch anime then to read manga sweatdrop I'm not sure how to read manga. I know it's from right to left but the boxes aren't the same sizes so it looks mixed up to me burning_eyes

I know it's from right to left but the boxes aren't the same sizes so it looks mixed up to me burning_eyes No, Girl Friends isn't a big enough series to have been animated yet. I don't see the point of animating it either, actually...
Learning to read manga isn't that difficult, though? It's the same as reading Western comics, except you read in the opposite direction. Right to left, top to bottom--if you're not sure, it generally goes right to left straight across a "row" and then down to the next row, it's kind of a hierarchy. You'll get used to it if you actually try reading these more frequently.
Also, Girl Friends is one of those series where it isn't a big deal to accidentally read something out of order--you won't spoil yourself and it'll quickly become apparent which panel came first. It's not very complex or overly artistic/dynamic with the panel forms, so it should be an easier start.

OH OH OH I just realized that Chapter 12 is out. Hahahaha! I have a final in less than an hour and here I am reading a girl-love manga. Go me.
Well, I did study all day and night for it, so I should have some allowance...
*SPOILER* So there's part of this chapter that says "Maybe falling in love...doesn't have to mean that anything changes...It doesn't mean that I want something from Akko...
I dunno, that's news to me, 'cause I tend to want things from people I fall in love with. .__. Like secks cuddles. */SPOILER*

Well, maybe not for TV, but an OVA, maybe. Though, you are right. There is little point and is too small for a series right now.

"Stand! Stand up, Joe!"
I was laughing so hard in this chapter.
Stupid shoujo-ai throwing innapropriate man jokes out there like it's nothing.
It worked, though. X3

New chapter.
Shocking ending.
Slight nudity, but nothing is shown.
And the announcement of a new chapter every month for the next three months.
This is awesome.

Thanks for letting me know! I forgot to keep checking, because it took so long for the raw scans to come out, I guess.
Ahhh, talk talk! What do you think is going to happen and all?
*SPOILERS*
Oh my gosh, was it just me or was Mariko going all "Get away from her right now!" really really adorable? D: She's so in love...and so jealous hahaha. Totally hot for her, too. I like that Milk is really solidifying Mariko's feelings in this chapter as real romantic attraction, not just platonic affection.
But damn, what's up with her stupid, typical shoujo-ai, "But we're both girls, we can't be together..." Ugh just break the norm, do it do it do it. This is why I love Strawberry Shake Sweet, no one is doing this silliness, they're just like, "I'm lesbian, I like girls!"
Does anyone think Mari's flat-out gay? She's never really liked anyone before, and she really hesitates when Sugi and Akko ask her what kind of guy she likes. "... I wish I had realized sooner..." ...that I'm lesbian. Right? XD
I think the last bit is, what do you think is going to happen down the line now that Mariko's made this impossibly stupid decision? This can't work out well, she doesn't like the guy at all and is really kind of using him to move on. Think they'll go through a shocking realization thing, or Akko will get jealous and realize she loves Mari back, or someone will end up het and it'll be tragic?
*/SPOILERS*

*SPOILERS ZOMG!*
Well, Mariko ain't fallin' in love with that dood she just met in the subway, because no Shoujo-Ai compilation would like that. >_>
My guess is that she'll go out with him, she'll have fun, go home, cry, think about the guy, think about her girlfriend, might cry some more, call her, get her to cheer Mariko up, go to school, maybe more tension, then "I LOVE YOU" and "I LOVE YOU TOO" and all the girls'll just be either confessing for each other or going "took ya damn long enough."
Of course, I don't know this author, so I have no idea how she handled her previous stories. X_x
Needs more to-the-pointness, though. Tension isn't my strong suit...
