Due to a variety of concerns all coalescing at once, we’re sorry to say that the comic will not be updating next week (Tuesday, June 9th, and Thursday, June 11th). We’re sorry about the inconvenience!

Of all of the times I have sympathized with Naoto over the course of the comic, this is probably the one where I’ve felt it the most.
She makes some good points, <3;;
Oh, Naoto-kun. Please, step out of the mysteries for a minute. LIFE does not have an answer that you can deduce. It just IS. And romance and relationships are the same way. Also DON’T BE SO DANG HARD ON YOURSELF! D:
Yep! Not everything can be planned for and dissected!
Naoto’s self-esteem seems strangely…bimodal, I guess you can call it? Like, she’s wholly and justifiably confident in her detective skills; she’s mostly set off when people fail to give her the proper respect in that field (by virtue of age, sex, whatever).
And then you get to questions like the one she asks in panel 3, which seems to reflect some pretty bottom-of-the-barrel self-esteem for anything not relating to PI-ing – like she’s genuinely unaware of (or at the very least does not acknowledge) any reason somebody might like her outside of that.
