Favorite yuri work

20s man

I like the combination of a flamboyant girl who has never been in love and a black-haired bitch. At first, the two repel each other. But they get along well with each other and become attracted to each other, which is a common pattern in stories, but it's interesting. The other characters are also cute, and I never get tired of watching them.
