## Series
- title: Sora & Haena!
- slug: sora-haena-official-719b88

## Chapter
- number: 31
- release_date: 2025-05-06

### Summary
The narrative continues its dramatic departure from the initial slice-of-life premise, introducing a significant and contentious bullying subplot, seemingly explored through a flashback that some readers find tiresome. This new arc has sparked considerable criticism regarding character design, with many commenters pointing out a perceived trope where larger, more muscular female characters are depicted as aggressive, tanned, and "manly," in stark contrast to the lighter-skinned, "docile" protagonists. This portrayal has been labeled by some as a harmful stereotype, particularly concerning butch lesbians, with one reader noting that even the previously praised Taeram is only considered "nice" because she retains some "feminine" traits. The school environment is now being described as hostile, akin to a "yakuza place," with teachers allegedly exacerbating the conflicts. While the previous chapter highlighted positive reception for body diversity, the current focus on aggressive, muscular bullies has shifted reader sentiment towards criticism of the author's recurring design choices for "masculine" women. The central romance between Sora and Haena appears to be sidelined by this new conflict and the expanding cast.
