Just read them in whatever order you encounter them, it's just one of those weird things about how it was released. Other than repeating the first chapter/meeting of the two I don't think there is anything in either that contradicts or "spoils" what happens in the other one. There also aren't IIRC too many "0.5" chapters after a while.

E: The only problem is that storylines get interrupted in the kissmanga releases, only to get resumed later. If you care about that then you'd be better off reading it on batoto which seems to group the storylines together.

Yandere Kanojo does a really good job of growing its characters beyond the initial hook of "yankee girl" and "boring glasses dude" and has some good dramatic moments as a result.

The only real negative is that it is not actually about Reina's mom, because she is by far the best character.

like not even 5 chapters in and the characters have shown actual growth already, complete with some stuff that some non-4koma series take a hundred chapters to do. Pretty impressed!

Nah, dogs have some ability to understand and care about human emotion due to living alongside humans for thousands of years.

I mean, a dog would still kill a mouse-sized human, but only because they wouldn't identify it as human in the first place.

It depends greatly on the temperament of the individual dog and the breed. (This is also true of cats, really.)

Tbh my cat (if it could recognize me which is unlikely) would probably still kill me by crushing me via loving head butts or drown me in slobber, just imagine that sprinkler scene from Honey, I Shrunk The Kids and you get the idea

Cats really only have two varieties: way too smart and an rear end in a top hat or extremely stupid. Both are equally lovable.

Cats have also been living alongside humans for thousands of years, but as equal partners not servants.

If we suddenly get small and qualify as prey, that's not their problem.

Actually I believe the manga has shown that Cats Are Bad as well as the value of having A Good Dog.

The best analogy I ever heard with regards to cats and dogs was that if your dog was suddenly the size of your car he'd still be your best friend. If your cat was suddenly the size if your car you'd be dead before you could reach the spray bottle.

Nah, it was more of a symbiotic relationship between dogs and humans originally (and I guess still is). Same goes for cats (if you consider eating pests like mice/rats to be a "service" they provided), though there wasn't anywhere near the same social interaction between human and cats as there was with dogs.

Not to get too into detail here, but this is more accurate to people than you might think, as well. Though without the cannibalism thing.
