As usual Yotasuba's adventure are the cutest!
This volume centers around her relationship with her stern grandma. I loved that character and the values she tries to teach Yotsuba, it was very sweet.
Can't wait for the next installment.

Yay, Yotsuba is back and kicking! I am so delighted to see this manga back again.

It took a long time for the manga to be back, and I hope it won't leave again, or any time soon at least. Since this manga is just so hilarious and funny. Yotsuba is a really fun (though a bit weird) kid, and it is fun to see how she views this world. Even though time moves slowly, you do see her grow. For instance in this book they are talking about that it is time for Yotsuba to sleep in her own room, in a bed (that still needs to be bought). I do hope that we see Yotsuba going to school, though I can't imagine someone as Yotsuba going to school. I feel kind of sorry for the teachers. ;)

Most of the manga is about Yotsuba's grandma who is coming for a visit. I just had a few laughs at Yotsuba trying to headbutt her grandma and then getting blocked by grandma. Yotsuba really loves her grandma, and it was so sweet to see how she acted around her. Though I think the whole present/souvenir thing was a bit too much, and I found it rude. Sure, she is a kid, but she shouldn't be begging for presents. Luckily her dad (and also grandma) also scold her.
I felt sad for Yotsuba at the end of the volume. Don't worry Yotsuba your grandma will visit again.

The manga just flew by, and now I have to wait for another volume again. Hopefully soon, since Yotsuba is just so much fun, and I love reading about her adventures and how she sees the world. How she struggles understanding new things, how much fun she has learning them.

Also that cover, just look at it and then realise what is about to happen. :D

All in all, I would recommend this manga, if you are looking for a fun, hilarious manga, be sure to check it out.

Very fun --- the hallmark of the volume is a visit from Yotsuba's grandmother and the resulting emphasis on cleaning. ("There's a way to make cleaning fun." "A way?" "Yes, the trick is... TAKE CLEANING SERIOUSLY!" "TAKE CLEANING... SERIOUSLY!?")

好療癒的作品啊~
作者的畫功非常細膩
衣服的皺折和身體超寫實的(風香的肥肉表示....)
臉就比較卡通化,應該是故意的吧~

四葉爸爸真是好父親
綾賴一家也對四葉很好,非常包容他
四葉很多時候其實是個很野的死小孩啊~綾賴三姊妹也不會生氣
雖然大人們有點太放心了吧,五歲小孩放他在外面亂跑
這種野放法應該是我們上上代鄉下父母的養法才是
放到今天這樣養心臟可要很大顆才行

劇情很貼近生活,四葉的行為很多都跟我家姪兒們很像
(不過綾賴家的小孩年齡差距有點神奇,綾賴媽媽應該超辛苦的XD)
這漫畫感覺滿適合當繪本念給五六歲小孩聽的
究竟這有生之年系列看不看得到四葉上小學呢?

Aw Yotsuba, you never disappoint. This installment was unusually poignant but still had lots of laughs.
