This was just as good upon reread as the first time!
I really love the characters and college setting. While I don't consider the first volume a full 5 star read, it sets us up for the rest of the series that I absolutely love!

The absolutely emotional, compassionate, heartfelt storytelling of the characters in I Hear The Sunspot is truly perfect. It made me feel connected to them in stunning ways. Taichi's honesty, the way he looks out for and tries to make sure his friend is cared for, and the way he'd go to bat for him every time, is truly lovely. And the way in which Sugihara admits his feelings, the way his own fears and hopes come to the surface, and the rawness of the feelings between both characters shine to the surface make the story even more comforting to read. As someone who has hearing loss as well, I Hear The Sunspot is a staple read for me that I will be holding close to my heart again and again.

logging as a review of the entire series so far! i love this very much... the nuanced conversations about being hard-of-hearing vs. deaf vs. hearing is very interesting and well fleshed-out and just makes me think this author really cares about the story they are creating. also the art is gorgeous... and i am quite fond of the slow progression of intimacy... and though some of kouhei and taichi's fights/misunderstandings might feel dramatic i feel like they still feel very realistic and grounded! also they're my bisexual comrades... oh yea

I really enjoyed this. I actually really liked how open-ended this was, and how slow the plot was. Both characters are also very sweet.
