mehsi's review against another edition
4.0
Re-read 2021: OHHH, this was a pretty good volume. Still not a fan of Saijo, and wish she would just leave, thankfully things happen and she doesn't show up so much. I am sorry, but I just think it was dirty of her and it just all felt so awkward.
Takeo has his birthday, there is Christmas and confessions, I loved how Nanako was totally different when she is dating (really, that was just so funny). And that last chapter was perfect, though I also felt a bit for Yamato. I mean, I get it Takeo, but that is not how relationships work. There are two parties in a relationship, not just you. So I am glad what Yamato did, even if Takeo didn't notice, haha.
Also I did get a bit tired, just like the first time, at how often Takeo goes I love you. I mean, it is cute, but it was almost every other page and it just felt like he didn't mean it/felt out of place. Especially give how behind he is with other things relationship-wise.
-------------------------
Bleh, it took Amazon.de 2 months to finally have this one in stock. I seriously hope that the next volume will just come out at the normal time. :|
The book itself was pretty good, but due to it being this late, I already knew the story from the anime. I am happy that the anime follows stuff pretty closely, but I find it is way more fun to have read something before, and then see it animated, then the other way around (see it animated first and then read about it).
This volume brings us several things! Something we have been waiting for (I won't spoil it, but I can just say that I was squealing soooooo hard when I saw it in the anime, and it is pretty nice in the manga as well, it took them long enough, they have been together for some months now). We have a Christmas Party, a Birthday Party (and New Years, as that is Takeo's birthday) and we also got confessions, stress and lots of cute romance between Takeo and Yamato.
Even though that thing that happened at the end, it was a bit awkward. I can't say much about it, because I want it to be a surprise, but it just looked a bit weird.
One thing that I missed, and that was quite a big thing in the anime, was the pregnancy of Takeo's mom. Here it is barely even talked about, and that is a shame. We all know how Takeo loves his mother, and even Yamato was really sweet during this time, and I miss that.
Suna is really a great guy, though I hope that he will also have some luck in the romance department. He seem to only catch the girls that like him and hate his friend. And we all know how Suna is protective of his best friend.
Ah yes, one thing I didn't particularly like, and something I also don't like in the manga, is the fact that Takeo keeps saying: I love her! or I love you! to Yamato. It happens almost every other page and sorry, but instead of me swooning, I am just annoyed with it and thinking if Takeo really means it, or if he is just joking around.
The art is still great, though at times it feels like Takeo is getting bigger and bigger (which isn't a wrong assumption considering that he is probably still growing).
I also love the various close-ups, and the backgrounds are lovely.
All in all, it was still a great manga volume and I really enjoyed it, but I truly hope that the next volume will come out a bit faster. Not 2 months or so later.

I alternate between shipping Yamato and Takeo to Suna and Takeo. Both make lovely couples.

I knew how cute this series was before starting the manga but it's really making me feel all happy like like first time I watched the anime, the Christmas scenes and then Takeo's birthday are amazing moments!

[ Releído en 2022. ]
¿Cómo describir lo preciosa que es la relación de Takeo y Yamato? Sencillamente no tengo palabras para explicar cuánto me hacen reír, llorar y tener todo el rango de emociones de una colegiala.
A este punto de la historia, Takeo y Yamato son una pareja estable, y básicamente todos a su alrededor piensan lo mismo. Sin embargo, una chica llamada Mariya, la cual había confesado su admiración por nuestro héroe en el volumen anterior, se da cuenta de que ya no sólo lo ve como su ‘maestro’, sino que realmente gusta de Takeo, como un hombre.
Ella, muy a su pesar, le confiesa sus sentimientos. Lo terrible del asunto es que él no quiere a nadie más que a Yamato y con toda la pena del mundo, la rechaza. Aun así, permanecen siendo amigos y todo se arregla sin mucho drama, después de todo, Takeo es una persona honesta 100% y jamás va a serle infiel a Yamato, no cuando es la chica con la que quiere pasar el resto de sus días.
Así pues, en este volumen también tenemos el clásico capítulo de navidad y debo admitir que no fue la gran cosa. Un par de amigos en común se hacen pareja y todo va de viento en popa. Es como si una energía alrededor de nuestra pareja principal atrajera a todos los demás, a ese gran cúmulo de cursilería (hey! De vez en cuando no hace daño.)
Algo que me encantó y me tuvo sonriendo tanto que me dolían las mejillas, fue el capítulo donde celebran el cumpleaños de Takeo (01 de enero, ¡capricornio también!). Ambos son tan preciosos que el corazón no me cabe dentro del pecho de tanta felicidad.
Y, por todos los dioses, ¡por fin se dan su primer beso! Aunque… como era de esperar, Takeo lo confunde con un bicho en sus labios, y no es hasta que Suna le explica que quizá fue su novia… besándolo. De inmediato, él corre hasta casa de Yamato para pedirle disculpas, intentarlo de nuevo y luego envolverse en un dulce y tierno beso.
¿Qué más les puedo decir? Esta es de esas historias que jamás podría olvidar, por más que quisiera. Son una pareja maravillosa y casi todo lo que hacen es lo que muchos deseamos tener en una relación.
¡Por supuesto, no puedo esperar al siguiente volumen!
