I didn't like this volume as much as the other ones before it. The 6th volume is mainly about Rin and Kouki's relationship, which just didn't seem as interesting in the volume. I'm also not happy about Daikichi and Kouki's mom.

These later books are not as enjoyable as the first four volumes.

I've got to say that when I started reading volume five I was incredibly disappointed that Rin was already in high school! I didn't understand why we had to fast forward so far! Now, after reading all up to volume seven I kind of get it. There's a bit more to write about when it comes to teenagers. Not to mention Rin-chan realizing she wants to know who her mother is!
The series shifts to focus more on Rin's relationship with Kouki than how Daikichi deals with being an instant parent. Rin is the same as a teenager that she was as a little girl. Serious, but cute and sweet. Studious and worried about how raising her has effected Daikichi.
We also get a glimpse of what happened between Nitani-san and Daikichi, but again, everything has shifted to Rin's point of view so we don't get into much depth.
So yeah, I get why she skipped to a teenage Rin, but I really wish maybe it hadn't happened so fast. Maybe we could have gone from elementary school to middle school and see Kouki in his rebellious stage as it was happening instead of in flashbacks.
But I'm not going to complain. I still love the series!

3'5 en realidad.
Vamos a ver, ¿por qué no están juntos de una vez Daikichi y la madre de Kouki por un lado y Rin y Kouki por el otro? Todo sería mucho mejor ahora.

The way the story bounces between Rin's high school and middle school days with each new chapter is a little confusing, but I enjoy the chance to be able to learn what happened in that missing chunk of time, so I am good with it. I am still enjoying the story, despite the problems between the characters!

I still love the characters, but this one fell flat for me. I don't know if it's just that I preferred the sweetness of Rin's younger years to the whole "mean girl messing everything up for a teenage Rin" theme of this one, or if my real problem is that I was spoiled about how the series ends and it has tainted my perspective of the events in this volume. I am still shipping for a couple that I know will NOT be getting together, and it's kind of a bummer.

I love how logical and practical Rin is, but I don't really care for all this relationship drama!

Another reminder that I don't understand how the Japanese view romantic relationships.
