My Love Story Volume 5 was a little messy and I didn't like that at all. My Love Story usually has two or more storylines within one volume. The first story was about one of Takeo's classmates having a crush on him, the second story was about a Christmas party that Takeo and his friends threw, and the third story was about Takeo and Yamato's first kiss. I liked the last two stories, I didn't like the first story. 

Any storyline surrounding women who are NOT Yamato or Takeo's mom are of no interest to me. So far, the only thing the author has done involving other women is making these other women have crushes on Takeo so it adds "drama" to his relationship with Yamato. I'm not here for it. It's boring. 

I did like the two Christmas stories, those were very cute. I couldn't stop smiling while reading the second half of this manga. 

Overall, I enjoyed most of the manga so I'm giving it 4 stars out of 5
