W finally get some backstory on Yashiro! I really like her character and her romantic relationship was a great juxtaposition of Tai and Nao's. I loved seeing Misaki become more assertive and showing that he cares about her rather than blowing her off. Also, their teasing banter is adorable, they are so meant for each other.

~4/5
(Contains some spoilers.)

This series is just so utterly adorable, god!

In the first half, we conclude the drama with Futami. This really just proves how great a guy Onise is, because even though there's a guy after his girl, he's okay with it. The trust between him and Nao is so complete, it's heartwarming and ridiculous. There's no doubt to the reader or to them, that she's going to choose Onise. But there's also the fact that Onise still completely wants to be friends with Futami. Their bromance is real.

The second half is taken up with Yashiro's messed up love life. We meet her boyfriend, who isn't a bad guy, but isn't loyal to her either. Misaki gets very upset about this, and wants to fight on her behalf, even when she doesn't want him to. I'm rather impressed with how we see that Yashiro is being cheated on, and that's bad, but also that she loves her boyfriend and he loves her, and it's not bad like it could be. But how she decides that she does deserve more. It was an impressive plot line all around.

This series is so sweet it should literally give you cavities. It's so over the top goodness and I just love every bit of it.

Misaki's and Yashiro's relationship is much more interesting than Nao's and Onise's, who are both overbearingly kind and sweet. Their kindness-at-all-costs attitude is not really a message I agree with--you really shouldn't be friends with people who vow to break up your relationship. The relationships develop too fast for my liking.

The main characters are so adorable but I hate the Ikumi plot. He is not okay

I am enjoying this series. I am now officially more than halfway through and I can say that it is super cute and I don't think that this series will have anything problematic in it like blackmail etc prevalent in other mangas because this series is so cute and innocent. This volume wraps up the plotline of Futami and then the later chapters focus on the side characters and their potential romance. I enjoyed that plot line because we got to see more development and emotional growth from characters which we only saw on the surface level. Overall, I did enjoy this volume but I also felt like nothing happened but things did happen. I think I'll end up forgetting about this volume in a few months time but that does not mean that this was a bad book. I really enjoyed it but the plot is taking more of a back seat and now the series is focusing on character development.
