The secondhand embarrassment was so intense on this one! The characters are really learning who they currently are and who they want to be. There are explanations for behavior and apologies given which was great. The plot is really beginning to kick up, which is SO exciting!
The ending scene is pretty much my favorite part!

New character to create love triangle!! And he is adorable!! The main character is really cute and naive in a lovable way and the bad boy is confusing me with his mood swings.
Ohhh, this volume hit me WAY too hard in the feels. I'll be feelin' that for the rest of the week...
Something I haven't discussed until now is how much I like the female friendships in this series. Yes, the girls do compare themselves to each other and there's a heavy emphasis on physical appearance, but I like how supportive everyone is AND how there's no sabotage or girl hating. This is kind of rare for shoujo and I really appreciate it. Also, Yuri and Shuko are great friends and I love their interactions with Futaba. You can tell they really want to support each other and genuinely care about each other.
Speaking of Futaba, she really went all out in this volume and it was AWESOME! Here speech towards Kou didn't feel forced or out of character and it was nice seeing her grow from a timid, almost cowardly person to someone willing to break out of her shell to help others. She's not the best shoujo protagonist, but she's really great here.
That's all I want to say for now. Looking forward to the next volume!
