Il manga rimane divertente e si fa leggere con piacere anche se, rispetto al volume precedente, è un po’ dispersivo. Da manga come questo, ovviamente non mi aspetto chissà quale profondità, ma che la storia prosegua un po’ più speditamente, quello si.
Sasaki comunque è sempre più preso (ornai è chiaro che è una bella cotta), ma anche Miyano comincia ad avere le idee un filino più chiare e infatti a fine volume comincia a rendersi conto che anche lui forse prova qualche cosa.
Questi due sono proprio due adolescemi - grazie Mel per aver coniato quel termine -, terribilmente timidi e teneri che si girano attorno in continuazione. Anche Hirano e Kagi si girano attorno, Hirano soprattutto comincia ad avere qualche vaghissimo sentore…
Speriamo che le cose comincino a concretizzarsi in modo un po’ più compiuto nel prosieguo della storia.

I liked how the secondary character were given more of the spotlight for this one. Also, the main couple it's still cute

There's not much plot, similar to the previous volume. However, Sasaki & Miyano seem to be on the same page now with regards to their feelings.

I love the introduction of Nao-chan, Miyano's old crush. I also appreciate the extra chapters focusing on Hirano & his roommate, Kagiura.

Still not a fan of some of the characters' internal monologues as it doesn't seem natural/or at least how I would imagine it.

However, I am a huge fan of how the mangaka draws Sasaki, especially when he's jealous. I'm also a huge fan of how they draw the character's hands (though, sometimes it seems disproportionate).
