As always, endlessly sweet with endless spice. I really liked how all the topics were handled in this volume from proposals to dream jobs. Koyori’s pragmatic outlook is so great and this is the definition of a good relationship where they lift one another up!

Nice to see Hijiri being the one with the issues instead of it being Koyori. They're cute and I like seeing an early adult relationship going through modern struggles. I love all the outfits we see the characters wearing. I'm not as much a fan of how this series rinse-repeats having an issue that could be solved with a simple conversation.

I like that Koyori ultimately ends up being the one who proposes for real. Though, ofc with these two it happens while they're banging.

I was just waiting for the talk of marriage—finally! After all the sex and some sprinkle of hesitation... and a dash of sex... and a little bit more sex, we got here! Aren't they getting tired though? Because I am.

I preferred this manga when it was more realistically awkward, but now their relationship is literally perfect. Literally. The only issue was the towel on the sofa thing, but that was minor and it's fixed.

Spoiler

And now it had some potential for tension with being transferred at work, but then it was immediately resolved. (I'm also not a fan of women just following their husbands around because of their job especially when she is being promoted and doing so well and has a nice work environment and loves her job and has literally no other reason to change jobs right now.)

Even healthy relationships struggle more than that. And do they need to fuck every single chapter? That must be some contractual obligation for the mangaka I swear. It's tiresome and it honestly gets in the way of much-needed conflict in my opinion. (I say this as someone who loves slice of life romance. I, like everyone, have a breaking point.) It's still sweet and fun but more ordinary now, not as special and stunning as the first few volumes were for me.
