This will be my last review for 2017 *_* such a lovely volume. The drawings are so delicate and elegant and the story isn't overdramatic. Can't wait for the next one to come out in Italy

So we finally got a confirmation on the age gap in the story. I know a lot of people are struggling to accept this concept of such a large age gap, they feel weird and are saying they don’t like the storyline because of it. But I think we all need to remember that this is a story that originated in Japan, even though we are reading it in another language. In Japan, the age of consent is 16 (previously 13) and age gaps are not all that uncommon. We need to respect the culture that this manga comes from.

Aside from that, I still enjoyed this volume. There were still many cute scenes and it’s fun to watch Akatsuki struggling to know what to do. Both are awkward and struggling with this new relationship and it feels very real.
