Quite a melancholic voume, which is why it gets 5 stars.
If you've been following my reviews, you might've noticed that I'm a sucker for melancholy. And while it is sometimes a love-hate relationship with melancholic tropes, at the end of the day, I love it.
I won't spoiler what exactly the melancholic bits were – go read it for yourself! – but they were well done. Something I've more or less experienced myself (not in the exact same way, but similar), so it was easy to relate to all of the characters present. It's amazing and scary how difficult the topic can be. Though it wouldn't be that difficult, if society weren't so ableist and made life easier for disabled people.
Which the author also discusses. It's not even just disabled people who have it hard. Pretty much anyone who doesn't fall into the heteronormative way of living has it difficult. Which sucks.
But maybe this series can make a difference?

As for the romantic storyline, it's going quite well. Saki has less confidence when it comes to her crush – although that's due to the melancholic bits –, but Kanon on the other hand is getting more warm and comfortable with her. They held hands and had a movie date! As well as lots of communication. <3

Graphic: Ableism
Minor: Adult/minor relationship
Adult/minor relationship: A reference is made by a character to a potential adult/minor relationship between a teacher and student, but no relationships actually take place in any capacity.vantxian's review
