Oh wow, this volume. Kimi ni Todoke keeps getting better and better. This one features various wonderful things.

1. Continuation of the wonderful, lovely confession scene + the Kiss!
I absolutely loved it, I cried, I cheered, I laughed, it was so wonderful to see Sawako and Kazehaya getting together at last. Finally they can talk and talk they do.
I must say I loved Sawako a lot in this, and you really notice that she has changed through 17 volumes to get where she is now in volume 18. Kazehaya holds a whole speech, which in short comes to the conclusion of that he is a loser. To what Sawako replies with this lovely speech, which I just have to share:

"Haven't you realized yet? That smile that you think is selfish, that smile has the power to cheer everyone up, to cheer me up. You said that you're scared. You're the only one who can hurt me. You don't know how happy what you just said made me. You're the only one who can move my heart. I don't care if things get awkward or if we fight. As long, as the one who I'm awkward around and fighting with is you. You don't have to worry about doing what's right."

This was just beautiful, I cried. Sawako has grown so much, that she can now express her feelings like this. I am so happy for both of them, they deserve each other.

And ahhh all the kisses *swoon*. They were all so perfect.

Of course let's not forget the other 2 couples. Chizu and Ryu, I am still hoping and cheering for those 2, and Ryu already made a good start by giving her that wonderful christmas present (and being totally embarrassed by it when he finds out she showed it to her friends). :)

Then we have Ayane-chan, she finally found her prince charming, in Kento!!!! *cheers and squeals* Sooo happy that those 2 are now a couple, finally Ayane-chan found someone who thinks she is special and who really likes her.

This volume was super special, and I can't wait for 19 to come out in a few months!!

Ibalik ang nabawas na pogi points kay Kazehaya!
fast-paced

"each time we meet i'm the one who falls deeper in love" THEY'RE SO CUTE

Ahhh it's all just so adorable and heart aching!
