Daytime Shooting Star, Vol. 12 by Mika Yamamori

5.0

“When the stars fall into darkness I will quietly shine for you. During happy times, during sad times, I will always be there for you. Your hand, your smile, your everything. For as many years to come, I shall watch from the place closest to you. My existence will become you daytime shooting star.”

As expected... my heart is filled with both happiness and sadness, because of an ending that is bittersweet. I always knew it would be this way, but that doesn't lessen my tears. Even with that, I still love and adore this story.

SpoilerDon't get me wrong, I'm happy for Mamura and Suzume, they're adorable together, and in some ways he's better for her, but I just can't let go of my love for Satsuki. He is the 'Daytime Shooting Star', and he always will be. It's kind of funny that when I watch the movie (which I watched before reading the manga), by the end I was rooting for Mamura, yet somehow by the end of the manga I was was rooting for Satsuki. I really am hopeless lolol.
