I do ship Rina and Mitsuki, although I feel a bit bad for Rina. But them having a friendship anniversary and Mitsuki giving her a present every year really is friend goals.

I wish Kotone were more open to Shizuku, when she's doing that much for their future. I know that everyone has different love languages, but it does seem pretty unbalanced sometimes...

Well, it seems the other volumes aren't on goodreads, so I'll just leave my thoughts here:

Volume 6:
- Started & finished: 7th March
- Rating: 4 stars

Damn, Yamada is such a matchmaker/best "man". XD
Really hope she's getting paid enough...

Yuzu's obliviousness towards gays (or lgbtq+ people in general?) is getting very annoying tho. Hope this is getting resolved by the end. It was funny at first and I get the author just keeps a running gag around, but too long is too long, indeed.

Wow, also, I think this was the first volume a male student showed up; answering my question about whether or not it was an all-girls school. Really tho, why did it take 6 volumes for a male student (not counting the ones from the festival, since they were from another school) to make an appearance in the manga, lmao?

Volume 7:
- Started & finished: 8th March
- Rating: 3.5 stars

Wait, so they're not going out and are just "kissfriends"?? Tf... _-_
But didn't they tell their friends in volume 3 or sth? At least Kaede knew...

And Kotone and Yuu moved in together, even though Haruka turned Sumisumi down, when Sumi asked if they could live together as sisters. Are you kidding me?

Somehow, since it came out that they're just "kissfriends", I can't really enjoy this anymore. Everything they do is just annoying. I found Yuu annoying before but brushed it off because this isn't a serious manga to begin with. But now... it just all feels like a joke, oof.
Haruka does so much for Yuu, it's unfair. Unbalanced relationships are a no-go for me.

Haruka and Shizuku should perhaps become a thing, since they care so much about their partner. At least it would be balanced then. -.-
Or I could go back to shipping Haruka and Mitsuki...

But hey, at least Rina and Mitsuki are getting closer.

I do like the new characters, Rei and Runa.

But, whaaat?? Kotone's fiancé is a girl???????

Volume 8:
- Started & finished: 8th March
- Rating: 4.5 stars

Well, damn, Sora really plotted this entire thing... but also, damn, kudos to her for keeping her "act" of being a boy up for so long.
I did find her creepy and suspicious before, but seeing everything from her perspective, makes her a pretty likable person. I don't ship her with Kotone or anything, but her and Naruka could've perhaps made a good pair.

It's nice that the dad got supportive after the reveal. <3

Also, Yuzu's movie was pretty good! She should totally go into the movie industry.
Oooh and Yuzu & Kaede got their happy ending, too. ^^

Oh my, tho, I didn't expect for Yuu to be the mature one. Although Haruka's obsession over Yuu was pretty childish and extreme the whole time, she was mostly mature when it came to skinship. (Or she was just too horny to care, lmao.)
But considering I found Yuu rather annoying the whole time, this was some nice character development.

Well, overall I found this volume to be the best, so it's kinda sad that the anime doesn't cover it. Either way, glad I read it (although I got annoyed a lot, when it's supposed to be one of those series that aren't meant to be that serious and most of it is comedy anyway... volume 8 was rather serious tho, so maybe that's one of the reasons I like it so much). I wouldn't count it as my favorite series and probably not even in the top 10, but it wasn't bad either.

Volume 8 was the best and that'll probably be the one I'll recommend. XD
