now that the series has some durability to it, we get the remarkable flashback. The premise of the series is that Futaba as well as Kou were interested, then separated, then reunited. When they satisfy again, Kou behaves differently, as well as in Io Sakisaka’s Ao Haru trip volume 4, we lastly discover out why.
Family flashbacks show why Kou provided up being a top student, why he seems estranged from his sibling (a instructor at their school), as well as why he altered his name. On top of which, buddies Yuri as well as Futaba are still navigating their relationship, because they both like Kou however don’t want to let him come between them.
(In passing, since there’s a great deal much more to the story, however I was touched that “spending time together eating as well as viewing TV is much more important” is treated as a considerable life lesson. I can get behind that.)
It’s the occasional especially insightful moments that keep me included in this manga series, as when Futaba is coming up with a series of progressively less believable reasons not to leave, as well as it’s made remove that Kou understands precisely what she’s doing. Or when Futaba says,
I’m not searching for the old Kou anymore. I’m trying to discover about the new Kou.
That’s a considerable distinction that shows exactly how Futaba is maturing.
As before, the author’s notes are insightful. This time, it’s about “radiant… women in love” who “do things I might never do.” She’s right, that innocent enthusiasm can be appealing as well as inspiring. Fundamentally, the series boils down to “does he like me? does he like her? what ought to I do?”, however it’s that authorial respect for the feelings of young women as well as their very first like that keeps it fresh as well as interesting.
