Summary

Sometimes you find what you yearn for…

When her dad gets a job overseas, Konatsu Amano has to leave the Tokyo life she’s always known and relocate to a small seaside town to stay with her aunt。 The move also means starting a new school surrounded by complete strangers, and it’s a lot to handle for a girl who has trouble with change。 But on her first day in her new town, Konatsu is instantly drawn to Koyuki, an older girl who is the sole member of the Aquarium Club。 Konatsu’s introverted tendencies are hard for her to overcome, but maybe she’s found something worth coming out of her shell for?

Koyuki and Konatsu have both started to see the other as important, but they’re still unable to be honest about their feelings。 This leads to frustrating days when they’re never in sync, and gradually they begin to drift apart。 Then one day Konatsu sees Koyuki and her classmate Kaede spending time together as if they’re the best of friends, and she can’t contain her agitation。 Konatsu and Koyuki feel so strongly about each other that they feel uneasy even when there’s nothing to worry about。

This volume was similar to the previous volume though we do see more Konastu and her feelings。She bonded with Koyuki because of the shared feeling of isolation but not that Koyuki will be graduating soon and is starting to interact with more people, Konatsu feels like she may lose her。 The party was nice。 It was sweet of her brother to follow her and see that she was okay and bring her more comfortable shoes cause he saw how uncomfortable she was in high heels。I read online that volume 9 is the This volume was similar to the previous volume though we do see more Konastu and her feelings。She bonded with Koyuki because of the shared feeling of isolation but not that Koyuki will be graduating soon and is starting to interact with more people, Konatsu feels like she may lose her。 The party was nice。 It was sweet of her brother to follow her and see that she was okay and bring her more comfortable shoes cause he saw how uncomfortable she was in high heels。I read online that volume 9 is the last volume so that means I wont get it until next year。 I am glad I waited almost a year to read these because reading them when they came out would just made me upset。 I understand that high school is a time of memories and trying to figure out what you want to do with her life, and separating from friends。 I've been through that and at 28 years old, I am still learning that。 I just wish they would talk to each other instead of holding it in。 How long can you suppress something before it just makes you depressed where you isolate yourself because you do not understand why you are feeling the way you are? This kind of feels what is going on with the main character。 Each knows that the other is important to them。 One wants to break free and try to be more open while the other is afraid of change and wants things to stay the same, and is struggling with those changes。 I really do hope that they talk in the next volume at least a little。 This miscommunication is becoming a bit too much。 。。。more

The girls are growing up and things are getting TENSE。 I can see why there is jealousy flying with the closeness of a friend, who is really only cheering them on。

Initially NetGalley allowed me to read a digital copy of this book in exchange for a review。 I wasn't able to access this copy before it expired, so I read the printed version of this book after it was released。 This is my review of the printed version。This volume was full of introspection from Konatsu on her relationship to Koyuki。 Koyuki is moving forward in her relation to others around her and Konatsu isn't sure how she feels about that。 There seems to be a bit of a disconnect/misunderstandi Initially NetGalley allowed me to read a digital copy of this book in exchange for a review。 I wasn't able to access this copy before it expired, so I read the printed version of this book after it was released。 This is my review of the printed version。This volume was full of introspection from Konatsu on her relationship to Koyuki。 Koyuki is moving forward in her relation to others around her and Konatsu isn't sure how she feels about that。 There seems to be a bit of a disconnect/misunderstanding between the two of them that I hope will be cleared up in the next volume。 (This one had a lot of strife and I really feel for the both of them。) 。。。more

The only thing that this volume made me feel was slightly irritated。 I feel like the girls are so stuck in their heads that they don’t realize their issue(s) can be solved with a serious conversation。I’m also more concerned with just how Konatsu and Koyuki’s relationship is impacting the both of them。 It seems like things are looking much more codependent, rather than a friendship with some mutual pinning。

快快的複習完前五集之後仔細的看最新台版單行本這套的醍醐味就是明明可以說清楚卻憋在心裡演小劇場的主角們啊雖然劇情不賴,但看完心情不佳就是了

I wrote in my review of the last volume "The series as a whole does, however, capture the uncertainty and isolation of the high school years really well。 Charming but slightly frustrating read," and things are much the same, if a little darker here。 One of the main characters is dipping dangerously into codependent dysfunctional relationship territory and I'd really like to see her snap out of it soon in the next volume。 Still worth reading but the characters' internal drama and the slightly dys I wrote in my review of the last volume "The series as a whole does, however, capture the uncertainty and isolation of the high school years really well。 Charming but slightly frustrating read," and things are much the same, if a little darker here。 One of the main characters is dipping dangerously into codependent dysfunctional relationship territory and I'd really like to see her snap out of it soon in the next volume。 Still worth reading but the characters' internal drama and the slightly dysfunctional relationship is starting to wear on me a bit。**Thanks to the artist, publisher, and NetGalley for a free copy in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

This is the saddest volume so far and I can’t believe I have to wait 3 months for volume 7。 This talks about being lonely even if you’re not alone and a connection between people due to loneliness like man this is SAD。

Whether or not you read this as yuri (and I do think it is), Konatsu and Koyuki's relationship is starting to head into dangerous territory。 One girl is trying to break out of her shell, but the other isn't sure that she's comfortable with that - because that means that she'll have to share the one person she's truly bonded with since her move。 Co-dependency isn't healthy no matter what the relationship, and this could be the moment that shapes the girls' relationship going forward - whether the Whether or not you read this as yuri (and I do think it is), Konatsu and Koyuki's relationship is starting to head into dangerous territory。 One girl is trying to break out of her shell, but the other isn't sure that she's comfortable with that - because that means that she'll have to share the one person she's truly bonded with since her move。 Co-dependency isn't healthy no matter what the relationship, and this could be the moment that shapes the girls' relationship going forward - whether they want it to or not。 。。。more

With Kaede and Koyuki getting closer, where does that leave Konatsu? Well, at a distance, as it turns out, both physically and emotionally。 As the girls start to drift apart, neither of them is particularly happy, but sometimes the most obvious fixes are the hardest to pull off。。。We won’t be putting this up as the feel-good book of the week, that’s for sure。 I don’t know that I have read anything this downbeat in a while, as everybody just keeps making themselves more miserable。 The art is on fi With Kaede and Koyuki getting closer, where does that leave Konatsu? Well, at a distance, as it turns out, both physically and emotionally。 As the girls start to drift apart, neither of them is particularly happy, but sometimes the most obvious fixes are the hardest to pull off。。。We won’t be putting this up as the feel-good book of the week, that’s for sure。 I don’t know that I have read anything this downbeat in a while, as everybody just keeps making themselves more miserable。 The art is on fire throughout, at least, illustrating the isolation and deepening distance, not to mention the general misery。Konatsu, in particular, is going through the ringer this time out。 By the time she sees Kaede and Koyuki palling around it’s way too late for Koyuki to maybe mention that fact to Konatsu。 This whole section captures that awkward moment of ‘we’re best friends and now suddenly we aren’t’ that defines many a broken friendship to a tee。And then it just keeps going。 Kaede’s trying her best to actually bring our leads together, yet her efforts are almost making things worse because she’s kind of including Koyuki’s supposed best friend in this new little trio instead, which has to sting。 Konatsu’s classroom scenes, especially when classes change, are all melancholy as heck。For her part, Koyuki is just so guarded that she’s definitely making things worse。 Besides being so open with somebody like Kaede, she makes an attempt with her class and while you might laugh at what occurs due to the difference in societal norms, that whole sequence just oozes with the way Koyuki ends up feeling awkward。You’d think the way Konatsu steps in would mark the turning point and all would be well, but this book just goes to show that there are some problems you can’t wrap up in a single volume of a manga。 Certainly not when the only person Koyuki seemingly won’t open up to is Konatsu herself。At the end, I’d argue that things are even worse than when they started。 Koyuki means well, but Konatsu has been utterly depressed this whole time and the former’s solution is so wrong-headed it’s painful。 Kaede even warns her that she’s not considering Konatsu’s feelings, but it falls on deaf ears。There’s a lot of frog and salamander imagery for you to digest, like a LOT, so people doing essays on symbolism for school file that one away just in case。 This book’s taking an interesting look at how friendships decay with minimal effort, how communication not actually communicated is entirely ineffectual (go figure), and what defines being alone versus being lonely。The latter’s really the meat of this。 It turns out Konatsu is the one who really doesn’t want things to change and is fine just being Koyuki’s special friend。 As Koyuki opens up to others, Konatsu’s afraid that she’ll lose that bond。 There’s also the obvious irony that this fear is partly what’s pushing them both apart。I’d say the downside is。。。 no yuri。。。 but this series has never really had any and the author’s continued dance around what this story even is makes me just want to shrug and not care。 It’s fine without it。 If they fall in love, fine, if they just stay ill-defined best friends, that works too。 The characters and story are strong enough just as they are。4 stars。 There’s a lot to make a thoughtful meal of here and it’s sure not the least emotionally painful thing I’ve read lately but it resonates。 It takes a lot to fix a friendship where two people are only talking to themselves and not one another, so it’s now a painful wait to see how it gets resolved。 。。。more

Augh。。。 so heartbreaking, it hurts。。。 get out the kleenex, my friends。。。Poor Konatsu。 She can't bear to lose Koyuki, yet she can't bring herself to tell Koyuki how she really feels。 It's tearing her apart。 As for Koyuki, she just grows sadder, not understanding what exactly has caused her dear, sweet Konatsu to push her away, and even avoid her。 If only these two would just sit down together, alone, and talk things over。 But, life isn't always that easy, is it?

Neither girl has been able to fully accept how they feel about each other, and aren't sure what to do。 Both are so scared of being hurt further, that they both withdraw, and the hurt in their hearts gets worse。 Kaede is trying everything she can to get the two girls on the same wavelength, but isn't having much luck。 Kaede seems to understand the unspoken love Konatsu and Koyuki have for each other, better than the two themselves do。 Maybe, just maybe, this breakdown after school will turn into a breakthrough。 Such a sad story, yet it holds the hope of so much promise, that could lead to so much happiness。 Will we get to see a happily-ever-after for Konatsu and Koyuki? It's hard to say at this point。。。 however, not every love story has a happy ending, I do know that much。 Let's hope this story isn't one of them。 。。。more
