Cheeky Brat, Vol. 13

なまいきざかり [Namaikizakari] #13

by Mitsubachi Miyuki, Alethea Nibley (translator), Athena Nibley (translator)

I just remembered how amazing it is...to go to school and know you’ll be there.

That. Was. So nerve-racking! I mean, I’m glad it happened, and it’s not as though I didn’t like it, but...pull yourself together, Yuki! You can survive a hot springs trip with your boyfriend! Wait, why the heck is the rest of the team here?! Yeah, I’m not sure I’m ready for a second round, but, well―this was supposed to be OUR romantic getaway, not a graduation trip. Or...is this his way of saying he’s over me?

I was kicking my feet, screaming into my pillow and begging to be struck down where I stood so I could die happy after that last chapter.
Yuki actually properly communicated, Naruse said “oh baby” which might as well have been the last thing I witnessed before death. And he sprinted off to go kick ass but violence? Oh no. Drawing a turd on Hakamada and with it saying “I’m a piece of shit” oh yes please.
(Hakamada Kissed Yuki without her consent and knowing she is with Naruse)

Me gustó... pero lo senti repetitivo.

Volume 13 runs from chapters 71 to 76. I love seeing them grow and get into the same college but I'm getting exasperated by how frequent Yuki hesitates. It's been years and she's still annoying. Hakamada, too. That guy needs to know how to move on and shit. I hope they stop using him for drama and make the guy move on ffs.

Come sempre trovo questa serie molto diverte e dolcissima. Naruse e Shizuka poi sono spassosissimi.

[Mary · Rating 5 out of 5]

Nella prima parte Yuki e Naruse affrontano il momento dopo la loro prima volta e quanto ho riso ahahha
Yuki è imbarazzatissima e Naruse cerca di non farle altre pressioni e lasciarle il suo spazio… risultato? Yuki che si fa altre paranoie pensando di aver sbagliato qualcosa e pensa che Naruse si stia allontanando.
Ho adorato questa parte perché Naruse è sempre più maturo e dolce con Yuki, non mostra molto le sue emozioni e per questo magari è difficile interpretare cosa vuole e cosa pensa però per fortuna dice sempre quello che pensa e non si risparmia nulla.
Poi impossibile non menzionare la parte che ho preferito: Naruse che arrossisce ❤️

La seconda parte vede Naruse che diventa studente universitario (non vedevo l’ora). Fin qui tutto ok però si affacciano nuovi problemi: 1) Hakamada si è iscritto alla stessa università e non vuole proprio mettersi da parte; 2) arriva un’altra minaccia…Suwa! Ma dico io perché?!?!
Oltre questo, Yuki teme la popolarità di Naruse perché ha paura di essere accantonata ma al tempo stesso non vuole essere appiccicosa e dire cosa fare a Naruse.

È vero che in ogni volume si presenta sempre l’ennesima difficoltà e ci sono sempre fraintendimenti, normalmente odierei tutto questo ma non è questo il caso! Mi piace proprio vedere come Naruse e Yuki affrontano e poi risolvono i loro problemi e ne escono più uniti di prima.
Magari sotto molti aspetti a volte può risultare esagerato, però lo trovo al tempo stesso realistico. Più volte mi capita, infatti, di rivedermi in Yuki e nei suoi mille pensieri.

Yuki and Naruse have taken the next step in their relationship, but along with that intimacy comes a whole new set of emotions to work through. Additionally, another school year has passed, and Naruse is now joining Yuki as a college student. Everyone tells her she needs to keep an eye on her handsome boyfriend... but she trusts him! Right?

One thing I like about this manga is how realistic it can be, especially in terms of the coming-of-age aspects of this romance story. Both Yuki and Naruse are handling their first truly serious romantic relationship, and that means that they're figuring out who they are while also trying to understand someone else. It's a time that's both magical and adorable and gives you the butterflies, but is also studded with anxiety, self-doubt, and frustrations--and sometimes, those frustrations make you want to shake a character and shout, "Get it together!"

When I started this volume I was smiling and really loving the dynamic between Yuki and Naruse and how they were communicating so well. So what’s the issue you may ask? Was it the trip and the annoying guys that showed up? Yeah a little but I would’ve given a 4 star if that was the big issue but no Hakamada has to conveniently show up at the same college as Yuki and Naruse(honestly its a stretch that they are in the same school but I let that go) and once again has to be like oh I like you 🙄🙄. This forced triangle(if you can even call it that) is not cute. Hopefully we move away from this stupid dynamic and focus more on Yuki and Naruse being open and honest with each other since that is when Cheeky Brat is at its best.

[Gwyn Vanoni · Rating 3 out of 5]

Cheeky Brat is a thoroughly enjoyable young romance. Yuki is the high school basketball team manager, a very stoic and dedicated individual who is always professional in her job and in her personal life. Stumbling upon her when she's showing an unusual bit of emotion, Haruse, the team's cheeky playboy, is intrigued with Yuki and pursues her romantically. Their romance continues to be about opposites that attract. Her dedication to avoiding romance is infuriating, but it doesn't make it any less enjoyable to read. I see many comparisons to Maid Sama, but My Little Monster also comes to mind. I enjoyed the story, and especially the likeably awkward third point on the love triangle. Additionally, the illustrations, especially those of the basketball players, are excellent.

Für mich persönlich war der dreizehnte Band ein wenig wie ein Lückenfüller. Es sind keine großartigen Dinge passiert, besonders der Anfang hat sich für mich sehr langatmig angefühlt. Erst mit Shos Schulabschluss und dem Start seines Studentenlebens hat der Spannungsbogen beträchtlich zugenommen. Ich denke, dass das Studieren an derselben Uni definitiv für mehr Zweisamkeit zwischen Sho und Yuki, aber vermutlich auch für Konflikpotenzial sorgen wird. Außerdem hat das Ende des Bandes ein Stück weit angeteasert, dass Suwa durchaus Interesse an Yuki zeigt. Damit würde ein weiterer Rivale (neben Hakamada) dazukommen. Ich bin gespannt, was der Folgeband zu bieten hat. 👀

Yuki and Naruse have taken their relationship to the next level... Naruse has graduated high school... there's a double date to a hot spring... and a new college year starts. And there's a whole new barrage of anxiety and insecurities for Yuki (and Naruse) to wade through.

But I'm so happy; my boy Hakamada is still in the story. I couldn't keep the smile off my face and I hope I see more of his sunshine smiles.

This is an “ehhh” series for me and I keep trying to drop it but then I come back!!!! I don’t get it!
But I think I was wanting to see if Naruse and Hakamada end up at the same college, therefore on the same team … which would be interesting!
AND IT DID! I might have to read on a little longer… LOL

[haya · Rating 5 out of 5]

Don’t mind me I’m just a puddle of swoon over here. No matter what happens naruse always makes sure to communicate with yuki no matter what’s going on and I LOVE that. It’s so refreshing and it’s rare to see in manga. Him doing the heavy lifting in the relationship vs. her. I’m here for it!! He reassures her, makes time for her and most importantly adores her. My favorite volume yet!!

[Khari · Rating 3 out of 5]

ちょっとつまらなくなってきた。。。三角関係があまりないからかな？
最近この二人が肉体的進歩しかないの。。。私は精神的な進歩が面白い。キャラが成長して関係が含まって両方がお互いに理解しているとか。スキップビートの方がいい。30巻以上でまだ本当のキスしていない！！！でもキャラがドンドン成長したり動いたり変わったり面白い。これはずっと同じ、成瀬は彼女を虐めって彼女は反応なし成瀬は落ち込む。彼女は悩んだり何もしないで不安して怒って成瀬から慰める。はい。おわり。つまらない。

[Mary · Rating 4 out of 5]

Este manga va tan lento, que me aburro en algunas partes. De veras no entiendo porque a Yuki le cuesta tanto trazar la línea, o sea, sabe que Hakamada está enamorado de ella y aún así ella le deja acercarse y estoy segura que con el senpai de la universidad será igual 🙄

[Jimena Gómez · Rating 5 out of 5]

I love this couple... Y & N😘😘😘
They're so cute ❤❤❤

Ca y est, c'est le grand bain de la fac et de ses surprises !

[Gohan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Aku harap volume selanjutnya (terjemahan bahasa indonesia) akan rilis secepatnya!
Walaupun pada akhirnya udah baca sampai volume terbaru lewat web, tapi tetap pengen versi cetaknya...
