This one was another great addition to the series. I feel like we are finally taking steps to progressing in the romance plotline of the story. The characters are admitting their faults slowly and trying to better themselves, which this story does a really good job discussing. I think it is pretty common for stories to have characters who don't grow or admit fault in certain situations, so it is always nice to see.

This gets very cutely gay this time out, as people are finally starting to get the notion that they might like other people. We’re not exactly there just yet, but it’s not hard to think that Saki’s upcoming recital might be a climactic moment of sorts.
Kanon, however, is the one whose cool is being lost on the regular this volume. Saki definitely has her moments, but this is Kanon coming to terms with what we, the yuri-loving reader, have known for ages regarding the both of them.
It was really sweet to see Kanon meeting up with her former friend, Ayano, to bake cream puffs. Their mended friendship and how they both learned from the experience was executed well, even if Kanon still has trauma from how she acted.
This is a small thing, but I appreciated the way the baking turned out. Not just the way Ayano slices through the nonsense of the story, or Saki’s music lesson goes to some places of longing at the same time, but also that Kanon experiences some success with her baking rather than being strictly terrible at it.
These two silly geese spend so much time dancing around one another, that recital invitation is such a huge issue that shouldn’t be one (but believably so!), and then there’s a great segue into the nature of love because the older girl who taught Saki piano is coming to that recital.
This is a well done chunk of story because it isn’t a miscommunication; Kanon flat-out asks about this other person. But she doesn’t like the answer. Now that’s good writing, seriously. It’s downright refreshing compared to how many series would handle it.
Kanon speaks with the writing teacher at the school and I really appreciated the translation notes for this and the way it tackled the original text. There’s care in this story from all sides.
The final chapters basically involve Kanon going crazy trying to work out her feelings, plus Saki accidentally doing things that are making Kanon catch feelings so hard. It’s not original, but I always love moments like these, so whatever.
It’s a good volume. I don’t think it manages the highs of the previous, even though it brings its cast together all over the place. They use Rinne really well too, but we don’t see her new friend once and that was a shame because that storyline added a lot to the last volume.
4.5 stars - still, I think this is quietly super good stuff and, even without a wow moment, it manages to be a delightful progression and good time all around. I’ll let it have a full 5 stars because it’s so well written and enjoyable.

Mira, no sé dónde termina este y dónde empieza el vol 9, pero Kanon está sobreviviendo a puro gay panic y no me puede hacer más feliz. FINALMENTE LE TOCÓ A ELLA Y NO SOLO A SAKI!! Y siguiendo la tónica de que no sé donde termina, pero en caso de que sí sea de este volumen me rompió cuando Kanon quería llamarla después del concierto, quería escuchar su voz, solo quería hablar con ella pero por ser sorda obviamente no puede y que nunca había deseado escuchar tanto como en ese momento y conchetumare que me dolió 😭

4.5 stars
Wieder ein richtig toller Band! Sakis Gefühle für Kanon sind nochmal stärker geworden, da sie Kanon in dem Musikstück wiedererkennt. Kanon jedoch ist sich ihren Gefühlen, die für die anderen recht offensichtlich erscheinen, aber immer noch nicht ganz bewusst. Die Abschlussszene lässt aber ein wenig Hoffnung aufkommen, dass es bald was wird. Generell finde ich die Entwicklung, sei es im Klavier spielen, den Beziehungen und auch den Gefühlen, sehr schön. Die Charaktere lernen dazu, verstehen einander besser und können sich mehr in die anderen Person reinversetzen. Mag die Reihe einfach so gerne und freue mich jedes Mal auf den neuen Band!

# CHAPTER 30 REVIEW
I really liked that Kimi Ni Todoke-esque chapter but that cliffhanger...? It feels like a repeat but in the worst way. The lazy way that most stories use it. A miscommunication that only happens because a character walks away at a very inconvenient time. Hmmm. I mean, it kind of makes sense? But I didn't know Kanon had a crush on Saki that much to get jealous so it feels like it came out of nowhere. But maybe Kanon doesn't realise the extent of her crush either? And that's the point? Maybe if she becomes aware of the extent of her feelings for Saki next chapter it'll be okay. I think that's why it's sending me red flags. Plus, we just had this conflict with regards to the hearing loss subject. Now, we're getting the same conflict again right after but for a false love triangle? Totally haven't seen that one before... nope.
Agh, anyway. I don't know. i'm worried the next chapter is gonna fall into some cliche themes which is frustrating because this chapter had a unique take on it by making it related to Kanon's hearing loss when she and Saki want Kanon to go to Saki's piano recital! Sigh, we'll see
7/10
NOTES
1. Tanabe exploding with excitement for Saki’s piano recital <:]
2. Oh wait my dumbass forgot Kanon can’t enjoy the piano recital. There’s no speaker to provide vibrations T-T
3. AW AND RINNE GIVING SAKI ADVICE THE CHARACTER GROWTH AAAAA
4. Rinne is so real! An not getting an invite is lonely!
RINNE: [via phone call] ‘Aren’t you forgetting the most important thing, though?’
SAKI: ‘Fweh?’
RINNE: [via phone call] ‘What do you want?’
5. Ah and we get Kanon’s POV—noice but also nahhh she figured it out and is blaming herself <:[
KANON’S MUM: ‘If you say that you really want to go see it, won’t that be fine?’
6. Ah, from me to you is the theme of this chapter :)
7. WHAT DID THE MUM SAY?
8. THEY SKIPPED CLASS TOGETHER CAUSE THEY BOTH FORGOT TO DO THEIR MATHS HOMEWORK AW
KANON: ‘I want to see you playing up on stage, Saki.’
9. LESGOO
KANON: ‘Gimme a pamphlet!’
SAKI: ‘Why not get one from your mum?’
KANON: ‘I want you to give me one.’
10. This is flirting
KANON: [thinking] ‘She seems happier about her than me coming~~’
11. NAH KANON. IT’S SO OVER. SHE’S GOT A CRUSH ON SAKI

NOTES
1. Okay, Saki explained who her piano teacher was. That’s good. I think we cleared the cliche! :D
KANON: [nervous] ‘So is it the same?’
MIURA-SENSEI: [judging] ‘I don’t think so.’
2. LMAO THIS PANEL
MIURA-SENSEI: ‘I’ve had a lot of people come to me for advice about it.’
KANON: ‘…?’ [weary] ‘What sort of people?’
MIURA-SENSEI: [beat] ‘I’ll answer because you asked, okay?’
KANON: ‘Please do.’
MIURA-SENSEI: ‘People who are in love. Just like now.’
3. AHAHAHA
KANON: ‘You’re wrong about me, got it?!’
MIURA-SENSEI: ‘Eeh… Experience is the best teacher.’
KANON: ‘MIURA-SENSEI!’
4. LMAOOOOOO
KANON: [buries her face in her palms] ‘He’s so wrong.’
5. THIS CHAPTER XD
KANON: [thinking] ‘WHY DO I THINK OF SAKI AT EVERY CHANCE I GET?!’
6. LMAOOOO SHE’S SO SMITTEN. SHE SMACKED HER HEAD ON THE DESK AHJWKHAGLKAHWG
RINNE: ‘That’s why you’ve been so spacey. Pff.’
KANON: ‘RINNE?!’
7. The gay denial/panic is hilarious
8. Rinne just outed Saki for communicating with her about the recital XD
KANON: ‘I don’t know how much distance I should put between me and my friends… or how to act around them.’
9. It’s crazy because I kind of buy Kanon’s denial because 1. she’s probably never been close to anyone before 2. she socially isolated herself for YEARS
RINNE: ‘I also look up to how she goes about interacting with everyone~’
KANON: [thinking] ‘Looking up to … …I probably do want to become like Saki.’
10. DAMN RINNE
11. This chapter was so funny. Glad we skipped the whole love triangle direction I thought it was going in :P

This mangaka really loves cliffhangers. I hate it so much :(
The Moon on a Rainy Night Review
5/5 stars
This will be a spoiler free review. Onto the review!
I picked up this manga at the library because it was supposed to be about a girl who is a musician. I don't read a whole lot about musicians, despite being one myself. People irl are always telling me about books they found about musicians or music in general, and I usually have no desire to read any of them, because most of the time they’re about real people or events. I don't like reading about real stuff unless it's to learn about something in particular.
Another reason I don't usually read stuff about musicians is that whatever most people think classical musicians are like, I’m nothing like that. People give me all these book recommendations, thinking I'll be super excited to read about a character who’s obsessed with Beethoven, meanwhile I'm over here listening to Morton Feldman and Krzysztof Penderecki. For context, Feldman wrote really quiet music that goes on and on and on and on for hours at a time, and Penderecki wrote music that sounds extremely scratchy and ugly. I’ll link something each of them wrote in the comments so you can get an idea of what I mean.
Before anyone gets on my case, I did at least try watching Your Lie in April a long time ago. I managed to get all the way through it, but it wasn't my thing. I’ve heard a lot of people say it’s great to watch whenever you feel creatively burnt out, and I mean yeah, it does help with that. But the story is about music contests, and that’s my least favorite thing about being a musician. I hate that the music world is so competitive, when the entire point of music is that it’s a way of creatively expressing yourself. What’s there to judge? Everyone experiences music differently and enjoys different types of music. Music isn't supposed to be about how perfectly you can play all the notes. It's about emotion, not who’s better than who.
So why did I pick this manga up if I don't typically like stuff about musicians? Because I knew the main focus wouldn't be about music. Music would just be the backdrop for the story. That’s my ideal type of story about musicians, because then I won’t feel like I’m seeing a particular author's thoughts about what most musicians are like. Does that make sense? I’m just really tired of seeing stories where I have this expectation that I'm supposed to love it simply because it's about music, but then once I read/watch it I don't end up caring at all because I can’t relate to the characters or the story.
This manga follows a girl who plays the piano as she tries to befriend her new piano teacher’s daughter who’s in her class. Her piano teacher’s kid is hard of hearing, which makes it difficult to figure out how to communicate with her. There is a little bit in here about being a musician, but it's not the typical stuff that people think classical musicians go through. We mostly see the piano girl struggling to get used to a new teacher’s style, which is something anyone of any hobby could relate to, not just musicians.
The majority of the story is about the two girls becoming friends (maybe more than friends :3), and what sorts of struggles they have because it’s hard for the main character to figure out how to work around the other girl’s disability. There’s a lot of great stuff in here about what it’s like to be hard of hearing. What sorts of accommodations might help someone, what kinds of situations this might affect that you likely wouldn’t think about being an issue, and the stigmas surrounding being disabled.
I know someone personally in my life who’s hard of hearing, so a lot of this isn't new to me, but there were still some things I hadn't considered. For example, if there are too many sounds happening at once it can be hard to focus on one person talking, because it might be difficult to filter out background noises. There’s a lot of great information in here, especially if you’re someone who doesn't know a lot about this. I just happen to already know a bunch of this already.
Overall, I really liked this series. It's super cute. As of right now it's unfinished, so I’ll have to wait and see where it goes. I’ve read six volumes so far, which is all that's out in English, but I know there are at least a couple more that are waiting to be published in English.
Have a nice day/night everyone!

Back on track. Instead of a bunch of subplots with peripheral characters like the past few books, this one is just about the main characters and it's magic. The books move at the speed of life so there's little drama, just two teen girls figuring out who they are, what friendship is, what love is and what gives meaning to their lives. In this case, it's each other who brings meaning. The story is gentle, kind and thoughtful. So most people won't be interested, but I want more manga like this in my life.

I think the thing I liked the most about this volume is that it really highlights how far Saki and Kanon have progressed as characters since the beginning of this story. Most of this volume was more focused on Kanon as it seems she is finally slowly but surely coming to terms with how she feels about Saki. I also love how Kanons deafness is portrayed throughout the series. The Yuri part of this Yuri seems to finally be happening and I’m here for it.
Review of advance copy
The fact that I have to wait a YEAR for the next volume, after all that major character development and HOW THAT VOLUME ENDED. AHHHH. This is a crime.
