"Remember what you said to me once? ... 'Please wear whatever you want.' Everyone's allowed to dress as they like."

I love manga and I love sweets.
If I were to equate the two, I would say that most manga that I read is like a yummy packaged sweet, like Oreos. Like, they're really yummy and they hit the spot, and they're easily accessible and classic and fun. But this series in particular... it reminds me of going to a fancy local cake shop and getting served a beautifully plated strawberry shortcake with coffee in a porcelain cup. It's delicious in its own way and also gets several points for presentation, as well as just being a cut above in general. Both sweets are delicious in their own time and place, but man... this cake really sticks with you, and it can't really compare to Oreos at all...!

Maybe-slightly-confusing-analogy aside, I adore this series more and more with every volume. I just really, really adore Kanade especially (if you couldn't tell since he has been my icon ever since I started taking doing reviews seriously here). He has such a sweet and mellow personality. I really appreciate that moment of fear when he wondered if Hanku would still want to hang out with him, knowing that he loves Lolita clothes. Even though this series is textually about alternative fashion, I personally see queerness in the subtext of these conversations. Everyone should get to wear what they want -- i.e., everyone should get to be who they want, and love what they want. This message screams from this series to me and I find it to be such a refreshing reminder of that principle.

Also, normally it can bother me a bit when manga uses its page space scarcely, with few panels and fewer dialogue bubbles, but I contemplated it while reading this volume, and actually found it quite clever for this series in particular. This is a series about appearances, so the pages mostly focus strongly on the characters' appearances. Their minute expressions, and especially the clothes that they're wearing. I've described it as being cinematic in my past reviews and I still very much stand by it -- the beats of pacing feel much more akin to watching a movie than reading a book, in my opinion, and I just think it works really well for what Kanazawa-sensei is imparting through these characters. Not to mention, the art is absolutely breathtaking. Such a feast for the eyes!!

In regard to the Kanade/Aki relationship: I honestly don't mind if they become romantic or if they stay platonic. As they are, I think their friendship is way too adorable. I just love them in whatever type of relationship they choose, and I want to see them get closer. Both of them deserve support and friendship both "on" and "off", at work and in life.

Yay more relationship development! These two are so cute.

As usual, I wish these volumes were longer. These could fill a full 160 or so, but at 132 it just wraps up as it gets going. I feel like scant is about the right word for it.

Especially when this does the decency of getting back to the core relationship between Amata and Hanku. The last volume ended with identities being revealed; the fallout encompasses a large part of this volume.

Plus the sweetest damn cat story I have read in ages. Little Mitsu’s story is just very tender and as adorable as the feline itself. Mitsu had an outsized role last time, but that turned out to be a warmup for their integration into things here.

The art is always very strong, but I loved the way it depicted Mitsu’s journey. It might not be the most revelatory illustration of time, but I still found it very affecting. I’m also a big sucker for cats (this comes just days after I lost my own cat, so that probably plays into my emotions here too).

Amata and Hanku’s story is even better, as they cautiously let their other selves come to the surface and find, well, acceptance. Amata, in particular, has struggled with his joy at dressing in Lolita clothes and having Hanku not even bat an eyelash is very satisfying.

It’s nice to see somebody scared of expressing themselves muster up the courage and not get shut down for it. Amata is a ball of nerves and seeing Hanku reassure him that it’s okay to just be yourself is great.

That’s basically the volume, but it looks great and has a strong message. It’s gotten a lot more interesting narratively by not dragging out this reveal and I’m glad that neither of them was portrayed as being too oblivious about it.

Sometimes I find this series very strong, sometimes it just does okay. I think it puts most all of its feet right this time, although the cliffhanger we get here doesn’t have me especially excited for the next volume.

4 stars - great message, adorable cat, too short. Basically consistent, but not consistently consistent. Which makes sense in my head, sorry.

4 stars. I want more and while I'm enjoying the faster pace, I wouldn't mind a bit more development and details being shown. They are so cute!

Edit 2026: Official translation 4.5 stars. I missed this. I love it.

aww pero que lindo que encontró a alguien que lo comprendaaa.
fueron a un evento juntos, con sus estilos de preferencia, uno de la mascotita que le gusta. un tapir negro con ropa linda, mumu y que es chico.
y le agarro cariño porque se sentia identificado.
tokoyo es otra tapir, amiga de mumu que le apoya. asi como ellos en personaaaa
ademas le regala a kanade (él), el anillo de mumu como regalo de cumplee
y usan los stickers de los tapires.

aventura en adoptar al gatito de la calle. pero el gatito dijo "a, casa? perfecto, yo me meto" y no hubo problema con el transportín.

The artwork is good The plot is kind of OK the characters all right I mean there’s nothing that I found really stand out about this series so far it’s an interesting concept about people who are clearly from two different mindsets we’re now living together this might be interesting going forward though I’m not really sure how much Of a hurry I am going to keep reading it

ES TAN DULCE.
Las relaciones de amistad son preciosas. A cada personaje que aparece es más carismático que le anterior. Y el desarrollo de la historia, de les protas es de encontrar un lugar seguro. Así que es de agradecer.

This series is so cute and sweet and the art is gorgeous, but it's sooo slooow. Amata and Hanku bond over a stray cat, and a new person shows up at Hanku's door, throwing things off balance. That's the level of excitement here, but I still love it.

The cuteness factor was dialed up in this volume! And the secret is out, so seeing Aki and Kanade (Hanku and Amata) start to be their true selves with each other was so nice. I also had to rate this volume 5 stars, as the bonus story in the back almost made me cry.
