I think this volume is my favourite so far. Things are finally moving and Minato and Shizuma are growing as a pair. And the things with the Director are getting interesting. I'm dying to know what's going on with them.

Quando esce un nuovo volume di Therapy Game vado in escandescenza. Quanto mi piace questa serie!
L'evoluzione del rapporto tra Minato e Shizuma è stata narrata in modo impeccabile, ma la famiglia di Shizuma rimane un punto spinoso: le parole del ragazzo hanno fuorviato totalmente la madre, speriamo bene.
Interessante anche l'evoluzione del rapporto tra Tatsumi e la Direttrice della clinica veterinaria... Comunque, a parte Minato qua tutti dormono!

Aquest volum ha pausat l'evolució de la parella protagonista amb tota la moguda del Minato de voler estar a l'alçada de les expectatives de la mare del Shizuma... Es fa farragós, però entenc que narrativament és coherent per tot el passat traumàtic del Minato. Tot i així se m'ha fet un pèl menys interessant i la relació de la directora i l'altre veterinari encara és massa incipient perquè compensi... Això sí, encuriosida amb el nou personatge que treu el cap durant les vacances de la madame. Veurem on ens porta tot plegat. Per últim, a l'epíleg la mangaka explica que ja som a l'equador de la història, cosa que em deixa al·lucinada. Això vol dir que tindrem 6 volums més d'aquesta sèrie??? Encantadíssima, la veritat ♥️♥️♥️

I love this series so much. This volume had a really serious tone but the ending reminded us all how funny Minato is! He is such a little shit sometimes. I just can't get enough. We start our series with a new photo project at Shizuma's office which is a big hit. This leads us into the more serious portion that deals with accepting your partner, when to support them, and when to let them better themselves on their own. We get an emerging third couple that I am cheering for, a new character is introduced but we don't see much of them, and we get bits with Shizuma's mom. S The art is top notch as always and if you don't know, you can get electronic versions of SuBlime series on their website and you get a ePub and PDF that you can use in any reader. I LOVE THAT.

6/6 stars

Band 6 der „Therapy Game: Re“ Reihe ist vermutlich der erste Teil der Haupt- und Spin-Off-Reihe, in der nur eine einzige Spice-Szene vorkommt. Ungewöhnlich, aber nicht weniger gut! Generell kann die Mangaka vermutlich kein Buch aus dem Boden stampfen, das mir nicht gefallen würde. Shizuma & Minato sind einfach mein „Roman Empire“ in Sachen Manga - das ultimative „Grumpy x Sunshine“ Couple. Auf den nächsten Band freue ich mich ganz besonders, denn in diesem Teil wurde ein neuer Charakter „vorgestellt“, der in Band 7 durchaus für Ärger sorgen könnte. Ich bin gespannt! Es geht doch nichts über ein bisschen Trouble im Liebes-Paradies - sofern am Ende die große Versöhnung wartet, natürlich. Band 7, komm schnell!

First, thank you, Edelweiss+ and Sublime, for the chance to ARC read this :)

We are back with our favorite couple, and as usual I enjoyed every minute of it! Minato is working hard to maintain his goal for Shizuma, but of course these 2 have some things to work out.

Also, the director and Tatsumi? This will be fun seeing where that goes!

4.5⭐

En este tomo vuelven a estar tan monos como siempre🥺y es verdad que empatizo un poco más con "la directora" pero me gustaría que la autora no se fuese muchos tomos más por las ramas y la verdad no me apetece nada conocer al nuevo personaje...
QUIERO QUE SE VAYAN A VIVIR JUNTOS Y SE CASEN

Absolutely loved those volume!
While we see Minato working toward being someone Shizuma's family will approve of, he is wanting to change so he can support Shizuma like he does for him- especially when a deadline is looming.

This volume also has a big focus on the Director Akira and Tatsumi, which I will say felt seamless with how their story is incorporated. I'm curious if they will get their own spinoff or will they continue to get moments within Minato and Shizuma's story. I love that Tatsumi sees the "real" Akira and exactly who Akira needs in his life. I'm still getting ick vibes from Akira's father. Why doesn't any one step in?

I want to also mention as this series continues, Minato grows on me even more. It's not like I didn't like him in previous volumes, it's more I am loving his character development because from the first volume of Therapy Game to this one he has grown so much.

As usual the pacing feels appropriate and the art is beautiful as always.

Omg! Me emociona pero a la vez me da un poco de miedo el nuevo personaje! Y ya quiero ver que pasa con la relación de Tatsumi y "la directora". Que por cierto, el diseño de la portada de este número me ha encantado 💕

[Irene · Rating 4 out of 5]

Mi piace molto come l'autrice esplora le diverse personalità dei protagonisti. Minato è scontroso, non vuole farsi vedere in momenti di debolezza o avere persone intorno mentre lavora, e questo potrebbe essere un ostacolo per la convivenza con Shizuma. Trovo che i suoi dubbi siano molto umani e Shizuma è sempre dolcissimo nell'affrontarli e nel rassicurarlo. Rimane una delle mie serie preferite!
