Today’s post is on Wake Up, Sleeping Beauty, Vol. 4 by Megumi Morino. It is 192 pages long and is published by Kodansha Comics. The cover has Shizu, Tetsu, and Chihiro on it. As it is the fourth in the series you need to have read the first three volumes to understand the story. The intended reader is someone who likes supernatural manga and manga with intense plots. There is no foul language no sex, and no violence in this manga. The story is told from third person close of the main character, Tetsu. There Be Spoilers Ahead.
From the back of the book- THE MOVING FORWARD
Shizu's grand scheme to get Tetsu to play soccer one last time was a big success, and has become a catalyst for change for everyone involved. One of the biggest changes comes from Chihiro, who works up the courage to tell Tetsu his biggest secret. Will this revelation tear the friends apart?

Review- Tetsu makes some peace with his past and the choices that he made. Tetsu and Chihiro have a heart-to-heart about their friendship and come back together. Shizu is getting more and more free and less afraid of the world around her but her father comes back in this volume and he wants to send her away. Now her mother has to make some choices. The plot is getting more and more intense as Shizu tries to take control of her future and not be in the power of those who don’t love her and will not care for her. Tetsu of course is trying to help her and he may get himself into some trouble to free Shizu. I am pulling for them both in this dangerous place they have found themselves. Only two more volumes to finish this series and I am anxious for these characters.

I give this volume a Four out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money.

Ay :,)
Estos mangas no hacen más que mejorar; y este que, en concreto, está mucho más dedicado a Shizu, me ha dejado el corazoncito tierno. Me ha encantado cómo va abriéndose al mundo, y cómo la ayudan los que la rodean y la quieren. Además, ahora que han entrado en juego sus padres, resulta impactante descubrir tanto sobre cómo ha tenido que vivir hasta ahora.
¿Y ESE DESENLACE? AY MADRE.
En fin, me está encantando <3

Voici déjà mon avis sur le quatrième tome de cette excellente série ! Je suis triste de savoir qu'il n'en reste plus que deux... Ce manga est vraiment d'une grande qualité !

Une des choses qui m'ont le plus agréablement surprise dans ce tome est le fait qu'il soit plus centré sur Shizu et son évolution depuis sa rencontre avec Tetsu que les précédents. On en apprend aussi plus sur Chihiro, qui cache une secret de taille, mais dont l'amitié avec Tetsu ne fait que se renforcer !

La relation entre Shizu et Tetsu évolue encore ici et Tetsu est devenu curieux concernant le passé les fantômes qui hantent Shizu depuis qu'il commence à appréhender sa peur.

On en découvre aussi plus sur la famille de Shizu, notamment avec la première apparition de son père : un homme exécrable qui m'aura bien mise en colère ! Mais je n'ai pas pu m'empêcher de ressentir beaucoup de peine pour sa mère, une femme déboussolée qui aime sa fille tout en en ayant peur et qui vit sous le joug de son mari.

Du côté de Tetsu, la situation concernant sa mère semble être dévoilée petit à petit au fil des tomes. J'ai très envie de savoir le fin mot de l'histoire la concernant.

Ce tome marque un tournant dans le manga et promet une suite qui m'a l'air d'être des plus intéressantes !

I pretty much read dive into this series blindly, the synopsis is interesting but I didn’t expect it to be a lil on heavier side, heartwarming and heart-touching with a lil occult aspect. A lil content warning there’s 1-2 scene of physical abuse and some emotional abuse (neglect) in the series. I like how the relatable the ml is, he’s scared of occult stuff and reacted like how most people would but he try his best to handle it better and understand how others feels. He’s so caring, reliable, and emotionally strong, he’s expressive and empathetic but he’s most definitely not a pushover. I kinda sad for the fl because of her condition she’s being neglected by her own parents, think of her like Rapunzel, sure they provided her with basic necessity but none emotionally. I’m just glad she has kind souls that surrounded and try to protect, help, and encourage her to learn how to be herself. I’m glad to see the growth of not only the ml & fl but also the supporting characters. I thoroughly enjoy this series, it warms my heart.
Just in case, prepare some tissue when you read this book, especially on the later volume.

this is reminding me of Every Day by David Levithan except that in this story, there are four spirits which inhabit only one vessel. it's strange for a romance novel and i think can see why not a lot of people would like this series. it's tinged with just the right amount of horror/supernatural but i'm loving everything about this. in comparison with Every Day, from what i remember, the characters in here have far more depth and the guy mc is extremely likeable and agreeable. i don't think i've read a book so far this year in which a guy protagonist really moved me. Tetsu's deeply held concern and care for his family and his pragmatic way of showing up for them was something i can certainly relate to as a capricorn. his ability to express his feelings and be vulnerable was really admirable.

other than the romance aspect, how the author handled the topic of family issues, death and the regrets and grief that comes with it in a delicate way really stood out for me. it was a completely satisfying read despite the brief sadness i felt for what the characters went through.

Tras el partido de fútbol, Tetsu se siente culpable por haber aceptado dinero de la madre de Shizu a cambio de estar con su hija. Por eso deja de ir a trabajar un tiempo, pero un día en el centro comercial se encuentra a Shizu con su amigo y terminan todos de compras.
Tetsu invita a Shizu al festival, pidiéndole permiso a la madre para que ella pueda salir, pero lo que no se esperan es que en la vuelta a casa se encuentren con el padre de esta y se complique todo.
.
Este manga me está pareciendo muy tierno al igual que duro, como dos chicxs adolescentes tienen una vida tan complicada, uno tiene en sus espaldas la responsabilidad de ser un pilar para la familia desde peque y la otra es una incomprendida por su familia que ha hecho que ni ella misma se conozca...
Una historia que sin duda estoy disfrutando mucho de la mano de estos dos protas tan bonitos

Wake Up, Sleeping Beauty Volume 4 is probably my favorite in the series so far. I love that Shizu is getting out into the world more. I also loved all the interactions in this volume, Tetsu, his family, Chihiro and Shizu. Certain truth's come out in this volume, which I was all for. Though I would like to state that I hate Shizu's father. I don't care that he was only in the volume for a matter of pages, I hate him. This volume does end with a cliffhanger, and I look forward to seeing what happens next!

Adorei tudo que aconteceu nesse volume, a volta da amizade do Chihiro com o Tetsu e como tudo ente eles era falta de cominucação. Essa reaproximação veio pro melhor, porque o Tetsu precisou muito de ombro amigo pra conseguir vencer o desfio desse próximo arco. Fiquei curiosa sobre o passado do avô da Shizu e como as famílias dos protagonistas estavam de ligadas de um modo muito singelo, mas bem significativo. Bora ver oq acontece.

Things you do for love, dear, it’s just so touching. :’)

Shizu is gradually become more human, that’s what I like, and despite of her father being the devil here to separate Shizu from Tetsu and the world. I’m glad Shizu has the will to live now, to know of people who love her.

Btw I really love the cover, that’s grandpa Shinobu and Tetsu and Chii >< 💕💕💕

Po przeczytaniu pierwszego tomu myślałem, że ta seria będzie się opierać głównie na zwrotach akcji, mrocznych sekretach, duchach itp, a nie na emocjach. I szczerze to chyba nawet lepiej, że się tak nie stało, bo pomimo tego jest bardzo wciągająca, a niektóre sceny potrafią doprowadzić wiele osób do łez✴️

Ya casi estamos al final del manga, si la verdad que ha aparecido un personaje que me da mucho asco y le odio mucho, por otro lado me encantan Tetsu y Shizu, creo que están creciendo mucho y espero que todo salga bien en los dos últimos mangas de la serie porque todo se a puesto patas arriba

This volume got me in the feels...

I can really feel the love Tetsu has for Shizu. She deserves to be loved.

Also, I find Chihiro so adorable??!! I like that he’s becoming a bigger part of the story.

I have a deep dislike for Shizu’s father but a great respect for Tetsu and Chihiro. I also really adore Tetsu and Chihiro’s friendship; especially how Chihiro reacts when Tetsu officially calls him a friend.

This is just so much my jam, and I love how the stories parallel -- it is not just about him 'saving' her, it is also about her 'saving' him, or rather both of them awakening each other.

I love the art, but there’s just something...missing from this series for me. I don’t know, it’s weird that I don’t love Tetsu and Shizu together...
