What an emotional roller coaster this volume was!

I'm not even sure if I can say all I want to because I still have butterflies in my stomach and just a squealing mess. LOL!

The spoiler free version: I never thought I would be happy with some of the things in this volume based off my feelings in the beginning.

There was so much packed into this that I don't even think I realized how much I would come to truly admire Nino's journey. This was her moment to shine and she shines with everything she has. It brought tears to my eyes because Nino has fought so hard and experienced ALL the emotions that I am glad she was able to truly be happy. <3

And HARUYOSHIIIIIIII!! Yes yes yes!! I love his character to pieces and was so happy for him in this volume! He truly is so cool!

My heart still aches for Yuzu and I'm curious to see if there will be more explored with the "voice." (Keeping that vague purposely.)

Overall, extraordinary volume and SO bummed the tour arc has ended! Hoping for good things in the next one (I am SO proud of you Kuro!!) and that things would continue to go in the up and up!

This one winds down the tour arc and winds up the relationship drama. I do like that we get to see Miou and Haruyoshi on a date, it's pretty cute. I'm not a huge fan of Momo winding up with Nino, he seams to be kinda overly controlling in all honesty. Yuzu is only a bit better but we get more depth to him, and see him trying to be better at least.
Overall, this one was not as good as the previous volumes. I liked seeing Nino coming into her own as a singer, and meshing with the rest of In No Hurry, and we get a little of that here but it then takes a step backwards when the boys make their moves.

Stuff is happening!!! 👀 I want to believe the plot is moving in the direction I'm hoping for, but I really don't know.

I'm enjoying this series, but I don't know if I'd recommend it to younger teens. There's some overly possessive behavior that seems to be portrayed as romantic and exciting. It's getting on my nerves. 😑

AAAAAAHHHHH I HATE IT HERE!!!! AAAAAAHHHHH

Rant alert:

Okay, before I begin, I knew that some time Momo and Nino were bound to happen, and I am absolutely prepared for that to happen. HOWEVER, throughout the last volumes we've been seeing Yuzu and Alice growing closer and Alice STARTING to sing for herself and for the audience hoping it will reach Momo.... but, why did this volume destroy all that good character/story building?! They instantly made Alice and Momo a couple and left Yuzu alone just like that? AND does Fukuyama hate Yuzu THAT much? I mean give the kid a break. Honestly, by the end of this series/as the story progresses, I hope, I HOPE with ALL my heart that Yuzu will find a way to be happy. I also hope that Alice will really start singing FOR HERSELF, and for the audience instead of having her entire life centered around Momo. Honestly, the only reason why I'm giving this a star is because I liked the art on the concert/tour arcs. Otherwise, I'm sorry but this volume was bad.

I think I hate Nino 😭
I now understand why people ship NinoxMomo (I see it now!) But I'm still want Yuzu to be end game. He deserves it so much. He just keeps getting hurt over and over again and I know Momo has his share of hurt but Yuzuuuu!
Well, at least one of my ships worked out 😭
Stupid Alice.
I don't know what I'm going to do when this series ends 😭

I love volumes like this so much! The ones where you get little parts of everyone's story are great. They all do a lot of talking about their feelings in this volume and I'm so happy that they are finally doing that.

I thought that Momo was picking a fight with Yuzu while they were on stage. But it turns out that he gave him a bit of motivation to do a better job at playing the guitar. Nino even thanked him. And the funny thing was he didn’t even know why he did it.

Momo kissing Nino was surprising because I thought that he will never do anything to let her know that he loves her, but I guess, he can’t take it anymore. But, Nino’s innocence couldn’t even figure out why he did it.

Now, of course, Yuzu will self-destruct when he realized that he didn’t have a chance with Nino because she loves and will always love Momo. This sucks! Poor Yuzu😭

The Nino-Momo flashbacks were so cute😍

Oh, wow, Nino thinks that her voice belongs to Yuzu🥺 Character development alert🔥

All right, Momo’s dad messed up and had a lot of debt, but why did his mother force him to pay stuff instead of her paying it off since her husband did it all? Why did their child be responsible for their failures? Oh god, this made my blood boil.

I love how Momo is so sweet toward Nino💕

Why is Momo being so possessive about Nino? I mean, yeah, he may be jealous of Yuzu, but they have no relationship besides friends.

Oh damn, Yuzu’s gonna disappear now? Well, I hope it works.

Overall, a great volume, thank you💖

This volume was explosive - really everything came to a head. My heart aches so badly for Yuzu and I felt bad for Kuro too. So happy for Haruyoshi and Miou even though I don't love either of them as characters in the story. And I feel hopeful for Nino and Momo. If I'm being 100% honest I prefer Yuzu to Momo, but in terms of the story I understand why it has been and will always be Momo. This volume so many things came together, but there are also some things that are still left unfinished. This volume almost felt like the series should be wrapping up, everything has started to feel like it's falling where it's meant to be. I am curious how the rest of the series is going to play out because there are 6 or 7 more volumes, and that seems like an awful lot of chapters left when it feels like it should be coming to a close. I can only imagine the drama these kiddos and their love polygons are going to get into.

Momo kisses Nino backstage after she says Yuzu's name again, as he has been screwing up during the last show in the tour, which of course completely throws her off her game. But she's happy her voice has finally reached him. Ayumi talks about falling in love with Ui first, when he and his brother first met her. Momo meets Nino at her house after the show, but gets mad when he hears her singing Yuzu's songs. Momo explains what he's been doing for the past 6 yrs, tells her he loves her and they make out on the beach and walk back home holding hands (clearly now going out, though the words are not spoken out loud). Miou and Haru go on their first date and Miou is weirded out the entire time. Honestly Momo just came out as a petulant child in this volume (more so than before) and I'm already annoyed at their "relationship". Recommended for ages 14+, 4 stars.

First of all the cover is amazing.
In general the plot, pace, and characters continue to be great and I did like where this volume led. I was a little disappointed that the beginning of this volume did not have a charcater/plot summary as it has previously and it is something I find incredibly useful in manga when there is a break between volumes. I actually went back and read volume 10 again because of this.
That all being the case, I enjoyed this volume and am now moving on to the next volume.

I have nothing to say about this volume but I enjoy so much.
but this love triangle!!!
Nino- who in love with Momo
Momo- wanting distance himself from Nino while competing with Yuzu for the girl they love( which I still don't understand)
Yuzu( who is by the way my favorite)- in love with Nino and make great lyrics for the band
Is anyone does not like...…wait scratch that HATE Momo and Yuzus' mom so much. But also the other two couple( I don't mind cause they are dramatic and cute)

This series continues on so strong that I'm amazed. We keep discovering new layers to the characters with so much to expore.

Haruyohsi and Miou!

So much good stuff here and things I never thought I would want to see happen, are. Where this story will go next now that the tour is over is exciting to see. Can't wait to read more!

I'm happy that the love triangle is continuing to improve. Momo is making moves& Yuzu is still out in the open. But I do think Nino's heart does also lie with Yuzu's, mainly because of music, and I'm happy about the fact that Miou finally realised her feelings for Haryoushi, so they can finally like one another, without it feeling unrequited.

So cute! If the series ended here, I honestly think it would’ve been a good ending. But... I’m a bit curious to see what kind of drama unfolds after Nino and Momo finally got some happiness ^^; I’m hoping nothing too bad!

Anonymous Noise, Vol 11

In this volume, the gang is recovering from the big concert.

Nino figures out that she's torn between her feelings for Momo & Yuzu. Will she figure out things before someone gets hurt?

"That day was so cold that our breath melted white into the sky."

The tour wraps up and the plot thickens! I like Alice, but I think my heart breaks for Yuzu the most. He might be my favorite.

Rock on to volume 12...

If you're a hopeless romantic and love alternative music, this manga is for you.
It is a manga for me, though I more hopeful. :)
