Let’s get this out of the way - the first story in this anthology, Flowers in a Storm, is the single best short manga I have ever read. It has a complete emotional arc that culminates with three spoken words that just wrecked me.
It is the first, but not last, instance of one of these short stories being so good that I wish it was a full series (one of the ones toward the end about a mean-looking girl and her attractive senpai should be serialized yesterday). Nio Nakatani of Bloom Into You fame has a charming and understated entry as well.
I’ve been very hit-or-miss with yuri anthologies and I definitely did not care much for the first Eclair anthology published in the west. The quality of these stories is much, much higher. There are still a couple duds (that magical girl story is only saved by how ludicrous it gets at the end, total waste of a premise), but it’s the exception not the rule.
I’d have given the anthology itself four stars, but Flowers in a Storm got to me in just the right way that it earned that last star all by itself. I’d seriously own this book just for that story alone (your mileage may vary and indeed probably does).

喜歡〈杜鵑花岔口〉，有幾篇短篇都算有趣，但還不到超絕驚豔。可能我就喜歡看小火慢燉的百合？

放了半年才看完
好吧...短篇果然還是不好發揮
在我大終將面前就算是終將作者自己的短篇也不堪一擊
接著看第三集
