3,5 estrellas. La valoración es por los 5 primeros volúmenes de este manga para adolescentes. Me ha gustado, pero tampoco me ha vuelto loca. El rollo que se trae Reita (al que con el paso de los capítulos acabas cogiendo cariño) con las paredes me hace gracia, pero no tanto las grandes inseguridades de Makoto (que en eso me ha recordado a la prota de Orange) y algunas salidas machistas de los personajes, aunque entiendo que la mangaka refleja a través de ellas cómo es la sociedad en Japón. Ay, Yusuke, algo bueno para él ya.

RESEÑA COMPLETA: https://letraslibrosymas.blogspot.com...
El tomo dos continúa justo donde lo dejamos, con Reita y Makoto fingiendo ser novios, pero para Makoto todo se está complicando y volviendo muy confuso, mientras que Reita no se atreve a confesarse lo que da lugar a momentos de tensión y enredos muy divertidos. Además, Abiko toma más protagonismo y es un personaje que ya desde el principio me pareció muy interesante y creo que va a dar mucho juego en la historia.
Aunque lo he disfrutado y lo he devorado (me ha durado una hora y media) creo que no avanza mucho en la historia.

Inner judge: you are way too old to be reading stuff like this!

Sigue pareciéndome muy entretenido pero la historia ha avanzado poco para mi gusto. Aún así tengo ganas de seguir con ella.

Despite the fact that I rated The Walls Between Us, Vol. 1 2.5 stars I’m back for more!
At least in this vol we saw some clear character growth, but in Reita’s case that was 2 steps forward, 3 steps back. It was like every time he opened his mouth he said something immensely idiotic or damaging. And he kabe-don’ed so many times it practically became his signature move by the end.
Irritatingly enough, the protagonist also had what I like to call “idiot syndrome” where she’d say whatever she wanted without thinking of the consequences and then immediately regret it all. These two were like a match made in idiot’s heaven, yet they were still such hot messes that other characters had to coach them at every corner in order to stop their fraying relationship from shredding itself to pieces.
Were they morons? Most certainly. But at least they also managed to be amusing morons. And Reita may have been a lost cause but still I found myself rooting for him over the much wiser second male love interest.

I'm trying to give Makoto the benefit of the doubt, but her blatant denial and overthinking are really frustrating me. Reita finally admitted the truth, and Makoto practically had a meltdown on him. Then, in a cowardly and accidental move, she ended up apologizing to the wrong person! *sigh*
Reita is a bit of a mess, too, but he seems to be handling things slightly better than Makoto, although he still needs some work.
Then there's Yusuke, who is friends with both of them. He seems to be developing feelings for Makoto while also trying to help her see Reita's (his best friend's) perspective. It's not confusing at all. *sarcasm*
One technical issue with the manga is that it can be difficult to distinguish the other characters from one another. They are drawn so subtly that they all look too similar. This is especially true for Juri, another mutual friend and the designated voice of reason. It can be challenging to tell her apart from the crowd.
I'm tempted to give this title a three out of frustration, but I am clearly invested in the story, so it's only fair to bump up the rating—3.5 stars rounded to 4.

The art is really beautiful in this series, very detailed for a contemporary shojo story, and the character interactions are great, especially since main character Makoto actually has personality and spiritedness compared to other shojo heroines. I especially love how Reita, the male lead, is characterized as being a tad narcissistic yet pretty oblivious about exactly how and why he is popular with girls. But Reita’s friend Yusuke wins because he is That Nice Guy who is completely my type. 👌 I know there is going to be plenty of relationship drama ahead, but I’m all for it at this point.

Sigue pareciéndome muy plana la historia y muy típica. Lo único que se salva es el dibujo, como ya dije en el primer tomo.
La protagonista me provoca sentimientos encontrados. Por un lado me gusta su carácter porque tiene las cosas claras y no se deja engatusar fácilmente; pero, por otro lado, me saca de quicio que no tenga la fuerza necesaria para pararle los pies a su mejor amigo y le deje hacer lo que le dé la gana.
Los personajes que mejor me caen son los mejores amigos de cada uno. Son mucho más maduros que los protagonistas y dan muy buenos consejos. Y espero y deseo que tengan mayor protagonismo más adelante, es más, sería interesante ver una historia entre ellos o que ocurriera algo interesante que los pusiera en la mira.
Una historia que me está resultando entretenida pero muy común, sin nada que haya hecho todavía que me sorprenda o que quiera seguir leyendo para ver qué ocurre porque, por ahora, me huelo cómo va a acabar todo.

Sentimentos que continuam confusos, uma protagonista que claramente tem daddy issues e um par romântico que não conversaaa. Essa série exige um pouquinho de paciência! 😅
Apesar disso, estou gostando bastante das personagens e das cenas em geral, principalmente as cômicas, que atenuam um pouco a leve irritação pela falta de diálogo - apesar de que!!! eles são adolescentes e a gente é meio idiota quando é adolescente, então na verdade isso tudo é implicância minha e faz sentido pro momento deles, sabe.
O final ó 👌🏼 Claramente o Reita entendeu tudo errado mas eu adoro um personagem ciumentinho hahaha

Ughhhhhhh, Yusuke is so much better than Reitaaaaa. Second male lead syndrome at 100000000%.
Even if Reita wasn't just an idiot who can't admit his feelings, it was really shitty when Makoto was being bullied and his response is, "Must be hard dating someone as handsome as me! Hahaha!" and never did anything to stand up for her. I lost basically any desire to see him as the love interest.
Makoto has some legitimate hang-ups, even if she is kind of oblivious to her own feelings. Reita's been a jerk to her about her personality and looks since he started getting popular in middle school, so why WOULD she believe that he likes her?

Guys, I’m Too Old For This.
I think part of the issue for me personally is this is labeled as a romantic comedy... but it was very intent on the drama and insistence on miscommunication between the main characters. And that ending scene was not to my personal taste. I’m hoping the characters in question get called out and grow out of their ways, but I don’t think this series is for me. Which sucks because Makoto’s struggle with her parents’ divorce in volume 1 was so real and added lovely depth.
*mutters darkly*

Volume two and I'm still not sure how I feel about it. I will say I enjoyed the break in the middle of the story from Makoto and Reita's back and forth. I liked seeing and learning more about the other characters in the story. I'm starting to feel like the need for Makoto and Reita's relationship to become real is a bit forced. In volume one neither of them thought of each other in that way until a "seed" was planted by others. I like the characters and I want to see how the story plays out, but honestly, I'm in no hurry to continue.

I still really liked it but this one was more frustrating.
His best friend is gonna be his rival cause otherwise their friendship is really cute and nice. Makoto, is the most frustrating, denying her feelings, denying his feelings, and then getting mad at her dad. She really does need to work through her parents divorce. I think her dad deserves frustration and she should be honest that she hasn't forgiven him but she is just being kind of a brat. But so is Reita, but he has had more growth in this volume but is still a brat....
I am hooked.

yikes. did not enjoy this one, but it's entirely a me thing, so it wouldn't be fair to rate it any lower. reita & sakurai somehow are becoming even rockier & it's more sad than interesting. add in the weird way they're bringing in the second male lead & i... honestly don't even know if i want to continue this series.
the artwork is beautiful, reita is my favorite himbo, but this is the definition of "miscommunication trope."

Moving along
- awkward phase between ML and FL. Denial is such a difficult thing to deal with.
- seeing more of the ML's friend. Curious to know about his past. Totally seeing a love triangle but in a weird way I want the FL with him?!
- story is truly giving me Lovely Complex vibes.
- overall great read.

Overall, another great volume in the series! It was frustrating because Makoto needs to sit down and think about what’s going on and how she actually feels instead of just being scared of change all the time. A nice part of this book was getting to learn more about Yuske, he’s so kind and handsome!! Reita has competition 😉

4.5 ⭐️
The 2 MCs are still trying to figure out their feelings for one another, but add in Reita’s BFF and it’s throwing everyone for a loop! Makoto doesn’t want to admit her feelings too early, but she can’t help it when Reita shows her glimpses of boyfriend material vs. always being the boy-next-door. Here’s to seeing what evolves in volume 3!

Mediocre anime
This story is pretty average and the characters aren’t interesting enough for me to get into it more. There first one was a little more promising but there was less excitement in this book. Will probably end series here for me.

un shojo con clichés con vida propia. Son tan descarados los clichés que hacen hasta gracia. Entretenido y tierno en algunos momentos. Sin más.

Cute, interesting & relatable
I recommended this to anyone really, I'm currently 33 & enjoyed vol 2 of The Walls Between Us & found I related to it from past experiences. I am looking forward to the next volume.

Sympa, un peu meilleur que le tome 1 je pense, mais ça reste très classique... pas exceptionnel, quoi, tout en restant sympa.

Will they or won’t they? They is the ongoing theme here. Just when you think it’s happening, you should think again!
