i want what they have so badly it hurts

[Sean O'Hara · Rating 4 out of 5]

Behold! The plot lurches forward again. After 19 volumes Pin finally gets character development! Kazehaya's homelife gets fleshed out, even if some elements are just dropped into place and mentioned a dozen times even though nobody ever brought them up before.

Could the series be heading towards a conclusion? Will Kurumi ever reappear? Will Joe get a face?

Find out in Volume 20.

I realize this is a romantic story, but I really enjoy when the romance is not quite the focus and we get glimpses into everyone's lives in a nonromantic way. This was one of those volumes and very much enjoyed it!

Pin is definitely not who I thought he would be! He's such a great teacher and absolutely love how he inspires and annoys his students. LOL!

I think for a younger person that this story really conveys the importance of choosing a career path of your own choosing, and not just based on what you THINK you want to do and/or know. Pin did a really great job making his students think deeper and it made me (briefly) wish I had had a teacher to encourage me like that. Sometimes the "safest" path is not the BEST path.

Now I should mention that there IS romance, and as always, I really enjoyed this one! It was very sweet and special. So happy for them both, though that ending! :o That was a little bit…unexpected.

Pin... who would have thought he would became such a nice sensei? He has Sawako in such high esteem, it is touching.

I got a little bit emotional with this volume. It happened too with the last volumes of Lovely Complex, when all friends have to think about their future and about getting separate. Maybe because there were some memories showing

Ahhh it is so easy to read this manga... When it seemed I read only a couple of pages I realize I come to the end

[Honeypie · Rating 4 out of 5]

Sawako and Pin are my top two favorite characters in this series. Given that, when they're trying their best to be serious, they still end up as the ultimate comic relief duo.

El cumpleaños de Sawako!!!!
Es momento de elegir su futuro, hora de entrevistas con Pin.

Yo tomaba por tonto a Pin.... Pero solo por este tomo lo respeto

Un final de golpe.

IM SO SHOCKED THE LAST PAGE who knew kazehaya’s dad was like that it’s so sweet seeing ryu and chizu interact and i love this series so much

[rae · Rating 4 out of 5]

what if... sawako as a teacher oh my

can kazehaya's dad chill god

[Lupita Rodriguez · Rating 5 out of 5]

Un tomo increíble que me recordó lo difícil que es enfrentarse a la decisión de qué hacer después de la preparatoria: el estrés, las opciones y el futuro ....
Pero que también me hizo rememorar lo que se sentía el tener el cambio de tu vida en tus manos, los sentimientos de incertidumbre y al mismo tiempo de esperanza.... además me sentí muy identificada con Pin (aunque no era mi personaje favorito, se ganó un lugar en mi corazón 💓) ....los motivos que lo llevaron a ser profesor 👨‍🏫 concuerdan en parte con mi manera de pensar y eso me hizo sentir muy feliz 😁 y reafirmé lo mucho que amo ser maestra 👩‍🏫.
El tema del manga se pone serio ...y me encanta 🥰 ....porque te muestra verdaderamente lo que implica tener 17 años , estar en la preparatoria y madurar.

[Mary · Rating 5 out of 5]

Watching them try to figure out what they want to do after high school is making me a little emotional. I love Pin, the talk he had with Sawako was 10/10. He’s such a silly character but he really is a good teacher.

What was that ending though???? I knew Kazehaya’s dad was harsh, but did he really hit him?

[Julie · Rating 4 out of 5]

Pin is actually a really good teacher and I'm starting to genuinely like his character. I mean he's still really annoying and it's kind of weird how involved he is, but he sets boundaries and cares about them and it's sweet.

[Tania · Rating 4 out of 5]

Buenísimo tomo.
Se enfoca en qué quieren hacer los protas después de la preparatoria y ese es uno de los temas que más me gusta ver porque le da mucha profundidad a los personajes: se ven sus intereses y, sobre todo, sus preocupaciones.

[d★ · Rating 3 out of 5]

se vienen decisiones difíciles para los protagonistas (carreras universitarias) y pues me alegro que esta vez no hayan habido malos entendidos entre sawako y kazehaya y todo se haya resulto rápido ૮꒰ྀི∩´ ᵕ `∩꒱ྀིა ahora... sawako vio a su suegro??? no se por qué el papá de kazehaya me da miedo lol

I’m happy Sawako is starting to think about her future, Pin really is a good teacher… BUT WTF IS WRONG WITH KAZEHAYAS FATHER?! DID I SEE THAT ENDING RIGHT??

[Read more at my blog, Geeky Reading!]

This series is just perfect. I’m practically just repeating myself with how much I love this series at this point. Because I do.

It’s New Years Eve and Sawako’s birthday now, and all three of the couples are still settling into their relationships. And they’re all super adorable. Sawako and Kazehaya are my favorite, and they’re super cute and sweet, and they hold hands. Chizu and Ryu are slowly getting back to normal, with Chizu prone to freak out over everything. Ayane and Kento are probably my least favorite, although I still really like Ayane. Something about them together just isn’t quite working for me, or at least isn’t making me overly excited. Kento is being really sweet with her, though.

We saw quite a bit of Pin in this one, and he was actually really helpful to Sawako, and pushed her in a good way. We also got to find out some of his backstory, and why he decided to become a teacher. That was surprising, and really nice. His and Ayane’s attraction had dwindled the last few volumes, but it was kind of there again in this one. Their interactions are generally just entertaining, but they’ve also been helping Ayane to grow and see things, which is good. Even as just friends, I like seeing them together.

Then school starts up again, and the group are all pushed to make life decisions after school. Sawako is surprisingly the only one who hasn’t really thought about it, and I’m looking forward to her making a decision later. The others' decisions made sense, although it seems like most of them are still getting used to what they’ve decided. Which leads us to the end of the volume, which was a very surprising cliffhanger. And it makes me really excited to see what happens in the next volume.

This is just one of my absolute favorite series. It’s sweet and girly and just blissful. I love it.

[Shanu · Rating 2 out of 5]

I have less and less tolerance for Sawako. She started out cute, now she is plain boring.

"Every one is moving forward" she says in her soft voice, her eyes wide and sparkly, blushing at her own thoughts.

Well, that's the thing about graduating sweety -if you hadn't already figured this out, it takes you forward...

I thought she was painfully shy and introverted but now i realize that she's slow. It's okay to take time figuring out complex feelings or inner conflicts but too much is too much. She just admitted to herself that she was in love in this volume. 19 volumes to come to that conclusion. What is the author doing?!

It seems like every book is about building up her thoughts so she can draw a conclusion on her life. It's all about patience for the reader and i'm not up for it.

We're heading for the 20th volume. How is that even possible? 20 volumes of awkward talks and blushing. I can't.

(I realize that Goodreads isn't probably the best place to vent about a manga - or a book in general, but i'll still post this here and see later if i'll move it to some other place.)

[✿ K.B ✿ · Rating 4 out of 5]

Ah! Career planning. -_-
No wonder Pin is on the cover. Good to see, that this volume sheds some light on the character Pin, and others are interviewed for their future. All the couples in this series are slowly moving forward. Now that they have one year of high school left, their romance is building up slowly... which is a bit boring and it makes me more curious for what happens next chapter or the next volume.
Parents and Child Meeting.. *shivers* Shouta's fierce father.. *shivers*
This series is a bit slow but at some point everything happens so fast that in a blink of an eye it is all over and something new stirs up. Let's see what happens next!

[Mac n Chow · Rating 4 out of 5]

Things get more serious. It's about how the characters plan to move on after high school. Some are undecided, some have chosen, others have had it planned by family. Apart from falling in love,discovering oneself and building friendships, the manga finally tackles an important question all teenagers are faced with: 'What do you want to do in the future?'

[VampAmber · Rating 5 out of 5]

Holy crap, what a cliffhanger! I can't wait to read the next volume, but I can't yet! *weeps* The big focus of this volume was on their future. That stuff's scary when you're young. Who am I kidding? That stuff's scary now, too. This is such a great series.

[Sarah · Rating 4 out of 5]

What a surprising ending!

[Manga_inamorata · Rating 3 out of 5]

WAY TO LONG!

SERIOUSLY It takes way to long for the romance to start between them. It's so annoying.

[Katt Hansen · Rating 5 out of 5]

Don't tell me Pin knows what he's talking about? Career surveys and everyone makes some decisions regarding their futures. Interesting that this is done before the last year of high school.

When is the angst going to end??

[Luana · Rating 4 out of 5]

Tema principale di questo diciannovesimo volume è il futuro. La nostra banda di squinternati si sta avviando verso l'inizio dell'ultimo anno di scuole superiori. Ed è quindi giunto il tempo di pensare ai propri piani per il futuro. Incredibilmente, sarà ancora quel povero genio incompreso di Pin a regalare le perle di saggezza migliori - è un esagitato, non sai mai se sta per sparare una cretinata o un pensiero intelligente, però in questi volumi si capisce perché ha scelto la strada dell'insegnamento (a discapito della carriera sportiva). Ha sempre un occhio attento verso i suoi ragazzi, adora vederli crescere e cambiare, e vuole aiutarli a comprendere a fondo il loro potenziale. Shota sembra destinato ad ereditare il negozio di famiglia, Chizu vuole gestire un ristorante di ramen, Ayane punta a un'università di Sapporo; anche Ryu vuole andare al college e continuare a giocare a baseball. Sawako ha sempre pensato che si sarebbe cercata un lavoro dopo la fine della scuola per non gravare economicamente sulle spalle dei genitori. Ma per una persona come lei - in gamba, determinata, sempre pronta a metterci il massimo dell'impegno in tutto quello fa -, le strade disponibili sono tantissime. Perché mettersi dei paletti? Perché precludersi certe strade? Per Sawako è giunto il momento di pensare seriamente al futuro. Lo stesso dicasi per gli altri (più facile a dirsi che a farsi, perché è piuttosto comune ritrovarsi a brancolare nel buio, anche a 30 anni suonati...).

A livello sentimentale, le cose procedono serenamente per Sawako e Shota, dopo il momento angst; Kento sembra vomitare arcobaleni dall'entusiasmo, mentre Ayane mi sembra ancora incerta; Chizu e Ryu devono fare i conti con il loro imbarazzo, soprattutto la ragazza, anche se ormai pure i muri le hanno fatto capire che si devono mettere inseme. Vedremo come procederanno le cose nei prossimi volumi!

😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
Noooo, no, noooooo. No me lo esperaba, no creí que terminara así.aaaah. Esto me sorprendió. Bueno, ya pensaba que quizá al padre de Kazehaya no le iba a gustar su decisión, pero no pensé que reaccionaría así 😱😱😱😱.
Y qué cosas con Ayane! Me parece que Kento va a sufrir 😟😟
Estoy impaciente, Chizuru es muy lentaaaaa.

Muy aparte, debo decir que el hecho de que ya estén pensando en que harán luego de la escuela me pone nostálgica y me hace empatizar con cada uno de ellos. El hecho de que se preocupe si se seguirán viendo es algo por lo que todos los que ya terminamos la escuela nos pone melancólicos.

[Greg · Rating 3 out of 5]

3/5 The main focus shifts away from relationships and onto our heroines plans for the future in volume 19.

It's a decent volume but there's little drama or much going on. Pin get's some time to shine and honestly he's grown on me over the course of the series.

The cast spends their time thinking and talking about what their plans are for once high school is over since next year will be their senior year. Sawako discovers she never really gave it much thought.

Pin on the boy's on the cover this time around.
