All the backstory in this manga was so adorable, the friendships and ships in this series are super cute. It's such a chill vibe manga too I love it a lot

[Nicolo · Rating 3 out of 5]

I'm glad I didn't drop this after the first volume, because I've settled into the relaxing pace of this manga.

The four main girls have great chemistry, and it is just plain relaxing to read their drama-free interactions. There is also a secondary of young women senior to the four, who are either their cousin, or teachers, and their interactions with each other or with the younger girls are great to read, too.

This manga is just so relaxing, which can be soothing to the tired soul.

Very cute "slice of life" series about a group of friends.

I really like these characters and look forward to following their story in future volumes!

Also, the artwork is fairly detailed for a manga.

love this rn, very queerplantonic relationship anarchy vibes. also really good and helpful while im thinking about autistic joy and what rest + leisure can look like among friends - lots of examples of this! :)

Super cute really

[Jill · Rating 3 out of 5]

Cute story, very slow moving. I'm hoping the next volume develops the relationships more. I'll definitely be checking out volume 3!

[Kristen · Rating 4 out of 5]

This series is wildly adorable. Slightly hard to follow sometimes with stories jumping from different groups, but overall very cute.

[Medusa :) · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was super super fun and I really love the characters! I died every time Mafuyu or Koharu gay panicked because I can relate lol

這一兩年除了論文課本datasheet之外
讀最多的英文書就是英譯日漫了
漫畫雖然字少，但讀起來還是挺吃力的
不知道何時才能挑戰魔戒喔Orz
這本的第一話特多不認識的字
很多是俚語超難查，就算找到的網路上的俚語字點也不一定有解釋
我的英文脫離專業領域果然就不行啦
口語和漫畫這種很生活化的東西都好難喔Orz

第二集英譯剛出，GR還沒有評論
隨便看看第一集的洋人評價
大多數都覺得步調太慢，缺少感情戲
看起來洋人好像比較不吃日式細膩這套
不過從銷量看起來
同為東方人也是不少人不吃日常@@
但我覺得日常要畫得好也很難耶

然而何謂日常呢?
第二集固然還是有日常生活的片段
還讓更多角色一起來百合
表姊和老師們也要百合一下
反正就是整本書有男性角色出現的地方不到五格
而且都是路人啦~

但這一集也講了實里幼年喪母
七椰知道之後每天都一早就到實里家一起上學
陪實里玩，直到上高中也是如此
還有小春夢裡對真冬不告而別耿耿於懷
最後變成恐懼真冬又不見了
這樣也叫日常嗎??

所謂日常系漫畫，若不擬真到一個程度
似乎就無法表達日常的氛圍了
這一集也是畫功驚人
人體間架精準，背景也像是用照片刻出來的一樣~
人物衣服貼肉的皺折也都仔細畫出來，超有真實感
但又故意大頭大眼睛，讓角色看起來比實際年齡小不少
(看一些評論感覺洋人很難接受這種萌化的技法XD)
從一些分鏡默默賣肉的方式看，作者應該是男的吧?

不~~~第三集還要等到七月
而且是最後一本了Orz
看來要像四葉妹妹那樣有那麼多哽也是很考驗才情的
唉~~

PS有一話JK四人組想去租DVD
一個說要看瓦力，另一個說想看尼莫
真好奇日文也是寫皮克斯作品嗎?

下面是這本查的單字和片語
In a pickle = 碰到麻煩
Drink the rest = 喝剩下的
Ditch someone = 拋棄某人
Gross old man = 粗魯的人
Call dibs = Expression used to claim rights/possesion on sth./sb.
Mi casa es su casa = (more informal) is Spanish for "My house is your house".
連西班牙文都跑出來是那招...
Dumb Ol' Dummy = Dumb Dummy = A person lacking common sense. An idiot.
Ol' = Old 發語詞，無意。這有夠難查，字典上都沒有...
Drops by now and then = 不時拜訪

Wrinkly = 皺紋
Sober = 清醒
Addicted = 沉迷，在漫畫的語境應該是上癮吧
House blend = 家常咖啡
Overwhelmed = 不知所措
Extortion = 敲詐勒索
Tenderize = 嫩化
Knead = 揉
Residual = 剩餘的
Frickin = Fu*k
Cramped = 狹窄的
Stool = 高腳椅
Sprouts = 豆芽
Kiddo = Someone who is at least slightly younger then you in age
Fried rice = 炒飯？

下面是日文名羅馬拼音嘗試對出漢字
Himuro Shoko 布卡翻冰室照子，大概原作有漢字吧，但在別的地方看是翻Shouko，七海版的沒長音標記o_O?
Kawai Sayo 川井沙耶? (老師之一的名字出現了)
Taoka 田岡?

以下這兩個字該不會是收入英文字典的日文吧?
Futon = 布団(ふとん ) = 被子，狗大神說是廣為世界所知的日文
Onsen = 溫泉，這不懂日文的到底要怎麼讀啊...英文應該會先說Spring?

OK so even though this is the penultimate volume, the romance really takes a backseat. It fully becomes slice of life about these friends in a small town. Which I think this comic does VERY well. You get screentime for the whole cast, even the adult characters have their own chapter. Also Nanaya and Minori being on the cover summarizes this whole volume. It's really about them more than Mafuyu and Koharu. Which I don't mind cuz I like the whole cast.
The atmopshere of the comic is very cozy and fun also. I didn't have a good HS experience so reading this is nice idk maybe that's why I like it.
Anyways this is a very simple and chill story that I love.
Proper review later my brain's kinda full of jellybeans.

[Mia Ferraioli · Rating 3 out of 5]

The manga was cute. It's a slice of life, so it goes slow. It's even slower because it takes place in the countryside. The slow pace may not be for everyone, but I kind of enjoyed the, for lack of better word, snapshots of these high school kids' day to day life. We got a bit more backstory, and we can see the budding of a few romances.

Overall, it was slow but with a cozy feel. It's nothing spectacular (though I love the art), but it's not horrible either. It's a quick read for those looking to chill out and relax. I give it a safe 3 out of 5 stars.

[Des Fox · Rating 5 out of 5]

Just blissful. The characters are great, and while there's no conflict to hold onto, the slice of life is top notch. The rural Japan setting is so refreshing and joyful. The art in how it depicts the homes and countryside is excellent and really established a place for your heart to settle into alongside the girls. The backstory at the end was heart wrenching, and while there's little romantic momentum in this volume, it was such a peaceful meditative read I could do it a hundred times over.

[Sheepy · Rating 5 out of 5]

Onto the second volume & its still such a good read, its just so wholesome & easy to get into.
I really like all the characters, plus I'm wondering if there is going to be a moment for each pair in volume 3!

[Anisur Rahman · Rating 5 out of 5]

It's cute, same thoughts as volume #1. But it's also as good. Just can't get over it. I can keep reading this story forever. Those 4 friends, their daily life and unknown feelings for each other. It's so warm.
I love the art, it's the best.

[David Doel · Rating 4 out of 5]

This series is described as a mix of yuri and slice-of-life. For the first 2 volumes the mix is about 98% slice-of-life and 2% yuri. That's okay with me.

The story is okay, but I don't have volume 3 and I won't try to get it.

[Jamie (TheRebelliousReader) · Rating 4 out of 5]

4 stars. The last chapter focusing on Minori and Nana's friendship from when they were little melted my heart. Heartbreaking but so sweet. I really like this series. It's very chill and relaxing with a great cast of characters.

[Devinne Ch · Rating 4 out of 5]

Ok... I'm loving this 🥺
Quite a cozy atmosphere, a nice story, cute characters and heartwarming friendships.
Not really something I choose to read frequently, but when I'm in the mood, I definitely can enjoy it well

[L. Luck · Rating 2 out of 5]

It was okay, but just... really boring and predictable. The first volume was too, so this is probably me DNF’ing the series...

2*

[Bentgaidin · Rating 4 out of 5]

Slow movement on the relationship front, but lots of sweet summer days in the meantime.

[Moriah Venable · Rating 4 out of 5]

It was great to see more of Minori and Nanaya's friendship.

I enjoyed Minori and Mafuyu going to the cafe and talking.

[HArlow B · Rating 5 out of 5]

amazing

[Bee (BacchusVines) · Rating 4 out of 5]

I love getting more of Minori's and Nanaya's friendship in this volume. This is like best friend goals.

[Jules :) · Rating 4 out of 5]

[gigi :)]

[Lisa · Rating 4 out of 5]

This volume had a lot of heart and sweet moments that weren't just (kind of creepy) pining. Friendships were explored and were built up. The beach section was really sweet too.
