Nasa is so clueless it's easy to forget how smart he is. Tsukasa is so set on being a good wife it's easy to forget how competitive she is. Will the video game battle end before the takoyaki gets soggy?! (Yes, this is very low stakes. And there are plenty of snacks.)
Some nice character growth in this one - we see Tsukasa's competitiveness, Nasa plans a date, and we see his thoughtfulness and quick-wittedness. This is just a cute and fun series. Sure the hesitancy around physical intimacy is a bit old after 5 volumes (just kiss you wife, Nasa!), but there is enough sweetness and mystery here to keep me engaged.
**Thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for a free copy in exchange for an honest review.
More cutesy slice-of-life with the super-chaste newlyweds as they experiment with . . . hugging. And Tsukasa unleashes her full super-competitive gamer girl nature on an surprising and surprisingly strong rival.
This is the last volume my local library has. While I like the series I don't feel strongly enough about it to buy it on my own, and I doubt I'll miss it much if the library never gets more volumes. It's sweet and cute, sure, but it's pure fluff.
This time we get some gaming challenges and Aya decides to go head to head with Tsukasa. A great battle begins as they fight over who is the real gaming champ all while everyone else eats dinner. They have a funny brain twister segment too here. The ending is really cute where Nasa and Tsukasa go for a walk alone and it gets a little hot and heavy at the end there.
Overall, still super wholesome and super cute all wrapped in a nice package. I love this manga.
Nasa and Tsukasa continue their journey into wedded bliss. This time out we get aquarium dates, more maids, general sweetness, a very specific quiz show, and all the slices of life you can stomach.
Fly Me to the Moon runs a knife’s edge in terms of whether it’s going to be a particularly engaging instalment or the same-old-same day-to-day stuff. This time out is definitely firmly in the latter camp as we get a couple nice moments, just not enough to make things really pop.
It’s not like this series is ever terrible, it’s just tragically uneven. For every fun moment or sweet aside there’s something that’s fitfully amusing or just doesn’t click. I wish it was a little more consistent, but it only occasionally becomes something truly special.
Beyond the ludicrous chapter titles, the best chapter this time out has to be a ridiculous aquarium date that does the unexpected by going exactly as planned. The way that suspicious plot points keep showing up only to be absolutely nothing is hilarious - the sudden appearance of a “rival” is a definite laugh.
I think part of the problem is that this volume features a bunch of Aya, who used to have a crush on Nasa, and Tsukasa’s annoying sister. Neither one of these characters particularly interests me and I don’t care much for stories featuring them. The takoyaki party that turns into a video game competition was especially boring to me.
3 stars. There’s not a lot to SAY about Fly Me to the Moon as a rule - the series is very enjoyable and sometimes hits a high note and sometimes just stays in its comfortable groove. This is definitely a groove volume, for all the good and bad that entails.
Não tem muito que dizer, a não ser que poucas páginas, mas foi incrível, pena que em pouco tempo li todo ele e os demais, ficando um gostinho de quero mais, espero que em breve tenha mais... Adoro mangá e esse é um que vale muito ler, pois é uma forma divertida de r a vida a dois sem toda aquele teor sexual, ele tem um conteúdo suave e muito coerente então torna tudo maravilhoso... Pena que acabou...
I continue to love and adore this series. This volume pretty much wraps up what we see in Season 1 of the anime, and I am excited to see where the story continues! They are too adorable, and I want to see where they go from here.
Every volume, I LOL at least half a dozen times. The characters are so interesting and the situational humor that arises really is enjoyable. Nasa, you lucky dog, you! Married to not only a total hottie, but she's also super sweet, super kind, and super cool! Yes, Tsukasa is really quite a wonderful girl. She loves her husband, and often shows it by spoiling him with unbelievably tasty meals. She helps out around the bathhouse, too! Kaname, who I nicknamed "Harley Quinn jr" is really amusing. Bold, brash, sarcastic, and very wise beyond her 15 years. Her older sis, Aya, who's obsessed with Nasa, well she just has to "test out" Tsukasa, to see if she's up to snuff to be Nasa's wife. The only character I don't really care for is Chitose, Tsukasa's younger sister. Shes obsessive herself, as well as neurotic, and a wee bit unhinged. Even the maids are amusing. This really is a fun series.
Nasa and Tsukasa still live in the bath house after the destruction to their apartment, so Tsukasa decides she needs to help out with chores around the bath to repay them for their kindness. Tsukasa and Kaname end up getting pretty close and exchanging nicknames. Older sister Aya still hasn’t given her approval to Tsukasa, especially considering she has had a long-standing crush on Nasa, but Tsukasa starts to win her over with her delicious home-cooked meals. It also turns out that both are highly competitive video-gamers, and they challenge each other to many bouts of a new fighting game and a classic shooting game. Later, Nasa tries to plan a date for the two of them, including a stroll in a park where he hopes to hold Tsukasa’s hand and exchange some smooches.
At this point, I’ve given up on finding out what is different about Tsukasa. It’s clear she’s really old and potentially ageless, but other than that, there haven’t been many clues. Tsukasa prefers the older, classic games, and believes the Sega Genesis to be one of the greatest consoles. Between Tsukasa and Aya, girl-gamers will find some validation in a positive portrayal of girls enjoying and being amazing at playing video games without there being any conversation or dialogue about them being girls and it being impossible for them to be actually good at games. Nasa and Tsukasa are also growing more bold with their affection, but it’s still pretty chaste considering they’re a married couple. Their little “adventures” are adorable and, for the most part, pretty wholesome.
While there's still no sings of aliens... the romance is slowly building up for this newly married couple.
Nasa and Tsukasa are staying at the apartment in the bathhouse and are having a ton of adventures. There is never a boring day with the Arisagawa sisters and the work of running the bathhouse. Tsukasa reveals a new skill and Nasa falls deeper in love with his wife.
This volume features more short chapters with mini stories. There is an introduction for a new character and many funny moments. The illustrations perfectly capture the humor and emotions. The dialogue is to be expected, with more humor than usual. There are fewer awkward scenes but still no aliens.
While I enjoy the characters, I hope something more happens soon. This series is on it's way of remaining dull.
In this volume, our newlyweds get to know each other better, discussing food preferences and such. Also, Tsukasa and Aya bond over retro video games, and Aya admits to herself that Tsukasa is worthy for Nasa (especially after enjoying Tsukasa's home cooked meals!). Nasa gets his wife a smartphone, and finally gets to have a real date with Tsukasa, ending with a walk in the park that (finally!) gets a bit steamy. Still no clue about Tsukasa's mysterious past; it almost feels like it's been forgotten, though I hope the author addresses it soon- I want to know who and/or what she is! Overall, very cute and sweet, and the art remains gorgeous.
The series is cute. Perhaps too cute. Because that's what it relies on, HEAVILY. And then you get a volume like this one where there are rays of hope that there is an actual story in there. That these characters will someday actually DO something (and I'm not just talking sex). We get to learn a bit about Tsukasa with her experiences with some folks around her and Nasa's talents. As a couple they are still about as milquetoast as they can be and after 5 volumes that is a tad off putting (hence the 4-stars). But this one had enough other material to keep me interested. Just hope it can start being more consistent.
Kebahagiaan perkawinan dari Nasa dan Tsukasa masih sustainable. Kali ini kita melihat mereka kencan malam berdua di tempat sepi, kencan di akuarium, serta pesta takoyaki dsb.
Sebenarnya banyak kejadian yang tidak pas bila di masukkan ke dalam komedi manga ini, entah mungkin selera humor itu sangat Japanese style sehingga aku kurang mengerti dengan jokes-nya.
Tapi untungnya banyak humornya yg bersifat universal dan mampu mengocok perut juga. Humor yang seperti ini biasanya datang dari karakter minor dan bukannya main cahara kita.
Manga ini sangat menyenangkan untuk dibaca, setidaknya volume ini lebih baik daripada volume sebelumnya. Pesan yang ada buku ini juga sangat bagus.
This is the first time we've had Tsukasa, Nasa, and all the supporting cast in one volume. I had a lot of fun with this one, introductions and such feel done and now we seem to just focus on the shenanigans of the characters involved. Its impossible to be unhappy reading Tonikawa/Fly Me To The Moon!
I really loved the chapter about Tsukasa’s sister wanting to know where she lives... Tsukasa messing with Chitose made me laugh so hard! “You’re living in playground equipment!?” Hahaha.
Oh and the bonus chapter was cute too. Funny how a hug is almost too much for these two!
In this volume, Tsukasa helps clean the bathhouse and learns more about how Nasa saved the business. They discuss food preferences and take a walk through a park on the way to the store. They then have a takoyaki party with Aya and Kaname where Aya and Tsukasa have a video game battle. Tsukasa and Nasa go on a date to the aquarium. Chitose discovers that the apartment burned down and finds out where Tsukasa and Nasa are now living. She tries to convince Tsukasa to move in with her by bribing her with video games. Tsukasa discovers the world of smartphones. Nasa's former teacher makes an appearance. #FlyMetotheMoonVol5 #NetGalley
