恋人になった女子高生二人の修学旅行編。
高校二年生の十月は修学旅行の季節らしい。となると班決めがあって、席を素早く立つ安達の姿が目に飛び込んで来る。
「なにかな足の速い安達」
「班は、一緒で」
「うん」
当然そうなるのだ。
ただ問題は、班を作るには五人必要ということだ。安達の性格からして、二人きりじゃないと不満だろうし、どうしたものか。
意識して準備する物もないし、二泊三日の旅行で私服が必要なわけもなく。流れるままに、ぱーっと、出たとこ勝負でいいかな。

With their school trip looming, Adachi and Shimamura have the potential to really make some memories. Except Adachi is Adachi and being stuck in a group of five brings out her absolute worst self. Is this too much for Shimamura, or is she about to realize something about herself?
The blurb for this volume makes it seem like Adachi is about to reap what she’s sown for being so… uniquely focused… on Shimamura and a valuable lesson is on the horizon. A disaster of a school trip looms ahead and Adachi will learn to share and happily ever after is at hand.
I mean, it’s halfway there.
In possibly the oddest statement ever uttered in the discussion of yuri, Iruma takes a page from Agatha Christie and has penned the conclusion of this saga, just in case, but in a break from Dame Agatha sitting on Poirot’s finale for years, we find out exactly what happens to the girls years from now at the start of the book, promptly throwing any narrative tension right out the window.
Even with the newly minted promise of a happy ending, it does look like this is all headed for disaster, as Shimamura tries to mend fences with Tarumi and grapples with the knowledge that Adachi is not going to be super keen on them hanging out.
Then the three girls Shimamura briefly hung out with a few volumes ago form a group with our leads for the trip and Adachi couldn’t be less interested in making friends. Will she ever learn? Could she possibly make things more awkward for Shimamura, who must hate this by now?
And, somewhat astonishingly, the story takes a crazy swerve and nobody learns anything and we’re left to grapple with the fact that this narrative is not about ironing out the quirks of a codependent relationship, but instead, well, showing these girls simply as they are. And that love is often as much acceptance as it is anything else.
It is a bold move, frankly, that seems to go against common sense until a rather amazing and straightforward chapter where Shimamura actually discusses her relationship with somebody who isn’t Adachi and she (and the audience) get a pinpoint accurate statement that reframes the entire context of this pair as two kind of broken people who love each other and that’s enough.
There are arguments for days to be made about whether any of this is healthy, but at the end of it all it’s about two people who want to be together and manage to make it work. It’s shockingly adult for what you’d mostly expect to be a bit of fluff and even uses the term ‘lesbian’, which is typically a bridge too far for yuri.
It’s also interesting to see little signs of regret from Shimamura about what she’s losing, from Adachi over how Shimamura is comfortable with both Adachi and her family, and the many hints that, for one reason or another, Adachi’s family situation never truly improved. And, yes, how Shimamura views Adachi now versus earlier on in the series.
Of course, there’s still lots of fluff. Adachi and Shimamura are a couple, but Adachi is still an absolute mess and the entire bathing scene is pretty charming in its own way. You can see just how comfortable Shimamura’s getting around her partner at this point and several others.
Said bathing also leads to a brilliant interlude with Hino and Nagafuji, which seems like it’s following on from the chapter before until a line from Hino recontextualizes the whole scene and nearly had me barking with laughter.
On the downside, before we get the catharsis of the school trip’s later portions, the second chapter is definitely a bit more of a drag. This volume also has an overabundance of Yashiro, whose alien antics work best in small doses.
Still, she admittedly comes through for Shimamura a couple of times and even goes as far as to reveal, rather sweetly if you’re a sucker for destiny (and I am sometimes), that the ‘alternate tellings’ from last volume are indeed different realities and that Shimamura is always lost until she finds Adachi and she always does.
4 stars - not the highest heights of the series, but very good none the less. I admittedly did not get quite what I wanted, but it turns out I got what I needed, and that’s, well, that’s the essence of Adachi and Shimamura in a nutshell.

動畫馬上就要開播啦
剛好把最新進度追完~
通常校園主題的作品，教育旅行都會是爆點
不過這集除了再度確認安達是病嬌之外
好像也沒啥爆炸性的進展
究竟為啥會是百合名作?
我對入間的評價越來越低了...
該來買終將外傳洗眼睛了XD

才在第6集決定要繼續看下去的動力
在作者文風的阻礙下又開始缺乏了
看在這集有寫出算是系列結尾的份上
姑且是好評

My only issue with this series is that there isn't 800,000 volumes so I can just read it every night and have them obliterate my anxiety but I suppose rereads will have to do.
September 27, 2022
Por lo que chequé, este columen iba a ser el último volumen para la historia. Pero parece el autor no pensaba dejar muy abierta la historia. Quería cerrar confirmando que si se quedaron juntas.
Es una historia de amor diferente a lo que se suele leer en este tipo de historias. Es dificil de explicarlo pero lo intentaré.
Si hablamos de Adachi, no hay mucho tema. Es un libro abierto, desde el inicio se lee todo lo que siente. Adachi sí pasa por la rutina de una historia de amor. Amistad, negar que le gusta Shimamura, aceptarlo, sufrir por la competencia, confesarse.
La complejidad de la historia es con Shimamura. En toda la historia, del volumen 1 al 8, solo una vez se va a leer que le dice a Adachi que la quiere. Y eso una vez que estaba más dormida que despierta.
Pero aquí es donde cobra importancia todo el tiempo que se tardó la historia en relacionar a los personajes. Vamos por pasos.
En el volumen 1 Shimamura conoce a Adachi quien era solo una conocida más. Adachi era alguien para Shimamura que si la perdía no pasaba nada. Aunque desde el inicio creo que hubo algo diferente de cómo se llevaba con Adachi.
En el voumen 3 ó 4, no recuerdo bien. Shimamura y Adachi entran al segundo año pero Shimamura hace "nuevas amigas" y se empieza a alejar Adachi, le importa un poco pero no mucho como para decir "Bueno, ya ni modo". Aunque sí hay que mencionar que intentó buscar a Adachi una vez pero sin éxito.
En el volumen 5, Adachi le recrimina a Shimamura que sale con alguien más, a lo cuál Shimamura se enoja y le cuelga. Posteriormente le comenta que no está bien que sea su única amiga (que no recaiga todo sobre ella) y le va a ayudar a conocer a más gente. Aunque después de que intanta fallidamente que haga amigas con Hino y su mejor amiga, cuyo nombre no sé cómo se escribe, hay una escena en la que parece que Shimamura se arrepiente de lo que está haciendo.
En volumen 6, Shimamura abre un poco sus emociones y junto con esto descubre el secreto de Adachi, que la quiere no solo como amiga y empieza a cambiar su forma de tratar a Adachi de forma positiva. Y se empieza a dar cuenta, aunque sea un poco, que le emociona esos sentimientos que adachi tiene por ella.
Y todo esto para acabar explicando en el volumen 8, que nunca se le va a leer a Shimamura decirle a Adachi que la quiere. Sabes que la quiere por todo lo que no hacía en los volumenes pasados como buscar a Adachi solo porque sí (siempre era Adachi la que la buscaba), no negar que tiene una relación con Adachi frente a otras personas, aceptar que Adachi no le interesa nadie más que ella, invitarla a echarse una pestañita con ella, y lo principal mostrar que Adachi le importa mucho y sufriría si la pierde. Básicamente hace todo lo que no solia hacer para con otras personas con Adachi. Y aunque ella no se da cuenta ya qué tan entrada está en la relación, llega otra persona a hacérselo saber.
Hay una escena en particular en donde nos dice el autor que Shimamura ya está plenamente entrada en la relación. Cuando andan medio perdidas en la neblina espesa y Shimamura menciona que no tiene miedo de estar perdida en lugares desconocidos siempre y cuando esté con Adachi.
Y bueno el libro empieza contando que siguen juntas 10 años después, entonces sí podemos validar que acabaron siendo pareja.

At first I was so disappointed to see future Adachi still without friends. I guess I'm still disappointed, I don't know. I suppose naturally even 25 year olds(?) wouldn't have everything figured out.
I loved seeing Shimamura so much more different this time around for the Christmas date, so much more determined
And the conversation with Pancho was just great, what an important scene to have

I love these light novels so much and I continue to love them. It was a little confusing at first with the time jump. But I still loved it, seeing a glimpse into their domestic life together. It was nice to see more of Shimamura's feelings for Adachi. It was always clear Adachi loved Shimamura, so it was nice to see Shimamura returned her feelings.

4 stars. This series gets better and better with each book. I love the character development that both girls are going through and their sweet and awkward romance is so cute. I adore them. This one was great and had a lot of great moments of bonding between them.

2 or 2.5?
Pancho best part.

I've been speeding through these volumes for the past month-or-so, and I still haven't grown tired of them. That's good enough for me 💃

adachi's just like my father. pervert.

May 13, 2025Running out of things to say at this point, but this is yet another good volume. I love the direction Shimamura's taken in the last 3-4 volumes.

I really like the approach the writer took in this one.
The format.
Not spoiling anything to say this volume contains the ENDING OF THE ENTIRE THING... basically, and then reframes where we are in a narrative as a "flashback"! It is very interesting and possibly controversial for how it affects the inherent dramatic tension thus far.
It also contains a conversation that basically reinforces some of the more philosophical possibilities from prior volumes and takes it from a possibility space to a truth about its universe(s). That is very interesting and a "big choice" for the series.
I realise that is a way to describe all the things I like about this series, the choices are bold. I do not want to spoil anything, so I will be vague, but I had a lot of concerns about how "healthy" their relationship is and this volume answers that question in a pretty surprising way.
It took me a long time to start to read this because I am getting to the point where I am almost out of stories and I am already getting a little pre-sad to have to leave these characters behind. The next volume is the last until 10 comes out next year. :(

Realmente obtuvimos un gran avance por parte de los sentimientos de shimamura y fue realmente tierno como es que se dio cuenta de esto.
Y también la aparición de yashiro en el viaje XD muy divertido :3

March 4, 2022Iruma writes an ending to a series that he plans on continuing because he thinks he may die before the series is finished. He then tells you to buy his new series Bloom Into You: Regarding Saeki Sayaka. A hilarious punchline but the setup of the joke was too tedious to be entertaining.
