I don't understand what the author wanted to show with this story.
Why make Nino go through all those thoughtful revelations (that she sang so focused on Momo that she didn't think about what she would do when she did have him, and that the one who helped her sing all along was Yuzu) and then make her end up with Momo and not Yuzu? It passed me the message that, despite me thinking Nino had changed, she went right back to the selfish girl I'd seen from the beginning of the story. I've never seen a protagonist as self-centered as Nino, which angers me a little. Not sure why I was so surprised by her decision, given that fact. Anyway. Other characters had some kind of development, like Yuzu himself (that was nicely handled), Kuro (a little shallow, but okay - not sure if it's worth commenting about that), Miou and Haruyoshi, and so on, but not the protagonist herself? In the end, Nino and Momo cling onto the memory from childhood throughout their entire story arc, without regarding that they might not be the same people they were when they were kids. Disregarding everything they lived in between. Forgive the comparison, but that's something Ao Haru Ride did well. Futaba and Kou liked each other when they were children and, when they reunite in high school, they realize they've changed. But, after trying to go back to the way things were, they learn to love the new versions of themselves. I don't feel like that happens in Fukumenkei Noise. Nino and Momo are just together because that was expected.
I'm sorry, but I simply can't empathize with Momo. I tried. I don't like that character at all. I like a few things about Nino, but nothing about him. But I feel like things wouldn't go so smoothly between him and Yuzu if Nino had chosen the latter. Momo wouldn't have been so mature about the situation like Yuzu. So, yeah. I am glad Yuzu got to be happy and conquer the world. I think he deserved more, but at the same time Nino didn't deserve him. She and Momo deserve each other, because I don't think either of them showed much development. (They don't have any chemistry!!! They're just so shallow, sorry).
As much as it sounds like I'm just bitter because "my ship didn't sail", I think it's more than that. I can live with couples I like not ending up together. What I don't like is poorly-handled plots and characters. If the rest of the story makes up for it, I'm okay with that. This isn't the case.
Forgive the salty rant. I needed to get this out.

What a beautiful and amazing conclusion to this series!
After all the tears I wanted to cry because of heartbreak and such in these last few volumes, I was unsure how much I would love this final volume. However, it was perfect.
It truly was everything I had wanted and loved how it truly wrapped up (referring to those last few pages).
It was absolutely beautiful and I definitely cried a little bit when reading this one. Lots of good and new things on the horizon for these amazing characters. <3
I would definitely recommend this series! It will be a special one in my heart after reading it because I cannot get over how all of them grew so much and just how powerfully they impacted me.
I really wish it wasn't over yet...

I have to say I'm so disappointed. I never leave a review or comment, but I loved this series so much until this point. It should have been Yuzu, the development and chemistry was blatantly there. I never thought the author would do it so dirty like that. Everyone else made the progress and grew, then they just left all that behind with Nino. She made such progress and then dropped all of it for Momo. There is no chemistry between them, they are significantly different people from when they were children and they just don't fit at all. I had hope right until that last moment that the mangaka would give Yuzu what he deserved...

(Voy a aprovechar para hacer una pequeña reseña de la obra completa, 18 tomos completitos. La acabé esta mañana, así que se viene mucho hype.)
Antes de nada: no veáis el anime. Leed el manga. De verdad, nada que ver.
Este año he tenido la suerte de ver y leer obras muy chulas. Pero lo de Fukumenkei Noise es otro nivel.
No me malinterpretéis: no es una obra innovadora ni excepcional. No es excesivamente original, ni tiene una trama compleja; algunos pjs se quedan a medio gas (y eso que no hay tantos), y existen ciertas lagunas que, si las piensas, se pueden rellenar... pero se quedan en subtexto, e incluso me atrevería a decir que la autora no las ha tenido en cuenta.
Sin embargo, tengo que decir dos puntos positivos de la obra en un apartado genérico: el primero su arte (tanto a nivel de dibujo como literario; esos paneles distribuidos en varias páginas para formar un mensaje eran BRUTÍSIMOS. Además, muchas de sus escenas conseguían ponerme el corazón a 2000; está señora tiene un manejo de la tensión muy notable) y... el segundo la dejo para la zona de spoilers.
Entonces, ¿por qué, hasta la fecha, es mi obra favorita del año? Pues bien. Porque es, con diferencia, lo que más me ha llegado al alma en todo el año. Y el motivo es esencialmente uno: Yuzuriha Kanade.
Joder, Yuzu, qué pedazo de personaje eres.
A pesar de que la protagonista es Nino, el foco está muy compartido con Yuzu; es más, creo haber notado que, poco a poco, la obra va despegándose de ella para centrarse en mi adorado Pestañas. Su personalidad ya era atrayente desde un inicio, pero conforme vamos conociendo su historia y cómo la ha afrontado, los palos de su vida, su drama actual... y, sobre todo, cuando vemos su evolución, no podemos más que rendirnos ante él. Todo esto sin contar con que la autora ha tenido un atino increíble a la hora de diseñar el personaje, que es (para mi gusto) carismático, precioso, cuqui y atractivo a partes iguales.
Además, creo que este amor por Yuzu no es algo mío. No en vano el hashtag #TeamYuzu está dondequiera que haya alguien hablando de esta obra.
No es el único personaje notable. Miou, para mí, tenía un potencial impresionante, y su relación con Nino era digna de leer; la propia Nino me flipaba (tiene una personalidad súper agradable de leer, fresca, divertida e intensa); y Haruyoshi, que se comía las páginas enteras porque es, exactamente, un(¿a?) Queen.
Sin embargo, tengo dos pegas en cuanto a personajes: Momo y Kuro. Que Kuro esté a medio gas, pues bueno... pero ¿Momo? Que un personaje del supuesto trío principal se quede a medio gas es un punto bastante malo, a mi parecer.
Antes de entrar en spoilers, decir que el tomo 10 es la leche. Y ahora diré por qué.

LA
OBRA
PORFA
vale
doy por hecho de que, si sigues aquí, es porque 1) has acabado Fukumenkei Noise o 2) te van los spoilers, así que VAMOS A POR ELLO.
Primero, hablaré de mi top 3 MOMENTAZOS de la serie. ✨
-El tomo 10, en general, es buenísimo. Abarca la pérdida total de la voz de Yuzu (aunque esta mini trama comienza al final del tomo 9), así como la confesión a Alice y la primera vez que es capaz de cantar en toda la obra. Like. Por dios, cuánta intensidad en solo 7 capítulos.
-El momento en el que Nino habla sobre su vínculo con Yuzu (cap. 58, creo recordar), considerándolo como algo más poderoso que la amistad, que la familia y que el amor que siente por Momo. Porque (aunque, por la felicidad de Yuzu, deseaba que quedasen juntos) sí: hay más vínculos importantes además del amor romántico.
-Relacionado con el punto anterior, el darse cuenta de Alice de que su voz "pertenecía" a Yuzu. Y el momento en el que se lo confiesa a él.
Todo esto, estos tres momentos, vienen a hablar de lo más bonito que hay en la serie: los enlaces que se pueden llegar a crear a través de la música. La importancia de ella en la vida de un músico. La suerte que tuvieron esos dos capullos de Alice y Yuzu de encontrarse en el camino... Ya quisiera yo tener un vínculo musical así con alguien, la verdad.
Y, de ahí, saco el segundo gran punto bueno de la serie: y es su temática real. A pesar de tratar sobre música y un triángulo amoroso, la propia autora lo dice al comenzar el primer tomo: Fukumenkei Noise es una historia de amor no correspondido.
Junto a Nino, Yuzu es el foco, el punto desde el que pivota toda la trama; como ya dije, pienso que Yuzu tiene incluso más importancia que Nino a lo largo de la trama. Y yo, jamás en la vida, he leído una obra en la que se mire desde la perspectiva del protagonista un desamor que "no acaba bien" (por así decirlo). En ese aspecto, para mí FukuNoise sí que es original y excepcional; yo, al menos, no había leído ninguna historia de desamor tan intensa y dolorosa en 1ª persona. Y esta mangaka lo hace maravillosamente, convirtiendo a un niño tsundere, inseguro y posesivo en un tipo maduro y elegante, siendo un amigo excepcional en su camino de evolución. He sufrido con él, rezado con él, deseado y llorado con él. Es un personaje verdaderamente mágico, y él casi solito se ha marcado 104 capítulos. ÉL CASI SOLITO. 104.
¿Conclusión? Yuzu deserved better. Aunque en el epílogo parecía feliz. De todas maneras, ojalá un spin-off del futuro de Pestañas; sería la leche.
Ojalá no pase mucho tiempo antes de encontrar una historia que me llegue tanto al corazón.

4.5 stars!
AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH Can't believe I finally finished reading this!!!!
Overall, this series had its downs, but I would like to focus on the good things this series had first. For one, I always loved the Rock Horizon arcs they do. In fact, the Rock Horizon art/story in this last volume is probably the best one yet. You can see the effort and the details Fukuyama-sensei drew and put into this. I'm also happy to have seen everyone developed so much throughout the course of this series (besides Momo who I felt only developed a little but more on that later). I said it during the first volume reviews I did, but I really hoped to see some character developments into these leads and I am glad I got to see them. One of my common issues with mangas as well is how sometimes you can feel the mangaka trying to elongate the story even though it should have been finished a few volumes ago, and while there were some bad volumes here, I'm glad she was able to pull through during the last 4 volumes to give us readers a satisfying conclusion.
Now time for the bad ones. I mean when I first read into this, I had a feeling that Nino and Momo would probably end up together. Nonetheless, I am pretty bummed at it happening. Throughout the story, it has always been Yuzu who has been supporting Nino. It has always been Yuzu besides Nino. And then Nino still chooses Momo in the end? I guess one of my main problems here is that while we do see that Momo has feelings for Nino, it was not as shown as much as how Yuzu really cared and appreciated for Alice.
For me, Yuzu was really the best character in this series and seeing him grow was probably my most favorite part here. I guess the second-lead syndrome was strong on this one, huh?
Anyway, thank you Fukuyama-sensei! And to anyone planning on reading this, this is not a perfect series in any means, but if you like angst and rock music, you might like this one as well.

It’s been months since I’ve finished reading this, and I’m still pissed.
It feels like the author got lazy at the end, or changed their mind last minute. That’s the only reason I can think of as to why Alice ended up with Momo, when the entire series built it up the other way. It would have been disappointing but still fair had Momo played a bigger part in the entire series, or had more focus/growth on his relationship with Alice, but it felt like he played a minor role the entire time. It felt like we were being led in one direction only to have the rug pulled out from under us. It felt deceptive and cheap, and that’s why I’m so mad (and I usually don’t get this angry over how series end, even if I don’t agree with it).
Alice showed immense growth whenever she WASN’T with Momo, and it seemed clear to me that their relationship wasn’t healthy for either of them. With Yuzu, Alice flourished. He encouraged her to push her boundaries, called her out on her bullshit, and was willing to let her go when he felt that would be what was best for her. Those are all the traits the main love interest usually - and should - have. I only saw her going backwards whenever she was with Momo, and didn’t understand her obsession with him. It felt like she was holding onto a dream from her childhood, and refusing to see who he grew up to be.
So yeah, the friendship arc was cute but it didn’t feel satisfying at all with everything the rest of the series seemed to build up to. It would have been more impactful had she realized that while she loved Momo at an earlier time in her life, they both grew up and grew apart and it was time for her to let that childhood romance go.

although I'm ultimately disappointed the author teased us about our mc ending up with another character, the way this story ended was actually incredibly perfect and I've realised this is probably the best ending we could have gotten. so fucking heartfelt and beautiful and just..... tender
WILL MISS THIS MANGA SO MUCH

A beautiful end to the series. I did still want her to end up with Yuzu...I just felt their connection so much more than the one she had with Momo. But, oh well--"First Boy Wins" again, I guess.
Still, it's very clear that Yuzu is even more dear and important to her than Momo...and bonds of love and affection don't always have to be romantic. So long as they can sing together, they'll be closer to each other than anyone else...and that makes it a happy enough ending, even if it might still be a little rough on Yuzu.

Ah, a good end to an awesome, addictive series. All the characters have matured wonderfully and have learned that they can be together but also be independent. Ah, so nice to see that in YA stuff.
While everything wrapped up happily in ways that I was hoping for, I can’t help but feel it was a tad anticlimactic. After all, there was so much angst and build up (especially with the three main protagonists), but there wasn’t much time spent getting that closure before the last chapter (which feels like an incomplete epilogue). For instance, when Nino and Momo finally get their make-up moment, it went by so quickly and didn’t delve into their thoughts as much as previous encounters. Then boom! Two years later everyone’s doing their post-high school stuff but wait! We’ve got an Inohari meeting! As I said, it’s all sweet but the rush left me feeling a bit unsatisfied.
Mostly, I’m unsatisfied that the romance didn’t get more attention in the end since it got soooo much attention throughout the series. I want to know more about Nino and Momo. Are they more open with their feelings now? Do they embrace more now? And I do like that Nino is set on living on her own first, what kinds of things have they planned for their relationship? I want to know!
I’m hoping somewhere down the line there’ll be some nice epilogue chapters, but until then I’m happy with this ending.
PS.
I watched the anime series first, then binged all the manga in two days because I just couldn’t get enough!
PPS.
Discovered the live-action film, and oh my! The OST's pretty cool too, and there were some nice moments that I really liked, but the ending! Aiyah! To be fair, it came out while the manga series was still ongoing, but the film gave the impression that she chose Yuzu over Momo... and it also made Momo seem like a butt. Oh well.

Overall one of the most enjoyable reads I’ve had in a while, the last volume gets a 4 star instead of 5 because although most of the character arcs were ended really well the main love triangle didn’t resolve in a satisfying way for me personally. I felt as though the author put so much stock into the growth and love developed between Yuzu and Nino that it made no sense for Nino to not change. She still always went back to Momo for no real solid reason. He generally treated her like an object for most of the story. For her to not realize that her love for Momo was in the past, very superficial, and almost entirely physical blows my mind. Yuzu clearly not only loved her in word and song but in every action he took.
The deeper love she experienced with Yuzu should have ended in them being together based on how the story itself was told. I get that the author was trying to make Nino’s love for Yuzu transcend sexual attraction but it fell so flat. Physical attraction is so much less important than who the person is. Instead of elevating Nino’s love it did the exact opposite, it cheapened it. It was as if the story built up to a climax that didn’t happen. If Momo was to be the ultimate love interest then he should have been made far more likable from the beginning and had way more screen time to justify her decision which ultimately felt shallow, petty, and stuck in the past.
All that to say, I’m definitely team Yuzu and he needs a spin off manga all his own where he gets a girl who really loves him because man, he’s just stellar.

I was so conflicted when rating this volume because it was soooo much better to me than the previous few volumes. I will say that I don’t like the Momo/Nino relationship because it’s just so toxic but I also don’t like Nino with Yuzu because he deserves better so I guess it worked out. I enjoyed the flow of this manga until the epilogue. Everything felt too wrapped up & perfect considering how angsty the whole series was. Although I don’t expect them to necessarily carry all of these feelings into adulthood (because let’s admit it, we usually feel everything more intensely as teenagers) I also felt like they matured too quickly in such a short period of time. Overall a series I loved in the beginning, was incredibly bored by in the middle, then left with lukewarm feelings after the conclusion.

Honestly the series ends how I expected, not making sense and a bit annoying. The band gets back together and has the best show in the whole series, that was the good. Suddenly Nino doesn't sing bad, which was a major annoying point throughout the series. Nino sings great and at the end she does what she has done the whole series, suddenly leave the stage and go after Momo to confess her love once again. The lack of stable character growth in Nino, it does happen and then back slides, is annoying.

I can't believe it's over. I also can't give it a full 5 stars because even though it ended exactly how I thought it would, the missing star is for Yuzu. I loved this series overall.

Fue una tortura leer esto completo. El anime es como si quitaran el relleno innecesario de la trama, sin duda esta historia intentó ser un full moon wo sagashite y Nana, peorcito con Beck obras que tienen sus defectos pero fueron icónicas en los 2000's.
Preludio: El descenso al infierno narrativo.
La música es decente en el anime. Aquí trata de parecerse a los black stones sin el punk pero es parecido a trapnest, el último es el evidente que quisieron inspirarse, esto no les funcionó. Me recordó a Beck por los lugares que dieron sus conciertos. Por eso siento la razón como este manga fue olvidado muy rápido.
Este manga fue la razón, no haber tenido su segunda temporada. Y su live action, ¿Por que pusieron música tan sosa e insípida? a algo que en el anime fue decente pero vacía. La Nino del live es demasiado hermosa para ser descrita en el manga.
Mi reacción en todo el manga y en especial cuando el drama era bien innecesario.
Aunque es más parecido a Nana en el concepto del romance y el romanticismo en el concepto de las bandas musicales. Aunque lo del amor no correspondido quiere ponerlo con el calzador en el avance de una trama tan nefasta, no me refiero fuera un hentai ni adulto, si no el exceso de malos entendidos y el estiramiento de una historia hubiera quedado en menos de cinco tomos.
Los personajes: Personajes planos a tal grado que son solo maniquíes, los mueven la trama por una autora, no sabe darles un manejo coherente.
Miren, desgraciadamente, Nino es un personaje muy malo desde el inicio y fin del último tomo de esta basura. En mi país las chicas como Nino, son conocidas como calienta huevos o alborta ilusiones a cualquier persona que aman. Y me parece querían hacer una chica neurodivergente, esto les salió fatal. Los personajes de la banda solo están para cumplir el esteriotipos de compas nomas porque nunca pude empatizar con ellos. Incluso los secundarios de Nana, me hacían más humanos podía yo llorar con sus pasados. Me desespera el diseño de personaje, me era muy complicado, escogerle ropa le hubiera favorecido. Me emperro que nomás andando con Momo, se le fuera la voz, cuando terminaron estos idiotas, se le devuelve su voz angelical en el canto.
Es una burla o que mierdas se le ocurren. Voy a parafrasear full moon: "la enfermedad de Mitsuki era terrible un cáncer en la garganta en el cual, ella debe operarse de emergencia, retirando su garganta para evitar tener metástasis en todo el cuerpo. Donde va quedar muda de por vida ni siquiera va a hablar al concluir el manga."
En serio, añadiendo a enfermedades mentales y trastornos físicos, lo de Yuzu, fue una ridiculez en añadirle un tipo de enfermedad así. Debía haber investigado sobre los trastornos por el estrés postraumático, sin ser irrespetuoso con personas realmente que han perdido su voz por cáncer o tener una discapacidad.
Kuro, ¿el we que toca la batería? el romance con la novia de su hermano, nunca creí disgustarse como manejaron un tema muy serio tabú que fuera un shojo genérico. Añadiendo una novia al final de la historia, ni la chica no tuvo un gramo de personalidad. La personalidad de Ayumi era muy plana en todo el avance de la trama.
An, ¿Para qué introducir un personaje a varios tomos a terminar? No niego pudo haber sido el personaje menos me irritó pero bien nula de carácter, digo de nuevo; ¿Por qué poner un personaje no va a aportar nada?
Miou, sin duda no sé porque añadirla a la trama si no hace nada. Es solo la que al final tiene una relación con Haruyoshi, nunca hubo un desarrollo entre ellos que fuera neutral o incluso una amistad solo es como una relación rebote para ella por beneficio personal. Su relación con Nino intenta verse natural, pero la verdad es demasiado superficial a mi gusto.
Haruyoshi, lo detesto. La verdad es un personaje muy errático en cuanto con Yuzu, lo he visto como el tropo del mejor amigo envidioso porque está enamorado de Miou. Su relación con Miou es relleno y no me agradan las sub parejas en tramas de triángulos amorosos.
Momo, te aborrezco y eres cagada me hizo querer aguantar no tirar mi laptop por mi frustración. El tipo trato tan mal a Nino, esto hacía desgastar emocionalmente a la chiquilla. Y la acosaba en la mitad de la trama, ¿neta?
Este ojete es el que se encapricho la protagonista. A ver en el concepto coherente, ¿Cómo carajos es un exitoso de la industria de la música? Incluso mucha gente común en general no puede subir tan rápido en la rama laboral. Inconsistencias, se que es ficción pero no la chinguen, ni en full moon había tantas facilidades de ascender. Ah, me desagradó mucho que este we le pagara la deuda de su padre, en vez de la desquiciada mujer llamada por madre, me la intentaron poner como una psicópata, cambia por completo trabajando en un tienda de conveniencia: ¿En serio, autora? darle un cambiazo a una irresponsable con el imbécil de su ex marido, haber llamado a la policía por fraude o no lo sé. Aquí no hay mucho sentido común en los adultos.
Cuando te interesan más los personajes terciarios. Y además, como desperdiciar otras subtramas.
El conocido de la primaria de Nino. Mikota, sin duda el mejor personaje terciario, que me hubiera encantado verlo como el otro chico, atraído por ella desde la infancia. Pero sin saberlo, es decir un amor cien por ciento platónico, él hubiera sido de gran ayuda a que Nino avanzara, sin obtener nada a cambio o un girazo de trama: Estando de novio con Nino en la universidad, o incluso ser un nuevo amigo de ella dentro de la trama.
El mejor amigo de Mikota. Otro personaje que realmente quería ser amigo de Nino desde la primaria; este dúo parecía ser los futuros amigos exteriores en el club de musica, o posibles que se juntaran por estar cerca de Nino.
Ellos me agradaron más que los principales. Por su naturalidad que hablaban con Nino y anhelando una amistad por uno, e incluso Mikota queriendo un romance con ella sin darse él mismo cuenta con avance de los capítulos.
Pero la autora decidió desecharlos sin ningún motivo. Al igual, el dúo rival que hubieran sido prometedores, y no lo fueron. Recuerdo sus nombres pero, son personajes planisimos que no aportan nada, el romance de ellos, es neutro y resulta agradable pero innecesario en una historia sobre estirada. El vocalista de Girlless, que desperdició de un tercero en el triángulo amoroso, la verdad me hubiera encantado verlo, seducir a Nino para tener una noche de sexo explícito duro. Eso hubiera dado un trauma a la protagonista más creíble.
La creadora debe enfocarse en dar un trasfondo maduro en una historia. Y me molestaba algunas ilustraciones con poses de connotaciones sexuales, ¿Para qué me las añades esto?, si estos weyes ni van a fajar ni cojer en ningún momento. No hagan eso.
A continuación daré introducción al personaje yo adoro con toda mi alma:
A little pain : Kanade Yuzuriha, el personaje con un desarrollo decente y el narrador en voz en voz desde el inicio y final. Desperdiciado una de las mejores parejas con una química asombrosa.
Yuzu, el personaje que empatice desde el anime. Ese hombre merece triunfar en su vida. Este es el personaje decente y que yo soporte leer. Es el protagonista verdadero de la historia. El ama a Nino que tuvo que dejarla ir, eso como un varón es muy doloroso para el orgullo. Lo que me disgusto mucho es que su estrés postraumático fuera una enfermedad de su garganta.
Yuzu ha llegado a un límite en donde le entregó todo a la egoísta de Nino. Hacer una banda musical para poder ser exitosos en japón, componer música y estrofas de canciones por ella; me molesta mucho que dicen lo detestan porque hizo cosas sin consentimiento.
Las relaciones forzadas.
Momo y Nino: Relación inexistente de química y desarrollo.
Estos dos, nunca me convencieron como pareja. Momo es más un imbécil que resulta muy repelente para el público; sin duda, Nino es un plot device a la norma. Y no puedo creer que en la mediocre película live action te da entender que ella manda a la verga al muchacho.
Momo necesita terapia. Nino no se tiene amor propio desde el principio. No tengo mucho que decir sobre una relación nada desarrollada. Momo parece aborrecerla, ni siquiera en sus momentos de la infancia son creíbles. La pareja se define como co dependiente por parte de ella.
La historia centrando mucho a un amor de la infancia, es inverosímil hasta sin sustancia. No empatizó con Momo, me es indiferente Nino por igual. Me enfurece la creadora no se animará a dar una trama que no fuera un romance generico shojo.
Haruyoshi y Miou: ¿Está relación realmente era necesaria?
Ellos no tienen ni siquiera la razón de estar juntos. Seamos sinceros, Miou lo usa como relación rebote y en la realidad ellos hubieran salido lastimados porque no se ha curado de Yuzuhira desde habían terminado. La verdad me es indiferente porque son como los catalogan: Pareja de relleno.
Miou no me importa. Ni el we enamorado de ella, es como un capricho de él.

Ça y est, j'ai fini....
C'était incroyable ! Certainement un de mes mangas préféré!
Je suis quand même déçue de la fin. J'espérais vraiment que Nino finisse avec Yuzu. Avec les derniers tomes, tout semblait aller dans ce sens, notamment avec un tome en particulier qui montre le trouble que Yuzu cause en Nino.
Mais bon. Je reste un peu déçue de cela.
Je suis un peu triste que Yuzu soit le seul à ne pas avoir trouvé l'amour alors que c'est lui qui l'a le mieux Illustré dans tout le manga :( mais le plus important, c'est qu'à la fin, chacun s'épanouisse à sa manière !
Cependant, il y a pleins d'autres choses supers à mentionner!
Les personnages et leurs relations évoluent super bien! Je pense notament à Nino, Yuzu et Momo qui ont une évolution intéressante!
Je suis très contente que les personnages secondaires aient tous leur histoire, leurs moments à eux et ne soient pas mis de côté, ça c'est super!
Je suis un peu déçue de l'évolution de la relation entre Yuzu et sa mère que j'ai trouvé trop brusque: c'était une relation très compliquée qui n'a pas bougé en 16 tomes, et qui s'est arrangée pour le mieux en 2 tomes....
Mais j'ai adoré l'histoire et je suis contente d'avoir lu les scans, qui m'ont fait découvrir la meilleure partie de l'histoire qui n'a malheureusement pas été animée

Wow, Nino practicing her guitar playing for five hours straight is dedication👏
Aww, Yuzu’s mom already accepted that his son will do music as long as he can. Yay! Progress💕
“My voice belongs to you, Yuzu,” - Nino 💕
I’m so proud of In No Hurry to Shout♥️ I’ll surely miss these peeps💛
Yuzu inspired so many people around him. I’m so happy that his voice is back🔥
I’m so happy that Nino gets to fly even though she got “injured” a couple of times. I guess, those failed attempts made her flight sweeter.😻
Wah! Yuzu got shut down by Nino😭 But, I’m glad that he’s still happy because she said that her voice belongs to him and that’s enough for him.🥺
Aw, Nino, and Momo finally get together. I hope for a long time💕
In No Hurry to Shout with Silent Black Kitty joint festival sounds chaos to me🤭
Whoa! Yuzu and Momo working together. Damn💚
Aw, Yuzu, and Nino are destined to be great friends for life. I love it🔥
It sure is as hell as a rollercoaster ride, but it’s the end of the journey for this manga.🍒
Aw, Yuzu and Nino officially studying music gave me so many feels💖
Thank you so much for sharing your story and art with the world, Ryoko. I appreciate the characters and stories you produced. 💕

SERIES DONE! I enjoyed it. Not groundbreaking or anything probably won't read again. But I do plan to watch the anime. I wanna see how the music is interpreted for the anime. I don't expect it to get the Nana treatment. But I kinda wanna hear these damn songs.
So Nino makes her choice and confesses. I honestly didn't care who she ended up with since I didn't care how Momo and Yuzu (I think the short ones name is Yuzu. I became unable to tell them apart after a while, since they look so damn similar. Both have black hair except one's hair is wavy/curly. One's taller than the other and one wears glasses and the other doesn't.) treat Nino as if she is some type of thing to own simply because of her singing. I hated the I only want her singing my songs shit they had going on.
I did like the little time skip. It went from Yuzu returning from his travels. Them playing their big show. And then jumps to them being 20/21 and in/starting college.

I love that ending.
Nino and Yuzu’s friendship was so precious. I wanted more for them earlier in the series but then I realized that this wasn’t a love triangle. It was always Momo for Nino. She made that clear throughout the series.
Overall I give this series a 3.5/5 stars! It would be higher if the middle chunk of volumes were condensed lol. It felt like the story didn’t move much in the middle of the series. I also felt like the author wanted to piss everyone off by having Momo and Nino break up after waiting so long for them to get together in the first place. Gave us Yuzu lovers some false hope!!! Lol.
I also think the concert scenes would be better if we could at least see the lyrics since we can’t literally hear them. There were snippets of lyrics but it wasn’t enough!
Anyway on to the good, I have to say that the best part of this series is the characters and their friendships with one another. That’s what kept me reading.

Just finished the final volume of this series, and it was a very satisfying ending.
It felt like a well paced ending that had laid everything out for the ending in the last volume and tied up the loose threads in this one.
I really like how the characters changed and grew over the course of the series, and I feel like their endings were very appropriate and fitting for their personalities and for the way the series had been going.
Over all the series was very enjoyable and I really liked all the characters and the general plot.
I think in a way, when I get the time, I do want to read the whole thing again, in one go so I can really digest the series, but I don't think my opinion of the series would lessen by doing this.
It is a series I would be likely to recommend to others.

This ending was so disappointing (spoilers ahead so don't read further if you don't want it to be ruined). I mean I'm glad the band got back together and managed to do a concert at the summer music festival and play on the giant main stage finally, which took up about half of the manga getting through that, but I am unhappy that Nino choses Momo to end up with (I frankly didn't think he was worth her time, despite my love of meganes and the fact he reminded me of my favorite one from OHSHC Kyoyo Ootori) and Yuzu to do music with forever. I mean they end up close friends but Yuzu needed her and was actually in love with her, whereas I was never sure if Momo actually was past when he was a little kid. Recommended for ages 14+, 3 stars.

"I'm shaking. The thrill of our return, the unexpected possibilities, the roar of the crowd... It's all blending together into the most wonderful noise."
Ah, the finale! This series has so many things I love about bands, concerts, and the way rock 'n roll can make you feel forever young! The chemistry of the entire cast was great. I'll miss reading about them.
It makes me a little sad that "Nosatsu Junkie" (another manga by the same creator) was never finished in English translation. Someone, please pick it up and release it. Because it was pretty special too.
Now I have the manga blues, like after a great summer concert ends. Electrified by the experience, but wanting one more song...
No encore?
Ah, the finale! This series has so many things I love about bands, concerts, and the way rock 'n roll can make you feel forever young! The chemistry of the entire cast was great. I'll miss reading about them.
It makes me a little sad that "Nosatsu Junkie" (another manga by the same creator) was never finished in English translation. Someone, please pick it up and release it. Because it was pretty special too.

Two times I stopped myself from crying, in total. Its probably nostalgia actually. Feels like a while ago, when I started this series & now it's all over. I mean, it's not completely over mind you, because after finishing the series, I'll be watching the anime adaption, but... it's over in the literal sense of the books. I don't know what to think or feel, in terms of the way the story ended. I guess, Nino was always gonna end up with Momo, because she started out with him, but I guess as always, with choosing between second lead & main, I still hoped somehow she'd choose yuzu. But, it was never gonna be. I'm just happy also, that every character got what they wanted.

I listened to the music when reading this manga and I felt like I was at their concert watching them play. It was so emotional. And when my ship sailed, the tears that was threatening to spill over finally did and the emotions running through me was so great. And as I was reading the last few pages Wednesday beauty was coming to an end, which was the perfect song to end this masterpiece of a manga series. I hope everyone else that made it this far loved it was much as I did ❤ even if their ship didn't sail 😜

This is the final volume in the Shojo series Anonymous Noise. This is a story about a group of high school students who are brought together (and perhaps driven apart) by music, and their big secret that they are actually part of a real band. Their band personas are inspired by Alice in Wonderland which was also an extra detail that I really enjoyed.
As this is a Shojo series, the ending wrapped up predictably but I really enjoyed watching the characters grow and seeing things play out. Maybe it's time to watch the anime now!

Fiiiiiiinally finished this series, and I’m actually really glad I went back to it after forgetting all about it for several years. Even though part of me dislikes how things end up (I would 100% pick Yuzu over Momo too!), something about it also just feels…really kind of perfect.
Well worth a read if you like band drama, weirdly thrilling rock festival performances, and some pretty major character growth. I probably won’t read this again, but dang, is a lot of it going to stick with me anyway!

My final thoughts on the series now that it's completed...
Great story, art, and fully realized characters, the only problem was the pacing. The series started strong then fell into repetition for far too long in the middle, only to finally pick up in the last two volumes. If the story were to be tightened up four or five volumes could have been cut easily. The anime was able to keep that pace, here's to hoping they decide to finish it.
