They're together!! Yahoo!
Love that there's still angst despite the confession. It was just so pure and innocent—they're so polite with each other and I love it like that. There are 2 types of fictional relationshipsvin shojo mangas, no? The ones who go beyond boundaries, and the ones who won't even cross the lines. And this book fits with the latter. I'm seriously hoping for huge development, but I appreciate the slow progress despite them being together finally.

August 14, 2022I love our main characters. They are so adorable. Thank goodness they're trying to be courageous!
I also really love the special chapter at the end of the volume. It's about Kaneko-kun! He's such an astute sweet guy who genuinely enjoys seeing other people happy. I love him.

it's pretty slow burn but surprisingly not frustrating at all... they may eat their words at times but always muster up the courage to speak up about their feelings when it matters the most. just really soft and pleasant vibes

El amor de Mobuko es más cuqui en cada tomo que leo. No puedo evitar querer todavía más a sus personajes, por lo mucho que se esfuerzan por cambiar, por ser valientes a la hora de mostrar sus emociones.
En este cuarto tomo Irie y Nobuko por fin dan el paso. Es un tomo lleno de sentimientos, donde las amistades cobran mucha importancia a la hora de dar ese paso adelante y ponen su granito de arena con sus consejos. Me ha encantado ver como la relación de amistad entre Irie y Kaneko va evolucionando, como Irie cada vez confía más en Kaneko para contarle sus problemas y pedir ayuda. Lo mismo con la pareja principal, que va evolucionando pasito a pasito y son super adorables.
Si os gustan los mangas en los que el romance se cuece poco a poco dadle una oportunidad.

All the feels were felt, I was literally squealing.
the pacing here is so perfect and the characters feel so fresh. You just really want to root for all of them

4.5 stars. I hope there is more, but this ended well. I thought it was cute and enjoyable. Very sweet and light.

Progression finally!
It was nice to finally see Tanaka and Irie take the next step. But the very slow burn and the anxiousness feels more at the forefront rather than their feelings for each other. But hopefully as their relationship grows, it will start to overshadow that soon.

This series is a fine read if you need something light and inoffensive, but it’s definitely the first off my list of manga I’m following if I need to drop one for some reason.
To beat the usual dead horse for this series, I can safely say without hyperbole that entire civilizations could rise and fall and these two wouldn’t have made it to first base.

- 3.25 stars#
- my ratings are slowly going up, i really like their dynamic in their relationship and the way they are kind of growing together. the side characters are also really great, and the structure of the story (current time, dual pov, flashbacks) is really nice.

The main couple-to-be do interact in a cute way, but man is it a slow progression! This lead-up makes Kimi ni Todoke’s romantic pace look like a speedway!

花了四集二十話才在一起，從篇幅來看應該是月刊，也就是說追連載不休刊的話也要快兩年，真是急死讀者了

So, finally, the time has come!
Feelings are expressed. It's now out the open, how they both feel about each other. There's no going back now! And it couldn't happen to a nicer couple. I just adore them both. It tears at my heart, to see them both so in love, yet struggling so hard to try & say how they feel to each other. It looks, however, like they've finally rounded a corner towards a solid foundation. I see good things in the future, for these two. Art, simplistic, yet it totally fits. Dialogue, very real, very good. Characters, believable, likeable, adorable.

So the last volume ended on a cliffhanger (relative to the series, which deals in micro-level interactions between characters, and it was nice to be able to go straight into this volume where the exchange is finished but the angst uncertainty continues a while longer. In fact, even at the point where it would have been resolved in most books, Tanaka and Irie are still skittish and nervous and achingly awkward. Still very sweet and slooooow burn. I’m loving it.

First of gotta say Harukawa has my respect that Boi the best friend anyone could have and puts others' happiness first before his because he likes the people and because that's just how he is.

These two are just so adorable and cute. The way they asked for help from their friends to see if they should or shouldn't tell each other how they feel. The way he was trying so hard to wait to tell her then he didn't know how to say it. The way she dressed up and finally told him how she felt. Then the work place on how they should act but the way he walked her home after work was just the sweetest. I can't wait to read more of these two...

So cute! it made me cry... For reals!
Love this manga cannot wait to continue it. It has so many cute experiences with the main characters as the juggle their feels for one another and have the guts to tell each other what they feel. At the end realizing that what they have is more and want to be together. Cannot wait to see their happy moments and there struggles in their relationship.

The Big Confession Time!
Another great story by Tamura! This is a sweet story about two
young couples trying to find their way to each other! It’s never easy to put your heart out there and take a chance if the feeling is mutual! One of the main characters did just that and it was done brilliantly by the author how it was played out! I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did! Off to the next book!😉

Our sweet and shy couple have finally confessed and they are finally happily together. I thought their date and confession was so sweet especially Irie who was worrying about the confession but it turns out it was Tanaka who actually did it. I’m so proud of her for stepping up and telling him her feelings, I can’t wait for the fifth volume!
August 20, 2023
Wow, que volumen!! Mobuko y Irie son oficial!! Los parejos hablaron con sus amigos, y al que los dos son tan penosos, entendieron sus emoticones de amor, y decidieron a confesar. Me alegré que fue Mobuko quien hablo primero, especialmente cuando miras como se aportó en el príncipe de la seria, y la coraje que ya tiene.

Bu Japonların ultra nazikliği ve içe kapanıklığı insanı acayip yoruyor bu serinin neden böyle uzun olduğunu anladım. İlk 4 cilt iki saftirik insanın birbirine açılmaya çalışmasını okudum Allahım o neydi öyle... bizim kültürümüzden çok farklar ya onlar çok yavaş ya da biz ultra hızlıyız anlayamıyorum.

This volume was so cute!! After volume 4 I was worried about whether there would be any progress with the story and the two main characters but this volume proved me wrong!! I really enjoyed this volume and I can't wait to see how their relationship progresses.
February 3, 2023
MY FAVORITE VOLUME SO FAR! This is such a comforting series and I think more people should read it if you're looking for something light and relaxing! This couple is so sweet and their friends are just as great. I can't wait to read more now that they are officially together!

getting better
It’s so true how well the author depicts how people feel when they first start to like someone and then when you first start to hang out more. I love how real life the actions are in this series.

This was soooo good. Author really showed the complexities hidden in people thinking to make that move that could make or break a relationship. Angst was portrayed in a way that added another layer to the characters decisions.
