Chapters 54-48
Si vuelvo a leer algo de Karekano nuevamente en el futuro lejano, será solo los volúmenes 11 y 12. Y quizá en el que se conocieron los hermanastros 😛

volumes 11 and 12 follow my least favorite character in this entire series as she falls in love with her stepbrother. of course i despised this.
its just..... really bad..... and it has insane time jumps which make no sense for the plotting of the rest of the story. hated it deeply. but at least volume 13 is supposed to get back to the stuff we came here for??

De nuevo viramos hacia otra nueva pareja, creo que sería incorrecto decir que Yukino y Arima son los protagonistas 🤣

Por finnnnn acabo la historia de Tsubasa y Kazuma. 😧
¡Ayyy! El capítulo dedicado a Rika fue mi favorito de este tomo, no es un personaje que resalte mucho, por lo que es difícil conocerla más pero ahora en su especial fue muy adorable.
¡Ahhhhh! Me encantó.

Kare Kano is a gut-wrenching and wild ride. If you have only seen the anime, then you are missing a lot of the meat of this story. Kare Kano follows the story of Yukino who strives to be an image of perfection. She’s beautiful, is at the top of her class, and seems naturally good at everything she tries. However, this perfection is a complete facade. Yukino’s home life reveals her to be a messy, rude, narcissist, who is obsessed with being the best. Yukino’s obsessive pursuits seem to be fueled by the praise and admiration she receives from those around her, it becomes clear that she has a crippling fear of failure. Meanwhile, her class rival, Soichiro aims for perfection for entirely different reasons. Soichiro’s perfect life aims to conceal his dark past as he tries to make up for the abuse and trauma he faced as a child. He clearly has an overwhelming fear of loss and rejection.
Throughout the story, these two characters’ lives intertwine as they learn one another’s secrets and help one another work through their problems. Each of them grows as individuals separate from one another, but they also grow as friends and eventually a couple. If you have watched the anime, then your perception of this story is probably that it is a romantic comedy. While you are not necessarily wrong, this manga reaches levels of depth and darkness that the anime definitely does not prepare you for. This story tackles topics like self-harm, suicide, domestic abuse, sexual assault, and unwanted pregnancy, and a whole slew of mental health-related issues. While the manga covers much of these topics with noticeable care and sensitivity, I will say that given that the manga ran from the mid-’90s to the early ’00s, its understanding of some of these issues can feel quite dated at times.
There are elements to this story that I think are actively harmful. Specifically, the great length’s to which Yukino attempts to heal Soichiro’s dark past. This establishes a narrative in which a woman’s strength is defined by her ability to stand by her man no matter what. Unfortunately, that kind of storytelling has real-world consequences no matter how realistic the depiction is in this case. While it is not at the forefront of the story-telling, this manga also perpetuates the idea that girls should pursue older men; that they have more to offer and are simply more suitable partners than more age-appropriate options. This is a sentiment that I absolutely do not agree with, and I believe it to be a harmful trope.
That being said, while this story is quite dark at times it has an undeniable honesty and relevancy to the narrative. In many ways, it feels realistic, even if it is uncomfortable, which is probably why so many manga readers still flock to this series years after its publication. If you liked Fruits Basket or Mars, then I think you would enjoy Kare Kano. I think Fruits Basket does a better job unpacking different kinds of trauma, especially in regards to toxic masculinity. However, for better or worse, Kare Kano never relies on metaphor or fantasy to soften the blow of hard-hitting topics and in that way feels all too real in its delivery.

Kisah Tsubasa dan Kazuma berlanjut ... Penyelesaian masalahnya SO SWEET deh. Kuharap mereka berdua bahagia.
"Dalam diriku, ada dua cinta yang berbeda. Cintaku pada musik, dan cintaku pada Tsubasa. Kalau aku memilih salah satu, maka jiwaku akan mati."
--Kazuma
Selain hubungan Tsubasa-Kazuma, menarik juga menyimak bagaimana ayah dan ibu mereka menyikapi masalah cinta anak-anaknya ini. Mereka santuy banget!
"Tsubasa-chan yang menolak untuk jadi orang dewasa tak bisa bereaksi ... terhadap Kazuma yang semakin lama menjadi semakin dewasa."
--Ibu Kazuma
Di bagian akhir ada kisah menarik tentang Rika Sena yang diam-diam naksir kakak sahabatnya, juga tentang Ushio dan Atsuya (anggota band Yin Yang) ... kocak.

3.5 and maybe if not for a certain something then maybe just barely I would've rounded it up to 4 but I can't give it more than a 3 for its weird incest plot.
The art continues to rock as the Tsubasa and Kazuma sections really let Tsuda draw ethereal moments with Tsubasa and create amazing grungy atmospheres and feels with Kazuma. And I like the exploration of their mental health. But why? Why incest? Literally take it out and it improves.
Other than that it ends with a Rika chapter thats cute but mostly serves to reintroduce the cast as we finally get back to the main plot with next volume.

Today's post is on Kare Kano: his and her circumstances volume 12 by Masami Tsuda. It is the twelfth in her long running series so you need to have read the first eleven to understand the story. It is 208 pages long and is published by Tykoypop. The cover has Ying and Yang Kazuma's band on it. There is no language, no sex, and no violence in this volume. The story is closely following Tsubasa and Kazuma for this volume. There Be Spoilers Ahead.
From the back of the book- Tsubasa's never had much luck with guys--the ones she likes never feel the same way about her. When Kazuma drifts out of her life and focuses on his music career, Tsubasa's heart is broken yet again. Is this tender teen even capable of being loved? Does a rising pop star have room in heart for love and music? For these lovelorn siblings, the answers lie in song.
Review- Still more about Tsubasa and Kazuma but after this volume we go back to Yukino and Siochiro. Tsubasa loves Kazume and he loves her but they do not know what to do. Kazuma feels that Tsubasa just loves him because he is safe. That she does not love him the same way that he loves her. But of course Tsuabasa does but she is just scared because it is a grown-up feeling and that scares her. They work through it and are engaged at the end of the volume. The real important thing that happens is the time jump. We are going to be continuing the story at the end of high school. I have no idea where this is going to go after because it will not be a high school romance for much longer. More drama to come.
I give this volume a Five out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this book with my own money.

This book was actually pretty interesting. It is comedy and a romance. It is about a guy who falls in love with his stepsister and he leaves school to pursue his music career. She thinks that he left her and chose music over her, but in reality all his music was about her. She is devastated and tries to forget about him. in the end she goes to one of his concerts and she realizes their fate. They were meant to be together. I enjoyed reading this book and I thought it was a bti creepy that they were sort of related and in love. It was kind of like Romeo & Juliet.

An interesting conclusion to the tension between Tsubasa and Kazuma. The fact that Tsubasa couldn't hear Yin and Yang's music - I wonder how much control that took... I also like the admission of the different type of love they felt for each other. Safety is such an important thing when it comes to your heart. Why would you let someone make you so vulnerable?

Actual Rating : I don't know, but it's less than 1, anyway
Incest. Complexes. And then a huge leap forward that makes no sense whatsoever. And, of course, absolutely no mention of the main characters. *sighs* One more volume like this, and the rest of the series is going into the trash bin.

A love story that revolves around highschool students but remains interesting to span 20+ volumes. The art is unique and comical.

such a nice ending to this arc. it really kept up my hopes that the series won't end up being some big rain cloud, down pouring on any possibility of any happy feeling ever appearing.
