this was absolutely adorable. yuri boldly—and wholeheartedly—confesses her feelings to the quiet and reserved keiichiro, and from there, their dynamic becomes an absolute joy to watch. keiichiro is someone who tries to follow the rules, especially those set by his strict family, while yuri is the kind of girl who’s constantly (and charmingly) pushing against them.
at first, yuri thinks she’s the only one invested—she’s the one craving physical affection, initiating all the excitement in the relationship. but over time, keiichiro proves that he’s just as devoted. he may not be loud about it, but he consistently finds clever loopholes in the rules to show his love and fight for their relationship in his own way.
sweet, funny, and full of heart, hayaku shitai futari captures the push-and-pull of two very different people learning how to meet in the middle—and falling deeper in love as they do.
We see a lot more of Keiichiro's older brother in this volume. He's trying to assist Yuuri & Keiichiro to the best of his abilities.
I'm glad that Yuuri was able to help the two brothers reconcile.
Also, imagine learning how to dance the waltz in a short amount of time, only to find out that the party was more of a club 😅😅😅 I pity Yuuri but it's refreshing to see her take it in stride.
We're so close to him turning 18! In this volume, we get a lot of back and forth between the two. She has such hilarious delusions while he's too logical. Also, getting to learn about the brother and their rift was adorable. I don't want to spoil it but I cannot wait for the next two volumes.
