I continue to enjoy the journey that is Chihayafuru. I continue to grow fond of each character, and continue to admire their determination to their various goals. I am so excited to see how this story develops and continues.

Mizusawa high school karuta club didn’t become No.1. But they did their best performance. After that, they played individual match. Chihaya’s opponent was Shinobu Wakamiya who is a queen of karuta. Chihaya is A-rank but she couldn’t win. She started practicing more harder.

never know about Karuta game before, this manga makes me want to see it

There were some moments I wish we actually got to see like Desk winning his first match or Mashima getting to the finals of his tourney but they just skip out on it and make those off screen. This whole volume sets up the queen who is your standard perfectionist but hey at least there’s a new bar set (until Arata gets the itch to play again)

Challenger accepted. Enter Shinobu Wakamiya.

Now Chihaya really needs to put in the work if she wants to keep playing at the top level.

chihayas first encounter with the queen !!
this is where her growth truly starts and im so happy for it. she really needed this match to lose so that she could learn. im excited to see how she takes this information and grow from it !!

This volume begins with Chapter 24-29.

That's all for now until I hit editing mode...
Ta-ta Pretties!

3 out of 5 ⭐️

A solid volume! It was fun to see Chihaya go against the Queen. It made her dreams feel more tangible and upped the stakes. I also can’t wait for Arata to join competitively again!
