A romance of convenience between two college women soon becomes the real thing.
Shy Miwa has always dreamed of finding love, but living in small-town Japan made finding the right match difficult—especially since she likes girls! Even going away to college didn’t seem to help, until one day her outgoing classmate Saeko suggests they might as well start dating each other since it’s not like either of them has other options.
Trying to keep their failing relationship going was putting a huge strain on both Miwa and Saeko. Now that they’ve broken up, they can focus on being friends and all the things the future might have in store. And for Miwa, that means finally telling Shiho how she feels. But is she ready for what her confession might unlock?
I really admire Tamifull’s dedication to make these characters real and nuanced, even if that means getting their hands dirty in making some truly messed-up scenarios. I’m shocked that this series has gone in the direction it has, and I’m eager to see where it leads
2.5
The first half was great! I loved it. I thought this volume would finally get more stars. Like maybe 4 even.
The trip to Shiho was nice and I also loved the chapter where Rika and Miwa talked about romance in public. I also loved that kiss.
But well... the second half... gosh, no.
I really dislike Saeko. It was so nice not having her on the pages when Miwa visited Shiho. So refreshing.
And then she’s back...
At first it was nice how she took care of Miwa. And her food looked delicious.
But the end... ugh nah...
Miwa isn’t any better in the 2nd half tho. Like wtf happened? She can’t be that depressed over what Shiho told her, right?? There must’ve been another thing that happened on her way home.
