Manga Review: Komomo Confiserie, Volume 2, by Maki Minami



Rating (Out of 5): ~4
Publisher: Shojo Beat (VIZ Media)
Release Date: December 1, 2015
Volumes: 5
Spoilers?: No.
Volume: 1. 3.

Goodreads Synopsis:


Now that Komomo’s family is bankrupt, the arranged marriage her father had planned for her is most likely void. With her future now open, Komomo decides to look for love and start dating. Natsu offers himself up to be her suitor, but will Komomo accept him?


Review:

Now that Komomo has made friends with Kaname, her previous bully, they’ve grown close. Kaname is in a similar position as what Komomo was in her previous life, and they’ve bonded over that. Kaname confesses her love to a guy with Komomo’s help, and then they set up a double date.
Komomo has never been on a date before, having believed that she was still in an arranged marriage, and is excited for this new experience. Some things go wrong, but Komomo still keeps her optimism and tough front. Komomo is now wanting to fall in love, even if it’s with Natsu.
I just love Minami’s stories at this point. The way Natsu humors and torments Komomo is so funny to me, and I love his possessiveness over her as well. I also appreciate the way that Komomo stands up for herself and what she believes in. Her strength and honesty is admirable.
I love this series, the humor and the characters and just everything about it. I can’t wait for the next one.
