Meanwhile, the feelings that Momo has been hiding for so long seem to have reached a breaking point!

Review:
For a while there, Nino is struggling between Momo and Yuzu.
Thakfully Yuzu talks his way out of what he did. In this volume, we
pretty much find out that everyone is lying about their true
feelings.
Nino gets to hear about the story of In No Hurry's creation. How they
all met as kids, and how they started the band. It connects with Nino
herself, of course, which is a surprise to no one but Nino herself. I
did like seeing how Haruyoshi grows into himself, too, and his side
of everything. We get to know Kuro and Miou a little more, too, which
is nice. I feel like I know them better than I did, as well as can
see their relationship with each other better now.
I'm still wondering what is up with Yuzu's mother, though.
Aside from that, Nino gets to accept what is going on between her and
Momo. She's struggling to find out why she sings anymore, and has to
come to terms with what happened and how to move on from it. The
competition between the two bands is definitely heating up now,
though. They're all trying to prove something to each other and
themselves.
It'll be interesting to see what happens in the concert in the next
one.
