Review:
All but the last chapter is focused on Megumu and Aoi. The reunion
happens pretty fast, and then we get to see what actually happened
during the tsunami. After that, Aoi gets to meet his little
half-brother, and accept what happened with his mother and what she
did. It's very emotional for all of them. It is nice to see Aoi's
family grow, though.
At one point, there's this super cheesy moment where Mitsuru and
Azusa take control at Azusa's father's business, because he flounders
a moment. Just bleh.
After that, we see Mitsuru and Azusa helping out with the wreckage. I
do admit that I like seeing the realistic aspect of the aftermath,
with people helping with all the horror. Mitsuru and Azusa get to
help an older lady clean up her home. Mitsuru and Megumu's dad is
also away while helping with everything, getting people to safety and
helping clean up. It's a sweet scene when he gets to return home to
their mother.
Megumu and Aoi also get officially married, though they're waiting to
do the actual ceremony. This is not surprising to anyone, I'm sure.
By the end of the volume it seems like everything is almost done wrapping up. The
next and final one will probably be all over-done happy endings.
