Goodreads Synopsis:

Not everyone is as quick on the draw as Hori and Miyamura when it comes to love. Ever the trustworthy friend, Ishikawa has seen the couple through thick and thin, but his own heart seems to be taking a more meandering road to romance. Having realized that he and Yoshikawa might be more than "just friends," Ishikawa is now stuck attempting to navigate the murky waters between friendship and love. But one thing he does know is that the time he spends with Yoshikawa, however mystifying, is special in its own right...

Review:

The final chapter of this volume sums up Hori and Miyamura's relationship really well, I think. They have rather different perspectives, and wants at times, but they go along with it. They accept what the other wants rather easily, and they work together really well. Hori is odd, can be demanding, and Miyamura does what he can for her, just as she does for him.
Tooru and Yoshikawa are taking slow steps closer, while still in the friend stage. But most of this volume focuses on the odd relationship between the group. They're welcoming Yanagi in, and I like him. He's a sweet underclassman. And the guys are still too close for Hori's comfort. And Shuu has a younger sister, who he's rather protective of.
Aside from that, there's a lot of cuteness between Hori and Miyamura. I just love them so much.
I almost wish this were a more mature series, just so we could see more of their romance. They're just perfect.
