Review:
Valentine's comes and goes, and Hana continues to worry about her
relationship with Takane. She likes him, but she doesn't want to
change anything or show her feelings, and so she decides that she
needs to make Takane think about her and fall for her. If he starts
relating her to common items and places, then he'll start to think of
her all the time. It's progress, apparently.
I really love the struggle and banter between these two. They both
clearly like each other, but they're being stubborn about it. There's
a sudden change for Hana in this volume, as her family is suddenly
given a new opportunity to move into a much bigger house, not too far
from where they live now. Given the surprise at the end (though not
actually surprising), I'm curious to see what that means for them
next. This could be a really fun development, I think.
This series has probably become one of my favorites at this point, and I
always get excited when a new volume arrives. It's just so much fun.
