Yeah, I knew that wouldn't last. This bracket is spending a lot of time on thinking of the future, but not necessarily resolving it. One character at a time. I'd be happier with it all happening at once rather than these volume break ups by character, but it's a common occurrence in manga--I guess I just want it to get back to the main characters. It's weird having Sawako as only a supporting role.

Ayane and Kent, I have had my heart broken. I literally love Kent to pieces, he is just so adorkable and sweet and caring for Ayane. But I feel like Ayane and I are kinda one in the same. I understand her feelings towards Kent and how she was putting her future first rather than her relationship. Which is a good thing to do, go to the school you want to go to, don't settle for the same one your boyfriend is going to! Ayane-chan is such a powerful character, and I love her for being the one that isn't committing to her boyfriend but to herself.

This entire volume is about Ayane and her long drawn out college/boyfriend storyline and while I'm glad it's finally wrapped up, I was a little bored with this one. It's an important volume for sure but I think I just missed Sawako and Kazehaya and of course Rye and Chizu. Oh well, on to the next!

This one follows Ayane and Kento as they end their relationship. I saw it coming but it still made me emotional. Both of them are genuinely nice people, but sometimes things just don’t work out and you can’t force yourself to feel something for someone else.

I’m glad that Ayane found her courage and is finally doing what SHE wants to do. This volume was honestly really deep and shows how Kimi ni Todoke is a coming of age story as well.

Their song is Midnight Rain by Taylor Swift ⛈️☔️

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I don’t want Pin and Ayane to end up together, but I do see the vision
