Yeah, there's actual progression in this volume! Komi is fully aware of her feelings for Tadano, Manbagi is trying to get closer to bland-boy extraordinaire Tadano too, and there's a sports festival and a play. This volume was charming.

3.5 ( )

One star each for the last five pages, overflowing with immense love and intense heartbreak. There are other pages in the book too, but they are just filled with a roster of nearly every character who has ever been in the series (plus a few new ones) and a couple of festivals (sports and cultural). It's all good, but none of it compares to. those. last. five. pages. ( )
